A/N Hi! I want reviews! To the story...R/R.
Shala and Lily, pure geniuses.
It was a warm July night and Shala wanted to sleep. Lily was sitting on her bed wearing a long nightshirt and writing in her diary, so she needed the light. Shala, however, was lying in her bed wearing boxers and a T-shirt, trying to get to sleep. She kept turning over and over. Finally she gave up. She sat up in her bed and glared at Lily, she reached her wand to turn the light off and off it went. Lily scowled in the dark. She reached for her wand to turn it on back on. Shala shielded her eyes from the light, then turned it off again. On, off, on, off, on, off... all night long
"Britain?" Shala opened the door to the cabin. She had just returned from her secret visit to bunk #7.
"The name's Lily."
"Oh, you're here. I thought you were going to see you're old cabin mates."
"I already did."
"Oh." Lily glanced out the window at the blackening sky. Before she could say anything, Shala was on her side of the room, posting up pictures of famous people, all waving or winking at them. Lily, having her mum as an entertainment lawyer, knew most of them... but not all. Outside, the skies had just burst. It was raining cats and dogs outside and the old cabin wasn't prepared. The open window by Shala's bed was causing a breeze that blew down a few of her pictures. Shala was trying unsuccessfully to close the window. Lily ran over and helped her close it. On the floor were a few pictures of singers, bands and athletes.
"Anything ruined?" Lily asked optimistically.
"Only the wonderful Nick Panther." He wasn't in the picture anymore. He was hiding because he had a watermark on his jersey.
Lily looked confused.
"You don't know who Nick Panther is?"
"No...Should I?"
"He's only the best hockey player since Gretzky." Lily sighed. "How far away IS London anyway?"
"30,000 miles, but sometimes it seems a LOT more." Shala smiled.
"How old are you?" Shay asked.
"I'll be 12 on February 20th."
"Really?" Lily nodded. "Me too!"
"Strange..."
"Hey want some oreo's?" inquired Shala.
"Yes, please." Lily plopped down on her own bed. "This is really weird, but my mum and I...we eat them with peanut butter!"
"That is weird!" Shala said, pulling out a bag of oreo's and...a jar of Peanut butter. "So do I!"
"Really?"
"Yah, it's the only way to eat them!"
"I know, I only wish my mum was here too..."
"Not your dad?"
"No...He and mum divorced when I was one, and I don't remember anything about him." Lily ran a hand through her waist-length hair.
"I'm sorry."
"What's YOUR mum like?"
"I don't have a mom... All I have is a picture."
"Same with my dad."
"Yours is probably at least a full picture! Mine's only half!"
"Oh Dear! Mine's only a half too!" Shala ran over to her trunk, grabbing something and pulling it out. The ripped photo clutched to her chest as she walked over to where Lily was sitting. Lily had grabbed the book off her night table; she opened it to a very obvious page and pulled out another ripped photo.
"Show on three." Said Shala.
"One."
"Two."
"Three!" they said together. They both put out the pictures; they fit together like pieces of a puzzle. Both people looked much happier to see each other.
"That's my mum!" exclaimed Lily.
"That's my dad!"
"Shala, this means we're like sisters!"
"Lily, we're like twins!"
That night, they pushed their beds together. It was almost midnight and neither one could sleep. They kept asking each other questions.
"Lil?"
"Yes?"
"I really want to meet mom."
"Well I want to meet dad." Shala sat up in her bed.
"I just had the most brilliant beyond brilliant idea!" she announced grinning.
"What is it?"
"We should switch places!"
"Shala...I don't know..."
"Come on Lil! We're twins; we can pull it off. Look I can do you already!" She pulled her hair into a ponytail. "The only difference between us is you have no class Ms. Hyper and I do." She did a perfect impression of Lily.
"Pretty good, look I can do you..." She slouched a little and grinned. "Hey Britain!"
"Lily, we can do this."
"I don't know Shay..."
"I want to meet mom SOOOO much!"
"I feel the same about dad! Come on, my dad is the fabulous Harry Potter and I've never met him!"
"I see your point, so how about it?"
"I still don't know..."
"PLEASE."
"Fine!"
For the rest of camp, they tried to learn everything about each other. From where they slept, to what each-others favorite food was, to house plans and special things. Shala cut Lily's hair to match her own using magic because Lily didn't trust her with out it. She also pierced her ears because Shala had pierced ears and Lily didn't. They learned what spells and other magical things were used around the house, so the other one wouldn't be surprised. They taught each other spells and curses to help them out at each-others homes as well.
It was now the end of camp and both of them were standing by the main gate with their duffels.
"Say hi to Grandfather for me!" Said Lily, talking about Sirius, who lived with Hermione and Lily, his god-granddaughter, whom he treated like his own granddaughter. He moved in with Hermione because his job as the Hogwarts DADA professor kept him in England, and he needed a home every summer.
Give Ginny a hug for me!" Ginny Weasley was Shala's nanny, as her dad didn't have much time when she was little, he had asked his old friend to take care of her. He actually worked with the IWSS (International Wizard Secret Service) but his cover was owning a vineyard. He really was a billionaire, which was a well-known fact. They smiled at each other.
"Lily Granger!" Elizabeth called over the kids. Shala looked over at Lily as she started to walk towards the car. She stopped and ran back. She gave her sister a big hug and whispered in her ear.
"Good luck Lil! Call me soon."
"Good luck Shay." Was the reply. Shala started to walk to 'Lily Granger's' car. She plopped in the back seat and looked back at her sister. She gave her a frightened smile and crossed her fingers mouthing 'Good Luck.' Lily nodded.

Shala sat in first class of a very large plane. She was looking out the window to the ocean below. On her lap were the house plans, the people's names, everything she had learned in the past few days.
"Oh god I hope she likes me." She whispered o herself; Lily's voice came into her head saying 'Of course she will.'

Lily stepped off the plane and browsed the tar-mat to find her father. 'There he is!' she thought. He was looking at her, grinning the grin she and Shala had inherited. He looked the same as he had in the picture. Same messy black hair, green eyes but he didn't have glasses now. She smiled at him and ran over.
"Hey Shala!"
"Dad!" She jumping into his outstretched arms and gave him a huge bear hug.
"I missed you Shay."
"Missed you too, dad!"
A/N This one's kinda short, no? Lily's going to meet her dad's girlfriend in the next one so... that's to look forward too. Review and if you would like to be my editor, please tell me! Thanks to my wonderful BETA reader, Krys, you're great. R/R.
