Guys, Just a warning, this chapter sees things getting a little bit more
grown up, but still think its a Pg13 story. Next chapter may not be
suitable for young kids.
Quidditch practise and Buboetubers
A few years passed, with very little change. We won the Quidditch cup in the fourth and fifth years, and Lily and I found out that for every hour we had spent helping Professor Sambora in the greenhouses, he had been adding 10 points to Slytherin, which we were really grateful for. We couldn't work it out exactly, but we had earned the house somewhere in the region of 250 points, and we won the house cup by miles both years.
Lily and Sev were still together, and so were Ed and I. James seemed to have moved on, though we still saw the occasional jealous look shoot Sev's way, and Remus came and apologised to me in the Christmas Term of the 5th year for any of his behaviour. All I had seen was the occasional glance my way, but he was really nice about it. I admit, I never told Lily or Sev, but I was beginning to soften towards the Marauders, they weren't as bad as we had thought.
One day, about half way through the first Term of our 6th year, Lily came to find me after Quidditch. I assumed she was looking for Severus.
"Hey Lil, he's staying on tonight with the other chasers to practise their formations, but I'll wait with you if you like, I... Are you Alright?"
When I looked, she was really pale, and she looked like she had been crying. I had never known her look so rough.
"No, I...I mean yeah, I'm fine, but I wanted to talk to you...meet me in Greenhouse B in five minutes?"
"Umm, Yeah, I've just got to get changed. Lil, are you sure you're Ok? You look like you've seen a ghost!"
"Well, I saw Peeves on the way up, but I managed to dodge him!" She chuckled at this, but it was a nervous chuckle, just trying to ease the tension. "Just meet me, Ok? I really need to talk to you."
"I'll be there in two minutes, I promise. Uh, do you want me to Bring Severus?"
Her eyes widened and she shook her head violently.
"No! No, don't tell him I was here, just come on your own? Make sure he doesn't follow you, I don't want him there."
As she left, I rushed to get changed. I couldn't think for the life of me what was wrong. She and Severus were fine as far as I knew, and I couldn't believe that they had broken up or anything like that. But at the same time, I couldn't see any other reason why she would not want him to know what was wrong so badly. I just couldn't work it out. By the time I stopped thinking, I was almost at the Greenhouse. I made my way in, and she hadn't got there yet. there was a note from Professor Sambora, asking us to pot two Buboetubers, and that we would find the earmuffs in the top drawer of his desk. I did it while I waited, and as I put the earmuffs back and began to scribble a note to him, Lily appeared from around the corner, and this time, she was crying.
