"Leave me alone! Go away!" Lily shouted. She began whimpering. "Please, please, leave me alone. Why me, why me?"

"I chose you, Lily, i chose you." He said softly. "Because you are-"

"Lily!" A voice was yelling.

Lily could hear it louder and louder.

"Lily!"

Lily opened her eyes and she saw him. "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" She screamed, genuinely scared. She pushed him away from her and got out of bed, cowering in the corner of her room. Haunting her waking hours wasn't enough? Now he had to haunt her dreams?

"Potter?" Lily said questioningly, as James got up from the floor, rubbing his elbow.

"Are you okay?"

Lily glared at him. "I'm fucking fine, okay? Now get out of my room. I never, ever, ever want to see you again James Potter. Do you understand? I am going to go up and see Dumbledore right now and tell him that i don't want to be Head anymore. That I'm leaving Hogwarts. And i never again want to see you Potter." Lily got up to leave, but James stopped her.

"You can't just leave!"

"Watch me," Lily said, leaving the room.

Lily marched straight to Dumbledore's office, still in her purple ducky pyjamas.

"Professor Dumbledore? May i see you?" She said to the statue guarding the office.

The door opened and Lily walked in, taking a seat across from Dumbledore. He sighed at her.

"Professor," Lily began. "I've been giving it very careful consideration for a while, now, and i think that the best thing for me to do is to leave Hogwarts."

Dumbledore nodded at her briefly. "And what are your reasons for this, Lily?"

"I don't belong here, Du-Professor."

"And where do you belong, pray tell?"

"I belong with my muggle friend Jenni."

"Jenni. Jenni Adams?"

Lily nodded.

"Jenni Adams the drug addict and crimminal?"

Lily nodded.

"And you are going to take a similar path? Lily, i cannot allow you to leave."

"But, you don't understand, Professor. I – I can't stay here. I can't keep it up, all the time, encouraging everyone because they have 'boy' or 'girl' troubles, while I'm just fighting to stay alive every single day of the week, Professor."

"Why don't you talk to someone, Lily?"

"But who? I can't talk to anyone. The only person I can talk to is Jenni, and she's miles away."

"Try your luck on Potter," Dumbledore suggested, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.

"Potter? Excuse me, Professor, but are you INSANE?"

"You may be surprised, Lily. But whatever you chose to do, i cannot allow you to leave the school."

"May I take the day off classes?"

Dumbledore paused. "Yes. You may."

Lily lay on her bed, crying, when she heard people entering the dorm. She crept to her bedroom door and looked out. It was James and Cass. And they were doing it again. Her heart felt like it would tear in two. But why? Maybe, just maybe, she forced herself to realise; she had feelings for James Potter. Lily closed her door silently and got out her knife. The knife she had used last time. She clenched her teeth as she felt it pierce the thin skin of her wrist. She watched the blood slowly form in droplets, then watched as it began gushing out. She felt light-headed and fell to the ground, hitting her head on the side of the bed as she did so.

"What was that?" James said, breaking away from Cass.

"What?" Cass murmured, pulling him to her.

But James was unsettled. He got up and walked down the hallway. He noticed Lily's door was closed.

"Evans?" James said softly, knocking on the door.

No abuse came torrenting out, so James opened the door.

"SHITE!" He yelled. "Cass! Get Madame Pomphrey! Quickly!" He ran over to Lily and began wrapping a piece of material around her wrist to stop the blood flow.

"Lily!" He said. "Lily? Can you hear me?"

There was no response.

"Oh, Merlin, Lily, please be okay. Please, please, be okay."

Madame Pomphrey and Cass burst in and Madame Pomphrey took over. They took Lily down to the hospital wing and Madame Pomphrey fixed up her bleeding wrist, but Lily was still unconscious. James sat with her for the rest of the day, as Cass and Dana came and went. Finally, at 10pm, James was told to leave, and after a slight protest, he did.
