A/n Okay there isn't really much to say in the first A/n of a story but this is from the author of Complete Opposites and I hope you enjoy.
Lily Evans smiled shyly, her refection mirroring the image. Over the summer she had changed and it was time she knocked Ja…Potter's socks off. Her once long red hair was cut just to her shoulder blades, strait as always. She didn't have the perfect body that everyone wished to have, but she had a nice one. Her hips curved more than the year before and her assets had enlarged too. Her green eyes were brighter than ever and freckles dotted her nose, she hated those freckles. They could make a sixteen year old, like herself, look years younger. She hadn't grown much in height over the summer; she was still around 5'3'', being one of the shortest people in her year. It was the first day of school and she planned to make an impact. A green halter top accented her eyes and an ankle length skirt gave her a classy look.
She sighed and looked out her window. Across the street was a large house. He lived in that house. Lily had never hated anyone in her life, well one person but she doesn't count, and in return no one hated her. Then he came along. It wasn't always like that though. You see for the first five years of Hogwarts James Potter and Lily Evans were inseparable. After all they had been best friends since they were born. James asked her out the middle of fifth year and she was ecstatic, after all it was like out of a fairy tale, they were first best friends then they fell in love. And fall in love she did, he didn't however. A month into their relationship Lily caught him snogging with Cindy Henderson, her enemy. He had cheated on her with her bloody enemy. And so ended their friendship.
Lily had been hurt, bad. Her two best friends, Arabella Figg and Cassie Black were the only two she talked too. They were the only ones who hated the Marauders as much as she did, though Cassie's twin was one of them.
A sigh escaped from her lips again as she put her sunglasses on her head and grabbed her black bag. Her mom, sister, and father were all waiting and the four arrived at Kings Cross in a matter of minutes. Lily hated goodbyes; she thought them to be so gloomy.
"Bye sweetie, write soon." Her mom said in between tears.
"Mum, stop crying, I'll be back for Christmas. And how many times do I have to tell you, its not good bye it's I'll see you in three months," after her little speech she said the rest of her 'see-ya's' and went onto the plat form.
"Lily," Lily turned around to see Arabella running towards her. She was only 5'5'' with strait brown hair that was cut a little below her chin. Her blue eyes sparkled upon seeing her friend and were brought out by her blue tank top and jeans.
"What did you do to your hair," the two asked in unison. Arabella's had been as long as Lily's when they left school.
"I cut it," they had done it again.
"Can you two stop talking at the same time long enough to say hello to me?" Cassie Black was the tallest of the three with black hair that curled at the ends and hazel eyes alive with mischief. She was the female replica of her brother, Sirius.
"Cassie," they both yelled before hugging her.
"Now you two are freaking me out,"
"We live to serve," Arabella said as they pulled their trunks onto the train.
Cassie rolled her eyes and sat down in the nearest, empty, compartment.
Arabella, being the hyper one of the three, couldn't sit still. As soon as the train started moving she was singing muggle TV. show themes. (A/n this is what I do in school)
"Meet the Flintstones, they're a modern Stone Age family, from the, town of bedrock…." Lily had to smile, she loved her friends.
Fifteen minutes later, Arabella was still at it though she had moved onto the pink panther theme.
"Did you have sugar this morning?" Cassie asked closing her book, Gone with the wind (a/n good book)
"Much, much sugar," She started bouncing up and down rocking the seat Lily was on.
"Stop before I hog tie you and hand you over to Sirius," Lily said only to be answered by a terrified look.
"You…..you wouldn't" Arabella hated Sirius more than Lily hated James. It was funny though, they were perfect for each other.
"Oh yes I would." Needless to say she shut up for the rest of the ride.
"How did you learn those songs? They're muggle," Cassie asked looking up from her book.
"My wonderful father," at this Arabella rolled her eyes. Sarcastism was evident from every word. She hated her father more than she hated Sirius. "decided he wanted me too live as a muggle all summer."
"Poor you," Cassie replied grinning. She herself was a pure blood but stayed with muggle family because her parents disapproved with her being friends with muggle born Lily and half blood Arabella. Cassie felt them to be egotistical rich I'm-better-than-you prats who had no reason to live than to drink tea with their equally rich and snobby friends. Seconds later a loud voice came from down the train. It was a male voice singing the very song Arabella was a few minutes ago, the pink panther theme.
The compartment door swung open to reveal four teenage boys. The tallest was the exact replica of Cassie, dark hair and hazel eyes. He had a well toned body and a very mischievous atmosphere. The second one had messy black hair and chocolate brown eyes. He had what was called boyish charm. The third one was slightly shorter than the other two with light brown hair and storm grey eyes. (a/n I decided that he uses magic to make himself look healthy) The final one was slightly less attractive than the other three; he had blond hair and blue eyes. He also lacked the muscles though he had an average body.
The first one was humming Arabella's song.
"SIRIUS ORION BLACK, STOP SINGING MY SONG!" The brunette was tweaked.
"Oh but Arabella, dahling, it sounds sooooooooo good coming from me," He flashed her a charming smile that made her glare.
"GET OUT" Lily screamed holding Arabella, who was about to pound Sirius, back.
"Lily, this is the only empty compartment left," the second one said, hesitantly.
"Potter don't you dare, I mean dare, call me by my first name and I don't care if you have to sit in the hall. GET OUT," Lily screamed her eyes blazing.
James smirked and retorted "Red heads always have the worst tempers," Lily screamed and slapped him, leaving a red mark on his cheek the color of her hair.
"I suggest you get out," Carrie said calmly.
"Good idea." The third one, Remus Lupin, said before ushering them out.
"Lils," Arabella whispered.
"Yeah,"
"My arm," Lily had been squeezing Arabella's arm with all her strength and had left a purple bruise on the girl.
"Oh god, Bella, I'm so sorry. Potter just gets me so worked up…"Lily sat back down followed by Arabella who was massaging her arm.
"Well duh," Cassie said sitting so her back was leaning on the window. "He's a egotistical jerk. And I've known him all my life,"
"Lucky you," Lily laughed as the train came to a stop and the three girls entered their 6th year at Hogwarts.
The sorting flew by with Sirius yelling at the hat to hurry up and James smacking him on the head.
"Welcome students!
First off before the feast," at the Sirius groaned "hold on Mr. Black. First years and a few select sixth
years should know the Forbidden Forest is indeed
forbidden. On a litter note I would like to introduce our new Transfiguration
teacher, Professor McGonagall and our new defense against the dark arts teacher
June Figg," when the last name was pronounced Lily, Bella, and Cassie screamed
in delight. Dumbledore smiled widely.
"Now Mr. Black you can eat." The three
girls ate quickly then jumped up and ran over to Arabella's older sister by
three years. She was tall with dark brown hair to her mid back and brown eyes.
She looked a lot like Arabella.
"Jen, what are you doing here?" Arabella asked hugging her sister tight.
"I'm teaching La," Arabella cringed at the oh too familiar nick name. Truthfully her sister was the only thing that kept her alive summer holidays, besides Cassie and Lily that is.
"a) Don't call me that b) why didn't you tell me and c) you could have saved me this summer!" Bella said tucking her hair behind her ears.
"I didn't tell you because I wanted it to be a surprise and I couldn't have saved you. I was out of the country."
"Crap, sorry June but we really have to go," The great hall had cleared out and it was only the four and the Marauders in the room.
"Okay I'll see you tomorrow in class though," June watched as the three left the Great Hall her little sister singing to some muggle show theme. She wasn't just here to teach, she had a mission. Months before she had met up with an old friend in America. Everything so far had gone as planned, but then he screwed it up. She sighed and thought "My mission is simple reunite the three with the Marauders. And I have to do it soon," The young professor headed off down the hall, her heals clanking against the stone floor.
An: Okay first chapter done. Okay I know it sounds a little confusing with what's going threw June's mind but does everything that goes threw your mind always make sense. I'm sorry to my other readers of C.O. the sequel I was caught up in working on this. Hope you liked it.
