Hope you enjoy this. Have fun reading it. 

Lily Evans sat up in bed, sighing. She brushed a strand of deep red hair out of her eyes and pulled back the covers, hopping out of bed. Today was the day she found if she got into the University she wanted to go to. Hogwarts University for the gifted was a very prestigious school and only offered a couple of scholarships a year. She opened her door and ran down the stairs quickly. She nearly ran into her older sister, Petunia, who gave her a look of deepest loathing. Lily stopped, sighing sadly, then walked slowly into the kitchen. There was a letter by her seat, and her parents were watching it as if it was about to fly in the air and start screaming at them. Lily grinned when she saw it, and sat down, ripping the envelope open. She had registered the Hogwarts seal and couldn't wait to open it. She read it quickly, then read it again, just to make sure. She looked up at her parents, excitement shining in her emerald eyes. Petunia stomped into the kitchen, looking irritable.

"Mum, Dad, I'm going to see Vernon. Lily, don't be sad that you didn't get in, Hogwarts doesn't accept FREAKS," Petunia spat, stomping back out of the kitchen.

Lily sighed sadly, then turned back to her parents, who were watching her with worried eyes. She grinned at them, grabbing a piece of toast. Her parents kept looking at her expectantly.

"I got in. Mum, Dad, I got in," Lily said, grinning excitedly.

"Well done, darling. When does term start?" Lily's mother asked.

They continued discussing the details through breakfast. When they finished, Lily ran upstairs and opened her phone, listening to 'All The Young Dudes' and texting her best friends. Alice and Molly Prewett had also applied to Hogwarts University.

The Gay Gals:

Lilsy: Yes I am.

Mollen: That is so exciting. Did you know that Arthur is going there as well. How exciting is that.

Lilsy: also, they made a group chat for new students.
