CHAPTER TWO-The beginning of the end(like the first chapter)
disclaimer- I own nothing, except anything you dont recognize, i forgot a
disclaimer in the first chapter so this is for both!
(this is during the beginning of Lily and James sixth year, yes after the Snapes worse memory chapter which was the previous year, remember!) This is right after Lily walked away from James and Sirius on the green who were once again terrorizing Severus Snape, James once again asked Lily out.
'oh that James Potter! How dare he do that to others and ask me out! I am so angry." Lily said to herself as she made her way to the common room to sit down and relieve her stress. What with her date that night with the tall, dark, and handsome Amos Diggory. One, he was an older boy, two he had the most beautiful blue eyes with his light brown slick hair. He was tall and muscular and very graceful.
Lily stared into space with happy thoughts of tonight, not even realizing Remus Lupin, a tall blonde boy with a kind smile and warm heart walk in and sit next to her on the couch. "Whatcha doing Lily?" Remus asked with a grin as he saw her dreamy look on her pale face. Lily, though 15, was 5 foot 1 and had long red hair that was envied by about every girl in the school. Her emerld green eyes were like precious stones that always had a twinkle in them, except when she was yelling at James Potter. Lily was top of her class, especially in charms, and she was always helping others. Lily, basically was perfect. Though in her eyes all she saw, like every teen girl, was imperfections. She hated her creamy complextion, her bright red hair, and her eyes that were the color of a dark forest.
"Oh, nothing. Just calming down is all. Why did you come up here, when all your friends are still out on the green." Lily asked looking at him for the first time since he walked in. His dark eyes looked like endless holes, his blonde hair getting lighter thanks much to the summer sun, and his tan face cracked wide in a smile as he looked at her.
"Oh, well. I would feel bad if my duties are a prefect were not used. You shouldn't sit alone, now you have a prefect to sit next to." Remus said with a little laugh at the end. Lily giggled alittle as well. Her and Remus were always on pretty good speaking terms. Lily liked his kindness for others and he always seemed to smile. He read alot just like Lily so they switched books sometimes. He, unlike the other so called marauders as everyone called them, would just sit and not pick on others or prank. He did prank, just only to those who he believed deserved it. Lily found that very nice of him, considering his friends. He stopped them from getting into serious trouble and helped out people who they were mean to.
"Good, I didn't want to really sit here alone." Lily said with a smile as she relaxed into the back of the couch she and Remus were currently sharing. A couple passing first years gave them a smile as they walked out to go to lunch. "I am sure you won't be alone too long anyway. Your pack should be along in a couple moments, I mean, are you ever alone?" Remus asked with a playful smile. "You know what? I don't think I am EVER alone." Lily said as she sat up again and looked around. "It is kinda weird." she added, she got off the comfy couch and stood up straight. "I think I will go find Devi." Lily said, then with a look at Remus. "I am sorry Remus, YOu are good to talk to and all, but I am afraid your hellish friends will come looking for you soon and I dont want to be responsible for anything I will do to that James Potter or his friend." Lily said, holding out her hand to help the tall remus up. He took it, and when he stood up, he was a good foot taller than the petite redhead. "OH, its fine. I don't mind. Besides your right, I dont think i am ever alone either so, goodbye Lily Evans." With a mock bow, he left up to the dorms and out of sight. Just as he did, Devi burst into the common room looking at Lily as though she was crazy. "why must you always break them up?" She asked with a look at Lily. "because no one deserves to be picked on, I had to go through it for so long, I hated it. No one, not even Snape, deserves that." Lily said, as she and Devi left the portrait hole to a group of four other girls, two being Morana and Lucie, Lily's roomates, the others being two ravenclaws who they all got alone with very well. Their names were Bethany, who had long golden blonde hair that was always in a neat ponytail, and the other being Isabelle, who had short black hair and bright blue eyes. All the girls were known for being good looking, ( I know that sounds very corny but how else can I say they are all pretty?) and all were different. The four girls in the hall though were always giggling, which verded away most anyone from them. Devi and Lily weren't too big on giggling. They kinda chuckled along with their friends, but not as much as the four other girls did. Lily and Devi were kinda the leaders of their pack.
"I am sorry Lily, but how can you just yell at James?" Isabelle asked with a dreamy look on her face. "I mean, he is SO good looking!" She added, the four girls then giggled to that, making Devi and Lily roll their eyes. "IS that all you care about Isabelle?" Devi asked with a grin to Lily who grined back. "well, no." Isabelle finished and looked down at the ground."its okay Isabelle, Devi is just mad that Lily yelled at her dream boy Sirius Black." Morana said with a grin to the four giggling girls and that caused Devi to punch Morana on the shoulder. Devi gave all the girls a glare and they quickly stopped laughing. Lily now giggled at this and she and Devi left for the great hall. "God, do any of them know how to keep a secret!" Devi said once she and Lily were seated at the table ready for lunch. "Oh, do you honestly expect them to?" Lily replied before shoving a chicken piece in her mouth and looking up for a reply. "no, not really but it still angers me. I mean, all girls like well you know who and I don't want other people to hear, they won't understand. I am a shy little person that's all." Devi said looking Lily straight in the eye. "But any way, enough about me, as we all know we love hearing about the world of Devi, well, what are you wearing tonight for Amos." she added with the same sly grin as she always had. "Oh, I hadn't thought of that yet." Lily replied, knowing she really had thought of it all day long she just didn't want to say that out loud though. "Okay, how about your black pants with that nice blue shirt I bought you last christmas, it seems nice for the Three Broomsticks." Devi rather mumbled thanks to the pork she had placed in her mouth moments before, smiling a porky smile at her friend. "How about my red shirt, I think that looks better for a date anyway." Lily said thoughtfully, she didn't really want to tell Devi that that summer Petunia had tried to steal Lily's shirt and streched it beyound recognition. "I guess." Devi replied and finished her pork.
Just then, a loud noise sounded throughout the great hall filled with students following with a loud thump that sounded like a body hitting the ground, making the two girls look up in wonder for what had made that noise. Lily looked up and saw that James Potter had been knocked unconscience by none other than Severus Snape and Sirius Black was furious and shouting. "DID YOU KNOW HOW WRONG IT IS TO ATTACK A PERSON BEHIND THEIR BACK YOU NASTY TOERAG!" Sirius shouted at the top of his lungs. "NOW IT DOESN'T MATTER THOUGH, YOU WILL KNOW NOTHING NOW!" sirius raised his wand and fired a blue light straight at Severus that Lily recognized as one of the powerful memory charms she had learned in Advanced charms. Several people gasped, some clapped, and some screamed. Lily just sat in stunned silence as five teachers ran up and pulled sirius out of the Great Hall as he was about to hit Severus with another spell, Professor McGonagall went to check on James, while Professor McWhimmy the potiions teacher floated Severus out of the hall. A couple moments later James was revised with a large scar across his face. He walked over to the Gryffindor table and sat down. "What happened Prongs?" Remus asked with worry in his voice. Peter just sat there staring at James with amazement. "That bastard walked up behind me and just send a horrible spell even I didn't know of at me and I was I guess unconscience." James said, slamming his fist on the table, scaring a couple first years who were near them. James waved it off and looked back at his two friends. "I can't believe he did something so cowardly and stupid, especially with Sirius right there, did he expect him not to do anything or what." Remus said starring into space. "I can, it's snivellus remember." Peter said and he went back to his food. "Right." James said, took a plate of turkey and ate his lunch.
"I wonder what happened." Devi said to Lily with worry in her voice that Lily knew was only because she was worried about Sirius. "I figure that Snape walked up behind Potter and send a bad spell on him angering Black and then he send a memory charm on Snape." Lily said not even looking up from her food, she knew that James was staring at her, he didn't know she knew, but she did. Lily hated it he did, it made her feel weird. Lily then got up and told Devi goodbye and went to get ready for her date with the tall Amos Diggory. "Ah, dear, You should wear your black boots, since they make you five foot five and Amos is six foot three." Morana said from the doorway carring Lily's black boots in with her.
" Thanks Morana, this helps alot!" Lily said with a laugh then getting up from her bed to look in a mirror. "How do I look?" Lily asked finally to Morana who gasped. Lily looked beautiful. She had her black flares on with a red long sleeve shirt that showed off her figure and her hair was down in loose curls with glitter on her face and shiney eye shadow that brought out her eyes. She looked like an angel. " You look great Lily, wonderful." Morana said honestly and added. "Oh crap. I am sorry Lily but I have to go, have fun and don't do anything I wouldn't do." and with a grin she was gone.
Lily walked into the common room, empty except for someone sitting in a chair with its back to Lily. Lily just ignored this and started for the portrait hole. "Lily?" The voice from the chair said, Lily immediently knew who it was. "Yes." She replied and turned around to face that person. James Potter said in the armchair with a look of shock on his face. Then, realizing he was starring, slapped himself and said "You look great, where are you going?" "OH, i have a date. Why do you care?" Lily asked, placing her hands on her hips and tilting her head, clearly she was bored. "Oh, sorry if I am butting in but with who?" James replied with a frown. "Oh, well, just Amos Diggory." and with that, Lily walked out leaving a stunned James behind her.
As Lily made it down the stairs, she looked around for a certain light haired tall Ravenclaw. It didn't take long to find him, she just followed a group of girls eyes. "Hello Amos." Lily said as he turned around with smile. "Why hello Lily, ready?" he asked, holding out his arm for her to take. They made their way across the grounds, tonight was a special couples only night in Hogsmead and Lily had been looking forward to it all summer. On the inside Lily was very nervous and excited but she looked calm and graceful on the outside. She was so nervous she would say the wrong thing and he would not like her that she didn't realize they were in the Three Broomsticks waiting for a table from Madam Rosemerta. "Here we are Lily." Amos said with uttemost confidence that Lily was indeed lacking. "thank you Amos." Lily replied, almost falling out of her chair because she was so nervous. "Are you alright Lily?" "Yes, I am fine, just kinda missed the chair, but I got it now." She replied with a smile. "that's good." Amos said.
The night went pretty much like that, small talk, but most of the talk about about Amos. Lily was bored early on in this conversation, though Amos wasn't. When they reached the great hall that night, Lily smiled up at him and he smiled back and said "I hope we can do this somemore, I really like you Lily and I think you really like me." With a grin he then kissed Lily, catching her off guard and she kissed him back. She was wondering though where all the fireworks that people discribed were but disregaurded that thought and said goodnight.
