A Twist of Fate
Chapter Two
Lily Evans stood outside of King's Cross, her red hair blowing in the wind.
"Lily!" someone called, their voice almost inaudable.
Lily turned around. It was Jasmine and Clair, as usual. They hurried ver to Lily.
"Why were you waiting out here?" Jasmine screeched over the wind.
"I wanted to wait for you guys," Lily yelled back. "Come on, let's go inside."
The three hurried inside. The station was very busy, and there were people everywhere.
"Damnit, I think I lost my hat outside," Jasmine said, feeling her head.
"That's okay, I owe you guys big this Christmas," Lily grinned.
"C'mon, let's go," Clair said, pulling the other two girls along. All three of them went through the platform together.
BANG!
Lily coughed as black smoke erupted all over the platform. 'No wonder,' she thought as she spotted Sirius, James, Remus, and Peter off in the corner. She never really liked Peter, for some reason, and it was really a wonder why he was in Gryffindor. He sort of used the other guys for protection; he was never really that brave.
They hurried onto the train and sat in a compartment.
"Oh shit, I have to go," Lily said as soon as she sat down.
"What?" Jasmine and Clair asked in unison.
"Head compartment," Lily said sarcastically. (A/N: I don't know if a 6th year can be Head Girl or Boy, but a 5th year can be a Prefect so...I'm just making Lily the Head Girl, I'm confused!)
"Aw," Jasmine said as she waved goodbye to her friend.
Obviously the Prefect compartment was up front. Lily was surprised when she opened the compartment door. It was at least twice the size of a regular compartment, and had drawers full of candy, drinks, and a whole lot of other good stuff.
Lily threw her stuff in a corner of the compartment and lay down on one side. She propped her back up against the side of the compartment. She grabbed her own copy of 'Hogwarts, A History' from her suitcase and began to read. 'I wonder who the Head Boy is...' Lily thought as she drifted off to sleep.
*~*~*~*~*~
There was a rummaging sound and a "Shhh!" that caused Lily to wake up.
"Wha-huh?" Lily yawned and was surprised to see the four Marauderers' rummaging around the cabinets for candy.
Sirius looked over at Lily. "We'll just go and-pretend we were never here," he said, his cheecks bulging with candy. Peter, Sirius, Remus, and James left quietly.
Lily shook her head. Obviously Remus was the new Head Boy and the other three were using him to get to the food. "Boys," she muttered under her breath.
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Lily?"
"Yeah, come in," she replied. Lily put her book away book and stood up to stretch. It was Jasmine and Clair.
"We heard that this place is chock full of candy," Jasmine grinned.
"Help yourselves," Lily said, returning the grin.
"Do you think we'll get in trouble for being here?" Clair asked as she began to unwrap a chocolate frog.
"Sirius seemed to think so..." Lily thought aloud.
"Sirius was in here?" Clair asked. Jasmine was too busy pigging out of Bertie Botts Every Flavour Beans.
"Yup. The whole gang. Trying to steal candy or something," Lily said through a mouthful of blueberry Bertie Botts.
"Ew, nasty!" Jasmine croaked and made a choking noise. "I thought it was toffee..."
Yet again there was another knock at the door.
"May I come in?" It was Professor McGonagall.
"Um...sure, one second," Lily said nervously. She jabbed her finger, motioning for Jasmine and Clair to hide in the closet. They opened it quickly and got in.
"Ok, come in," Lily said.
Professor McGonagall opened the compartment door and scanned the room. "Is James here?" she asked immediately.
"Why should James be here?" Lily spat. Out of the four Marauderers', Lily decided by the beginning of her first year that James and Sirius were the worst.
"He's the new Head Boy, didn't you know?" she asked.
"He...HE'S the Head Boy!?" Lily excleimed. "I can't work with him..." Even though James had come with them to Madam Malkin's, he was a whole different story at school.
"Well, if you see him, tell him that you two must meet at Professor Dumbledore's office immediately after the sorting. ...no one else has been in here, have they?" she asked suspiciously.
Lily was about to say no when Jasmine and clair toppled out of the closet.
"Ow!" Jasmine screeched as she landed on her bottom. Clair fell n top of her. They both quickly got up and smiled nervously at professor McGonagall.
Lily put her right hand on her forehead.
"This is for the Head students' use only," she said strictly. "I will have to issue you each a detention, come to my office after the sorting." And then she left the compartment.
"Geez, and the trimester hasn't even started yet!" Clair exclaimed. "Come on Jasmine, let's go." Jasmien and Clair left at the exact same time that Severus Snape walked in. He had liked Lily since, well, forever, but Lily obviously didn't have the same feeling.
"Aw did your poor litle friends get a detention?" Snape sneered as he watched the other two girls leave.
Lily chose not to reply.
Snape started advancing on her.
"Get away from me!" Lily exclaimed and put her arms in front of her chest.
"Why don't you like me?" he asked softly.
"Personally, I don't want anything to do with you," Lily snarled and hurried out the door. She rushed over to the last compartment and opened the door.
'Great, great, great, I just keep running into my most favorite people,' Lily thought sarcastically. James, Sirius, and Remus were sitting inside whispering about something. Peter was most likely off sitting with Frank Lomg Bottom or something.
"Do you need something?" Sirius looked up as Lily sat down.
"I'm hiding from Snape," Lily panted, as she had run the whole way here.
Remus laughed. "Remember last year when Snape-"
"Shut up," Lily said as she sat down in the seat. "I'm only here because he'd obviously figure that I'm with Jasmine and Clair."
"Oh sure," Sirius said. "Or maybe you're deeply in love with us."
"Maybe not," Lily said and gave Sirius a sarcastic smile. She noticed that James was grinning busy putting away some papers. "Aw, did I interupt something? Were you guys planning some big prank or something?"
James looked up and his eye twitched. "No..."
"Did you notice that your eye twitches every time you lie?" Lily asked.
"Hey...thanks Lils!" Remus exclaimed and grinned evily at James.
James gave a litle smile as sirius began to bombard him with questions. "Is your mum a death eater? Do you like Lily? Do you like Hannah? Do you like-"
"Shut up," James said quickly. Hannah was probably the most popular Gryffindor, and unluckily Lily and her friends had to share a their dorm with Hannah and her friend Victoria.
"We will be arriving at Hogwarts in approximately ten micutes. All students please change into the robes," the voie over the intercom said.
"Alright, I gotta go then," Lily said, getting up.
"You could stay here..." Sirius began.
"I think I'll pass," Lily said and smirked. She was just about to leave, but she peeked her head back in the compartment. "Hey Potter, you're really the Head Boy?"
"Yeah EVANS," James replied.
"Oh my God..." Lily thought desperately as she left the compartment.
"Hey, Lily! Good luck with Snape!" Remus shouted, which was followed by a loud "Shhh!" from James and Sirius.
Did they know something about her and Snape that she didn't?
*~*~*~*~*~
"Potter, Sarah!" the sorting hat called.
Lily's ears perked up. James must have a sister... Than she put her hand back on her chin and began to listen to the sorting hat like she had been for the past half hour. someone poked her on her back.
"Note," Jasmine said and handed a piece of parchment to Lily. She just shrugged and and Lily unfolded her note.
Dearest Lily,
Do you want to?
Love,
Severus
Lily crumpled up the note and threw it at James. It hit him straight in the nose. They gave themselves off so easily. A moment later Jasmine handed her another note.
Sorry.
Lily looked over at James and he just shrugged.
Good
was what Lily wrote back.
I don't want you to hate me, Lily, we have to work together because we're Head Boy and Girl you know.
Lily just roleld her eyes and slipped the note into the pocket of her robes. She was really sick of the Marauderers lately.
The sorting ended and Lily, Jasmine, and Clair got up. Lily prodded James on his back. "We hafta go to Dumbledore's office," she whispered. He nodded and got up.
"What are you two doing?" James asked Jasmine and Clair as soon as the four were a distance away from the Great Hall.
"Detention," Clair said glumly.
"We were caught in the Head Boy/Girl compartment," Jasmine added with the same tone.
"Your first detention?"
"Nope," Jasmine and Clair chorused. They had gotten in a lot of trouble in the past, but somehow Lily always maneged to get out of it.
James nodded. Lily thought that he would have had a lot more to say but...oh well.
"Ok, we better get going," Jasmine sighed as she and Clair turned the corner.
"Do you hate me?" James asked quietly as soon as the other two girls were out of hearing range.
"I don't-no, I guess I don't. I don't even know you, really," Lily thought aloud. It was true, though.
"I've only been in the same school as you for five years!" James exclaimed.
Lily remained silent for the rest of the walk and listened to James talk about Quidditch...something or other. "We're here," she said as they stood in front of the Headmaster's office.
"Um...do you know the password?" James asked.
"No," Lily said scornfully. For some reason, now, she didn't really like James...so she guessed she sort of lied to him.
"Um...Bertie Botts! Chocolate Frog! Pumkin Pastry! Cauldron Cake! Blood Lollipop! Chocolate-covered Banana Cockroch Clusters! What the Hell!?" James exclaimed. The door opened and Lily sniggered.
The two entered the Headmaster's office to find that someone else was already there, and it definetely wasn't Dumbledore.
*~*~*~*~*~
Hehe. Holy Cricket! There's 63 'Lily' s in this chap... Well, I bet I'm not gonna post this for a while, but right now it's Christmas Eve, 9:16PM so...
HAPPY CHRISTMAS PEEPS!
Although I already said that last time, but I feel in the holiday spirit! Byez!
