*The beginning of the end*
Last days at home
Lily started re-packing her things the day after Alice's letter had come. Petunia seemed over the moon that Lily would be off again soon.
Wednesday night Lily, Petunia and Rose were all watching Coronation Street. Lily and Petunia sat on one sofa, Petunia trying sit as far away from Lily as possible. Rose sighed sadly at her eldest ways.
The three Evans girls looked up as the sound of a front door slammed shut, the security lock sliding into place.
Mr Evans walked into the sitting room "How are my flowers today?"
"Wonderful, Daddy!" Tuney said from her place on the sofa. Dave smiled at his oldest.
"Great, Dad!" Lily sang. He grinned at her; he moved next to sit next Rose.
"How about you, m' love?" he asked putting his arm around his wife.
Rose smiled, her green eyes shinning "Absolutely amazing now"
Lily watched her parents, they were obviously in love, Lily could tell. She knew that they were meant to be. They were like one of those couples on TV, hopelessly in love.
They had their fights, but who didn't?
That's what Lily wanted in the future; she wanted someone who would love her unconditionally. That knew her so well that she wouldn't even need to say what was bothering in her. Someone she could trust with her life. Not someone that was perfect, not someone that she never had arguments with, because disagreements meant you cared. She wanted love like her parents, not superficial love like Petunia and Vernon's. To bad she hadn't met someone like that yet.
Or so she thought.
Lily sighed turning her head back to the television.
The next morning Lily was awoken by cackling, for someone so against witches Petunia sure sounded like one. Lily ran her fingers through her hair; she could either get dressed and go down stairs or go down in her pyjamas and embarrass Petunia in front of whoever she was with.
Lily hopped out of bed and headed downstairs. Smiling widely she walked into the living room. She saw her sister and her best friend Yvonne; she had mousy brown hair and eyes that were too small for her face. Her eyes narrowed whereas Petunia looked livid.
"Yvonne you remember my sister, Lily" Petunia muttered, almost as though she didn't want to admit the girl in an over sized T-shirt and shorts was her sister.
"Oh, yes, I remember you" Yvonne spat "You go to that proxy boarding school, my school wasn't good enough for the precious Lily Evans" Lily narrowed her eyes, biting her tongue to stop her from saying she would regret. Yvonne turned away from Lily in disgust. "So, Petty, what were we talking about?"
Petty! Lily snorted. Who calls her Petty?
"Well" she said breaking her stare with Lily "You know Maddy? Yeah, I found out from Lauren who was told by her boyfriend Charlie who got the news from Nick that Maddy's pregnant!"
"No way! Well, we can't be friends with her anymore!"
"I know; imagine what would happen if people found out if we were friends with her!"
"You're not going to be friends with someone because they got knocked up? That's horrible!" Lily cried.
Petunia stood her eyes flaring "Oh Lily, perfect, wonderful, baby sister, in all your perfect ways what do you suggest we do?"
"Well, Tuney, you shouldn't just leave her! You're her friend, if I was one of my –"
"One of your freak friends! What has one of your freaky, unnatural friends got to do with anything?"
"I was just –"
"Keep out of my business; it is NOTHING to do with you! So stay the fuck out of my life! Freak!" she spat, she turned and then left the room in a huff, her friend Yvonne followed.
But before she left the room she threw one last glare over to where Lily stood and stormed off after Petunia.
Life was so much simpler at Hogwarts no ratty sister, but plenty of James Potter. And what was worse? Lily thought for a moment, before deciding they were both evenly matched.
Sighing, Lily went back to her room, pulled out an old book and began to read.
The next day (the day Lily was going to Alice's) Petunia was making a right fuss. Freaking out that she had nothing to wear, Rose, Dave and Tuney were all meeting Vernon, Vernon's parents and his sister, Marge, for a meal in London.
Thankfully Lily got out of it, Dave was going to drive to the restaurant in London and Lily would walk down the street to the Leaky Cauldron where she would meet Alice, perfect.
Apart from the fact Tuney's freak out meant they were running late and as they headed to the car this only made Tuney more flustered at the fact that they might be late.
After ten minutes of Petunia's whining Lily couldn't take it anymore "Will you shut up!" Lily hissed
Petunia glared at Lily "You shut up, freak!"
"I was quiet! You were the one who was whining!" Lily snapped
"Whining? Me?"
"Yes, you! You always moan at everything! When was the last time we went somewhere where you didn't moan!"
"How would you know? You're never here! You're always at your freak school! Doing a what? Waving a stick around, muttering complete nonsense!"
"Nonsense? It's magic, Petunia! Something you obviously don't have!"
Petunia flushed bright red "Who would want to be a freak? Not me!"
"Why don't you –"
"Girls, both of you, be QUIET!" Rose shouted from the front seat. Both girls instantly fell silent.
The rest of the journey was completely soundless, no one made a noise.
Dave pulled into the car park of Angus Steak House. All four Evans got out of the car, Petunia flattening her hair, looked round the car park "Over here, Vernon, over here!" she called, flapping her arms in the air.
Before Lily knew what was going on Vernon was eating her sister's face, it made Lily feel sick.
A beast walked up behind Vernon, she was like a female version of him. She had a double chin and looked like she would eat someone without a moment hesitation. This must be Marge, Lily thought.
Lily smiled at her "I'm Lily" she said holding out her hand.
Marge snorted "I could have told that from your cheap clothes and ginger hair"
Lily narrowed her eyes "You're Marge, you look just like your brother…fat and ugly" she turned and stalked off to the boot of the car where her dad was getting out her trunk.
He placed the trunk next to Lily, wrapping his arms round his youngest. "You are so lucky you're getting out of this" he winked at her as he pulled back.
"I know" Lily laughed "I'm gunna miss you so, so much Daddy!"
"I'll miss you too, flower. Don't forget to come home this Christmas, and to write! I love it when an owl comes through, of course Petunia doesn't, in fact she gets quiet emotional" He finished on a chuckle.
Lily stepped away, her mother swooped Lily into her arms. "Lily, darling, don't forget to write. Have a wonderful time with Alice, and be good"
"I will, Mum" Lily said. She moved back from her mum's vice like grip.
"I love you, Lily"
"Love you too, mum, but I should get going. Alice will be mad if I'm late"
After another hug from Rose and Dave, Lily grabbed the handle of her trunk and raced out of the car park.
Yeah I know it was short, but the next will be longer! Promise! Also it will be up very quickly, maybe tonight or tomorrow after school…we'll see but defiantly in the next few days ;) xxx
