"Lily! Lily! Hurry up darling, you're going to miss the train!" called Mrs. Evans from the bottom of the stairs.

"I'm coming Mom!" yelled Lily from her room. She was frantically pinning her Head Girl badge to her shirt, and doing a last-minute search of her room.

"We'll be in the car." called Mr. Evans as he closed the front door.

Lily ran down the stairs at top speed, and as she was going through the kitchen she bumped into someone, or rather that someone bumped into her. As she looked up from the floor she saw the glaring eyes of her sister, Petunia. "Watch where you're going, bitch." snarled Petunia as she strutted into the family room.

Lily shook herself off as she rushed into the family station wagon, and buckled her seat belt as her parents zoomed off to Kings Cross. After the conversation ceased between parents and daughter, Lily put her head to the cool glass of the car window, and started to think.

Lily Sharon Evans had everything a girl could ever want. She had looks. Lily was standing 5'5, was slim but had curves, and had filled out nicely during her years. She had gorgeous fire-red hair that was naturally wavy and fell to her waist. Her emerald green eyes were enchanting, and her smile lit up a room. She was wearing bell-bottom pants, a colorful tank top, a peace sign necklace, and platform shoes. Lily was a witch, and was extremely pleased with that fact. She went to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, was a top student, never once received a detention, and best of all, was named Head Girl over the summer. It seemed that Lily lived a perfect life.

There were things though, that Lily wished she could give away. First off, she was always teased at school because she was a "Mudblood". Even though Lily loved her parents, she sometimes wished they were magical. Also, besides being picked on at school, she was picked on at home by her damned sister, Petunia. Lastly, Lily Evans, the most beautiful girl in school, had never been lucky in love. Sure, everyone knew James Potter had a huge crush on her, but Lily kept denying his foolish offers to be his girlfriend.

Their car pulled into King's Cross station and Lily got her trunks, bags, and owl, Spirit together. Lily and her parents walked to platforms 9 and 10 and said their farewells. When they made sure no body was looking, Lily jogged into the barrier, and arrived on Platform 9 ¾, right before the gleaming Hogwarts Express.

"Lily! Lily! Over here!" called Sirius Black, one of Lily's good friends, from a compartment window. Lily rushed into the train, and flew into the compartment to be embraced by a mob of people: James, Sirius, Remus, Terry, and Katy.

"We were looking all over for you!"

"We thought you forgot today was the first day of school!"

"You're the Head Girl, congrats, I knew you would be!"

As the train started to move, Lily sat down, and got a good look at each and every of her friends.

Sirius Black was the sexiest, hottest guy in all of Hogwarts. He had shaggy, black hair that fell into his eyes, and stood at 6 foot. He was a beater on the Quidditch team, and had a great body. Every girl fantasized of being his girlfriend, but most of the time, he left a girl after two weeks, but he was with Katy for almost a whole year.

Katy Boyd was a very pretty girl, was one of Lily's best friends and was perfect for Sirius. She had perfectly straight, pretty blonde hair and turquoise eyes that boys got lost in. Katy was a top-notch student, and the teachers loved her. She stood 5'4 and was slim but had a good athletic build from playing keeper on the Quidditch team. Katy and Sirius were a cute couple who loved each other more than anything.

James Potter was also a very cute and hot boy who went to Hogwarts. The only girl he loved was Lily, and that would never change. He played seeker on the Quidditch team, and had a sexy athletic build. He had unruly, messy, bold black hair that never went straight. He stood a tall 6'1 and had warm brown eyes that sparkled when he laughed. He and Sirius were best of friends, and got more detentions than every student in the school combined.

Terry Murphy was another pretty girl, and another of Lily's best friends. She was currently single, and looked for every opening to get a guy. Terry stood at 5'4 ½ and was also skinny. She loved reading and soaked up every word with deep hazel eyes. She was a curly brunette, and was a top-notch student. She wasn't really into sports, but supported her house Quidditch team, every game.

Lastly, there was Remus Lupin. Remus wasn't exactly a hot guy, but he was very kind and an excellent student. His secret of being a werewolf had not changed anything about his social life. He had been named Head Boy. Remus had sandy hair and baby blue eyes. He tried hard not to get detention with his friend, though he wasn't always successful. His best friends were Sirius and James. Together they were the Marauders. Peter Pettrigrew was a Marauder too, but he and his family mysteriously disappeared over the summer.

Lily grinned at her friends as the train rolled on through the countryside. Soon, the snack cart came around, and the boys spent a fortune on snacks, but happily shared them with the girls. Soon, the boys started to play Exploding Snap, and the girls started to gossip.

"So, Terry who's your big crush this year?" asked Lily slyly.

"Well guys, I don't have a crush, but don't get worried, but Lucius Malfoy is getting hotter every year." confessed Terry shyly.

Katy nearly choked on an Every Flavored Bean and then flung her arms around Terry and cried, "we've lost her to the dark side!" The girls all laughed at that, and the boys looked at them strangely.

Soon after that, Katy and Sirius started snogging and once they started, nothing could separate them. Lily rolled her eyes at this and then her and Remus went to a Head meeting.

When they came back, Sirius and Katy were still going at it and Terry and James had fallen asleep on each other's shoulders. So, Lily and Remus eagerly started talking about Head duties until everyone changed into their robes. Lily and Remus proudly pinned their Head Girl and Boy badges to the front of their robes and the train came to a screeching stop.

Little did Lily know, as everybody rushed off the trains, that someone totally unexpected had his eye on her and was collecting courage to ask her out.
