A/N: Hee hee hee hee. I think this may be one of the funniest chapters in this fic... At least I think so... Well, that's me- I think some things are funny and I end up being the ONLY ONE that does. But whatever.
Never Going to Happen
By: Jey4eva
Chapter 7: Doin' Some Thinking
Remus's POV:
"She called me James," James whispered.
"Ha ha," Sirius said.
"She slapped me."
"Ha ha."
"She called me James."
"Ha ha."
"She slapped me."
"Ha ha."
"She called me James."
"Ha ha."
"She slapped-"
"WE GOT IT!" I burst out, exasperated. I looked at Peter then changed my mind, "Well, I got it." I shook my head.
"She slapped me," James said.
"Ha ha," Sirius repeated.
(A/N: I guess that's where the funny part ends.)
I rolled my eyes and threw my hands up in the air.
We were in our dorm room, sitting on our beds. For past 15 minutes... Sirius had been showing us his wide vocabulary. And James was still in shock by what had happened and kept repeating the same 2 lines. It was getting irritating.
"Moony!" James exclaimed. "Did you hear her? She called me JAMES!"
"Yeah, I heard her," I muttered.
James turned to Peter, "Did YOU see her? She slapped me! ME!"
Peter nodded vaguely, looking confused.
James tilted his head to the side. His eyes got that glazed look.
"I called her a bitch," he whispered.
"You like her," Sirius said in a sing-song voice.
I groaned and put a pillow over my head.
Lily's POV:
I sniffled. "That bastard," I said into my pillow. "How dare he," I said sniffling again.
"Lily! Let us IN! Its our dorm room too!" Kendra said from outside the door. I had locked the door and put a bunch of other locks on it, too.
I ignored her.
"Alohomora!"
Bang!
I looked up. Kendra, Ashley, and Emily were standing at the door way. Emily's wand was in her hand.
"Why didn't I think of that?" Kendra asked, slapping her own face.
"Go AWAY!" I whined.
"No," Kendra said, defiantly.
"Ugh!" I exclaimed and pulled the curtains around my bed.
"I assume you want to be left alone?" Kendra asked.
"YES!" I exclaimed.
The curtains were pushed aside, "Why?" Kendra asked, brow furrowing.
"Don't you want to talk about it?" Ashley asked.
I shook my head.
"Aw! C'mon Lily! Everyone heard you and James," Kendra said.
When I burst out crying she looked at me sheepishly.
"I wasn't supposed to say that, was I?" She said.
Ashley and Emily glared at her, then turned back to me.
"If it makes you feel any better... I think your handprint is going to leave a mark on James for awhile," Emily said, grinning.
"It makes me feel worse!" I exclaimed.
"Why?" Ashley asked.
I shurgged, "I don't know."
"I know," Kendra said excitedly. "You LIKE him."
"I DO NOT!" I shouted.
"You do to," she replied.
"He's annoying. He's a stupid, slimy git," I said, shaking my head.
"Well then he's YOUR stupid slimy git," Kendra said, crossing her arms. "I suppose now, I have to find a different date to go to the Halloween Ball with me, eh?"
"NO!" I exclaimed.
Kendra giggled, "You can deny it all you want, Lily. I KNOW you like him."
"I don't, and I wish you would just DROP the bloody damn subject," I said hotly. My face was starting to heat up. Must have been... the heat?
"You're blushing," Kendra teased.
"Kendra, shut up!" Ashley hissed.
"You should have seen him, Lil'," Kendra said, ignoring her. "After you ran off, he touched his face like he was never going to wash it off AGAIN!"
I groaned, "I really don't care Kendra. He probably was thinking it was going to leave a scar and that he'll never have another date again."
Kendra snorted, "Right."
Emily smiled, "I agree with Kendra. He looked like he was going to burst into tears when you ran off."
"I don't care! I'm NOT listening!" I shouted over them, covering my ears. "La la la la la."
Kendra rolled her eyes.
I dropped my hands, "Besides, he had no right to say those things to me..." It suddenly occured to me that he may be right. "Am I really a selfish spoiled brat?" I lowered my voice to barely a whisper, "Am I a bitch?" I asked tearfully.
"NO! Of course NOT!" They exclaimed.
"Well, if James said it, then maybe I really am," I said.
They shook their heads furiously, "No Lily. No way."
"James didn't mean it. He was probably too angry to realize what he was saying," Emily said.
"He looked like he meant EVERY SINGLE WORD he said," I stated. "And you know what? Maybe he's right..." I said.
James's POV:
I was in hell. I just couldn't shake off the fact that Lily had slapped me. That I had yelled things I didn't really mean. And most of all... I couldn't BELIEVE that she had called me James... My REAL name. Not Potter... She had been calling me Potter ever since she found out what my name was.
I was going CRAZY!
Sirius was another reason that was driving me nuts.
I glared at him.
"James you're an idiot," he stated.
"No kidding," I said.
"You made Lily upset," he stated.
"I KNOW!" I snapped.
"She probably hates you," he addded.
"Don't you think I know that?" I snapped again. I massaged my temples. "I'm getting a headache," I muttered.
Remus had given up on us and was sleeping peacefully on his bed. Peter had busied himself with homework, ever so often glancing at us and frowning.
"Ha ha," Sirius said tonelessly. I guess he was starting to get bored.
I rolled my eyes.
"I'm going to bed," Sirius announced. He took his hand and with a flick of it put out the candles.
"Sirius!" Peter shouted.
"What is it?" Sirius asked.
I rolled my eyes again and lit the candles.
"Thank you," Peter said.
Sirius yawned and jumped into his bed. He put his night cap on and went to sleep.
I shook my head. I didn't understand him. Sirius never changed out of his robes. Sometimes he'd wear the same robes twice in a row.
"I'm going to bed, too," Peter said.
I merely nodded. I changed into Quidditch pajamas and put out the candles. I lay there, staring up to the ceiling lost in thought. Lily was DEFINETELY not going ot get over what I said in one day... She would SURELY be in a sour mood tomorrow.
"I better apologize," I muttered. Then frowned, surprised at myself. I had never apologized to a girl in my life... I shook my head. Ever since I met Lily, she's been making me do crazy things.
Lily's POV:
James is dead, I thought numbly as I lay wide awake. Kendra, Ashley, and Emily had gone to bed... But not me. No, I was wide awake and alert.
I couldn't help the thoughts of James being right getting the better of me... I mean, REALLY! What if he was right? I mean, I'll admit, I'm no angelic angel...
I sighed and turned onto my side and stared at the wall.
"I should change," I said softly. Maybe I could try to be a bit nicer to people, I thought. Especially James...
I sighed and closed my eyes.
It was amazing how much effect James's hurtful words were having on me, I thought sleepily. I'd think more about it tomorrow...
A/N: Yeah, that's about it. There's not really much point to this chapter. Its just showing the aftermath of James's outburst... I promise that the next chapter will be more intersting... I hope anyway...
