Lily was well aware of the stares and whispers that followed her through
the halls. She had hoped that it would calm down a little over night, one
of those really short-lived fame things, but no. It seemed she would be in
the limelight until something else happened. Lily sighed, as she adjusted
her new ornaments. She had a lovely key chain that said "Make someone
happy Shut up" on a lanyard that was decorated with blue flames, and a name
tag/id card thing that said "Kill the Bunnies" (a/n: my new slogan, no u
can't have it, i made it up.), and some pins on her sack. One said "its
not that i'm antisocial, i just don't like you", and another said "i'm
laughing on the inside", and yet another said "bow to me." (a/n: i luv
those!)
People had been bugging her all day about when she had changed. But it wasn't so much that Lily had changed, as much as it was that she had always been like this. Now she just was over her shyness, and tired of being left out of everything.
"Lily!" Lil' turned, annoyed at being pulled out of her reverie. It was Peter Pettigrew. She smiled, but frowned inwardly. Something about him just didn't seem right...(a/n: i HATE him!!! also *winks* hint, hint...)
"James, Sirius, and Remus have been looking all over for you!"
Lily frowned. "What for?"
"They said that they needed to talk to you. C'mon." Lily followed Peter, thoughtful. What could they want? They would see her next period anyway. Lily glancing at her watch, hoping that this wouldn't take long. It was almost time for Ancient Runes, and she hated to be late for a class.
Peter led her down a deserted hallway, and pulled her into an empty classroom. Lily looked around, saying, "Peter? Where are James, Sirius, and Remus?"
Peter suddenly looked uncomfortable. "They aren't here, Lily." He whispered. Lily looked at him, and then raised an eyebrow. Peter looked down at the floor, and mumbled something. Lily didn't answer, so he said it again, a little louder. "Lily would you go out with me?"
*****************************
PPM were studying, when Remus looked up suddenly. "Guys, isn't Lily supposed to be in this class?"
Sirius frowned, and nodded.
"She's never late," Remus continued.
James suddenly looked thoughtful.
"Guys, where's Peter?" he said.
****************************
Now Lily felt really uncomfortable. Peter disgusted her, but she wasn't by nature a mean person. How could she say that nicely?
Meanwhile, Peter had turned a brilliant shade of scarlet, and was determinedly staring at the floor. He wasn't saying anything, but was just waiting for her answer.
"Peter...," Lily began in the kind of voice that meant no, but I don't wanna be mean to you.
"Oh, fine. But if Sirius, or Remus, or James asked you, you'd say yes. No one ever pays any attention to me. You all think that I'm disgusting or something. You're revolted that I could ever ask you out." Peter was furious, and was certainly not embarassed anymore.
"Peter, that's not true. I just don't think of you that way..." but Peter cut Lily off again.
"Lily, I've always known who you are. I've always admired your quiet determination, and I've always liked you. But you were never interested in me. Just the other three." He spat out the words with disgust, as though he ever regretted feeling that way.
"Peter-"
"Stop trying to reason with me Lily! I hate you! don't why I ever bothered. You wonder why people use you? You are so stupid! No one really likes you! Not even your precious "friends" that you think you have. Why would anyone like you?" Then Peter stomped away, leaving Lily alone with her thoughts.
