Chapter Seven
"Would you grace me with your presence at the Quidditch match today, Lily?" Lucius crooned as he sat down next to her in the Great Hall during lunch.
"I suppose so. Who's playing?" Lily responded nonchalantly while buttering a piece of toast.
"Griffindor versus Hufflepuff. Honestly, don't you pay attention?" Malfoy wondered aloud.
"I don't pay much attention to the game, that's all," Lily replied sounding sour.
"I'll stop by your room in about an hour. We can get there a bit early to find seats," Lucius concluded and left the Great Hall without a second glance.
Lucius was gazing intently at the intricate painting outside Lily's common room. It showed a Lioness sitting serenely with a Raven perched upon the Lioness's shoulder. He assumed that meant the two houses inside the rooms were getting along well. He snapped out of his contemplation when the Lioness let out a low growl to show her irritation at him.
"What do you want, boy?" the Lioness snarled at Malfoy who had taken a step away from the portrait as she stood up.
"Ooo—I believe this widdle boy is scaw-wed of you!" the raven cried mockingly.
"I'm just here to see Lily!" Lucius defended as he raised his wand threateningly.
"Of course you are, dear," the Lioness spoke evenly. "Surely you don't expect that dinky little wand to protect you—of course I don't see what you need protecting from, we won't hurt you. I only want to be sure that a slithering, sneaky little snake like you doesn't harm any of my little Lionesses."
"Hey!" Malfoy snapped, "I'm not a—a—whatever-you-said! Just get Lily! We'll be late for the match!"
"Ooo—the boys got a temper!" the raven pointed out obnoxiously. She received a snarl from the Lioness. "Very well. I'll go get her while you watch, blondie-bear, over here," with that, she flew back through the portrait and into another picture in Lily's room.
"Yes?" Lily asked as she finished putting on shimmering gold eye shadow.
"Blondie-bear's here to see you. He's quite the pill, isn't he?" the crow analyzed.
"He means well, and he is a nice boy, wants you get to know him..." Lily trailed off and walked towards the portrait door.
In the stands before the Quidditch game..."I want a clean game!" shouted Madame Hooch. "Three, two, one, GO!" She released the Quidditch balls into the air.
"The Quaffle is snatched up by James Potter! Tough luck, Hufflepuff!" Arthur Weasley beamed. "Potter—Longbottom—Potter—SCORE!"
"Stupid prat, Potter!" Lucius grumbled.
"As much as I hate him, he is a bravura Chaser," Lily sighed.
"All I can say, is that Hufflepuff had better get in there and settle the score. I couldn't stand it if Potter managed to scrape up another victory for the Griffindors," Malfoy said with disdain.
"I'm going to go to the lavatory," Lily told Malfoy and left the match. She was almost at her destination, when a voice called out to her.
"Li—il-lyyyy," the voice called, "this is your conscience—ouch! I stubbed my toe!"
"Huh?" Lily asked, no longer scared, but bored. "I didn't know my conscience was clumsy..." she mused.
"Of course I'm clumsy!" the voice said matter-of-factly. "Why else would I accidentally let you agree to dating a certain git, named Lucius Malfoy!"
"Who are you?" Lily asked suspiciously.
"Your con—sci—ence!" the voice sounded out for her.
"Of course," Lily said, rolling her eyes, "and I'm going to marry James, and you'll be the godfather of my child."
"I am your conscience and yes, you are going to marry James. As soon as we can get rid of that bloody nark!" the voice snapped.
"James?" Lily asked.
"Hey!" the voice complained irritably, "I'm referring to Malfoy as the bloody nark!"
"So you're not James, because he's playing Quidditch right now," Lily pondered. "You're not Pettigrew, he's too fat and stupid; you're not Lupin, because he's too mature and civil. So that means, that the only dolt left in the marauders, would be you, Sirius." She put her hands on her hips and glared into the direction where the voice was coming from.
"Oh bloody hell!" Sirius moaned as Lily turned to get away from him and went into the Girls Lavatory. "Wait, just hear me out!"
"And why should I?" asked Lily from inside the girl's lavatory.
"Because Malfoy is slipping something into your drink to make you like him!" Sirius retorted and then burst open the bathroom door and immediately got slapped by Lily.
"OOOUUUCHH!" Sirius whined. "What was that for?"
"Number 1: You're accusing Lucius of horrible things that he would never do. Number 2: I hate James, and you're crazy to think that we could ever be together. And number 3: You're in a GIRLS LAVATORY!"
"What about what he said to you at the Halloween Ball?" Sirius quipped.
"He told me that when he met me, he realized that muggle-borns were no different. And since he didn't technically know me, he didn't have that view."
"And what about James. A little birdie told me you to shared a few dances and a kiss!" Sirius said grinning widely and received another slap.
"I didn't know any better!" Lily hissed.
"Don't you see, if you would just wake up and smell the coffee—coffee! I like coffee, it has caffeine!" Sirius rambled until Lily intervened by giving him, yet another slap.
"Ouch! Sorry, focusing. Even after the amnesia spell, James still remembered your name. Now that is dedication."
"He had no thoughts to erase in the first place!" Lily remarked.
"You fell in love with him! Admit it!" he quarreled.
"SIRIUS! LEAVE ME ALONE!" Lily screamed and ran into a stall and locked the door.
"L—ii—ll—yy," he griped. "Would you please just listen to me? If you don't I'll sing."
"I don't care!" she said defiantly.
"Very well. Hey, hey, mama, said the way you move, gonna make you sweat, gonna make you groove! Oh, oh, child, way you shake that thing, gonna make you burn, gonna make you sting! Hey, hey, baby, when you walk that way, watch your honey drip, can't keep away!"
"Shut up!" Lily screamed as she hit her head against the wall.
"OH YEAH, OH YEAH, AH, AH, AH!!!! AH YEAH, AH YEAH, AH, AH, AH!!!" wailed Sirius as he did his best Jimmy Page impression and Lily screamed. "I gotta roll, can't stand still, got a flame in my heart, can't get my fill! Eyes that shine burning red, dreams of you all through my head!!!"
"OH YEAH, OH YEAH, AH—"
"Fine! FINE! JUST PLEASE, PLEASE STOP SINGING!!!" Lily whimpered exasperatedly.
Lily went back to the Quidditch game after Sirius finally left her alone. When she sat down, Lucius immediately put his arms around her and kissed her. James was flying past the stands, where Lily and Lucius were sitting, heading towards the goal posts with a Quaffle in his hands, when he glanced at them. He went into shock and immediately forgot what he was doing and where he was. Alas, he was in the air and his broom was still careening through the air towards the goal post. SMACK! James hit directly into the post and fell down to the ground at top speed.
"Prongs!" Sirius bellowed to James who was too busy moaning on the ground in pain to take any notice. "You!" he turned to Lucius, "it's your fault! You did that on purpose you bloody nark!" Sirius then jumped on Malfoy and started punching him in the face repeatedly.
"You—punch—are—punch—such a—punch—bloody prat!"
"STUPEFY!" Lily yelled and Malfoy collapsed stiffly.
"Lily, you're no fun. Take that off of him so I can beat him up more," Sirius said eagerly.
"Fine, but if you get beat up, it's your own fault," Lily retorted and removed the spell on Lucius.
"Have fun in the future!" Lucius bellowed and pointed his wand at Lily and Sirius. "Timelto!"
The whole Quidditch Pitch started to spin rapidly. Lily instinctively clung to Sirius out of pure fear.
"Jeez, Lily! Make up your mind. You kissed James, dated Malfoy and just broke up with him, and now your clinging to me!" Sirius taunted
"You are so imma—" Lily began, but she was cut off because they suddenly stopped spinning and found themselves in the same location, but a different place entirely.
