James's point of view
What. Did. I. Do. I… I hit Lily! Why would I do that? Is she okay? Of course not you idiot! Great the pessimistic voice in my head had started. You made her cry! I stood up. Coward! You're going to leave her like this? So that Emmeline and Tonks can find you? Oh. Right. Emmeline Vance and Nymphadora Tonks. Not the best people to mess with. Shuddering at the thought of what they might do to me if I left Lily like this, I knelt down and started to talk to her.
"Lily?" nothing. Didn't even move. "Lils? Hello?" Still nothing. Right third time lucky. "Lily im moving back okay? You can go now if you want." at this she stirred a little. Success! "Im going to go back a bit further okay? There's now plenty of room to get out."
Lily's point of view
What am I doing? Why am I getting up? It's easier to just stay down here. Then I won't get hit again by… him. No. I decided. I would stay right here.
However my body was not communicating with my mind. I felt myself uncurling and standing up. Head down I peeked out of my eyelashes to see… him looking at me.
James's point of view
I watched from by the window as she uncurled herself and stood up. She had her head down and with her hair covering her face I couldn't see if she was looking at me or not. Then, taking a deep breath I stepped forward. "Lily flower?" Her head snapped up and I saw the damage that I had done.
There was a bright red hand mark on one of her beautiful pale cheeks. Her nose was bloody; I had hit it with the heel of my hand as I slapped her. And there was a lump on her head where she had fallen to the floor.
Lily's point of view
So…do I run? Will I be quick enough? He is 6 foot something so he's bound to be faster than me. I was still rambling to myself in my head when my decision was made for me.
P-P-he ran towards me with his arms out. This terrified the life out of me. So, I forgot that I was the slowest person ever, and fled through the door. "LILY!" I could hear him running towards me so I pushed myself even faster. Luckily, the common room door opened just as I got to it, so I dashed past a couple of confused first years. I could here him yelling for me in the background, but I carried on running, breath bursting, heart pounding, I made it out of the castle. He was on the steps. I ran to the lake, saw that he was
Gaining on me, and jumped.
