Chapter 3
"GAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" That was the first thing Lilly heard when she came back home. Her sister, Petunia, immediately ran off to her room so that she didn't have to talk to Lilly. Lilly sighed but her parents comforted her and she told them all about that year at Hogwarts - except for the thing James and his friends had done to her as she felt that she should keep her infatuation with her teacher quiet. The two months at her parents' house passed faster than Lilly had thought, though. Fortunately they did ... when her parents weren't there Petunia would invite friends to make fun of her younger sister, taunt her ... torture her. That was why Lilly hated everyone who was mean to weaker people: in Hogwarts she was the strong and talented Lilly Evans but here she was just Petunia's freaky sister. She knew what it felt like to be alone.
Then the first September came and Lilly found herself on the Hogwarts Express once again; Lilly's mother, Evelyn, kissed her daughter's cheek. The two women's red hair mixed for a moment; Lilly's flaming and Evelyn's carrot-red hair.
"Have a nice new year in school, dear," Lilly's father, Mark, said.
Lilly nodded. "Of course, daddy! See you both in summer!"
"And write please! I know you have got to do a lot of school work, but daddy and I want to hear everything about you!" Evelyn called after her daughter who had just gone over to Jelena who hugged her best friend and started to talk about her summer.
"It's always such a pain to let them go," Mrs Marjorie Patil sobbed.
"Too true," Lilly's mum joined in and soon the two were sobbing together in perfect harmony.
In the meanwhile Jelena and Lilly were looking for a free compartment.
"I will NOT sit with these First years!" Jelena stated firmly. "All they do is eat chocolate and yell and wave their wands and try idiotic spells and ..." The blonde girl had to pause to catch her breath; Lilly laughed.
"Sure, there should be free room in the first compartment. No one ever makes it to the first one."
The girls walked on and indeed the first compartment seemed empty, but then they saw the boy who had squeezed himself against the window so that he was all small and not very remarkable.
"Hey Severus!" Lilly said softly.
"H-hi Evans."
"How were your holidays?" Jelena who liked everyone, no matter if they were Slytherins or not, asked.
"O-okay. Y-yours?" Severus hated how his voice was shaking, but he couldn't control it.
"It was PHANTASTIC!" Jelena squealed and started to tell Lilly and Severus everything about her trip to Italy and how handsome the Italian wizards were when suddenly the door opened.
"Snivellus, Patil and Evans ... You don't keep nice company, girls."
Lilly spun around to face James and Sirius. She had no clue where their little friends were and she honestly didn't care.
"I choose my friends for myself, Potty, thank you very much," she said icily.
James drew in his breath sharply and the only reason why he hadn't hurt Lilly so far was that she was a girl.
"All right, Evans. Do as you wish, but don't see we hadn't warned you ..."
With that the boys left the compartment; Lilly's fist were shaking with rage and her face was as red as her hair.
"Ohhh, that ... AAARRRGH!"
Severus and Jelena stared at Lilly: they had never seen someone who was that angry. They could almost **touch** Lilly's fury.
"Very well. Where were you when these ... guys interrupted us, Elli?" Lilly asked.
Severus Snape wondered why Lilly Potter was so nice to him all of a sudden. He couldn't know that this was part of Lilly's plan: she would annoy James to no end if she became friends with Severus and so that was exactly what she was planning to do.
A/N: Still not a lot of romance, guys, sorry!
