Hey everyone! It's been a long time since I last wrote a story and posted it. I hope it is worth it to send this story.

Disclaimer: If I owned Harry Potter, why the hell would I be writing fanfiction?! Instead I'd hurry and write book five !

Anyway, on with the story!

**********

My name is Lily Evans. Pretty ordinary, huh? Well, my name may be ordinary but I'm not. My name isn't who I am. My parents could've called me Daisy, and I still would've been the same little redheaded, hot-tempered girl that I am. Some people like to say Lily is a flower name. I'm no flower. Other people like to say Evans is a muggle name. I'm no muggle.

I don't even think there's a word that can describe me. I'm somewhat weird, normal, kind, mean, powerful, vulnerable, depressed and cheerful, all at the same time. The only thing I know is that I am me, whatever that is.  

So this is my life, sometimes simple and other times as complicated as I am.

I was born during summer. Well, it was almost fall, but that doesn't matter, does it? Anyway I was born on August 31st 1968. Mom died giving birth to me. Father always said it was my fault and hated me for it. I've always been jealous of Petunia, my sister, because people didn't hate her the minute she was born. It wasn't my case and that's why I always thought of my years before Hogwarts as a living hell. Now I know it wasn't that bad, but tell that to a child that only received a toothbrush every year as a birthday present.

Overall, my life at home was bad. I had what I needed, but nothing more, no toys, and never a hug or a kiss goodnight. I've been mature for a long time, being almost on my own and all.

And then there was that day, probably one of the happiest of my life, when I received my letter. I can remember everything that happened that day in details. I even remember the scent of the parchment and the exact color of the ink. It's a day I'll never forget. The day a nightmare ended and another began.

At that time, I lived in the United-States. However, that didn't stop me from being accepted to Hogwarts. I then learned that magic existed and that I was an even bigger part of it that I could ever have imagined.

So that's it for chapter one, hope you liked it! Review and I'll love you forever! ^^

I know it wasn't long, but I promise the next'll be better! I'm just so tired!

Bye!
