Pastly Present
Chapter one: summer annoyance
Lillian Evans woke up to a loud bang at her door.
"Lily quick wake up!" Came a familiar, frustrated voice that she had come to know only too well.
"God Petunia, it's only ten 'o' clock in the morning!" Lily yelled back as she threw her covers over her head to drown out her sisters screeching.
"You think your woe begotten! I have bags under my eyes from not being able to sleep, it has totally ruined my complexion, and how am I going to look when Vernon comes to pick me up!"
"Your formal isn't until seven 'o' clock tonight!"
"Yes but I need to get ready! I need your red lip liner!"
"For god's sake, couldn't this have waited!" Lily said as she approached her door and unlocked it, stumbling sleepily.
Petunia ran into the room, almost barging Lily over, trying to find her dressing table through the piles of books and clothes lying everywhere.
Petunia started rummaging around the room, throwing all of Lily's possessions around frantically. When she turned around she nearly made Lily jump ten feet with fright. Her face was covered in a gooey brown mask and there were ugly looking green blotches covering her nose.
"Petunia, what the hell did you do to your face!"
"It's a mask you nitwit, you know, to make my face more smooth so when Vernon kisses me it will be so nice and soft" she said dreamily, nearly making Lily spew. "But you wouldn't know anything about that would you?" She kept going, smirking widely.
Lily ignored her sisters pompous attitude, she had given up on fighting with her, it was a waste of breath, she wouldn't play her silly games anymore and let her have the satisfaction of thinking she had won.
Finally petunia found the lip liner laying aside Lily's wand on her bedside table; she looked at it suspiciously and pursed her lips before she launched into her usual speech and direct insults.
"You better put all your freakish stuff away, if I find you have been leaving it around so people can just walk in here and see it, I will rip you apart! I'll have you know that I am highly thought of at school, and everyone thinks you are going to a boarding school for girls because you were expelled, you had better keep that appearance up Lily, otherwise you won't know what hit you, I'm the only one who knows what you really are, a freak at that! If I find out you've been telling anyone anything different I'll make sure the rest of your life's a misery so help me god!" And with that final note she departed, Lily's eyes were formed into cold slits and her expression was that of utter most fury as she watched her sister walk out of the door. Infuriated, but holding her tongue, she slammed the door behind her and slumped onto her bed.
She slumped back onto her bed, she was so glad it would only be tomorrow till she was back on the familiar scarlet steam engine on her way to her 6th year at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. She loved her home and her parents, they had both been very supportive of her when she had been excepted to go to the school, but unlike them, her sister had taken it badly, she had screamed and said many things that offended Lily immensely, her parents had been extremely angry at her and it seemed that since the moment the words had came out of Lilly's mouth all those years ago to tell Petunia that she was a witch had changed their relationship forever.
Petunia had never said anything in the slightest bit nice at all to her since she had come back from her first year and taught her parents all that she had learnt. In Lily's opinion it was pure jealousy that had kept Petunia from being nice about it, Lily had to admit that her parents had payed a great amount of attention to her the first couple of years she had spent at Hogwarts and still thought of her more highly than Petunia. She had once felt guilty of taking all the attention and leaving her sister with none, but her snobbish attitude to everything over the last couple of years had left her in know doubt that her sister didn't deserve to pitied, and Lily was a very considerate girl, so that didn't say much about Petunia's personality.
Lily's stomach gave a groan of protest and she thought there was no point in trying to get back to sleep so decided to make her way downstairs for breakfast, or, in her mothers opinion, brunch. She tied her waist length, red hair into a rough pony tail and trudged down to eat.
Her father was reading the newspaper and her mother was busy making bacon and eggs over near the stove. She sat down at the table after groaning a rather forced good morning to both of them. She sat and watched her mothers equally identical red hair swish from side to side as she clattered around the kitchen and thought of the many spells she could use to get breakfast so much quicker of a morning.
Her father looked up at her over the newspaper and as if he had only just spotted that he wasn't the only one in the ktchen asked
"Where's Petunia?"
As if on siganl Petunia came running down the stairs, ugly, glucky face mask and all.
"Mum! Mum! Where's my dress? It's gone, I can't find it!" she screamed hysterically.
"Petunia dear, don't be silly, I hung it in your wardrobe last night" "Oh" She ran back up to her bedroom while Mrs Evans called after her
"Petunia! Aren't you goning to have breakfast?"
"No of course not! I mightn't be able to fit into my dress if I eat!"
Lily sighed and for the millionth time wondered how she had the same genes running through her veins as her sisters.
~*~
That day went past in a blur of screaming, hysterical ranting and very long lectures from her mother and sister. Lily closed the door in her bedroom and put on her sterio at full ball so as to drown them both out. She started to gather her robes and new school books into her trunk ready for tomorro morning when she would be heading towards Kings Cross station to aboard the Hogwarts express on platform nine and three quarters. She neatly folded a set of robes and placed them onto the end of her bed, she then picked up a gold and scarlet badge that read prefect on it and pinned it to the coler. She was very proud of her badge and was extremely happy when it had arrived with her letter from Hogwarts, the only thing that she was dreading was finding out who the other prefects were. She hated the fact that, that idiotic prick James Potter and his gang that called themselves the Marauders had a fair chance of becoming a prefect, and all because they all got top grades, well all except for Peter, he only scraped through his OWL's because James, Sirius and Remus told him most of the answers. If James did end up becoming a prefect she knew she would have to protest, or at least say something to Professor McGonagall.
When she had finished packing her trunk it was already seven forty five and Petunia was dressed and ready for her formal, Lily had to admit that her sister did look less vile than usual under all that makeup and wondered for at least the hundredth time how she got into the 'popular' group being so ugly! She was wearing, in Lily's opinion, the most revolting dress she had ever seen. It was a light pink and had frills trimming the high cut sleeves, the neck was cut extremely low and to top it all off, and in Petunia's opinion to make it perfect, there was a large move bow rapped around her waist that sat on her rather large behind.
Petunia twirled around excitedly while she waited for the door bell to ring that would signal the beginning of her 'fun filled'night. Mrs. Evans bustled around her, fixing up any loose strands of hair while Mr. Evans gave her the normal lecture of when to be home and what not to do.
"Now, no drinking, no staying too late, no going off with any other people, you come straight home afterwards you hear! And no-"
Though Petunia didn't get to hear what else not to do as the doorbell rang that very moment and as she pulled it open a plump looking boy in a black suit with his hair slicked back stood staring at her, it was no other than Vernon Dursley, the pompous git himself.
With one small wave of the hand and a quick bow from Vernon they were finally off and for the first time that day they were all left in peace. Mrs. Evans slumped into one of their squishy floral sofas and Mr. Evans stood weraily beside her, wiping the sweat from his brow. Lily walked down the stairs that she had been watching the cufuffle from and sat by her mothers side.
"Are you packed ready for tomorro dear?" Mrs. Evans asked her daughter.
"Yeah, are you both taking me to the train station?"
"Of course! We want to see you off as a prefect, oh Lily you've made us so proud!" Mrs. Evans exclaimed, embracing her daughter into a hug.
Lily's face went slightly pink.
"Listen, I'm really tired, I think I'll go up to bed, I don't want to be grumpy for tomorrow morning"
"Ok darling, we'll see you then, Goodnight" Her father called after her as she slowly resided to her bedroom.
