I am completly starving. If only I had the willpower to tear myself away from the magical world of...schoolwork. Most people would be like, oh definitly go for the food; but since I actually have goals that isn't going to be me anytime soon. So I was resigned to an afternoon of doing schoolwork. And although I love schoolwork I would much rather be eating with my friends and peers who are all lucky to be occasionally blessed with my company as wonderful as it is. (sorry I am bored out of my incredibly intelligent mind, I'm not usually this arrogant but as it seems there is nothing else to do, oh well.)
I was pouring over my work on a table in the Griffindor common room while everyone else was down eating dinner (dinner, has a nice ring to it don't you think?) when I suddenly bolted to my feet and ran out of the common room to the Great Hall as fast as I could. I had almost forgotten that tonight was the night when Dumbledore had decided to have ice cream as one of the deserts! I love ice cream, especially chocalate chip cookie dough...sigh, if you pour some chilled coffee over that it is seriously heaven on Earth. Here in the wonderful halls of Hogwarts we are rarely graced with the presence of ice cream, so the arrival of one such thing is very important to one such person as myself. I ran into the Great Hall ignoring the strange stares I got and flung myself into my seat across from my two best friends.
" Oh, hi Lily." That glum person would be one of my best friends, Tamora Anderson, or better known as Tammy. The other one smirked. " I told you she would be here, come on hand over the money." The betting addict was Adian Hawk.
I happen to be Lily Evans, full name Lilianne but if anyone calls me that I will castrate them with a rusty purple spoon unless of course they are female and don't have those body parts, then I will just hex them until judgement day. Yes I have a temper, comes with the red hair and all. I'm 5'6 and have brilliant emerald green eyes that are usually glued to my work, my strange hobbies, and occasionally give a lingering glance at a cute boy, lately that boy has been Jake Silverman from Ravenclaw but we will touch base with him later.
Tammy is in seventh year with Adian and I. She is the calm collected one in our group and most of the time manages to keep Adian and me from attacking anyone, emphasis on the most of the time. Tammy is 5'2 with shoulder length curly brown hair and brown eyes (we sometimes call her brownie to try to get a rise out of her but it rarely works). Not exactly the athletic type she enjoys yoga and long walks on the beach. However she remains trim by eating health food on her streching on flat mats. She's sweet and is with me at the top of our grade, unlike Adian. Tammy is a cute button type of attractive, but she has never been in a serious relationship.
Miss Hawk is pretty much the opposite. At 5'6 (like me) with her black pixie cut hair and steel gray eyes, she feels the need to place bets on everything. She is unafraid to attract attention and is very quick to insult people. However she is incredibly loyal to her friends and likes to protect them ( a little to much sometimes). She has many friends but since she is so intense sometimes only Tammy and I are really close to her, others get a little scared. Something that adds to her scariness is the she is in pretty much top shape (Adian is an avid quidditch player, chaser, and loves running) so she can do some mean ass kickin'. Her grades are good but she rarely recives top marks, she says they aren't that imporant anyway. Adian is the " I will go ballistic on your balls" person out of us three, so most try to avoid angering her. I am more similar to Adian when it comes to personality.
Some call me strange but I say I'm just special (I have a special ability as well but that is another subject to touch base on). Of course if anyone says it to my face I get very disheartened and will scream and rant for hours if I'm in a good mood. If I'm not then I will usually attack them physically(when it comes to fights I sometimes forget about using my wand but I do occasionally remember), and send them to the Hospital Wing. By the by I am the fabulous Head Girl and will dock points from any egotistical, pig headed, frog brained, irksome prick like the one headed in my direction.
"Hello ladies, miss me?"
Enter James Potter.
Most say he is one of the two most gorgeous guys in Hogwarts but in my opinion he is an annoying git. In his, he is God's gift to anyone of the female persuasion, and a wonderful role-model to all males in Hogwarts. At 6'1, he's lean and is in perfect shape. With tousled black hair (he is always running his hand through it to make him look fresh off the pitch), hazel eyes, and a body that good, girls fall all over him and all it does is inflate his ego; which I think is near to impossible considering the size of it all ready. Of course if he wasn't Potter I would agree with the majority on his looks but considering it is, the effect of his looks is completly ruined on me. He's a prick and I hate him like a trip to the dentist to get my teeth pulled.
Potter realized I was alive in our first year at Hogwarts. since then he has tried to make my life miserable by asking me out every ten seconds. Exaggeration of course but sometimes it feels like he does. I have turned him down every time, wouldn't you think he get the picture by now? No, he hasn't and it has been hell.
" So, Evans, want to go out with me?"
"Never Potter, I could never go out with anyone with an ego the size of yours. Tammy, Adian I take my leave."
Grabbing a bowl of ice cream (It had appeard by now) I walked out of the Great Hall and back to the Common Room to do more work.
