THE DEVIL WITH AN ANGEL'S FACE
Chapter 6: The Snitch
DISCLIAMER: All belongs to her that holds the power, the fate and the money- -J.K.
I stood there for a few minutes, then quickly gathered my things that were on the floor around his bed without disturbing them. They were French kissing and I was about to cry. I could have--should have started to scream and yell and throw things, but I was too mad to think of anything like that… I ran down through the c-room and up the stairs, with my things in my arms. I opened and slammed my door and after that I let my tears flow freely. How could he do this?! Sure we had fought and sure, he had said that we should be "done with" but I never thought he actually meant it. I sat down on my bed and buried my face in my hands. I took my pillow off the bed and up to my face. I screamed into it very, very loud. I took it away from my head and saw a piece of paper on the bed. It was slightly squashed, so I knew it had been there for a while. I opened it.
Lily you are the one for me, you are my all and everything. I love you. -Sirius
There was a small knock at the door and I could hear Remus' voice,' Lily, are you ok? What's the matter…' he trailed off when he saw my face and the note ripped into shreds around my bed. 'G-go and l-look for yourself,' I choked out and he left. He came back a few minutes later and sighed. 'I'm really sorry Lily,' he said quietly.
'I want to be alone. I'll be back in a while. Bye,' I said in a rush and left. I went to the only reasonable place I could think of-- the library. It was empty, except for Madame Buge, who was putting books back into their proper places, muttering 'They never to it, I always have to.' She didn't notice me as I crept by her and up the staircase. I turned to the left and moved the fifth staircase out of the way. There was a small door, which I crawled through.
I lit my wand and sighed. This was my secret hiding spot. I found it in my 2nd year on accident. Anyway, there was a really pretty bench with soft cushions on it, facing towards the Forbidden Forest. Since the room was in the highest tower, I could see past Hogsmeade.
The sun was setting and the sky was turning a thousand different colors. I sat there, numb, just looking at the sky, then the stars. I sat there long after midnight and when the sun started to rise, I went quietly down the stairs, through the quiet school, staying in the shadows most of the time. I went down the familiar path to the kitchens, not meeting a soul. I tickled the pear and pulled on it.
The House-Elves looked very pleased to see me. I sat down on a chair that one of the elves had placed behind me and had my breakfast in the kitchens, with the elves running around, putting food on the tables and stopping to give me more food and such.
I could see the four tables above me, there were only about 14 people in the Hall, the Hufflepuff team at their table and Gryffindor at our house table. I could see the team looking worriedly at the big oak doors, waiting for their Keeper, me, to come.
I finished my breakfast and summoned my broom using a simple spell, and then I flew to the pitch. It was about an hour before the team arrived. They came into the changing rooms, me already changed and looked shocked to see me. James and the captain, McFlock, came in a few minutes later. McFlock was saying to James,' Well, maybe we should forfeit, I mean we don't have a Keeper…' he trailed off when he saw me. At first I thought he was going to try to straggle me, but then his face cracked into a grin. He said,' I'll be back, I gotta tell Dumbledore to call off the search,' he said on his way out of the room, using a spell to change clothes,' Oh, and Evans, please try to win, I hate Stanley.' 'Don't we all,' James said,' so where have you been? We've been tearing apart the school looking for you.' 'I was…busy,' I finished lamely. 'Ok,' James said unsure, then he started to change his clothes.
A few minutes later we were called on to the pitch, McFlock now with us. Ryan Stanley, the Hufflepuff captain, who everyone was annoyed by (I mean EVERYone), because he had very stupid ideas and was very self-absorbed, walked onto the pitch. McFlock's face hardened. He had caught Stanley kissing McFlock's girlfriend two days ago and wanted Stanley to pay. They shook hands quite forcefully and the game started. After about 5-6 hours, the score was 350-0, Gryffindor in the lead. No one had seen any sign of the snitch and people were starting to leave. The game was so unbelievingly boring; I didn't have anything to do.
The commentator, Jake Godfery, was saying in a really bored voice,' Someone passes to someone, someone grabs the Quaffle, goal… can someone please catch the snitch?' I looked toward the bench where he was sitting and he was slumped over in his seat, McGonagall sitting next to him, head on the table, apparently sleeping.
I heard a buzzing next to my ear, and I swatted it away. I heard it again after a little while, and swatted it again. This time I grabbed hold of it. The Snitch. I, the Keeper, caught the Snitch. Oops. Is that illegal?
I called a time out. 'God, we're creaming them, it couldn't be better,' McFlock said enthusiastically. 'Face the truth. I'm ready to leave. James, catch the Snitch,' one of the Chasers said. 'Listen,' I said,' I caught the Snitch. Is that illegal?' They looked at me like I was crazy. 'I don't know, I can't remember. Just hand it over to James, and fly back into the air and James, let it go and catch it soon,' McFlock said. I did what he said, and 15 minutes later, we won 500-0. We fell back over the heads of the people walking and laughing.
The Gryffindors yelled,' Party! Common Room! James, get the food, ok?' the Gryffindors were really happy that night because A) the game had finally ended and B) we were in the lead, 4th year in a row.
During the party, I could see Sirius out of the corner of my eye looking at me. I was sad. He had really hurt me. I couldn't be happy, but I couldn't be sad. I was just frozen, cold inside. I was the Frozen Lily.
