Lilies aren't Roses
Lily's eyes sparkled as she looked around. Diagon Alley was amazing! Books
on magic, broomsticks, wands, gold, robed wizards and witches, wonderful
sights everywhere. Her mother and father looked around, apparently just as
lost for words as she was. Suddenly she realized, she didn't care if
Petunia called her a freak anymore, she didn't care if the neighborhood
children teased her anymore. These people wouldn't! She was one of them.
This was her world now.
Lily Evans, now 16, smiled at the memory. Six years ago, she had found this
world when she was accepted at Hogwarts, School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Bemused, she realized that she was standing on the exact same place as she
had been, all those years ago, when she set foot in the magical shopping
center for the first time. She was so happy that she was returning to the
Wizarding World after three months stuck with Petunia that happiness
threatened to bubble over her like an over-filled teacup. Life was perfect!
"Hey! Evans!"
Or not so perfect.
She tried to disappear into the throngs of people so as not to be caught
but was unsuccessful.
"How're you doing Evans?" James Potter asked he grabbed her hand and turned
her to face him. He was slightly breathless and ran his hand through his
hair as he spoke. Lily winced, she hated it when he did that.
"Just fine Potter," she muttered. "Until you came along."
"Oh come on! Come keep me and-" He gestured behind at Sirius Black "this
idiot, company at the ice cream shop."
"I would rather not."
"Please."
"LILY!" the voice came from behind. Lily turned and saw her two best
friends, Elsa Prewitt, and Danielle McKinnon waving run up to her.
"My gosh! I haven't seen you guys in ages!" Lily exclaimed.
"I know.we've got so much to talk about.oh, I see you have company."
Danielle gave a scorning look at Potter and Black.
"Elsa and Danielle, you two look more radiant than ever before." Said
Sirius with a mock bow.
"Cut the crap, Black." Both girls chorused.
"Please get me out of their company!" Lily pleaded.
"That we can do!" Elsa decided. "Come on, lets go get our books for this
year."
"Come on Lily! Do ice cream with us.your friends can come.I'm serious."
"NO! I AM SIRIUS!" Burst out Sirius. All three girls looked at each other,
clearly wondering what they were doing in the company of such a disturbed
individual.
Lily blinked. "Sorry, Potter, we've got better things to do." She linked
arms with the other two and they walked off.
"Thanks a lot, Padfoot." James muttered, staring at Lily's retreating
figure.
"Oh cheer up Prongs! I've got the best prank we can play on the Slytherins!
It'll put you out of you're rejection depression quick enough. Come on,
lets get ice cream and I shall explain." Sirius said excitedly
"Is food all you ever think about Sirius?" James asked, but he followed his
friend, ginning.
