Chapter Nine
Lily's Recovery
*
*
*
PREVIOUSLY: Sirius was running as fast as he possibly could. He had to find James. He couldn't let Brianna do that to his best friend. And he couldn't let Lily be hurt like that.
At least if she woke up, no when, when she woke up, he thought to himself, she'll have James by her side.
He heard a disturbing noise when he was walking by a small broom closet, and realized that was where the desperate little snob and the poor James must be, so he opened it.
~*~*
"James!" Sirius screamed when he saw James inside the broom closet with Brianna.
"Brianna we all know what you did! You desperate little slut! You can make sure you'll get in trouble for this one!" Sirius shouted angrily at her.
Brianna turned pale. "W-what?" she said, "I, I didn't do anything illegal!" Sirius glared at her.
"Oh shut up you little liar you can't give a love potion to someone," he said, and then grabbed James' arm, pulling him away from Brianna.
"Sirius! What are you doing? I wanna be alone with Brianna, right now if you don't mind," James said, looking totally out of it and giving Brianna a cheesy grin.
"Sorry, buddy, but in a few hours when you are back to normal, you are gonna thank me. And Kristin will get in trouble like she deserves," Sirius said, and grabbed Kristin's arm when she tried to make a run for it.
"Wait!" said James! "I don't want my beautiful girl friend to get in trouble! Wow, she's just so beautiful," he said.
Sirius slapped him over the head to try and knock some sense into him, but it didn't work.
"But, but you uh, you don't have any proof that I gave James a love potion!" Brianna said defensively.
Sirius realized this, but then saw a bottle with pink liquid sticking out of Brianna's pocket.
"Hey!" Sirius shouted grabbing the bottle out of her pocket. "Now I do, sorry babe," he said, waving the potion in front of her.
Brianna looked ready to kill Sirius. "I, I can't get in trouble! I just can't! I won't!"
"Well," said Sirius giving her a mock smile, "Let's go see what the head master says, shall we," he said.
Then he took James and Brianna's arms and guiding them to the statue that lead up to Professor Dumbledore's office.
"Drooble's Best Blowing Gum," Sirius said, and the state began to rise up, giving Sirius, James, and Brianna some stairs to climb.
Sirius always knew the password to Dumbledore's office since he was up there at least once a day getting in trouble.
"Ah, Mr. Black, Mr. Potter, Ms. Wallace," said Dumbledore, glancing up at them, "please, have a seat," so they sat down.
"Now, what can I do for you three today?" he asked them, smiling.
"Um Professor Dumbledore, I discovered that Brianna was using a love potion on James to get him to like her." Sirius said. "I have this bottle of love potion as truth that I found in Brianna's pocket."
Professor Dumbledore glanced over at James and Brianna and noticed that James was mindlessly staring at Brianna.
He realized that was Sirius was saying must be true. "Is this true, Ms. Wallace?" he asked Brianna, however not smiling at her.
"Well, well, yes!" Brianna began to cry. "I just knew secretly that deep down James really did love me, but he was wasting his time with that stupid red head!"
"Her name is Lily!" Sirius screamed. "And I'm not in the mood for you to be treating her like that because she isn't in a very good state!" he said sadly.
Dumbledore looked over at Sirius sympathetically, but James didn't seem to care. Dumbledore knew he would be terribly upset once the effects of the potion were taken off him though.
"I just figured instead of letting James waste his time with Lily, I might as well help him out and get him to spend his time with me," Brianna finished.
"Ms. Wallace," said Dumbledore in a calm voice, "I cannot believe you would do this. Luckily Mr. Black realized what you did. I have no choice but to give you detention every day for one month. Please go and see Professor McGonnagall so she can arrange it."
Brianna looked very angry. She stormed out of the room, her face very red with rage. James looked sad to see her leave.
"Now, Mr. Black, I would like to thank you for helping your friend out like this. And also thank you for not taking matters into your own hands. 50 points to Gryffendor."
"Oh well, Kristin realized what must have happened, not me," said Sirius. "Well then," said Dumbledore, "another 50 in honor of Ms. Kristin Alvina."
Then Dumbledore looked at James.
"Mr. Potter I am now going to take the effects of the love potion off of you and you will be back to normal in a few minutes," he said.
"What?" James asked looking confused. "I didn't take any love potion!"
"Relax, Mr. Potter," Dumbledore said. And then, he shouted, "Undonio!" and James was knocked out.
"Why is he knocked out?" Sirius asked curiously.
"Well when he wakes back up, which is in about 30 seconds, the potion will no longer have any affect on him," stated Dumbledore.
"Oh good," said Sirius happily, and right on cue, James lifted his head up, and looked around the room, confused.
"Um where am I?" Then he saw Sirius and Dumbledore. "Sirius? Professor? What the h-"
"Mr. Potter, I am sorry to say that you were given a love potion from Brianna Wallace, and for the past 24 hours, you have been in love with her. I am glad to say that your friends realized what she did and came to your aid."
"Oh my gosh I can't believe that b-"
"You may feel a little dizzy right now," said Dumbledore interrupting him, "but you will be back to normal by tomorrow. You can be off now."
So Sirius led James out of the office and down into the hall. "Oh my gosh Sirius! How could she do that? I am gonna kill her!" James said angrily.
"Well, Dumbledore gave her detention for a month!" Sirius stated happily. "Cool!" said James.
Then something hit James. "Oh my gosh! What about Lily? Does she think I'm in love with Brianna? Oh no!" James said, hitting his forehead with his hand.
Sirius' face suddenly fell. "James, there's something I forgot to tell you. A few days ago Lily and I were walking to class and she became um very sick."
James paled. "W-what?" he whispered. Sirius looked really upset and James had noticed that his face had been paler than usual.
"She collapsed onto the floor, and I tried to help her up, but she went unconscious. I picked her up and took her to the hospital wing but she's still not waking up. We're all really worried about her," Sirius said sadly.
"How-why? Is she in really bad condition." James felt sick upon hearing this news. He wanted to just collapse on the floor.
"I want to see her!" James told Sirius. "Well okay b-" Sirius said, but James interrupted him.
"NO! Sirius I want to see Lily, right now! Please!" he said sadly, so Sirius led James to the hospital wing.
They stopped in front of the hospital wing doors. "Now, James, when you go in there, Lily won't be awake. She's really weak right now," Sirius told him.
"I know, I just want to see her, that's all," James said quietly. Sirius pushed open the doors.
James saw Remus, Audrey, and Kristin gathered in front of a bed where Lily must have been.
"Lily!" James said, and ran over to her bed. When he saw her lying in that bed he wanted to scream.
She looked so weak and hopeless, and he wasn't there for her when she needed him most. It's all my fault, James thought to himself.
"James!" Audrey jumped up. "Are you okay? What happened? Where's Brianna? W- " but Sirius interrupted her.
"Guys, look, let's go outside. I'll explain everything to you. Let's just let James have some time with Lily," he said.
They all got up and then Sirius led them out of the hospital wing, leaving James alone with Lily.
James collapsed into the chair. He grabbed Lily's hand. She looked so weak and ill. Oh this is all my fault, James thought to himself. I should have been there for her!
James just sat in that chair, holding Lily's hand, and praying that she would be alright.
When Sirius, Remus, Kristin, and Audrey came back about an hour later, they found James asleep in the chair holding Lily's hand.
Kristin let a small tear slide down her cheek. How could something like this happen to someone so innocent? Was what Kristin was thinking to herself.
Sirius wanted to cry just as much, but he held it in. He wanted to be strong for Lily, and for James.
Audrey covered James in a blanket, and then sat down on a couch right by the bed that Professor McGonnagall had transfigured up for them all.
She was really upset. Madame Pomfrey had told them truthfully that she didn't really know what was wrong with Lily and that she was seriously sick.
Remus could somehow sense what Audrey was feeling. She was so emotionally strong, he thought to himself.
He sat down right next to her, letting her rest her head on his shoulder and she tried to hold in her tears.
Sirius and Kristin decided to get up and go get some hot chocolate for all of them, and left the wing hand in hand.
Audrey had quieted down and Remus had realized she must have fallen asleep. He put his jacket over her shoulders when he noticed her shivering.
Then he looked over at Lily and James. They were wonderful people and Remus couldn't understand what they did to deserve what they got.
Tears started welling up in his eyes, and one slide down his cheek. He wiped it away quickly.
He was so tired after just finishing his transformations that he fell asleep next to Audrey.
Kristin and Sirius soon came back into the hospital wing, but when they saw Remus and Audrey also asleep, but their hot chocolates on the table, which had many flowers on it that people had given to Lily when they found out about her.
Kristin put a spell on the hot chocolates so that they would stay warm. Then she sat down on the couch opposite of Remus and Kristin next to Sirius.
"Sirius! I can't take this! I'm so worried about Lily! And poor James! I can't believe Brianna did that to him! He must think it's all his fault. Sirius I can't take this!"
She started to cry and Sirius put his arm around her. "I know, I know Kristin. But Lily's strong! I know she's gonna pull through this. Oh I have plenty of other shirts so feel free to get this one wet if you want."
Kristin couldn't help but laugh. Sirius could cheer her up no matter how upset she was.
Madame Pomfrey then entered the room. "Oh you poor dears! It's so sweet of you to stay here like this for Lily." (A/N-this is Madame Pomfrey's mother- that is why she acts different than the Madame Pomfrey we know)
"Can one of you two help me with Lily?" Madame Pomfrey said. Sirius got up. "I need you to hold her up while I give her this potion," Madame Pomfrey said.
"Okay," Sirius said, "do you know what's wrong? Can you cure Lily?" Sirius asked hopefully.
Seeing that look on Sirius' face made Madame Pomfrey want to cry. "I don't know, dear, I'm so sorry," she said, and then gave the potion to Lily.
"Alright all done," she said, so she left the room to give them time alone.
Sirius sat back down. Kristin fell asleep with her head on his shoulder, and finally at about 1 am, Sirius fell asleep, too.
The next day: Remus was the first to wake up as the sun shone up into his eyes. Yes, it was Saturday, he thought to himself. Audrey then lifted her head up, too.
She started stretching her arms. "What time is it?" she asked Remus.
"Oh it's about 8:30. Do you want to go on a walk with me?" Remus asked her. She is so beautiful Remus was thinking to himself.
I am so in love with Remus, Audrey was thinking. "Sure," she answered and smiled at him.
They both weren't sure why, but as they stood up, their hands joined together, and they both got butterflies in their stomachs.
They then left the hospital wing to take a walk around the grounds.
Kristin woke up at about 9:00, along with Sirius, and they found a note from Remus that said he and Audrey went for a walk.
Then Sirius' stomach growled. Kristin laughed. "Do you wanna go get breakfast?" she asked him, smiling.
"Yes please," Sirius said, smiling weakly, so they both of them left to go have breakfast together.
James woke up about ten minutes after that. Whoa, where am I? Oh right the hospital wing. Dang I must have fallen asleep here last night.
He saw the notes his friends had left him and was glad to have some more time with Lily alone.
"Lily, I know you can't hear me, but I wanted to tell you, I can't live without you. You are the most wonderful person I know. I really hope you're okay because Lily because I, I love you. I would never love anyone else the way I love you," James said.
Suddenly, Lily began to stir. She was moving her head back and forth and groaning.
James looked at her. Oh my god, he thought. Is she waking up?
And then, Lily miraculously opened her eyes, and James felt like he was soaring in the sky above the world.
"Lily!" James screamed! He jumped up and gave her a hug. He was so thrilled that Lily was okay and felt as if he could almost cry. Lily looked really confused.
She tried to sit up, but she couldn't, she was too weak. "James what's going on? Where am I?" Lily said, looking totally confused.
James helped her sit up and then wrapped her in a long hug. "Lily I am so glad you're alright!" James said, and a small tear came out of his eyes, but he wiped it away.
"James what happened?" Lily asked him. "James I feel really weak," she said.
"Let me explain everything," James said, and he told her all about what happened, how Sirius took carried her to the hospital wing, how Remus, Kristin, and Audrey heard and immediately rushed here, how Brianna pored the potion into his drink, and how Sirius helped him get away from Brianna.
Lily's mouth was open after hearing the story. "James all I remember is feeling really weak and collapsing on the floor and then hearing Sirius sound really worried in the distance," she said.
And then she started to cry. "Lily what's wrong," James asked her, concerned.
"It's just that I thought you hated me when you started going out with Brianna. I thought you didn't love me anymore," Lily cried.
"Lily! That would never ever happen! I am in love with you and I always will be! For the rest of my life. All I remember is waking up in Professor Dumbledore's office and hearing Sirius tell me what happened. When I found out you were sick I felt like I was going to faint," James said to her.
"James I love you, too," Lily said, "I'm just so happy that you really do love me."
James leaned in and gave Lily a kiss, and suddenly he felt warmth spreading throughout his whole body.
James suddenly felt okay again. He no longer felt weak and sick. It was Lily that helped him through everything, and when she was sick, he felt sicker then he ever felt in his life time.
It was Lily's kiss that made him alright again, that gave him strength.
When James Potter kissed other girls, he felt nothing. When he kissed Lily Evans, he felt warmth spread throughout his body, and felt as though everything was okay.
Lily was different from other girls. James was in love with Lily, and he couldn't live without her.
When James leaned in and kissed Lily, the weakness went away for that brief moment. The headaches disappeared, the sickness went away.
When Lily was with other boys, she never felt anything. It different with James Potter. There was passion behind each one of their kisses, and it gave her strength to pull through that she never knew she had. She knew she would be okay with James at her side. Yep, I have decided it, Lily thought to herself, I am in love with James Potter.
When the kiss ended, Lily began to feel weak again, but she knew she'd be okay again soon.
James Potter and Lily Evans knew that if they had each other, everything would be okay.

Alright guys, that's the end of the chapter, and I think it's my best one yet. I really hope you enjoyed it. I worked really hard on it and put a lot of thought into it. Please please review for me, cuz I only have like 28 reviews. If I get some good reviews, I'll put up chapter ten tomorrow (Saturday) or Sunday! So please, please review for me! Thanks!
