PadfootOldBuddyOldPal: Thank you!! Actually, I'm NOT british..haha! I've been to london though...I'm American (God Bless the USA). I'm pleased though that I write somewhat British. I'm trying to read my work, and see how I get the British in...hmm...i dunno. Maybe I do...it's from reading JK Rowling, I think. And I try to make it sound British anyways, since you know, Harry Potter is set in Europe (Particularly London...since we don't know where Hogwarts is). Thanks for reviewing!!

Lily's condition was stable; but she wouldn't be able to attend classes for another 2 days. Madam Pomfrey had denied all students of visiting Ms. Evans with the exception of her 6 closest friends, whom Lily had wanted to see.
Janelle had been expelled from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Dumbledore had been absolutely furious; and to make Dumbledore mad, you had to have done something extremely uncivil and horrible. It also didn't hurt that Lily Evans was Head Girl plus one of Dumbledore's favorite students.
Meanwhile, rumors and gossip spread like wildfire around the campus, as Lily was very respected, loved, and Head Girl. Thousands of gifts were showered by Lily's hospital wing bed. James waited anxiously for one of Lily's friends to return from their visit with Lily. As soon as Liesl appeared from seeing Lily, James attacked her.
"Geroff, James! What's the matter with you?" Liesl asked, brushing the dust off her robes.
"How's Lily?" James asked anxiously.
"She's fine. She's fine, James. Trust me...she's fine." Liesl repeated.
"So she's ok?" James asked.
Liesl bit her lip. "She's fine, James. But I can't say the same for you,"
James bunched up his eyebrows in confusion. "Come again?"
"She uhh, really hates you James," Liesl said sweetly. But it was no sweet matter.
James muttered an "oh" and stared at her. "Well, if she hates me, then she hates me. Nothing I can do about it, right?" James tried to smile. "Right," James muttered.
James stepped out of Liesl's vision and sat down on the sofa. Liesl followed him and said sympathetically, "James, there's still hope,"
"What hope is that?" James scoffed. "By some miracle..."
Liesl had to admit; there was no hope left for James. The way Lily rattled on about how much she hated him. Liesl sighed.
"Did she get all the gifts I sent her?" James asked suddenly.
"Err...actually, she did. She umm, requests that you take them back. If you don't, she'll throw them away,"
"Fine. I'll umm...I'll take them back when she gets back," James said glumly.

"Lily looks great, doesn't she? She's been in a really good mood all morning," Peter said, as the Marauders watched her laugh and smile in potions. ("She's bugging me. Who the hell actually smiles, or laughs, in potions?" Sirius said moodily)
"She seems better," James said stiffly.
"You haven't talked to her yet, James?" Remus asked quietly.
"She doesn't want to talk to me," James said shortly.
"Have you even tried to talk to her?" Remus asked.
"She doesn't want to talk to me," James repeated.
"She's watching you, James," Sirius hinted. James moved his eyes slowly, and sure enough, Lily's green eyes were watching him.
"This is your chance, buddy," Sirius said. "Go talk to her!"
Maybe Lily didn't hate him. Maybe her friends had convinced her that it wasn't all his fault. Maybe, maybe a miracle happened...and she just forgot about the whole thing. James approached Lily's cauldron, which she was sharing with Felicia, and cleared his throat.
"Hi, Lily," James said.
"May I help you, Potter?" Lily's voice was cold. James felt an inch tall.
"Umm, actually, yes. I was wondering how you were feeling,"
"I don't think that's any of your business, do you?" Lily asked, stirring the cauldron. Felicia gave James an apologetic look.
"Err, no it's not. Sorry to have bothered you," James apologized, turning his back to Lily and Felicia.
"When are you going to take your gifts back?" Lily asked loudly, stealing the attention of a couple students.
James turned around and replied, "Anytime you want, dear," James said sarcastically.
Felicia groaned; James and Lily had returned to their defensive sides, before this whole thing started. Before they truly fell in love.
"All right, darling," Lily gritted through her teeth, "Meet me in the Common Room tonight. 9' o clock sharp,"
"I'll be there," James promised as he turned and headed to his cauldron.

A/N: I know it's short, but I hope you enjoyed it anyways! ALthough Chapter 10 is already written and proof-read, I'm not going to release it right away. Mainly because I've been having so much writer's block with the chapters after it. So, I ask for your patience...BUT, if too many reviews (there can never be too many reviews) come in, I might post it. If I do, please beware that it might be a while until Chapter 11 is released. Thanks, and please review!!
