You Can Wish Potter, You Can Wish

Chapter 1 - The Train

September 1st

Lily's POV

I ran, thinking 'I'm going to crash! I'm going to crash!'. When I didn't, I was surprised. I opened my eyes which I didn't realise were shut and gasped in amazement. A scarlet steam train. 'The Hogwarts Express' the front of the train read. When I hit over the shock I got another one. I saw hundreds of people, with the same trunk as me, and I thought, it's real! I know you're thinking, well obviously it's real, you don't normally run through a solid brick wall, but I'm new to this whole "magic" thing. I was too engulfed in my thoughts to realise that mum and dad had appeared next to me. They both had looks that were saying WOW!WOW!WOW! Which I no doubt had on my face. Mum was the first to recover from the shock and said,

"Well Lily, honey, I guess we have to go now." Wait, I said to mum and dad, where's 'Tuney?!?!

"Mum, where's 'Tuney?" I asked, worried.

"Oh, um well, she um, saidthatshedidntwanttogotoafreakstation." Mum got a sad expression on her face, as if it was her fault.

"Oh." That's all I could think to say. "Well, mum, don't worry, it's not your fault she doesn't want to have a freak sister." My voice shook at the end and dad noticed.

"Lily, it's not your fault you're special, and you're definitely not a freak, don't let Petunia bring you down." Dad said encouragingly.

"But I am a fre-"

"Lily, you're not a freak, you're amazing and we love you, now go and have some fun learning magic,"

"And when you come home for Christmas don't turn us all into frogs!" Dad joked. I laughed, of course I wouldn't turn them into frogs.

"Okay, I think I should go now, because it's quarter to, and the train leaves at eleven. Bye mum, bye dad, I love you and I'll write at least every two weeks. I'd write everyday, but I don't know how busy I'll be."

"Bye Lily!" They both said at the same time.

I pushed my trolley across the platform and with a final goodbye, I tried to carry my trunk onto the train, but failed until a second later, the trunk got lighter and I saw a handsome boy with dark hair, hazel eyes and glasses, holding my trunk. I blushed thinking about those amazing eyes, they looked so deep, I felt like melting NO! Lily, no! He's just nice, and you've only just met him. Get a grip. We carried my trunk onto the train and he put it open an empty compartment and I still stood there, staring into his eyes. I realised I was staring, and blushed deeper, my face almost as red as my hair. Great, now he'll think of you as a weirdo and find you creepy. Great start Lily, I thought cringing.

"Um, thank you." I carried on staring, then jerked into reality again. "For, er carrying um, my trunk" I blushed harder and mentally slapped myself. What a fool I must look like to him, first staring, then blushing like crazy, more staring and then not even thanking him properly. I was very surprised at his response and he made me angry, but I also felt a tiny bit relieved, because he didn't seem to realise I was a creepy girl who stares at him and blushes all the time.

"Well, why wouldn't I help a damsel in distress, and of course, why would I miss a chance to show off my strength and all my muscles." Then he winked. From behind him, another quite handsome boy (brown hair, grey eyes) came out and then said mockingly,

"More like show off in front of a pretty girl" I blushed at that (rarest thing ever) "and flash your noodle arms. I'm Sirius Black, by the way, of the ancient and most noble house of Black, the longest line of Slytherins for 700 years, but that's going to stop soon, because I'm going to be in Gryffindor." He held out his hand, which I politely shook, saying,

"Lily Evans, from the 4 year old and not noble house of Evans, and I broke our tradition of not doing magic, and the long line of muggles is broken." I answered.

The handsome boy who carried my trunk said,

"Potter, James Potter, the one and only man of your dreams!" He exclaimed, taking my hand and kissing it. I get the sense that he's quite big headed.

"You wish, Potter." I answered.

We sat down in the compartment and I looked out the window. I caught sight of black hair and a hooked nose...

"Sev!!!" I screamed and ran to him and hugged him. He seemed quite taken aback at me hugging him, but he recovered and said

"Lily! Great to see you, how have you been?" He asked. I haven't seen him since Friday (today is Sunday).

"I'm fine. Do you want to come in?" I answered.

"Um, yes, of course. But may I ask, what are these boys doing here?" He asked.

"Well Potter carried my trunk onto the train, insisted that he's the man of my dreams and Mr. Very Noble Black came in and told me about his very long line of Slytherin relatives."

"Well, do you want to get a compartment with me now, instead of them?" Sev sneered.

"Severus, that's a bit rude!" I said, gesturing Potter and Black, even though Potter was annoying, he was human.

"What's that? Snivellus? What a great name! I looooove it" Shouted Black, and started running up and down the corridor outside the compartment chanting 'SNIVELLUS!'

Sev looked angry, to be a bit plain, actually, he was furious

"Well, if you'd rather stay in a room with them, then I'll go." He shouted at me, and ran out.

"See ya later, Snivelly!" James shouted.

I got really angry. As i pulled my wand out of my pocket i thought about all the spells I read about, and decided on the horn growing hex and screamed 'anteoculatia' at Potter, pointing my wand at him and ran after Sev. In between his laughs at Potter's horns, Black still managed to shout 'SNIVELLUS', so I shot a silencing spell at him. It became immediately quiet.

I walked past a few compartments and when I was outside one with three girls in, one with curly brown hair and dark brown eyes came out and said,

"Thank you for silencing Black. Do you want to sit with us? I'm Alice Prewett, I'm in first year."

"Lily Evans, I'm in first year too." I said, as I entered their compartment, completely forgetting about Sev.

"I'm Mary Macdonald, and that's Marlene McKinnon, we're both first years." Mary said.

We sat in the compartment and talked, and I learnt that Alice was very clumsy, Mary was a great listener and Marlene was very funny. We chatted for about half an hour, until loud voices outside in the corridor disrupted us.

"Snivelly, why don't you just go away, nobody wants a slimeball like you here!" Potter's voice shouted.

"Yeah, Snivellus, go and wash your hair it's so greasy no wonder Evans didn't want to share a compartment with you!" Black taunted.

"You can speak! She literally ran out of yours! And I happen to be her best friend!" Sev replied "and she wouldn't want to hang out with you idiots anyway because you're too big headed to even see she doesn't like you, you four eyed freak!"

"THATS ENOUGH!!!!!! Stop shouting and go to your compartments, I'm not talking to either of you." I screamed at them, rushing out of my compartment.

As Potter walked away with Black, I swear I heard him mutter 'I'm gonna marry her one day'
