Lily looked down the hall, and turned back to James.
"We should finish this," she said. James said nothing, just a cold stare came from him as he cleaned the trophies. ***I wonder what's wrong with him.*** "Is something the matter?" Lily asked.
"You should of told her," James aid through clenched teeth.
"I meant to…" Lily started.
"Just finish the stupid detention assignment so we can both get out of here," James said while still staring coldly at the trophies. Lily felt as if her heart would give out at any time right about now. Lily picked up a cloth and started to polish. Soon after she checked her watch, and time was up. She threw down the cloth and walked slowly to her dorm, suppressing tears. As soon as she got far away from James, seeing that he hadn't got up yet, she broke out in tears. She went up against the wall and slid down, crying her heart out.
After a while Lily got up and approached the portrait, wiping her tears with her sleeve. She took a deep breath and told the password, passing into the common room. Walking slowly, and looking ahead as she trudged up to her dormitory, tons of thoughts were going through her mind. ***How did I get myself into this? Now even James hates me.***
Lily slowly creaked open the dormitory door, to see Marie on her bed looking up in plain fury.
"Marie…" Lily said slowly.
"Lily, just don't…" Marie said, closing her curtains around her. Lily crawled into her bed, closed the curtains around her, and cried herself to sleep.
Lily awoke to the sunlight pouring through the crack in the curtains. All the events that occurred last night came flooding back into her memory. ***Oh no!*** Lily sighed and got ready for one lonely of a day.
Throughout the day, her classes were pretty much with Marie sitting with their other friends, and James completely ignoring her. She felt utterly alone, but Lily Evans of course had a plan. At lunch, instead of going to lunch, she headed up to her dormitory. In her dormitory, she closed the box full of chocolate frogs, James favorite, and addressed the letter. She smiled and put her hand across the message that said, You know who it's from, my dear, Meet me at 8:00 on the third floor. She laughed a bit and took a deep breath as the next class was nearing. ***Another lonely class to suffice, ah what fun.*** The day went by just like that, lonely and miserable. Lily hoped her plan would work, and if it didn't she didn't know what she would do. ***Probably jump into the lake and live with the Octopus. I suppose it won't be that bad…***
It was nearing the end of the day, and Lily was casually walking up to the Gryfindor(A/N: sorry if I spelt that wrong! No time to check spelling) tower, and walked through the portrait hole. She walked up the stairway, approaching the door, and taking a deep breath. She opened the door, and say Marie looking at her with tears in her eyes. Lily felt tears flowing down her eyes too, as she opened her mouth to speak.
"Marie…." Lily said slowly.
"Lily, don't say anything, it's all my fault. I should be happy for you. It's just…." Marie trailed off.
"I know, Marie. I'm so sorry. I am lucky to have such a great friend. I should've stayed away. I'll never talk or kiss James again, if that's what you want…" Lily said, looking down at the floor.
"No, no. You don't have to. If you're happy, I'm happy," Marie said through an over flow of tears.
"Aw, you're the best Marie!" Lily said, jumping on her bed and giving her a huge bear hug. Marie held back a little.
"But, did I ruin it for you two?" Marie sobbed.
"Of course not, if anyone ruined it, it was me. I just hope he'll forgive me."
"If he's smart he will!" Marie said with a smile.
Marie, surprisingly helped Lily get ready to see James. Marie was enchanting Lily's tresses, while Lily was gabbing away on how sorry she was. Finally after a while of pampering, Lily was ready to go confront James.
"Good Luck, Lily," Marie said with a smile.
"Thanks!" and with that Lily headed for the third floor. She traveled through the usual obstacles of going through the portrait hole and up those ungodly stairs. She had finally made it to the third floor, at 8:02. She was panting because she was afraid she might miss James. She looked around frantically for James, and saw him no where. She was about to cry, but suddenly James appeared, as his invisibility cloak fell from him. He stood there staring at her for a moment.
"I know I should've…."Lily trailed off, as James approached her. Lily attempted to try again, "I…" but got cut off.
"Shhh…." James said, while putting his finger up to his lips. *** What's this feeling? It's different….different than I've ever felt….*** They both looked deeply into each others eyes, and slowly met to a kiss. The kiss lasted until Lily broke it, fearing she might die if she sustained it any longer. They both stood apart, still looking intently into each others eyes.
"Lily…." James started, "I forgive you." Lily smiled, and saw James smile back. "We better get going, before we get another detention," James said softly.
"Ok." James picked up his invisibility cloak, and put it over her too. Lily smiled as she felt James arm around her waist. They slowly made it down all three staircases, and were standing at the portrait, and James had put his cloak into one of his 'secret places.' He told her all about them. He had them for special purposes, such as getting caught, and for keeping anybody but him and his friends from seeing it. She looked intently into his eyes again, and they met for one more kiss, until they said the password, and walked through the portrait. Lily was grasping his hand, and they didn't care if anyone was down there, but it didn't matter cause everyone had gone to bed. They separated to their different dormitories, their hands breaking apart. Before they both were out of view of each other James whispered, "I love you…" and Lily whispered back, "I love you too…" and at that Lily walked slowly up the stairs, smiling.
Lily walked into her dormitory, and saw Marie waiting on her bed, to hear from her.
"Tell me everything!!" Marie said.
"Tomorrow…" Lily said dazed. She crawled into her bed, and closed the curtains around her, and laid down. She grabbed her wand from her nightstand and tapped herself, transforming her pajamas on her. She smiled and slipped into a dream…….
She looked at herself. She was dressed in a beautiful white wedding dress, and James was standing next to her, smiling at her. Lily looked around, and saw Marie, her bride's maid….
She smiled in her dreams. There's more to tell about the Lily's life, but those are other stories to be told….
"We should finish this," she said. James said nothing, just a cold stare came from him as he cleaned the trophies. ***I wonder what's wrong with him.*** "Is something the matter?" Lily asked.
