Lily and her boyfriend don't get together so fast and her boyfriend is no longer known as Tom Felton but now known as someone else, you'll meet him soon enough. I hope this will suffice until i can get a few more chapters going. You know how short my attention span is when i start multi chapter stories .

Chapter 2
"LILY! Get down here! We're going to miss the train!" Hermione stood at the bottom of the stairs.
"I'm coming! Geez, mum, I'll be there in a minute!" Lily looked at her room and picked up Chelsey's cat. She grabbed her trunk and walked down the stairs. With a flick of Hermione's wand her trunk was shrunk down enough to stick in her pocket.
"Lets go, you'll be late." Hermione grabbed her wrist and dragged her out to the car.
"Alright. You'll be coming home for Christmas this year. Your father doesn't have Auror things to do. We'll be having Ronald watch you so we'll know if you do anything wrong. Now come along, we can't be missing the train." Hermione pressed kisses to each of her kids' foreheads. "Go say goodbye to your father before you get on the train." Hermione motioned to her husband who was talking to a platinum blonde. The kids nodded and walked towards their father.
"You all are invited for Christmas." Harry smiled at the man.
"Potter, you invite everybody every year." The man shook his head.
"And you never fail to come." Harry smirked.
"That's only because Ginny and Danielle make me." The man continued to shake his head.
"Malfoy, admit it. You're whipped." Harry chuckled.
"Quiet. Oh look. The spawn of Potter have arrived." The man groaned.
"Yola, Uncle Draco." Lily waved at the blonde man.
"I'm not your uncle, Lillian." Draco said sternly.
"Well of course you are. You're married to my aunt."
"She's only your aunt because your father doesn't have any family. Ginny's mother took pitty on your father." Draco turned is nose up, attempting to look superior.
"Yo, Draco…you've got something sticking outta your nose." Dan snickered and walked up to his father. "See you dad." He hugged him and then walked towards the train, after hearing his father's reply, getting on, and walking to the compartment he would share with his sisters and cousin.
"Bye, Dad." Chelsey hugged her father.
"Bye, Chels." Harry hugged his daughter and watched as his eldest climbed onto the train and followed her brother.
"Ginny, where is Danielle?" Draco addressed his wife.
"She's saying goodbye to my mother. Hello Harry." Ginny leaned over and kissed Harry on the cheek.
"Hey Ginny." Harry smiled at the scowl that was eating at Draco's face.
"Bye Mum! Bye Daddy!" A girl with platinum blond hair and grey eyes bounced up to her parents and kissed them both on the cheek. "Come on Lily!"
"Alright. Bye Daddy." Lily hugged her father and then left with the bouncy fifteen-year-old.
Chelsey, Dan, and Lily stuck their heads out of the window to wave at their parents.
"Be good, please." Hermione pleaded with her children. "Please don't irritate any of the teachers. Chelsey, Lily."
"Right. We'll be good. You be good too! I don't want to come home to find I've got a little brother again." Chelsey smirked. Harry and Hermione blushed furiously. Draco and Ginny smirked enjoying a slight chuckle at the Potter couple's expense.
"Well, Chelsey I think it's time you stuck your head in the train so that you don't loose it when the train starts." Harry coughed.
"Daaaad! You're mean!!" Chelsey whined and moved back into the compartment.
"Bye Daddy! Mum!" Danielle waved at her parents.
"See you at Christmas!" Ginny waved to her daughter.
The Hogwarts Express started its slow crawl out of the station as children quickly bid farewell to their parents before the train could leave the station. With one last wave to their parents, Dan, Lily and Danielle pulled themselves back into the train.
"So…what pranks are on the list today?" Danielle looked over at Chelsey.
"Well I was thinking of sneaking back and enchanting the pumpkin pasties on the cart. Get them to munch on who ever buys them." Chelsey grinned.
"You'll have to be careful." Dan said, opening one eye.
"Why?" Danielle and Chelsey looked at him.
"Little Miss Muffet's godfather is on the train to supervise the students. She can only distract him for so long. She can only be distracted by snakes for so long." Dan nodded to the girl who was curled up and dozing.
"Right. Well then we'll have to get as many snakes as possible to keep her and Snape occupied long enough to go and mess with the pumpkin pasties." Chelsey nodded.
"Good luck with that one." Dan started to rest his head against the wall.
"Oh no you don't; you're going to help!" Chelsey and Danielle got up, dragging the unfortunate boy behind them. Dan shook his head, wondering how Lily could sleep through the entire racket that they made.
"Snape!!!" Snape looked up from his reading to find his goddaughter's sister, brother, and cousin bounce up to him.
"Yes, Chelsey." Snape closed his book and set it beside him.
"Lily's bored. She wants to play with snakes." Chelsey said simply.
"Right, well. Go off and do whatever. I'll go see Lily." Snape stood up. He really couldn't say no when it came to his goddaughter.
Lily woke up and rubbed her eyes. She noticed she was alone. Huffing slightly she looked around. "I'm bored." Lily moaned to herself as she stretched out of the seat she was sitting in. "Soooo bored!! Bored!!!" Lily hummed a little tune and watched the luggage juggle in the luggage rack above her head.
Standing on her seat she reached into her bag, which was in the luggage rack, and pulled out several sheets of paper. She stepped down and sat in the middle of the compartment. She grinned slightly and began lighting the sheets of paper on fire.
"I would think you would be bored with that considering you did that last year, and the year before that on the way to school and on the way back." Lily looked up and smiled at her godfather.
"Hiya Snape!" She drew her wand and with a quick swish, the paper was gone. "Why are you here?"
"Chelsey said you were bored." Snape drew his wand, and muttering a quick incantation and a flick of his wrist several snakes shot towards Lily. She caught them and set them in front of her on the floor.
"Thanks!" She smiled down at the snake. "You're going to be my friend."
Snape shook his head at the girl's antics as he sat down on the seat behind her and pulled his book back out again to read.
'Who are you…and what do you want?' the snake stared up at Lily.
'I want to be your friend.' Lily said simply back to the snake, in parsel tongue. Snape shivered at the hissing that emitted from Lily's mouth.
'Why would I want to be your friend?' the snake curled around her wrist.
'Because I have the power to destroy you with a flick of my wrist.' Lily smirked.
'Right well…I'll be your friend and you'll be mine.' The snake stopped squeezing her wrist.
"Ready?" Chelsey looked back at Dan and Danielle.
"Is the trolley lady here?" Dan asked, looking around.
"No. She's up in front." Danielle pointed to the front of the train.
"Good. Come on, she'll be back here soon!" Chelsey drew her wand from her pocket and with a quick swish she placed a spell over the pumpkin pasties. "Right, come on." Chelsey made a shooing motion at Dan and Danielle.
"Hello, dears, is there anything I can help you with?" Chelsey smiled at the trolley lady.
"No, we were just wondering when you were going to come about." Danielle smiled gently.
"Well, I'll be around in a bit, alright, dears?" The trolley lady smiled at the two girls. "Now, run along and go back to your compartments. I hope you aren't causing any trouble Miss Potter."
"Of course I wouldn't!" Chelsey grinned and then quickly started back towards the compartment.
Chelsey, Dan, and Danielle returned to the compartment to find that Lily was sitting on the floor with a surplus of snakes, while Snape sat reading his book, even while a snake slithered its way up his leg.
"Uh, Snape; snake." Chelsey pointed the snake out.
"Oh. Lily." Snape motioned to the snake.
'Off.' With a commanding hiss, Lily called the snake. Chelsey, Dan, Snape, and Danielle shivered at the hissing.
"Snape…think you could do away with the snakes for a while?" Dan shook.
"Alright…" Snape took a look at his goddaughter's face, "I'm sorry, Lily. You're brother is frightened." With a snap of his wand, the snakes were gone.
"Lily, do you realize how creepy that is?" Danielle followed Chelsey into the compartment and sat down.
"No…I think it's cool, actually."
"Of course you would." Dan said dryly. Then it finally hit him. Snape had said he was frightened of snakes, "I am not afraid of snakes! I just don't like it when Lily talks to the snakes!" Daniel pouted as he slumped into his seat.
"Well pardon my slip of tongue. I have to go supervise the other students. Please attempt somewhat to be good." Snape said dryly. I can't keep cleaning up after your messes." Snape stood up and walked out of the compartment.
"First years are soooo boring!" Chelsey whined.
"Be thankful you aren't a prefect, Chelsey." Daniel said quietly reading his book.
"But you aren't a prefect, Dan, so it doesn't really matter does it?"
"Well what you think of Emily Bones? She's a prefect and she gets to deal with them for the rest of the week showing them where to go. But she gets do deal with you all year long!"
"Well the ickle firsties have got it coming to them. We got pranked on when we were first years now it's my turn." Chelsey grinned evilly.
"It's been your turn since you were in third year." Daniel narrowed his eyes.
"Will you two give it a rest already? Budge up, Dan." Lily made a shooing motion at her brother. Daniel moved his legs and set them on the ground. Lily sunk into the cushions as she sat down. Looking around, the lull of her companions' voices began to sound comforting and her eyelids became heavy as Lily slid down in her seat and fell asleep.
"Do we really have to watch all of the first years get sorted?" whined Chelsey.
"Yes…if you want to eat." Dan said dryly.
"But…but!" Chelsey whimpered, "First years are so boring!"
"Quit complaining." Dan said dismissively leading his sisters and cousin into the Great Hall.
"But…but!" Chelsey continued to whimper.
"No buts!" Dan hissed and made a shushing motion.
"No butts? What about no butts?" Lily decided it was time to butt in on the conversation.
"Nothing Lily. Now shush." Dan reprimanded his younger twin.
"That was soooo long." Chelsey, Dan, Lily and Danielle sluggishly climbed the stairs.
"I'm soooo full." Danielle groaned, "I haven't eaten that much in such a long while." Lily said nothing and stopped in the middle of the stairs looking down onto the main floor. A group of Slytherin students was walking towards the dungeons.
"Lily?" Dan poked his sister. "Lily." He, his big sister and cousin followed her gaze down to the group of slytherins. "What is so interesting about them?"
"She has a crush on one." A new voice entered Dan's head. Could it be that he was finally cracking? No, it seems Chelsey and Danielle knew whom the voice owned to.
"Hey Manda!" Chelsey waved good-naturedly. Lily, upon finally breaking out of her trance, promptly whipped around and slapped Manda on the arm.
"Hey! That hurt Lily!"
"Anywhoo…" Chelsey smirked, "Who is it? Who is little Lily crushing on."
"Kyle." Manda smirked, knowing that it was her only come back against Lily's previous slap.
"Wait he's a Slytherin!" Chelsey turned to glare at her little sister.
"That's what she just said." Lily said dryly and started climbing the stairs again.
"Lily! You're Gryffindor!" Dan attempted to reason.
"Did you know that the sorting hat attempted to put me in Slytherin?" Lily smirked. Only she and her parents knew that little tidbit of information.
"And a noble thing it would have been to accept the offer." All five heads whipped down to the new voice joining the conversation. Lily gasped lightly. A tall red haired Slytherin student was talking up at them. "You would have made history Lily Potter, you being the first and only Potter to ever be in Slytherin."
"But you see, Kyle Nicholls, I couldn't accept the offer." Lily leaned against the railing.
"And why is that?" the Slytherin boy smirked up at her, an eyebrow cocked in question, "Why couldn't do that do Daddy dearest?"
"That and…" Lily smirked even more. "I'm just too good for you." She flipped her hair over her shoulder and started walking up the stairs.
"Touché, Lily Potter, touché." Kyle watched as the blonde Potter girl walked up the stairs only to look over her shoulder down at him. He winked at her and she blushed, quickly turning away.
"And what was your intent on doing that?" a black haired boy sidled up to Kyle.
"I wanted to let her know that I noticed her noticing me and I wanted to let her know…that I had noticed her." Kyle smirked, using a line from an old muggle television show.
"But why her? She's a Gryffindor."
"One of the only Gryffindors who were considered for Slytherin. I like her, though…she's spunky, not like other girls." Kyle threw a smug smile over his shoulder at the black haired boy. "Come on Harold. Let's go." Kyle and Harold walked down the hall towards the Slytherin dungeons.
"Did you see the look he gave you, Lily?" Manda crowed once they reached the Gryffindor dorms.
"Yes I saw. You should have seen the look he gave me when you weren't looking?" Lily placed a triumphant smirk on her face. "Lets see how long I can play this little game with him."
"This could be interesting. Lily Potter is actually flirting…you know…that means she is…Gasp! Acting like a girl!" One of the other fifth year girls laughed while sitting on the armrest of Lily's chair.
"Well…I like this part of being a girl." Lily shrugged the triumphant smirk still in place. Her companions laughed.
"Now…I will be assigning you partners. You may not necessarily get partners in your house." Snape droned on, his voice monotonous. "I will now read the partner assignments. Daniel, Amanda. Danielle, Chelsey…" Lily's head dropped to her hand as she listened to her godfather read off assignments. "Kyle, Lily." Lily's head shot up and turned to look at her newly assigned partner. He smiled and winked at her and all she could do was stare at him. "Please moved to sit with your partners, these shall also be your seating arrangements."
Lily leaned her head against her palm for the fifth time that class period. She was bored out of her mind. And then like a sign from above…the bell rang. The shuffling of books and papers being tossed into the bottom of book backs filled the classroom. Lily pulled her bag over her shoulder and moved to get up. "Miss Potter!" She turned and groaned when she saw Kyle walking up to her.
"Can you not call me that? It's so…formal and I hate formalities." Lily leaned against the walls of the dungeons.
"Fine…Lily is it?" Lily nodded, rolling her eyes. "Anyway; here…I wish to give you this." Kyle held out a folded slip of parchment and Lily grabbed it. "I bid you good day, mademoiselle."
"See ya." She sighed and looked at the parchment. She stuffed it in her book bag and turned to walk down the halls.
"Seems you have a not so secret admirer." Snape's voice held a hint of amusement.
"Did you do this on purpose, Severus?" Lily rarely used his first name as her father always called him Snape. Using his first name meant she was irked.
"Maybe." Snape's eyes actually glinted with some amusement.
"You're mean. But I must head to class, alright?" Lily smiled at her godfather. "Good day, Professor."
"Good day, Miss Potter." Snape disappeared, backwards, into the shadows of his classroom, awaiting the poor souls who had the misfortune to have the next class. His goddaughter was not happy with him and therefore, he was not a happy man.
"Lily! Over here!" Lily looked up and saw Manda, Chelsey, and Danielle waving over to her from the Gryffindor table. She made a gesture meaning one moment and dug in her bag for the parchment that Tom had given her. She opened it; she cocked her head in confusion, it said only one thing:
Meet me at the Quittitch Pitch after dinner.
Kyle
She shrugged her shoulders and stuffed the parchment in her bag before heading over to the table.
"Guess what!" Lily looked to her twin brother.
"What?"
"Chelsey has a crush on someone!"
"What?!" Lily's jaw dropped, "Better yet…who?"
"Damien Smith!"
"That Hufflepuff who thinks he's better than Chelsey at pranks?"
"Yeah."
"That's unbelievable."
"I know!"
"You know I'm right beside you guys. Thanks…now the entire house knows." Chelsey glared at her brother and sister.
"Sorry." They squeaked; they scooted over a bit.
McGonagall walked up to the Gryffindor table and singled out the Potter bunch. She walked up behind Chelsey and tapped her on the shoulder. "Miss Potter, could you please come with me. Bring your siblings and Miss Malfoy."
"Yes'm." Chelsey nodded and got up from the table. Danielle, Daniel and Lily got up and followed Chelsey. "Yes Professor?"
"I am just checking to make sure you haven't done anything…as in repeats from previous years?" McGonagall raised her eyebrow.
"We've done nothing, Professor, I can assure you." Chelsey smiled winsomely.
"Done nothing?" Lily raised an eyebrow as they climbed the stairs towards the Gryffindor common room.
"Well nothing too bad. Nothing that might warrant being strapped to a chair." Chelsey shrugged and then moved to pass Lily. "By the way, your lover-boy asked me to give you something. I left it on your bed. He said you might need it for later." Lily watched as her sister said the password and slipped under the portrait and into the common room.
"Do you want in too, dear?" the fat lady stared down at Lily.
"Yes please." Lily stepped into the common room. She saw Chelsey sitting in a chair reading but chose to ignore her and instead jogged up the stairs to the girls' dormitories.
Lily stared at the package on her bed. She pulled the twine from around it and gasped when she saw an expensive velvet black cloak; on the inside, the lining was crimson. She pulled it out of the packaging and a note slipped out. 'Lily, hope you like it. You might need it for our meeting. Adieu, Kyle.' Lily pulled the cloak on and slipped out of the dorms, ignoring the stares of her siblings as she walked by.
"Where did she get that?"
"It's a present from lover-boy."
"I'll kill him." Chelsey, Danielle and Manda proceeded to restrain Daniel from going after his twin sister.
Lily walked down to the Quittitch Pitch. "Glad you could make it, Miss. Potter." Kyle was leaning against one of the walls that housed the boys' changing room.
"What do you want, Nicholls?"
"So hostile. Come, take a walk with me." Kyle extended his hand towards Lily. Lily moved towards him subconsciously but didn't take his hand, her hand stayed limp at her sides. Kyle shrugged and moved towards the doors to the boys' locker room. "Come on, let's walk around the pitch."
"I can't go in there. I could get in trouble." Lily hesitated.
"You'll be fine. I just want to get into the pitch; I'm not going to be changing." Kyle raised an eyebrow, "Unless you want me to."
"In your dreams, Nicholls." Lily glared.
"Actually, it would be in your dreams. I don't dream about undressing myself." Kyle smirked and held the door open. "Ladies first."
"Wouldn't that mean that I should open the door for you? You're more of a lady than I ever will." Lily walked through the door regardless of her statement.
"Hush." Kyle led her through the changing rooms towards the pitch. He looked at her from the corner of his eye, "Do you like your cloak?"
"Yes, thank you." Lily blushed. She walked through the open doorway behind Kyle and looked around the pitch.
"I wanted to ask you something." Kyle said as he stopped to look around.
"Yes."
"Would you do me the honor of becoming my girlfriend?" Kyle turned and stared at Lily.
"I-I don't know."
"You would be the envy of your school mates."
"You don't just want to sleep with me and then dump me just to say that you've slept with me, do you. I know a lot of guys want to do that." Lily glared at him.
"No, no." Kyle walked forward and took her hand, continuing to walk forwards, walking her backwards. The awkward steps stopped once Lily's back met with the wall. "I like you. I do. And I would like to get to know you more on an intimate level. Please. Do me the honor of being my girlfriend."
"Um, Nichols, has it ever occurred to you that maybe you need to get to know me before you ask someone out?" Lily said angrily, looking up at Kyle. Kyle smiled gently down at her and pressed a soft kiss to her lips.
"It has occurred to me, yes, but I think maybe we can come up with a compromise until we know each other…better?"
"Friends…for now." Kyle leaned down and kissed her again, "With benefits, benefits that I want." He pulled away and continued to smile at her. "What do you think the school will say?"
"Does it really matter?"
"No." Lily gasped out as Kyle kissed her again, pressing her up against the wall behind her.
