Chapter 3: Shattered Hopes and Dreams.

"Oh my god James what are you doing?" Lily yelled in fear as she got up from the ground. What the hell was he doing? Lily thought to herself. If Lucius had spread a rumor about James she would most likely know about it. Unless James was just picking a fight for the hell of it. But he rarely does that.

Lily was interrupted from her thoughts when James was punched in the face and fell to the ground in front of Lily.

"Fuck" was all James could manage to say.

By now almost everyone in the great hall was coming out to see what was going on. Sirius and Remus were the first people to come out.

"Holy shit James....you okay man?" Sirius said walking over to him and pulling him up.

"What's going on?" Remus asked James as he helped Sirius pull him up.

"I'm going to kill Lucius!" James yelled. His nose was pouring blood and it looked like he was going to get a black eye.

"Oh really" The cold voice of Lucius Malfoy spoke.

"Looks like I just almost killed you"

"Oh yes cause you know a bloody nose and a black eye is just oh so close to death" Sirius said sarcastically half laughing at the fact that Lucius "thought" he kicked James' ass.

Lucius just gave one death glare to Sirius then grabbed Lily's hand and walked away in the opposite direction with her.

Lily was a bit scared. Lucius was walking very fast with a cold look on his face and his gripp on her hand was almost unbearable.

She kept walking with him and did not say a word. How could he possibly be mad at her for what James did? No, she wasn't going to get in trouble.

They came to a stop at the slytherin common room entrance. "Salazar slytherin" Lucius spoke stearnly to the cold wall and it slid open.

They both walked in, and went all they way up stairs to the boys dorm.

She hated it there. It was so cold and dark. At least the common room had a bit of light to it. Not much but their was still some. Way better then the boys dorm. So cold and hardly any light at all.

They walked in and almost right away Lily felt the cold hit her body.

"Sit" Lucius said staring at her.

"No thanks, I think ill stand." Lily shot back kind of harsh to him. But after everything he did to her, she really didn't give two shits.

"I said sit!" This time Lucius didn't wait for Lily to reply. He just pushed her and she ended up falling onto the bed.

For a second Lily was scared in what he was going to do. But he didn't sit down. He just sarted pasing the room and shot Lily glares from the corner of his eye.

"Please tell me you didn't think that James' attempt to kick your ass was my fault? She yelled at him totally shocked out of her mind.

" I wouldn't be surprised" He spoke coolly to her.

Lily was so furious that Lucius thought this was all her doing. She got up off the bed and walked over to him.

" Listen, I don't know why James tried to kick your ass just now ok? But maybe you brought it on yourself which I wouldn't be surprised. So you need to stop blaming other people for your stupid mistakes."

Lily crossed the line and Lucius' fist collided with her face and sent her flying into the wall across the room.

"You know, I'm beginning to think that James is having too much of an influence on you. And he's trying to get you to fall in love with him and I don't like it. Your other friends aren't helping either. I don't want you to talk to them anymore."

Lily couldn't believe what he was saying. Who the hell did he think he was, her father? It was like she got into the wrong crowd and now she was being told by her fathershe would not be able to hang around with them anymore or she would be grounded literally for the rest of her life or something.

"Incase you haven't realized Lucius, I'm not your daughter I'm your girlfriend. You can't tell me who to hang out with and who not to hang out with."

Lucius raised his fist again and Lily slowly backed away. He then lowered his hand but still glared at her with his cool eyes and had the evil look on his face that he always gave her when she talked back to him.

"You know I can just go tell everyone what the hell your doing to me and get you expelled!" She yelled.

"Let's not forget that if you tell anyone about what happens or what I do to you, I swear expelled or not I will kill Potter!"

Lucius had a twisted smile on his face that Lily didn't like. She knew she wouldn't win. And if she wanted to see the man she secretly loved alive, she would have to do what Lucius wanted until she could figure out what to do exactly.

"Now, here's how it's going to go. You do not say a word to any of your friends and if you must speak do not be nice."

Lucius walked over to Lily and kissed her cheek. Then he walked over to the door and opened it for her.

"Good luck" He smiled at her.

Lucius was very proud of himself. He managed to take that prat Potter's girlfriend away from him , and now when she wouldn't talk to him or her other friends it will be bound to drive Potter crazy.

Now Lucius knew that Lily was probably thinking that there would be no way he would be able to see if she talked to her friends when he wasn't around, but she was wrong.

Little did she know, Lucius had a mirror where he could just say a name and see whoever he wanted to and see where they were and what they were doing.

Lucius decided not to tell her about it and let her learn for herself. Besides when she made her first mistake she would know it.

Lily made her way back to the common room.

She couldn't believe how much Lucius had taken over her life. It was
like she didn't even have a life of her own anymore. He was always taking
control over it. And to think everyone thought she had it made being with
him. Well not her friends and especially not James. She wanted to be with
him so bad. But Lucius was there for her when she needed him.

You see Lily and James where a couple last year. They decided on the
last weekend before school started to go check out this new muggle bar.
That night she met Lucius. What he was doing there? She had no idea. They
became friends and talked at the bar while James "went to the washroom".
They went for a walk outside when they opened the door to find James
making out with Narcissa Black a 7th year slytherin.

Lily was very upset and broke it off with James. Lucius was there to
comfort her and he seemed like the perfect guy. She was just so hurt and
wanted someone to love her the way she "thought" James did so she and
Lucius hooked up. Then she found out what an asshole he really was.

Lily forgave James when he swore that Narcissa pulled him onto her and
started making out with him. But by that time it was too late to get
together with James. She was too deep in her relation ship with Lucius
and the abusing stage had just started, so she was to scared to leave
him. Now she was terrified to leave him after everything he threatened
her with.

Lily snapped out of her thoughts. She was sitting on her bed. She got
up and looked in the mirror by her bed and she had tears pouring down her
face.

"Snap out of it Lily" She told herself. "If you didn't get so pissed
at James and if you just gave him a chance to explain then you would
still be with him and Lucius would be out of the picture".

Lily opened her curtains and looked out the window and saw her friends
at the quidditch pitch watching the Gryffindor team practice.

She shut the curtains and walked over to the door and turned off the
light and crawled into bed.

It was only 8:30pm but she was tired and didn't want to be with
anyone at the moment.

She just let herself cry into the pillow not bothering to keep the
noise down.

She ended up crying herself to sleep and having terrible dreams of
Lucius killing James or her having a miserable life because she cut off
all contact with her friends when she married Lucius after school.

Lily realized that all of her hopes and dreams with James were all
shattered into tiny little pieces that could not be put back together
again.
