Violet's POV
I was so glad that it was lunch. Lily and I went outside in the warm, summer sunshine, and sat under a large oak tree, next to the shimmering water of the black lake. It was a place that many students came to sit when the weather was nice. I tried to forget about Black, but all I could see was his annoying smirk. Lily was talking about something-probably moaning about James Potter, but her voice fell quiet as I noticed a greasy, black-haired, lanky boy sit far over in the corner. Severus Snape, Lily's ex best friend. I could tell that she missed him immensely, but she was too stubborn to admit it. He pulled out what looked like a rather large textbook and began writing in it. Lily frowned at him, then sighed, looking down at her feet. I bit my lip awkwardly and became very interested in a particular blade of grass, I never was very good at advice and such. I fumbled in my bag, " Chocolate frog?" I asked her. She looked up at me and smiled, taking the frog and nibbling on it. A while later, we were eating way too much chocolate, and laughing about things Gryffindors joke about, for example, how long Lucius Malfoy takes brushing his hair in the mornings.
It wasn't too long before I heard the deep, arrogant voice that I loathed. "OI!" He shouted, "CLARK!" I looked up. One second all I could see was his grinning face, wand held tightly in his hand and aimed at me. The next second I was in the Black lake. Plummeting down, seaweed floating around me. I resurfaced and gasped for breath. I fell onto the edge of the grass, too embarrassed to stand up. I could feel the hot tears leaking from my eyes, I could hear a million people laughing at me, and I could hear my best friend, screaming her head off at Black.
Sirius' POV
I laughed loudly as I blasted her up and into the lake. She was down there for about 10 seconds. A million thoughts ran through my head. What if she drowned? Should I jump in? She then rose to the surface. Her pale face was even more pale than usual, her rose-pink lips had taken on an unhealthy blue colour and her long hair was now straggly and wet, hanging limply. She laid there. Just laid there. She looked such a sight though. I doubled over with laughter, James was snickering beside me. Peter stood in the distance, laughing along like an idiot. Remus was in the library. Clark stood up, looking utterly humiliated. I sniggered at her as she put her head down, and walked inside. Red watched her leave, and decided to continue screaming at me. I didn't care. I didn't feel an ounce of guilt. Not-one-bit.
Violet's POV
I walked inside, and did a quick drying charm on my hair and clothes. "Are you okay?" a quiet voice asked behind me. I swivelled around, and to my disbelief, saw Severus Snape standing there, looking rather uncomfortable. "Um, yeah I'm fine." I said quietly, looking down at the floor. I had never talked to this boy before, but I knew that he had called Lily that horrible word. Mudblood. I also knew that he himself had been frequently bullied by the 'Marauders'. He nodded curtly, and turned on his heel, down to the dungeons, leaving me very bewildered.
I decided that I would go to the library, Remus was almost certainly there, and I found that he was the only boy that I could talk to normally, without being a stuttering freak. My suspicions were proved correct as I saw him sitting at a table on his only, very much involved with his homework. I hesitantly walked over. "Hi," I said, smiling at him. He looked up at me, and the cutest smile lit up on his face "Hi." he replied.
"Mind if I sit here?" I asked a little nervously. He motioned with his hand to sit down. He put down his pencil and sat up properly, angling himself so that he was facing me. We talked for ages. I decided to not mention the incident that had just happened. As I talked to him I found myself not wanting to run away to my room and cry, I just wanted to stay with him. "Oh, wow." Remus said, looking up over at the far wall. "It's half past ten, how did that happen?" My eyes widened. "Oh! We should get back." I exclaimed.
Whilst walking down the corridor I could swear heard someone following us, muttering angrily under their breath. But every time I looked behind, there was just nothing. Before parting to the girl's dorm I gave Remus a quick kiss on the cheek, resulting in him blushing as red as a strawberry. As I climbed the stairs I could swear I felt someone watching me. And it wasn't Remus.
A/N: Sorry this took so long, but I haven't felt really inspired to write anything until today! Hope it's alright and please review! Constructive criticism is awesome.
