Housing Project
AN: Depression ahead!
~Lily's POV~
Arianna is asleep on a chair. "Kid," her father slurs. I start to cry as he reaches up to strike her. I jump in front of him, scooping up Aria as I go. "What the heck are you doing?" squeals his wife, Narcissa, as Arianna awakens and I stuff her arms into her little pink cloak. "Wherewe goin'?" Arianna asks as I shrug into my own navy blue cloak. "To James' house," I reply. `Stupid housing project,' I think as I scoop Aria onto my Shooting Star. I climb on, grasping Arianna's little body. I kick off just as I hear Lucius coming out of the front door. He's too drunk to figure out to get his own broomstick, so he just yells swear words at me. Arianna starts to cry, and I talk to her as we complete our journey.
I ring the doorbell, and a sleepy looking James answers it.
"Lily," he says, "oh, god. Arianna." He looks positively in shock as I tell him the horror story. "Lily," he says, while he dials the Muggle telephone, "Lily, you have to go back to the houses. Get Aria and your things. We're engaged anyway, so you can stay here." I mutely nod as I pick the sleeping two-year-old up off the chesterfield. Arianna stirs, but doesn't awaken.
~Next morning~
"Was he drunk?" James asks after a cup of coffee.
"Yes," I reply, "he called Arianna `kid'." Arianna starts to cry from the spare room, and James rushes up to get her. A grinning Arianna, dressed in a purple robe with butterflies on it, and James come down the stairs. "Lily!" Arianna squeals. "Jamsie!" she yells, gesturing towards James. "Mm-hm," I say, "Aria, how bout James, Lily and Aria go out?" I ask. "Okay." James helps Arianna into her cloak, and I get dressed. We step out and head for the Knight Bus stop. I stick out my wand arm and we all get in, just like a family.
~Narcissa's POV~
They took my precious baby. Sure, I never bothered to name her, and sure, I put her through cocaine withdrawal, and sure, prissy Lily named her, but I still don't know where they went. I need another drink to think this through on...
~Lucius' POV~
Sure, I hit the kid a couple times, and sure she was a mistake, but that daft little Lily Evans didn't need to take her away. I'm going to have a fit when Lily comes back to the Housing Project. I'm going to need to have a few more drinks to think this through with...
~Arianna's POV~
My Mummy and Daddy hurt me a lot. I wish I could talk some more so I could tell Lily. Lily and James bought me a new dolly. And Lily named her McKenzie. I love Lily and James.
~James' POV~
Lily showed up with Arianna Malfoy just now. She has the sweetest personality, Aria does. Lily and Arianna are showing me just how to be a family. We are going to pick up Arianna's clothes now.
~Lily's POV~
I step of the Knight Bus at the housing project. I need Arianna's things. Narcissa opens the door, and now Lucius has said a curse, and pain is flooding my body, I'm loosing my senses...
~James' POV~
"Lily! Lily!" I yell. Lily's lying on the ground, the effects of Crucio, no doubt. I need to get her to St. Mungo's...
AN: I plan on doing a sequel if I get 1 review.
