A/N I don't own Harry Potter. Enjoy :)
Chapter 1:
It's Lily's last year at Hogwarts and she is excited to be going back, but is also disappointed that it is the last year. The letter from Professor McGonagall had just come, giving her the list of books she needed and the usual inquired information, but it also gave her a shiny gold badge that read Head Girl. Lily has always been a good student at Hogwarts; and wasn't surprised to see it there.
Lily had to be at Platform 9 ¾ early on 1st of September to help the first year students when they arrived, as it was one of the jobs she had been given. She was there on her own; the Head Boy (Gary Temple) wasn't there because he is so up himself, he thinks he is too superior to be there early. So Lily was there at 10:00am waiting, and waiting in the freezing cold.
"Will they hurry up already?" Lily asked as she rubbed her elbows.
But no one showed for another half hour.
"Finally" Lily said as she saw the first set of students coming through the portal.
"FIRST YEARS OVER HERE!" Lily yelled over the crowded platform, which became crowded within minutes. Small little first years crowded around Lily as she yelled out. She managed to get all of them, they set off onto the train where Lily showed them where the first years sat and where they put their luggage. After they settled in Lily stepped off the train to find her parents to say goodbye.
She couldn't see her parents anywhere, the train started to steam. As it was getting ready to leave students rushed to their parents too say goodbye, others where getting their luggage on the train. One final whistle blew; Lily gave up and rushed to the train and got on. There was a big jerk and the train was off.
Lily wasn't surprised that her parents didn't show up, as they had very important jobs and never really had time to do anything with Lily. Lily roamed up to the prefect's compartment, as that's where the Head Boy and Girl stayed for the train trip.
The train trip was as boring as every other time. Patrolling the halls wasn't much fun either as you always seem to have food thrown at you by some first or second year student. Lily wasn't a very social girl, she kept to herself most of the time and never did anything other then study. It didn't worry her that she didn't have many friends, well actually no friends. She went back to the compartment and read for the rest of the trip. It got dark very quickly so Lily changed into her robes and fixed up her badge.
"Wow, I still can't believe I got picked to be Head Girl" Lily said to herself as she pinned the badge onto her robes.
The train started slowing down, then slowly came to a halt.

(Meanwhile before at Platform 9 ¾)
"Bye mum, bye dad" yelled out a boy from the compartment window as the train started to speed off. His jet-black hair waving in the wind as the train started to take up speed.
"Be careful James and don't get into any trouble," yelled back a small witch who was crying into a handkerchief.
"By son" yelled a muscular tall man who also had jet-black hair.
The Platform then disappeared behind the corner and he was off, off to Hogwarts once again. James put his head back in the window and smiled at Sirius.
"Are we going to behave this year Sirius?" James asked as he grinned an evil grin.
"I don't think so, it's our last year, we have to have some fun!" laughed Sirius.
"Come on guys, we mucked up every year can't we take a break from it for the last year?' asked Remus as he looked at them over his book.
"Remus you say that every year and you know we don't listen to you, what makes you think we are going to listen this time?" Sirius asked.
"Nothing, just asking again, in case you two got over your breaking the rules scenario" replied Remus and with that he lifted the book up to his nose and didn't say another word.
"Don't worry Sirius, he's just cranky cause he didn't get Head Boy" said James.
"I AM NOT CRANKY, I just can't believe they gave the job to Gary, last year he asked me how to spell orange, he's a moron!" Remus yelled at James.
"Ok, calm Remus, don't get all cranky on us or we'll have to get you to take your nap early" laughed James.
"Humph" was all Remus said before he got up and left the compartment.
Sirius and James where in hysterics, but their laughter was soon told off by Lily.
"Can you guys keep the noise down?" Lily asked as she slid the door open.
"You could have knocked," replied James.
"Sorry, just keep the noise down, please"
After Lily had left Sirius got up and closed the door, before turning around to James.
"What's with Lily? Has she got no sense of humour?"
"Dunno mate, maybe she just has to be broken" replied James as he leaned back and closed his eyes.
"And what's that supposed to mean?
But before James could answer the train suddenly stopped. They quickly grabbed their robes and tossed them over their heads.
