“Allergy Season;
It Never Goes Away”

Lily does not enjoy the first week of Hogwarts.

Black is a cocky jerk. Potter is an annoying prat. The girls aren’t bad.

But Lily really misses Petunia.

Why wasn’t she sorted Slytherin? Why wasn’t Severus sorted Gryffindor? Never before has she felt so alone, despite so many people around. It would be so much easier if Sev was just around more.

“Hey, Evans. Where’s Snivelly at?” asks Potter.

Lily rolls her eyes. “Shut up, Potter. I’m allergic to you.” To emphasize her point, she shoves him so he stumbles backwards into the nearby couch. “Don’t talk to me again.”
