Chapter 2
"How did you get Lee from Lily Evans?" Garland asked relieved that his father had answered even one question. He was going to do this project even if he had to go look up everything at the ministry. It wasn't like they didn't have a lot on her, he just wanted more the story about how his father and his mother had met.
"Lee is the ending sound of Lily and the second e is for Evans." He said grabbing another scoop from Garland's bowl. "I got lazy around the end of the first year." He smiled.
"Lily Evans, It's funny you've never told me that name, but it sounds really familiar." He said searching his brain.
"Well I think I know why that is. You know what, I think I should just start from the beginning. Get everything out. It all started twenty-five years ago…"
…I was boarding the train when I bumped into the most, beautiful girl in this entire world. She was the fiftieth person to run into me and send everything to the floor. When I was younger my family was, well they weren't really all that caring, so I didn't have a trunk for me, we didn't even have a handed down one for me to use. She helped me pick everything up and she helped me carry it to an empty compartment. She even apologized. I wasn't sure what was going on. Was someone playing a joke on me?
"What's the catch girl? Are you getting paid to make fun of me or something?" I said throwing as much as I could, especially the things I didn't want her to see in the over compartment.
She turned around. "Making fun of you? No, I don't even know you."
"Oh, well then for that matter I owe you. How can I repay you?"
"No, that's ok. Well there is one thing. This is my first year and I don't have any friends here yet. Would it be alright if sat in here with you?" she sad sitting across from me.
Still not sure if it was a joke I answered. "Yeah, I guess so. And just so you know this is my first year too." I said looking though my pile for my defense against the dark arts book, that I had been reading over and over again since I bought it.
She sighed. "Oh I'm glad. I was afraid I'd have to sit in the hall by myself. I don't make friends very well. My mom says I'm to shy. My dad says it's because I talk too much. My sister says it's because I'm a freak. I personally think it's because I'm ugly. Well I don't know I guess that's the same as what Petunia said." She stopped and looked out the window, I could see her reflection and the mirror and guessed that's what she was looking at too.
"I personally agree with your father. Your sister has to be crazy to think your ugly." I thought out loud not meaning to. He blushed. "Oops."
"We'll thanks. I'll take that as a compliment." She smiled, "So, do you really think I talk a lot."
"We'll I'm sure it can be controllable, but yeah, you do." He said digging through his pile of stuff to find a different book.
"I like you honesty. People who are honest make good friends." She said being a little to obvious.
"I wouldn't make a good friend. I have to many problems." Which was true, because that was the year that my father killed my mother, for wanting a divorce. My dad was a deatheater, and although she didn't mind that she did mind that he was never home. And she always told him so. I was soon to be dragged into the same hell my mother was put through, as soon as my father started to realize that he couldn't help me being his son.
She continued the conversation, "See there you go with being all honest again. No, come on now. Honest, I would be interested in a friendship with you if you were interested in one." She said flatly.
This girl was a little to out right for me. But I had nothing to loose and everything to gain. I had never had a friend before. No, unless you counted pets. I decided I better give myself the benefit of the doubt though. "Alright, I you change you mind though don't worry about apologizing. I'll know you just found someone better." I was being serious but for some reason this made her frown, and then suddenly burst out laughing.
We spent the remaining of the trip in utter silence, which I had no problem with but was surprised. In the few sentences that I'd shared with her I could tell she was a chatterbox. When the train stopped she stood and grabbed some of my things. I felt like I had to say something so I said, "See I told you, you could control it."
She laughed as we walked to a pretty lady who had been shouting that first years were to go with him. "You. And you girl come here." I had seen her once when I went with my father on errand. "You two take the carriages. When you get to the door wait and come in with the rest of us. We can't bring all that stuff in the boats."
We couldn't believe it, we were supposed to take the boats in our first year. Both of us knew it was tradition. All the way to the carriage I heard Lily mumbling about this being a bad omen and I felt bad that I had dragged her into it.
"Dad, I need to take a leak. Can you hold the story?" Garland asked and left without an answer. He held it as long as he could so he could hear as much as he could. The two hadn't exchanged names yet, but he was sure he knew who the girl was that had to have been Lily. That had to be his mom. Garland came running in from the bathroom, ready to hear the rest of the story and slid to a halt next to the couch. "Can we talk in here my butt hurts from that chair."
"I call the chair then." There was only one chair in the living room. The only thing that Snape couldn't live without in that room was the DVD player. They had around six hundred DVD's and watched three every night before they went to bed. He was known for hating muggles, and he did, but he loved most of the things that they had.
"Oh then I get to be the little baby getting ready for story time?" Garland said with a baby voice.
"Good point you can have the chair." Snape said sitting on the floor. Snape did every thing in his power to let Garland know that he loved him. And after this he would need all the bribing in the world. "Well, back to the story then I guess. I'll skip to the carriage ride.
"There's one over here that has seats left." They got in and found three other people. "Hi my name is Lily and this is, actually I don't know your name. What is it?"
"You don't need to know my name." I said scooting into a bulky blond kid.
"If were going to be friends than I think it would be easier." The girl Lily said.
"What do you want to call me? I answer to everything. Boy, you, even hey you. Which one do you prefer?" I said sarcastically.
"Listen I don't like your attitude won' bit, just tell me your name?"
"Oh for the lords sake tell her your name. You two are giving me a headache." Said the blond boy.
"My name is Snape."
"Snape?" she asked questionably.
"That is my last name."
"Oh, well then what's your first name?" she asked a little peeved.
"Severes." He said blankly.
"Let me guess," said the girl across from him, "Your dada's name is Samuel?"
"However did you know!" I said a stupid voice rolling my eyes.
"My name is Alice Little and this is Frank Longbottom. We're in our second year." The girl said ignoring Snape's rude remark. The carriage came to a halt. "What year are you in?"
"This is our first year. We were told to take the carriages because of all this stuff." And she grabbed the stuff to get out of the carriage.
"Well I hope one of you will join me in Ravenclaw or Frank here in Gryffindor." Said Alice.
"Our me in Slytherin." They looked over at him. "What nobody was paying attention to me. I felt lonely." He said pretending to pout and laying his head on Lily's shoulder. She pushed his head off. "Next time you should ask before putting your head on my shoulder." She said and she began to walk faster. She had my stuff so I tried to keep up with her.
"Oh like I would take the time to do that, you little bitch."
"Hey wait." I screamed. The next thing I knew I was on the ground with my face in the mud and the shirt that I owned on the ground next to me. The robe that I was wearing was once my mom's when she went to this school. It was kind of shabby but she had worked on it a little before she died. I was a mama's boy so this was a treasure in my eyes. I loved that robe."
"I still have that robe you know. I was going to give it to you when you started school. Just to look at not to wear. They're a little on the dilapidated but there still hers. But then you went to Durmstrang and I decided I couldn't part with it anyway."
I stood up and brushed myself off. My mom had been at least six feet when she wore this and I was a little over five-five. Lily had noticed and came over to help me pick up my stuff for the second time that night. "Are you ok Severes?" she asked using my first name. I wasn't used to that. Actually I wasn't used to hearing my name at all. In my house my name was 'kid' so I was a little shocked.
"I'm fine." I said ripping my underwear out from her hands. Apparently this girl was not big on privacy.
Snape looked over at the over at the clock. "Lets say I order us some pizza?" Snape asked.
"I want to hear more of the story"
"When the pizza gets here."
"If he says it's anymore than a twenty minute wait then you have to start anyway."
"Okay. Okay." Snape said. He called and there was a fifteen to twenty minute wait so Snape had time to cool down. Soon in the story The Marauders would be introduced and Snape wasn't sure if he was ready to introduce the person he hated most in his lifetime. James Potter.
