A/n this is part of another story I've written but you really don't need to have read that at all really to understand this story, in fact if you read that you'll know how this story ends. I think I'm confusing people.
This is a Severus/OC fic BUT the other character is mentioned by JK it's just I don't think anyone has looked at her in this way- no it's not Minerva *shudders*
When I was 14 I lived in a normal family. I had 2 great parents who loved me, and a sister who I got on with. My favourite books were the Narnia series and Lord of the Rings. Magic was great, why wouldn't it be? You could do all of these things that no one else could. You go against all the laws of Physics and every one thinks you're special. If you asked me did I believe in magic I would give you a point blank "no". Magic wasn't real science proved it, the only magic I believed in was the magic in the trees and so on and so forth.
There were no fairies, trolls, hobbits, talking lions, witches, wizards, elves, magic broomsticks they were all just for fun that was up until the summer of 1972 when my sister was accepted into Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. Since then life was all one big happy roll in the mud.
My parents loved her I mean who wouldn't? I loved her as well but the magic made me green with Jealousy but jealousy was normal right? Then my parents died it wasn't her fault they dies in a car crash I just thought, she's a witch she's be able to save them but no she wasn't powerful enough I suppose it was then that we stopped talking we went to live with out grandmother and that was it. A few years later I get a letter saying that she was pregnant, that was a surprise my grandmother would have killed her if she wasn't engaged.
The married had a kid so did I. The person I married he was down to earth and believed in no nonsense just the kind of person I needed. He did of course find out about her but he set it aside, he knew I wasn't like that. I changed myself so that I fitted with his ideals, I didn't like magic I became a housewife he didn't think I had brains. The fact that my IQ was 123 and that I got A's and B's in my A levels didn't perturb him.
Then one morning I wake up and find a baby at my front door, a baby and not any baby my little sister's baby. So I learned to hate him as well he was everything Lily was. He was a beautiful baby had the same eyes as Lily, I'd always loved Lily's eyes I had the same colour as well, well that was until one year when some of her friends came over, they changed my eye colour but never bothered to fix it. I suppose I've got used to it now though.
Harry did end up going to Hogwarts, though from what I've heard he's had a rough ride. It was a big surprise for me when I found out Lily was famous and other to add to the list and then I found out Harry was famous and I wanted to hate him, but then one day and owl came to our house with a letter for Harry I took it because I didn't want the neighbours to see that owl, I read the letter it was sad. Harry had almost gotten killed by the sound of it, I didn't like it I didn't want to send him back I loved him even if I didn't show it much, he didn't realise I was the one who stopped Vernon from getting him adopted he didn't realise that I was the one that unlocked his cupboard under the stairs when he was young, I made sure Vernon moved him into a bedroom.
My life of jealousy would go on until the day I died; at least that's what I thought.
