"Lily?"

"Lily dear, come on get up!"

I heard the voices talking to me but I really didn't want to get up. Because when I got up Professor happy-all-the-time will probably make me test my potion and then everyone would know that I love James Potter.

But his potion thingy did say I was his true love...

But Harry. Harry saw that his father's true love isn't his mother.

Ouch.

The bell rang. Thank god.

I shot up, grabbed my bag, and ran out of that class room as fast as I could. I heard the professor call after me but I ignored her. There was no way in hell I was going to let everyone know I had any feelings for James Potter except pure hatred.

I decided that I should talk to Harry about what happened in potions. So later that night I walked down to the common room and was pleased to find Harry sitting all alone.

"Hey Harry," I smiled at him as I sat down next to him on the couch.

"Hey."

"What's up?"

"Trying to find a way to get home but besides that nothing much."

"How's you get here in the first place?"

That was something I'd been curious about, I don't think he ever said. Maybe he told us and I just missed it...

"Um.... Well see things in my time haven't been going to well and my best friend Hermione has a time turner so I just sort of, turned it a few times... Ended up here."

"Hermione? Like Helen of Troy's daughter?"

He shrugged, "Maybe."

"Well, you can go back then, just use the time turner."

"That's the problem, I kinda lost it..."

I couldn't help it. I laughed. "You lost it? How'd you manage that?"

"Dropped it somewhere in time."

"So what's going on in the future?"

"Nothing good."

"Oh. Um, about what happened in potions..."

"Yeah? What about it?"

"Well, James' potion thingy said that I was..."

Harry looked amused.

Not what I expected. Hell, I'm surprised he's still talking to me. I mean if I found out that my mother wasn't my father's true love... Well I'm not sure what I would do, but I wouldn't sit down to tea with my father's lover, that's for sure.

No, we're not drinking tea. But you get the picture.

"Don't the two of you have a date soon?"

"Yeah, next weekend."

"Cool."

Cool? What's happening here? I'm confused. I'm really confused.

"So um, have you meet your mother yet? I mean in this time."

"Yeah, she's great." He smiles in that way where you can tell the person is trying not to laugh.

He's trying not to laugh. At me. I'm thinking back and in the last few minutes I don't think I've done anything remotely funny...

"Do I have food in my teeth or something?"

"What?"

"You're about to laugh and I haven't said anything remotely funny. I mean seriously, do I have something in my teeth?"

He's no longer trying not to laugh. He's laughing so hard he looks like he's about to wet himself.

"I don't know what morals your parents raised you will but it's not nice to lie or laugh when someone is being dead serious!" I'm standing by this point and extremely pissed off. "Good night Harry Potter." And I stomp off.

What a rude little bugger. Just like James. How dare he laugh at me?

I study my reflection in the mirror.

No food is stuck in my teeth, I don't have any stray zits...

What the bloody hell was he laughing at???

"Rachel! Come on!"

"No!"

"This is ridiculous! You can not just stayed locked up in our dorm for the rest of your life!"

"Yes, I can!"

"Just talk to him! It won't kill you!"

"He barfed Lily! Up chucked! Puked! Vomited! Tossed his cookies! The very thought that he's supposed to be with me makes him sick!"

"You forgot threw up." I mumbled.

"What?!?"

"Never mind, the fact is you can't just avoid him forever."

"I can and I will."

"He's more embarrassed than you are."

Rachel shot me a look.

"Okay, so he's not embarrassed at all and is acting like it never happened. He'll probably just go on ignoring you like before."

"Are you trying to make me feel better or does it just come natural for you?" she said sarcastically.

"You know what? Fine. Spend the rest of the year locked up here but don't expect me to waste my year with you." and with that I turned around and stomped out of there.

Now there's something you need to know about Rach and me. We never fight, I mean never. Once and awhile we'll snap at each other but then five minutes later we laugh about it. So this was a big deal. Just F.Y.I.

There was only one problem with this little exit of mine.

While lots of people like me I have no other friends. Everyone else is just an acquaintance. So when I reached the common room I had no where to go and nothing to do.

I'd finished all my homework. The book I was in the middle of was up in the dorm. I had no head girl duties to do.

"Well this is just great," I muttered to my self.

I walked out of the common room and started wandering the halls looking for something to do.

"Well, well, well what do we have here? A little mudblood wandering the halls all by her lonesome."

"Lucious, dear, just the person I was looking for!"

"Huh?"

Hehehe, stupid git.

"I was wondering if I could volunteer for your cause!"

"Huh?"

"You were right all along. I am a stupid mudblood who doesn't deserve to be here at Hogwarts or anywhere in the magical community. I would like to be disposed of by your precious hand."

"What are you up to mudblood?" he asked suspiciously.

"Merlin Malfoy you are probably the dumbest prat I've ever had the misfortune of meeting." With that I sent at him a simple stunning spell which a first year could have dogged but he couldn't. He fell flat on the floor. I kicked him over so he was face up. "You are the model example of a dumb blond." I spit at him and walked away.

Author's note: Yes, that was a little out of character for Lily but she was mad and Malfoy deserved it. Thanks for all of you who have reviewed so far and for those of you who haven't Review! And there's no harm in reviewing twice, or three times. (Hint, hint)
