Summary: Here I am, on a plane, to where you might ask, let's just say I'm very far from home, or will be once I get there. It's not like I'm in a hurry to get there, after all it's not like I'm not comfortable, seeing that I, Lily Marie Evans, am one of the daughters of the president of the United States of America……

First Daughter
Great. Just great.

Okay I'm not nervous; Lily Evans hardly ever gets nervous. I'm not nervous, I'm not nervous….oh god, I'm nervous! Okay, just take a deep breath everything is going to be alright in the end……. please tell me it will. Dawn's looking at me…she says

"Don't be nervous. It's not that big of a deal. Well actually, the rest of your Hogwarts career will basically have a huge impact on what house you get in but…" she was rambling and I really didn't want to pay any attention at all to what she was saying.

I listened to the first part of the "speech" and I did want to hear more. I mean would you want to hear more if you were already nervous about something and then someone has rub in how very important that something is? Terri started laughing, and I pretty sure she'd be laughing at my expression.

"What are you laughing about?" I said rather coldly. She stopped and looked about me with a confused face; she probably not expecting my coldness.

"Listen Lily," she started "I know how nervous you are. Heck! I mean most everyone here if you asked if they were really nervous when they were about to be sorted will say yes. I'm one of those people. Just relax, and enjoy yourself."

"I'm really sorry for exploding on you."

"Its alright." she said with a slight smile

You know what? I don't really care anymore. Terri and Dawn don't care what house I get in. And I don't really know anyone else, if someone judges me by the house I get into, there're not worth being friends with. I just heard Terri shout to me to hurry up. "Wait! What about our luggage?" "Don't worry about that! It'll be transported to your dorms later." "What about my cat?" "Him too! Come on now!" I hurry to joined Dawn and Terri in aisle where they were waiting for me.

"Ready?" asked Dawn. "Totally!" I said smiling. I really was ready. Ready to face a whole new world….okay, not really. But anyway, I'm ready. We hopped out of the train. I nearly screamed I was so scared. Because standing in front of me, was a huge person!

"That's just Hagrid. He's nothing to be afraid of." said a voice behind me, an all too familiar voice, James Potter's.

"I never said I was scared."

"Yeah, but the look on your face clearly showed it." he said smirking. I just decided to turn away and join Dawn and Terri who were now talking to this Hagrid fellow.

"Hello!" he said in a booming voice. "You mus be Lily, nice to meet yea, I'm Hagrid." "Pleasure to meet you." I said giving him one of my biggest smiles. He seemed like a decent enough person. "Hagrid, we must be going now! It was wonderful to see you!" said Dawn.

"Good-bye! Member to visit!"

"He seems nice." I said.

"He is," said Terri "we'll go visit him sometimes, he lives over by the Forbidden Forest." Forbidden Forest? Now just where in the world was that, and why did have to be called the Forbidden Forest? I don't think I really want to find out either. I'm so full of questions, but I don't feel like asking someone to answer them, I like to find out things on my own. But it will be pretty hard to answer all these questions on my own. Must direct my questions to Dawn and Terri later.

I realized that I had stopped walking and was standing in a crowd of people who were brushing past me. "Lily! Hurry up!" I heard Terri shout. I must have looked weird just standing there, but hey, everyone has their moments when everyone is just staring at them. This was just one of mine.

I power-walked my way through the students who were all headed towards where Dawn and Terri were standing and hissing at me to hurry up. I mouthed to them to shut up and that I was coming. Jeez. Some people have absolutely no patience…I actually happen to be one. That's pretty funny if you ask me.

I finally reached Dawn and Terri; they were standing in front of a horseless carriage. Patiently glaring at me. Is that even possible?

"You think it took you long enough?" asked Dawn.

"No," I said with a little smile at my lips "I could defiantly take longer. I was literally power-walking."

"Yeah, yeah, whatever," said Dawn interrupting, "hurry up! I want to get to Hogwarts. Man, am I hungry!"

"You are always hungry!" complained Terri.

"Well what a coincidence, so am I." said Sirius who had stepped before them.

"Oh, shove off Black." Dawn said in not a too pleasant voice. Well it's a matter of opinion actually, I mean, if you are some weirdo psychopath and think that murdering someone is pleasant, then yes, the tone of Dawn's voice was very pleasant. But I do hope that none of you do find that pleasant to do.

"Well that wasn't very nice." said Sirius.

"Like I care." said Dawn. "Common Darcy don't be that way." said Sirius slinging an arm over her shoulders in the process.

"Get your dirty, disgusting hands off me Black!" I laughed, I mean what a pleasant relationship they had between the two of them.

"Seriously Dawn, let's just get in the darn carriage before we're late and Lily cannot be late."

I looked around me again, I noticed all the carriages we're gone, and I think I just saw the one in front of me shake….weird.

"Oh, we wont be late, everyone will just be early." Said James. Man, cant he just shut up sometimes?

"Oh, common Prongs, you know they're right. We should be getting into a carriage." Said Remus.

Prongs? What in the world was Remus calling Potter? Stupid silly guy nicknames. Least we, women, use names people actually get where they came from. I heard Potter mutter something to Remus that sounded something like "Don't….names….girls." Oh well, I'm not much of an eavesdropper anyway, unless the information is really juicy.

Then I heard Peter speak for like the first time, he's all like "Guys, it's getting really cold out here, can we go" which was really pathetic if you ask me.

Oh gosh, I think I'm being mean. I try not to do that with people I don't really know, but it just doesn't work, I doubt it works with anyone. It's very hard not to get annoyed with someone like Peter. Anyway, back to reality. I'll just get right to the point, no one has budged, and I'm getting annoyed and fast. Sirius and Dawn were stilling having their little chat and I just everyone was still listening to it. I wanted to go to the castle. And I was going to get my way, I rarely don't get my way, and I know that's bad, but I cant help it if my parents spoil me, I didn't ask to be born to the president and first lady of America, I just was, end of story.

"Okay that's it!" I yelled. Everyone stopped. It was flipping amazing. "There are two carriages, left one for us." I pointed to Dawn and Terri. And one for you marauders. Now everyone beat it. I swear, it was amazing, and very funny from my point of view. First everyone was gaping at me, and then when I said "move it," everyone was gone. Dawn and Terri standing by one carriage and the boys by another. I smirked, I always get my way.

"Let's get in." I said to the girls when I walked to the carriage that they were standing at. They complied, they silently went in, and I was going to go in last because I wanted to make sure the boys got in too. And they did. Soooo now that was taken care of, I felt good again. I stepped into the carriage and sat by Terri. The carriage started, and we were on our way.

I looked at Dawn. She still seemed quite peeved at a certain someone I'm sure we all know. The eyes were also sparkling with something, and I knew what it was, happiness. I guess she was happy to be going back to Hogwarts. The school can't be that bad if Dawn thinks it's cool.

I turned my head and took a Terri. Her hair was tossed back so you could see her eyes. They looked very exquisite in the moons shadowy glare.

The carriage rode smoothly as if a horse was pulling lightly. Everything was basked in the moons radiance and it shimmered like a newly polished glass. That's when I got my first look at Hogwarts. It was magnificent it really was, I swear even AAWW was no match for it. It reminded me of those make-believe castles I used to read about, the ones that have every stone on it shining and the rich king and it kind-hearted queen live in. But this wasn't make-believe. It was real, and the sight just took my breath away.

I just hoped I could call Hogwarts a temporary home.

The sight just got more and more beautiful as we approached the castle. I looked at Dawn and Terri. They looked as awed as I was; I guess the magic of it never wore out in some people's hearts. We arrived on the school grounds and the carriage came to a soft stop. "Well, we're here." Said Terri.

"Home, sweet home." Said Dawn. I got up and stepped out and took a good took at the place I'd be staying for, well, almost 3 years, I could almost picture them. The halls would be filled with laughter and chatting students.

"Ready?" said Dawn again for the second time that night. "Sure." I said. A little sorting is not going to scare me. I am going to walk into the castle a strong person, never quavering, or being unsteady. I want to make a good first impression, but I want to be myself when I do. I want to be liked, but if people don't like me, it'll be alright. "Life goes on; it doesn't stop just for you. Time is the oldest thing alive and it lives through everything, it doesn't shutdown just because something bad happens, it goes on, and is the perfect model for us. Time and life share a close bond, you must space your time to live life the way it really is." My mother said that to me. She knew what I was thinking the day before I was to leave for Hogwarts. I was thinking to never tell my little secret to anyone, but being first daughter isn't exactly a little secret. My life revolves around that stupid little secret. "Old friendships may break, but new ones will be even stronger." Lance has said to me. He knew what I was thinking too, today on the plane, he knew I would be nervous about making friends. Yet here I was with two new friends that I knew I could count on. (A/N: I thought about ending it there but I decided you guys deserve a longer chapter because I haven't updated in a while.)

Dawn, Terri, and I walked to the door that would begin our year as friends. Let the good times begin.

Thank god that we weren't late though. There were still a couple of students milling about reluctant to go inside seeing as it was a beautiful starry night. Every star in the universe seemed visible that night, all of them competing with each other about who could shine the brightest. We saw the marauders ahead of us paying no attention to the castle or the starry night. The were laughing about something, whatever it was I didn't really care about.

"So," said Terri "We should get a move on."

"Yea or else the Marauders and Dawn will eat all the food before we even get there!" I said looking at Dawn who was a couple of yards ahead of us. We both laughed and ran to catch up with Dawn who was apparently having a very heated conversation with the prat Potter. I was hearing bits and pieces before I caught up with Dawn, but now that I was caught up I got the whole burrito. Like my friend Diana used to say "You mess with one bean, you get the whole burrito." Which we all used to crack up laughing over. We meaning my friends back at AAWW. Not to self: must try that with Terri and Dawn sometime.

Well anyway, back to what they were saying. "-the Cleansweep 2 is not the best broom!" said Dawn. "Actually," I said "I'm pretty sure the Nimbus 1600 is the best broom on the market currently, one that I happen to own." I finished proudly. You should have seen the look on Potter's face."Y-you can't own that broom!" James said flabbergasted "It hasn't been introduced to the market yet!" he said.

"I know, I just have connections." I said. I knew I was sort-of rubbing it in his face, but hey! He totally deserves it. "Well, I bet you're lying." Said Sirius. "Yeah, well I bet you she isn't." said Dawn coming to my rescue, even though I really didn't need to be saved. "Well, none of you can really prove she has that broom. Only Lily can prove she has the broom. So we'll see her flying sometime, and THEN we can see whether or not she has that broom of hers." Said Remus. Peter was nodding along side of him. "Whatever, you guys and your broomsticks, let's just get inside." said Terri.

We all complied. We started walking to the door, I got there first (I'm a fast walker). I tried to push it open. It wouldn't move! What the flipping hell is going on here? I put my back into it, pushing even harder.

All of a sudden Potter walks toward me, he was probably only a couple of inches from my face. It was impossible to look anywhere but those eyes. They were really pretty you know? And then all of a sudden he's smirking at me again.

"Pull, darling, no push."

Now that, was embarrassing. I'm pretty sure I turned the color of a ripe pomegranate. You know, I love those. They get ripe around October, and everyone last year started throwing them at each other, let me tell you. They hurt like no hurt you've every experienced. Unless you've had a child you know, my mother constantly reminds me "48 hours of labor and no pain-killers."

Potter looked me up and down and gave a final smirk, pointedly at my cheeks, and went in.

I turn around and half the school's right behind me.

Great.

Now I'm going to be called the girl who doesn't know how to open doors.

Great.

Peachy.

As my friend Tony would say, gggreeeaaatttt!

So much for my good impression.

Rrreeeeeevvvviiieeewwww

And HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
