Prologue: Lily's Point of View
Lily Evans was doing what she was always doing and sitting in the Library in her favorite corner. It was privet and hidden from everyone else so she could get some peace. She already finished all of her assignments. Some people might call her a know-it-all, but she didn't mind. She wasn't to learn whatever she could, she found it all so interesting.
It was only the beginning of the school year and she was already ahead. Sure Lily was a muggleborn, but what did it matter, she had good marks, no one really picked on her, she had friends, and one best friend: Severus Snape. They had been friends before she even started school. He told her what she was, he would talk to her when her sister upset her. Severus was always there for her.
After a while she started to wonder where on earth Severus could have gotten off to. Lily, closed her book and left the library in search of him. She didn't have to look long, she only had to follow the sound of yelling to find him.
"Give it back!" Severus yelled at a boy with glasses and messy black hair.
"Make me." The boy countered.
Lily looked around for what Severus was walking about. She finally looked up and found the boy had been levitating his wand in the air. Lily narrowed her eyes at the boy, but did nothing. She waited to see what would happen next.
"I said give it back Potter!" Severus yelled again.
Potter... that named sounded familiar. It look Lily a minute but she remembered where she had heard that name before. Severus had mentioned him once or twice, but they weren't good things. She also remembered the name because, she sat next to him after the sorting. His name was James. James Potter. Drawn from her thoughts she saw Severus's face getting redder and redder by the minute.
"What's wrong Severus?" She heard James ask, an evil smirk appearing on his face, "You upset? Don't cry Snivellus."
That was it. She had had enough, this James kid was arrogant, cocky, and had a huge ego. She walked over to Severus and grabbed his arm before he could do anything he might regret. "Sev. don't." She said calmly. Severus relaxed a little bit, but never took his eyes off of Potter. "He's not worth it." She said trying to calm him down. She saw Potter looking at her. "What's your problem?" she asked him clearly annoyed, "What did he ever do to you? Huh?" When he didn't reply she narrowed her eyes, "That's what I thought." She took out her wand and with a flick Severus's wand fell to the floor. She walked over and picked it up glaring at James as she went, so many names for him running through her head. Once she handed Severus his wand back, she took his hand, "Come on Sev. let's go."
"You didn't have to do that Lily..." He muttered.
"Yes I did." she said in an of-matter-of-fact tone, "if I didn't then a fight might have broken out and no offense Sev. but your not the best a hand-to-hand combat..." she said, "And now I see what you mean about that Potter kid, he's completely arrogant, thinks he's just bloody brilliant, has no consideration for other people, and I've seen him with those friends of his, complete animals. That Remus kid though seems pretty normal, but still a little off, Peter just follows them around like his worships them, and that Black is just as bad."
Severus nodded and smiled like it was his birthday and Christmas combined. He saw the look on Potter's face and knowing Lily hated him made it even better.
When ever Lily saw James she would give him the cold shoulder, "Potter." She would say, and that was if she spoke to him at all. She would avoid him whenever possible. Which wasn't very often since his and Severus always got into fights, and every time she would dislike him even more.
If someone told her one day she may not feel that way, she would laugh. But feelings change and so do people...
