Every day Lily and I went to play near the tree where we met, we talked until she had to go home and so we continued as we grew little by little until we were both eleven.
I was in my room reading the books on dark magic how I do every day, to distract myself from my parents fights, I heard a little knock on the window and looked to see what it was and saw a white owl that was hitting the window with one of its legs and apparently the owl had a kind of letter in its beak, I went to the window and opened it, the owl quickly entered and dropped the letter on my bed, then left through the window, I stared at the owl fly through the beautiful sky until I lost sight of it, I closed the window and lay on my bed, I grabbed the letter that the owl left, I immediately made out the Hogwarts logo, I was excited at last my Hogwarts letter had arrived, I went out I left my room and I went stealthily to the exit of my house, when I arrived I opened the door carefully and closed it behind me, I immediately started running up to the old tree to meet Lily, it took a few minutes to arrive but fortunately She was there, she seemed very happy and she saw me arrive, she was tired from running, I have never been very athletic to say, she just smiled at me and showed me her Hogwarts letter, I was even more happy, it was very close to Let's both go to Hogwarts.
At last the day had arrived, my mother had accompanied us to station 9¾, Lily was excited to board the train that would take us to Hogwarts, my mother said goodbye to us and returned home, she hoped that my father would not do anything wrong while I was at Hogwarts, but knowing Tobias it was highly unlikely that he would treat my mother with silk gloves.
Lily and I got on the train and looked for an empty compartment to just sit on, we went through several compartments, most of them were full until Lily found an empty one, we sat down and closed the compartment door.
We looked at each other for a while until Lily broke the silence by asking me "What house do you want to be in Sev?" I blushed at how he called me and replied "Slytherin, it's the best house at Hogwarts".
"That's not true, everyone knows that Gryffindor is the best house is where the brave live, in Slytherin there are only disgusting snakes".
I turned my head to one side to see who the voice belonged to, I saw a boy with messy hair and he wore a little big glasses, he had a smug look on his face and next to him was another boy with shoulder-length hair that he had a funny expression on his face, apparently they opened the compartment door while Lily and I were talking, the messy haired boy entered the compartment and sat next to Lily, then he looked at me with contempt and said "So you want to too be part of the group of crawling snakes that one future will become Death Eaters "I frowned and replied" They are not crawling snakes, stop bothering me and get out of here "Lily whispered softly to me" Severus, calm down "the boy sitting next to him said "Severus? Is that your name? You should call yourself Snivellus from complaining so much" the other boy who was still standing started to laugh.
"By the way my name is James Potter" said the messy haired boy to the redhead. "I'm Lily Evans" the redhead shook James's hand, Severus frowned when he saw them, Lily realized this and said to James "You better go, Sev is not comfortable with you" James laughed and said "You better go greasy" Lily when hearing this got angry, took the hand of Severus and they left the compartment.
The two found another compartment, entered and sat down, this time there were no more interruptions, Severus was slowly closing his eyes falling asleep, Lily stared at him for a while when he checked that he was fast asleep, sat next to him and rested his head on his shoulder falling asleep too.
"Sev wake up .." I felt someone grab my shoulder roughly and I slowly opened my eyes seeing beautiful green eyes, realizing that Lily's face was too close to mine I blushed and turned my head away so that he would not see my flushed face. "Sev we are almost there we have to change" I understood what she was referring to and I left the compartment for her to change and I went to another place to change myself.
When I came back, Lily had already put on her robe and was calmly looking out the window, I looked at her for a while admiring her beauty, she suddenly turned her head and looked at me, it took a moment to react but when I did, I quickly approached the compartment , I sat down and looked out the window trying to hide it, I couldn't see her but I could feel her gaze fixed on me, my stomach turned a bit, I felt like she was devouring me with her eyes.
A few minutes later the train stopped, all the students got up and left the train, outside a big man greeted us and told us to follow him, we reached some boats, Lily and I sat together in one of the boats, after A few hours we were able to see the great Hogwarts school, I went down first and then Lily followed me, we entered the school where a woman with a very serious expression guided us through the school until we were in front of some large doors and explained to us "When crossing these doors the Sorting hat will choose the house to which it belongs, you can go to Gryffindor the house of the brave, Hufflepuff the house of the loyal, Ravenclaw the house of the wise or Slytherin the house of the cunning "followed by his brief explanation he opened the great doors and we followed her until we were in front of a chair, we saw her holding an old pointed hat that we assumed was the sorting hat, she grabbed a huge list and was calling the new ones, while they approached nervously.
"Lily Evans" when called she approached a little nervous and sat on the chair, the taller woman put her hat on her, it took her a while to decide which house she should go to but finally yelled "Gryffindor!" She got up smiling, walked by my side and when I saw her smile fell a little, I watched her walk away until she sat down at the Gryffindor table next to James. "Severus Snape" I sat in the chair with my head down, the hat barely touched my head when I yelled "Slytherin" the Slytherin table exploded in excitement but I just walked down to the table and sat next to a boy with long blond hair He extended his hand to me and said "I'm Lucius Malfoy" I shook his hand and I stared at the food without tasting it, I was lost in my thoughts until the same blond boy touched my shoulder telling me that it was time to go to the living room common, I got up and followed my other housemates, we got to our common room and they told us the password to enter, we entered and saw that the room was quite dark and was decorated with a dark green and silver gray and the The prefects explained to us which were the girls and boys bedrooms, I went to the boys bedroom and realized that my luggage that I had left on the train was on a bed, I went over and unpacked my luggage after doing so I closed the curtains So they were around me and I lay in bed tired, I stared at the ceiling for a while thinking about Lily.
