Ch.9 Reminiscence and Yelling
Flash forward 7 years. At the moment you'll find a now 17-year-old Lily in her bedroom, packing the rest of her trunk for her seventh, and final year at Hogwarts.
Lily sat on her bedroom floor, packing up the rest of her trunk for Hogwarts. She was almost done, and it was late, almost midnight. Her parents were asleep and so was Petunia. Petty never did accept the fact that her sister was a witch, and hadn't spoken to her since the day Lily left for her first term at Hogwarts.
The group was now closer than ever, with the exception of Peter. Lily was almost disappointed that this was her last year; she knew how much she would miss Hogwarts. For the past seven years, Hogwarts had felt more like her home than her home did.
She had grown into a beautiful young woman over the last seven years. Her long auburn hair reached her waist now, and she always left it down. She was still thin, but she had grown much taller. Still James and Sirius were a good 4 inches taller than her. Ahhhh...James...she loved him. It was a simple as that. When you spend six years with someone like James, it's hard not to fall for him. Of course, she never told anyone, although, she thought Carly might suspect it. Lily knew the exact time when she fell for him. When he had kissed her after the prank they played on Malfoy and Snape. And then she'd lied to him about how she felt because she was afraid he'd stop being friends with her.
Carly, Lily knew was still, after seven long years, crushing on Remus. Even though Carly, like Lily, kept it to herself, Lily knew. Just by the look of Carly's face whenever Remus was around. How her eyes sparkled and how no matter what mood she'd been in before Remus entered the room, she'd always be happy when he was there.
After glancing at the clock, and realizing she'd been thinking for almost an hour, as it was almost one in the morning, Lily decided it was time for bed. She slipped into her silky blue pajamas and got into bed.
As she pulled the covers over herself, and listened to the soft breeze outside her bedroom window, she couldn't ignore the feeling that somehow, this year would be.different.
*At James's House*
"OF COURSE YOU'LL JOIN THE DARK SIDE! WHY WOULDN'T YOU?" screamed James's father, angrily.
"Because I don't believe that any good will come from being on the Dark Side. I will never join Voldemort. I would die before I did. I happen to be a descent person with descent friends." replied James calmly.
"YOU WILL NOT TALK BACK TO ME LIKE THAT, YOUNG MAN!"
"Fine! How about I don't talk to you at all? I'm leaving," and with that James stalked up to his bedroom. He slammed his trunk shut, shrunk it and put it in his pocket. As he threw his Invisibility cloak over himself, and jumped on his broom, his father came up the stairs yelling.
"FINE, RUN! AND MAY THE DARK LORD BE THE DEATH OF YOU!" But James didn't hear him, as he had already vanished into the dark night sky faster than lightning.
A/N: Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed! I'm hoping to get 5 reviews for every chapter, and remember, every review counts!
