Secrets and Hurt
James and Lily entered the room to find Sirius smirking at James, James smiled back at him. Lily walked up to the girl's room and left the boys to talk as she entered the room she did not shut the door properly.
"So have you asked her out yet James?" Sirius asked.
"No not yet." James sat down on one of the chairs followed by Sirius.
"Well you better get a move on. So if you ask her out by after the after noon's classes I will give you fifty galleons." Sirius looked at the pile of books on the table. "Has Lily done all her reports and home work already?" James nodded his answer. "Wow."
"What if she says no?" James looked away from the books and back to his friend.
"You will never know my friend until you try." James thought about this and he had to think that for once Sirius was actually being serious about something.
"Yes I suppose so." James got up and walked up to the boy's room.
Classes have started and James and Lily are sitting at the back of the room. Lily is helping him with is reports. After that class James and Lily go down to the lake and sit there. James is just watching the wind blow the hair out of Lily's face.
"Lily I… I… I" James froze when Lily turned her head slowly to face him.
"Yes James?" Lily smiled at him.
"Umm never mind." James looked away.
"James you can tell me I won't bit you."
James mumbled to him self. "But you can bit me, I want you to"
"What was that I missed it?" Lily leaned towards him.
"IloveyouLily" James forced it out so fast that Lily just stared at him.
"Pardon" She asked.
James took a deep berth and repeated. "I love you Lily." He looked away from her gaze.
"James" he looked back at her. "I love you to. But what I want to know is are you ever going to ask me out?" Lily moved closer to him.
"Okay I did not see that coming at all. Lily will you go out with me?" James had a look of worry on his face as Lily thought for a bit.
"Yes James I will." James was about to admit defeat when he realised what she said and he kissed her. A stick broke behind them they turned around but no one was there. "James." Lily said in distress he turned her head and saw her eyes were gold.
"Nice work James here is the fifty galleons I owe you for doing so." Sirius was under the invisibility cloak.
Lilly looked from looking at Sirius back to James. James touched her she flinched. Her eyes still gold. "Don't touch me James." Lily said as she got up James got up as well. Lilly walked over to Sirius and stared at him. "You ruined it I will definitely hex you now Black."
"James help me" Sirius pleaded." Her eyes still unchanged she was about to walk away.
"No you screwed it up this time for me and now I agree with her hexing you." James frowned at his friend.
"Shut up or I will hex you as well because you made a bet with him I don't see why I sound not just hex you both now and be done with it." Just then she spun around to look at the trees behind them. Remus walked out from there and towards Lily. "Remus is that you?" Lily asked because with her eyes being gold she could not see as well but she could see Sirius fine.
"Yes it is I Lily. Are you alright?" Remus moved forward towards her.
"No im not alright." she said as tears rolled down her checks.
"Come on lets go for a walk I think I know why your eyes turn gold when some one approaches you under an invisibility cloak." Remus walked closed to Lily and Put his hand on her shoulder. She turned around and looked at him her eyes changed back.
"Ok I will come but don't you think for one minute that those two are coming." She said as she pointed at James and Sirius. Lily bent down and picked up the bag of galleons and looked at James. "So this is what im worth to you James Potter?"
"Lily it is not like that. I… I…." James was lost for words.
"I do not care James. You have hurt me." Lily spun around after throwing the bag at James' chest.
"Lily don't you turn away from me." James growled at her.
Lily stopped but did not look back at him he walked over to her and grabbed her arm and turned her to face him. "LET GO OF ME." She screamed. He let go and she slapped him and she started to run and James ran after her but before her could catch her she had made a thick fog fall behind her.
"Im sorry Lily" James whispered he then turned around to find Sirius right behind him. "Sirius I swear if you do not make it right I will turn you into a toad for ever." James walked off.
"James" Remus called after him.
James turned around. "What Remus?" James had now stopped to hear what was about to be told to him.
"Go after her you moron. She does not know what she is doing out here on her own she needs some one to talk to." Remus walked over to his friend.
"Well go after her then." James started walking on when Remus kicked his arse.
James spun around to find him self alone. "No she needs you not me or Sirius." A voice whispered through the wind.
James walked through the fog to find that it was just a thick wall and on the other side it was clear. He began walking in the direction that Lily ran of in. He stopped for a little bit and then he remembered the Marauders Map he pulled it out to find Lily sure enough he found her in a clearing. She was not moving or anything. James ran to the clearing.
"Lily. Lily where are you?" He called out.
"Im here James behind you" Lily's soft voice came as a surprise to him.
James spun around. "Lily im so sorry I never meant for that I never meant to hurt you." James waited for her to reply.
"But you did." She whispered. James wrapped his arms around her.
"Im sorry Lily Im sorry." He whispered back to her. "Come on we can't stay out here to much longer."
"Why?" Lily asked a little confused.
"What is the time?" James asked.
"It is six o-clock." Lily answered.
"It is the full moon Lily you have to get out of here." James said but before she could run they heard howling coming closer. "You can't run you have to hide."
"James don't leave me please." Lily pleaded with him.
"I have to. I love you." He gave her a kiss then turned around.
James called his broom stick and he put Lily on it and made the broom go high above the trees. He changed into his stag form and waited there and sure enough out came running a werewolf into the clearing. Lily screamed as the werewolf picked up James and threw him against a tree. The werewolf looked up at her and started to jump and then started to climb the tree next to him. A black dog cam running into the clearing and bit the werewolf on his back leg and ran as fast as he could. James did not move from where he fell. Lilly made the broom fly down to him she jumped of.
"James slowly changed back as he became conscious. " Lily get out of here." He said.
"No I won't leave you." Then she spun around as she heard several sticks crack behind her. The werewolf had come back to get James.
"LILLY GET ON THE BROOM AND GET UP INTO THE SKY AGAIN." James yelled as he changed into a stag once again. The werewolf grabbed him and threw him against the tree once again and then bit his leg.
"NOOOOOO." Lily screamed but she knew she could not do any thing for him.
The sun started to come up and the werewolf stopped and then fell to the ground.
"Remus" Lily whispered to her self. She flew down and jumped of the broom and ran to James' side he had now changed back.
"Lily is he alright." Remus whispered to her.
"He will be fine Remus." Lily stood up and turned around to face him. "Why did you not tell me." She looked at him.
"Because I was scared of what you would think Lily" Remus looked at the ground Lily walked over to him and gave him a kiss on his check.
"Remus I would think of you no different." Lily smiled as she gave him a hug.
"Lily." A voice croaked behind her.
"James" She ran over to him and helped him sit up.
"Lily are you alright?" He asked.
She wrapped her arms around him. "Yes im fine. Thank you for caring about me." She gave him a kiss and helped him get to his feet.
Sirius came running into the clearing and stopped when he saw Lily wrapped in James' arms.
"Way to go James you got your girl after all." Sirius smiled as Lily laughed.
"Yes he has" Lily kissed James' check and then they all headed back up to the castle.
"Lily make sure you stay inside tomorrow night." Remus said with a half smile.
"Will do Remus" Lily smiled at him and he smiled back because he now new she would not think of him any different just not to go out on a date with during the three night of the new moon.
