Lily ran back to Hogwarts, in to the main hall and strait in to someone in her fury. She looked up, and there, smiling down at her was the headmaster.
"Oh! I'm sorry Professor Dumbledore!" Lily chirps
"Is something wrong Miss Becker?" He said in the kindest way.
"No" Lily said firmly.
"Well tomorrow is the day before Christmas eve. Make sure you get anything off your chest before Christmas!" Dumbledore says
"Yeah. OK" Lily says than runs all the way up to the common room, shouts the password at the fat lady, runs up the girls stair case, throws herself into bed and cry herself to sleep. Lily woke up around 8:00 that night. She took a refreshing half an hour bath than cautiously went down stairs and read.
-------
Lily had been reading for over an hour curled up in an arm chair by the fire place when James came in to the common room. He had JUST gotten back from Hogsmeade and his clothes were still soaking wet. He went up in to his dorm. Jams dried himself with a towel and changed in to new clothes than he sat on his bed. A minute later he made up his mind and went back down to the common room.
Lily saw James come back down out of the corner of her eye. He had changed and looked more refreshed than before. He came over and sat right next to Lily.
10 minutes went by in silence. 20, 30, 35 than Lily started crying.
"Lily, Lily, don't cry. Your better than me. You can't like me because I don't want to hurt you and I know I will if you do. Lily don't like me. Please.
He was than cut off by Lily running from the room in to her dorm. She flopped down hard on the bed and cried herself to sleep.
---------
The next day went by VERY slowly. Lily and James were both present at breakfast and lunch but did not speak to each other. Evening approached slowly and Lily came down, once more to the common room to read. James entered the room from the dinner Lily decided not to attend to, and sat down once again to once again try to talk to Lily.
"Lily. I've told you. This won't work- it can't be. I don't love you. I'm sorry if you fell differently but you have to get over it."
Lily acted like she wasn't listening but was biting through her lip to stop from crying.
"Lily you can't-" James started again.
"SHUT UP" Lily was suddenly up. "Just be quiet! Its the least you can do!!! You... You-" she cut off in mid tear/sentance and ran through the portrait hole, out of sight.
James sat stunned.
"Hmm she was RATHER dramatic for having nothing be wrong now wasn't she?"
James turned and there, sitting on the boys stair case was professor Dumbledore.
James mouth dropped open "How... How... When?"
"Close your mouth. I was not notified that you were a codfish. Dumbledore said, "I do not need an invisibility cloak to be invisible. No I've been watching you and Miss Becker for days. Any thing YOU would like to tell me?"
James told him all that happened over the last three days and finished off looking at him.
"You should go to her" Dumbledore finally said
"What? But how could I find her? She could be... ANY WHERE!" James said
"You know where she is. Listen to your heart and remember... The most beautiful flowers only grow where there is light." Dumbledore finished his sentence than disappeared.
James sighed than stood up and headed out to find Lily.
James looked around for ages and was about to give up when he found a corridor he had never been down before. When he came to the end of the hall there were no doors but only a mirror.
"What now?" James asked himself out loud.
"Mirror only answers you
When questions in the form of a rhyme is used."
James froze. The mirror just TALKED to him.
"If you don't want the girls life to end
Ask three rhyming questions to find your friend."
James was now alert. The girls life to end? Oh, god.
"OK" James said. "First please... Where can I uh... Find
My friend so I can follow behind?" James said
"Clue one will show you what you do and don't want to see.
To find your friend, when you go outside bring along this mini me.
There, next to James was suddenly a little hand mirror. He put it in his pocket than thought again.
"OK, When I find out where to meet
How should I get there... Should I use my feet?" James asked
"You little oaf. Do you not recall?
The way of the stag is the best way of all."
"OK last, Dumbledore said flowers only grow where there is light. Can you tell me what this means? I don't understand even if I try with all my might."
"When you finally go out side,
Find the centaur with the limp in its stride."
"OK, bye" James than ran as fast as he could threw the castle and found his way outside. When there he quickly found the centaur and went up to it.
It said, "No need to ask. It means that the light must shine for the beautiful flowers to grow. Think of a place where that is."
"But how is that going to help me?" James asked him
"No clue. That's just what it means." The centaur said than rode off.
James was clue less so he took the mirror out of his pocket and said "uh... I need help so please don't yelp."
"Oh, no need to use rhymes with me, what do you need."
"Thank god! OK show me Lily." James said
"You must tell me where she is for me to show you her."
"What?!" James yelled. "OK, fine, let me think. The only place with light must be a clearing... Flowers only grow where there is light... OH that means Lily is in the clearing! Lily, flower I get it. Uh... Uh... Uh... Let me think. OH I KNOW!"
"Yes?" Said the mirror"
"Show me the west side panther pass clearing!"
Suddenly there was a picture on the mirror of Lily in a clearing sitting on a stump crying. James sighed. She wasn't harmed. At least that's what he thought until he saw a panther sneaking up behind her. Than the last sight James saw before he changed in to a stag and darted in to the forest was four HUGE panthers bound on top of Lily, and he thought, "Please oh, loving God."
Hee, Hee nice ending right? Only one more chapter left. I already have it typed up but if I don't get reviews I'm not going to put it on. So if you want to see what happens next REVIEW!!!!!!!! PLEASE!
OK thanks to the peeps who reviewed to the first chapter, slytheringoddess, I am obsessive with your author name!!!! I love Slytherin too.
For a couple of the lines in the story, I stole them from movies other authors and books, thanx to auror5 for the idea of the underground corridor, The broadway play Miss Saigon for the line, it won't work it can't be. Mary Poppins, for the line you are not a codfish. JK Rowling in the first book at the mirror of erised for "I do not need an invisibility cloak to be invisible." (Dumbledore) And last but DEFIANTLY not least, the movie The Tenth Kingdom, which I HIGHLY recommend for, the talking mirror.
Hope you all enjoyed my story so far keep READING!!!!!
