FICTION, MRS. JK ROWLING. YOU MAY ALL PROCEED....
It was her seventh year at Hogwarts. Lily Evans kneeled on the grass, tossing pebbles into the lake. Her emerald green eyes were brimming with tears and her chin trembled. "Dumb old Potter. Dosent he know when to stop?" She attepted to toss another stone into the lake but her eyes were so blurry that she hit a stone and not the water. Who cares? It was a dumb game anyway. Dumb game. Dumb Potter. Everything in her life had been going fine that first year at Hogwarts, then HE had to come along, with his sweet smile and his jokes and hid untidy black hair. She hated him.
"Lil! Lil..." James ran up to where she was sitting. He was out of breath with panting, and tiny beads of sweat were on his forehead. "You're a pretty fast runner, y'know that?" His bottom lip curled itself into a half -smile.
"Go away Potter."
"Lil, let me explain. Just let me-"
"You don't have to explain anything. I saw the whole thing." She sniffled.
"Lily, Madge was just-"
"Wiping some crumbs off your lips? How courteous of her."
"Lily, you have to believe me. I didn't want for it to happen. Madge wanted me back, but that's not how I felt at all. Honest, Lily."
"Potter, you want to hear a story?" She interrupted before he could answer, "Here's a story. It's about a girl who liked a boy." She threw a stone into the lake, a perfect bull 's eye. "The guy seemed to like the girl, too." She threw another stone into the water, this time her aim was weaker. Tears rolled onto her cheeks. "Then one day, the girl caught the boy kissing his ex-girlfriend. You can stop me if this sounds familiar."
She lowered her hand and wiped the ongoing tears on the sleeve of her robe.
"Lil." James came up to her, his hand touching her shoulder lightly, which immediately sent her to a howl.
"DON'T TOUCH ME! DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH ME!" She yelled, her green eyes bleary and red.
She ran away in tears.
James watched her leave with a heavy heart. Oh, no. What had he done?
