Just a little idea that popped into my head. Rated for mild swearing. :)


"Lily! Lily, wait!" A male voice called desperately.

"It's too late," the girl, Lily Evans, coldly said over her shoulder.

"But Lily, just listen!" Severus Snape shouted.

"Listen?" Lily said incredulously, hair flying as she span around to face the boy. "Why should I listen to you? After what you called me, Snape, there should be nothing to say. Our friendship is over. You chose your path - with the Death Eaters - and I chose mine."

Severus looked like he was ready to cry. "But Lily, please! I didn't mean to call you that, it just-"

"Slipped out?" Lily cut in, both her words and expression frosty. "I have no pity."

And she strode away, leaving Severus sliding down the wall of the moonlit corridor with his head in his hands.

Lily walked briskly towards the portrait of the Fat Lady, who tutted but let her in after Lily muttered the password - 'fortis'. The redhead, after a brief survey of the empty room, sat in an armchair in front of the dwindling fire.

"Hey, Evans..." An arrogant voice said. That voice; the one she hated since the age of 11; the one she would gladly never hear again.

Turning around, Lily glared at James Potter, who was sprawled on a sofa behind her.

"What do you want, Potter?" Lily sneered, injecting as much venom as possible into her voice.

"Well, since you won't have Snivels around you anymore, I was just wondering if you wanted to go out with me?" James winked.

Lily stood up, furious. "You wondering if I wanted to go out with you, Potter? No, of course I don't! You just lost me by best friend, you arrogant, big-headed, pathetic excuse of a human being!"

With that, Lily ran up to the girls' dormitories, leaving a stunned James in the Common Room.
