Prologue
A pretty little red head made her way upon the gleaming scarlet train known as the Hogwarts Express. The smoke was billowing proudly as Lily sighed happily at the thought of a magical new world, with new people. Dragging her trunk she made her way through the compartments trying to find an empty one for her and her owl Hermit. She got to the last compartment, hoping it was empty but found a sight that disgusted and angered her.
In front of her were three boys. She noticed that one of them had the messiest and unruliest hair she had ever seen and wore glasses over a pair of caramel coloured eyes. The second boy who held a posture as if he was 'cool' had slightly longer black hair which spiked up a little. Both of the two were pointing their wands at a taller boy, with greasy hair and an overlarge nose, and calling him names.
"Leave him alone!" Lily heard her self shout. Not to her surprise both boys looked at her and burst out laughing. Lily didn't mind being laughed at. This was an immediate reaction to her, not so much odd, but unique appearance. Either people would laugh at her flowing red curls and bright sapphire, green eyes or be amazed by her beauty.
"And what are you going to do if we don't?" The one with the messy hair asked her while the other stood smirking and poking his wand at the taller of the three who grimaced and put his head down.
"Carry on and you'll find out!" She snapped at the boy and pulled out her wand. She was feeling much braver then she was.
"Come on Sirius, I wouldn't want to hurt a girl! Even if she is a Slytherin to be." He spat with distaste and threw Lily a dirty look.
"And exactly what is that suppose to mean?" She asked indignantly.
"You, my pretty little flower," he said poking her shoulder softly, "need to watch out who you defend, you'll get a reputation." And with that he and his uptight friend walked off.
"Yeah well, at least it wont be as a bully." She shouted after him angrily.
Lily turned to the boy who looked extremely uncomfortable.
"What were they being idiots for?" She asked him gently.
"Because James Potter thinks he's amazing because his father works at the Ministry of Magic and Sirius, just acts like his amazing because he's too stupid to realise he's not." The boy spat feeling a lot braver now they had gone.
"Sounds like a good analysis." She smiled as she sat down on one of the chairs. "Anyway I'm Lily Evans." She smiled again and stuck out her hand.
"Severus Snape." He said shortly, Lily was sure she had seen a smile twinge. He shook her hand and proceeded to talk. Lily didn't realise at that moment, but she had found her new best friend.
CHAPTER 1
THE PACT.
Lily Evans was deeply in thought about her current assignment set by the Ministry of Magic. She worked for the department of Charms and Transfiguration, finding new useful charms for Aurors.
A tap on the window of her house startled her. She looked up instantly and saw an unusual owl waiting to be let in. Yawning, she got up and opened the window. She noticed the time on her alarm clock opposite her desk. 00.01 am. No wonder I'm tired she thought, untying the letter from the owl and motioning for him to help him self to her owl Hermits cage.
She untied the letter vigorously noticing the untidy scrawl on the envelope and instantly knowing the sender.
Hi Lily.
Its your good friend Severus. Hope you are well. I'm coming home. I'm staying at Mothers. I'd like to see you. How about the three broomsticks at 3 day after tomorrow! Write back with Oracle. (My owl.)
Love Severus!

Lily's heart skipped a beat and her stomach jolted. Her best friend whom she hadn't seen in 5 years was coming home to see her and she was exceptionally happy about it. Severus had left because he was offered a job in America as Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. Knowing he would not get the chance to do it in England he took it and left Lily. She had missed him dearly, and remembered over and over again all the amazing times they had enjoyed. There was one that stood our in her mind the most.
They were both exceptionally drunk, and both feeling exceptionally neglected.
~~~~~~~~~~…….....
"No one will ever love me!" Lily moaned drowsily as she shot beck her fire whisky.
"No one will ever love me either!" Severus moaned echoing her.
"I love you." She told him and had another drink.
"I love you too. I know what we can do. Lets vow that if we are both not married by the age of 25, we will marry each other!" He told her as if it were genius idea.
"Here, here!" She said raising her glass.
Now as they were both exceptionally drunk neither realised the impact of this vow they made, Lily didn't realise the fact that Severus had magically binded the vow and when she woke up and remembered, shoved it to the back of her mind.
It would never really matter anyway, as neither of them felt any sexual feelings towards each other. They were friends and they held a totally platonic relationship.
Lily had a second shock as there was yet another tap on the window. She opened the window yet again and James Potters owl soared threw and dropped a letter on her desk. She patted him gratefully. And felt that familiar feeling of the happiness James bought her wash over her.
She opened the letter and read….
Hi Lil's
How was work? Fancy going out tomorrow. I think you deserve a treat for just being you. Anyway your not refusing. I'll pick you up at 11 and we'll go shopping, then I'll take you to lunch and after you can choose.
Love James
Xxx
She beamed at the letter in front of her. It amazed her that the boy she used to hate was the one she was falling for. Then a thought suddenly hit her hard. How was she going to tell James, Severus was coming back to see her, the man he loathed more then anyone. And how was she going to Severus she was falling for the man he most loathed in the world. She moaned, a minute ago she was the happiest girl in the world, for the 2 men she loved most in the world were thinking of her, now it had all gone pair shaped. She removed her reading glasses. Locked up and went to bed, she would owl Severus in the morning.
OK that was my fist chapter done. I promise I will continue with this one even if no one reviews me *sob*. Luv you and missed you all.
Luv annie xxx
