Chapter 8((a/n please read and rate!))

JAMES POV

As always, people come up to me and flirt. But today, some girl was…. Let's just say she attacked me. Beatrix, a slytherin,(also Sirius's cousin) smothered me when I was calmly walking down the hall and talking to Lily. Beatrix jumped on me, and started……kissing me, her hands traveling on parts of my body I don't want to mention. She was rough, her hands pinching me in all places. I swear, that girl is crazy. I tried to push her away but her mouth was all over the place. Then Lily started screaming at her.

LILY'S POV

That disgusting girl! She was slobbering all over James, my love. I screamed, pulling out my wand, and shouting curses at her.

My voice could be heard clearly. "Stop kissing him, you freak! Don't ever touch him like that without his approval!" My temper was rising quickly.

She stopped kissing James, and pulled out her wand. I was quick, and managed to make her turn purple and she had bruises all over her face. But she was just too mean. I never thought that she would use the Cruciatus curse, but she did…

"Crucius!" She shout rang out.

I felt in pain. My back doubled over, and it felt like a thousand knives were sticking through me. My mouth opened, and I coughed. Blood spurted out painfully, staining the ground below me. My eyes glazed in pain, and then the ground hit my head.

JAMES POV

I ran over to her perfect body, crying in despair. She had bled for me! Her perfect body was still and motionless, laying in her pool of blood. I clung on to her, and carried her oh so gently into the Hospital Wing.

I held on to her hand, never letting her go. Lily! She bled! She BLED! She should never bleed! She was too perfect to bleed! I feel asleep, sitting on her bed, clinging onto her hand in fear.

The next morning when I woke, I saw Lily, still out, and Serena, Jessica, Sharrie, Remus, and Sirius looking at me and Lily.

"Look who woke!" Sirius chuckled. "Aren't you the sleeping beauty? You drool a lot you know!"

I blushed, noticing the small damp spot on the blanket where my head had rested. The girls giggled.

"Hey, did Lily ever wake up?" I asked.

"Nope, she's still out." Remus said. "That Cruciatus curse must've been powerful."

Sirius nodded. "Stupid cousin of mine. Thinks she's so cool and mighty. She always was a dark witch, but she had feelings for you???"

I looked around confusedly. "I dunno. She likes me? She kinda just….." my voice trailed off, not wanting to talk about the occurrence.

Suddenly, Lily's eyes fluttered a bit. "James?" She murmured quietly, her eyes were slowly opening.

"Sirius? Sorry for hurting your cousin…" Lily apologized.

"Why? She hurt you and James more than you hurt her! She earned what she got, but you sure didn't!!!!" Sirius cursed under his breath.

Lily is so nice! She needed to stop thinking about others and think about herself more often.

"Thanks Lily. For everything." I said, looking deep into her eyes. To my relief, she smiled.

"You're welcome James." Her eyes shone like diamonds.
