He ripped some cloth from his shirt and bound her wrists in an attempt to
stop the bleeding. James was flustered, nervous. No one had prepared him
for a sight like this. A bleeding girl lying on the ground near death
wasn't what a normal person had to deal with on a daily basis.
He did what any normal person would do, he rushed her to the hospital, or in this case, the infirmary. Immediately. Running in at top speed, he crashed into Madam Pomfrey. She took one look at the body in his arms, she gasped, "Oh my, how? She's such a nice girl, always so helpful. Why would she kill herself? The poor dear." (A/N:- They know her SO well don't they.)
James sighed and shook his head, looking at the nurse, he asked, "Can you help her?"
"Yeah." With that, she force fed Lily a potion before placing her on one of the beds.
James then went into the Head Dorm to get some things so he could sleep in next to Lily, (A/N: NOT LIKE THAT YOU PERVERTS! At least not yet.) when he entered the room, he saw two letters on her bed. One was addressed to him, the other to Professor Dumbledore.
Turning the envelope in his hand he opened the wax seal with a flick of his wrist, taking out the letter, he slowly read it.
Dear James, I know that since your reading this letter, I'm either dead, or I failed and you or a professor found me and brought me to the ward. If that's the case, I can't even die properly. I don't know why I'm writing to you in the first place, you've never done anything but humiliate and belittle me. Maybe it's because you're Head Boy or maybe it's because at least you noticed me. I don't know really, but I know this, if I'm dead, I leave my last painting to you. You'll find it in my trunk. Everything else goes to Professor Dumbledore. As fellow head, I apologize for all the inconvenience that I've caused everybody. I'm a waste of perfectly good oxygen and space, and I know it. Thank you for at least acknowledging my existence. For that much at least, I thank you. As for why I did what I did.life's just not worth living anymore. Treasure your friends James, they're very good to you. Friends are a precious commodity that should be held close to you. Being friendless is very boring, and let's not mention depressing.I should know. So, irregardless of what stupid things Sirius and Remus do, forgive them and remember that they'll do almost anything for you. As you would do for them. I realized I just dumped a lot of things on you but thanks for reading this anyway. I won't take much more of your precious time, I mean you must have much better things to do thank to listen to a freak ramble on and on so.
With thanks, Lily Evans
James hands were trembling, he didn't know why. It wasn't a particularly touching or sad letter, but the level of depth in those words conveyed a strong message to him, a strong stirring message. He was amazed at some of the things she said in that letter, he didn't know she could paint. Another thing was that, it took a lot of abuse and a fantastically low self-esteem to think like that. Those words stirred up a firm conviction in him, he would help Lily.
He'd do whatever it would take to make Lily feel better about herself and change her outlook on life. It wasn't much after six years of ignoring her and pranking her, but he would try his best to heal her wounds.
With new resolve, he took his pillow and glanced around the room and he noticed something strange, Lily's trunk wasn't in the room. This surprised him, as he thought that since that she was a fellow head, she would sleep there, but as he recalled the past few days, he realized that he, the marauders or/and the seventh year Gryffindors were always there, partying or planning something. There was never the chance for her to move it.
That made him feel very bad about himself. He always prided himself for noticing things, but he never noticed Lily or that. James picked up his pillow again and headed to the wards with a new focus in life, and that was Lily Evans.
Walking up to her bed, he pulled up a chair and placed the pillow on the bed. With that, he laid his head on the pillow and slept.
--------Meanwhile.in the Gryffindor Common Room-------
Sirius turned to Remus, "You know, Jamie has been gone for an awful long time now, and I miss Jamsie-poo." Unleashing his devastating puppy dog eyes at Remus, he continued, "We should look for him, we can't leave him alone can we?"
Remus tried to resist, but those damn puppy dog eyes got him every time. "Alright, we'll go to the Head's Dorm to look for him."
Sirius grinned and jumped up and down like a hyper little puppy (A/N: Or maybe a hyper Penny.yes Pen, I'm talking about you.) and dashed down the corridor to the dorm, leaving an exasperated Remus to follow him.
They opened the door with the password, malfunctioning dragon and entered the dorm they saw the letter left carelessly on the bed and of course, being the people they are, they read it. They were shocked, they always thought she had friends, didn't know who they were, but they thought she had friends. Realizing that the envelope was open, they hoped that someone (James) got to her in time.
After that shock, they came to the same conclusion as James, they would prove to her that life was worth living and to make the best of it. Feeling remorse for the prank they pulled the other day, they swore to the higher powers that they would make it up to her, no matter what.
They opened the toilet door and the amount of blood shocked them yet again, slightly relieved that they didn't see a body, they went to the wards as well, feeling that both James and Lily would be there.
The three of them would make her feel better about herself, they swore to that. They, the marauders would make Lily feel wanted. They would be her friends.
