Yeah, my first fic! Please review, say what you think, and tell me if I misspelled anything (I suck at spelling)! The rating is for future chapters.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, or anything that comes out of that brilliant, crazy mind of J.K. Rowling. But I do own Mundy and Annie, you can tell who they are, their only two characters that suck!
It wasn't funny any more. Lily had had to spend six years with this jerk-of-a-gryffindor, and she wasn't about to let him embarrass her in front of the whole school again, she wasn't about to let him make her life-and her mind- more miserable then it had the last six years. This was her seventh and final year, and things were going to be much different then her previous years at Hogwarts.
Lily Evans walked down the train to find an empty compartment; she could see James and his friends staring at her from a compartment window up ahead, ready to pounce. Lily sighed, and reached down in her pocket to put a hand on her wand, ready to hex the life out of them.
Lily didn't know why she disliked James Potter so much, I mean, he wasn't that bad. Sure, he had a big head, but so did she, with her grades, her charm, and her wit, she couldn't help but boast a little.
No, she knew why she disliked him; she just didn't want to admit it. It wasn't because of the stupid rumor that had been around since her fourth year, that "she really likes him but won't show it" rumor.
In the last year though, he had been showing these small signs of courtesy, and it didn't seem like the kind of thing he would do to try and win her over, it just seemed like, well, him.
But she didn't want that, she had enough on her plate as it was, and not just school, no she had had other relationships, just ones that no one knew of. Complicated relationships, why did everything have to be so complicated!
I mean, yeah sure, every teen finds sexuality complicated, but Lily was convinced that she was more confused then most, and she couldn't talk to any of her girlfriends about it.
No, no. It wasn't like that, she wasn't a lesbian! Wait, no, she couldn't exactly say that. Ahg! You see!
"Hey there Lily" said a voice that made Lily jump. Oh shit she thought, I got lost in thought, again!
Lily turned to face the messy haired boy looking at her with his crooked smile. Lily smiled back, which was meant to look more like a grimace, but she must have failed because James took her by the arm and said "come on, your sitting with us" He tried to pull her into the compartment with the other boys, but Lily recovered from the shock and stood her ground "No Potter, I'm sitting with my friends" she said firmly, but James just smiled "come on Lily, we're your friends, now get in here!"
"No Potter, Let GO!" Lily almost screamed. The two wrestled in the hall for a while, James laughing, Lily trying hard not to. I mean, it was a bit funny.
"Move, muggle lover!" the two of them stopped and looked to the side. Severes Snape stood there, looking impatient and unhappy. "Bugger off Snivelus!" came the cool voice of Sirius Black from within the compartment. James and Severes stared at each other.
Oh god, please! Don't let Severes be looking into his mind, Please!
"You heard the man, bugger off!" James spat at the boy rising a few inches above him. Severes paid no attention to him and turned to look Lily. Lily tried to look away, but those haunting eyes pierced hers before she could turn. He looked deep into her eyes and Lily was overflowed with emotions, some she couldn't even place.
"I mean NOW!" Their staring session was broken when a jet of red light shot right passed Severes's ear. "James, Stop!" Lily reached into her pocket for her wand, but it wasn't there. It must have fallen on the floor while we were fighting. Jets of light were flying in every direction now, and the three other boys that had been listening in from the compartment were now crammed in the door way, shouting and cheering.
Lily growled to herself-yes that's right, she GROWLED-and did the first thing that came to mind to stop the two boys from killing each other. Lily pounced on one of the boys-she couldn't tell which one-which just happened to be James, and the two of them went crashing to the floor. Severes towered over the two lying on the ground, and pointed his wand at James. "Severes, Please……" But Lily was cut off by a loud cough.
The three teens looked up to see the form of their Defense teacher, Professor Mundy, looking at the seen with a vary teacher like expression on his face, if there was such a thing.
Lily groaned and buried her face in the floor, which actually happened to be James's chest. Giving a slight yelp when she found that out, she looked back at the professor.
The wizard standing before them was Professor Nicolas Mundy, a tall, broad shouldered, middle aged man. With flecks of grey in his already dirty blonde hair. He had a round face with round light-brown eyes, and a air of charm all about him. He was really handsome for a teacher, even his five o'clock shadow-that seemed to appear much earlier then five o'clock-didn't make him any less handsome. At least that's what Lily thought.
"Mr. Potter, Mr. Snape, Ms. Evans, would you kindly come with me to the detention compartment?" the man said coolly. The boys went into an uproar of protests, Lily sat quite silent.
"Please, Please. It's either fifty points from each house, or the rest of the train ride with me, take your pick"
James was about to protest, but Lily covered his mouth. He grunted, but then giving into fate, got to his feet and extended a hand to her, almost as if it was second nature. Oh , if only he wouldn't do things like this. This is how he made her life harder. If only she would stop falling for him!
The four of them made their way to the back of the train. Lily looked around; in all her seven years of riding this train she didn't think she had ever been this far back. It got quieter as they went back further. Mundy stopped at a compartment at the vary back of the train, there was a window in front of her, she watched the landscape that they were leaving behind until the others had bustled into the small box of a room. As she climbed in, she heard the loud voice of James practically shout "Now what has Bi-Polla-Molla done this time?" he chuckled, until Mundy slapped him over the head.
Oh no no no! how could this happen, how could we all end up in the same room together! No, it can't her, the universe isn't cruel enough to let it be her!
Lily's fears were confirmed though, when the small wispy voice of the seventh year, slightly insane ravenclaw girl Annie Molla caught her ear as she almost whispered "turned over the trolley, it wasn't making me happy"
James moved aside, and the small crouched girl came into view. Her long brown hair was messy and frizzy as usual, her blue eyes looked as though she hadn't slept in days, and her skin look as paper white as ever. Yes, this was Annie alright.
Lily looked around the room. How did she get herself into this mess? She wanted her life to be less complicated, then how did she land herself in a compartment with every person she had ever had a thing with.
That's great Lily! So much for starting out on the right foot!
