Chapter 9: Hugs All Around…Then Some Snow In My Face
I was walking past the Great Hall when Potter burst out of nowhere. I screamed, jumped backwards, tripped and fell on my butt. I could just feel my face turning red.
Potter laughed and helped me up. "I wanted to talk to you before break. I thought about it and I want you to play on the team for the spring. Practice starts March 1st Miss Lead Chaser," and he left.
I must have bee n there for a while, because when someone brushed past me, it was ten minutes after Potter left. Stupid trances.
I rushed outside to the carriage that Cory's parents sent for her. Cory was talking to the driver. "Cory!"
She looked up and smiled at me. "Finally! Where have you been?! I leave in five minutes!" he parents made her come home in some stupid carriage because they couldn't stand to have her around some muggleborns. Cory couldn't stand her parents. And they couldn't stand me.
"I'm here, Cory," I gave her a hug. "I have some good news! Potter wants me to play in the spring! Isn't that great?!"
"My gosh! That's awesome!" Cory smothered me in a bear hug. A big one…and I could barely breathe.
"Cory. Can't breathe!" I breathlessly said.
"Oh, sorry," she stepped back. "I wish I could take you home for the holidays. But…you know…"she looked embarrassed.
"Cory, really, I know and I'm fine with it. I don't mind that your parents hate me," I reassured her. The driver whispered in Cory's ear. She nodded in response.
"I have to go," she and I hugged. "I'll send you your present and you can send me mine. I already said good bye to Remus."
"Ooo," I was teasing her.
She blushed. "Bye Lily," she hugged me quickly then stepped into the carriage and drove off.
"Bye Cory," I waved and watched the carriage until I couldn't see it anymore. I started to walk along the train tracks in front of the train. It wouldn't leave for another half hour.
All of a sudden, there was a sharp pain at the back of my head and neck accompanied by a loud thunk. Proves how hollow my head it!
I fell forward into the snowy tracks. Cold filled my face. Someone's voice shouted, "Go home, mudblood! You don't belong here!" I tried to get up but my arms failed and I went unconscious.
