~*~Chapter Two~*~

A few weeks passed, and finally, Lily and Sev got their acceptance letters to Hogwarts. Lily ran all the way to Severus' house and excitedly showed him her letter.

"You were right! Oh, I can't believe it! We should go to the lake, and you can tell me about everything I need for school!" squealed Lily. Laughing, Sev accepted.

"Look Lil, we have to get a wand! Aren't you excited?" Severus asked, his black eyes on Lily's brilliant green ones.

"Ohmygosh, really!? I can't wait to get a wand and do some magic! I am so excited!" Lily, once again, squealed.

Severus replied with a "Calm down Lil. It's not the wands you should be excited about. It's the magic you actually do with the wand that you will have with you forever." At his mention of forever, Lily looked at Sev with a questioning look on her face and in her astounding green eyes. He explained his usage of forever. "When you pick your wand, and vice-versa, you have it with you forever. Unless, of course, it snaps in to tow. Then you have to get a new one. Wands and wizards are like glasses and eyes. Your eyes need a certain type of glasses; they are unique. Just like a wand. No one in the entire world can have to same wand as you."

"But how do the glasses relate to a wand? And what do you mean by vice-versa?" Lily asked, still confused. Severus sighed, and explained everything, but with more detail.

"Your eyes need a certain type of glasses; they are only one of its kind. Just like a wand. No one in the entire world can have to same wand as you. Even if you have two wands that are made of the same materials, they will have different lengths, textures and they will be good for different types of magic. And by vice-versa, everyone says 'Oh, I'm going Diagon Alley to pick out a wand' but its actually the wand that picks you. Diagon Alley is the London Wizard village. Do you understand now?"

"Yea! Thanks for clearing it up! Have you ever done magic?" Lily asked, answered, and exclaimed at the same time.

"Sure, plenty of times. But it's my mum that does the most magic in our house. I didn't get out of bed yesterday, and she turned it into a very large and uncomfortable bed-shaped boulder!" exclaimed Sev. When he saw the laugh in Lily's eyes and on her mouth, he couldn't help but laugh too.

They then spent two hours discussing everything there was to discuss about Hogwarts. The two then went for a long and refreshing swim in the lake.

"You would think we're living on the sun, it's so hot!" exclaimed both Lily and Severus, at the exact same time. They looked at each other, and burst out in guffaws.

After swimming, diving and splashing around for about forty minutes, Lily casually looked at her watch that she never took off. She jumped, if that's possible in the water, about four feet.

"_________! (insert curse word of choice)" Lily yelled "I'm late. Again! I really must break the habit of giving my dad heart attacks! I really should go now, sorry. But I promise, we'll hang out by the lake everyday possible! Bye Sev!"

She jumped up (A/N They already changed. Not together. Separately. In the nearby woods.) and collected her belongings. She then skipped off to her house, but before doing that hugged and kissed Severus on the check. Even when she was out of sight, Sev still stood in the same position in which she hugged him, hand to his check where Lily's lips where two minutes ago. It burned.
