own nothing J.K. Rowling does.. have a nice day..
From where she stood off looking towards the horizon, it seemed that there was one single tree standing between her and the going downward sun. The tree looked so lonely, like it had never had a companion during its existence.
"That tree is probably really lonely. Like me.." The young woman with scarlet hair looked down towards the ground, slightly depressed.
The young woman was around the age of sixteen, with beautiful red hair and the greenest eyes you had ever seen, though she may have been a little on the chubby side she was still very pretty. Though no one noticed because she didn't have any friends and she always kept to herself and read. One of the shyest girls at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry, and she got picked on, boy did she get picked on.
The Marauders where just about the only people that paid any attention to her, it wasn't the attention she wanted. They were always pulling endless pranks on her, because she was "fat", as they had called her many of times. She really didn't want to believe what they said, but deep down in her heart she knew it was true and she wanted to change just to spite them.
When the young woman went back in to the large house, she needed to make plans with her mother to go on a diet and become one of those way to skinny bean-pole girls.
"Mum.. can you help me with this.. errr.. project that I would like to work on to lose some of this excess baggage that I carry around.. in other words I want to be skinny mum.. please help me.." The young woman's eyes were pleading with her mothers.. Her mother just looked at her, she couldn't really think she was obese could she.. thought her mother.
"Lily, darling you are not fat. You are very beautiful. " The young woman with the scarlet hair eyes went from pleading to hurt.
"How could you think that I am beautiful, look at me mum.. I am fat, and I know I am. I am very tired of looking like I ate a house. I don't deserve to look like this and you know it. Help me to look like the person I really am. Please." Lily, the young woman, knew that her mother would help her because that's just how she is. Lily and her mother looked so much alike, except her mother was not chubby at all, in fact she was too skinny.
"Of course I will help you but I am still saying that you are beautiful the way you are. Is there a boy that you are doing this for, one perhaps from the school you go to?" Lily was a little shocked by this question. Did her mother not know her at all, lily change for a boy.ha ha ..
"Mum, do you know what I do when I am at school." Her mother shook her head "Well I sit around and read. Finish all my homework well before it is due. I have no life, no friends, I hate what I have become, I have myself for being this way." Lily looked down at the ground then up to the ceiling and heaved a heavy sigh. Now that that was finally off her chest she could get to work on who she really was, hidden under all the layers of what she had become.
After the entire summer had past Lily looked as if she has shed layers of skin like a snake does, but instead she had to do it the hard way. She was on a very upper class diet that only the wanna be movie stars really heard about it.
She couldn't wait to see what the students at school would do when they saw the new Lily, she was very, very excited.
The once chubby girl, was now the talk of the little neighborhood that she had lived in her entire life. She had lost so much weight that you could not even tell who it was. She had striking long legs that were slender, the scarlet hair and the green eyes had not changed. She was as skinny as she had wished to be, she was now considered one of the "beautiful" people, in her younger sister's opinion. Lily went from weighing three hundred and forty to one hundred and forty-five. That is a lot of weight to lose and Lily loved every minute of it, she knew it was good for her to get some type of physical activity in everyday, even if it was just walking around the town that she lived in.
"I cant wait to see James's face, god I hate him." Lily said this out load to herself. James was one of the Marauders, he was the one that really picked on her for being over weight. "In your face James Potter..." and she kicked some rocks that were on the pavement on her way home from her morning run.
PLEASE REVIEW; I would love to hear what you have to say about it.. just please keep in mind that this is my first story.. Thanks for reading..
