Say Something
I really don't know what I got myself into when agreeing to be head girl. I thought it would be a great experience and finally my six years of hard work has paid off. Now I have to practically be a babysitter for Potter now. If this is Dumbledore's idea of a joke he should be shot.
"I really don't know what you're complaining about Lily," my one and only friend Elle, short for Eleanor, from Ravenclaw said the next morning. I was currently hitting my head on the table telling her the stuff I just said before.
"What are you talking about? You hate him just as much as I do!" Elle sighed,
"Maybe he really has changed…I mean do you honestly think you have a chance with Lupin?" She was laughing at me. Great now my best friend thinks I'm being stupid,
"Shut it you." I went back to hitting my head on the table,
"I don't think that's good for your pretty little head Evans." A 'charming' voice said behind me,
"I don't like you." I said not looking up. Elle laughed,
"What are you laughing at Eleanor?" Elle stopped laughing, and looked down at her breakfast,
"Real mature Padfoot." A dreamy, handsome voice said behind me. My head shot up,
"Come sit down Remus." I said pushing my bag off the seat to make room. He gave me a half grin and shook his head,
"Real attractive Evans." Pettigrew mocked pointing at his own forehead and then at mine.
"I don't like you either." I said glaring at Pettigrew. I mean seriously can he get any fatter?
"Sorry, Lily, but wherever I sit they sit." He said motioning to the three boys behind him…wait when did Potter get here. Potter looked like he was about to say something to me, or the table next behind me, but then he shut his mouth and walked to the other end of the table and sat down,
"Oi! Prongs!" Black said running to catch up with Potter. Pettigrew waddled after him. Remus waved and went to join his friends,
"What makes you think I don't have a chance?" I said now glaring at Elle, who was still staring at her breakfast,
"Because Potter will jump him."
"What do you mean?"
"I mean," she said pointing to random boys all over the great hall, "that he will do the same thing he did with Matt, Jon, Callings, and Fredrickson."
"What happened to them?"
"They all tried to ask you out, but before they got a chance Potter beat it out of them. After that all the other boys took a hint and stayed away from you. You didn't know that?"
"NO!" No wander I've never had a boyfriend. That jerk!
"Wait Lily…don't."
"Don't what?" I said standing up slinging my beg over my shoulder,
"Don't do anything now! It was two years ago." I chose to ignore her and walked down to the other side of the table stopping at Potter.
"Oh…Prongs your girlfriend is here." I was too angry at Potter to say anything to Black. Their both jerks.
"You." I think I might have hissed, but I'm pretty sure it came out sounding really bad because Potter cringed and turned around slowly to face me. The hall had gone silent by now, and I realized this, "Outside…NOW!" As Potter trailed behind me I remember hearing Pettigrew and Black singing either the death march of the wedding march… "How dare you?" I shrieked. I tend to shriek a lot don't I?
"…can I ask how do I dare what?" He said in a whisper,
"How dare you hurt innocent boys that want to ask me out?" He shrugged sinking smaller. Then something glinted in his eyes and he stood up taller. Almost two heads taller than me…
"You know what Lily? I am tired of you accusing me of everything! Fine, I admit that two years ago I did hurt boys that wanted to ask you out. But what's with you attitude yesterday, huh? I earned my spot at Head boy, and I don't know about you, but I am going to try my best to keep it. And if you don't grow up and get over your little grudge against me then maybe you should not be my partner in this whole thing. If you cant work with me than why don't you just QUIT!" He yelled the last word and stared at me for a few more seconds before entering the still silent hall again. I heard people start clapping and a few, why to go James' but I sort of was speechless.
Yes James Potter made the infamous Lily Evans speechless. How he did it, I will never know, but there I was standing open mouthed at the entrance to the great hall while everyone waited for my next move. Was Lily Evans going to run away, or was she going to say something back?
Thanks for all the reviews.
