Chapter 37

"Oh you are so gullible." laughed James doubled up.

"hey that wasn't funny." she said glaring at him.

"Oh, you should of seen you're face." James laughed. "you were so shocked. you looked like you were going to cry." Lily walked over to James and hit him hard.

"ow." he murmured rubbing his arm. "What was that for?"

"That James Potter was for being a complete and utter twat. did you know how much you scared me there. God! you are such a prick!" She turned and walked out of the room slamming the door hard behind her. She ran down the stairs and through the common room. not stopping to speak to her friends all watching her with amazement. She ran out of the common room.

"Maybe he wasn't good in bed?" Sirius suggested when lily had gone. a smile appearing on his face.

"Sirius!" Shouted Katie in mock horror throwing a pillow at him.

"what?!" he asked trying to look innocent. Katie sighed and rolled her eyes.

"you're so stupid."

"oohh wow big insult there Katie." Remus laughed. Katie stuck her tongue out at him. They heard footsteps as James made his way down the stairs and into the common room.

"What did you do to her?" Liz asked James.

"I pretended to break up with her." James muttered a sad look on his face.

"You did what!" Sirius asked laughing. "Oh that is hilarious. She must be so mad. you so should not of done that."

"no shit Sherlock." James answered sarcastically. "Where'd you think she's gone?" He asked turning his attention to Liz and Katie.

"I don't know. maybe to the library or....." she began

"or what?" James asked eager to find Lily.

"She might of gone to see Diggory." James ran to the door of the common room.

"I said She might of gone to see him not definitely!" Katie shouted after him.

James ran down the corridor bumping into several people on the way.

*********************************************************************

Lily sat in the library her head in her hands. "James is such a prick. How could he think that was funny. To tell me that he wants to break up with me. Maybe he does want to break up with me. Maybe that's his way of hinting to me." She sighed and looked around the library it was empty. no one was around besides her. Not even the librarian. She turned as she heard the library door open.

"Lily?" She recognised the voice as Katie's.

"Yeah?" She asked

"You've been gone for ages nearly an hour and a half." she said softly grabbing Lily's arm. "James has been looking for you."

"Did he tell you what he did?" she asked. "What a prick."

"oh he didn't mean it. you know James when it comes to girls he hasn't got a clue."

"I know. I mean how could that be funny?"

"i don't know but come on let's go. Mcgonagall will have a go if she finds us just walking around."

"Katie we're in the seventh year and I'm head girl. I don't think she'll mind."

"Just come on. you should get back."

*********************************************************************

"is she coming?" asked Sirius staring at Liz.

"I think so."

"Wait I can hear footsteps!" exclaimed Peter.

"quick we have to get out of here." Shouted Remus forcing them all up the stairs and into the boys dormitory.

The portrait swung open and in walked Katie and Lily. The common room was deserted.

"right I'm going to see Remus ." said Katie beginning to walk up the stairs to the boys dormitory.

"I'll come with you." Lily said following her.

"No!" Katie half shouted. "you should go and get some sleep or something."

"ok." Lily said frowning.

She turned and walked up to her dormitory. She put her hand on the door and pushed it open. She gasped as the door creaked open. the room was covered in candles. She giggled as she saw James sitting on her bed. A rose in his hand.

"I'm sorry." He whispered.
