On Lily's birthday, June 20, a week before her party they all showed up at her house to sing "Happy Birthday". When they came in an owl flew in the door and drooped a letter in front of Lily. She was expecting it but the owl then tried to land on Petunia thinking she was a perch because she had not moved since it had flown in. As is flew closer to her Petunia started screaming and ran into the coat closet thinking it was the door outside, but was to afraid to come out. Lily, Sydney and the guys had started laughing at Petunias face but now collapsed and were laughing hysterically that the owl had tried to land on her. When they could stand up again Lily ripped the letter open and started reading it.
Dear Miss Evans;
You have been accepted to Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry. If you wish to attend send reply with the owl..
Lily grabbed a pen, paper and wrote, "YES".
"Don't you think you should write more than that?" James asked.
So Lily added, "I would love to attend, Lily Evans" and sent it with the owl.
Lily continued reading the letter. It included her school supplies list, but she didn't know where to buy them. She had never seen a store that sold wands or cauldrons.
"Where do you get these things? I have never seen them sold in England." She stated
"That's the other reason we came, to invite you to come to Diagon alley with us. That's where you can get your school supplies. Were leaving in two week would you like to go?" Sydney practically begged. She didn't want to be stuck with James, Remus and Sirius for a whole week at Diagon alley. Also her and Lily needed to get pranks to play on the guys.
"I would love to. Let me go ask my parents." She practically ran into her dad as he was coming down the stairs.
"CanigotoDiagonalleywiththem?" she said but no one understood it.
"Slow down tiger say that again." her father said.
"Can I go with them to Diagon Alley in a week and stay a week there? I need to buy my school supplies," she said like it was completely obvious.
The day after James party his parents came over and explained everything to Lily's parents. They knew about Hogwarts and Lily being a witch. Mr. Evans was excited to let Lily go as long as she promised to write.
"Sure you can go to Diagon Alley as long as you behave." he finished with a grin because Lily was bouncing around the room hugging everyone.
"Calm down Lily its no big deal going to Diagon Alley." Remus barely got out before she almost squeezed him to death.
"No big deal, no big deal I have never been anywhere magical in my life this is grrrrrreat! " she yelled.
"This is a side of Lily we have never seen before," exclaimed James as he tried to jump out of the way so she wouldn't hug him again, actually he liked it but didn't want to show it.
For Lily's birthday they had decided to take Lily and show her how to fly and play Quidditch. When they got to the field they had a spare broom for her and showed her the basics. After that they left her on her own and she was a natural, at least as good as Remus on her first try. Soon all her friends hung in mid air watching her dive, flip, and fly with ease. Lily had taken to flying just as well as James had, and appeared to love it. When she realized everyone was staring at her she was afraid she was doing something wrong.
"Did I mess up or am I doing something wrong?" she asked.
"No. Its amazing, your at least as good a flyer as Remus if not as good as Sydney and they have been flying all there life." James managed to finally spit out.
"Oh I wasn't really trying I was just having some fun and trying not to screw up to bad." as she said that all their mouths dropped.
"James you might have some competition." Sirius couldn't help but say.
"Lets try something I am going to throw these golf balls and I want you to catch them." Sydney was contemplating whether she could be a seeker or chaser better.
When Sydney was throwing the golf balls they fell about 3 feet before Lily caught them. She was great and could be a seeker but Sydney had a hunch.
"Lily, take these balls and go over there, then throw them back to us. Then we'll throw them back to you, but we will be moving when you throw" and she handed 3 balls to Lily.
Lily backed away 20 feet and throw the balls to each of them with perfect placement. When they threw them to her she caught them with ease. They were all very surprised.
Sirius flew to Lily in a total state of shock. "When you said you could play any sport well you were right. It takes some years to be as good as you are." He was amazed.
"I was good? It was fun. I guess basketball practice paid off." She said.
James, Remus and Sirius were planning to pull a prank on Lily at her birthday party, they just didn't know what to do. It couldn't make her muggle friends curious but it had to be good. They finally decided on gluing Lily to her chair so she couldn't get up for an hour. What James didn't know was that Remus and Sirius were planning on gluing Lily and James together some how.
The day of the party they showed up at the arena to watch the game. There was a surprise. They would pick two people to go onto the field and score a goal. If they could make a goal they could win a team jersey. You enter the contest but it was already prearranged for Lily and James to win. When they guys showed up they saw Petunia. She was supposed to spend the day at her friend's house but her friend caught the flu so her parents made her come. When they got there they put glue on the chair they were trying to get Lily in but right before she sat down Petunia grabbed her arm, pulled her back and sat in the seat. The guys all cringed hopefully she didn't try to get up. Lily didn't know how lucky she was. Sydney and Lily had the gum but weren't sure when to give it to the guys so they decided to wait a while. At half time the score of the soccer game was Manchester United 1 Liverpool 0. When the contest winners were chosen it was James and Lily. Lily was so excited she was jumping around. When they finally got her on to the field James shot first. His shot was perfect but the goalie caught it. Lily shot next. She faked Left then went right. The goalie went left and she scored. When they gave her the jersey she had a smile on her face that if it were any bigger her face would split in two. She hugged James then gave him a high five. What they didn't know was Sirius and Remus had put glue in her and James hands but they would only get stuck together and nothing else when they went to pull them away they were stuck.
"James you can let go of my hand now." Lily said.
"I'm not holding it you can let go of mine," He explained.
"Why would I hold on to your hand?" She asked.
"Because I'm irresistible." He stated like it was completely obvious.
"You know I just can't resist you," she said then looked at his face he looked like he was king. Then she added "get over your self I wasn't being serious."
"I hope you weren't being Sirius and I'm not holding it," he said.
At the same time they realized what happened and both yelled "Sirius! Remus!" Who were rolling on the ground laughing their heads off. When Sydney realized what happened she couldn't help but laugh.
Lily and James made their way to their friends who were laughing at them holding hands.
"Its not funny, get the glue off now!" Lily said.
"I don't know you two look cute together," Sydney said.
"You knew about this " Lily asked hurt.
"No its those two dorks over there that did it" Sydney said.
"Hey were not dorks and sorry Lils the glue won't come off for four hours." Remus said.
"When this glue comes undone I'll live up to my rep with you two well maybe only Sirius how could I hurt a cutie like Remus" she said.
"Ha Ha you made her mad Sirius. I don't know Lils how could you hurt a stud muffin like Sirius? His looks are the only thing he has," Sydney joked.
"Your right Syd he needs all the help he can get. Truce you two?" she said seriously.
"Fine truce" Remus and Sirius said.
"As a peace offering you want gum? "Lily asked
"Nuhun Sydney has to have the first piece," Sirius said
"I'm hurt you don't trust me?" Lily asked. Her and Sydney had planned on them not trusting the gum so had slipped a real one in. "Here eat up and tell them its fine
"Oh its minty thanks Lils." But I don't know if you should give them any after what they did to you" Sydney said.
"Please will be nice" Sirius said.
About that time Petunia tried to stand up. She couldn't and screamed, "Lily what have you and your freak friends done to me!" Sirius, Remus and James all looked at each other and tried not to grin.
"Y'all were going to glue me to a chair! Oh well you got petunia instead I'll give you some gum just for the scene she made." Lily gave it to all them.
They were chewing and Sirius was truing to complain that the gum doesn't taste minty but no words came out. Remus and James looked at him moving his mouth them tried to ask what he said but they made no sound. They turned and glared at Lily and Sydney who were laughing hysterically.
"I think this out does both their pranks," Sydney said.
"Yea and now I don't have to listen to James complain about being stuck to me" Lily said.
"I don't think he would have complained," Sydney said with a smile at James who tried to hit her but his right hand was glued to lily and he couldn't do it with his left.
"Lily let go of that boys hand," William Evans Lily's dad said.
"Sorry daddy but I'm glued to him and it wont come undone for four hours." Lily explained.
"Ok princess. But if he tries anything I'll break every bone in his body." He threatened.
James opened his mouth and tried to say something but nothing came out.
"Speak up boy I can't hear a bloody think you're saying"
"Whoops dad James can't talk right now he's temporally lost his voice." Lily said with a grin.
"Don't want to know what you did princess but keep it up." Lily's father said. All of the boys turned and looked at Lily then her father Mr. Evans started laughing at their expressions. "I see you got them all. You two girls have to keep them on their toes." Mr. Evans said as he walked off and James could only stick his tong out at Lily.
Lily's father walked up again to see James and lily making faces at each other. "Hope your faces don't freeze that way." All the friends looked at him. "Lily I forgot to give you your birthday present. Here 100 pounds for your school supplies because I am not sure how much it will be. Also here is 50 pounds to buy yourself a present and 20 to buy an owl for me so I can send you letters. While your there Mr. Potter is going to open a vault there at Gringotts for you with 1000 pounds to start with. I have to leave tomorrow so have fun at Diagon alley." Lily's friends were all staring at her.
"Thank you daddy. Have fun on your trip and I'll miss you." Lily said as she hugged him.
After Mr. Evans walked away James exclaimed "Lily were going to have so much fun at Diagon alley. Your parents are getting you an owl?"
"Yes their getting an owl. Hey! How can you talk again? Your not suppose to be able to talk yet." She asked amazed.
"I never chewed the gum just put it in my mouth. Anyways nobody get the best of James H. Potter." And with that James sat down. Sydney had slipped a whoopee cushion on his seat, which made a very rude sound.
"So nobody get the better of James H. Potter? Some muggle jokes are better than magic" Sydney said and everyone laughed, James just scowled.
