SoulmatesChapter Three: She Hates Me
James glared at Lily. Lily glared at James. James glared at Lily. Lily glared at James.
This was how it went all week.
"Hey, what lesson do we have next?" Kenna said, while yawning.
"Um-I think we have Charms," Tyra replied.
"Great! Another lesson with the idiot!" Lily spoke irritably.
When everyone had entered the classroom, Professor Flitwick hushed them and beckoned for them to sit.
"Can anybody remember how to perform a cheering charm?" he asked.
James put his hand up, but another arm shot up alongside him; Lily's hand.
"Yes Potter?"
James smirked at Lily, who glowered back at him. He raised his wand and performed the charm flawlessly, earning exaggerated applause from all his fans, which, come to think of it was every female in the class-except for Lily.
"Well done! 5 points to Gryffindor! Now, can anyone tell me the differences between a cheering charm and a laughing charm?"
Lily raised her hand once again.
"Yes Evans?"
Lily leered at James, then proceeded to answer the question.
"There differences are ~"
The whole lesson was spent by the two competing to answer questions and also with their constant glaring and gloating.
"They are so meant for each other," Kenna said dreamily while exiting the classroom.
James and Lily both heard her and stopped. They turned to her and in perfect unison, they said,
"SHUT UP!"
***
Soon it was lunch, and the marauders sat at their usual spot beneath the trees. James was still fuming; Remus was reading a book; and Peter and Sirius just stared into space.
Sirius, who was very bored, looked over at the girls by the lake and winked at any who looked in his direction, making them feel woozy.
"Hey, what d'ya think of Kenna Dainsley?" Sirius said unintentionally.
"Dainsley? Evans' friend?" James asked curiously. "Why?"
"Oh, nothing really." Sirius said quickly.
"Well, She's kinda pretty, and I've heard she's up for loadsa fun. The perfect girl for you, Sirius!" James said smirking.
Sirius felt his cheeks heat up.
"WHAT?! I was just asking, that's all!"
"Yeh, whatever you say," Remus said looking up from the book he appeared to be reading.
"Oh, is that so then? Well, how are your prefect duties going with Tyra."Sirius said deliberately emphasizing on the name.
Remus stopped. Then said, "Fine. Just fine."
"Hey look!" Peter cried, before Sirius could go on.
Lily was walking across the field, while chatting to the Hufflepuff Quidditch seeker, Ben Hopkins.
"Never knew you liked the stupid type, Evans!" James shouted uncontrollably.
He had nothing against Ben Hopkins, except maybe on the Quidditch pitch, but now he felt the sudden urge to insult him.
"Shut up! You moron!" Lily glared at James.
James glared back, then shot daggers at Ben.
"Well-er, I'll see you later Lily," and with that, Ben hurried off.
James smirked in satisfaction seeing him leave. What a wimp, he thought.
Lily looked as though she could kill James right at that moment.
"YOU IDIOT!"
"Hey, chill Evans, okay?"
"Why you!" She raised her wand and before she could do anything, James had already cast a spell. A hair one, which made all of Lily's hair fall off.
"I always wanted to see what you looked like if you were bald!" James laughed.
Lily, although she was fuming, seized the opportunity while he was laughing to mutter a charm.
Within an instant, James' hair began to grow very very long.
"Oi Potter, I always wanted to see what you looked like as a girl!" Lily retorted.
By now a crowd had gathered round the two spitfires.
"C'mon Jamie, show her you mean business!" A snobbish fan called out.
Lily, ignoring this shouted, "Give me my hair back, Potter!"
"You know James, you really should give some of your hair to Evans! It seems like you have enough!" Sirius teased. By now James' hair had reached down his back.
"SHUT UP, SIRIUS!"
"I SAID, TURN MY HAIR BACK!"
"Oh, think about it Evans, maybe you'll get more dates now with this new look, your old one did you no favours!"
"YOU'RE SUCH A BIG-HEADED GIT, POTTER!"
"And you're not?"
"Enough!" Remus stepped forward and changed Lily's and James' hair back to their original form.
Lily smiled at Remus, but glared at James. Just when she turned to leave, James murmured a few words, causing Lily to slip and fall flat on her face.
Humiliated, Lily, although she wanted to, didn't cry. Her emerald eyes blinked away any tears. She got up and held her bleeding hand, which had been badly scraped against the ground. She cast a dirty look at James, and walked off.
"I think you went too far, James" Remus said simply.
"Yeh, did you see that look she gave you?" Peter said agreeing.
James felt really guilty inside.
He hadn't really intended to make her slip, and the look from her face disturbed him.
He had never seen it before. Sure she always glared at him, but those looks were just out of anger.
This look was full of hatred.
James had never actually hated Lily; he just loved winding her up. Now, by the looks of it, Lily hated James, and somehow, James felt very uncomfortable by this.
He had never actually wanted Lily to ~ hate him.
A/N: ooh, I'm sorry this chapter didn't say very much, but I needed it to show Lily's anger towards James. I promise more exciting chapters, and fluff in da near next ones. Please review and tell me what ya think, I'm open to all opinions. Thanx 4 reeding this!
