Thanks for choosing this story. I am currently in summer vacation so I will have lots of time to work on this story to make sure it's not a complete fiasco, so please enjoy and leave lots of comments. :
Summary: James and Sirius have bought a house of their own in a muggle neighborhood. What will happen when they unexpectedly move next to Lily? Lily lives in terror, but will she ever tell anyone what this terror is?
James Potter excitedly packed all his belongings. He had just turned 17 and was finally moving out. Sure, he loved being home but he was glad to have bought, with Sirius, his own house. They didn't want anything big or fancy, just a regular house. Where a better place to fine one than in a Muggle neighborhood. They rented a moving truck to try and "fit in". Before they knew it all their stuff was now in their small cozy home. It had a porch and a nice big tree with a swing outside. It had four rooms, two bathrooms, a decent sized kitchen and dinning room, and a large living room.
James and Sirius had spend the entire day putting their personal touches when they heard a knock at the door.
"Oi! Padfoot! Can you get that?" asked James.
"Right-O Jamsie!" boomed Sirius skipping towards the door.
When he opened the door he saw a girl a bit older than them with blonde hair and blue eyes. The first thought that came to his mind was that she looked like a horse.
"Hi, my name is Petunia. I live next door. Welcome to our neighborhood." she said shaking his hand. "My sister should be coming soon."
"Sirius Black. Nice to meet you. Oi, James come here."
James came over to the living room and extended his arm. "James Potter plea-" He was cut off by someone at the door.
"Sorry I'm late! My name is Li-" she stopped suddenly realizing who she was talking to. 'It couldn't be! There's no way! WHY ME?!'
"Lily? Aren't you going to shake their hands?" asked Petunia with gritted teeth, James still hadn't let go of her hand. He seemed to be frozen.
Lily looked at Petunia dazed and then, "AAHHHH!!! THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENNING!"
"Lily, my dear pumpkin! What a splendid surprise!" said Sirius hugging her.
"Black I'm going to give you 2 seconds to GET OFF OF ME!"
Sirius ran behind James for protection. She looked furious! She's been mad before, of course, but never this mad. James was still frozen looking at Lily with his mouth open.
"What is going on? How do you know each other?" asked Petunia.
"I-they-we-go to school together." answered Lily with her eyes closed wishing it was all a dream.
Petunia quickly took her hand away from James' grasp as if it were on fire. "You're telling me I have to live with MORE FREAKS!!"
As James finally came back to his senses his eyes lit up and he open mouth turned into a grin.
"LILY!!" he screamed.
"Potter! I swear, if you come anywhere near me and my house I will kill you!" she growled.
James thought about it, but soon made up his mind and ran towards her.
Lily screamed and ran outside and was heading towards her door. 'Almost there! Keep running Lily!' As she reached her door handle, she was yanked back into a smoldering hug.
"Let me go!" screamed Lily as the tried to wiggle out.
"I can't believe you're my neighbor!!!! I LOVE THIS NEIGHBORHOOD!!!!!!!!" said a very cheerful James.
"Oh God, just kill me!"
"Lily what's going on? How is that?" asked a man coming out of her house. He seemed to have a hard exterior, completely opposite of little's beautiful face.
"Dad! This is James Potter. He-just-moved-in." She had great difficulty saying those last words.
James had let go of Lily and outstretched his arm. Mr. Evans firmly shook his hand and said, "Welcome to the neighborhood. Lily. Petunia. Come in now."
They both went inside without a word soon followed by Mr. Evans. James and Sirius looked at each other and knew Mr. Evans was no one to mess with.
James went up to his room and pulled back his curtains. What he saw made him really happy. He seemed to have chosen the room next to Lily's. She was sitting at a desk looking at a glowing box clicking something. The box seemed to write back. It was amazing. He had never seen magic like that before. He made note to ask her about it someday.
