Chapter 6: Giving It All Away
As usual Halloween passed, with the usual feast and such. While, James and Sirius practiced for the Quidditch season. As November entered Hogwarts, the sounds of a new Quidditch season emerged with talk.
And soon turned into the match . . .
"Welcome, welcome to another season of Quidditch, to top it all off today the match will start with Gryffindor versus Slytherin!" The crowd's cheers were heard even more loudly then ever.
Girls Dormitory"Come on Lily, we're late," Britney shouted shaking Lily awake.
"Huh?" Lily yawned.
"The match just started! Come on!" Britney was still in her pajamas and was pulling Lily out of bed.
"Alice didn't wake us?" Lily asked too tired to be worried.
"Obviously not! Get dressed!" Britney went into Lily's trunk pulled out clothes and robes and threw them at Lily. "Now!"
Lily quickly did as she was told, and the girls were running down the Girls Dormitory stairs. "I – don't – get – why – we're – rushing," Lily panted running after Britney. "It's – only – Quidditch!" Lily yelled after Britney.
"Because James and Sirius are playing!" Britney yelled.
"I thought you didn't like them!" Lily yelled. Britney stopped on the stairs to the Entrance Hall. Lily, (not really paying attention) slammed into Britney's back, causing her to fall down the stairs, with Lily. From the top of the stairs, to the bottom of the stairs, quite a bad fall. Lily heard a crack, while falling.
When they finally landed on the ground, Lily stayed on top of Britney.
"Get off! It hurts!" Britney muttered. Lily rolled off Britney's back, and over her arm.
"OW!" Britney exclaimed.
"What?" Lily said quickly standing up. She failed, and sat back down. "Ow, my ankle hurts!"
"My arm," Britney whined. "It hurts," tears welled up in her eyes. "IT HURTS!"
Lily looked at her arm. It looked out of place, really out of place. "Well maybe we can skip the Quidditch match," Lily said swallowing hard. "To the Hospital Wing?" Lily asked.
Britney nodded, with tears staining her face.
"Ok, er, you're going to have to stand up, and help me up with your good arm and -," Lily started, but suddenly Britney screamed, while still crying.
"What is all this racket?" came Mr. Flich's angry voice.
"My arm," Britney cried.
"Well then get up," ordered Filch. "Both of you!"
"I can't, my ankle is sprained I think," Lily said quietly.
Filch looked furious. "Get up Turner!" he ordered.
Britney slowly and struggling stood up. She was holding her arm, and not moving.
"Go to the Hospital wing!" he ordered once again.
"What about Lily?" Britney asked quietly, silently crying.
"I'll figure her out, now go!" he yelled.
"Can't you just magic a stretcher for her to go to the hospital wing?" Britney asked distressed.
"GO!" Filch bellowed. Britney let out a yelp in surprise and quickly and quietly (except for the occasional sob) went to the hospital wing.
MeanwhileQuidditch Stadium
"Potter passes it to Bell, who passes it back to Potter and – GRYFFINDOR SCORES! Leading Gryffindor 70 to 50! James Potter is truly a great chaser!" James searched the Gryffindor stands, for a certain red head. No certain red head could be found.
James frowned slightly, but was distracted, when a bludger came straight his way, but Sirius came in front of him and hit it at a Slytherin chaser who dropped the quaffle. Sirius winked at James.
James shot down and grabbed the quaffle. He passed it to Kevin Tompkins and shot the quaffle right into the hoop.
"Gryffindor 80 to 50! Go Gryffindor!" shouted the commentator. James smiled.
MeanwhileEntrance Hall
Filch stood there thinking. Lily was beginning to be impatient.
"Why don't you just magic me on a stretcher like Britney said?" Lily said exasperated.
"Shut up!" shouted Filch. Lily shut her mouth.
Lily was beginning to get board, her ankle was hurting.
"Please Mr. Filch, my ankle really hurts, and I need to go to the Hospital Wing," Lily complained.
"Shut up I'm thinking!" snapped Mr. Filch.
Suddenly it clicked. "You can't do magic can you? Are you muggle? No . . . you're a squib!" Lily exclaimed.
"Shut it you stupid girl!" Mr. Filch looked outraged, and embarrassed. He stepped in front of Lily. Lily cringed, thinking he would hit her. He hesitated for a bit, and he threw Lily over his shoulders.
Lily stiffened. What the hell is going on? Lily was shocked by this sudden movement. She was over the dirty, caretaker. Holy Shit, this is gross!
Lily thought they would never reach the hospital wing. But when they did, Lily heard Britney whining as Madame Pomfrey fussing over her arm. As soon as she saw Lily enter, she looked horrified. Mr. Filch placed Lily on the bed across the room.
Madame Pomfrey looked a bit taken aback by Mr. Filch. Without another word, Filch stormed out of the hospital wing.
"Just a minute Ms. Evans, let me just finish with Ms. Turner over here. Oh for heavens sake child," sighed Madame Pomfrey, to Britney as she let out a sob.
End of the Quidditch match"AND GRYFFINDOR WINS! 250 TO 180!!! WE HAVE A GREAT TEAM THIS YEAR!" bellowed the commentator. James landed and went to his brother who just had caught the snitch.
"Good going James!" Michael shouted over the roaring crowd, as he ruffled up his younger brother's hair. Michael had a blood stain on his arm. Hayden pointed it to him and Michael left to head to the Hospital Wing. James smiled weakly and he left in search for Lily.
"That was really great James!" announced Peter blocking James from going anywhere.
"Thanks Pete, er, tell Remus and Sirius I'll be right back," James said looking anywhere but at Peter. Peter nodded and walked off to find Sirius.
James rushed to the castle; in the Entrance Hall he found Alice, Tess and Daisy.
"Hey," James panted. "Have you seen Lily?" James asked. The three girls looked at him curiously. James thought quickly. "And Britney?"
"No, actually we don't know where they are, they didn't show up for the match," Alice said. "I woke them up but they said they'd be down soon, I guess not. They're probably just sleeping still," Alice answered thoughtfully.
"What do you need them for?" asked Tess looking at James.
"Nothing really, I just wanted to know where they were. They weren't in the crowd, that's all!" James said impatiently.
Alice raised her eyebrows. "Were you looking for one of them?" She asked.
Oh great, thought James. "No," he answered a bit too quickly.
"Well when we wake them up, we'll tell them you're looking for them. Though Britney might be a bit reluctant," said Alice, she smiled and the three girls walked to Gryffindor Common Room.
James decided he would go to the Hospital Wing to check on his brother. On the way there Filch was muttering more angrily to himself then usual. James shrugged, and entered the Hospital Wing.
But his brother wasn't the only occupant. On the bed next to Michael was none other than Lily Evans. James smiled slightly. Oh yeah, and Britney was there too.
Someone walked right into James' back. He turned to find Haylie there.
"Hey Jamie!" she smiled and she made her way to Michael's bed, when she saw Britney sitting there, looking at the ceiling. She walked over to her. "What are you doing her Princess?" she asked.
"My arms broken," she muttered.
"How did that happen? Did you have another one of your clumsy moments?" Haylie asked with a smile.
"For once, no, actually it was Lily who had a clumsy moment," Britney answered lightly.
Haylie looked over to where Lily was sitting looking disturbed. "What happened to you Lily?" Lily didn't answer. "Lily?"
Lily looked over at Haylie. "What did you say?" she asked.
"I said, what happened to you that got you in the hospital wing? And gave you a clumsy moment?" Haylie asked for the second time.
"I have a sprained ankle," Lily answered quietly.
"How did that happen?" James asked. He walked over to Lily's bed.
She looked at him confused.
"I'm fine, thank you James," said Michael loudly so his brother could hear him, but nothing reached him.
"Britney and I fell down the stairs, that's all, nothing else happened I swear!" Lily said quickly.
"Yeah nothing at all! We didn't bump into Filch or anything, nothing at all!" Britney answered quickly as well.
"Yeah!" Lily said smiling weakly.
"Don't give it all away Lily!" Britney snapped.
