Keeping Secrets and Being Good Friends

Lily:

"Wake up, Lily!" Olivia screamed in the morning.

"No!" I said, throwing a pillow her way. She dodged it and laughed.

"You never were a morning person, were you Lils?" Olivia laughed.

"Nope, and never will be!" I said. "Can I please go back to sleep now?"

"No way! The others and I waited for you to wake up but you didn't! They gave up on you and left! I didn't so you have to give me something in return!"

"Fine!" I said, getting out of bed. Olivia can be a little too reasonable if you know what I mean. I pulled my pajamas off and put on a black skirt mini skirt and a red blouse under my robes. I saw that Olivia (as usual) was wearing a very mini, mini-skirt. It showed most of her thighs if not all. "So how are you and Charlie?" I asked.

"Hmm… Well, what do you think?" Olivia answered. She was blushing.

"Well, I think that you are not a virgin, if you know what I mean?" I answered back. "Did you get some?"

Olivia blushed, "Okay, we 'had it' once but it was by accident!"

"I want to stay a virgin until marriage or at least until I get engaged!" I said.

"Trust me, I wanted it to be that way, too. Sometimes you just cant resist!" Olivia said.

"So… how was it?" I asked.

"Oh my God you have no idea! Magnificent sex!" Olivia said.

"That good, huh?" I asked. Olivia threw a pillow at me and I threw it back.

"Come on, the girls are probably thinking that I passed out waiting for you!" Olivia said.

"Yeah okay!" I said, following her into the common room and out of the Portrait Hole.

"Listen Lily, you can't tell anyone about me not being a virgin. People will think I am some sort of slut! Some people already think that!" Olivia said.

"Of coarse Livy, I won't tell a soul! But I don't understand what's so wrong; a lot of girls at this school aren't virgins!" I said.

"Lily! I just don't like to give away personal secrets!" Olivia said.

"Don't worry Livy; you know I won't tell anyone!" I said. As we walked down to the Great Hall, I could see everyone enjoying a delightful meal on the third day of school! The Great Hall was packed. I could see the little 1st years running around trying to find their house table. I could also see that there was no space on the table for me and Olivia except a small space made by the girls. That space was for only 2 people. Charlie was sitting on one side of the space and James was sitting on the other. I didn't want to sit next to Charlie for a few reasons:

I don't know him very well

He is Olivia's Boyfriend

Olivia would want to sit next to him

Olivia and him would probably get mad at me for sitting next to him

I am not comfortable around him

…So that left me with James.

"Hi Lily! Its about time you woke up!" Zoë said once I sat down.

"How was your night?" asked Barbra.

"It was good. What about yours?" I replied.

"Everything was good." Barbra said,

"Look Lily, Barbra and I would love to stay and chat but we have some last minute studying to do at the library!" Zoë said.

"It's Saturday! It's not last minute!" I said, laughing.

"Trust me, in Twin world it is last minute!" Barbra said. They left before Lily would say bye. Lily looked around and found that she had no one to talk to. Olivia and Charlie were snogging next to me. Janice, Anita, and Tina were whispering quietly, the rest of the marauders were also talking in a group about something and laughing and then James I heard James say, "You guys are crazy!" and he left his group. I sat quietly eating.

James:

I noticed that Lily was alone and quiet. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"Huh? Oh nothing! Why?" She said back to me and smiled slightly.

"You just seemed all quiet and you weren't talking with anyone so I thought something was up." I said giving her a small smile.

"Oh don't worry, its just everyone was absorbed in something to talk about and I came and I had nobody to talk to but I am fine!" Lily said, smiling.

Oh God I love to see her smile

Then tell her you Idiot!

Good Idea genius!

Just tell her. Woman love to hear stuff like that!

Fine! Fine! Fine!

"You know what?" I asked her.

"What?" she asked back

"You light up the world when you smile." I said.

"Really? Does my smile really light the world up? Or is it that you like to see me smile? " she asked, I knew she was just playing around.

"Of course, your smile even helps the sick."

"Wow, maybe I should become a healer!" She said

"Definitely maybe your smile will cure some weird diseases muggles die from!" I said.

"Its called cancer, ammonia, AIDS, Anorexia or any other diseases your crazy mind is thinking of!" I said, laughing.

"Lily, you know that its not funny, right?" I asked her.

Lily

Why did James ask me this? When did he get so serious? James isn't serious. Not even Sirius is serious.

"Lily?" James asked me.

"Huh?" I woke up from my thoughts, "Oh yeah of course it isn't funny!" I said

"Yeah poor muggles, they die from such diseases." James said. Since when did he care about anyone else.

"Yeah they do, in fact my sister has Anorexia and I say she deserves it." I said.

"What?" James asked.

"What do you mean? Oh yeah you don't know my sister! Well lets just say she is jealous of me being a witch and tells me to make her skinnier everyday. I of course don't even know how to do those things and then she hits and screams at me. My parents are both surgeons, well muggle healers, so they are hardly at home." I explained

"So just because she is mean you think she deserves to die?" James asked.

"What? No of course not, its just that well its hard to say she doesn't deserve it!" I said.

"Yeah I see your point!" James said.

"So you don't think I'm a bad sister?" I asked. He shook his head. Then we stopped talking.

After a moment of silence James broke it, "Lily?"

"Yeah?" I asked, He was being serious again.

"Do you… Do you, um…" James was stuttering

"What?" I asked. Was he going to ask me out again?

"Lily, I know that you for whatever reason don't want to be my friend. But Lily I can be a really great friend! Just give me the chance!" He begged.

"James where is this coming from, we were just talking about my sister and you are asking to be my friend? We are barely acquaintances!" I said. Yes I really want to be his friend but that would totally make me look bad in front of the public eye.

"Come on Lily!" He begged.

"Fine James! We will be friends but nothing more than that!" I said, smiling slightly.

"What about good friends?" James asked.

"Fine!" I said. We shook on it. Now the whole school will now about James and Lily being "Good Friends".
