Fun in the Sun
This is what happened when Lily returned from James, Sirius and Snape. (After Harry got pulled out of the Pensive of Snapes Worse Memory) It's summer and their exams are almost over. YAY!
"Uhhhhhhhhh . . . . That stupid git, those stupid gits" screamed Lily as she returned to the group of girls by the lakes edge. By the way she was talking about Snape, Sirius and mainly James. Dipping their feet in the lake were Lily's friends.
Emmeline Vance was the prettiest girl in 5th year and was by far the prettiest girl in their group, she had straight waist long blonde hair with a fringe covering her forehead. She made most boys stare uncontrollably when she walked past. The perky one of the group was Isabella Johnson a very curvy brunette with eyes as wide as the full moon. Then there was Rebeccah Reynolds the optimistic and studious one of them all. She was rather tanned and had short, dark brown hair just falling beneath her ears. Although she didn't have any admirers in their house (Gryffindor), the whole of the male population in Ravenclaw were absolutely in love with her. Finally there was Lily Evans the thick haired red head with beautiful green eyes. She was kind, responsible and the total opposite to James Potter. She was a prefect.
"Lil, you really should calm down and relax" suggested her best friend Rebeccah, as she watched Lily ripping the grass from beneath her fingertips, "Come on! We've only got one more O.W.L to do."
"He did it again" moaned Lily as she hid her head in her hands.
"He did what again? Pick on Snape again . . . OR" said Emmeline pausing for a second to stifle her giggles "Ask you to go out with him?"
The 3 girls laughed uncontrollably, she lifted her head to scowl at them, but instead of scowling at her friends she joined in with them.
"You're right Beccah. I think I do need to relax" she said, but she was really thinking "I need forget about James. I should forget about how he makes me feel like screaming everytime I see him. Not screaming in a good way, but a bad way. And how stupid he looks when he does his stupid hair thing, and the stupid snitch thing, stupid stupid…"
"Yay!" yelped Isabella. "But Lils, what are we going to do?"
"Well Bella, we are going to go for a swim in the lake?" she explained as she was taking off her robes.
"W-what?" stammered out a confused looking Emmeline.
"Come on Em, all of you. If none of you follow me I guess I'll just have to relax with the giant squid?" as she pronounced the word squid she slipped into the lake, then dipped her thick red hair into the cool lake.
"Well I guess it was my idea. What the hell" she yelled as she jumped in after Lily.
Em and Bella followed Beccah's example and jumped in.
The attention that was on Sirius, James and Snape was drawn away by the giggles, splashing and yelling coming from the lake. People were now gathering around the edge of the lake watching and joining in on the fun that should be spent in ones youth. Students, including James and Sirius, began jumping in and enjoying the warmth of the sun and the coolness of the lake. The rest of the day was full of laughter, flirting and water fights. Lily had a strange feeling someone kept stealing glances at her. She was right. James had been glancing at her, but everytime she looked back he would always swim to the closest girl and make them giggle. Obviously he was quite irresistible to everyone except Lily.
James and Sirius would play the odd trick now and again, you know the usual. They hexed a few Slytherins legs trying to drown them and bewitched some water to keep swirling around some 7th years, but stopped when Lily and Beccah accidentally kneed them in their private parts. They had been eyeing the two girls for 5 minutes and the girls knew what that meant. They were next. So they did what they did. Sirius and James left after that but before departing they gathered up Lily and Beccah's belongings and ran off unnoticed to the common room.
When everyone was tired and starting to shiver they returned to the banks of the lake. It seemed that all of Lily's and Beccah's belongings had disappeared so they were left to walk through the castle to Gryffindor tower in soaking shirts and skirts. It was an awful feeling.
