Lily Evans-Her story-Part 6
When they entered, Lily looked around, and saw the most wonderful room ever. It was circular, with comfy looking red armchairs, and a few tables for working on. After everyone had looked around for a moment, the prefect told the boys to go one way, and the girls to go another.
Lily followed some girls up a staircase, and into a room with a plaque that said ' First year girls' on it. They entered the room, and all picked a bed. Their stuff was already there, so they all collapsed into their beds, and fell asleep.
The next day, Lily was up by 6:00, and there was only one other person awake, but he was down in the common room. After she got herself ready, Lily headed down to the common room, and saw that one person who was awake. It was James. He was sitting, reading a book on Quidditch, when she snuck up on him. She quietly tapped him on the shoulder, and he jumped. She laughed, and seated herself beside him.
They talked about their classes, and Quidditch, and whether they would try out or not. Lily said that she would try, but since first years weren't allowed brooms, she was sure that she wouldn't make it.
When everyone was finally up, they all walked to breakfast, where Lily ate 5 pancakes. She was starving. In the middle of breakfast, there was a great whoosh, and hundreds of owls came flying in. Lily saw hers coming, but it didn't have anything, so she gave her some orange juice, and she flew away. Then some schedules were handed around, and Lily grabbed hers. "Ooh! We have Charms first! That was the class that I wanted to go to most!"
James said, "Well, I want to go to transfiguration. It sounds cool!!!"
And then Remus added, " I like Defense Against the Dark Arts."
And Sirius said, " I just want to annoy Filch!"
And Lily added, " Oh, Sirius, can I help?"
So James said that he wanted to too, and so did Remus.
After a minute of this, Lily said, "We had better be going. We don't want to be late on our first day!!!"
And so they all trooped out of the Great Hall, and went up the staircase. They suddenly realised that they had no idea where Flitwick's class was. So they looked for a teacher to ask. They saw McGonagall leaving, and so they went and asked her where to go. She gave them directions, and they went to class.
When they got there, Flitwick introduced himself, and started to take roll call. Then, he told them all about charms, and what it could do. Lily was very excited by all of this, and was listening intently. But soon, he was done, they had to go to Transfiguration.
And so they trooped down to McGonagall's room, and the first thing she did was give them a talking to. Then she asked everyone to try and turn a match into a needle. Lily thought that this wasn't a teacher that she wanted to cross, and so she went to work right away.
'This has to be the hardest thing ever' she thought. She tried as hard as she could, but she could not turn that stupid match into a needle. And James could. She looked to him for help, but he was talking to McGonagall, about something.
Finally, it was time to leave, and she told James what a hard time she had had. He gawked, and said that he could do it as easy as pie. This angered Lily, so she just walked on.
Soon enough, it was time for dinner. They were all tired, so they ate, and went upstairs to bed.
