Something Stupid
I hate him. I really do. But I still found myself writing his name all over my potions essay. When I ran out of space I turned the piece of parchment and wrote things like his name or my name with his last name. Lily Potter didn't sound all that bad. I couldn't finish my thoughts when I heard the door leading to the Heads common room open. I quickly put my potions essay in my school bag breathing hard. I looked up and I saw that perfect face with that perfect smile and with the messy yet, also perfect messy dark hair.
"Oh, Evans hi I didn't know you were here."
"Well now you do don't you?" I snapped back while walking away.
Before I reached the door I felt his strong grip on my arm turning me around.
"Why? Why Lily? I try to be nice to you and all you can do is snap back at me!"
He let go of me and sat down on the couch with a sad face looking at the fire that reflected on his eyes. I was about to open the door when I heard his throw everything that was on the table onto the floor. I didn't dare look back so I just walked out into the dark hallway without looking back and into the Gryffindor common room. I was about to walk up to my dormitory but I took my potions essay out of my bag and dropped it into the fire and watched it burn.
The next day there were no cold looks or no ignoring. He acted as the night before hadn't happened. After lunch I decided to read by the lake. Just as I had expected Sirius and James were next to me in no time.
"Hello Lily. Now will you do me the pleasure to go out with me?" asked James acting as if he was reading over my shoulder. Not willing to waste more breath in saying no I took out a piece of parchment and a quill. I wrote in big letters
JAMES I SAID
NO!
"Please?"
"No!"
"Why? Any good reasons?"
"Do you want the long or short list? The long list is going to take me longer than what I'm willing to waste."
"Please?" He asked yet again ignoring my long/short list idea.
"NO!"
"Fine then. Common Padfoot lets go."
"I'll be there in a second, mate. I just want to have a word with our-I mean your flower." James shrugged and walked away. When he was out of sight I said
"Sirius, please tell him to stop! You're his best mate. He'll listen to you…right?" I added seeing the look on Sirius's face.
"Look Lily he loves you with his heart and soul…and another part of his anatomy I shall not name."
"EW, please Sirius you didn't have to add the last part." I said in disgust while standing up. "Plus, bullshit he doesn't love me. He can kiss my arse for all I care."
"He wouldn't mind, and not would I." said Sirius in a small voice whilst checking out my arse.
"STOP!" I said quickly sitting down when I realized what he was doing. "Just make him stop before I do something stupid ok?"
"Like what, say yes?"
