What if? [Scorpius Malfoy and Lily Potter Story]

"Stop fighting you two," A black haired man called from the front seat of his car, gripping the steering wheel rather tightly.

"Harry, they always fight," the red haired woman said putting a hand on his shoulder.

"I know Ginny," the children in the back had their arms crossed and were arguing animately. Soon the car pulled up outside the Kings Cross Station. The girl and the boy put their trunks on cart and wheeled them down looking for the platform 2 3/4.

When the red haired girl saw a woman with bushy brown hair holding a red-headed man hands, she ran toward them at a dead out run. "Aunt 'Mione," she cried throwing her arms around her. The woman smiled, relesed her husband's hand and hugged her back.

"Hello, Lily. Excited to be going to Hogwarts? It's your first year," she said and the little girl started tearing up. "What's the matter?"

"Is Slytherin really that bad of a house? Rose says it isn't, but Uncle Ron and James says its terrible," she whined. Hermione was just about to open her mouth when she heard Ginny cry, "Give it a rest James," Hermione watched in humor as the girl turned her attention from the black haired boy to Ron.

"Ronald your putting ideas in his head." she hit him on the arm. "Your lucky Hermione keeps them from turning complete enemies with them before meeting even meeting them," He was about ready to open his mouth again, but Hermione hit him.

"Stop," she said soothingly.

"Is everyone done with their theatrics? There are muggles watching and the last thing we need is the children missing the train. That worked out great for us," then the two men starting laughing, Ron's ears turned red.

"Harry, Ron," the women cried. By now Rose and Hugo, the Weasly's children, were standing next to Lily. Rose was in here third year (the rest in their first),and the spitting image of her mom. Her hair was brown and bushy, with brown eyes and large teeth. Hugo had the Weasly hair, but brown eyes. Lily had long red hair with bright blue eyes, James had messy black hair with hazel eyes. Lily looked just like her mum and James looked like his namesake, except for the fact he had not inheirited the bad eyesight.

"Let's go before it get's ugly. Your Mum has a mean bat boggie hex," Rose whispered. Just then they lined up and ran through the platform. Lily was last in line and just as she was getting ready to dad grabbed her arm.

"Lil? I need to talk to you," he said getting down to her level. "I heard you ask James if Slytherin was that bad, it isn't. Slytherin isn't any less or more than any houses. James was named after your grandfather and a very accomplished man. You may hear bad things about Severus Snape, but they don't know what I know. He was head of Slytherin's house and your grandmothers best friend," he hugged her running her hands through her long hair, which always comforted her. "You were named after a great woman Lily and no matter what house you get in I"ll always love you," she nodded, before running into the wall.



Somehow she managed to find the compartment her brother and Hugo were in. "Where's Rose?" she asked. James shrugged, looking up from one of the only things he read which was Quidditch Weekly.

"She found some of her friends, she's in the compartment three down if you want to look for her," Lily shrugged then sat back in the seat, reading a book her Aunt Hermione bought her, when there was a knock at the door and a nervous looking boy walked in. He was small with large ears and golden hair.

"Hello," Lily said. She looked to Hugo to say something, but he was a shy boy. Her twin said nothing either.

"Don't pay attention to either of them. James is antisocial and Hugo is pretty shy," she said sticking out a hand. At that James muttered something.

"Lucas Creevely," he said. "Can I stay here? All the other comparments are full and there are some sixth year Slythering outside that are scaring all the first years,"

"See?" James said, Lily crossed her arms.

"Your just biased. You spend way too much time with Uncle Ron and Uncle George," she said.

"Lils your just too stubborn to admit I'm right," he said with a smirk. Lily threw the water bottle that had been in her trunk at him. "Ugh! Do you have to live up to your name? Why couldn't you take after Neville?" she asked, referring to one of her parents good friends.

James rolled his eyes and went back to reading, Hugo sat their silently laughing. Then the Lucas opened his mouth. "Do you two always fight like this?" just as Lily was about to say 'no', Hugo answered for her. "Yes, their the Potter twins what do you expect?"

"Fraternal," Lily explained looking at her brother. The two of them looked nothing alike at all, but Lucas seemed to be caught on the word Potter.

"Potter, as in Harry Potter's your dad. My dad's brother was friends with him at school!" James rolled his eyes. He hated all the attention he got, because he had a famous father. Lucas obviously embarrassed by his outburst. The rest of the trip passed quietly.

Rose walked in when the castle started to come into view. "You should change into your robes, we'll be arriving soon," she said. "Come with me you can change in my compartment," Lily nodded, because she knew it was code for: let's talk.

Soon she grabbed her robes and headed out into her empty compartment. It was strange. "A lot of my friend's are fifth year and are prefects. You know Regina Longbottom?" she asked refering to Luna and Neville's daughter, Lily nodded.

"Yeah, plus a couple others. So who was the kid?" she asked as Lily got dressed.

"His name was Lucas Creevly," then Rose started breaking out in laughter. "What?"

"Dad told me about him, don't give me that look. Apparently his older brother followed him and Uncle Harry around everywhere with his camera. He was a muggleborn," Rose explained and she nodded. "We have time, come here I'll do your hair," she said. Rose knew having loose hair bugged me and I loved having it in a french braid but could never do it.

We both sat on the floor. "Nervous about the sorting?" she asked. Lily nodded, but it made Rose pull hard on her head. "Don't worry, all they do is put a hat on your head." she said. "There done! You better get back before James starts to worry," she said jokingly. Lily hit her arm and left, only to find the train stopped. "First year's, this way," A large man called. He would have scared her if he didn't come over almost every day this summer, Hagrid.

In a hurry to make it back, she ran into a boy. His hair was white blonde with piercing grey eyes. "Sorry," they both said at the same time. "I'm Lily," she said sticking out a hand. He was about to open his mouth when James came to her side angry.

"Leave my sister alone, Malfoy," he spat, putting an arm around her. She shoved it away.

"It was an accident James," she told him going to her twins side.

"Sure it was," he said putting an arm around her, Lily threw it off yet again.

"Excuse my brother. I would say he isn't normally like this, but I would be lying." James gripped her.

"It's okay. I understand," the boy said. He talked quietly. James said the boy was Malfoy, but Lily couldn't picture him as Draco's son. "Let's go before we miss the boats," she told him, half dragging him.
