A Life Before Death (Lily/James)

[harrysgurl201]

Well guys...this is my second fic and its a Lily and James one.

Chapter One: Who Is Headboy?

Lily was sitting on her bed at home when a letter came to her...by owl. Lily walked up to her window and let the owl fly in. she took the letter off of the owl's foot and opened it up.

Dear Ms Lily Evans

You have been chosen to be Headgirl for you final year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You are to meet the Headboy in two weeks to go to Hogwarts early to be told the rules and your duties. You will spend two nights in your dorm and then you will travel back home and return on Spetember the first.

Yours Truely,

Albus Dumbledore
(Headmaster of Hogwarts)

"Mom!" Lily screamed while she charged down the stairs to find her mom sitting at the kitchen table.

"What is it? Whats wrong?" Mrs.Evans asked.

"I have been chosen to be Headgirl!"

"Whats going on?" Came in a teenage girl, looking very surly."

"I have been chosen to be headgirl!" Lily said thrusting the letter at her sister, Peatunia.

"Oh...why would I care? At least I don't go to a school for FREAKS!"

"I don't think that you would be able to get in...idiots aren't allowed." Lily shot back at her sister.

"Lily!" Her mom shouted.

"She started it!" Lily said back.

"Well anyways...it says here that you are to go there in two weeks. Thats perfect! I am visiting my sister the same day you leave!" Her mother said.

"Well what am I supposed to do?" Peatunia asked.

"I don't know yet..." Her mother said.

"Ohh...can I stay with Vernon?" Peatunia asked.

"I don't know...I will have to talk to his parents."

"Oh...they won't care...they love me..."

"Its ok with me if its ok with them...just be safe while I am gone."

"There won't be any Peatunia left when mum gets back...Vernon would have eaten her by then...oh...maybe Peatunia should go..." Lily thought in her head.

At the window another owl appeared.

"That is the Potter's owl!" Mrs. Evans exclaimed. She ripped open the letter and read it.

"Ohh Lily...guess who's headboy..."

"No...don't tell me...not James..."

"Yup..."

Chapter Two: I don't Like James!

Lily's Point of View...

"Well are you all packed?" Lily's mum asked. It was the day before Lily was to go to the Potter's house...then to Hogwarts with James.

"Ummm...no...actually I think I am sick...so darn I don't thinkI will be able to go..." Lily said holding her stomach and making a sick face.

"Stop facking it!" Her mum said.

"Has the freak gone yet?" Peatunia asked as she stepped into her sister's room.

"Has it looked as if I had gone anywhere?" Lily asked.

"So are you all packed honey?" The girls mum asked Peatunia."

"Yes I am. I can't wait to go to Vernon's!" Peatunia squealed.

"You better behave your self. I don't want to her about any funny business going on." Her mum said.

"Fine..." Peatunia said.

"Well we are going to leave you you alone to pack." Lily's mum said leaving the room with Peatunia.

"I don't want to go to Jame's house!" Lily said out loud.

"Oh yes you do." Said a little voice in Lily's head.

"No I don't!" Lily said out loud.

"Come on get real! When you were in your sixth year all you did was write 'Mrs.James Potter' all over you notebooks when you were bored in class." Said the annoying little voice.

"I was talking about a different James Potter!" Lily said out loud.

"Lily? Are you ok up there? You are yelling at nothing!" Lily's mum called up the stairs."

"Yes! I am fine!" Lily called back.

"So what if I like James?" Lily wispered more quietly to herself, "He doesn't like me..."

"Thats all you know..." The voice said back
**

James Point of View...

"Son...?" Jame's father knocked on the door of James bedroom.

"Yes Dad?"

"I wanted to talk to you before Lily got here."

"Talk to me about what."

"I know you like her and I just wanted to make sure that-"

"Since when do I like Lily?" James cut his father off.

"I don't know...since you first met her on your first trip to Hogwarts..." His father said laughing.

"Well I don't!"

"Yeah right."

"Well what were you going to say?" James asked.

"I don't want you to make Lily feel uncomfortable while she is in our house."

"What do you think I am going to do?"

His father raised his eyebrows.

"I don't think she even likes me..."

"Oh you would be surprised..." His father said.

Chapter Three: Hello James...

Lily's mom was driving Lily to Jame's house.

"Mum! I don't want to go!" Lily started to whine as they were drawing nearer and nearer to Jame's house.

"It will only be for a little while. And besides his parents are nice and he is to..."

"He is also a freak! Just like her!" Peatunia shouted from the back.

"Shut up! You are so annoying! You are just jealous because I can do magic and you can't!" Lily said from the front.

"Girls," her mother said. "Stop shouting at one another!"

"Fine." Peatunia said.

"Oh Lily, I should tell you. You are going to remain at Jame's house for the rest of your summer break." Her mum said casually.

"Why?" Lily shouted.

"Because Jame's mother offered and I accepted and you are going."

"Haha..." Peatunia said. "I get to stay with Vernon for the rest of the summer don't I?"

"No..." Her mother said.

"Why not?"

"Because you are going to come with me to your aunt's house instead of going to Vernon's house at all. I called his father last night to tell him that our plans have changed."

"I don't want to go with you! Why does Lily get to stay at her boyfriends house?"

"He is not my boyfriend!" Lily snapped.

"Oh...I suppose James is just a friend that happens to be a hot looking guy..." Peatunia said sarcastically."

"No....he happens to be the guy that I dream of marrying someday..." Lily said in her mind.

I love it! It hints at the future very well... I loved the bit where Petunia doesn't get to stay at Vernon's at all, that was very funny

Great job!
