Thank you for all your replies! In the first page it's titled Chapter One: Lily Evans but when it's really suppose to be Author's Note. Sorry about that. I'm kind of new to fanfiction.net.

Chapter One: Lily Evans

A girl rested her head against the window as she let the soft motion of the train and the silence around her allow her to think. Her auburn hair fell like a wild cascade over her head and the sides of her pearled skin. The brilliant, almond shaped eyes shone in deep reflection as she remembered another train ride that didn't seem so far away.

In it had been riding another girl, an eleven-year girl and innocent to the world. She had been in awe of the news that she possessed magic and enjoyed ever part of this new dream. She had felt the happiness that surges through the body of those who meet a friend, a true and loyal friend, for the first time and whom in a completely strange world they find the familiar self that they had neglected to see.

What has changed since then? She wondered sadly how is it that that excitement has ended like a burning, bright fire extinguished after having so much warmth.

Now she felt disappointed: not in the world she had discovered but in the self that she had found. She had always known that she was meant to do something, to be someone and yet here she was being nothing. Yes, yes, she was had been made head girl and her grades weren't something to be ashamed off. And it was true she had found wonderful friends who were as loyal to her as she was to them. But that was all nothing. She had promised herself in that first train ride that she would never be scare, that she would always follow her dreams but. that was just it. It seemed as if she had no dreams.

Lily Evans had everything any girl could wish for.

"What are you thinking about?" asked Melody Potter, peeking up from her book, in a whisper so that they wouldn't wake up Jenna Rowland, who lay fast asleep in front of them.

"Nothing much. Just. you know, about how this going to be our seventh and last year at Howgarts," shrugged Lily smiling warmly and sweeping away her concerns from her face.

"Hard to believe," agreed Melody returning the smile. "but this is going to be an amazing year. the best in centuries. Everything will run by perfectly like a fairy tale."

"I hope so," muttered Lily, admiring her friend's enthusiasm in every word she spoke. Melody had always been like that: dreamy and happy with life and it seemed as if life was happy with Melody too since everything always went her way. and even when it didn't she made it look as if it had. "Anyways, Dumbeldore already entrusted us, the Head Boy and Head Girl, with more authority than usual, like the planning of activities and such."

"That's great but I still don't get how my little, twin brother got to be Head Boy after all the pranks he has given and detentions he has received."

Lily was about to agree and rattle on about how much other boys would have deserved that position more when a teasing, strong voice interrupted her.

"I trust that we're not misusing my reputation, Mel," smirked James Potter, followed by the inseparable and intolerable gang best known as The Marauders, as he sat next to Melody and rested his arm on her shoulder, "because that would just ruin the relationship between twins."

"I trust that we're not misusing my reputation, Mel," smirked James Potter, followed by the inseparable and intolerable gang best known as The Maurders, as he sat next to Melody and rested his arm on her shoulder "because that would just ruin the relationship between twins."

Melody shrugged him off as Lily snapped, "What are you four doing here? Why don't you-"

"Join us for a game of snap?" suggested Jenna waking up from her deep sleep and giving them a playful smile. "We really were getting kind of bored."

"Hey, Jenna,' choired Sirius and Peter returning her attention with a flirtatious grin but they all knew it wasn't them who Jenna wanted to receive any kind of grin from.

"Hey." She looked quickly past them to Remus Lupin. "How was your summer, Remus?"

Remus mumbled something that sound like, "Fine."

James shook his head at his friend's lack of confidence when speaking to girls especially girls who flirted with him as much as Jenna did. The worst part was that James was sure that Remus liked her too except he was too shy and afraid. So, he decided to give Remus a little lesson on girls.

"How was -your- summer, Lily?" he asked coyly, he messed up his already untamable, jet black hair and set his hazel eyes on her in that same way that had convinced Kelly Hilt to date him last year and that had broken her heart when he had broken up with her during the summer.

"Great. No noisy Marauders making stupid remarks in the middle of class and most of all -no blue hair!" spat Lily, folding her arms.

James raised his hands up as Sirius and Peter bursted out laughing, "That wasn't my fault, honest! It was meant for another person and you got in the way."

"Yeah right." Answered Lily, who had far too much experience with their pranks to even care if it was meant for her or not. The point was that she had to be seen with blue hair for a whole day because of those arrogant Marauders.

"It really wasn't," agreed Sirius backing up his best friends, and though his dark brown eyes danced with laughter he was able to keep his face pretty much straight, "It was meant for that dork, Sniv-" Sirius stopped as Lily shot him another annoyed look and quickly corrected himself: "Snape."

"When are you ever going to leave that poor boy alone," complained Melody, frowning slightly. "He really hasn't done anything wrong. He might be a bit. special and awkward but he is just a regular boy trying to survive your attacks."

"You make him sound like an innocent three year old," protested James indignantly "when really he's a dark wizard that will probably join You- Know-Who as soon as he's old enough."

"You don't know that, James," said Melody seriously. Lord Voldermort was nothing to joke about and James especially should know that.

"' 'Course I do," he said, "He comes from a dark wizard family and he knows all about the dark arts. Why wouldn't he be?"

Sirius became suddenly serious but didn't say anything as he looked awkwardly around and smoothed his silky brown hair away from his face. Being from a dark wizard family didn't prove anything, he thought bitterly, at least not in his case. James quickly sensed this and added, "Besides, he called Lily a Mud- you know what. Only dark wizards would be like that."

Lily turned bright red and Jenna agreed with James, "He really is a brute."

Melody put her hand around Lily's shoulder, "You know you guys really should leave. We will be arriving at Howgarts shortly and we haven't even changed into our robes. James and Lily especially need to hurry since they have to help Hagrid cross the first years."

James smacked his forehead with his hand, "I forgot about that!" He said disappointed, then looked at the rest of the marauders shamefully, "I guess we'll have to postpone that prank for later."

"Don't worry about it," said Peter quickly "anyways, it'll give us time to tell Peeves about it. I bet he'll be willing to help us."

Melody looked worriedly at them. She had no idea how it was that they had been able to befriend the school's poltergeist but ever since they had their pranks had increased in quality making everyone in Howgarts fearful of walking in the halls alone. However Melody didn't ask anything, it would have been useless to do otherwise, and pushed James gently out of their compartment as she motioned the others to follow him.

"Getting kicked off by own sister." remarked James as the compartment door was shut behind them and they were left outside like stray dogs in the streets "that should be illegal."

"Getting turned down by your crush constantly," teased Sirius, "should be your job from now on. You would be rich then."

"That girl really is playing hard to get." Added Peter, shaking his head as he joined James in his mourning.

"I don't think she's playing." laughed Remus, turning back to his usual self now that he was away from Jenna's ears and eyes.

"She is," argued James, smiling mischievously "She's playing Lily Evans. The girl whose suppose to have everything plan out and isn't ever taken out by surprise or afraid of anything." He stopped walking and turned back to his friends, smiling confidently "But you know what?"

"What?" asked Peter energetically, as he clapped his hands together.

"It's all a face. Inside Lily Evans is in love with me just like any other girl in Howgarts."

Remus patted his back in pretended sympathy as he shot Siruis a look that clearly stated they knew something the others didn't: "Are you sure that Lily is the one pretending? How can we know that it really isn't you that has gone from a simple crush to love? In love with Lily Evans..."
