Chapter 1
Lily noticed somebody watching her and looked at Cassidy. Cassidy stared back, not moving. Lily didn't recognize her. Not surprising, though. Cassidy didn't expect much more from someone like Lily. Lily was a popular person with lots of friends. Cassidy was not. Lily was very pretty. Cassidy, well...let's just say Cassidy didn't care much about looks. It wasn't just their appearances that differed, oh no. Their personalities were as different as night and day. Needless to say, they didn't get along. Cassidy plotted plans resulting in Lily having an emotional breakdown while Lily completely ignored her existence.
Lily gave Cassidy a final glance before boarding the train.
"Don't you ever get tired of tormenting the poor girl?"
Cassidy glanced at the owner of the voice and rolled her eyes. "Speak for yourself." she said quietly, rolling her eyes.
"You know, Cass, making enemies like this won't help you in the future."
Cassidy stared at him. "Pardon me, I hadn't realized you'd become a psychatrist, Snape."
Snape shrugged."Whenever there's a person in need, there I am. Got problems? Can't think of any schemes to ruin someone's life? Find me. That's my slogan."
Cassidy raised an eyebrow. "Uh huh. Let me know when you're a normal person again. Until then, you can stay away."
Snape glared at her. "You know Graham, I don't know why he puts up with you."
"I really could repeat that statement. It seems to fit you so much more than it would possibly fit me." Cassidy said as she boarded the train, Snape right behind her.

"Lil, you ok?" Clarynda Davisson, one of Lily's best friends asked.
Lily shrugged. "I'll be ok. I just had a tough break."
"Happens to everyone now and then. One of my nails broke during break and it was a terrible break!" said Naomi White, a...well, to put it nicely, a ditzy blonde.
Clarynda rolled her eyes and turned back to Lily. "What happened?"
Lily shook her head. "Nothing. I'll be fine. I promise if I need to talk, I'll talk to you, ok?" she added, seeing Clar's skeptical look.
"Mmm, right." said Naomi. "Have either of you seen James Potter yet?" Naomi sighed dreamily. "He's so handsome this year."
"I think you've said that every year, Naomi." Clarynda said.
"He's really not that handsome."
"Whatever, Lil! You just say that because of your little fling with him."
Lily rolled her eyes. "I just don't see why everyone says he's so cute."
The door opened and four boys stepped in. (Bet you can't guess who..and just because you know, I'm not going to bother to introduce them)"Did somebody say my name?" asked the one in front.
"No, Sirius, we were talking about James, of course!" Naomi said.
"What, don't you think I'm cute?" Sirius asked, sitting down next to Naomi.
"No!" she giggled. "I think you're devilishly handsome." she said, grinning.
"Is it just me or has she gotten ditzier over Christmas break?" Clarynda asked.
"I think she's gotten worse." Remus agreed, as he and Peter took seats on either side of Clar. This, as planned, left James to sit next to Lily. As the train ride progressed, Remus brought up the Death Eater's newest attack. "It was on this Muggle family. They killed the parents and then just burned the house. They said there were two daughters out of the house when it happened, so they're both ok. It was in the Dailey Prophet."
Lily, who had been trying to seem uninterested and not pay attention, bit her lip to stop the tears that threatened to fall. James saw this, of course, because of their closeness. 'Stop staring at me, James, stop.' Lily thought desperately. She didn't want to start crying with him watching her.
"My theory on the whole thing is that Voldemort is trying to scare everyone-"
"Which seems to be working." Clarynda interrupted Remus.
"-so nobody will want to face him so they'll gladly give over any power position. The only thing that's stopping him from taking over the magical world is Dumbledore, who he's afraid of. So he'll try to get rid of Dumbledore, I don't know how, send him a fake letter telling him to go somewhere and then he takes over the Ministry and-"
"Remus? You can sit down now." Sirius said.
Remus, who got very excited about 'battles between good and evil' had been standing and pacing round the compartment, almost skipping in his excitement. "Oh..." he muttered and sat down, blushing."
"That was deep." Peter said in awe.
Naomi looked up in alarm. "How deep? I won't drown in it, will I? I can't swim, you know, so if it's really deep, I might drown. Is it deep enough that I might drown?"
James stared at her. "What?" he asked.
"I just- I don't want to drown!" Naomi said, on the verge of tears.
"You're not going to drown." Lily said comfortingly.
"Oh, good. So it's only 3 feet deep."
"Yes," Lily said. "it's only three feet deep."
A/N: Oh holy night, that was a terrible chapter. Terrible! I'm sorry. Really. I'm sorry you had to read that. Really. I just thought that since I don't have any homework tonight (that's happened about 5 times this school year), I'd write a little. Obviously, it was a mistake. I'll go back and redo this chapter sometime, don't worry. I was just making up stuff off the top of my head...strange place, that is...Well, I'll leave you to throwing your tomatoes and lettuce and whatever else people throw....
