Disclaimer: Blah, blah. You all know by now that I am not J.K. Rowling.
Because, if I was, I wouldn't be posting a FANfic about my own book on a
little website like this one. So, I am obviously not the brilliant mind who
created Harry Potter. Actually, I'm not a mind at all; I'm a person, for
the most part.

"James!" someone said quite loudly into James' ear. "James, wake up!"
"What the," James said, nearly cursing. He sat up in the hospital bed. "Lily?"
"No," said a gruff voice. From what James could tell, this person, who wasn't Lily, was very close to laughing. "Sorry to disappoint you mate, but it's Sirius, not your girlfriend."
"As much as I wish she was," said James with a sigh. "Lily isn't my girlfriend. But, she could be, if only she would realize how much she really likes me."
Sirius only shook his head. Poor mate was so desperate for Lily that he actually thought Lily liked him as much as he liked her. She might have liked him a little bit, but not nearly as much as James liked her. Sirius sighed.
"Well Prongs, Madam Mariah wanted me to wake you for your medicine," Sirius said grinning at James' disgusted face. "She says you can get out of here as soon as you take your medicine."
"You woke me up from a great dream," James said disdainfully. "Only to tell me that I have to take my medicines before I can get out of this boring place."
Sirius laughed. But, he had to agree with James. Who would want to take that disgusting purple liquid junk that Madam Mariah made? Like it would actually help. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lily was sitting alone, in her favorite thinking place. She enjoyed having some alone time. She had left Asher back in the common room so that she could have a little bit of peace before James got out of the hospital wing. She was waiting regretfully until it happened, because then James would go back to begin his old self again, teasing and taunting her, then asking her for a date.
Lily's thinking space was a small clearing in the Forbidden Forest. There were trees circled around a small clear space. There was also a log that was right in the middle of it all. It wasn't very far into the forest, because Lily was too afraid to go too far in the forest. There were too many things that could harm her for one thing, and for another, she didn't want to get into trouble.
She suddenly heard a loud noise, like something coming crashing through the forest. Lily didn't want to find out what this was, coming right at her, so she got up, gathered up her books, and ran quickly out of the forest.
When she got into the Gryffindor common room, there were girls cooing in the middle of the room. There were people crowded around in a huge circle, marveling at something. Lily got closer and tried to see what they were finding so interesting, but she couldn't see. She stood on her tiptoes, but still couldn't see.
She began to wobble uncertainly. She fell and hit the ground, hard. A few people turned around and laughed, but no one rushed to help her up. She hadn't expected them to. She stood up by herself and dusted herself off.
As Lily began to try and fight her way through the crowd of Gryffindors, she continued to wonder what the center of attention was. She soon found out when she ran right into him.
"Excuse me," Lily said roughly as someone blocked her way to the girl's dormitories. "Ouch!" Lily cringed as someone else stepped on her foot.
As Lily was staring at the ground, trying to avoid being stepped on again, she ran right into something. Or, more accurately, she ran into someone. Again, she fell onto her butt on the floor. She was getting tired of falling quickly.
"Oh, sorry," someone said above her. Lily guessed it was the someone that had knocked her over. "Lils! Hi!"
A hand reached down and offered to help her up. That was odd, since no one ever offered to help her up. She took the hand happily, and they helped her up. She was about to thank whomever it was who helped, but then she saw who it was. She should have known when they called her "Lils."
"James! You're the center of attention?" Lily said incredulously. She realized only too late what she said. She blushed nearly as bright as her hair color.
"Just remember, you said it, not me," James said with a laugh. "What's going on with you?"
"Nothing, Potter. Now if you'll excuse me, I have homework that I need to get done," Lily said. She was trying to get away from him as soon as she could. She had a headache, and James wasn't making it any better.
"Why don't you stay down here for the party?" James asked hopefully. "We're celebrating my getting out of that horrible place!"
"Did you not hear me, Potter? I have homework to get done. And why would I want to celebrate someone as arrogant and self centered as you?" Lily snapped. "And it's called the 'hospital wing'. I can definitely believe that it was your HEAD that got hit."
"Why do you always do homework, Lils?" James called after Lily. He was staring at her retreating back. "Don't you have any friends to hang out with?"
"What?" Lily snapped, whipping around to face James. Her temper was getting the best of her again.
"You know, 'friends'," James said walking as close as he dared to get to an angry Lily, which wasn't too much closer than he had already gotten. "People who you like to talk to, who like to talk to you, people who enjoy being around you. Like all these people around me."
Lily looked murderous. But, she also looked hurt, but only for about a second. She walked right up to James and stared into his face. An angry Lily isn't one to mess with, and James knew that from personal experience.
James winced because he thought she was going to slap him again, and he was right. Lily slapped him right across the cheek, hard and fast. He'd never been hit as hard as he had been right then. And he still had this bad feeling that Lily could still hit harder, a lot harder.
All of the people around the two stopped talking. They started to whisper to the others who didn't know that Lily had hit James. Soon, everyone in the common room had stopped talking completely. It was dead quiet. Lily was glaring daggers at James, who was shocked beyond reason.
Lily was breathing deeply and waiting for a response from James. When she didn't get one, she gave him one last glare and walked off to the girl's dormitories. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Author's Note: Well, here it is. Lily flew off the handle again. I got some reviews from people that said they liked it when Lily got angry, and honestly, I like to write about Lily when she gets mad. I'll try and update again soon, as I don't like to be kept waiting, and I'm sure you don't like to be either. I'm sorry this chapter isn't as good as it should be, but I've been very stressed over my three nephews and eldest sister being here for the holidays.
