Finding Out You're a Witch

Chapter 2: Telling The Family
Lily ran downstairs to the rest of her family. Sitting in the T.V. room was her mom, Mrs. Evans, her Dad, Mr. Evans, and her older sister, Petunia Evans. "Mum! Dad! Mum! Dad!" she cried as she ran down the stairs into the T.V. room.
"What's the matter dear?" her mother asked quietly, turning to her. She spotted the pieces of parchment in her daughter's hand as Lily continued to run to them, and finally stopped just before knocking Petunia's drink over.
"Mum, Dad," she started, "I was sitting in my bedroom, reading a book when I heard a noise outside my window. I looked to see what it was and it was an owl." Her parents were looking at her as if she were telling them some story she read from a book. "And it had this attached to it. So I let it in and read its note. I'm accepted into a magical school! Please can I go? Please? Please Mum?"
Her parents looked at Lily, then at, Petunia, then at each other. Lily's red hair was flowing down her back, and she was looking at them intently with her bright green eyes. There was a long pause before her father started, "Well, we'll go to see if this 'Diagon Ally' is real... If it is," he looks at his wife for confirmation, and when she nodded he finished, "you may go, Lil. But only if it is real, so do not get your hopes up." Lily quickly nodded, hugging her father, then her mother.
"Oh, thank you! Thank you so much Mummy! Daddy." With that, she ran upstairs to pick out a suitable outfit for their trip tomorrow. She just knew it had to be real, she'd always believed in magic. She heard a knock on her door, and opened it, revealing Petunia.
"Oh just wonderful Lily, little Miss. Witch. It's so great to have a witch in the family." She spat at Lily, sarcasm obvious in her voice. Lily was wondering what was wrong with Petunia. They were usually pretty close, but now Petunia was just being rude. "I can't believe Mum and Dad would actually believe that. You probably made it up, you little liar." Lily glared at Petunia, beginning to feel angry.
"Get. Out. Of. My. Room. Petunia." She stated, emphasizing each word, her anger obvious. When Lily started to talk like that, it was obvious she meant business, so Petunia stalked out of the room, to her own room. Mr. Evans came up to talk to Lily. "Hi Daddy!" She greeted him brightly. He sat on one of the chairs in her room.
"Lily we are going to go to the Diagon Ally place tomorrow, 'kay?" She nodded, happily. She couldn't wait to go. "Alright, Lily, you'd better get to sleep if we're going to go tomorrow." She was already in her pajamas so she climbed into her large canopy bed. "Night Lily." He said quietly, turning off the lights and shutting the door softly.
"Night Daddy," and with that young Lily Evans fell asleep, only to dream about the next day, when she would find out if Diagon Ally was a real place or not. She'd also find out if she was actually a witch... "Ah, what a day tomorrow will be", she thought as she fell asleep.
