Chapter 1

Hello, my name is Lily Evens, and my life sucks.

Lily was sitting in her room writing in the new journal her parents had bought her as welcome home present.

If you're wondering, Why welcome home? Where was she? I will tell you... and even if you're not, I will tell you any way.

Lily was a witch.

Not just any witch, a witch who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She was also a model student, a prefect (rule enforcer type person) and was going to be Head Girl in two weeks back at school. This is a great honor. The Head Girl and Head Boy get to tell the prefects what to do. He he!

Any way, back to Lily.

I'm a witch who goes to a school for magic. I'm going to be back there in two weeks. It's summer break right now. Lily wrote, looking down at her self she started writing again. I'm 5"2, not fat, not thin, with red hair and green eyes. Lily never gave herself enough credit. She was really slim and trim, but not too skinny, with shiny and smooth red hair that fell in soft waves half way down her back, and the most brilliant emerald green eyes that sparkled brightly.

Any way, I like to read and shop. I love my best friends, Rachel Anderson, Kay Adams (short for Kristine) and Lila Goldstein. I totally wish I was named Lila. Lila is such a beautiful name. I hate Quiddich (a magical sport played in the air). It makes me sick to the stomach. That and Potter. No, his first name is not Potter, its James, but I refer to him by his last name because he's an arrogant, pig headed, self-centered jerk. I'm not going to explain why now; it would take up the rest of the pages. But you will hear a lot about him, because he's a womanizing bastard, and that's being nice. He and his friends think they run the school: Peter, a short fat kid. I have no idea why he's in the group, because they're very popular and he's...well kind of lame. Remus. I like him. He's smart, and shy, and even nice. I don't know why he hangs out with them either. Last, and sadly totally least, Sirius, known as the hottest guy in school, if you like womanizing bastards, shags a girl a night, need I say more. They are the hot trio, as most girls call them. James, who has hazel eyes, totally ripped, but still a pompous jackass, Quidditch team captain, black messy hair, totally hot, always flirty and womanizing...wait what was that about hot? That was not me speaking, scratch that, other girls think he's totally hot, I do not! Remus has sandy blonde hair, gorgeous brown eyes, tall and thin but not ripped. I think he's cute. But I like him as a friend; he's the only Marauder I get along with. Oh yeah, they pompously dubbed them selves the Marauders. There's not much to say about Peter. And then there's Sirius. He acts stupid but he gets good grades, thinks he's funny, ripped, long shaggy black hair, midnight blue eyes, hot if you like guys who don't give a damn about women's feelings. Any way while I'm doing descriptions I'll tell you about my friends. There's Rachel (Rach for short). She is loved by all the guys, flirty, but nice deep down, and into sports, on the team and all, blah blah blah, 5"7, long blonde hair, blue eyes, big boobs, yada yada yada. There's Kay (Kristine), 5"5, brown hair, honey brown eyes, and brown skin that practically glows. Also considered hot. She's really nice, has great taste in clothes. I don't know why. Last there's Lila. She is selfless and so kind and sweet, always helping others, and very sensitive. Gorgeous, midnight black hair and crystal blue eyes, 5"4. Well that's the end on descriptions. I'm gonna go get something to eat. I'll write again later...maybe.Lily got up off her bed and descended the stairs to her kitchen. No one else was home. Her older sister Petunia was staying with her new fiancé and her parents were both at work. Only two more weeks until I can go back to school Lily thought. She hated having to stay in the Muggle world, her sister always calling her a freak and criticizing her owl, Artemis, who at that very moment was tapping on the kitchen window and Lily had just noticed. Finally, I thought she'd never get back from Kay's. She opened the window and took the piece of parchment off her owl's leg. The letter read,

Me, Rach and Lila are all going to get our stuff from Diagon Ally on the 28th, we'll meet you there at Flourish and Blott's, the book store if you can come at 11:30. We can shop, get lunch and just hang out. Tell me if you can come.

-Kay

Lily quickly scribbled yes and the back of the parchment and sent Artemis off once more. At least I have something to look forward to before the beginning of school Lily thought as she took the orange juice out of the fridge. I really wish they had pumpkin juice here, she sighed and went back up to her room.

The rest of the time until school passed uneventfully, and as most of her stuff, Lily's journal was packed at the bottom of her school trunk not being used. Naturally, she had a good time shopping, but she was still moping about being stuck in the Muggle world. They just don't know what it's like. I'm practically cut off from magic. All of them at least come from non-Muggle families. She sighed as she ticked of the last day on her calendar before school. At least school starts tomorrow she thought as she switched out the lights and went to bed.
