Chapter 4 - Lily

Lily, Harry's best friend was smart and artistic. She had long, light brown hair which was sometimes tied up with a ribbon. She had sparkling sky blue eyes and freckles across her nose. When Harry ran to her house as soon as they got back from the tower he expected her to need some convincing.

To his great surprise however he was wrong.

"I knew that tower ment something!" she said excitedly.

"You knew?" exclaimed Harry, "You knew about the tower."

"Oh yes" she said casually, "All the little girls used to play around the tower when we were little." she continued as Harry's surprise became greater, "It started to get really overgrown so nobody went there anymore."

"That's strange" said Harry, "It wasn't overgrown when we found it, It wasn't that hard to find after."

The next day after school Harry and Lily were going back into the tower. At two o'clock they were crashing through the forrest towards the clearing. Lily's face broke into a smile as soon as she entered the clearing.

"I haven't been here since i was five years old, nine years!" she said, "It always seemed much taller."

"Remember that when your climbing it." Harry laughed as he climed the tree.

In a few minutes the rope was hooked on the roof and and had swung down infront of Lily. She reached for it but Harry grabbed it first.

"Mabey i should go first Lil." he said cautiously.

"As i seem to remember you telling me Harry, The last time you were up in that tower she kicked you out of the window so mabey i should try."

"Fine" he said grumpily.

Lily reached up grabbed the rope. A few minutes later she was level with the window. Harry watched as Lily easily swung through the window. As he recalled, it had been a lot harder to climb up that rope than she had made it look. He started to pull himself up the rope. He kept looking up waiting to see Lily being thrown from the window but nothing.

After a while of climbing he finally clambered through the window.

"You!" yelled a girl's voice.

Harry stood up strait to see the beautiful girl running towards him. Harry yelled and ran as far away from the window as he could. She followed raising he fist. A small giggle from behind him made him turn around. The dark haired girl in the mirror was looking at him. Harry tried not to look into her eyes. That wasn't hard because he was soon being chased again.

"Wait Rose!" said a voice he knew very well.

The girl turned and looked at Lily who was sitting on an old desk on the other side of the room.

"Is this Harry?" she asked, calming down now.

"Yeah that's him, and don't worry he's harmless" she said.

The girl lowered he fist and walked over to a her bed and sat on the end. Lily got up and walked over to her and Harry followed.

"Rose?" he asked.

"Yes" said Rose, "It's short for Rosalina, Lily thought of it." she smiled

"Did she" Harry smiled back through gritted teeth.

"Yeah i like that name" said Lily.

"You were up here for five minutes!" said Harry.

Rosalina crossed he arms and stood up.

"Would you like to explain to me why you tried to stab me the other day?" she said angrily.

"I was hoping you could answer that" said Harry, "Explain her" Harry pointed to the girl smiling out of the mirror at them.

"Rapunzel?" Rosalina said confused, "She's my sister and she lives in the mirror because mother Gothel said she disappointed her. I can't think why, she's lovely."

"That's a matter of opinion" said Harry, looking at Rapunzel out of the corner of his eye.

Rosalina looked from Harry to Rapunzel.

"And what do you mean by that?" she said.

"When i last came up here, you were asleep" Harry started

"So you just thought you'd come poking around my tower." she mumbled.

"Anyway i saw Rapunzel in the mirror and i looked into her eyes and suddenly a couldn't control myself and found myself standing over you with that knife. As soon as i broke eye contact with her i could move again and then you woke up." he finished.

Rosalina looked at him and then at Lily who nodded.

"Please go, I'll think about what you said but i still can't even think why you would say this about my sister." she said, "Bye Lily"

"Bye Rose" said Lily jumping onto the rope and climbing down. Harry followed but looked back at Rosalina.

"Stay away from that mirror and-"

"Bye Harry!" she said firmly.
