Harry Potter woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare. Now most children at the tender age of 4 would have started screaming or sobbing but that was not the case with the young boy.
Ever since Harry could remember he had been having nightmares, the first couple of times he woke up screaming, that had changed when the Dursley's had started hitting him. They would hit him if he cried, if he complained, if he mentioned anything unusual or, when he woke them up, but particularly when he asked questions. If there was one rule Harry knew the Dursley's had it was to not ask questions.
Harry looked around the room, it wasn't his cupboard, he was in a big bed, and a big room, he looked at the clock, it read 4:00, he finally remembered where he was. He was at the nice lady's place, the one who looked like his mummy.
He was a little bit scared of her but she seemed nice, he thought that she would probably wake up about 6:30 she didn't seem like the type to sleep in.
Suddenly he heard giggling from somewhere outside his room, he slowly crept out of his bed and tiptoed to the door. He opened it carefully and followed the sound, he exited the hallway and walked into what he assumed was a living room but it definitely was much messier than the Dursley's living room.
The nice lady was sitting on a couch with another lady who looked about the same age as Lily, and they were looking through some kind of book. "H…hello," he called out nervously, suddenly the giggling stopped, "I'm s...sorry I heard da noise an wanted to know what happ'ning, I…I'm sorry, please don't hurt me," Lily practically swooped over to Harry her movement was so fast Kat didn't even realize she had gone, she was to busy staring at the tiny child Lily had her wrapped in her arms.
"Ssssh, it's ok darling I'm not going to hurt you, your welcome to come out, I was going to introduce Kat to you tomorrow morning, but seeing' your awake I will introduce her now, Kat this is my cousin Harry, Harry sweetheart, this is my best friend Katalin McGonagall."
Harry took a close look at the girl on the couch, she stood up, Harry quickly hid behind Lily, Kat was tall, and Vernon Dursley the man that caused Harry so much pain was tall, so Harry made a connection between the two, and hid. Kat seemed to understand this and sat down in front oh Harry so she was only slightly taller than him.
Kat stuck her hand out and Harry, carefully placed his hand in hers and said, "I…I'm Harry Pwotter, nice to meet ya," They shook hands and Kat responded "Nice to meet you Harry, I'm Kat, if you call me Katalin, I may not like you anymore, not even my mum does," but Lily whispered into Harry's ear, "her mum calls her Katalin, just don't tell her I told you that," Kat snorted, she had heard all that Lily had said, "Yeah but she calls you Lilliana," "Shut-up Kat," Lily said, mock glaring.
"Unfortunately we need to go to bed now or we won't be able wake up early to meet the solictors." "Da what, what?" Lily and Kat smiled, they hoped this would go down well, "Well, Harry you see I want to adopt you…" Lily said hesitantly, "What she means Harry is she wants to be your new mummy" Kat supplied unhelpfully, Lily wanted to scream at her best friend, that was not the way to tell it to him, but if she did tell Kat that, Harry might think she didn't want him. So Lily stayed quiet, she Harry's eyes light up. "I gonna have a new mummy?" "uh…yeah I guess," Lily said just barely over a whisper. Harry's face fell, "yo…you don't want me?" he questioned, while he looked like he was about to cry. "Of course I want you, it's just I don't have to be your new mummy if you don't want me too." "Why wouldn't I want you be my mummy? You real nice."
Lily wrapped her arms tightly around the young boy, Harry patted her softly on the back and looked up at Kat questionly, and Kat just shrugged her shoulders as if to say 'Don't ask me.'

"Now, Miss Prewitt if you would just sign here, we can officially make you the guardian of mister Potter," Lily signed the form. "Thank-you miss Rush, you've been a lot of help,"

Lily was relieved, that had been a lot easier than she thought, on her list of things to do that was important, that was 1st, second on her list was getting revenge on the Dursley's. Of course she wouldn't kill them but the one thing they really hated? Magic, so a few well placed spells should shock them enough.

Ok, someone asked (I think it was Gryffin love) if Lily Potter ws related to Lily Prewitt,
Ok basically I'm making Petunia a squib, but only their mother is magical, but because they have their father's last name (Evans) they are thought to be muggle born.
But Lily and Petunia have an older sister called Rose. (Lilliana's mum)
It was said in an interview with Rowling that Molly Weasley was originally a Prewitt, who's brother's Gideon and Fabian were killed by 10 deatheaters.
Fabian married Rose Evans (my character) so that makes Molly Weasley her aunt, and Ron and all them her cousins, but Harry is her cousin aswell but he's not actually related to the Weasley's...
--------
Ok, I totally don't own Harry Potter, obviously, but I own Lily Prewitt, Rose Evans ( not that she'll be appearing or anything) and any other character you don't know...
--------
I'm also looking for a beta reader if anyone is interested at all...preferably someone good with english...
Keep rewiewing, it makes me happy.
