Choice twenty seven: Lily
I'm Head Girl, I mean I'm Head Girl. It's fantastic I was at home with Scarlett when the owl came and I couldn't stop bouncing around the room it was so funny, it was even something that my parents understood, which is always great in my mind.
From among my eagerness I heard Scarlett yelling that she made prefect, she took my job and we just started bouncing all over again. Dad handed us both glasses that he filled up with wine and that night we went out for a special meal in a posh restaurant and we had champagne it was just brilliant.
Then of course I sent Sevie and owl and told him, he was a bit upset I think that he didn't make Head Boy but he was still very happy for me. But that left me thinking who was Head Boy. I thought of sending an owl to Remus but held back wanting to tell him the news in person and let him tell me in person if he was Head Boy.
Well when we got to the platform I found Remus almost instantly, he was standing over in a corner with Black and Potter two of the most annoying guys I've ever met in my life. I guessed they were waiting for Pettigrew to arrive.
Anyway I grabbed hold of Scarlett and ran over to them and stopping right behind Remus, Black winked at me. I scowled as Remus turned around and hugged him, I saw the surprise on both Potter and Blacks faces but I just smiled at Remus and showed him my badge. He hugged me again but I could see that he wasn't Head Boy because he had on his prefect badge.
Well we got on the train and Scarlett and I went to the prefect's carriage and I swear I thought I was going to die when I saw Potter standing there. Yep that's right guess who was made Head Boy it all started to go down hill from there.
Strange thing though Potter wasn't as annoying as he always seemed to be before. He didn't bug me but sat with me and had in depth conversations about all sorts. We were doing a few similar subjects, well transfiguration, charms, potions and care of magical creatures. In fact the only difference is that he has chosen defence against the dark arts while I decided on arithmancy.
We spent hours discussing homework and I have to admit he is excellent at transfiguration he managed to explain Animagi to me which was something I was struggling with and in return I helped him with a few charms he was finding difficult.
It was strange really all that time we wasted fighting about stupid things when we could have been friends. Yep that's right I'm not sure when it happened but James Potter became my friend and it wasn't just James it was Sirius and Peter as well.
I was always told that if you could count the number of friends you had on one hand you were lucky I guess that I am lucky because now I have some great friends and if I hadn't have been made Head Girl I would never have known.
I can't believe that I had never gotten to know the boys before but once James and I started working together I chose to get to know them all and now I'm happy to say that I have three new great friends and Remus was right all those times he told me they were great people. I can't wait now to learn even more about them.
