Chapter 2.
Lily said a quick good-bye to her mother, father and sister, and went to join her friend Kelli. They walked through the barrier and along the train; the only compartment that they could sit in was a compartment full of 3 boys and 1 girl. They sat down opposite what seemed to be a couple, as the girl was sitting on 1 of the boys lap. The girl realizing that no one was talking and introduced herself.
"Hi, I'm Aimee Brown. Who are you?" she said standing up.
"I'm Kelli Patil and this is Lily Evans", Kelli said politely. She noticed Aimee was one of those gorgeous girls the boys would chase after.
"This is James Potter, Remus Lupin, and Sirius Black", Aimee said sitting back down on the boy, James's lap.
"Hi." Lily and Kelli said nervously.
They sat there in a very nervous silence for over ten minutes, silence only broken when Remus said,
"So…" He eventually looked at Kelli, and she looked back feeling the blood rushing to her cheeks, she turned away feeling rather flushed. Aimee finally stood up and said,
"I've had enough of this. Lets play a game!"
"Yeah, that's a great idea," Sirius said with enthusiasm.
"You choose." He said turning to Lily.
"Um…I don't know um…truth or dare?" Lily said in a quiet voice, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Perfect!" James said in a menacing voice.
They played for just under half an hour, Kelli and Lily picking only truth every time it was their turn, this made Aimee, James, Sirius, and Remus a little bored and they were grateful when the lady with the trolley came.
"So what house do you think you will be in?" Remus asked Kelli forty-five minutes later.
"House?" Kelli asked aware of all the stares around her.
"Yes, the house like…Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and um…Slytherin." He said knowingly.
"Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about." Kelli said more firmly this time.
"What, so are you muggle born?" He asked interested.
"Um…yes. Non-witch, if that's what you mean." She replied now shrinking into a nervous position. Remus nodded and turned to Lily,
"What about you?" He asked nicely.
"Um…the same I guess." She said pulling up from her book, A History of magic.
"Wow!" Remus said amazed.
"Oh come on Remus, it's not that amazing." Aimee said, it had been clear in the last half hour that she disliked Lily and Kelli. Why, it was simple, she wasn't aloud to. Remus gave her a cold look, and she gave him one back that made him pull back, Aimee was one of those girls who you shouldn't get on her bad side.
Lily, seeing this small switch of looks, wondered what was so bad about him liking them.
Nothing was bad about it, Aimee knew it, but she couldn't show it. Her parents happened to be related to the mother of the darkest wizard in the history of magic. Aimee would have loved to be as normal as everyone else, but that just wasn't an option, she had grown up in the care of her half cousin Tom. Her parents had always listened to him, and therefore so did she.
James had started rubbing her shoulders, he knew what she was thinking and felt sorry for her, he had grown up with her, he knew that she had always been punished for speaking her mind, but then also praised for speaking her mind. Unfortunately, the punishment outweighed the praise.
The train had finally pulled to a stop and Lily got out feeling rather cold, she heard a call of 'first years over hear please.' Hagrid hadn't been there yet.) She followed the call and came to a very pretty woman, the woman lead them all to a fleet of boats and across a small lake. They ended up in a small room and awaited the ceremony that would change their lives forever.
A/N: Hey, I want to thank JewelBlossom and Alice 16, for their reviews. Really appreciate it.
Oh and for those of you who ask, yes James is aloud to date before he starts liking Lily. Ok?
Well c-ya.
