William Sinclair tried as best as he could to hide who he was, everything in his power. His long silvery blonde hair got a dose of black dye on it every chance he got, that was accept two chunks in the front that he dyed dark blue, he also wore baggy sweaters and wrinkled pants to add more to the unattractive package and as an added bonus it also meant he could walk the streets of London without getting called a narc. He really wished he could wear sunglasses all the time too, that way he could hide his sapphire colored eyes but sadly that only caused him to end up falling face forward all to often. It seemed there was just no way to hide that he was a veela, inherited from his mother and more than anything he wished there was some charm to get rid of it. He was used to the occasional looks he got, but that doesn't mean he liked the attention.
Here he was sitting in the train car waiting for his friends Lily and Severus, about to start a new school year. They had bonded together the very first time they met on the train, all three of them outcasts in their own right. It didn't take long after that for them to become as close as siblings, though he knew that Severus certainly didn't see Lily as a sister. They told each other everything, Severus talking of his horrible home life, Lily being muggle born, and Will talking about being a veela.
"Here he is Sevy." Lily smiled sticking her head in the car, calling out to her friend.
"Hey Lil, have a good summer?" Will chuckled, looking up from his book of short stories.
"Same as any other." she shrugged sitting beside him, Severus walking in to sit across from the pair.
"How about you Sevy, make up any good charms lately?" Will asked with a smirk.
"Something that should help with your hair dyeing." Severus smirked.
"Thanks." Will smiled, Severus really was a nice guy but Will was sure part of it was the fact that Will was gay and posed no threat to his attraction of Lily. He knew how rude and snide Severus could be, he might have been picked on a lot in the halls but he had a wit that could cut through you like a knife.
"Spotted the Marauders?" Lily asked warily.
"They walked by a moment or two ago, but without fair Lily to drool over why would they stop." Will added playfully as he shot Lily a look.
"Because we all know quite well that Sirius Black is in love with you." Lily teased back, poking her friend in the side.
"I think its my charms that hold his attention." Will glared, Severus chuckling and shaking his head across from them.
"I think he really likes you Will." Severus argued, yet again taking up Lily's side.
"Either way nothing is going to EVER come of it." Will responded as he settled down into his seat more, reopening his book.
"Well we need to find you a man, know any good prospects from Slytherin Sevy?" Lily asked, her eyes practically sparkling at the thought of playing match maker.
"Lucius Malfoy maybe." Severus shrugged, his brow furrowed deep in thought.
"I'd rather take up with a Gringot's window teller." Will warned.
"Maybe Remus Lupin, he might be a Marauder but he's really a sweet boy." Lily nodded hopefully.
"Remus is really sweet but just not my type, he is fun to talk to thought." Will argued as the train began to take off.
"I have no idea then, you are just picky." Lily pouted, crossing her arms.
"And you gave me such a wide selection too." Will chuckled slightly as the train began to take off. As usual a stewardess began her trek down the hall, selling candies and such to each car. It had become a tradition that the trio always purchased chocolate frogs, Lily or Will buying Severus as money was usually tight.
"Who did you get?" Lily asked as they opened their packages, knowing from past experience to grab the frog right away.
"I got Morgan Le Fey." Will smiled before popping the confection into his mouth.
"Albus Dumbledore for me." Severus smiled.
"I got Helga Hufflepuff." Lily announced showing off her card.
"Godric Gryffindor for me." came from the doorway, three heads snapping around to see Remus Lupin standing before them.
"Hello Remus." Will nodded politely.
"I come bearing gifts from your admirers." Remus smirked playfully, setting wrapped gifts on Lily and Will's laps.
"They are relentless aren't they." Lily sighed slightly annoyed.
"Sorry." Remus chuckled as he walked out the door.
"Any idea what they could be?" Will asked warily, fiddling with the rather large ornate bow on the top of his.
"Perhaps something for which to beat them with?" Lily chuckled.
"Here's hoping." Will smirked unwrapping his, finding a small book of poetry inside, Lily on the other hand found a small bottle of perfume.
"That's not so bad." Lily shrugged, looking up to see Severus practically scowling at the bottle.
"Probably smells like the bogs." he added snidely.
"I don't plan to find out." Lily replied as she pushed it aside.
"I guess he has some taste is he likes poetry." Will shrugged opening the book and looking through the collection of authors more than a little impressed.
"So is there hope for you and Sirius Black yet?" Lily asked hopefully, her hands clasped together almost in prayer.
"I wouldn't go that far." Will mused, sliding the book into his satchel.
XXXXXXXXXX
"Hello William." Sirius practically purred as he walked into the Gryffindor common room where he and Lily stood talking.
"Hello Sirius." Will nodded politely, Lily practically giddy with glee over the small conversation till she spotted James Potter's leering eyes.
"Lily." James nodded, blushing slightly. Lily's only response was to turn her head and look intently at a painting on the wall.
"Look forward to seeing you again." Sirius smiled as he and James walked up the stairs towards their room, his gaze looked on Will's.
"You were more polite than usual." Lily smiled.
"And you broke poor James's heart." Will chuckled as they went and perched themselves on a couch in front of the fireplace.
"I am simply making sure the message got across." Lily argued, nudging her friend jokingly.
"Then why did you keep the perfume?" Will questioned, Lily looking over at him with wide eyes.
"I didn't." Lily tried to argued, quickly snapping her head forward.
"Yes you did." Will smirked egging her on.
"How do you know I did." Lily questioned defiantly.
"That totally gobsmacked look you gave me a moment ago told me." Will answered falling back into the couch laughing.
"Please don't tell Sevy, he would sulk to no end." Lily begged, pulling on her friends arm.
"I promise." Will relented, still laughing a little.
"Good, things would just become to complicated if he thought I liked James." Lily sighed falling back into the couch next to her friend.
"Well do you?" Will asked, looking over at her.
"Absolutely not!" Lily practically shouted.
"I do believe the lady protests to much!" Will replied amused.
"I don't!" Lily argued as Will stood.
"Calm down Lily I was only teasing." Will chuckled, holding his hands up in defeat.
"Good." Lily huffed as she stood up next to him.
"Get some sleep, I'll see you at breakfast." Will yawned, as he started up the stairs to the boys dorm.
"Night." Lily replied rather flatly, Will wasn't sure if she was still mad at him or maybe something more. Something told him it was something more, for girls didn't keep presents from boys they hated he thought with a smirk.
SOOOOO...whatcha think? COME ON PWEASE TELL ME...it won't take long I promise lol.
