Lily Evans was called to the Headmasters office. So went the rumours at Hogwarts. Terrified the young girl trailed behind MacGonnagal. What could she possibly have done? She was so distressed, in fact, that she missed the whole trip, and was truly surprised when she noticed she was standing before Dumbledore. He gestured towards a chair, and she seated herself. He then proceeded to sort some of the papers on his desk. Finally he leaned back in his chair and fixed his blue gaze on the tiny redheaded, green-eyed girl in front of her. She was visibly shaking. His eyes twinkled as he turned to a parchment on his desk.
"Do you know what this is miss Evans?" He asked her. She shook her head, red hair bouncing about her face, green eyes gleaming hugely.
"This is your exam-results." Dumbledore said lightly, and he could only imagine what had to be chiming inside her head at this moment. Things like 'You've failed!' and 'You're so bad you've been expelled!' and 'I knew I was a muggle!' probably flew by repeatedly, along with things like 'I knew I didn't belong here...'
He smiled at her.
"These are one of the highest scores ever achieved by a first year." He said lightly and fixed his gaze at her, waiting for his words to sink in. Lily looked absolutely flabbergasted.
"I-I-" She began shakingly. "I mean—that can't be!"
"Oh, I assure you it can." Dumbledore said. "And now we were wondering if you would consider being transferred to start your third year next September first." Lily looked at her Headmaster, her mouth opening and closing in silent wonder.
"Of course!" She said at last.
"If you think I'd do better a year ahead, I'll do it!" Dumbledore beamed in response.
"Wonderful!" He exclaimed.
"You'll expect some extra homework over the vacation, and surely you'll need a little time catching up with the rest, but I'm sure you'll do brilliantly! MacGonnagal will arrange your transfer immediately." MacGonnagal stepped forward and nodded, and then brought Lily out again. She walked as if a daze back to Gryffindors common room, where her friends spared no means in figuring out what had happened in the Headmasters office.
