After moving to Scotland, Lily is the new girl at Hogwarts High School. She makes new friends and even gets a possible boyfriend- but when a student that she was close with is brutally murdered, everything takes a turn for the worse. From parties to breakups to kidnappings, Lily's high school experience contains much more than she bargained for. Muggle AU, eventual Lily/James.

Lily, devastated from news, runs to the Astronomy Tower for an escape. Little does she know, a certain Marauder goes there as well, and through comfort and late night conversations, they form an unusual yet unbreakable bond. Canon compliant, Sirius/Lily friendship. Oneshot.
