The last month of Lily's summer vacation flew by, but Lily had no complaints at all. Sure, she was leaving her mother and her father, who she loved dearly, but she was going to Hogwarts, the place she considered home above anywhere else. As she lay in her bed the night before she was to leave for school, she thought about how this upcoming year would be so much better than the rest. Well for one, she was a 7th year... a highly popular 7th year at that. AND she was Head Girl. That had to add something extra to her year. Then she remembered with whom she would be sharing the Head duties. James Potter. Of all people! James- the one that thinks himself worthy of all praise, James- the stuck up snobby jerk, James- the biggest, adorable prat ever!! WAIT! She did not just think of James as adorable...
"LILY! Get a grip on yourself! It's Potter! Despicable, no good, rotten Potter!" Lily said aloud to herself. Then she sighed. "HE IS CUTE! THERE'S NO DENYING IT!" But there's nothing bad about finding someone attractive is there? He's still that awful James Potter kid.
Lily's alarm clock went off at 8 o'clock on the morning of September 1. She jumped out of bed, eager to reach platform 9 and ¾. "I'm going home! YEAH! I'm going home! YEAH! I'm going home! YEAH!" Lily continued this chant all the way down to the dining room, where she pulled her mother and father into a hug. "Mum," she said. "Dad, I'm going to miss you both so much!" Then she kissed Mr. and Mrs. Evans on the cheek and sat down to enjoy her breakfast of waffles and eggs. Her parents beamed at her before retreating to the living room. As Lily was putting syrup on her waffles, Petunia stumbled sleepily into the dining room. At the sight of her sister alone in the dining room, Petunia tried to run for it, but Lily, being in her great mood, called her sister back.
"C'mon Pet! It's the last meal we'll eat together in a long time!" Lily pleaded.
"NO! How do I know you won't... you know..."
"Curse you!" Lily screamed as Petunia ran from the room.
Lily sighed. "I only wanted to sneeze on her food one last time before I left..."
Lily finished her breakfast and headed upstairs to get ready to head to King's Cross. After getting out of the shower and drying her hair, Lily headed to her closet to pick out her clothes. "Hmm..." Lily thought to herself. "Which outfit would make the Marauder's heads spin?? This one looks good." Lily picked out black slacks and a green top that matched her eyes. Just after she finished applying her lip-gloss and mascara, Lily heard her mother's voice ringing up the stairs.
"Lillian! We're leaving in ten minutes!"
"Yes ma'am!" Lily called back. She gathered her remaining things and headed down stairs to meet the rest of her family.
The car ride to King's Cross took almost an hour. Lily was stuck in the back seat with Petunia, but she didn't really care. It was just an hour and then she would be back where she belonged, at Hogwarts, with her friends.
Petunia stayed in the car while her parents saw Lily onto the platform. They, being muggles, couldn't get onto platform 9 and ¾. "Oh Lily! I am going to miss you! Write me any time you need to! I love you!"
"I love you too, Mum," Lily replied, giving her mother a hug.
"Congratulations again on becoming Head Girl, flower," Mr. Evans said.
"Thanks dad. I'll miss you." Lily hated leaving her parents. They were always so hard to leave!
As soon as Lily passed through the barriers between 9 and 10, she felt hands around her waist. "SIRIUS! GET YOUR PAWS OFF ME!" she yelled when she turned around.
"Hold on, Lily," Sirius said as he spun Lily around. "I like this outfit... this is nice... this is much better than the school uniforms..."
"Sirius, what are you doing to young Ms. Evans here?" a voice said from behind them.
Lily stopped. She knew that voice. It belonged to none other than...
"JAMES POTTER!" Sirius yelled. "I've missed you, Prongs ole buddy! Now, if you walk with me this way, I would like to tell you about some the pranks I've been thinking of while being locked away in my room all summer..."
"Hold that thought, Padfoot. I haven't said hello to Ms. Lillian yet." James replied.
"Oh Lord. Doesn't he get the fact that I don't like him?" Lily thought to herself.
"Lily," James said suavely, "Hello. Did you have a nice summer?"
"Yeah it wasn't bad," Lily answered.
"Well that's good." James replied.
"Well, if you will excuse me, I'm going to go find Candice, Nicole, and Grace."
As Lily walked off, she heard James say, "I'll see you on the train, Evans."
Two minutes into the searching of her friends, she came upon Remus. He looked tired and worn. Lily remembered that the full moon was three nights ago.
"Hello Remus," Lily said.
"Hello Lily-love," replied Remus, as he pulled her into a hug.
"How are you feeling?" Lily questioned.
"I've been better. How was your summer?"
"Pretty good. Sirius and Potter are over there," Lily said, pointing to where she just was. "If ya'll want good seats you should probably go find a compartment. I'm going to look for the girls, then we'll be in there too."
"Yes, Head Girl, ma'am," said Remus, before turning away.
"Wait!" Lily called after him. "How did you know I made Head Girl!?"
"Prongs told me," Remus said without looking back at her.
"Soo... Mr. Potter has been talking about me!? Ugh! I can't stand him!" Lily thought to herself.
Lily found her friends about five minutes later. They were all together and looking for Lily, but Lily found them first. There was a multitude of screams and giggles and congratulations.
"Lily, I like this sexy look you have going on!" Nicole said. Lily smiled.
"Yeah so does Sirius."
"Uh oh! Get 'em Lils!" Candice said.
"No... not Sirius. He's like a brother to me."
"That doesn't mean he's not hot," Grace broke in.
"Oh shut up and let's go get on!" Lily said, trying to end that conversation. Sirius was like her brother!!
Lily led the girls to the train and, with a promise to return to their compartment A.S.A.P., went to the Heads' compartment.
It was splendid. It was decorated in red and gold for the Gryffindor Heads. There were couches and pillows everywhere, and they all looked superbly comfortable. Lily looked around for a sign of James, but found none. Instead she saw a house-elf in the corner of the room.
"Umm... hello?" Lily said. At these words, the elf stepped toward her.
"Hello," the squeaky voice said. "I am Reggie. If there is anything you would like, just ask and Reggie should try to get it for you, miss."
"Well thank you, but I think I'm fine," replied Lily. "Honestly..." Lily thought to herself, "If that Potter does not hurry up..."
And like an actor right on cue, James entered the compartment. His jaw dropped. "Whoa," he said to himself. "This is awesome..."
"Yeah, it really is," Lily said, startling James. "I thought that you were going to be late, Potter, and I was going to have to give the Prefectorial speech all alone... What were you doing anyway?" Lily asked.
"Well I was with Moony, Wormtail, and Padfoot. You figure it out." James said airily.
"Ah, pranking. I can't wait to see what Sirius' mind came up with this year," said Lily.
"It was a good one, I have to give him that... I'm thirsty. Is there anything to drink around here?" At that remark, the elf named Reggie ran to James with a butterbeer in his hand. "Ah nice service," James said, as he took the butterbeer.
Lily scoffed. "Potter, you're so ungrateful! Now c'mon! We have to go talk to the Prefects."
Lily stomped out of the room, leaving a confused James standing there.
After speaking to the Prefects, James led Lily to the compartment that held all of their friends. When they entered, they found all of their friends enjoying a game of gobstones, but they looked as though they had just played Exploding Snap. All of them were covered with ash and Sirius was missing an eyebrow.
"I'm glad they grow back quickly," Sirius said when Lily pointed that out.
The train ride back to Hogwarts was by far the best one they had. They talked about their summers and the year to come. "By the look of things, this year is going to be a great one. Even if I do have to spend it with James Potter," Lily thought, as the train stopped at the Hogsmeade Station.
Ok- it's done and it'd much longer than the last one. Please review and tell me what you think!!
