JadeGreen14: Thanks for the review! Here's that update you wanted! ; D

The next day, Lily and her parents, (Petunia stayed at home) drove to the King's Cross Station. Lily waved goodbye to her parents and ran through the barrier. She found her friend, Krystal, and told her she was going to the head's compartment since she had made head girl. Then, she carried her trunk to the head's compartment and sat down.

As she looked around, she noticed that the head's compartment was much roomier than the rest of the train. It was like a mini common room. She was sitting on a large couch and as she looked around, she saw many different and interesting things including a cupboard stocked with all the items in the cart the lady with the trolley pushed, a table to eat on, and a bookshelf!

She went to the bookshelf and picked out a book. It seemed to be charmed to know which books the head students liked. It included all her favorites, but there was some books she thought were a bit out of place there were books like 1001 Tips for Prankers and How Not to Get Caught: A Guide for Pranking.

What kind of head student would like pranking? She plopped down onto the couch, opened her book, and began to read. Then the door slid open.

"Evans? You're the head girl? Great, we'll have fun together!"

Lily gasped in shock. She knew that voice…

"Potter? You're the head boy?!" She looked at the shiny gold badge pinned to his robes. She groaned. How could Dumbledore do this to me? Then she decided that since she was head girl, she might as well be polite.

"Come in."

"Thanks."

He stepped inside and charmed his trunk to fly up to the storage area. Then he grabbed his owl cage and tucked that safely into the storage area as well. Lily gaped at the snowy owl. Why does it seem so familiar?

"Are you all right Lily? You've been staring at my owl for the past five minutes. Though I'm sure it's cute, you don't need to stare at it."

Lily was snapped out of her thoughts.

"Ha ha Potter. Very funny."

And she spent the rest of the train ride reading her book in silence. When the train finally slowed down, she helped the first years get across the lake and then sat down at her house table.

After the sorting and the feast, Dumbledore called Lily and James to his office. They went and knocked on the door. It slowly creaked open and out stepped the wise and famous wizard.

"Good evening. As you should know, the head students get a room all to themselves. The entrance is on the sixth floor behind the portrait of Lady Florefe. The password is winter sky. You two can change the portrait at will, just speak to the portrait. Goodbye!"

Lily and James said goodbye to the headmaster and walked down to the portrait. When they stepped inside, they were amazed. They were inside a giant rectangular room. On the left side, there was a door labeled head boy. On the right side, there was a door labeled head girl. It seemed that they each got their own bathroom too. Finally, there was a door directly in front of them that said "Enchanted Room." They stepped inside of it. There was nothing in it. At that point, Lily wished that there was a giant library to look at. The room suddenly transformed into a giant library.

"Wow!" said Lily looking around.

"Wow what?"

"It seems that the room is charmed to morph into what we want at the time we are in the room."

"Cool, let me try."

Just as suddenly as the room transformed into the library, in its place stood a giant quidditch field.

"James! Change it back!"

"James? Since when have you called me that?"

"Never mind, just change it back!"

"No, I like it this way."

"Fine, I'm going to bed then. Good night."

She left the room and headed towards her bedroom. She sighed as she changed into her pajamas. She flopped onto her bed.

It's good to be home.

However, her last thought before she drifted off to sleep was this – Why had I called him James?

A/N: Hi, hoped you enjoyed the chapter! Remember to review, if I get 3 reviews from different people by the time I write the next chapter, I'll post another spoiler!
