Lily awoke the next morning and sighed. It was raining outside and was freezing cold. Lily shivered and wrapped the warm blankets around her. She gazed around at all the sleeping girls on the beds beside her. and wished she could be like them, to have lots of friends, and not to have to put up with all the bullying that she did. Lily didn't seem to realise that she could put up with anything if she believed in herself.
Trouble was she didn't have an ounce of self confidence in her. she would just run away if anyone was mean to her, and that just encouraged the bullies further. They saw Lily as a punchbag which they could release all their stress on to. The girl next to Lily woke up she was called Helen and no one liked her that much.
"what are you staring at cats eyes" she hissed at Lily.
Lily shrank back away from her "nothing" she said timidly. Helen narrowed her eyes at her.
"good" she said looking at Lily distastefully.
"what's the matter Hel" called one of Helens friends Alex quite possibly the meanest girl in gryffindor "is that filth over there giving you trouble?"
"No it's Ok now"
"You watch it Evan's. If your not careful then we'll get you and all your little friends too.....Oh I'm sorry I forgot you don't have any friends" and she laughed cruelly.
(A/N you might wonder why gryffindors are being so mean, and I'm not sure either so lets just put it down to Lily was really really really hated, I'm sorry I can't think of
anything else)
Lily turned over on her bed and stifled a sob. This happened every day she was used to it but it didn't stop her crying.
"oh look Alex" Helen said nastily "poor widdle lilykins is crying whats the matter do
you want your mummy awww ain't that cute"
"go away Helen" Lily said unconvincingly between sobs.
"yeah come on Alex, lets go to breakfast" and they both walked out the door flashing Lily an evil smirk. Lily sighed and got up, the tear streaks visible on her face.
"don't worry Lily" said a slightly nicer girl called Emily "just ignore them and they'll get fed up and leave you alone" Lily smiled,
"thanks" she said "but I can't just ignore them you don't know how it is. You don't understand."
Emily shrugged she had only tried to help. She ran off with her friends leaving Lily in the dorm on her own. Lily sniffed, she didn't care, she didn't need friends she had Flufter. Deep down she knew she did need friends though.

James, Sirius and Remus were already at breakfast when Helen and Alex walked in. They grinned at the boys and started to walk over.
"go away." James said he really hated Alex and Helen they were always picking on that small girl Lucy, no Lily. Sometimes James felt really sorry for her, They glared at him and went to the other end of the table.
"God I hate those two" Remus said.
"tell me about it" Sirius said "have you noticed how they're always being mean to that girl with the red hair, who we cursed by accident?"
James nodded, "her names Lily" Just at that moment Lily chose to come in, her face down hoping that no one had seen her. She glanced around the tables. The only seats left were next to Alex or James Potter. What should she do. Luckily for her James had spotted her. He waved her over she smiled gratefully.
"thanks she said. I really didn't want to sit next to Alex" James smiled at her.
"we didn't want you to sit with her either" he said "it looks like she's being really mean to you"
lily nodded "she is" she said shyly.
on the other side of the table Alex and Helen were watching her jealously.
"she's just invited herself to sit with them" Helen said "they obviously don't want her
there"
"no" Alex agreed "lets get her when she goes out"
"nice idea" Helen said evilly. "she's getting up now, come on lets follow her" and they sneaked after her.
"they're up to something" James said, watching as the two girls sloped out of the room and after Lily.
"Jamsie you're really getting paranoid in your old age aren't you" Sirius said. James ignored him and went on with eating his cereal.
Just outside the dining hall, Lily had stopped to talk to a portrait of a thin spindly man. He had been on holiday to another portrait in a house in Barbados (A/N people in portraits have to get out sometimes don't they?) and Lily was asking how the trip had been.
"there she is" Helen whispered "on the count of three, 1,2,3" They ran at Lily and jumped on top of her. Lily screamed as loudly as she could and thrashed her arms and
legs wildly, but her small body was no match for the hefty builds of Alex and Helen and they had soon pinned her to the ground.
"Lily" the marauders said and they ran to where the sound of screaming was coming from.
"hold her down Helen" Alex said. "this is for tormenting James" She said and punched her square in the nose
"help, James" Lily cried.
"he won't come he doesn't like you", She punched her again.
"can't you see they don't want you there" she punched her again, and again. Lily had blood trickling all over her and was almost unconscious.
"STOP"
Alex and Helen turned around.
"what do you think you're doing" James yelled at them. (A/N umm big strong sexy James comes and rescues Lily) Remus was already at her side.
"she's got a concussion and a very weak pulse" he informed James and Sirius.
"we'll need to carry her to the hospital wing" Sirius said. James ran to Lily. Her eyes were shut, but he could here her breathing. He glared at Alex and Helen
"what were you thinking of" he spat "didn't you realise you could have killed her"
"she deserved it" Alex said nastily, "the cheek she had just to go over and sit next to you-"
"actually I invited her, and I'm damn glad I did. I dread to think what would've happened to her if she had sat with you."
"Come on James" Remus said quietly "we need to get her to the hospital wing, before it's too late" James nodded and scooped Lily's fragile body up in his strong arms.
Alex watched them go off in the direction of the hospital wing, and grimaced.
"wished we had killed her, everyone would be better off without her, wouldn't we Hel.............Hel?"
Helen looked up from her thoughts "oh yeah umm of course" Helen was mean but she wasn't mean enough to want to kill Lily. What had she got herself into?
