~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The weather was getting colder and bits of snowflakes were already making their way towards the empty grounds of Hogwarts. Lily sat at the edge of her window.
'Christmas is coming soon and I'll have to go home and face Petunia,' she sighed.
"What's wrong hun?" Bella asked her looking very concerned.
"Well you know that Christmas is coming?"
"Yeah?"
"And you know that I'll have to go home?"
"Oh..right.." Bella sighed and hugged her.
"Hey I really am fine! Now lets practice our dance routine. I'll get Thayan and Claire!" with that Lily went out her dorm and went into Thayan's and Claire's dorm.
She came back a few minutes later with Thayan and Claire following behind her.
"Alright we're all here, so I'll put on the song, you girls listen to it before we start practicing!" Lily said cheerfuly.
The song came on and the girls relaxed. Then they did their routine.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey Lily!" James sat down beside Lily.
Lily skidded all the way to the end of the table.
"You're not supposed to be here.." Lily pointed out that he was a Gryffindor and was not allowed to sit at any other tables.
"So?"
"So please move, or I'll hex you so bad, even Sirius can feel it!" Lily growled.
"You wouldn't do that," James replied cooly.
"Yes I would. Either you move now or face the consequences." Lily withdrew her wand.
James was about to say something when..
"Please go and sit at your designated table Mr. Potter," Professor McGonagall demanded.
James pouted like a two year old and went back to the Gryffindor table.
"Good morning students of all ages!" Dumbledore giggled at his own words. "Remember our Talent Show that was scheduled for after Christmas break?" Everyone nodded. "It has been re-scheduled to next week, and all of you performers, please sign-up with forms that are going to be given out by your house prefect after breakfast." He said joyfully.
Lily gasped.
"Bellaaa." Lily whined.
"Yes Lily..I know..We'll talk about it later!"
"Well, without further ado, let the feast begin!"
Lily dug in happily.
"The food's so yummy! Lemon-blueberry muffin.." Lily drooled.
"Lily..Don't drool.." Thayan said under her breath.
"Ooo.Sorry!" she quickly wiped her saliva.
"Hey look. The mudblood drooling, like a hungry monkey," Malfoy's cold voice came out from Lily's back.
"Malfoy, before you insult me, be sure to take your broom out of your ass," Lily snapped back.
"Well why don't you take yours out, huh?"
"Because I don'tmake love with racing brooms," Lily answered cooly.
"Why you little fuckin.."Malfoy grabbed Lily's arm but was stopped by a pair of strong hands.
"Keep your hands off her Malfoy," James Potter gripped Malfoy's arms harder.
Malfoy glared at Lily and left. Lily was shaking inside.
"I didn't need your help and I never will Potter! Just stay the hell away from me!" Lily shouted.
James winced and looked longingly at Lily's retreating back.
"Don't worry James. I'm her best friend and I know she's just upset because Malfoy insulted her. Just take good care of her big fella!" Bella comforted James. She knew that deep down inside, James had taken a liking in Lily since their first year.
"What..How did you.." his question was cut off by her walking away.
'Shit! Even Sirius doesn't know! How can she..' James thought.
"What was that all about James?" Sirius asked puzzled.
"Yeah..That was kinda weird.." Remus continued.
"Oh it was nothing. Let's go to Potions." James replied and took his book bag.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Bella, what am I supposed to do..I totally blew James off.." Lily whined at her dorm with Bella.
"Shhh..It's ok Lily! I'm sure he'll understand..You were just upset!" Bella assured her.
"You think so?"
"Yes, now you have to go practice those songs you want to sing by yourself. Ok?"
"Ok," Lily was acting like a five year-old.
"Thank you Bella!" she hugged her.
"Oof! No problem!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Sirius, I have something to tell you.." James said quietly to a hyper Sirius.
"What what what! Ooooo.I love secrets!!" he bounced off the wall.
"Well, I kinda have a crush on Lily," the room went silent.
"I KNEW IT!" Sirius shouted.
"You did?"
"Well no..I guessed," Sirius said still bouncing off the wall.
James raised his eyebrow.
"Well I better go and practice the stuff I'm gonna do for the Talent Show!" James waved and left the room.
"Hmm..Wonder what I'm gonna do for the Talent Show!" Sirius was thinking hard (Yes thinking!!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And it was the day before the Talent Show!
"I'm nervous," Claire shuddered.
"Don't worry! We practiced like, everyday Claire!" Thayan re-assured her.
"Yeah it's tommorrow anyways, so lets practice the songs and the dance. I'll ask Arthur and Molly to put us last so we can perform last. Save the best for last! Wheeee!" Lily was definitely hyper.
"Calm down Lilz! Ok you can practice in the bathroom..You basically own 'Beautiful' pff.." Bella pouted. "You need to practice the other two songs anyway!" Lily skipped into the bathroom and closed the door.
"She's singing two more songs without us?" Thayan was a bit irritated.
"Yeah...Why not? Why won't you let her sing?" Bella pleaded.
"Why? Because we're supposed to be a group and in a group, no one is left out!" Claire demanded.
"Jeez! She has enough to worry about and she doesn't need you two to add more to it!" Bella shouted.
"Tell Lily I'm not performing anymore!" Thayan and Claire said in unison and stomped out of the room.
Bella's legs turned into jelly and she slumped down to the ground.
'Oh no..'
Bella ran out of the dorm and went out to the lake. She shivered and sat down under a tree. She then let her tears flow
'I can't believe I let my guards down..How can I be stupid enough to let strangers in? Lily's the only person who won't betray me!' She thought to herself.
She just sat there thinking about nothing when she felt warmer and realized that someone had put a warm cloak around her. She turned around and saw a big dog sitting beside her.
"Hey boy," she then petted the dog and leaned on it.
"I'm not that heavy am I?" she asked the dog.
The dog did a motion with it's head that looked like a 'no'. Then the big black dog was joined by a silver stag.
"This place looks like a zoo now," Bella giggled.
She continued to play with the stag and the dog until another person joined.
"Bella!! I looked all around the castle for you!" she then took a glance at the stag, "Oh my..A stag!" she walked up to the stag and hugged it. She giggled to herself and sat down beside Bella.
Sirius barked.
"Oops..Sorry big fella!" she then ran over to Sirius and petted him.
"Aren't they so cute?"
"They sure are! Where's Thayan and Claire?"
"They thought that you wanna sing alone wasn't fair so they left and they quit the Talent Show.." tears welled up in Bella's eyes.
Lily felt weak. She felt like her heart was being torn in two.
'I trusted Thayan and Claire very much..'
She quickly put a smile back on her lips.
"Lets go back in the castle. It's getting cold. Where did you get that cloak anyway?" Lily was puzzled.
"Oh I don't actually know. That dog gave it to me."
"Awwwww."
"I know! I have a feeling that Sirius and James are around though..Lets go.."
"Hold on. I want to hug the stag," and she hugged the stag that seemed like forever and let go.
