Chapter Four
"Lily, sweetie, we're so proud of you! This is your last year! Now, you promised that you would write all the time. Don't forget, understand?" Mrs. Evans said.
"I know mum. I promise t write every day," 17 year old Lily Evans said.
"Congratulations on getting Head girl this year, we're so proud of you hunny. Now it's almost time for the train to leave. We love you sweetheart," Lily's father told her.
With a kiss to each of her parents and a quick "I love you too", Lily turned to her sister Petunia. Petunia was three years older than her and hated Lily. Lily didn't really like her either. "Well Petunia, goodbye."
"Bye freak." Lily rolled her eyes and waved her family off. She got her stuff and ran through the barrier to Platform 9 ¾.
There were witches and wizards all over the place saying goodbyes and greeting their friends. Lily took a deep breath when she got on the platform. She loved the smell. It was the smell of magic. It was a perfect smell.
Lily made her way onto the train and put her stuff in the head compartment. She then walked off the train to see if she could find her friends. Instead, she saw the one person she was trying to avoid. James Potter.
He was saying goodbye to his family. "Now, James dear, write everyday and tell us what's new in the life at Hogwarts," his mother said.
"Try not to get in too much trouble, son. Also try and get that girl you've been after," His father told him with a wink and a nudge. James blushed scarlet. "Dad."
His parents smiled at him. A little girl with raven black hair in pigtails tugged on her parents' robes. "Can I go to Hogwarts too? Please? I miss James when he goes away. Please?"
James bent down and looked the girl in the eye. "Erin, you know that you can't come with me. In two years you'll be able to go." Seeing tars in the girl's eyes he said, "But maybe little sis, if you're good for mom and dad, they might let you come see me on a Hogsmade weekend. How does that sound?" Erin smiled and hugged her brother. Lily smiled.
This was the James Potter she used to know. Not the one that took over his body in fifth year. That one was an arrogant, ladies' man prick. This James was the one that she fell in love with years ago. The one that was sensitive, caring, and sweet. There was no contest to the one that she really loved. While in her thinking, she didn't notice his father point to her and ask who that was. She didn't realize James turn around and blush.
His parents knew who she was, the love of James's life. They smiled and said goodbye to their son. James kissed them and the little girl. They then disappeared. Lily realizing that she was starring blushed. James was a little upset that she ran off, but maybe she saw that he had changed. A little glimmer of hope appeared in James's heart then as he went to find his friends.
~*~
Hours later, after Lily found her friends, they sat and talked in a compartment. No one else was allowed in the head compartment so she just sat there with her friends until the prefects meeting. She didn't tell anyone about seeing James and his family.
Just then the Marauders came in. Sirius, Remus, and Peter stayed good friends with the girls but James was and enemy to the girls except Ailisa and Anna. Ailisa was going out with Sirius and Anna was going out with Remus. They had made an effort to be nice around James, but they didn't like him much after leading Lily on. Greetings were exchanged and the boys sat down.
Sirius sat down next to Ailisa and gave her a passionate kiss that went on for minutes until Emily told them to get a room. Remus sat next to Anna and gave her a small kiss before discussing their summers. Peter sat nest to James who sat across from Lily. She wasn't too happy with this but he didn't really talk to her. He was trying to keep himself under control and to make him see more mature.
Lily had grown up over the summer. She had developed curves in all the right places. Her hair was sleeker and skin more flawless skin. Her lips were fuller and just seemed to give off a radiant glow. She was perfect to James.
Apparently things were going well for all her friends. When everything was going well, Lily left to go to the prefects meeting to find out who the Head Boy was and to greet all of the prefects.
