A/N: Hellllloooooooo! I am so sorry about that cliffhanger...NOT! I love being the evil one. Lolzers. Anyways, I'm going to shut up and let you read this chapter and I'll try not to leave an evil cliffie. However, the keyword there is 'try'.
Chapter Seven: It Would Be Cool If I Had Enough Talent To Actually Name Chapters.
"What happened to her?" Madame Pomfrey asked as James burst into the hospital wing. The nurse was currently fixing Evan Bones' broken nose (thank you, James).
"She...fell...out of...a tree," James panted.
The nurse totally forgot about Bones and ran over to the bed that James had placed Lily on. "Wait over there, Potter," she said, pointing to a chair. She pulled the curtains shut around the bed before beginning her work.
James collapsed in the chair, tears falling freely down his face.
"Potter, why the hell did you give me the most savage beating of my life?" Bones asked.
"You're just lucky I didn't kill you, you little bastard," James hissed.
"Why? You two aren't together, right? I mean, she said she'd go with me."
"That doesn't matter, Bones, we're friends," James said.
Madame Pomfrey came out...good timing, I think. "She's unconscious, but she should be okay," said the nurse. "Why don't you go change, James?"
"Right, I'll be back soon," said James.
The trip back to Gryffindor Tower that day was an incredibly long one for James. When he got there he saw Aimie, Remus, Peter, and Sarah in the common room. He went straight up to his dorm and changed.
Sirius was up there too. He was looking for the Marauders' Map. "Hey."
James didn't say anything. When Sirius looked up he saw the blood on his shirt. "What's that?"
"I nearly killed her," was all that James said.
"What? Who?"
"Lily."
"What?" Sirius yelled.
"She climbed up the tree and I went up after her. I think I scared her because she fell out and onto her head."
"Is she okay?" Sirius asked, grabbing James by the front of his shirt.
"Unconscious in the hospital wing."
"Come on, lets go!"
The two ran down to the common room, Sirius in the lead, and grabbed the others. James and Sirius explained what happened as the six of them headed up to the infirmary. Once there they sat around her bed.
James was crying and Sirius was trying to convince him that is wasn't his fault. Remus, Aimie, and Sarah all had tears running down their faces and Peter was just staring at Lily blankly.
They had to leave when curfew came around. Remus, Sirius, and Peter had to literally drag James out of the hospital wing and back to the Tower.
The next day was torture for the six friends. James completely blamed himself for the whole thing. Sirius couldn't stop thinking about his best friend. Remus, Aimie, Sarah, and Peter didn't know what to do with the other two.
The classes seemed to take longer than usual. When they ended, the Marauders and Sarah rushed to the hospital wing to see Lily. This was what happened everyday, except Saturday and Sunday. They lived in the infirmary by the weekend.
"Welcome to the first Quidditch game of the season!" Remus yelled into the magical megaphone. "Today's game is Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw.
"Here comes our Gryffindor Quidditch team! Captain and Chaser James Potter! The other amazing chasers are Aimie Kalis and Josh Finnagin! Here come our beaters, Sirius Black and Frank Longbottem! Keeper, David Wood! And last, but certainly not least, Seeker, David Thomas!
"Here come the Ravenclaws! Captain and Seeker, Bones. Chasers, Mitch Robenson, Melissa Caminare, and Angela Lauarsi! Beaters, Tommy Koston and Rich Peters. And here's the Keeper, Jack Chang."
The teams took their positions and the referee, Madame Hooch, got ready to release the balls.
"There goes the bludgers, followed by the snitch. The quaffle is up, and here we go! Potter grabs the quaffle right away and speeds towards the Ravenclaw end. Kalis and Finnagin are right behind him, the Ravenclaw chasers on their tails. Potter drops the quaffle, Kalis catches it...AND SHE SCORES! Ten to zero, Gryffindor."
The game continued for another twenty minutes. By then Gryffindor was in the lead, One-twenty to thirty. David was looking hard for the little winged ball. He spotted it around Bones' foot.
David changed course and sped towards Bones from behind. He caught the snitch and 'accidentally' knocked Bones off of his broom.
"THOMAS CAUGHT THE SNITCH! GRYFFINDOR WINS THE GAME!" Remus shouted. "The final score is two-seventy to thirty!" A dull thud was heard. "And Bones has fallen off of his broom," he added offhandedly. "Have a good day, people."
Sirius, James, and Aimie changed quickly and went straight up to the hospital wing.
A/N: Well, there ya go. A nice relaxing Quidditch game. I just thought you'd like to know that I was writing this part while in Math class and I was REALLY bored because we're doing review for the regents and it's taking FOREVER! Right then. Please review peepz.
