Tanya J. Potter: Thank you! And the reason they are in Slytherin is
because of the connections which you will see in this Chapter.
Okay, so this Chapter.hmmm.I think it gives a lot of information on different subjects. Sorry 'bout taking so long!!! but here it is!
CHAPTER 8: DREAMS
The next day at breakfast Lily and Riley met just outside the Great Hall. Riley had promised to tell her what had happened, that Riley and Sirius had to talk bout at one in the morning.
"So, what happened between Sesha and Snape?" Lily asked.
""Well, you've noticed how Snape has changed?" Riley asked. Lily could remember all to well how she noticed the changes. After all she had made a fool of herself in front of him only a few days earlier.
"Yes" she simply replied.
"Well, he asked Sesha out. But he didn't look like he really wanted to. He looked forced to do so. Well, she must not have noticed his face because she said, well she said.yes." Riley tried so hard not to laugh, and Lily gasped.
"How could she say yes?!?" Lily was so shocked. "I mean we all despise him so much."
"Well, you would have gone out with him. I saw the look on your face." Riley smiled. Lily blushed.
"But I think I would notice if his face looked forced to ask me out." Lily said in her defense.
"True. Perhaps we should just go try and ask Sesha about it." Riley suggested.
"Sounds good." And the two walked off to find her.
~*~
When the two girls found Sesha she was sitting alone at the Slytherin table. Snape was no where to be seen. They figured that was good because then he wouldn't interrupt them in the middle of something, such as talking about why she was going out with him. They both took a seat on either side of her and Riley started the interrogation.
"So, Sesha, I heard you and Snape are now going steady." She said.
"Yes." Was all Sesha said.
"How is it going?" Lily asked.
"Good." Apparently Sesha wasn't going to open up, so it was time for plan B.
"Fine if you are going to be that way we will just be blunt with you. What is up?" Riley said.
"What do you mean what is up? The sky is up, the ceiling, people taller then me." Sesha replied, smiling.
"Ha ha. Very funny. Come on. You know as well as we do that you loathe Snape. Why are you going out with him?" Lily asked.
"How bad do you want to know?" Sesha started looking around, seeing if anyone who associated with Snape was around.
"Really bad. Now come on tell us!" Riley said.
"All right, fine. I heard him and Luscious talking the other day." She started. The other two stayed quiet waiting for her to go on. "I heard them saying that they wanted to get someone close to James and Sirius to stop them from pulling a prank on them. They knew I was good friends with you and you were good friends with James. They figured I could convince you to convince them to not do anything bad to them." Sesha stopped to take a breath and then continued. "And in Potions when you made a fool of yourself in front of them, I knew it might work. So I knew I had to take action. When Snape asked me to be his boyfriend.," She noticed the two's faces and said, " and yes, I did notice the look of disgust on his face, I said yes. It was very hard for me not to laugh but what is one to do?" Sesha smiled.
"Oh. That explains a lot." Riley said. Lily just kind of sat there, she was looking at the Great Hall doors. She appeared to be in shock.
"Lily, earth to Lily." Riley said while Sesha waved her hand in front of her face.
"Huh? Oh, sorry. I thought I saw something. I guess since.well anyway. What were you saying?" Lily asked.
Riley and Sesha just laughed, Sesha of course had no idea what had happened to Lily, but laughed at her temporary spaced out moment. Riley was debating whether or not to tell Sesha what happened but decided that Lily would tell her when she was ready. Plus Riley was glad to see Lily thinking of something besides the death of her parents.
"Sesha had just finished explaining about her and Snape." Riley answered for her.
"Oh, I heard the beginning of it." Lily said, "Then I just started spacing out."
"Okay. Well, let's let Sesha continue with her plan." Riley suggested. Just at that moment the bell rang for classes.
"Dang't!" Lily exclaimed. She had wanted to hear the plan that Sesha had but now she would have to go to transfiguration. It's not that Lily didn't like transfiguration or Professor McGonagall she just wanted to hear what Sesha had to say.
~Later that night after dinner in the common room with the Marauder's~
"So when should we strike?" James asked.
"I think we "strike" tomorrow. I don't want to wait any longer to get revenge!" Sirius exclaimed.
"But we don't know their status. They are also planning something! I mean come on, don't tell me you haven't noticed the change in Snape." Remus added.
"That can't mean much." Peter said.
"Oh yes it can. If they could pull something like what they did to us off, then they can pull off anything." Remus explained.
"No, they can't. That was a lucky shot! I was under a lot of stress at the time." Sirius was still extremely mad.
"Actually Remus has a point." James shook his head up and down.
"How? They are no good slime ball Slytherin's!" Sirius was now out of his seat.
"Sirius! Calm down! We need to think this out fully! Maybe we should bring in Lily." James pulled Sirius down onto the couch.
"Lily has enough going on in her life right now." Remus said quietly.
"True, but she also is good friends with certain Slytherin's." James smiled.
"Good point. Riley and Sesha are Slytherin's and usually knows what is going on." Remus agreed.
"Okay then. It is agreed we wait longer." James asked.
"Deal!" The other two said.
"Sirius?" James looked in his best friends direction.
"Oh, fine!"
~*~
That night Lily was extremely restless. She had finally fallen asleep around one or two in the morning, but she tossed and turned all night. Finally when she stopped moving she had a dream:
[I]There stood a man and a woman, who they were Lily couldn't tell. They seemed to be waiting for something. She wasn't sure what they could be waiting for. The house they were in was as empty as anything. She decided while she was waiting for whatever they were waiting for to explore the room. The walls were painted a light green with yellow stripes. (Yuck!) There were paintings and pictures of people all over. They weren't moving so Lily knew this was a muggle home. If only she knew who the two people were. She figured she might as well ask them.
"Excuse me." She politely said. They two didn't move or acknowledge she said anything. She decided they must not have heard her. "Excuse me!" She said a little louder. They still made no movement or any way to let her know they knew she was there. She figured this was some kind of dream, and so no one could really see her. Come to think of it, Lily noticed she couldn't really see herself either. So she just stood and waited.
About five minutes later whatever the couple was waiting for must have happened or arrived because they started talking to each other. Lily couldn't really understand what they were saying, they were speaking in another language. It took Lily a while then she figured it out, they were speaking in Spanish. Lily tried to remember what little Spanish she knew. Which really was the bare minimum of how to survive in a Spanish environment. They were, "Where is the restroom" and "Is there a place to sleep" and things like that.
All of a sudden the two stopped talking and looked around. Lily looked around with them. She felt a gust of wind. It came from the door which she hadn't noticed before. In walked a figure in a cloak. Lily tried to see if she could see a face, but all she saw was blackness. The other two in the room just stood there, holding each other close. It was then Lily noticed who they were. It was.. [/I]
"Lily. Lily wake up." Sara was calling her name.
"I'm up, I'm up." Lily said groggily waving a hand around.
"Whatever you say. You've missed breakfast." Sara told her. Lily was certainly awake after this.
"What! I missed breakfast! Why didn't you get me up sooner?" Lily sat up and looked at her clock. It said 11:30 a.m.
"I figured you were tired. I thought you would wake up soon. When you didn't and James asked where you were I decided to come get you up." Sara said, backing away.
"Well, please don't let me sleep again. I need to be able to get up. Sleeping in is not an option." Lily's green eyes had fire in them. Sara didn't understand, the last time her eyes had been like that was when The Dark Lord had killed her aunt, and that was two years ago.
"Lily? Are you okay? Why are you all fired up like that. You only slept in an extra couple hours. Sleeping in never hurt anybody." Sara knew she had gone too far with the look Lily gave her.
"Sleeping in may not have hurt anyone but it sure can kill!" Lily yelled.
"Oh my gosh Lily! What are you [I]talking[/I] about? What happened?" Sara asked, taking a seat next to her on the bed.
"Do you know how my Aunt died? She was late for work because she slept in. On her way out the door she realized she forgot something. She went back inside for it and who was there? Lord Voldemort he was going to do something and she walked in on it, and [I]died[/I]!" Lily burst into tears. Sara didn't know what to do so she just sat there and held her. She knew it must be hard for Lily to have to remember that. But Sara also knew it was partly her fault for arguing with what Lily wanted to do with her life, such as not sleep in late.
~In the common room with the Marauder's~
"Where are they? Sara was supposed to get Lily up fifteen minutes ago!" James exclaimed. He couldn't understand what would be taking them so long.
"Calm down dude, they'll be down. They are probably making themselves all pretty." Sirius smirked.
"Lily isn't like that. Especially when she just wakes up." James told him.
"Well, look who knows so much!" Sirius laughed.
"I'm going to go check on them." James decided and stood up.
"Wo man. You don't want to walk in on anything." Sirius warned.
"I'll knock first." And James started walking up the stairs to where the sixth year girls' dorm was. He knocked on the door and waited. No one came. He put his ear to the door and heard muffled sobs. He decided to just walk in. Hoping no one was getting dressed. He opened the door slowly and there was Lily crying and Sara holding her looking confused.
"Sara? Lily? What happened?" James asked slowly.
"She's just having a bad crisis." Sara said. Lily had told her about her parents' death.
"Here. Move aside. I'll hold her." James walked over and motioned for Sara to move. Sara did and James scooped Lily up onto his lap. She was so tiny and frail. James just wanted to make it all better.
Lily looked up into James face and tried to smile. She was glad to be back in his arms, she always felt so safe. She didn't ever want to leave them. Lily surprised herself, at the beginning of fourth year she wanted absolutely nothing to do with James and his gang, but now she had NO idea what she would do without them.
"It's okay Lily, I'm here" James said in a soothing voice. Lily just nodded and lay her head on his arm. She felt like a little child in her daddy's lap. She was safe and warm, but knew the moment could not last forever. Then she remembered the last time she had sat on her daddy's lap.
[I] "Daddy hold me, please!" nine year old Lily Evans pleaded with her dad. She had just gotten back from school and the kids were picking on her again. She had accidentally ruined a sand castle some kids were making. It wasn't her fault she had gotten mad that they wouldn't let her join them and it just, blew up.
"Why hunny? What happened?" Anthony Evans, her father, asked.
"They made fun of me again!" the younger Lily started to cry. "I didn't mean to do it. They were telling me I couldn't play with them, and I got mad, and it blew up. I didn't mean to I didn't mean to!" she was crying so hard that she hiccupped with every other word.
"Oh hunny! That is awful! Come here." And Anthony held his daughter. She just cuddled up in his strong arms and fell asleep. That was the last time she had ever sat in her daddy's lap, and she would never be able to again.[/I]
"Lily. Lily are you awake?" James asked looking down at her. She came out of her day dream and sat up, she scooted off of James lap and just sat on her bed staring.
"Lily. Come on I thought we had took care of this." James said, still in a soft voice.
"We had. Do you know the last time I had sat in my dad's lap was when I was nine? Now I'm sixteen and I'll never get the chance again. I loved my daddy, and he was always there for me, same with my mum. Oh James I just don't understand!" Lily didn't cry this time. She just sat staring at the floor.
"I think it is time to go talk to Professor Dumbledore. I know he said to stay over Christmas Break, but maybe we can convince him to let you go home. I think you need to be with your family." James suggested. Lily just shook her head yes and he lead her to the Headmaster's office.
When they arrived at Dumbledore's office he was just sitting behind his desk as if waiting for the two of them. They both took a seat on the other side and waited a moment before either of them spoke.
"Professor Dumbledore, we have a favor to ask." James broke the silence.
"What is it?" Professor Dumbledore looked from one to the other as if thrying to read their minds.
"Could Lily go see her siblings next week?" James asked.
"I would have to check the status and where they are, but I will certainly try." Professor Dumbledore smiled.
"Thank you very much." Lily whispered [rule]
That night Lily had the dream again. It started out just the same, but got further into it.
[I]The other two in the room jus stood there, holding each other close. It was then Lily noticed who they were. It was her mum and dad. But now how she knew them. They were much younger, Lily thought it was when thy only had Petunia and her.
Lily tried to figure out who was under the cloak, but didn't have time when he started speaking.
"You two need to come with me." He said
"We already told you our decision." Anthony replied.
"Ah, but I bet I can persuade you, I know about your little flower. Lily. [/I]
Lily woke up breathing very hard. She decided she better write down the dream before she forgot it. She looked at the clock when she finished writing it down. It was two o'clock in the morning. Lily needed to talk to someone, but she wasn't sure who. James was the only person she could think of. She didn't really want to wake him up, but could not think of another option.
She left her dormitory and walked down the stairs to the common Room. She looked around for a moment, debating with herself about whether or not she really wanted to wake him up. Lily figured there wasn't much more option so she started on her way up the stairs.
When she reached the door to the sixth year boys dormitory she stopped again. Now was the time to go back to her dorm if she wanted to. Lily slightly opened the door. She walked in very quietly. Tip-toeing to James bed Lily wondered what she would say.
"James" She whispered. "James wake up." Lily felt like a little girl wanting something from her parents, but was afraid to ask.
"Huh? What? James opened his eyes looking for the speaker.
"It's me Lily."
"Lily? what are you doing in here?" James was awaked now. He was sitting up looking at the outline of Lily. It was still too dark to see her fully.
"I need to talk to you."
Without another word, James stood up, took Lil by the hand and led her out the door to the common room.
"Okay spill." He said.
"I've had this dream two nights in a row, and I need someone's opinion on it. I couldn't think of anyone else to tell." She looked at James who didn't say anything. She figured he just wanted her to continue. "It takes place when I was no older than two..."And Lily told him all about it.
"Wow. I can't believe it! Who could it be?" James asked.
"That is what I couldn't figure it out. I never saw his face. I'm not even sure my parents knew who it was." Lily explained.
"Well, I am not totally sure what it could mean. It might have happened or might not have." James said.
"Do you think Professor Dumbledore would know?" Lily asked.
"Possibly. We could see him later today. Maybe after breakfast. Today is the start of Christmas break after all." James suggested.
"Okay sounds good."
Okay, so this Chapter.hmmm.I think it gives a lot of information on different subjects. Sorry 'bout taking so long!!! but here it is!

"Lily? what are you doing in here?" James was awaked now. He was sitting up looking at the outline of Lily. It was still too dark to see her fully.
"I need to talk to you."
Without another word, James stood up, took Lil by the hand and led her out the door to the common room.
"Okay spill." He said.
"I've had this dream two nights in a row, and I need someone's opinion on it. I couldn't think of anyone else to tell." She looked at James who didn't say anything. She figured he just wanted her to continue. "It takes place when I was no older than two..."And Lily told him all about it.
"Wow. I can't believe it! Who could it be?" James asked.
"That is what I couldn't figure it out. I never saw his face. I'm not even sure my parents knew who it was." Lily explained.
"Well, I am not totally sure what it could mean. It might have happened or might not have." James said.
"Do you think Professor Dumbledore would know?" Lily asked.
"Possibly. We could see him later today. Maybe after breakfast. Today is the start of Christmas break after all." James suggested.
"Okay sounds good."
