Chapter 2
4-5 years later
After that night Lily and Remus and Spent every moment that they could together, they became the best of friends. Lily's dad taught them how to play basketball when they were seven and they both went to the same muggle school. It was the last day of school and Remus was acting really quiet and really weird to how he normally was.
"Remus are you ok?" Lily said as they both walked home form school.
"Oh yeah I'm fine." Remus said quietly.
"Yeah you sound it" Lily said with a smile on her face.
"I'm just a bit stressed that's all" Remus explained.
"Ok" Lily said easily.
When they got to their houses they said their goodbyes and they walked into their houses to see their families.
"Hey Remus how was school?" Sophie yelled from the kitchen.
"Fine" Remus said in an offbeat tone walking into the kitchen.
"What's up?" Sophie asked.
"Nothing" Remus answered.
"Its about Hogwarts isn't it?" Sophie said.
"Sort of" Remus started " mum why would I get in anyway I mean I'm not really Hogwarts material am I?"
"Look you have as much chance as anyone else in that school to get in" Sophie explained.
"I guess" Remus said not really believing what his mum was saying.
"Look tomorrow we'll know wont we?" Sophie said smiling at her son.
"Mum can Lily stay over tonight, please?" Remus asked.
"Well what if it does come what will we tell her?" Sophie said.
"Say that's it's a school acceptance letter, which it is" Remus stated.
"Fine go round and tell her," Sophie told Remus.
"Thanks mum" Remus said walking out the door and round to the Evans house.
Remus knocked on the door and to his disgust Petunia answered the door.
"Oh you" Petunia said "come in"
"Thanks" Remus said walking though the door.
"LILY" screeched Petunia, which made Remus shiver "what's his name is here" as she screamed this Claire walked into the living room.
"Why hello Remus, why are you here?" Claire asked.
"I'm just asking Lils if she wants to stay round mine tonight" Remus explained.
"Well she can if she wants I haven't got a problem with it" Claire agreed.
"Thanks" Remus said just as Lily walked down the stairs.
"Hi Remus what's up?" Lily asked.
"Um I was wondering if you wanted to stay over mine tonight?" Remus asked.
"Sure why not" Lily said straight away "can I mum?"
"I've already told Remus you can" Claire explained.
"Ok I'll go and get my stuff" Lily said running up the stairs.
" So Remus are you glad schools over?" Claire said trying to make conversation.
" Yeah 6 weeks with no school who would have a problem with it?" Remus said with a slight laugh.
"I agree" Claire said as Lily walked down the stairs with all of her stuff which was all packed in her arms and she could hardly see where she was going.
"Ok then let's go" Lily said.
"Um Lils do you want some help?" Remus asked.
"Please" Lily answered giving some of the stuff to Remus "see you later mum"
"See you have a good time" Claire said as she saw the two walk out the door and into the next house.
"Hey Lily how are you?" Sophie said as she saw the two walk in the door.
"I'm fine, thanks for asking me to come over," Lily said politely.
"No problem it's not like you haven't slept over before, Remus can you help Lily take her stuff up to the guest room" Sophie asked.
"Sure mum" Remus said picking up the pile of Lily's things and walking up the stairs with her.
As they got into the bedroom Lily could smell the slight sent of lavender and looked round the room, it hadn't changed a bit since the last time she slept here, the walls were painted a light blue colour and the bedcover was in between a dark and light blue and on the bedside table their was on single Lily in a vase.
"You know what Lily we should call this you're room I mean you're the only one who ever sleeps here" Remus said smiling.
"Yeah you're right" Lily said putting her clothes for the next morning in the pine wardrobe.
The night went really fast for Lily and Remus they did all sorts of things like play basketball in the garden and watch horror and humour movies on TV (A/N: even though Remus is from a fully grown wizard family he lived in a muggle street so he needs muggle things in his house, just wanted to clear that up) and by half eleven Lily became really tired and went up to bed and as her head hit the pillow she fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning Lily woke up and wondered downstairs and into the kitchen to find Sophie and Ben sitting down at the table eating breakfast and Ben reading the paper.
" Hello Lily dear did you sleep well?" Sophie said getting up from her seat.
"Yes thanks you" Lily said sitting down on a chair.
"That's good, what do you want for breakfast?" Sophie asked.
"Oh that's all right I'll get it myself you don't have to" Lily said getting up off her seat.
"No it's alright I'll do it go and sit down, do you want some cornflakes?" Sophie said walking to the cornflake cupboard.
"Yes please" Lily answered "morning Ben have you got to go to work?" Lily said facing Remus's dad.
" Morning Lily I do have to go to work yes and if Remus doesn't get up soon I'm going to be late" Ben replied.
"Why are you waiting for Remus to get up, you don't usually? Lily asked.
"Um I just want to say bye to him that's all" Ben explained.
"Ok" Lily could tell that there was another reason but she respected the Lupins privacy and she never knew she could be wrong what Ben had said might just be the real reason.
"Lily dear will you go and wake up Remus for me please?" Sophie asked.
"Ok" Lily answered and walked up the stairs to Remus's bedroom and she walked in the room she saw a big lump in the bed and walked up to it and saw Remus sleeping peacefully and he looked really innocent and then Lily got a really evil thought and she showed this by the evil smile that was on her face she bent down to Remus's sleeping body and pulled him roughly out of bed and started tickling him and he woke up laughing his head off.
"You're wanted downstairs" Lily said getting up.
" You are really evil you no that" Remus said also getting up.
"I know, now get dressed and come downstairs," Lily said walking towards the door.
"Ok see you in a minute" Remus said.
"Yeah see ya" Lily said walking out of the door.
A few minutes later Remus came downstairs fully dressed and after he said all his good mornings he got up to get some breakfast. In the middle of breakfast Ben and Sophie had finally given up hope and realized that their son would not be going to Hogwarts after all.
"Right I'm going to be late if I don't get going" Ben said putting the paper down and standing up. At that exact moment an owl came flying though the window and nearly hit Ben on the head.
"Ah look at that isn't it cool" Lily said as the owl flew towards the table and landed in front of her.
"Hey look it's got a letter attached to it" Lily said picking up the letter.
"Um Lily are you sure that it's yours I mean does it have you're name on?" Remus said slowly going pale.
"Yeah look 'to miss Lily Evans' so it must be for me" Lily said opening the letter.
Lily read the letter over and over again and looked like she didn't understand what it was about when another owl flew in though the window again nearly hitting Ben over the head but this time it landed in front of Remus.
"Hey you got one to, what is it, it's something about a school with witch's and wizards" Lily said looking at Remus.
"Right this is going to be hard to explain look you're a witch, and you're not alone lots of people around the world are including me and Ben and Remus are wizards and you have to go to a school called Hogwarts to learn all sorts of new spells and stuff" Sophie explained.
"Ok so I'm a witch," Lily said.
"Yeah" Ben said " Sophie you're going to have to explain this to her mum and dad I've got to go to work I'll see you later bye" Ben said and walked out the door.
"Bye" the other three said.
"Right we better go and tell you're mum and dad then" Sophie said walking to the door with Lily and Remus following her and they all walked out the door and to the next house. Lily's mum and dad were really pleased with Lily, which made Petunia really jealous.
Why Lily's mum and dad were still talking about the school and all sorts to Remus's mum, Lily and Remus went to sit outside on the bench in Lily's garden.
"I'm really happy that you got in to," Remus said.
"Yeah and me it's gonna be great" Lily said grinning.
"Well I wasn't sure that I was going to get in" Remus said looking down at the floor.
"Why Remus?" Lily said looking concerned.
"Well you see… lily I'm a…
