On to the story…

Chapter 2

Within the first week of school, Sirius and James had managed to get detentions.

It was an accident, honestly," Sirius said with a fake look of innocence on his face as he sat in the Gryffindor common room Friday afternoon playing James in Wizard Chess.

"Yeah, raw eggs just happened to fly onto Snape's head while he was eating breakfast," Lily laughed.

"So you'll tell McGonagall?" James said. Maria Blankenship, another first year Gryffindor, hit James with a pillow that she conjured up.

"She was being sarcastic. That means that she wasn't serious," Maria said slowly so that James would understand. Lily stuck her tongue out at James, then climbed through the portrait hole.

"Where are you going?" James called to her.

"To find Sukie!" Lily called back.

"Get us some food, will ya?" Sirius said, rubbing his stomach.

"We just finished lunch!" Maria laughed.

"Maria," Lily said, "all they think about is their stomachs. I feel sorry for the girls they marry!" Lily ran down the corridor before James and Sirius could get to her. She remembered Sukie telling her to met her in the Library, so she headed that way. Unfortunately, she met Severus Snape, a Slytherin second year, by the door.

"Move, Snape," she said, her voice cold.

"Why, Mudblood?" Snape sneered. That hit Lily hard. She had heard James and Sirius talk about how bad it was to call someone that. She lunged forward and tackled Snape. His head hit the stone floor.

"Don't EVER call me that again, or you will have to carried to the Hospital Wing!" Lily threatened. The Library door opened and Sukie along with Alexandria Halliburton came rushing out.

"Lily! Get off of him!" Sukie whispered urgently. Lily realized how it looked, and jumped off of him.

"Miss Evans? Is there a problem here?" came a voice, and Lily's blood ran cold. She turned slowly to face Professor Lewis, the Head of Slytherin and Potions Master.

"Uh," was all Lily could say.

"She attacked me, sir," Snape said in his greasy voice, rubbing his head where he hit it on the floor.

"Is that so?" Professor Lewis asked rhetorically, "well then, Miss Evans, Mr Snape, in my office now." Lily walked quietly behind her least favorite professor. Like McGonagall, Professor Lewis was fair, and didn't show favoritism. Minutes later she sat nervously in his office.

"Explain, Miss Evans," Professor Lewis said.

"I was walking down to the Library to uh study with one of my friends when I met Sn- Severus in the hallway. I asked him to move, and he called me a 'Mudblood.' Well, that offended me so I um, told him to call me that." Lily half told the truth.

"Is this the truth?" Professor Lewis asked Severus.

"Part of it, Professor. She demanded that I move and then accused me of calling her Mudblood then she tackled me."

"It sounds as if you are both at fault. You two will be receiving detentions. You may leave now. Oh, and ten points from both Gryffindor and Slytherin. Don't do this again." Lily nodded and hurried out of the room. She went up to her common room and sat down.

"Hey, Lily, some girl named Sukie told me to tell you to met her by the great hall," Jessica Marshal, a first year Gryffindor with brown stringy hair and brown eyes said.

"Thanks, Jessica!" Lily said as she ran to find Sukie.

"Where have you been?" Sukie asked as Lily walked up to her.

"With Snape," she pulled a face, "and Professor Lewis in his office getting detentions." Lily said as she tried to sound casual.

"How, erm, nice, I guess…" Sukie said.

The next day Lily received an owl informing her that she would be having her detention that night. James looked over her shoulder at the letter.

"Goody! We have the same detention!" he said half sarcastically.

"At least it isn't Snape," Lily muttered. She finished eating her breakfast and left, thinking about her detention that night.

That night, Lily walked down to met Filch with James.

"What'd you get a detention for?" James asked.

"Fighting with Snape," Lily said. James slung his arm across her shoulders.

"That's my girl," he said happily.

"Is this your detention for the eggs on Snape?" Lily asked.

"No, this one's for erm, accidentally dropping all my books on Flitwick…" James said, scrunching up his face.

"How did you do that?" Lily laughed.

"Uh, he's short?" Sirius Black stood in the shadows watching his best friend getting along with Lily Evans. He stifled a laugh and went to find Rachel Thomas, a Ravenclaw girl whom he was meeting in a couple of minutes.

Filtch wasn't there when they arrived, so Lily and James sat down on the floor.

"So why weren't you upset about your sister not talking to you?" James asked, trying to make conversation.

"I don't like Petunia too much. We just don't get along. My youngest sister, Daisy, and I get along real well. The week I left for school she was at my Grandma's…" a blush came onto Lily's face as she realized how much she had told James. Luckily, and unluckily, for both Lily and James, Filtch came at that moment.

"Having fun are we? Well, if I had my way…" he went on saying something about hanging students by their ankles from the dungeon celing, but Lily wasn't listening to him. She was thinking about Daisy and Petunia and her parents. For the first time she realized how much she missed them.

As they came up to the Trophy Room, Lily pushed all thoughts out of her head and concentrated on the present. He handed Lily and James the polish and rags then sat in a corner to watch them with a smug smirk on his face. Lily crossed over to the opposite side of the room that James was working on, and started to polish a shield. It was for Special Services to the School to Tom Riddle. She stifled a yawn and continued to work. Finally, hours later, when Filtch had woken up he sent them back up to their dorms.

Lily and James walked in silence back to the Gryffindor Commonroom together. Both were too tired to talk. The fire was dying and no one was in the room. Lily and James parted ways and went to their separate dorms. Morning came to quickly the next day for Lily.
