A/N- Hi everybody. This story has kind of been on hold for a while, so I thought I'd continue. Right. On with it!
Lily's days-Part 8
When Lily woke up the next morning, she heard all about the incident. And she lauhged out loud. It was so funny! Them all waking up, really grumpy, and mad. But then she realized that the boys would be after her now. So she decided that she'd better make up before they killed her.
She walked up to them during breakfast, and said, "Um, guys? I have something to tell you."
Sirius said, "What did you do?"
Lily said, "Well, I just thought it would be funny, and I didn't know that everyone would be so ticked off, and..."
James said, "What are you talking about? Ticked off? Huh?"
Lily said, "Well, um, you see, it was me who did that trick on you this morning. And I am so sorry."
Remus said, "Well, it was kind of a rude awakening, but I forgive you, anyway."
And the rest agreed with him.
Then Lily said, " I haven't opened my presents yet, would anyone like to join me?"
And it turned out that the rest hadn't either, so they all went upstairs, and started ripping at the paper to their presents.
Lily had gotten some very pretty robes from her parents, and some candy from her friends, and a letter from her sister, saying how much she hated her, and some pranks from James, Sirius, and Remus.
Remus had gotten a lot of the same, but a sweater from his mother.
Sirius had gotten lots of pranks and stuff from his friends, and a big prank book from his parents, and some candy.
James, on the other hand, got a lot of cool stuff. He got a chess set, and a Gobstones set, and some candy, and then a really cool thing. He inherited the cool thing from his father. It had been passed down through their family for centuries. And now it belonged to him. It was an Invisibility Cloak.
"Holy crap!" Sirius said when he saw it. And the others said things that were quite the same.
"This'll be good for some major prank playing," said Sirius. "I can't wait to start!"
And they did, that very night. They snuck into the kitchens, where they got a lot of food. (a fifth year had found out the password, and they'd overheard him talking about it with his friends)
They had a notebook, where they kept track of the places they had been, so as not to miss anything. They visited everything around the castle. They went to classrooms, and towers, and many, many places that no one had ever heard of.
One night, a few months after James had recieved the Invisibility Cloak, James and Lily had snuck out together to go somewhere new. Sirius had wanted to go, but he had homework. They went to this old, deserted classroom, and when they walked in, they saw a very strange sight. It was a (A/N-I really wanted to end here, but I am sure everyone is sick of my cliffhangers. So, I'll continue.) mirror.
They walked in front of it. James suddenly saw himself as Head Boy, and with a Quidditch trophy on his shoulder, and the House Cup in his hand. "Wow," he said.
Lily said, "Hey, what do you see?"
He told her. Then, she walked in front of it herself, and she saw herself with a little baby. But there was something different about her. She was grown up! So that baby must be hers, then. It looked exactly like James, but with her eyes. "Ahh!" she screamed."I have a kid, and I think it's ours!"
James said, "WHAT?"
Lily explained what she'd seen. Then James calmed down a little. But not very much. "So, if this thing tells the future, then, we get married! And have kids! Ahhh!" he said.
Lily said angrily,"Well, at least you win the house cup, and the Quidditch trophy, and you're head boy! That must make up for having to marry me!" And she went and sat down in a corner, looking mad.
James went over to her and said, "Well, wait. Let's see what kind of mirror it is first. It could be lying. Or something."
He walked over to it. He looked at what it said in the inscription at the top. It said: eil a ton si sihT .erutuf eht sllet tI .snoitciderp fo rorrim eht ot emocleW (A/N-HA! I bet you thought it was the Mirror of Erised!) "Weird," he said.
Then Lily walked back over. She examined the top too, then she suddenly snapped her fingers. "It is backwards. Read it!"
He mumbled, and started reading. Then he went, "OK, so we DO get married and have kids! See, I told you it was freaky!"
Lily said, "Well, we'll tell them all about this when we get back. They can get a good look at it themselves. But for now, let's go back and go to sleep. I'm very tired."
James said, "OK. Let's go."
A/N-I thought this would be a good place to stop. So I will. OK? OK. Review if you really care!
