Title: Life's a Bitch
Chapter 13: Guardian Angel
"What do you mean?" Lily questioned.
Fettie sighed and took a deep breath, "Lily, there's something I have to tell you."
Lily looked at Fettie horrified.
"I'm sorry Lil's, but I'm not going to be here after this year."
"What-"
"Let me finish Lily. I'm leaving after this year and I'm not coming back for seventh. I have family business I must attend to. Once I leave, every trace of evidence of me is gone. My house, police records, everything. It's going to look like I never existed. The only thing left of me is going to be memory."
"But, where will you be going?"
"I don't know; and even if I knew I wouldn't be able to tell you."
"But you can't go. You still have school and everything."
"I know, I'm really sorry."
"You're sorry? Well thanks a lot Fettie, right now I need you and you're going to leave, just like that. You promised that you would stay with me-"
"Lily! I can't keep promises like those and you know it! Do you think I want to leave you? When I leave all I'm going to think about is are you still alive? Will your father come and get you and what's going to happen next? Think Lily, I want to be here with you! I can't stand the thought of leaving ever since I found out this year."
"So you knew all this time and you didn't tell me?"
"God- dammit! Lils get over that. I made a mistake ok? I'm always going to be here for you and with you, but your real protector is right in front of your eyes and you're just too blind to see it." Fettie's expression softened, "I'm always going to be here for you, but right now I have to do something that is going to protect you. Please believe me when I say I'm sorry and I can't stand the thought of leaving my best friend and like a sister behind."
Lily turned her back to Fettie and said, "Well Fettie, if this is what you want then go. Go away and never come back, but wait before you go erase my memory. I don't want to know you and I'm sorry that do know you."
Lily ran out of the training room and leaving Fettie alone. Fettie broke down and cried, whispering her apologies. Why does it have to be this way? Why do I have to be what I am? I've broke so many hearts this time around; I don't deserve to be Lily's guardian angel.
~*~*~*~*~*~*Lily~*~*~*~*
Lily ran out of Hogwarts door, transformed in to a cockatoo and flew deep into the heart of the Forbidden Forest. Lily wasn't afraid of anything in the Forbidden Forest, most of the animals there know her, but not all like her; most do.
After a while of flying, Lily got tired, but didn't stop flying. Lily flew a little more and fell. She was just too tired and depressed to fly.
She fell to the floor and transformed back into a human. Lily crawled over to a tree and puts her back to it. Breathing heavily she sat there, staring ahead. Why do all the bad things have to happen to me? I need you to be here with me Fettie, please don't go. Lily thought as she broke down into tears.
She cried for a little while and then stopped. She stopped to think about what Fettie had told her. Lily sighed, stood up, transformed again and flew back to Hogwarts. Lily was outside for a couple of hours and she wanted to go to sleep.
Lily walked up to the door slowly, still not believing that her best friend, who she had known all her life would just desert here out of no- where especially at a time like this! She just couldn't believe it! She was startled out of her thoughts as she bumped into someone. "Sorry." James mumbled absentmindedly as he bumped into someone. "That's ok." the person muttered back in a strangely familiar voice. "Lily!" James said excitedly. "Umm, James!" James laughed and relaxed. James and all of his friends had been looking for Lily ever since she had disappeared hours ago. "Hey Lils, could I talk to you for a second?" James asked shyly.
"I'm not really in the mood for talking James." Lily answered, partly because she was depressed about Fettie, and partly because she didn't really want to give him advice on how to get that girl. "Please, it's serious!" James exclaimed. "What's wrong with him?" Lily asked worriedly. "Huh? Umm... Oh, no there's nothing wrong with Sirius, I said it's serious, you know S-E-R-I-O-U-S."
"Oh," Lily said sheepishly.
"But I'm not in the mood."
"Just for a second?" James pleaded.
"Ok, what do you want?" Lily asked, slightly annoyed.
James gulped, now was not the best time for her to be annoyed. "Umm I was, umm wondering if you would, errmm that is will you..." He stopped and suddenly leaned down to kiss her.
Lily was about to kiss back when she realized that she and her best friend are in a fight and she's here enjoying this. Lily pulled away and ran back to the castle.
James slammed his fist on his forehead, stupid, stupid, stupid; he thought. James walked over to a nearby tree and sat there, staring at the lake.
~As James sat there and stared at the lake, Fettie was walking back to the castle but then saw James sitting by the tree looking depressed. I'm going to do this for you Lily. ~
Fettie walked over to James and sat next to him. "What's up?"
"I just totally embarrassed myself in front of the girl that I like." James mumbled.
"Who do you like?"
"Lily Evans."
Fettie smiled and made James look at her straight in the face. "James, I know Lily likes you as much as you like her. Just give her some time and she'll come around. She's just going through something's in her life that she's having trouble accepting."
James looked straight into Fettie's face, "Is there anything I can do to help her?"
Fettie inwardly smirked, "Yeah, you could go and comfort her now. She's in really bad shape."
"Isn't that what you're supposed to do?"
"Yeah, but," Fettie sighed, "I'm the cause of the thing that she has to accept."
"Oh."
"Look James, just go and comfort Lily."
"I don't think she wants to talk to me right now."
"It doesn't matter; she needs you more than anybody."
James stood up and helped Fettie up. "Ok fine I'll go, but if she smacks me or runs away I'm going to get you."
The two smile and walk back to Hogwarts in silence.
When James and Fettie got to the stairs to the girls dormitories, Fettie started up the stairs but James stayed at the bottom. When Fettie noticed this she mentally smacked her forehead and headed back down the steps.
"Sorry I forgot that you're a guy."
James glared at Fettie while she laughed at him. "Fine come on." Fettie dragged James to a far wall. Fettie took out her wand and waved it over her head and a door appeared on the wall. James just stared at the wall like it was a lion. Fettie rolled her eyes, opened the door and dragged James through the tunnel that awaits them.
When Fettie reached the door to her dormitory, where Lily is, and opened the door and pushed James through.
"Wait what-." Too late James was already in the dorm.
Lily jerked her head to the door.
James turned bright red and smiled.
