Please review!
Chapter 3Lily woke up in the middle of the night screaming. She ran into the bathroom and looked into the mirror. She took her fist and slammed it against the mirror, causing it to break.
"Damn that Dominic D'Angelo! I hope he rots in his jail cell!" She muttered under her breath. She turned the sink on and wet her face with water. She took her wand out to fix the mirror.
"Reparo!" she whispered. She looked in the mirror and saw her reflection.
"Why me?" She whispered in a hoarse voice. She slammed the mirror again, causing it to break again. She decided if she didn't want to get in trouble she would have to fix it again. She cast the spell and added another spell so it wouldn't break if she hit it again.
She heard a knock on the door. She tucked her hair behind her ears and cleaned up all of the mess she had made. She took a towel and put it on her hand to cover up the blood from punching the mirror.
She turned around and called out, "Who is it?"
The girl spoke calmly, "Calm down, Lil, it's me. What are you doing in there? You are making an awful amount of noise."
"Liv?" Lily opened the door to see Olivia standing there with her head cocked to the side. She was wearing a pink tank top with her white flannels with pink kiss marks on them. She has her hair up in a messy bun on the top of her head.
"Lily, I think we need to talk. There is obviously something wrong with you." Olivia said gravely.
"Now? I mean we can talk about this later but it is in the middle of the night. You need sleep!" Lily said persuasively.
"I think you are right. Today is Thursday, right? In Muggle Studies we will talk about it. Don't forget." Olivia said as she was getting back under her covers.
"Ok I won't forget." Lily answered.
She sat in her bed and wondered what Olivia's reaction would be. She decided that she would rather think about this down stairs in the common room. She took her blanket and wrapped it around herself. She walked down the steps and went inside the common room. She went to the nearest couch and sat down. In a flash all thoughts came into her head.
She wondered if Rosemary D'Angelo knew what had happened to her brother and what he did. She wondered if Rosemary knew how much pain it had caused Lily. She wondered if Rosemary knew how much it had changed Lily. Lily was thinking more ifs then she ever had. All night what if or she wondered if, or if, if, if, if was all that was going on in her head. She let her tears flow freely down her face. Again she wondered, 'Why me?'
James couldn't sleep. He was tossing and turning until he heard a loud bang. He was almost sure it was from the girl's dormitory but he wouldn't let bad thoughts go into his head.
He got out of bed and stretched. It was time for a midnight snack. He grabbed his invisibility cloak and his wand. He carefully draped the cloak onto him making him no longer visible. He walked into the common room and heard soft crying. On the couch he saw wavy red hair covering a face of a girl about his age.
"Lily." He whispered. He took off his cloak and put his wand in his pocket. He walked over to Lily.
"Lily?" He asked softly. She looked up with her puffy eyes. Her emerald green eyes no longer had the spark that it used to have. She looked paler than usual and her hair was a great mess.
"Lily! What happened?" James again asked softly.
"It's, it's nothing, James." Lily said trying to stop the tears from falling.
"Lily, it is always okay to cry. Let it all out." James said softly as he took a seat next to her.
Lily looked at James with her wide green eyes. "James, I didn't mean for it to happen! I didn't know what was happening!" Lily cried taking it all out on herself. Lily placed her head on James's shoulder.
James began stroking her hair. "Lil, it's going to be okay. I am sure it wasn't your fault. You can get through this. I know you." James said confused yet encouraging.
"Thanks, James." Lily said a little happier. Lily took James's advice and let the tears fall until she met a good sleep. James just looked at the sleeping Lily and let himself fall asleep.
"Prongsie! Wake up! Do you want people to see you like this?" Sirius yelled. James immediately got up. He saw Lily sleeping next to him.
"What happened?" James asked confused. James suddenly remembered a crying Lily.
"I don't know. Only you and Lily know what happened." Sirius said grinning.
"Nothing like that happened, Padfoot." James said perfectly understanding what Sirius had meant.
"Lily, wake up!" James shook her awake. Her eyes, still puffy, opened slightly.
"James? What are you doing here?" She asked confused. She sat up and looked around. Her eyes widened.
"W-we didn't do a-anything…r-ri-right?" She asked hopefully. James just laughed.
"No, Lily, we didn't do anything besides talk." He said smiling.
"Okay, thank goodness!" Lily said relieved. She got up and off the couch.
"Let's go to breakfast. Olivia and Carly should be down there. Krissy is a late sleeper. She usually gets breakfast at the last minute." Lily said signaling for the boys to follow them.
Remus looked at James and shrugged. They all walked out of the common room together.
"Where is Lily?" Carly asked looking around the Great Hall.
"I don-" She stopped her sentence as she saw her, James, and Remus entered the hall. "She is right there!" She finished.
"Lily! Over here!" Olivia screeched. Lily looked to the Gryffindor table and spotted them. She smiled and waved. She ran over to the table.
"Hey guys!" Lily said merrily.
"Hi." Carly said too occupied with her bacon to talk. Olivia just rolled her eyes.
"You pig!" Olivia said to Carly. Carly looked up and pulled Olivia's ponytail out and laughed.
"You little…!" Olivia said getting up and pushing her chair in. She chased Carly around the Great Hall and into their common room. Lily jus remained in the Great Hall and laughed. James and Remus sat down across from her.
"Where'd Carly go?" Remus asked. Lily knew Remus liked her.
"I don't know. We have classes in a few minutes. We better start going. We have Muggle Studies first." Lily trailed off. She just remembered that Olivia was her partner and she has to tell her what happened to her during the summer.
"Okay, let's go then." Remus said ready for classes. They got up and headed for Muggle Studies.
"Oh, Lil-eee!" Olivia called Lily over. They were partners in this class. Lily knew what was coming.
"Okay, okay." Lily said. She began her story. Hot tears were starting to form in her eyes. Olivia saw this and nodded to everything she said. Lily finally finished the story and looked down.
"Aww! Lily! Everything is going to be okay! Don't worry, Hun!" Olivia said as she pulled her into a hug.
Lily just stared blankly into the wall. Her tears were falling slowly down her cheeks. She couldn't stop them or hide them. She looked away from the wall and met with a certain pair of hazel eyes.
They belonged to none other then James Potter. She smiled. She always found herself in this position.
FLASHBACK
4th year
Lily went down into the common room. She saw Carly with her head in her hands crying. She ran over to her.
"Carly? What happened? Is it that Ravenclaw boy? Michael Clark, is it?" Lily asked feeling sympathy for her friend/
"Oh, Lily! He, he dumped me!" Carly wailed into her arms.
"Carly, it isn't a big deal! You can get a lot of boys that are better than him! Michael is just a loser!" Lily said comforting her. She pulled her into a hug. She saw a boy none other than James Potter standing there. Their eyes met. Lily gave him a weak smile and he quickly understood.
Lily has always had a weak spot for James. She didn't know if she liked him or not. When she was locked in a gaze with James, she always had felt something weird go on in her stomach.
"Lil, it isn't fair! He likes some girl named Lizzie rather then me!" Carly cried even harder.
"Carly, that proves what a jerk he is!" Lily said reassuring her that is true.
Carly looked up at Lily with her big brown eyes. "You're right, Lily. You're the best!"
Carly said.
