Chapter 3-Holidays
Lily sat in silence as she remembered her last day at home. The day started off so badly with an encounter with Petunia but it improved. Lily smiled at the knowledge of having such brilliant friends.
**Flashback**
"Lily! Lily Anne Evans get your abnormal freaky arse down those stairs NOW!" Petunia bellowed with disgust at actually having to address her * shudders * sister. Eugh. She cringed at the thought of being related to such a nut case. Going to a school where a crackpot teaches magic tricks. "Petty, I'm not abnormal you muggle. You need to get over the fact that I'm a witch and I go to Hogwarts school of WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY!" Lily sighed inwardly.
It made her so sad that her sister hated her now she is a witch. She longed for a hug and a girly chat with Petty. Lily needed her older sister; she needed advice on boys, clothes, make-up and other things.
"I would prefer it if we didn't communicate just. just go to the kitchen, my mother wishes to converse with you." Petunia spat at Lily.
Lily raised her head high and walked past "I believe she is my mother as well, no matter what you say or wish." Lily's insides cried out in pain, she couldn't take this.
"Hello Lily sweetheart, how's my little witch?" Katie Evans said with a smile and a wink." You got a letter from Hogwarts with your book list. I'll drop you to the leaky cauldron I have to nip to the bank so I'll either meet you in a parlour in the leaky cauldron or you can come with, it's up to you chick pea."
"I'll sit with Tom and wait for you, I don't suppose Petty will be joining us?" Lily said half hopefully and half jokingly. She had a mischievous glint in her eye.
"Some how I think not" Katie walked over to Lily and wrapped her in a bear hug "I know it makes you sad but Petty just needs time."
"Mum I'm in my final year for Hogwarts, she has had seven years to get used to it!" Lily whispered tearfully.
************************************************************* "Lily hunnie, I'll be back in 10 minutes ok? Tom put a tab for her and I'll give you the money on my way out. Cheers!" Lily sat staring at her butter beer humming to a tune on the witching world wireless (A/N sorry, I'm not sure what the radio station's called!) the singing sorceress, Celestina Warbeck was on, Lily's favourite.
"Lils!"
"Tiger Lily"
"Lily Darrrrling"
"Hey Lily"
Lily didn't have to turn around to see who was there.
"Hello Moony, Prongs, ahhh the delightful Padfoot and of course Wormtail." Lily smiled; glad to see her four best friends, all that was missing was Phoenix or Phe as she as she was called by her five best mates. Three tender kisses where planted on her left cheek, forehead and right cheek. James loved Lily dearly; they had been best friends for sevens years, he owned her forehead which was his to kiss as he joked. Sirius also loved Lily dearly but always had this feeling she wasn't what she appeared, she was too nice. None the less he still loved his best friend. He had rightful ownership of Lily's left cheek. Remus, can you guess? Loved Lily like a sister, they became even closer when she found out about him being a werewolf and the others being animagus. Lily's right cheek was what Remus had proud ownership of. Peter and Lily didn't have any physical connection. (Loser haha.ehem)
"How's your summer hol's been Tiger Lily?" James asked while taking a seat next to her.
"Well apart from when you were with us and Phe" Sirius added while nicking her butter beer. Lily gave him a playful hit.
"Ok, so basically how was the last three days of your summer hol's?" Remus laughed while bundling on James and Sirius.
"Well, if you must know. Not particularly fun. Petunia is being worse than ever. She shudders when she walks past me, she cringes when she hears my name. and .and s-s-she washes her hands when ever she comes into contact with me or any thing I touch." A solitary tear fell down her cheek, her emerald green eyes glowing with tears. James pushed Remus and Sirius off him and pulled Lily onto his lap and wiped away her tears.
"Shhhhh Tiger lily, it's ok" James tucked her curly red hair behind her ear and kissed her forehead. "We love you and your parents love you to pieces."
"Deep down" Remus started.
"Deep deep deep down" Sirius interrupted. He received a "shut up before I beat you" glare. "Well she does love you" Remus finished.
Katie walked into the leaky cauldron.
"Oh dear Gods! It's your four. Set any thing on fire lately?" Katie asked in good humour.
"Why my dear Ms Evens, may I call you Kate?" Sirius asked brazenly.
"Sirius dear, you have always called me Kate so why start asking now?"
"Well Kate, we are offended you would think such a thing! Us?!? Start a fire? Never! We're more likely to hex some thing!"
And so began a long day getting school supplies. Katie sat with Sarah Potter and Louise Black.
