Chapter 28

Lily awoke with a start. She was in a cold sweat. She had had a bad dream. She kicked the covers off her sleepily. She turned to see James asleep in the chair next to her bed. He said he wasn't going to leave her side all night. They had been to dumbeldore and he had done a spell to clean up the room. He seems to think it was a practical joke. Lily was beginning to feel the same. She felt so stupid for freaking out so much last night. When the others came back from their snowball fight last night and saw the room they went mad. Liz immediately blamed Peter who wasn't at the snowball fight but he was in the library with Arthur and Arthur stuck up for him so it couldn't of been him. It was getting light now and there were several beams of sunlight floating through the room. Lily decided to get up and have a wash. She got up out of bed and picked up a towel and a change of clothes. She then walked over to the bathroom door. She was just about to turn the handle when she saw something pinned on the door. It was a letter much like the one she had found before. Lily gasped and pulled the letter off the door cautiously. She unfolded it and read:

"Did I scare you Lily? make you scream with fright? Don't you worry Lily I promise I won't bite. I saw you yesterday, but you didn't care. watch out lily. watch out and beware."

Lily looked around nervously. Who is doing this to her? She quickly made her way over to the side of the bed where James was and shook him to wake him up.

"Lily!" he called out half asleep. He snapped his head up suddenly realising where he was. "What's wrong?" he asked after seeing the look on her face.

"I got another note." she answered shakily passing him the piece of paper. He opened it and read it carefully. Lily watched him frown and his eyes darken. He stood up quickly and marched out of the room. Lily confused followed him.

"Where are you going James?" She questioned.

"I think I know who did this." He said angrily before storming out. Lily froze she didn't know what to do. should she follow him? she decided that she should. She walked quickly back to her dormitory and pulled on some clothes. She then ran back down through the common room to find James.

"Lily? Where are you going?" a voice asked her. She turned to see Remus there.

"I got another note. James read it and said he knows who it is."

"what did the note say?" he asked frowning.

"something like they saw me yesterday and to beware and they were asking if they had scared me yesterday." the look on Remus's face turned from confusion to anger.

"That dickhead." he said angrily, before walking quickly out of the common room following James.

"Remus wait." Lily called desperately after him. She scrambled through the portrait hole and down the corridor after him.

"where are you going?" she asked. Remus didn't answer her. Lily's eyes searched for James.

"What's going on?" Lily thought. Remus made a sharp turn down a corridor and then carried on down a flight of stairs. "How could James know who it was by just a note. It only said I saw you yesterday. Well a lot of people saw me yesterday. I don't understand it." They had been walking for at least five minutes now. Lily was getting tired of asking Remus questions but him not answering. Suddenly Remus stopped abruptly. He turned and placed his hand on a candlestick on a wall near by. He muttered something under his breath and the wall opened revealing a small passage way. Lily asked no questions just followed Remus down the passage in silence. Lily began to hear shouting coming from in front of them. The passage began to widen and steps appeared. Remus took Lily's hand and helped her up them. The had entered a round room. It was light and spacious and had sofa's all round the edge of it. Lily looked up and saw the hufflepuff crest on the ceiling. They were in the hufflepuff common room. In the middle of the room Lily saw James standing there surrounded by people shouting his head off at Amos Diggory.
