Chapter 14:
"Let me in! Come on! Where else could I put her?" Lily passed out, again and Lucius was trying and failing to convince the Fat Lady to let him drop her off in the Common Room.
"MALFOY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" James yelled and sprinted down the corridor. He left Brittany in his dust; she was stunned; her mouth fell open at the site of Lily. She was soaking, and water pooled onto the floor. Lily's hand was hanging over one side, revealing large cuts, which were still bleeding.
James touched Lily's wet hair and checked her pulse before interrogating the enemy. "For Lily's sake I will not kill you yet, so explain now."
"Lily and Lupin got into a fight and she ran into the Forest, I followed her. She cut her hands on a rose bush. The storm started and I dragged her out of the Forest, she saw a tree get struck by lightening and freaked out! This is all Lupin's fault!" Malfoy ended dramatically.
The four of them walked into the Common Room, and put Lily on the couch near the fire. Brittany covered her in a blanket and then all of them sat. They dint know what to do, they starred at her and each other. The tension was thick, and no one dared to breathe loudly or move. They just waited, and after two hours Lily Evans woke up.
Her eyelashes quivered and finally opened to show two bloodshot, dilated eyes. She blinked several times and they slid back into focus. She gave a half smile and whispered to Malfoy,
"Thank you.' She turned to James and her forehead wrinkled, "Where is Lupin and Black?' James' mouth fell open. "I am laying here dying and they can't even come and sit with me? What about Jia?" Lily laughed and James closed his mouth.
As if on cue Sirius and Jia came dashing into the Common Room hold the Marauders' Map.
"WHAT IS HE DOING HERE??" They shouted pointing at Lucius, everyone looked shocked, like they forgot he was the adversary.
"HE saved me, now give me that map, Lupin should be here!' She said ripping it out of his hands. Malfoy looked interested, but Lily knew not to show it to him. "Ah ha! Sirius, I found him, would you and Jia go get him and stop by the kitchens? We could use some Butterbeer."
Brittany's baby blue eyes were glaring at James and she was obviously jealous. Jia's dark chocolate eyes were quite the contrary. They were warm, and clearly content with Sirius, Lily didn't know how she could stand him. He was immature, even compared to the first years! His grades were above average, but he couldn't care less.
As she handed the Map to Sirius she noticed the cuts on her hands. She traced them with her index finger struggled to remember what happened in the Forest. Malfoy stood up and whispered "And you bleed just to know your alive" in Lily's ear, before silently leaving the Common Room.
