Chapter fifteen
Lily was sat in the empty charms classroom trying to catching up on some of the work she'd missed. Carla had been helping her but Lily had sent her to breakfast.
Looking at her watch Lily put her books away and headed off to the library.
James was at a table in the library reading from a huge book, he noticed Lily come in but didn't stop working."You in a better mood yet?" asked Catherine James' little sister.
"Yeah sorry about the other day sis" James said looking up at his little sister.
"It's ok " she said.
"Anyway what are you doing here, this is a library" she said laughing sitting down next to him.
"Oh very funny, I have to study sometimes" James said.
"Really and there was me thinking you knew everything" Catty replied sarcastically, James rolled his eyes.
"You're not acting yourself, normally you would have a go at me for saying something like that" Catty remarked.
"Maybe I don't feel like having a go at you" he replied.
"That seems unlikely, so what wrong?" she asked.
"You wouldn't understand" He said looking back at the book.
"Try me!" She said.
"Fine, what would you do if someone you thought was your friend did something you didn't agree with and wanted nothing to do with?" He asked.
"What's Sirius done now?" asked Catty.
"No it's not Sirius" James replied.
"Well it really depends on what the person had done and who the person was" She said.
Lily watched James as he sat talking to his sister.
"You've been staring at him for the past ten minutes" Carla whispered to her.
"I didn't know you were there" Lily said.
"That was obvious" replied Carla, Lily looked at her.
"Go and talk to him" Carla said.
"He's made it perfectly clear that he doesn't want to talk to me" Lily muttered.
"He will come round" Carla said.
"I wouldn't be so sure, he didn't even let me tell him the whole story" Lily said taking a book off the self.
"So are you going to the dance?" asked Carla as they walked back towards the Gryffindor common room.
"OH! I'd forgotten all about that, when is it?" Lily asked.
"Two days time" Replied Carla.
"Great! to add on to everything else I've got to think about, now I have to get a date for Saturday" Lily muttered.
"Hi James, Catty" Sirius said walking over to them.
"Hi Sirius" Catty said.
"I'll see you later James" she said and left.
"Was it something I said?" he called after her grinning.
"No Sirius it was your mere presences" She said Flashing a smile before walking off.
"Anyway you got you're date sorted yet?" asked Sirius.
"No I haven't really thought about it" James replied.
"So I'm going to win the bet then am I" Sirius said grinning.
"Would you let me call the bet off?" asked James.
"No way not at this late stage and especially not when I'm going to win" Replied Sirius Happily.
"Fine but I'm not going to let you win" James said standing up.
"I didn't expect you to" Sirius said very quietly as James left.
Lily and Carla were sat in front of the fire.
"Hi guys" Said Olivia bounding over to them.
"Hi Liv, what are you so happy about?" asked Lily.
"Do I need a reason to be happy" Said Liv sitting down with them.
"YES" replied Lily and Carla.
"Well Lily's back and I'm looking forward to the dance on Saturday" Liv said.
"Did you have to mention that" Muttered Lily.
"Oh aren't you looking forward to it?" asked Liv.
"No I'm not" said Lily.
"Liv we have to go" Said Carla suddenly.
"Why I only just got here" Said Liv sounding confused.
"Well I need you to come and look at my outfit for Saturday" Carla said grabbing hold of Liv's arm and pulling her towards the dorm.
"Should I come?" asked Lily.
"No you stay there, we'll be back in a bit" Said Carla and disappeared up the stairs.
That's odd thought Lily they would normally want me to go with them.
"Lily can I talk to you?" asked a voice. Lily looked up.
"Yeah sit down" she said.
"I thought that you would at least shout at me" he said.
" That would be a waste of my energy" she replied very coldly.
"Ouch I should have expected that" he said his voice sounded very clam.
"Why are you here you made your point the other day?" she asked.
James paused "I just realized that I was wrong" he replied.
"Yeah like you'd ever admit to being wrong" she remarked still coldly.
"Look I've said I was wrong to act like that, what more do you want?" he asked.
"I wanted you to listen to me but you didn't, give me one reason why I should care what you've got to say now?" Lily asked her voice rising slightly.
"I want to listen now" James muttered looking at the floor.
"Yeah well now's a bit late" she said getting up.
"Wait!" He said and got hold of her arm.
" What?" Lily asked coldly.
"I'm sorry, I overreacted before" He said sincerely.
"Yeah you did" was the reply.
"I can't keep saying sorry, Please sit down people are starting to look at us" he whispered. Lily sat down but it didn't look like James had much chance of her accepting his apology.
"Why did you react like that?" she asked quietly.
"I guess I thought I knew you and I didn't think you would ever do anything like that so when you said that you were a Death Eater, I realized I didn't really know you if you could do something like that." James replied.
"But I only did it cause I had to, do you know I'm spying for Dumbledore?" she asked.
"Voldemort will kill you if he ever finds out" James commented very quietly.
"I know that but if I'd chose not to be a death eater I'd already be dead" She remarked calmly.
"Aren't you scared?" he asked.
"I'm petrified" she admitted.
"I would be too" he muttered.
"Thanks that don't really help but at least I know you'd be scared too" she said.
"Sorry but I've got to go I promised to help Sirius with one of his mad plans" said James getting up.
"Bye" she muttered.
