I revised every chapter, looked over every word. I added some more detail and stuff. I finally have the time right.
So anyways, I hope you like this chapter better!
Chapter One- The Year Ends
"Alright, see you guys later!" Madison smiled waving at her two best friends while walking off platform 9 and 3/4.
It was just a girl with long straight black hair with blue eyes and another petite girl with long red hair and emerald eyes.
"Well, there's my mom." Ann said with sad eyes. "I'll see you in a few weeks at Madison's." she said giving her best friend a hug. "Bye Lily." she said walking away form the red head.
Lily sighed and saw her parents no where in sight. What a surprise she thought silently to herself. Someone had picked her up from behind and twirled her around. She smelt the faint smell of cinnamon and smiled. "Hey Paddy." she said playfully.
"I hate when you call me that." a tall boy with black hair and deep grey- blue eyes said.
Lily smiled at Sirius. "Well, I hate it when you call me Tiger Lily. We're even." she said.
"SIRIUS!" A old woman screeched.
Sirius' smile turned to a frown and sighed. "Well Tiger Lily, it seems that we must part." he said sappily.
Lily laughed. "Oh save it." she said. "See you later." she said hugging him and then he gave her a kiss on the cheek, disappearing.
"See you Lily." A boy with sandy short blonde hair and watery blue eyes said from next to Lily.
"Bye Remus." she said with a hint of sadness and hugged him as well.
"It was a great year." He said smiling.
"Yeah, it was." she said smiling back up at him.
"I'm glad we're all friends." he said.
Lily smiled, "Oh god Remus, how will I ever survive without your wisdom?" she asked.
Remus bent down to hug her, "You'll survive." he said. "I've got to go." he said letting her go.
"Bye." she said from behind him as he walked off.
"Looks like it's you and me Lily flower." a voice said.
Lily instantly smiled and beamed up at the tall boy with hazel eyes. "Looks like it Potter." she said.
"Come on Lils, lighten up! You'll see them again." James said looking into her eyes.
Lily smiled. "God James, you can read me like an open book."
"It's not always bad." he said.
"Why's that?" she asked.
He slung an arm around her. "Cauze I know when you get really mad. I can back off." he said.
She leaned into him. "It's been a great year." she said.
"I can't believe that next year will be out last." James said looking sadly around.
Lily sighed. "Well, there's my mother." she said unhappily.
James smiled and kissed her on the cheek. "You'll survive." he said.
Lily picked up her trunk. "I always do." she said and walked away.
"Don't forget to write me!" James called after her.
"I won't!" She yelled without looking back. Before she walked off the platform she turned and gave James a smile and a little wave goodbye.
He beamed at her in return and watched her walk away.

"Daddy!" Lily said happily running through the door. A tall man with short red hair stood up out of his chair and hugged his sixteen year old daughter.
"Hey Lils." he said. "Welcome home." he said happily.
"Daddy, Madison wants me to come over the last month of the summer and Remus wants me to come over the two weeks before. Can I go?" she asked.
Mr. Evans frowned. "Who else is going to Remus'?" he asked.
Lily laughed. Her dad could be so overprotective. "Ann, Madison, Sirius and James." she said.
"I don't know." He said uncertainty.
"Please?" she begged.
He smiled. "Alright." he gave in.
"YES!" she screamed. "I'll go write them!" she said running up the stairs.
"What are you so happy about freak?" A horse looking girl said scowling.
Lily snapped back, "I don't have to spend the whole summer here with you." she said sourly.
Petunia smiled the best she could. "Good." she said and walked off, her nose high in the air.
Lily opened her bedroom door and walked in, she instantly felt at home. He room was big with deep blue walls. She had a king size bed with ocean blue sheets and a canopy to match. Opposite of that was a huge bay window complete with a window seat. Looking out of it, you could see big plush green hills and a tree here and there. In her room also was cherry wood furniture set including a vanity, dresser, desk, side table and a trunk at the end of her bed.
You saw two doors. One led to her double closet, which was filled with designer clothes and handbags. The other led to her own bathroom. It had white marble flooring, a huge spa bathtub and a shower that fit three people in it. (But would she, was the real question. lol.)
She went and sat down at her desk in her brown leather chair and pulled out some parchment, ink and a quill. She wrote,
Madison-
My dad said yes! I'll see you at Remus'.
-Lils
And wrote another one,
Remus,
Hey! My dad said that I could come. James and Sirius are coming right? Anyways, I can't wait to go over! It's hell over here with my mom and Petunia.
Lily.
"Hey Emerald!" Lily said as her owl flew up to her room. "Take this to Madison and Remus alright?" she asked. Without a hoot, her pure white owl took off.
Lily sighed and twirled around in her chair a few times. I think I'll go flying. She thought. She went downstairs to her trunk and pulled out her Comet 360, the fastest broom on the market so far. James, Sirius, Remus, Ann and Madison had all chipped in to buy it for her birthday.
"I'm going flying!" She said as she walked out to her porch and took off.
Lily loved flying, and was very good at it. At Hogwarts, her Remus and James were the chasers. Sirius and Madison were beaters. Ann was keeper and some boy names Stephen Fresh was seeker.
It wasn't until this year that they were all friends. Lily looked back at the memories of her first five years and laughed. It was stupid how James and her used to fight. But in their sixth year they finally gave in and called it truce.
She had to admit it, James grew on her. She now found him funny at times, serious when he needed to be and extremely loyal.
She loved Sirius and Remus as brothers too. Sirius was the one who made her smile in the darkest times, and was a great guy to have fun with. But when it came to personal matters, he got serious as his name and went to work.
Remus was totally sweet and reasonable. He was not only the brains, the common sense in the group. He kept everyone in check and brought them back to reality when they needed it.
Madison was a girl version of Sirius. She was funny, and passed every class with extreme ease.
Ann was sweet and quite, but when she was with the girls, she was loud and outgoing.
Lily loved her friends and loved Hogwarts. Hogwarts had been more of a home to her than her own. She found the library to be a great sanctuary, but not as great as the Room of Requirements as the Marauders called it. It was always exactly what she wanted, when she wanted it.
But flying had it's own special place in her heart. It helped her think, clear her mind and escape reality for a while. No more worrying about the rising threat of the Dark Lord, or the pressure to be perfect and get great grades in school. It was just the sky and her.
Lily's thoughts of Hogwarts drifted to her crush, James Potter. He'd ask her out every day in the past, but she always hid her feelings. If she gave up, her reputation as the 'Ice Queen' would be demolished, and she couldn't give that up.
She loved everything about James. The way his hair was always messed up and never lay flat. She loved his muscular body and his great sense of humor. But what she loved the most was his eyes. They were hazel at first glance, but when you got close enough and looked hard enough you would see flecks of every color from red to even purple. His eyes showed all of his emotions, even when his face didn't.
She turned around and headed home only to fall asleep thinking of James Potter.
