AN: Hello. Please review. Better AN at the bottom.
Kagome stared. Kagome blinked. Lily Evans walked into the girl's dormitory.
"Why are you staring at the ceiling?" Lily asked.
"Because I want to change it pink." Kagome replied dully.
"Really?" Lily groaned, thinking about how the ditzs would say their room was 'so cute and adorable and how much James would love it'.
"No."
"Oh."
"What's the _matter_ with you?" Lily said exasperatedly, seating herself on the edge of Kagome's bed.
Kagome hesitated. Should she tell Lily? She knew that Lily was fiercely loyal and strong but this-this was something secret. Something beyond this world.
Literally.
"I don't know." Kagome replied finally. Lily snorted.
"There has to be a reason. You haven't been out of this dorm in 3 days. The houselves have to bring you food and you have about 3 years of detention racked up now." Lily complained.
"Beat Sirius in the competition for most detention than, eh?" Kagome said dryly. Lily rolled her eyes.
"Whatever. When are you going to get out of this place?" Lily said, looking at Kagome's part of the room.
It was completely trashed. Gum wrappers and books were sprawled out on the rug as well as clothes that have not been washed in 2 weeks. Kagome's bed was not made.
As for Kagome herself, well, it wasn't a pleasant sight. Her normally shiny hair was dull and tangled. Her eyes looked bruised from lack of sleep and it was obvious she was losing weight (AN: Wish that would happen to me, lol :P).
"Seriously, I'm starting to get really worried about you, Kagome." Lily said, adopting a motherly voice. Kagome snorted.
"You wouldn't understand." Kagome replied. Lily suddenly stood up, furious for reasons unknown.
"Kagome Higurashi, how would you know?" She demanded. "What's the first thing you know about me?"
Kagome wasn't sure how to answer that question.
"Um, you hate James Potter?"
"Exactly!" Lily yelled triumphantly, folding her arms over her chest in a pompous manner. "People think I'm just a James-hater and my point in life is to make James's life miserable, right?"
"Um.yeah?"
"But it isn't!" Lily shrieked.
"Do you know the first thing that matters to me? My sister! I would kill to have my sister back!"
"Your sister died?"
"She might as well have! She hates me!" Lily said bitterly.
"She hates me because I'm a witch! If I was a muggle than we would be the best of friends! We would still be closer than sisters! We would still do everything together! Did you know that my mum died when I was six? Did you know that once my father had a heart attack and narrowly survived? Did you know that I am not a goody goody two-shoes and used to get in trouble all the time before I had a talk with Dumbledore? Well? DID YOU?" Lily shrieked, and Kagome covered her ears. It was quite a shock for all these words to suddenly burst into the once quiet atmosphere.
"I'm sorry Lily." Kagome said, looking down at her hands. Lily was breathing hard and was very red in the face. She calmed down soon and walked to Kagome.
"I'm sorry too, Kagome. It was my fault. I shouldn't have blown up at you like that. It's just been so stressful all these years. I feel like everyone hates me, even my friends. I'm so afraid that I'll lose them just like I lost Petty." Lily confessed, suddenly looking so much like a lost child. They hugged each other, begging for forgiveness. They knew it. Both of them had had their more than share fair helping of pain in the past.
"I miss Petty! So much." Lily sobbed into Kagome's dirty robes. Suddenly, tears were running down Kagome's cheeks as well. She didn't exactly know why she was crying.
Then she did.
She was crying for the death of her father, for the betrayal of InuYasha, for the future that could come if Dumbledore put his plan in action, and for how she thought of _him_ so much.
Sesshoumaru.
She loved him.
Actually, maybe not.
Did she really know what love was? She had easily thought she loved InuYasha and that InuYasha had loved her. She thought it was as simple as that. But was that really what love was?
Kagome thought about it, while consoling herself and the lost desperate child that was Lily Evans.
Kagome started thinking about Lily Evans's future. Lily Evans was going to die.
The truth hit her.
Lily Evans was going to die wounded.
James Potter would fill a huge portion of Lily's heart. But the only one that could heal Lily completely was the one who hated her most.
Petunia Evans.
Kagome swore she would somehow make Petunia Evans and Lily Evans have one day of heaven together.
For the entire day, they cried.
Just cried, pouring their hearts out. Kagome told Lily about Dumbledore's plan, Lily told Kagome about how she didn't think James was really all _that_ bad and so on.
Finally, after what seemed a few hours, they stopped crying. They both felt dehydrated and after chatting a bit more about Dumbledore and Petunia, they decided to go downstairs, ready to brave the world after shedding tears because of it. They could feel it. The power emanating off of each other was enough to make them more comforted, more confident.
"Oi, Carrot-head, what's the matter? You cry?" James Potter looked up from the mouse he was trying to charm into sprouting wings.
"Perhaps." Lily answered. She looked at the mouse.
"Do you need some help?" She asked kindly.
"Um.sure." James was baffled. When was Lily ever so nice to him? Or anyone else for that matter. Again, he felt that fluttering feeling that came whenever Lily was even the smallest bit nice to him.
Kagome shot Lily a smile and Lily gave back a watery smile.
Kagome turned to go.
She was ready to brave the world.
And Sesshoumaru.
AN: Eh, sorta cliffie. I'm not too proud of this chapter since 1) it's very short 2) WHAT HAPPENED TO THE HUMOR? 3) No appearance of my Sesshy-poo ;_;. Please give me more plot ideas though it seems to have enough plots going right now :P. Thank you for reading and please please PLEASE review! I'm getting the feeling I'm getting less readers now for some reason *shifty eyes*
