Lily woke up with a pillow being chucked at her face. She was terrible for getting up early, her mother usally had to drag her by the feet out of the bed. Then she heard the vioce of Jaq.
" Hey, princess beauty. Get up we have our exam in an hour and we need food."
Jaq was always the one the wake Lily up. She was the only one who could wake Lily up. Doracus and Marlene tried but after there first few attempts in first year, well the memory still haunts them. Never under estimate what Lily will do if you wake her in the morning. Jaq was the only one not scared of Lily.
Lily hauled herself out of the bed and put on her uniform. She had a realy bad dream last night. Severus was screaming at her this is all your fault over and over again, while a dieing James Potter layed in a heep on the floor. She hated dreaming, you never know what your gonna get.
Lily was to tired to participate in the group's conversation as they headed down the stairs. It was proberly the same old thing, who was going out with who, whats your latest crush and proberly some question about what they were going to do for the summer. Marlene was going on about her plans for weeks. She's gonna throw a massive party for her birthday and the whole year is invited. Lily was looking foward to it because 1 its a party and 2, she was dreading the summer.
Peter was waiting for them in the comman room. He told us that he had just been to seen James and he is doing better. Madam Pomfrey made Remus and Sirius head down to the hall, so James was by himself. He told them that he still can't realy sit up straight but other wise he is ok. Lily was relieved, she felt as if it was her fault Potter got hurt, which was silly because Severus cast the spell, but that didn't make her sleep any better.
When they entered the freat hall Peter scuttered over to Remus and Sirius, who were eating breakfast. They girls followed. Lily sat the furthest away, not wanting to talk to anybody. She poured herself some juice, put her wand in her bag and read over her transfiguration notes.
" Hey Sirius, how's James?" asked Marlene squeezing his arm. He looked at her.
"He's ok, gutted that he's missing the exam though."
Lily couldn't help herself and snorted. All eyes turned to her.
"Something you want to share with the group Lily;" he said coldly. " Something funny in your transfiguration notes."
" No, it's nothing, i just... I taught i would ever hear the day where James Potter would want to go to an exam." She looked at the girls for support but they were suddenly very interest in picking at thier cuticles or playing with the hem of their skirts.
" Why wouldn't he want to do this exam? Because you think he's just some dumb oaf, who can do nothing but attack people." He was getting viscous now.
" Sirius." warned Remus.
"Shut up Moony. Well Lily."
Lily was taken for words which never happens before. She didn't expect Sirius to react like this.
" I..I i didnt mean anything by it Sirius i just-"
" Just what, like you even care. Still hanging around with the asswhole who used untested spells on another human being."
" I do to care, and i told Sever-"
Sirius banged his fist on the table making the cutlery jump and peter to spill his pumkin juice on his robes. Some people were looking at them now
" Of course you would talk to him. You didn't even go and see the guy your best mate tried to kill, what does that say about you? You decided to have a chat with old greasy head instead. Did you give him a slap on the wrist or did you snogged him ? Honestly i see it both ways. Old Snivillus would love it wouldn't he."
"Sirius!" cried Remus knowing he had gone to far.
Lily was staring at him, a mix between dumbfounded and pissed off. Everyone stared in silence between the two hot headed people sitting before them. Lily stared him in the eyes, her anger was fogging her head, and something in her popped.
Then everyone looked down. They knife that Peter was using to butter his scone was now in the bench.
inbetween Sirius's legs ,a few centimeters away from what would classify him a man. They all looked back at Lily,who now had on a rigid face, and she looked Sirious dead in the eyes. Everyone else stared at her open mouthed. She stayed there for a few seconds. Complete silence.
Then with out saying a word, she picked up her things and walked out of the great hall. Severus saw her leaving amd tried to talk to her. He grabbed her arm, which was a terrible mistake. Lily muttered 'petrificus totalus', and he was now temporarly paralised on the floor. Everyone laughed but no one tried to help him. Until a teacher finaly noticed what was going on uncursed him. He got up brushed himself of and sat back down at the slytherin table.
The marauders and the girls weren't paying fully attention though. They were still looking at the knife wedged into to bench. Sirius pulled the knife out and stared at it.
" How the hell did she do that? She didnt have a wand." said Sirius quietly. Marelene hit him in the head.
" Your an idiot, why the hell would you say that to her she didn't do anything."
"I think were missing the fact here that she;" He started standing up " ALMOST CHOPPED OF my b-"
Remus and Marlene grabbed him.
" Do you want to tell the hole school? Shut up." snapped Marlene.
"You have to say sorry to her." Sirius was about to agrue, when Jaq spoke up.
" Your apologising weather you mean or not Sirius, she did nothing to you and you were completly out of line. We get that you are upset about James but you shouldn't take it out on her." Sirius looked at Remus for support but he just shrugged his shoulders
"Hey i agree with the girls you were horrible to her."
Sirius spent the rest of breakfast with his face in his bowl not talking to anyone. Remus decided to break the tension.
" Soo Marlene, tell us about ur party."
