Chapter Five
If Looks Could Kill...........
For the third time on Friday (directly after the disastrous do-over) James looked up from his work to see Lily glaring at him murderously. He rolled his eyes and turned back to his homework. Would she just get over it already?
It was lunchtime and James had been forced to retreat to the library and complete his charms work that was due next period. Of course he wasn't worried- who would fail the magnificent James Potter? He had experienced a very peculiar feeling when he had walked into the library to see Lily sitting in a corner with a star chart spread out in front of her. His first reaction was happiness that she was there (for some reason, James liked being around Lily. Maybe it was just because it gave him an opportunity to annoy her, but sometimes, he just liked looking at her) and at the same time, he had felt very irritated that she was there. Wasn't it enough that he had to share a room with her? Did she have to follow him around? Technically, she was there first, but that wasn't the point. He had glared at her briefly before sitting down.
From then on, every time he had looked up, she had been glaring at him, only to stare mutinously back at her chart when he saw her. It was kind of...........disconcerting. He wasn't sure how to interpret it. Some of the looks even seemed to hold utter loathing, and he'd never gotten a look like that from a girl before. Just thinking about it made him want to shudder. So he turned his mind onto more pleasing things. Such as his new girlfriend, Elise Kinsley. She was hot. Very, very hot. He smiled. See, his mood was already brightening up!

Lily looked up in time to see that smile. 'Idiot,' she thought. 'He has no reason to be smiling.'
She couldn't believe how easily she seemed to have forgotten about wrecking her room. She had spent a couple of hours that night trying to undo the stupid charms sticking everything in place, but to no avail. Her room remained as horrendous as before. What was even more annoying was how easily her fellow girl inhabitants seemed to get over their dorms present state. Was she the only one who cared? Maybe she wasn't as forgiving, but would you forgive someone for doing that to your dorm? She glared at James again.
No. James Potter was going to pay for this one.
**
If Lily were like other people, she would have just played a prank on James ands gotten it over and done with. Instead, she decided to pretend he wasn't alive. She had noticed that James was one of those people who need attention. They like being acknowledged, and if they aren't, they get very annoyed, very quickly.
So she acted as if he didn't exist, and the results were almost instant.
"Lily," James acknowledged her upon entering the dorm. She was sprawled on her stomach on her bed. She calmly ignored him, and continued reading off a piece of parchment.
"Hellooooo.........Lily?" he said again, frowning. "Oi, I said hi."
Lily sighed and put the parchment away. She pulled out a magazine and began flicking through it.
"Oh, I get it," James said with a knowing smile, coming over to stand by the curtain. He put his hands on his hips. "You're still mad at me about the do over." He glanced around at the room, almost smiling at the posters on the wall. Genius, pure genius. No one else would have thought of those posters...........
Lily was still reading her magazine. She rolled her eyes at something written in it and turned the page calmly.
"Lily? You can't ignore me forever you know. I do live in the same room as you," James pointed out. He was beginning to get annoyed now. He waved a hand in front of her face. She patiently ignored it.
"Look, just get over it! It's not like your room is that bad anyway," he said. Lily made no sound, but rolled over onto her back and held the magazine up in front of her. "Lily! Come on, this isn't fair!" he looked at her plaintively.
"I'm sorry," he said that. It was a momentous moment, a step up in history! James Potter said that he was sorry! But, still, Lily made no show of hearing a word he said. "I'm sorry," he repeated. "Lily? Oh for gods sake!"
He yanked the magazine out of her hand and glared at her.
Silently, Lily sat up, her eyes blazing.
"Get lost, Potter," she said, her voice dangerously quiet.
With that she stalked out of the room. James frowned after her. What had just happened? For some reason, Lily ignoring him had almost hurt..........as if he actually cared about her in some small part of his being. He shook his head and trudged back to his bed. Someday, he would understand Evans. One day, he might even understand his feeling towards her.

A/N: well, well, well! I wonder what's happening here!! James obviously feels something for Lily, but does Lily feel anything for James? You know, I just make up these chapters randomly as I go along. This has no set plot (he he he). So, do you think we can try for.......15 reviews? A step up? Please? Ok, so fifteen reviews, and you can have the next chapter! Oh, and so sorry about how long it took for this chapter t get out!! Too much happening, and I know that's not a valid excuse!! So, please forgive me, and please review! Luv ~ Jaizar!
