A/N ok I don't know how good this will be as I've not done any HP fics, so here we go Chapter two and thank you for all the wonderful reviews J I'm glad you like it so far so I won't torture you with more waiting. So here goes. Oh and sorry for the misspelled word.

Chapter One

Harry dropped the diary in shock. His mum had hated his dad? How could that be. Several possibilities raced through Harry's mind. The ideas intrigued him and he picked up the diary to read more.

August 10th 1975,

I hate James Potter.

Honestly… that…that boy! And he's Head boy! That irrational…immature… AND I HAVE TO WORK WITH HIM… because I am Head girl. It figures, I work hard to get here and he rides in on his good-looks and popularity. So he's good a Quidditch player, who cares?!

Apparently everyone.

And that's not even the worst part! He and his marauders, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin, are always getting into trouble AND DUMBLEDORE MADE HIM HEAD BOY! Technically the little boy… what is his name… Peter? Yes Peter Pettigrew, Technically Peter is a marauder, but only so that James and his… his cronies… can use his adoration to make him do there dirty work. Several times Peter has almost been expelled because of some stunt James or Sirius had put him up to, while the escaped with impunity.

Only one good thing has occurred thus far this year. James is no longer asking me out EVERY SINGLE DAY. James Potter who uses his popularity, uses his looks, to get what ever girl he wants. I wonder if it drives him crazy that there remains one girl at Hogwarts unconquered by the magnificent James Potter… Honestly I believe that is the only reason he's been after me so much… so that he can say he dated every girl at Hogwarts in his seven years there.

Drat! I have a meeting with James and the prefects in seven minutes…

Lily Marie Evans

Harry stared at the page on shock. How on earth had his mum and dad gotten together than if she hated him so much? He had known the hadn't gotten together until seventh year, but he had not known that his mother had hated James so much.

However, something about the forcefulness of her words did not ring true. Perhaps it was the hasty slant of the writing. So Harry decided to skip forward some days. Most of what was there were records of school stuff and duties as Head girl anyway.

Mum was just like Hermione, Harry thought with a smile.

Then he found something interesting, a more toned down and melancholy entry.

August 31st 1975,

I have decided to no longer believe in "Happily-Ever-After." I've heard those words many times from the Fairytales my dad used to read. I had so many dreams of my knight in shining armor coming to rescue me, but after a while my parents taught me the difference between fantasy and reality, and when my father died, when I was seven, I gave up these dreams almost entirely and began to focus on my studies, keeping my books as only a distraction, a refuge from the coldness of reality.

Then I received a strange letter and I learned that magic was real and I was a witch. Now seven years later, those fractured dreams I secretly held onto for so long are completely shattered. No matter if the creatures of fantasy… Dragons, Pixies, Unicorns… are real, my knight in shining armor does not exist, I have no happily-ever-after and now I find I have no mother. The Dark Lord has taken her from me. I am an orphan, a no body.

Lily Marie Evans

Harry stared at the page in shock. His mum had thought those things. He watched as a tears fell to the paper and he wondered briefly if his mum's tears had fallen onto that page also. His thoughts, however, were interrupted by the thunder of someone's footsteps, running up the stairs to the dormitory.

"Hey! Harry!" Ron called. "Harry, we're gonna be late to Potions if you don't hurry!"

"Yea, I'm coming. No need to hand Snape a reason to take points from Gryffindor, he'll find plenty enough without our making it easy for him." Harry closed the diary and placed it under his pillow, as much as he wanted to learn more about his mother, she would have to wait until after class.

Harry was sure that if Lily had heard that thought she would be smiling.

A/N sorry for the shortness of this chapter, I'm not good with length to my chapters and I'm not sure that this will be a terribly long fic. I just have this wonderful image of how Lily and James get together and after that things are little…er….foggy… so please just bear with me. Thank you for all the wonderful reviews and please NO FLAMES.

Oh… and I promise to write more as soon as I can and with the end of Band season I've had a lot more free time… so hopefully it won't take long.
