Hello everyone.. How is everything going? Here is yet another chapter for
my loyal readers and reviewers. I would much appreciate reviews, I love
them. Anyway I don't own Harry Potter. On with the fic.
Lily smiled as she looked at Bella and Sirius playfully hit each other. After only a few days, they had flirted more times than anyone could count.
Christmas was coming up and Lily still hadn't bought the boys or Bella anything. She didn't have much money so more than likely their presents would be homemade.
Lily sighed. She hated her family. Her sister, Petunia, had disowned her when she had gotten her letter to Hogwarts. Her parents were alcoholics that when she was at home, did incredibly horrifying things to her, she had the scars to prove it.
She looked down at her wrists, her sister had tried to make it look like she had committed suicide but the plan didn't work out to well, all that happened was Lily spent a week in the hospital and had huge scars on her wrists.
Thinking of home always made her sad, she knew what was going to happen. That single tear that always seemed to escape from her; she tried so hard to keep the sting out of her eyes.
Lily frowned. The truth was that she thought that she deserved to be treated that way; her sister had always done to her for the past six years. She just learned to live with it.
She usually got depressed when Christmas came around because she didn't have any money to buy her friends anything, but they said they didn't care. But lily felt bad because they all bought her great gifts when she gave them home made picture frames, with her smiling face in them.
Being poor didn't bother Lily, it was the fact that she always wore long sleeve shirts and long pants. She had convinced Dumbldore that she couldn't possible show off that much leg. She never wore dresses. If ever you wonder why Lily Evans is a tough girl, its because of the crap that she goes through when she is at home.
James was watching Lily; she was looking at her wrists again. That was never good, this was usually the time when Lily would have a single tear escape from her beautiful eyes. Did James just think she had beautiful eyes, you bet your mother best cookie jar he did.
As if on cue, a single tear slid its way down Lily's face, it was what always happened when she thought about home. She was tough but no one is that tough. Lily didn't wipe it away, she never did. It was her way of letting go of the thoughts that she was having.
She turned to see James watching her, and for the first time she felt like she could actually see her self in love with James Potter. Her eyes widened, she wasn't supposed to be thinking those things about one of her best friends, if not her best friend. She never had these types of thoughts.
James didn't miss the wide eyes.
"You alright Foxy?" He asked her feeling concerned.
"I'm. I'm fine, I am going to go up and sleep for a while. I don't feel myself today." Lily said and as she was walking up the stairs she couldn't help but blush.
'What is wrong with you, you cant possibly like your best friend. No one said you liked him, I said you loved him. There is no way that I could love.. Don't fool yourself.' Lily thought.
She just stood in the door way of her dorm, she looked back down the stairs to see that James was still watching her with an amused look on his face.
Lily frowned, even if she did love him there was no way that he could possibly love her.. could he?
She laid down on her bed to try and decipher her thoughts.
Lily could tell that something wasn't right, she never thought like this.
Maybe watching Sirius flirt with Bella had done it. Lily knew that she could never be as pretty as Bella, and that was enough to discourage anyone.
She walked back down into the common room; it was still fairly early in the day. Enough time to go play quidditch.
"Hey guys.. Do you want to go play some quidditch?" Lily called from the bottom step.
All the guys snapped to attention, and smiled.
"Yes sir. Well go get our brooms and "the box" and well be right down." Sirius said, even doing the quotation sigh with his hands. They ran up the stairs faster than a fox running from a pack of hunting dogs.
"Are you going to play Bella?" Lily asked. Bella nodded.
"I am just a tad bit afraid of heights." She said, lily laughed.
"That is just lovely. My new best bud, is afraid of the thing that I love the most. Oh I can see it now." Lily laughed and Bella looked just a little scared but soon gave in and laughed to.
The boys came down fairly quickly, and soon the rest of the afternoon was spent playing quidditch and just lying around on the pitch talking about stupid things such as; who they all though Lily would marry, James said Serverus Snape, but was silently hoping that it would be him.
Lily laughed when James had said Serverus Snape; there was no way that was going to happen. She knew she had to do something about the feeling that she was having for James, but she wasn't quite sure what it was yet.
James was thinking just about the same thing, but he knew what he was going to do. Christmas was coming up, he could tell her than with mistletoe above his head.
Sirius and Remus looked at each other and smiled, they had a feeling of what was going on in their friend's heads.
Bella and Sirius kept smiling at one another, Lily laughed.
Peter just sat staring at everyone. 'One day I will be the better person in this group.' He thought.
If only she could be like that, everything would be a lot easier.
Silently Remus knew what was going to happen. But he was glad that the full moon wasn't for a couple more weeks. He hoped that when they tell Bella she would understand and not run away screaming. Remus couldn't count how many times Lily had to perform a memory charm on someone.
Lily was smart, even if she was muggle born. Lily smiled at Remus, but only before she threw a large piece of mud at him, which started an all out war.
The six sixth years made a very large mess walking to their common rooms that day, but none the less, it was a good day.
