Thank you for coming back to read it all again, I pretty much changed a few things in the story and put some chapters together to make them longer.

Chapter One

Lily woke up bright and early like she did every morning so she could start her morning routine. Get up, look over her cuts and bruises and heal them if possible, sneak to the kitchen for breakfast, brush her teeth quickly and quietly, and go back to bed. Every morning was the same, but this morning was a bit different. She was leaving for Hogwarts in less than an hour; she had called for the cab to pick her up at 8:00. She knew she would have about 3 hours to kill but it would be hell of a lot better than being at her so called home.

Lily walked out with her bag and owl behind her as the numbers changed from 7:59 to 8:00. But before she could get to the door her father came out of his room with a hangover.

"Wha are you doin sluuut?" He asked with a slur.

"Going to Hogwarts, it's September 1st." Not like you would know that. Lily thought. And before he could say anything she left and got into the cab she had called for to go to the train station.

The ride to the station was quiet, with the cab driver kept looking in the review mirror to look at her in the back she kept her eyes on the passing landscape. It was short ride, about 15 minutes, and soon enough she was there.

She stepped out of the cab looking around to see people going about their lives, completely oblivious to the witch walking to the doors; she didn't think this day would ever come. Lily grabbed a cart once inside the station and made her way to platform 9 ¾.

Lily walked slowly through to platform and went straight to the train. No one was ever there so early, so finding an empty compartment was easy enough. Especially since it was the same one from when she was a first year. Once her stuff was put away she sat and looked out the window and started to daydream.

Lily looked up to see her two best friends walk through the compartment doors two hours later. Alice came in first, who gave her a smile. Her and Lily were extremely alike, they don't hug often and they both would rather stay in and read than go out. Marlene comes tumbling into the compartment, laughing. She sees Lily and jumps over, bringing her into a hug.

"Lily!" Marlene yells, hugging Lily just a little too tight. But she welcomes it, this is a good pain. Marlene is the one who keeps Alice and Lily on their toes and makes sure they don't become hermits over the year. Neither Marlene nor Alice know anything that goes on when everyone leaved to go home over the summer. They believe that Lily does a bunch of crazy muggle sports that cause her all the bruises.

"It's nice to see you too, Marlene." Lily says with a laugh.

"So Lil, how was your summer?" Alice asks her.

Lily's summer flashes in her mind, the taunts, and the abuse that she had to go through. "Oh it was alright, nothing like yours though! How was backpacking in Romania?"

Alice went on and on about her trip, she had asked Lily before summer if she wanted to go with her. As much as Lily had wanted to, there was no way she could get away with it. Lily dreamed though, that after this summer when she was an adult in the wizarding world, she could actually do what she wanted to do and get out of the retched place she has to call home.

Marlene had to call Lily back in present, as she's always drifting away in her head.

"Pardon?"

"Honestly Lil, I wonder what goes on in that head of yours. I was asking you, did you get Head Girl?" Marlene said with a smirk.

Lily couldn't help but laugh. "As a matter of fact, I am."

"That's great Lil!" Marlene and Alive both congratulated her, smiling. They both went on telling Lily how great she would be at it and how much she deserved it for all her hard work. So far they are the only ones to have congratulated her, when she opened it and screamed in delight her father barged into her room and when he saw the badge he mocked her relentlessly over the summer.

"Thanks you too, it means a lot. I actually had to leave like 10 minutes ago to meet up with Head Boy, whoever that is!" Lily said noticing the time, and with a smile and a wave she was on her way to front of the train where the Head Boy and Girl meet every year.

Lily started to try and guess who would have made Head Boy this year, the only boy who came into her mind that could be Head Boy would be Remus. He is the only option, no one has tried as much as him to get good grades and be a good student. Even though he is part of the Marauders with James, Sirius and Peter, he has to be the best male student in Hogwarts.

She walked into the Head's compartment and froze in complete shock.

He stood there smiling at her and said, "Surprised to see me Evans?"

"Potter, why on earth are you here?" Lily couldn't help the way her voice snapped at him.

"Why Evans, I thought you would know. I'm Head Boy." And he showed her the badge that was pinned on his robes.

"Now why would Dumbledore make you Head Boy?" She said with as much venom in her voice that she could bring forward, but personally it wasn't much for how tired she was.

"Evans, Lily, he isn't as dumb as everyone thinks he is. Now stop pretending to hate me when you know you love me." He said with a wink.

"Potter you make another move on me, I swear to Merlin, I will make sure you will never get it up again." Lily said, making it clear that she was not joking. He just looked at her and sat down, not bothering to make a comeback. She sat on the chair next to him and waited for the prefects.
