Chapter One

"LILY! GET DOWN HERE! THERE'S ANOTHER STUPID OWL FOR YOU", yelled Petunia from downstairs.

Lily sighed to herself, heading down the stairs. Petunia was never going to like her, no matter what she did. She had tried her best to be nice to Petunia this summer. She had even offered to perform a simple charm that would make Petunia's hair sleek and shiny, unlike the frizzy mess it was. But she still resented Lily for being a witch.

She took the letter from the owl, placing some coins into a small pouch around the owl's foot. Tearing it open, she was surprised to see two pieces of paper fall out, along with a silver badge.

Ms. Lily Evans,

Congratulations! You have been selected as Head Girl for you seventh year at Hogwarts. Along with the Head Boy, you will be given great responsibility. You will be in charge of organizing school dances, clubs and weekend visits to Hogsmeade. In addition to this, you will have the option of staying in a private dormitory, shared by the Head Boy. This is a very prestigious role and I am sure you will take it seriously. Your first meeting will involve giving the prefects their duties. Please meet in the front compartment of the train on your way to the school. I look forward to seeing you in school.

Sincerely,

Headmaster Albus Dumbledore

Lily smiled to herself. Her last year at Hogwarts was going to be absolutely perfect. She hummed to herself, while buttering her toast. Petunia glared at her, but even she couldn't get Lily in a bad mood today.

"Grandma, is it all right if I go visit Tessa today?

An elderly, tired woman turned to face Lily and said, "Sure." When her granddaughter had first gone away to Hogwarts, Jeannie had been skeptical. But now, she had grown used to owls interrupting their breakfast. Lily had even helped out around the house by charming the vacuum cleaner to go on its own and the dishes to do themselves. "Just be back before curfew sweetie."

"Ok, thanks Grandma." Lily disappeared with a crack.

A second later, she arrived in Tessa's room. "Morning Tess, what do you wanna do today?" She sat down on the bed, making herself at home. Tessa looked a bit uncomfortable. "Um, Lils, do you think you could come back la--?" She was interrupted by a deep male voice calling from the bathroom.

"Tessa, do you have an extra toothbrush I could borrow", called the familiar voice of Sirius Black. He came out of the bathroom wearing only his boxers. Seeing Lily, he froze.

"Um, hi Lily" he paused. "Uh, how's your summer been", he said awkwardly.

"Oh, uh, hi Sirius." She turned to Tessa, who turned a deep shade of red. "Uh Tess, could I talk to you alone for a sec."

"Yeah sure." She hopped out of bed, in a t-shirt and her underwear and met Lily in the hallway.

"Tess!" Lily said in a hushed whisper. "Sirius Black? What were you thinking? Do your parents know he's here?"

"Lils, I don't know. He took me out dancing, and one thing led to another." Tessa sighed, leaning her head against the wall. "He's actually very sweet." Lily rolled her eyes. "As for my parents, hell no! Are you kidding me? They decided to take a vacation in northern France. I decided not to go."

"Oh okay." She peered back into the room, where Sirius was sitting on the bed impatiently. "Sorry I interrupted. I'm gonna go visit Ashley."

"That's okay. But Ashley's not at home, don't you remember? She's working at Zonko's this summer. Why don't you go visit her? I bet Potter is driving her crazy." (A/N: Both Ashley and James got summer jobs at Zonko's Joke Shop)

"All right, I'll save her from Potter."

"Okay, Bye." Lily disapparated.

She appeared in Hogsmeade, in front of the joke shop. (A/N: Can't remember if Zonko's is in Diagon Alley or Hogsmeade. Sorry if I'm wrong.)

Ashley, a short pretty girl with dark brown hair, caught Lily's eye and waved. Lily went inside, and Ashley came out from behind the cash register.

"Hey Lils."

James, who was behind the register counting money, heard Lily's name and his ears perked up. He came out and stood next to Ashley.

"Yeah, hey Lils." "So Ashley, is Potter driving you crazy?"

"Oh my gosh, YES! He keeps pestering the customers."

"Hey, you call it pestering, I call it sales pitch."

They all laughed at him. "So Ashley, can I talk to you alone for a sec?"

"Yeah sure, Potter, don't break anything", Ashley called out over her shoulder.

"Who, me?" He asked innocently.

Lily smiled, as they walked off.

"So, what's up?"

"Oh my gosh Ash, did you know Tess and Sirius are together?"

"Really?"

"Yeah", said Lily, recapping the incident that took place this morning. She was in the middle of explaining when James interrupted.

"Ladies", he said innocently, putting his arms around their shoulders, "Why don't we take a break? My shift is over."

"Yeah Potter, but mine isn't over for another 2 hours", replied Ashley.

"What a shame," he said apologetically, an evil glint in his eyes. "Oh well, I guess that just leaves Evans and me. Evans, what do you say me and you go down to the Three Broomsticks and have ourselves some drinks."

Ashley smiled, understanding what Potter was up to. His arms still around her shoulder, Lily glared at Ashley. She could only laugh.

"So, Evans. How about you and me go out tonight? We could go to this new club in London. Sirius taught me this new spell that can make us fake Ids."

This was the part Lily hated, turning him down. "Sorry Pott—," she started.

He sighed and held up his hand, motioning for her to stop. "I know Evans, you're sorry. You want to but you just can't," James said dejectedly, reciting Lily's trademark rejection speech.

She looked at her watch. "Potter, I gotta go home for lunch. I'll see you at school", she said questioningly.

"Yeah, whatever."

"By the way, do you know if Remus got Head Boy?" She asked, getting up.

"Actually, surprise surprise. I'm Head Boy this year. Guess we'll be living together, huh?" Before he could hear her response, she disapparated with a crack.
