Surely Lily hadn't heard what she thought she had. There was no way that James Potter could get over her! Plus, he couldn't stop liking her just when she realized that she had feelings for James too. Finally, Lily snapped out of her daze and looked around at the rest of the crew. They, too, seemed to not comprehend what James had said.
"You what?" Sirius asked after a one-minute silence.
"I have found someone else. Someone so awesome!" James sighed. "You guys ought to meet her. She's pretty cool." At this remark, Lily's head spun.
Sirius glanced over his shoulder and looked at the 6th year. "And she's not bad looking either," he said with one of those smirks he was famous for. Everyone groaned.
"That really is the way your mind thinks, isn't it Padfoot?" Peter asked.
"It's 7th year, and you've just figured that out? Thanks for really getting to know me Wormtail," Sirius said with sarcasm in his voice.
"Well, I mean... you know!?" Peter pleaded. Everyone laughed and then headed off to bed. Lily was glad of that. These thoughts about James being with someone else just killed her.
As Lily approached the stairs to the girls' dormitories, someone called her back. Lily turned to see Sirius jogging towards her; he had a look of caring in his eyes. "Are you ok, Lily, love?"
Lily tried to hide her pain. "Of course, Sirius. Why wouldn't I be?"
"Honestly, Lily. After our conversation in the library, do you really think that I wouldn't know the feelings you have for Prongs?" Sirius questioned.
"What? ...Well... I mean, was it that obvious?" Lily responded.
"Yeah, actually, it kind of was. But don't worry," he added, seeing the look on her face. "I'm sure no one knows except the genius that is me!" Lily forced a laugh. "Hey," Sirius said calmly. "This Melissa thing is just a phase that should pass soon. Don't worry, flower."
But how was she not to worry. She had just realized that she had feelings for a boy that had liked her for forever! And now he found someone else. Ugh, this blows Lily thought.
Once she reached the 7th year girls' dorms, she didn't feel like facing her friends. She was down in the dumps and realized it, but Sirius was the only one that knew her feelings for James. She really didn't feel like being questioned about it right now. She leaned her head against the door, thinking about another place to go. The only other place would be the common room, which was full of late night visitors. She wouldn't go back there. And then she heard something. Voices. Voices coming from her dorm room. She turned and placed her ear to the door.
"What? You think Lily looked like that because what?" Nicole's voice said.
"SH!" Lily recognized this voice as Candice's. "I said that maybe Lily's upset because James has moved on. Maybe she got some sort of happiness by knowing that James practically worshiped her. You know... like it gave her a 'James likes me so obviously I'm cool beans' feeling."
"No way, Candice," Grace's voice said. "You have Lily all wrong."
Lily silently thanked the other two girls for sticking up for her. She walked into the room, waiting to be bombarded with questions, but none came her way. She calmly walked over to Candice and stood before her. "Now," Lily said through clenched teeth. "Before you start jumping to conclusions about why I have a certain look on my face, you better ask me why I have that certain look on my face. And no, James does not give me a 'James likes me so obviously I'm cool beans' feeling. I thought you were my friend, Candice. True friends don't talk about their friends behind their backs. Could you have just asked me? Sure! I might not have answered you then, but you could have kept your thoughts to yourself, and sooner or later, I would have answered you."
Candice sat wide-eyed. "Lily" was all she managed to say before Lily stormed across the room, changed clothes, and got into bed. Bloody hell, this has been a day! Lily thought to herself.
Lily was so angry with Candice, sad about the James deal, and pissed off at the world, that it was 2 am before she finally drifted off to sleep. But her sleep wasn't peaceful either. As Lily's dream started, she was walking out of the Great Hall toward the Forbidden Forest. It was bright... like midday. She tried to turn herself around, but her feet kept going forward. She new that anything in that forest was bad news. The farther she walked, the darker the sky got around her. She soon had to feel her way around, because she could not see anything. Lily heard something off of the trail and started going toward it. She wanted to know what it was. She knew that it wasn't good, but she still wanted it. Lily came to a clearing and stopped, looking in all directions. Something in the corner of Lily's eye made her turn. She saw a man dressed in lengthy, flowing robes. He had a hood over his head, and all she could see were these red slits for eyes.
"Lily..." a cold voice said. Lily shivered.
"How... how... do... how do you know my name?" Lily asked.
"I know a lot about you Lily. And I know a lot about your future. And your posterity," the same voice said.
"Posterity? Like my children?" Lily asked.
The hooded man laughed. "Your child, you silly girl. Child. Would you like me to show you some of the things I know?"
"No," Lily said. "I think I'll just go now."
"DO NOT REFUSE WHAT LORD VOLDEMORT OFFERS YOU! You will see it anyway, just because you don't want to. You silly little mudblood!"
Lily heard the man utter some sort of spell, and Lily collapsed on her knees. Her mind spun as if it alone was traveling by Floo powder. Then Lily saw herself, but much older, holding a baby. A messy haired man yelled at her: "RUN! HE'S COMING!" She knows that voice! But then she was looking at someone unwrapping a turban. "Seize him!" yells the cold voice. Lily's mind spun again and she was looking upon a chamber of some sort. Two fairly young boys were standing there. One looked unmistakably like James. The other had the words 'I AM LORD VOLDERMORT' in front of him. Then again, the scene changed; Lily was looking at an old graveyard. A short, squatty, stuttering man said, "B-blood of the enemy... forcibly taken... you will...resurrect your foe." And the short man, dagger in hand, moved toward a boy tied to a headstone. Lily mind spun once more, and she was looking at what was the Ministry of Magic, and at the James look-alike and Lord Voldemort. Then she heard screaming.
Lily woke up and realized that the screaming was coming from her own mouth. The four other girls in the dormitory were all standing over her, looking extremely worried.
"Lily?" Nicole asked. "What are you screaming about?"
"I... I... I don't remember," Lily said.
"What?" asked Grace.
"I had some kind of a dream I guess... I don't remember what happened. All I know is that it wasn't good."
"Well, I'm glad you're ok, Lils," replied Arabella. "You scared us so badly!" At these words, everyone got back into bed. In about five minutes' time, Lily heard snoring and deep breathing all around her. She knew she was the last one awake.
As daylight crept in the window, Lily got up, dressed, and headed for breakfast. There was no one in the common room and there were only a few people in the Great Hall for breakfast, including the Marauders. When Lily walked in to the Hall, Remus called her over. "Seriously, Lily. You'll like this," he said to her.
"What?" Lily asked.
"Just wait for some Slytherins... you'll see."
Slytherins seemed to move in packs. It was like they were scared of every other House. Or maybe it was just the Marauders. Whatever. Anyway, as Lily watched the door for Slytherins, she felt eyes on her. She turned to look and saw James turn his head. Hm... she thought.
"AHA!" Sirius said. "Come on, through the door now, yes, good Slytherin!" At once, all of the Marauders started howling with laughter. As each of the Slytherins passed through the door, a neon sign appeared above their heads, each with a different insult. Some of these were "Bloody moron", "HUGE prat", and "Stupid, sulking wart-eater". It was obvious that none of the Slytherins could see the signs above each other's heads. By this time, everyone else in the hall had joined in with the laughter too. As everyone laughed and made more jokes at the Slytherins expense, Lily thought to herself. I have a feeling today will be better than it's predecessor.
