Love from Hate

by Sarawood



"Lily!" Called a scruffy little boy "Lily! Wait up!"

" No Remus you should hurry up!" the girl cried back. Her fiery red hair flowed behind her

Lily Evans was exited. It was only a few days ago that her birthday had passed. She had received a great present. A letter that said she was a witch. She had been accepted into Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry, a fine school indeed Her Parents were so proud of her. They thought it was quite the honour to have a witch in the family.

" Oh Lily!" They'd say "A witch! We're so proud!!"

Unfortunately, Lily's sister Petunia, was not so proud. From the day Mr. And Mrs. Evans had brought Lily home, Petunia hated her. She thought she was too...too...well too something. When Petunia was told Lily was a witch It made her hate Lily more. To her, this made her even more disgusting, if that was even possible.

" She's an impolite, bratty, tomboy and it's a shame being related to her!" Petunia would often say.

Lily didn't really care. She had her best friend Remus Lupin to play with. He was a wizard (though she didn't know that until his 11th birthday) His family had moved to the muggle(a word for non-magical folk) world to be safe from a big war. He was a scruffy boy, with brown hair. Him and Lily got along very well.



" Lily!" Remus puffed " Slow down! There'll be plenty of time to get a wand! What's the rush?"

Lily flashed her big green eyes at him "Isn't it obvious? We want to get there before all he good ones are taken!"

They kept running, Remus dragging slightly behind, until they saw a big sign on a shop. Ollivanders Wands it said in big faded letters

" This must be it!" Lily shouted " Remus hurry up I found it!"
