4th year at Hogwarts
"Go away, Potter," I muttered, turning my face away from the Marauders. Out of the corner of my eye, I could see him motioning for his friends to go away. "I told you to go away!" I screeched, and sprang to my feet. "Evans, wait!" he called, but I was already in the Gryffindor common room and running up the stairs.
I flopped back on my bed and sighed. The only thing I could remember were those intense hazel eyes staring at me with worry.
3 years later
"Potter? POTTER GOT HEAD BOY?" I screamed. "Yeah... Sorry, Lily," stammered Remus Lupin. I don't really understand why Remus didn't get Head Boy. Potter had way too many detentions. But then again, he did have unbelievably good grades...
"Look, Lily, I just want to be friends."
What?
I think I'm going insane.
"Lily?" Potter's voice jarred my brain back to reality.
"It's Evans to you," I muttered, and pushed past him, aiming for the Great Hall. Sadly, it didn't work very well. James was strong and muscled from all the Quidditch playing, so he easily blocked me.
"No. Lily, listen. I'll stop bothering you. I just want your friendship. I mean, we aregoing to be sharing a dorm for the rest of the year," he pleaded with me. I sighed and made the mistake of looking into his hazel eyes. It seemed like they were staring right through me and into my soul. I felt vulnerable, and I didn't like it.
I ended up giving in. "Fine," I huffed. "But one sign of you bothering me, and we're done. Got it?" I said firmly.
James nodded his head like an obedient puppy. I had to stifle a giggle at the expression on his face. It was a mix of hopeful and happy all at the same time. It was actually really humorous to see him look like that.
"Fine, then. See you around... James," I said, and flashed him a grin as I walked away.
James's face lit up like a lightbulb. "Later... Lily," he said, and sighed happily.
I walked off to Potions, actually feeling happy.
