A/N - So here is the last chapter. I decided to do two in one night and to be honest they're short chapters anyway. Here is the last chapter of this story ...
Lily
This was all going to be fine, Sev had told her all about each house, and the hat had confirmed that he wasn't lying. Sev was stood next to her right up until they called her name.
"Evans, Lily."
Sev leaned into her for a second, and then he was gone, and she was sat on the wooden stool, but she hadn't felt herself moving.
Lily sat down and the hat fell over her head.
'Well, we've got an idea about what we what to do and where we want to be placed don't we. Let me guess, your friend has told you. Well where you go rely's on you, not what people tell you.
You're reasonably bright, nothing too special though, but you've got a fairly open mind. Maybe Ravenclaw. You seen rather loyal as well, maybe Hufflepuff. You've yet to discover yourself, and how you fit into the wizarding world though, so not Slytherin. But you have a streak of pride, and you will face any situation, and you will never give up on anything. I think you are a very clear GRYFFINDOR.'
She smiled and went and sat down. She realised that she was sat near one of those annoying boys from the train. He was the one who they were all silent for. Lily didn't personally understand the silence but she didn't feel inclined to break it. She didn't however move. The hat was right, she wouldn't let her pride go, so she settled for ignoring the boy.
She had a house, but the hat had confused her. She was a clear Gryffindor? Lily didn't think so.
In a way she felt regretful, because Sev had said that Slytherin was the house that she should be in, but the hat had ruled that out completely. What if Sev went there now, and she didn't. They'd be separated.
Lily sat and watched the sorting waiting for the moment that would define their friendship. But before Sev's sorting another sorting caught her eye. It was a boy's. His name was James Potter. Again he was one of the boys from the train.
He was looking a little nervous, and kept glancing towards this table. Then the hat went over his head. She lost interest now. She was bored, and hungry, and anxious. She heard the hat shout 'GRYFFINDOR' and clapped along with everyone else. It was only when she felt somebody moving next to her did she look up at the Potter-boy , who was sitting down next to her.
Lily looked him up and down as if to say go away, but then she met his eyes on her scanning of him.
They were a very pretty shade of hazel, they also had hints of gold in them. She was staring into them for god knows how long, and then she heard the name "Snape, Severus." Being called, and she instantly turned back the front.
She wanted to go and hug him when the hat declared him to be in Slytherin. They were now separated from each other. Sev had been her guide to the wizarding world, and now he was gone. Lily felt lost.
In the next few years everything the hat had said about her came true, she found her place, she would not give up on things until she succeeded, and she became proud of the fact that she was the only girl to say no to James Potter.
However she was very careful when she was with him, because she knew it would be all too easy to get lost in his eyes. And the Problem with loosing herself in his eyes, is that it became all to easy just to say yes.
A/N - Thank you for reading. I'd just like to say that this is my first completed, multi-chapter, story here on fanfiction. So i'm incredibly happy that I've finished this.
I own nothing by the way.
Love KCornish13
