3. Lily and Petunia's parents were Muggles, so they had a Muggle
upbringing. Snape's house is in a Muggle village, and his father
was a Muggle. Is it possible that Lily and Snape were childhood
friends, and that she is the girl laughing at the boy on the bucking broomstick in Snape's memories?
Juli:
I like that idea. Lily and Severus knew each other before they started at Hogwarts, and they were friends, they used to play together and everything, but then they turned 11 and started Hogwarts, Lily gets sorted into Gryffindor and Severus into Slytherin, since both houses are sworn enemies, that's the end of their friendship. Severus starts hanging with pure-bloods and embraces their philosophy; he can't be seen with a "Mudblood". Lily tries to remain friends, but Severus won't do it, his reputation is more important. The years pass and Severus pretends he doesn't even know Lily, he acts like she's not worthy of even a 'Hello'.
Snape secretly admires her because she also "hates" James and Sirius, but of course he can't tell her. Their sixth year arrives and Lily starts going out with James, Snape can't believe her, he feels betrayed, then James saves Snape's life at the Prank incident, and Severus starts hating a bit less James. They graduate from Hogwarts, Severus becomes friends once again with Lily (and this is when Petunia hears the conversation), and of course James doesn't know about this. Then they get married and Severus can't take it so he joins the Death Eaters.
Snape overhears the prophesy and tells Voldemort about it. Voldemort decides it's the Potters' boy, Snape knowing this returns to Dumbledore and offers his help and alliagance. Snape never tells Lily (or James) everything he knows, but deep inside he cares about them, and hates himself for telling Voldemort about the prophesy. Voldemort kills Lily and James, and Severus thinks it's all his fault, so when Harry starts at Hogwarts, he does whatever he can to protect him, but also maintaining his cover...
