Lily grabbed her bags and said her one last good by to her mother and father. Lily looked around for her sister, Petunia but she was no where to be seen. Mrs. Evans wiped her eyes with her sleeve.
"Right, now you be good Lily, listen to her mother and it would be good to hear from you once in awhile. Send us one of those nice owls, ok dear?" She said embracing her daughter in the tenth hug this morning.
"Ok mum," Lily said trying to breathe. Her mother released her and Lily went to her dad.
"Have funny honey, we'll write to you saying how Europe is going." Mr. and Mrs. Evans and Petunia were going to visit all of Europe while Lily was gone. Lily had chosen to stay with Rose instead.
Lily waved one last good bye and then grabbed a handful of Floo. "1125 North Oak, Stillings, England." Lily threw in four large suitcases and then walked into the fireplace. Flames sprung up around her body and Lily felt uncomfortable. The Floo Network had setup the fireplace for only an hour for Lily to be able to travel to Rose's house.
"Aah!" Lily yelped tripping over her suitcase which was lying in the living room of Rose's house.
"Eeek!" A girl's voice screamed, smothering Lily in a hug.
"Thanks Rose I missed you too," Lily said hugging Rose back. Lily looked around the living room of Rose's house. Rose was well… rich. Her parents owned an estate and had built this house on top of it. Few people lived by Rose; Lily remembered only seeing two or three houses by Roses when she last visited her house.
"Here let me take some of those," Rose said grabbing two of Lily's bags and the two of them made their way to the other side of the house were Rose's room was. "Here's you room," Rose said opening a door of the long hallway. Lily marveled how pretty everything was. It was the pink room, Lily guessed, she knew Rose had the red room. Each room was decorated a different color.
"It's great!" Lily said flinging her bags to the floor.
"Ok Lily we're going swimming! Get your swim suit on, and bring shoes for we can go walking around afterwards." Rose said as she was leaving.
Lily dressed quickly and put some shorts on and grabbed her flip flops from one of her suitcases. Rose was already waiting for Lily outside in the hallways, "About time!" Rose said leading Lily down the steps. Lily smiled; Rose was always quick on everything she did.
After awhile swimming got boring so the girls put on their shorts and shoes and headed of the large patio into the wooded area of the estate.
"How many people live around here?" Lily asked as she picked a flower of a bush.
"Uh, not many," Rose said.
"What do you mean, 'uh'?" Lily asked Rose. It sounded like she was up to something.
"Well I know this guy and he lives right behind our estate and he has this really hot friend, and I thought maybe we could spend all summer over there," Rose said quickly.
"Sure, that sounds fun! I'd love to go. What's their names?" Lily said, she wanted a summer love after all. And hot friend sounded good.
"Sirius and James," Rose in a mumble/half cough.
"What!" Lily said as she stopped walking, "Hot friend my ass! I can't believe Potter lives by you! Even on summer break I can't get away from him!"
"But Lily you said that you would go! Please do it for me?" Rose said begging to Lily.
Lily rolled her eyes. She knew Rose had the biggest crush on Sirius, "Fine, but I'm only doing this for you. Just keep Potter away from me!"
"Deal!" Rose said, "Ok let's go!" She said grabbing my hand giving it a tug.
"Now? Do you realize what were wearing?" Lily looked down, they were both wearing swimming tops and shorts, "Do you realize were going to visit to teenage boys? Two hormonal teenage boys!"
"I know," Rose grinned wickedly, "It'll be great!"
Lily sighed and went along with the ride.
