I could feel a small spat of drool land on my neck, his putrid breath
piercing my nose. I tried again to let out a scream but it was no use.
His grip tightened around my neck, closing my airways. Everything was
getting dark, quickly. Suddenly, I could breath. A small light filled my
eyes. I began to wonder if this was what death felt like when an arm
wrapped around my waist. I was flying, I could feel the wind.
"That was a close one Evans. Luckily I remembered it was a full moon. It's my duty to tie Remus up. I'm supposed to meet him down here before high moon." She opened her eyes to see the face of James Potter. "What.where are we?" James smiled. "We're flying over the lake Lily. I ran out of the front doors to find Remus choking you."
So that was where that light came from, the Entrance Hallway, after he opened the doors. He must have grabbed me, called upon his broom, and pulled me up to safety.
"Take me back to the common room, James. I would like to go to bed now." I could feel his muscles tighten. "I'm afraid I can't do that Lily. I have to take you to see Dumbledore. You have seen Remus and no one was ever supposed to know." Lily sat up, leaning against James.
What was going to happen to me? Would Dumbledore send me off to home, never to return so Remus' secret would be kept. Would he take away my memory? That would seem like the better choice. The night grew cold as James turned the broom, heading back towards the school.

"Well Lily, I'm afraid I am going to have to use a memory charm on you." Dumbledore smiled at her, his face full of comfort. Lily frowned. She liked knowing a secret, something no one else knew. "Oh please Dumbledore. I won't tell anyone! I swear! I would really like to remember this night, if at all possible." After much arguing, Dumbledore finally agreed, setting Lily free to go to bed.
James was waiting in the hall. "So. . .err. . .Lily? How was your night?" She smiled. "Oh stuff it. He didn't use the charm on me, I know everything." James looked rather taken aback. "But no one was supposed to know except for me!" She smiled. "Not anymore! Good night Potter. We go home tomorrow."
And with that, she hurried off down the hall towards her room.
Monica was in the corner of the common room, her nose buried in a magazine. Lily hurried up to her room and packed. It didn't take her long because she always kept her stuff so well organized. She undressed and crawled into bed. She laid there for awhile, staring at the ceiling.
James Potter rescued me tonight. That was rather nice of him. He is supposed to be mean. I'm surprised he didn't sit there and make me beg for my life, Remus would have never hurt him. Probably would have loosened the grip a little till I came to. He should have told me that he would have Remus kill me if I didn't go out with him. But he didn't. . .
Lily drifted slowly off to sleep. The last thing she heard was someone enter the room, open their trunk, and leave again.

A/N: I know this chapter is really bad. I have been suffering from a severe writer's block but I am really trying. If I get enough bad reviews, I'll rewrite it.
