Lily and Prongs
Chapter # 2
Disclaimer : Everything you recognize belongs to the great JK Rowling, yes, the greatest. The
magnificent ( yes, magnificent , hehe ) plot belongs to me. As do Anya, Adair and some other
people I might invent, but haven't yet !
This is the first part of what I believe with be a duo or a trilogy.
Takes place in LILY and JAMES' 6th year !
***
"You did WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!"
***
Sirius reached out and put a hand on the wall. He could feel it shaking.
"What the-"
James walked in, looking very smug about something.
"That, my friends, is how it's done."
"James, do you have something to do with the walls shaking?"
"Yes."
"What is it?"
'Lily having a tantrum."
"Oh...About what, exactly?"
"I'm going out with Anya."
"YOU ARE?" Chorused Sirius and Remus.
"Good on you!" Sirius yelled.
Remus just gurgled. He had, obviously, never told James about his
infatuation with Anya, he had never told anyone. He just supposed it was
obvious enough. He smiled, just the same, however, and congratulated
James. Inside, however, it was a different story .
***
"HOW COULD YOU? ARE YOU TOTALLY OUT OF YOUR MIND ? HOW LONG HAVE
YOU LIKED POTTER ? HOW MUCH HAVE YOU BEEN NOT TELLING ME ? HOW
LONG HAVE YOU BEEN LYING TO ME ? WHEN YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I HATE
THAT ... THAT PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING ? ARGH ! THE ENTIRE
THING MAKES ME SICK ! WHY POTTER ? WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYY ?
***
James grinned as he over heard this. How this amused him to no end. His smile faltered a bit as he
thought about Anya actually taking this not - so - subtle message and dumping him ... He didn't
think his reputation ( or his ego ) would survive two dumpings in the same day.
***
'WE'RE YOU NOT THERE WHEN HE PLAYED ALL THOSE FOUL TRICKS ON ME ?
WERE YOU NOT THERE ? I MEAN, TO ACTUALLY CONTEMPLATE GOING OUT
WITH HIM ! IT IS JUST ... UNTHINKABLE ! REMEMBER THE TIME WHEN ...'
***
Snape smiled lifelessly at Lucius. He had been totally tuned out, but, naturally, he responded to
Lucius' joke. At least, he thought it was a joke. Uh oh ...
"What the bloody hell are you smiling at, Snape ?"
"Uh ..."
"How could the fact that Voldemort has accepted me into his circle possibly be funny ?'
"Um ..."
"When are you going to see him? I'm beginning to think that you are all talk and no action ..."
Snape tuned out again as Lucius rambled on about the greatness of Voldemort. And how
everyone should join. And evil thought crossed Severus' mind. Think of the power ... think of it.
It's what you've always wanted. This Voldemort guy could really get me places ...
***
Lily calmed down. Compartment number 6 finally stopped shaking.
"Are you just about done ?" Asked Adair, cool as you please.
"No, I just wanted to say that-"
"I think you've said quite enough." Said Anya shortly.
"Oh Anya. This has nothing to do with YOU. Don't get mad at me."
"Why would I be mad ?And, on the contrary, I think this has a lot to do with me."
"No, it doesn't. It has everything to do with my hate for Potter."
"You hate him ? Geez, I never knew that." Said Anya very sarcastically. "But look Lily. He's MY
choice. You're not going out with him, so don't complain. Just because you're the most popular
girl in our year, doesn't mean you can rule everything. And certainly not me." And Anya stalked
out. Adair shrugged at Lily, and then went out after Anya. Lily, for the first time at Hogwarts, felt
very much alone.
***
"Oh ... wonder of a wonders ... the walls have stopped shaking !" Exclaimed an ecstatic Sirius.
His bones had begun rattling about 5 minutes ago, and he really didn't enjoy the feeling. But, it
was over !
"Wow, Lily seemed to get over that fast." James commented.
"FAST?! She's been going at it for at least half an hour."
"More." Remus commented.
"Well, that went well." James commented, just as Anya stalked into the compartment number 12,
followed by Adair. Sirius moved over so Adair could sit next to him, and Anya sat between James
and Remus . "This is torture' Remus thought, as he watched Anya grab James' hand. James
smiled down at her.
"What's wrong ?"
"Lily spazzed out about James, Anya took a hissy, and stalked out." Supplied Adair.
"Is Lily all alone ?" Asked Remus
"Ya ... I think she is. Serves her right." Interjected Anya angrily.
"What's up with you, Anya?" Asked Sirius, Angrily. "Lily's one of my best friends. And just as
sure as you obviously didn't want her bad - mouthing James around you, which you had never
minded before, I don't want you bad mouthing Lily."
"Fine. Whoever doesn't want to hear it, leave."
Sirius, Remus and Adair stood up, wand walked out, leaving James and Anya alone.
Anya was shocked, but all James could think about was that this was a perfect make out
opportunity.
***
"...And then they both walked out, and left me all a-lone ..." Lily sobbed on Jeff's shoulder. Lily
was not one to take easily to crying. Jeff smiled down at her. He had Lily, his Lily, the girl with
the attitude, and the hard to get manner, crying - no, sobbing - on his shoulder. He pulled Lily
closer to him, and let her cry on. After about 10 minutes, her lifted her face up, and kissed her
cheek.
"What was that for?' Lily asked, confused.
He didn't answer. Instead he kissed her on the other cheek.
"What -"
But she didn't say anymore. His mouth was over hers. She couldn't help it. She totally melted into
the kiss. He was a good kisser, the best she had ever been with, for sure. And, there was a certain
sort of passion put into the kiss which she had never felt. Like he was pouring his heart out. She
pressed closer against him, and he kissed her more forcefully. She couldn't believe it. This was
totally nuts ! She barely even knew the guy ! She pulled away frantically, not believing what she
was doing. He smiled at her. Jesus ! He was good looking. She had always known that, of course,
but, honestly ! He was HOT ! In a weird sort of way. He didn't have the charisma, the confidence
that made James attractive ... Hold on. Why was she thinking about James ? This guy had blond /
brown hair, blue eyes, dimples ... She smiled at him, climbed higher on his lap, and leaned back in.
She could feel a little open mouth this time ...
***
Sirius poked his head in Compartment number 6. It was empty.
"Where on earth did she go?'
Adair looked worried, which was not very typical of her.
"What's wrong ?"
"Well ..." She said, choosing her words carefully. "Lily was in a state I had never seen her in
before, when we left. Normally she's loud, obviously, but very posed. Very confident. Like James.
Well, when we left, her face was red from screaming, but pale, and pasty almost, from what Anya
had said. She started to shake when I walked out the door."
"Why on earth would you walk out on her ?" Screamed Sirius, angrily. "Some best friend you are!
How could you do that to her ?'
"I DON'T KNOW WHY ! I just did ! Alright ?"
Remus just stood, there, complacently, watching those two fight it out.
Sirius looked angrier that he ever had.
"What's that noise ?"
"Hmm ?' Asked Adair.
"That noise ... I can hear it. It's weird."
Adair listened too.
"O ya ..."
Sirius made his way down the train, putting his ear near every door, listening. He reached
compartment number 9.
"AHA ! We have a winner !"
He pulled back the door compartment, and nearly fell backwards in surprise.
"LILY?!"
***
James was in full swing with Anya, if you know what I mean. All of a sudden, James pulled away,
and walked out the door, without looking back.
***
What on earth was I doing in there ? Thought James. He had never had this problem before. He
didn't like Anya, obviously, he just wanted the benefits. But now, there was a gnawing guilt at the
edge of his mind, telling him NO ! He didn't like the feeling. He worried that he might have
picked up some of Remus' decency.
***
Lily broke apart from Jeff as fast as lightning. She caught Adair and Sirius looking shocked out of
their minds, but slowly, Sirius' expression turned upwards into a grin.
"Lels - Bells!" He called, in his stupid, annoying nick for her. "Who's is THIS ?"
"Uh ... this ... this is ... Jeff. Jeff Taylor."
Sirius extended a hand.
"I don't believe we've met."
Jeff grinned. "Too bad. I've heard a ton about you, of course."
"What ever do you mean?" Said Sirius, in the tone of a British Old Lady taking tea.
"Come on ! Who hasn't heard of the famous Sirius Black? Where's the famous side kick, James
Potter ? I want to meet him to !"
"Sorry, you won't be catching him anywhere around here. Right now, he's making out in a
compartment with his new hubby, but even if he wasn't, Lily's here, so that would make it
impossible for him to come."
'For who to come?" Asked the voice of James.
"You."
"Oh. Alright. Well, I'm here anyway ! Look like you're stuck with me."
"And you're not stuck on Anya. Where is she?"
"In the compartment."
"GOOD MAN!" Roared Sirius.
They did a crazy little slapping on back thing, while everyone else looked on, confused.
"Why does that make him good ?" Asked Jeff, curious.
"Because he doesn't belong with Anya. I know it. He knows it. Hell, we should ALL know it ! He
belongs with my little Lels-Bells here!"
Lily's mouth dropped in surprise. Then she shut it again.
"Excuse me? Potter ? YA RIGHT. That'll be the day. Besides. I already know who I belong
with."
And she leaned over again, and kissed Jeff again.
7 minutes later, James, looking disgusted, pulled them apart.
"Would you go get a room ? I mean, that was disgusting."
"We already had one." Said Lily, grinning, batting her eyelashes up at him.
"Oh, my, God. That is DISGUSTING !" James cried.
"You mean to say. Mr. Player Potter here is a virgin?"
James scowled at her, and walked out of the compartment.
***
'Firs' years over here!' Called the gigantic man. Lily ran over to him( though she was obviously
not a first year ) and lept on him.
"Hagrid !" She said, lovingly. "How was your summer ?"
"It was 'ow you'd expect. 'Ow about you lot ?'
"It was a great summer !"
"Any guys in yer life?" Asked Hagrid, with his eyes twinkling.
Lily blushed. Hagrid nodded.
"Is it James Potter?"
Lily's mouth dropped open. How did he know ... wait ... know what? She didn't want him ... right
? She quickly re - shut it.
"Nope. Not James. Not now , not Ever." She added the last part on when she saw his mouth open
slightly to say something.
***
Dumbledore shuffled the papers around on his desk. He was looking for something. Out of the
blue, he took out a sack, and sprinkled some powder into the fire. He looked considerably
distressed.
"Why, hello Finkle."
"Hello Dumbledore, how are you?"
"Well, I have to be down at the feast in a few seconds. However ... I fear I must tell you
something."
"What is it ?"
"It has gone missing."
"What has ?"
"It ..."
Finkle gasped. He turned bright white.
"Oh my God ..."
