Lily stood on top of the astronomy tower.
Why jump? Asked one voice inside her head
'Because no one loves me, especially not James. My life would just be better if I had never even arrived on this planet.' Lily said out loud, sobbing
'Lily. Don't' said a voice that sounded like James's
Lily turned around, out of the darkness walked someone. He looked like James but Lily could tell it wasn't him. He had green eyes, almost exactly like hers and a lightning bolt-shaped scar on his forehead.
'Who, who are you?' asked Lily
'I am Harry, Look Lily you have a very important role to play in the history of magic kind!' Harry said, taking her hand.
His touch was a loving and warm touch yet not the kind that two lovers would exchange. There seemed to be a fondness in his voice that told Lily she was special to him.
'How do I know you?' Lily asked stepping down off the edge of the tower
'I am…someone you will meet in the future. Lily you subconsciously called for a sign that someone loves you, your magic brought me here.' Harry muttered sitting her down on a bench
'Harry! You are from my future! Tell me am I happy there?' asked Lily eagerly 'Do I have lots of friends, a good job and a nice house!'
Harry turned away for a moment, Lily saw him wipe away his tears then he turned around 'Yes Lily, you are very happy.'
Lily smiled 'Thank you Harry, although I don't know quite who you are I am certainly looking forward to meeting you in the future.'
Tears trickled down his face as he hugged Lily 'You really are a brilliant young lady and I'll miss you terribly.'
'Thankyou Harry' Lily murmured as he disappeared in a flash of light
Lily sat there, she felt a warm, fuzzy feeling inside of her and she smiled as she walked back down to the common room. She still didn't know why James had said what he did but she did not feel angry about it.
She walked into the common room and James jumped up from his chair 'Oh Lily! I have been so worried about you, where have you been, I'm so sorry!'
Lily glanced at him; she was not ready to see him yet. She walked back out of the corridor and down to Dumbledore's office. She forgot completely about the gargoyle statue and walked straight through it, up the long flight of winding stairs and knocked on the door.
'Come in Miss Evans' said Dumbledore
Lily opened the door and walked in 'Dumbledore I…I…Oh my gosh I walked straight through your gargoyle!'
Dumbledore laughed 'Come in and sit down Miss Evans, I have much to talk to you about.'
Lily sat down and looked at Dumbledore
'Well Miss Evans, you have a very powerful magic and it seems to get out of control when you are feeling strong emotions.' Said Dumbledore
'Um…Dumbledore? When I was up on the Astronomy tower a boy visited me…he's from the future…he said his name was Harry.' Lily said
Dumbledore sat down with a start 'I didn't think that…my gosh Lily…you are much more powerful than we imagined.'
Lily looked at him with a patient expression on her face
'I think it would be best if you went back to your dorm and got some rest.' Dumbledore murmured, walking over to his cabinet and taking out a large, stone bowl.
Lily left; she walked back to the common room and sat in front of the fire. She felt someone sit beside her; she looked over expecting to see James but Remus was sitting there.
'What's wrong Moony?' asked Lily
'It's about James.' He whispered
Lily immediately sat up and looked at him intently 'What? What's wrong?'
'Gosh Lily, he really does like you. He just…well…freaks out and is mean to you when he doesn't mean to be' Remus explained
'Remus don't try and stick up for that great prat, look I'm tired I'll see you in the morning.' Lily murmured and crept up the stairs to bed.
Lily came downstairs the next morning and looked around, the common room was nice and deserted. Just the way she liked it.
She pointed her wand at the table and her journal appeared, she wrote down her strange conversation with the boy, what happened when she saw Dumbledore and her feelings about James.
The portrait hole opened and Lily snapped the book shut and it disappeared. In walked James.
He saw Lily and raced over to her.
'God Lily, I am so sorry! I didn't mean to be harsh to you!' James stammered
'No it's cool, I understand.' Lily whispered
'You do?' James asked
'Yeah I understand that I am just some stupid bitch who you really couldn't give a fuck about!' Lily said as tears rolled from her eyes
'No Lily! That isn't true!' James said taking her hand
'Don't touch me!' Lily screamed
Suddenly everything breakable in the room exploded
'Just…Just…leave me alone.' Lily sobbed
'Lily what is up with you today?' asked James
'I'll tell you what is up with me James… I love you. That's what, and you really couldn't give a shit how I feel coz you hate me!' Lily sobbed and then ran from the room as the portrait hole burst open.
James sunk into the seat where she had been sitting 'But I love you too Lily.' He murmured
