Crazy2: Thanks for reviewing!! Star Dust18: You too, thanks for reviewing! Lilpeeps: I R/R your story!

Lily woke up to find a beautiful day. She immediately got ready & went for breakfast. Melissa came & asked her "Have you seen Rose?" Lily shook her head, but then realized she was looking directly at Rose! "Melissa, Rose is right there!" The two walked over to her (Rose) & found her playing chess with Remus. (Sirius, James, & Peter were watching) "Lily look, these pieces are alive!!" Rose spoke as Lily, wanted to go away from the boys because James kept staring dreamily at her. Lily of course found this very irritating. Finally Melissa spoke "People, Defense Against the Dark Arts class is going to start in 5 minutes!!" Lily felt relived to hear this & left along with Melissa.

They're DADA teacher was Professor Loren. Lily thought the class was pretty interesting but even though she sat far away from James, he paid attention to her instead of the lesson. She already hated him for two reasons, one for interfering when she was arguing with Malfoy, & two for staring at her all the time. She knew that after a couple of days she would have more reasons.

Their next class was Charms with Professor Filtwick. Lily found it pretty easy, yet boring. Finally, last class for that day was Transfiguration with Professor McGonagall. AS for Lily & Rose it was very hard!! They couldn't turn a chair into a spoon no matter how much they tried. To Lily's surprise, James got it right the first time & paid attention to the lesson! Afterwards, Lily had a lot of work so she only decided to do the Charms essay.

Lily never knew Hogwarts would be so busy. Meanwhile, she was walking around with Melissa, when Rose told them that James & Sirius were pulling a prank on Snape. The girls hurried to watch & saw that James & Sirius had their wands out while Snape was floating in the air. Sirius was about to say a spell, when Professor McGonagall came and said "Mr. Potter, Black, what has gotten into you!!" At that moment Severus dropped with a loud BANG!! Everyone except Severus & Lucius were laughing. (Sorry, I spelled Lucius wrong in the last chapter) Sirius & James had gotten a week of detention.

Later, Lily was in the common room reading, when James came up to her. "Umm.hi.Lily..I just wanted to introduce myself." Before he could continue Lily cut him off "I already know you Potter & that you don't mind your own business..stop staring at me like that!!!" After that she continued reading.

"I absolutely hate that Potter boy!!" Lily said angrily as she walked around with Melissa & Rose. "Lily calm down, we know he embarrassed you, but it was an accident!" Rose assumed. "Rose is right, Lily." Melissa agreed. Lily still loathed James. A couple of days ago, Lily was in the common room, when James just went to her & tried to hug her. Lily tried to push him back, but fell backward, while he was still standing. The worst part was that after she got up, she tripped over a bucket of water & got soaking wet!! James turned really red while Lily shot him a furious look. The common room was full & everyone started laughing at her!! After that day, Lily never forgave James.

Though, Lily, Melissa, & Rose had started hanging around with Sirius, Peter, James, & Remus. Lily, on the other hand refused to James at all. Every time James wasn't around, Lily's friends (Sirius, Peter, Rose, Melissa, & Remus) would tell her to forgive James. Lily just ignored them. Meanwhile, even if Rose was Lily's sister, she was also her best friend.

Lily was very upset about her grades on Transfiguration. She was very bad at it & no matter how much help she got, she couldn't do it. Also, almost every week James & Sirius would pull a prank (mostly on Snape) and often get caught.

The Christmas holidays were coming up & Hogwarts was being decorated. Snow covered the whole place. Everyone was talking about going home for Hogwarts. Lily & Rose didn't know they're plan, but Lily wrote a letter to her parents:

Dear Mom & Dad,

We are having a lot fun at Hogwarts & Christmas holidays are coming soon. We wanted to know if we should come home or stay at school. Tell Petunia I said hi & please reply soon. We'll be waiting

Take care,
Sincerely,
Lily & Rose

Lily read the letter over & gave it to Rose to read. Afterwards, they sent the letter.
