"I can't believe she could change. I thought she wasn't all that good in
transformation." James said for the umpteenth time today.
The three maurders were heading to dinner, Remus was still with Lilly.
They walked into the dinning hall and sat down at the Gryffindor table.
Just as they sat down Remus and Lilly walked in, Sirius saw them and waved them over. Lilly said something, they both laughed and walked over. They sat down and Peter asked "What's so funny?"
Lilly looked at him and simply said "Memories."
"Is it all right if Lilly sits with us today?" Remus asked the others. "Yea sure its fine with me." Sirius said and he nudged James.
"What?!? Oh yea whatever. So is that where you've been all day. With her?" James asked jerking his head towards Lilly.
"Yea you have a problem with that." Lilly asked sharply.
James just glared at Lilly and was about to say something but Dumbledore suddenly stood up and called for silence.
"I would like to inform you all that tonight after dinner will be a Karaoke night. This is for all ages and I hope most of you will show up. and if you all remember there is a dance coming up next Saturday. Now that that's out, lets eat." He waved his hand and food appeared on the tables.
Everyone started picking out food and Sirius, Remus, Lilly, and Peter were talking about what there latest prank was going to be. James just sat there not paying attention but staring angrily at Lilly and Remus.
Until finally Lilly got up and said angrily "That's it! You are just to annoying Remus and I have always been friends so stop staring at us! God get over it so I saved your life and you owe me-" Lilly stared giggling at that thought.
James stood up and said just as angrily "Its not my fault you waltz in here and try to take all my friends. Y-"
Lilly cut him off before he could say anything else. "Yea but its your fault we are even fighting! You and your insensitivity started this!" Lilly screamed and stormed out of the hall.
James looked around and noticed everyone was staring. He sat down grumbling and finished eating. After a few moments everyone started talking and eating.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lilly walked up to her dorm room and sat down on her bed. After a few minutes she calmed her self down and decided she'd pick something out to wear for the Karaoke tonight.
After picking things out and tossing them on her bed she finally decided on black pants, black tank top, and a sparkly blue over coat. I better take a shower first she thought. As she gathered up her bathrobe Leo walked in from the outside through the window.
"Hey buddy. What have you been up to?" she asked. The little kitten jumped on her bed and started purring as he settled himself down for a nap. Lilly laughed and walked into the bathroom. She turned on the shower and jumped in leaving her bathrobe on a hook. Her shower was very fast and she was out of it in five minutes. She slipped into her bathrobe and walked out.
Satinka, Jade, Leah, and Karisma were all on their beds waiting as it seemed for Lilly.
"Lilly what happened in there? You were talking with the boys and then you stood up, yelled at James and left." Karisma asked.
"Oh well James was starting to piss me off cuz he was staring at me like I wasn't allowed to be friends with Remus." Lilly said as she walked over to her bed and picked up her clothes. "Are you guys going to the thing tonight?"
"Yep" they all said together. They looked at each other and broke out laughing. Lilly smiled and shook her head. And walked into the bathroom and changed.
When she came out her roommates were arguing over who should wear what.
Lilly sat on her bed and realized something was bothering her. It's James, I'm still pissed at him and I know I better let it out before I head down to the great hall. Lilly thought and she pulled out her wand. With a few word and a flick of the wand her punching bag was hanging in mid air.
Lilly stood up and started beating the crap out of the bag. After about five minutes she realized it was too quiet for her roommates to be in there. Lilly turned around and saw four pairs of eyes staring at her.
"What?" Lilly asked. "Like when did you learn to fight?" Leah asked. Lilly shrugged and said "Over the summer. Are you done yet?"
Everyone nodded and followed Lilly out of the room. The talked about what they were going to be singing until they reached the great hall. Where Leah and Karisma left the other three and sat with some of their friends from Ravenclaw.
Lilly sat down at one of the tables near the back. Satinka sat across from her and Jade sat next to Lilly. Lilly looked around and saw that most of the school was here. Yuck Lilly thought there is Snape and Malfoy.
Lilly thought of something else and quickly scanned the room for Sirius and Remus. They just walked in and Lilly jumped up and ran to the boys.
"Ohh have I got a little prank. Come sit at our table and I'll tell you about it. Snape and Malfoy will love us for this." Lilly smiled wickedly, she lead the eager boys to her table and sat down. Sirius and Remus leaned forward eagerly but James refused to be interested.
"Ok we place their names in the hat that calls people up to sing. What should the sing hmm. lets see. Brittany spears. Which one I can't think of." Lilly said with an evilly glint in her eye.
"Oh oh I know!!! I know!! How bout 'I'm a slave of you' that would be great for them." Sirius said happily.
"Or opps I did it again." Remus said.
"Or we could have them sing her new song 'Boys'. Everyone knows it." James said.
"So now you like my idea." Lilly asked.
"Maybe" James replied.
"No offense, Lilly but I think 'Boys' will be quite funny." Sirius said and Remus nodded.
Lilly thought it over for a second and realized it would be funnier and the two boys would have to sing it.
"Ok and I know for a fact they know it cuz I heard them talking about it in one of the empty room. They like a muggle singer." Lilly giggled. "But in case they refuse to sing we should put a spell on them so they have to sing it."
Sirius nodded. "Ok James you do the spell and Lilly you write their name on a slip."
Lilly nodded, got up and walked over to the table that had the hat and paper on it. She quickly wrote something on two papers and walked back.
"What'd you put on the second one?" Remus asked.
"I put my name down for it. Any of you doing it or are you to scared?" Lilly asked as she sat down.
"I am I just can't think of anything." Sirius said sadly.
"What about you prongs?" Lilly asked James. "Um I don't know if I'm going to sing." He said. "Aw is little Prongies to scared to go up?" Lilly ask in a baby voice. "No! I'm just going to sing something but its a surprise." James said quickly. "Whatever." Lilly said.
Dumbledore asked for silence and got it of course. He pulled out the first name and called it. It was some Hufflepuff who stood up and started singing 'In the end' by Linkin' Park, very badly.
Lilly turned back to the others and said "I wonder when I'm going up."
"I wonder when Malfoy and Snape are going up." Sirius said smiling. "I hope its soon."
A few more people went up and then to everyone's, except Lilly, James, Remus, Sirius, Jade, and Satinka, Malfoy and Snape were called up. James Quickly pulled out his wand and said a spell under his breath and Malfoy and Snape were up on the stage speaking in time to the music together.
For whatever reason
I feel like I've been wanting you all my life
But you don't understand
I'm so glad we're at the same place at the same time
Its over now
Now they started singing and Lilly's table is howling with laughter.
I spotted you dancin'
You made all the girls stare
Those lips and your brown eyes
And the sexy hair
I shake shake my thing
I make the world want you
Tell your boys you'll be back
I wanna see what you can do.
The whole school is laughing now! Just cracking up at the two boys.
What would it take for you to just leave with me
Not trying to sound conceited but me and you were meant to be
You're a sexy guy, I'm a nice girl
Lets turn this dance floor into our own little nasty world
(Snape) Sometimes a girl just needs one (Malfoy-Oh I need you)
(Malfoy) To love her and to hold (Snape-I just want you to touch me)
(Snape) And when a girl is with one (Malfoy-mm mm)
(Malfoy) Then she's in control
Pick a boy off the dance floor
Screaming in his ear
Must have said something about me (Snape-What'd you say?)
Cause he's looking over here
You're looking at me, with a sexy attitude
But the way that boy is moving it (Malfoy-Uh)
It puts me in the mood (Both-ow)
Tonight lets fly boy have no fear (Malfoy-have no fear)
There's no time to lose, (Snape-everybody's ready)
and next week, you may not see me here, (Malfoy-nuh uh)
so boy just make your move. (Snape-let me see what you can do)
Oh come with me
Let's fly into the night
Boy, tonight is ours
Keep loving me
Make sure you hold me tight
Let's head for the stars (Snape-Get nasty)
Can't live with 'em, can't live with out 'em!
The two boys finished singing, turned beat red and ran out of the great hall.
Dumbledore stood up and said while chuckling "Next is Lilly Evans, singing 'Bitch' by Meredith Brooks. Luckily I like that song and let you sing it correct Miss Evans."
Lilly stood up, nodded and walked up to the stage. Dumbledore smiled and sat down as Lilly adjusted the microphone.
She nodded, the sign that she was ready. The music started and Lilly waited for her cue. It came.
"I hate the world today.
You're so good to me, I know but I can't change.
Tried to tell you but you look at me like maybe I'm an angel underneath.
Innocent and sweet.
Everyone was silent by now. Stuck in the awe state
Yesterday I cried.
Must have been relived to see the softer side.
I can understand how you'd be so confused.
I don't envy you.
I'm little bit of everything.
All rolled into one.
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover.
I'm a child, I'm a mother.
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint,
I do not feel ashamed.
I'm your health, I'm your dreams.
I'm nothing in between.
You know you wouldn't want it any other way.
Lilly smiled as almost everyone's yaw dropped, including James'.
So take me as I am.
This may mean you'll have to be a stronger man.
Rest assured that when I start to make you nervous and I'm going to extremes.
Tomorrow I will change and today wont mean a thing.
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover.
I'm a child, I'm a mother.
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint,
I do not feel ashamed.
I'm your health, I'm your dreams.
I'm nothing in between.
You know you wouldn't want it any other way.
Just when you think you've got me figured out.
The season's already changing.
I think its cool you do what you do what you do.
And don't try to change me.
I'm a bitch, I'm a lover.
I'm a child, I'm a mother.
I'm a sinner, I'm a saint,
I do not feel ashamed.
I'm your health, I'm your dreams.
I'm nothing in between.
You know you wouldn't want it any other way.
I'm a bitch, I'm a tease.
I'm a goddess on my knees.
When you hurt, When you suffer.
I'm your angel undercover.
I've been numbed, I'm revived.
Can't say I'm not alive.
You know you wouldn't want it other way.
Lilly finished the song with a little dancing and hopped off the stage. The applause was so loud Lilly almost had to cover her ears.
She ran back to her table and collapsed on to a chair. "Gosh, Lilly you were great!" Satinka said and hugged Lilly.
"I didn't know you could sing so well. You were the best one up there. Besides Malfoy and Snape." Sirius snickered and looked at James, who's mouth was hanging open. "James close your mouth. Your embarrassing." Sirius said while snapping in front of his face.
James jumped and said snottily "Not bad Lilly you've finally found something your good at." Lilly just shook her head, nothing James said could dampen her mood.
"Yes you should become a professional singer" a cold voice came up from behind.
Lilly whipped around and came face to face with Malfoy and Snape.
"So have you as I see." She said just as coldly. Malfoy's eyes darkened "I know you guys did it so tell me who's idea it was and I'll just beat the crap out of them now." He said looking from James to Sirius to Remus.
"Actually it was mine. So are you going to hit me?" Lilly snapped. Malfoy sneered "No I'd never hit a girl. Your singing was fairly good but I doubt your parents would be proud." Lilly gasped and punched him square in the nose.
Blood gushed from Malfoy as he tried to cover it and stop the bleeding. He managed to say "You damn mudblood. How co-"
He was interrupted because James had jumped up and punched him in the eyes. Professor Brumly, the professor in head Slytherin, ran over and helped Malfoy up who had fallen after James' punch.
"Evans and Potter you both will serve detention for this." He hissed angrily and whisked Malfoy off to the nurse's with Snape following close behind.
James stood there angrily and looked over at Lilly. He was shocked Lilly stood there shaking obviously on the verge of tears. She looked at James who was staring at her and ran from the great hall.
Remus looked worried and hurried after Lilly. As he left he heard Sirius say "Good job James! Couldn't have done it better myself."
~~~
Remus found Lilly in her dorm room, on her crying. He walked over to her, sat on her bed and waited for her to calm down.
"Why'd you leave?" he asked when she was quiet. "I don't want him sticking up for me. He can't stand me and I him. Plus I didn't want him seeing me cry again." Lilly said. "Maybe he was trying to get out of dept." she smiled weakly.
Remus shook his head "No I think he was really mad at Malfoy." "I can't believe Malfoy said that." Lilly whispered and started crying again.
Remus pulled Lilly closer to him and sung to her until she fell asleep in his arms. He smiled and tucked her in. This could have been somewhat romantic if I didn't think of her as my sister. Remus thought to him self. And walked out closing the door softly behind him.
They walked into the dinning hall and sat down at the Gryffindor table.
Just as they sat down Remus and Lilly walked in, Sirius saw them and waved them over. Lilly said something, they both laughed and walked over. They sat down and Peter asked "What's so funny?"
