Chapter two

Hogwarts express

Lily Hugged her mother for the Hundredth time, holding on as long as possible before stopping from fear of the tears that had welled up in the back of her throat coming out.

"Will you be okay at home alone?" she asked her mother

"I won't be alone dear," Her mother replied

"You know what I mean mum!"

"Lily, I'll be fine" She assured

"Okay… but promise me you'll let me know if anything happens" Lily asked

"I'll be fine" her mother repeated

"Promise me mother!" Lily demanded

"I promise, now go before your train leaves" Lily smiled at her mother and hugged her once more before she boarded the Hogwarts express. Staying at the window, smiling and waving to her mother as the train left and she became so small that she doubted that was even her mother anymore. Lily sighed watching the trees whizzing past her, praying to god that her farther didn't do anything whilst Lily was away, 'I'll find out at Christmas' she thought to herself before finally turning away from the window

Half an hour later Lily was sitting alone in a carriage compartment, reading through her new 7th year Charms book.

It was nice to be alone, Unusual though, as most compartments were full up with young witches and wizards. However Lily was in the 'Heads' Compartment and head boy, who was yet to be revealed, hadn't shown.

Lily ate a sliver of Pumpkin pasty, before discarding it was waste and returning to her book, she was a big reader and once she got started in a book she would be completely drawn in, it was an escape method for her whilst she was at home, blocked out everything, even her annoying sister. And as per usual Lily had become part of the book, not noticing the handsome, young wizard standing at the door of the carriage watching her with a cheeky grin on his face. He had mess black hair that looked as if it had never seen a comb, and a gorgeous complexion.

"So your head Girl" Lily's head shot up and she glared at the boy before her.

"What do you want, Potter? Lily asked, Potter smirked and pointed to a badge on his robes. With the words "HEADBOY" In big letters

Lily stared in disbelief,

"You! How did you make head boy?" she asked

"I was about to ask the same question to you" James Potter replied, Sitting down and closing the door,

"This will be an interesting year, Evans" James smirked

"Whatever, just stay out of my way Potter, and I'll think about not turning you into a Broomstick" she retorted, returning to her book.

"Who's head Girl?" Sirius asked as he walked into the Hate filled Cabin. He stopped dead upon seeing Lily.

"YOU! WHAT? No fair!" He added

"Get out Black! This is a no go zone for you" Lily said, she turned to James "Just because your head boy, do not think that gives your marauders a 'get out of jail free' card!" she snapped turning back to Sirius "Out, Black!" she repeated.

"Sure thing, After all, Princess gets" he laughed, giving a mocking bow then leaving the cabin, Lily shot James an Evil look making him hastily follow his best friend out of danger.

"OUCH!" Sirius said as James joined him and Remus Lupin.

"Tell me about it, a whole year with Evans, I have to practically live with her" James replied, "Remus, will you eat her, please?" He asked

"She can't be that bad" Remus said

Sirius and James looked at each other, and then back at Remus Nodding. Remus simply shook his head then walked off,

"This could be fun James, A year of pranks that you can get us out of" Sirius smiled,

"You herd what Evans said, if she catches you I won't be able to do a thing. Any other girl… I could persuade, but Evans…" James stopped thinking slightly, Starting off down the hall corridor

"Oh come on James! She so wants you" Sirius said following him

"Yeah, like a hole in the head!" He replied
