Chapter 2-I Want To Fit In
Lily was up in her room trying to finish up all heromework. Shethe gotup and went ad grabbed a spare piece of parchment so she could write to Destinee.
"Lily dear,could you please come down here"asked Lily's mum (Natalie)
"Yes mama, be down in a sec"Lily replied
She packed up her stuff and ran down the stairs hearing her sis Petunia calling her a freak along the way. She went to the living room seeing her parents talking to a lady and man and their son (oh my god) James Potter.
"Oh Lily, great your here, I would like you to meet Mr Tony Potter, Mrs Alexia Potter and their son-"
"James Potter, i know, i know, he goes to my school"said Lily kind of blushing but didn't make it noticable.
"Okay well they are our new neighbours"Said Mr Evans(Jake)
"Nice to meet you Lily dear"said Alexia
"Yes its a pleasure"smiled Tony
"James"snapped Alexia
"What i already know the girl so why should i shake hands with her"James snapped back.
"hmmmmm alright, well why don't you and Lily go outside while we finish talking to Mr and Mrs Evans asked Alexia.
"Yeah yeah"said James as he walked out with Lily following behind him. He had the same thoughts going through his head 'Why must the most nerdy girl be my neighbour, honestly' where as Lily kept on thinking 'Isn't he just gorgeous, i can't believe he is my neigbour'. They both sat on the grass quite far away from eachother like scared to catch a disease or something or if they sat close it would be te end of the world.They did not speakor ayting but Lily couldn't help herself but glance at him every so often.
"James, i know you hate me and everything but could you promise me something"Lily asked
"What"
"Just promise me you wont fall in love with me"smiled Lily just starin at him waiting for a reply. James just coughed"Don't worry i won'tand i will keep that promise"
"James son we gotta go"called MrPotter He got up and ran over to his parents without saying bye to Lily.
"Bye"she whispered
'I hope he can keep his promise'Lily thought to herself Lily ran upstairs and into her bedroom and found Destinees owl Mercury sitting on her bed.She always loved Mercury because he was a beautiful red like her hair and had nice yellow eyes.She took the letter offhim and sat down and started reading.
