During the middle of the summer, Lily received a beautiful trunk from her parents. It was sapphire blue with silver brackets that were studded with sapphires. (A/N hey I said she was rich ya don't expect her to get crappy stuff do ya? Huh?) On August 31, she started to pack. Lily was NOT need I saw it again? She was NOT a last minute person (A/N even though that kinda was last minute but I mean like two seconds before she has to leave that type of thing ya get my drift?) To make sure that nothing was wrinkled, she put all her books on the bottom first, followed by her cauldron and potion ingredients and telescope and stuff like that, on top was her robes and then lying neatly in it's box was her wand. (A/N ya probably wondering why the servants aren't doing this right? Well I'll tell ya neway! See they aren't supposed to know she's a witch so she has to do it herself) By the time she finished packing, it was time for her to go to bed.
"Lily darling it's time to wake up" Kenneth called up the stairs to her daughter. "You have to leave for London in 30 minutes, I suggest you get up and get ready!"
"I'm coming, I'm coming" Lily called dragging herself out of bed to get ready. By the time Lily was satisfied with the way she looked, it was time to go, and she had had no time for breakfast whatsoever. "But Dad I'm hungry!"
"Too bad Lily! You should've gotten dressed faster!"
"But I have to look good for my first day!"
"Lily I don't want to hear it if you don't leave right now, you'll miss your train, by the way do you have the train ticket?"
"Yes Dad" Lily held up the train ticket for him to see
"Good now give me and your mother a kiss and be sure to write to us often"
"Yes dad"
"Come on Lily, Fred has already packed your trunk into the car. You really need to get going. Here" Kenneth handed her about 20 galleons "this ought to tie you over until Christmas. If you need anymore just write us and we'll send you some. We don't want our beloved Lily without any money. Be good I love you! Now get going!"
"Bye mum bye dad!" Lily called out the car window as it rolled down the driveway.
"Lily, above all else…KEEP- OUT- OF- TROUBLE!!!"
Lily didn't respond because she knew that one of the first things that she was going to do at Hogwarts; cause trouble. Fred drove her to King's Cross alone because her parents didn't like those teary good-byes. During the ride Lily thought to her self about all the trouble that she could cause at school, what so wondered most was, is there going to be anyone there to cause trouble with? Lily arrived at King's Cross at about 10:16, Fred helped her find a trolley to put her trunk on, made sure she was okay and then bid her goodbye. Lily rolled her trunk into the main part of the station to see if she could find platform 9 ¾. She figured it would be either at the end or between platforms 9 and 10.
At the Malfoy house, Serevus and Lucius were in the process of convincing their parents to let them go to King's Cross alone. "Come on Dad" Lucius complained "Just let us go by ourselves! Nothing is going to happen and remember last year? How crowded it was with all those mudbloods? Do you really want to go through that hassle again?"
"Yea Mr. Malfoy think about it. We are old enough and responsible enough to go by ourselves! We can use flow powder to get there. It's perfectly safe," Snape said backing up Lucius
"Fine fine fine! You boys can go by yourselves I have work to do anyway" Mr. Malfoy gave in and walked away
"I should give you more credit Serevus, you're a lot brighter than I thought!"
"Thanks Lucius, that means a lot coming from you"
"Anytime old pal, now lets go find our little mudblood friend"
After about 15 minutes of searching Lily was ready to give up when two "heroes" came to her rescue…Lucius Malfoy and Serevus Snape.
"Hi. My name is Lucius Malfoy and this is my friend Serevus Snape."
"Hi, my name is Lily Evans. Are you attending Hogwarts too?"
"Yea we're going to be second years," Serevus said
"Really? I'm going to be a first year."
"We kinda figured that by the helpless lost look on your face" Malfoy laughed
"Really? I didn't think I looked that helpless! A little lost maybe but not helpless!"
"Don't worry about it we can help"
"Why thank you"
"We're guessing you need to get onto the platform?"
"Yup" as Lily looked at these two who were trying to help her, she realized that they were both very cute (A/N you are all probably cringing right now but I don't care, in my story, they are hot deal!)
"It's quite simple, all you have to do is run through the barrier between platforms 9 and 10."
"That's it?"
"Yea, pretty simple right? Here all three of us will go together, and then we can find an empty compartment together."
"Sounds like a plan!"
"Okay, ready Lily?"
"Yup"
"Ready Serevus?"
"Yup"
"On the count of three…1…2…3" on the count of three all of them broke into a run and disappeared through the barrier.
(What do you think? Kinda short I know. See before I write about the train ride I needed to know should she have more of a thing for Serevus or Lucius? Don't worry her and James will get together but not until later! Hope you all like it I won't write the next part until I get 10 r/r so sorry for ne one who has a problem with that. Luv all of you who read this it means a lot!)
