A/N: Hey guys! I know, two chapters in 1 night? CRAZY! I want to thank you guys for all of the alerts I got and the reviews I got! I love you guys3 Oh and by the way, Hogwarts students no longer need to wear robes.

Once we are back from the Burrow I feel the sense of relief I feel every time we get away from the rest of our family. I begin to walk up to my room when my mum stops me.

"Lily, what is wrong? You look like you've been crying."

"It's nothing mum, I fell down as me and Hugo were walking back from the trees. I had tripped and hit my elbow on a rock. I'm fine though." I said in a rather convincing tone.

"Lily, I know what you told Gran today. She told me." Mum looked at me and I saw that she does care about me but that doesn't make the hurt from what the others said go away.

"Oh."

"Lily, your father and I love you with all of our hearts and believe me; your dad loves to spoil his girls. How about tomorrow me you and dad all go out for ice cream. Just us. Albus can stay home and James is going to be looking for apartments with Fred tomorrow."

"That sounds like a good idea. I would love that." I smiled at my mum.

"Good, oh and by the way I found this at the Burrow. You may not want to leave it lying around." Mum held out my new camera and I took it and felt a bit of relief.

"Thanks mum. Goodnight." I hugged her and went up to my bed and fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.

The next morning I was awoken by my cat Annie walking across my back like she always does. As she stepped off my back I sat up and pulled her into my arms.

"Good morning baby girl. How are you this morning?" I said to her while scratching behind her ears. Annie began to purr as I continued to scratch. After a few minutes I put Annie down and walked to the bathroom and took a shower. I wouldn't be leaving until one-ish most likely and it was only eight, so I pulled on my short workout shorts and a red sports bra and braided my hair down my back. I walked down the stairs thinking I would be alone this early in the morning. I was wrong. As I walked into the kitchen to make myself some toast I noticed a blonde figure sitting at my kitchen table. I stopped dead in my tracks. Jared Finnegan was sitting at my kitchen table and I was standing there in short shorts and a sports bra. Could this day get any worse? Jared was handsome but I barely every talked to him. He was Al's friend and I was the quiet little sister that hid in her room hidden from everyone else. I have to admit there was always a small part of me that had a crush on him. He wasn't anything like what I've heard his father was like. He was even in Gryffindor with me and all of the others.

"Um, good morning." I said a bit awkwardly and walked over to the fridge. I felt his eyes scanning me head to toe as I walked away from him.

"Morning Lily." Jared replied in a smooth voice.

"When did you get here?" I asked quietly.

"Just a few minutes ago. Al was too tired to actually get the door so he told me where your spare key was." Classic Al. I pulled out a glass and poured myself a cup of pumpkin juice and went to join Scorpius at the table. We sat in silence for a while. "So Lily, how are your holidays?"

"Oh, um, fine I guess." I mumbled.

"Isn't your birthday coming up?" He asked. I was shocked her remembered my birthday.

"Yes, it's next week." I said meekly.

"Ah, the 26th right?" I saw this mysterious glint cover his eyes.

"Yeah. How did you remember?" I asked I sounded a little ruder than I meant to be.

"Al mentioned it a few days ago when we were talking." He leaned farther across the table.

"I haven't seen any owls flying here in the past few days." I said nervously.

"We haven't been owling. There is this thing called a cell phone. Do you have one?" He knew I did have one. But I hardly every used it.

"Yes I do have one. I just hardly ever use it."

"Why? Don't you text your friends from school?"

"You know I don't have friends."

"Oh, yeah. I forgot sorry." He looked at his hands. There was a small beeping sound and then Scorpius had pulled his phone out. He suddenly looked very red and then left.

"That was odd." I said to myself. I walked into the living room and turned on to tellie to some talk show where they were talking to some muggle author about a book she had written that was about a bunch of kids that were sent into an arena to kill each other. It sounded interesting. I sat there alone for maybe an hour when I heard someone coming down the stairs.

"Morning little sis." Al yelled when he threw himself down next to me on the couch and Jared sat in the arm chair next the couch.

"Morning. Here's the remote do what you want." I got up and left after that. I don't know why but I was kind of mad at Jared for what he said about forgetting I didn't have friends.

I was on my bed staring at the ceiling when all of the memories of the night before came rushing back. I remembered what Lucy and Dom had yelled at me and what I had heard them say. I remembered how they always showed off how they looked. Short skirts and boob revealing shirts. They've been trying to hurt me. What if I just started to accept their jokes about me and then kill them with kindness? I always tried to make them like me. I don't care what they think anymore. I will wear what I want to wear, and be who I want to be. I will no longer be the silent little girl that was stuck in the background forgotten by her family. I got off my bed and ran to my dresser. I pulled out every revealing top and every too short shorts and skirts and threw them into a bag. By the time I was done almost my entire dresser was empty. I ran to my closet and pulled out every tight shirt and every skanky dress. Enough with what they think I should wear and who I should be, today I am going shopping and I will pick out what I want.

Suddenly I stopped. What had caused this out burst from me? I felt a bit awkward when Jared was staring at me when we were in the kitchen. He wouldn't have pulled that if I had still been in my pajamas. If it wasn't for his creepy staring then I don't think I would be getting rid of these clothes. But I had to. I needed to be free of my cousins' hold on me. It is time I stop pleasing everyone and start worrying about me. I called my mum into my room.

"What is it Lily?" She asked. When she saw the huge pile.

"I want to get rid of everything in this pile." I said completely serious.

"Lily, tell me what this is about first."

"Fine." I told her all about what happened with Lucy, Dom and Victoire last night. "I am sick of being their little puppet and these clothes are not me. They are them. I need to be myself."

"Those girls have never been good. I feel bad for Victoire's child." I had never heard my mother say anything like this about anyone in our family. "And Lily, I am so sorry they said that to you. Today instead of having your dad come along we will go shopping just the two of us. You will need new school clothes anyways." Mum smiled and kissed my head. I finished up with emptying my closet when James showed up with two large garbage bags.

"Here, mum told me to help you pack this stuff up." James started putting things into the bag he was holding.

"Thanks." I said and we put all of the devil clothes as I like to call them into the bag. When we finished he helped me lug them down the stairs. After that I ran back to my room and put on a remaining pair of jeans and a t-shirt I had gotten at a muggle concert I had gone to with Hugo last summer for my birthday with a pair of worn out converse that were my favorite shoes of all time.

"Ready dear?" my mum asked and we left and started our shopping trip.

A/N: I hope you guys like this! I thought that it would be kind of weird that the wizarding world wouldn't have another form of communicating than through owl, so I added in cell phones. I hope that's alright with you guys! I may post another chapter tonight so be ready Once again thanks for the reviews I love you guys!
