Confessions of a Teenage Red Head

Chapter 2

Day 2 – still

"Oh my god Lils another detention, what did you do this time?"

that was the first thing Alice said to me. Hey I might be head girl but that doesn't mean I'm a goodie two shoes.

I've had a lot of detentions thank you very much.

"Well I punched Lestrange and broke his nose."

I looked over at the Slythern table to see him glaring at me so I waggled my fingers at him and turned back around.

"What?"

My friends were staring at me like I was insane, I probably was.

"You seriously broke his nose Lily? Sweet!"

that was Marian. She hangs around too many guys and has been in one too many fights.

"Yeah why?"

Cat squealed and the whole Gryffindor table turned to look at her. This caused her to turn bright red and whisper,

"I wish I was there. Did anyone see you punch him, I want a play by play."

"Well yeah Black was with him and I was walking with Potter."

I then set in and told them the whole story. We finished eating and walked to charms which was uneventful

except for the part where I "accidentally" sent a pillow flying a Potter's head. Hey I couldn't let him think he was

my friend just because I called him James!

Later in the Common Room

Homework Time! Yes, this is my favorite time of the day! NOT! So you know how there's dumb blondes?

Well Red heads are the smart ones. Its true, did you think I got head girl by just being incredibly good looking?

Hell no! I got it because I'm a smart red head. Anyways back to the topic, right so even though I'm smart and

head girl I still don't like homework. I don't think anyone in their right mind likes homework, except the kind

where you have to get your parents to sign something but that's because you don't have to do anything. So I

already finished Professor Slughorn's homework at break, so now on to transfiguration. "Review vanishing spells

and other O.W.L. level spells." It's that time of year again where they've taught us everything they can and have

to resort to reviews. To bad I lent that stupid fifth year borrow my notes on vanishing spells. Who can I ask for

help? Ah Potter, top transfiguration student, excellent.

"Oi Potter!"

I yelled as I walked up to him.

"I need help with the transfiguration homework."

"Do my eyes deceive me? Stubborn Lily Evans is asking for help."

Stupid Black, he is such an idiot.

"Don't you mean ears Black?"

"Huh?"

"Never mind I forgot your brain doesn't have the capacity to understand what normal people say."

"Now Evans you wont get anywhere by insulting my friends."

Oh Potter, he can be so naive.

"I wasn't insulting him, just telling the truth."

James laughed and Sirius walked over to where Remus Lupin was reading a book and stuck his tongue out at

me. He is so mature.

"Anyway Potter are you going to help me or not?"

"Alright Evans calm down, I'll help you but you have to help me with the charms homework."

Twenty minutes later find Potter and I (or is it Potter and me? oh screw proper English.) fighting over what's

the right way to do a cleaning charm.

"Um Potter weren't you the one who needed help with the homework? Not me!"

"Hey you needed help too."

James whined, wow that has to be the most annoying sound in the world, James Potter whining.

"Yes but not with charms you idiot."

"Oh I'm an idiot am I? Little Miss I-can't-even-do-O.W.L.-level-transfiguration."

"Excuse me? I can do O.W.L. level transfiguration I just didn't have my notes!"

By this point I would like to add that both of us were screaming our heads off.

"Oh sure you didn't. You probably have notes from first year"

Potter's sarcasm is really pissing me off.

"GAAHH, Potter you drive me insane. Go play in traffic."

This is where I threw my quill at Potter (to bad too that was my last one) and stormed up the stairs to the

dormitory. On my way up there I heard Black say

"She really doesn't like you mate"

and James told Black to go to hell, amusing I know. Then Cat yelled across the room,

"Oi Potter, don't you know there are only two things necessary to keep a red head happy?"

This stopped me half way up the stairs, I had to hear this.

"Oh yeah, what is that?"

"One is to let her think she is having her own way and the other is to let her have it."

She does have a point; I always like to get my own way. Actually that's pretty good; I'm going to have to steal

that one from her. What? I do have a documentary to write.

Day 3

January 12 1977

Breakfast

It is way too early in the morning to even think about thinking but here I am writing a documentary to better the

world. Wow I am such a great person. I'm thinking about naming the days, well not naming then but labeling

then or giving then a title. For later reference for when I'm really famous people want to talk about it with me

they could be on day blah, blah instead of just boring old day 67. You know when I become a Daily Prophet

best seller. So what should I call today? Hmm…maybe the day the labeling started…or how about In Which

Lily Evans Decides to Name the Days. I don't know I'll defiantly have to ponder it later. Yikes! Ponder makes

me sound like a geek, amazing how just one word can do that to you. Whoops Alice is trying to get my

attention, wonder when they got here?

"You bet I am."

"Hey your not allowed to read this yet,"

oh no already people are trying to steal my brilliant ideas!

"Lily I'm not trying to steal you ideas I don't even know what you're writing about."

"Oh yeah, sorry about that I got carried away with my brilliance."

"Someone's feeling a bit cocky today."

Humph, that's all I have to say.

"Why are you writing in a journal anyways? Have you taken up extreme diary writing?"

"Well if you must know Catherine, I'm writing a documentary."

"A documentary? Who's writing a documentary?"

"You would know if you hadn't taken an hour long shower. Wouldn't you Marian?"

"Oh shut up Alice, you're just mad that you had to use the "dirty shower"."

The dirty showers belong to the sixth years and are called the dirty showers because one time last year we

caught Francie in there with Sirius Black doing who knows what. It's been called that ever since and the poor

second year who saw them had to go to therapy for months after that. She was never the same after that

"Ew you actually used the dirty showers, that is so gross."

"You don't have to tell me I am going to have to do some serious scrubbing tonight."

"HELLO, we were talking about me here!"

Sorry I'm feeling incredibly selfish today. Maybe today should be selfish day. Whoa Lily get back on track.

"When were we ever talking about you?"

"I'm the one writing the documentary Mar."

"Really about what?"

"About being a red head."

Okay awkward silence, I think I'm going to have to drown my sorrows, or myself, in some pumpkin juice.

okay sorry but quick a/n: here the girls are writing a note to each other

Lily is the normal text, Alice is the underlined, Cat is in italics and Marian is bolded. right now back to the story.

Transfiguration – same day

Oh come on Lily, don't be mad we didn't mean to hurt you.

Yeah we just didn't understand why any one in their right mind would want to write a doc. about being a red head.

Way to be sensitive Marian.

Just because you aren't red heads and don't understand doesn't mean that can't show support for your best friend.

We are showing support it just took us a while to process it.

Alice it took you all breakfast, all of potions and half way through transfiguration to process it. That's two and a half hours.

Okay so tell us why it is so important to tell the world about being a red head.

Yeah tons of people have red hair. I mean just in this class there are two of them, you and Patrick McBoyle.

No three, don't forget Sissy Peck even though her hair is black now it used to be red.

Yeah but how do we know if that was real, I mean that girl has changed her hair more times then Michael Jackson has changed his nose.

That is very true, but that's still two red heads in just one class.

I know but besides us there's only one other red head in the whole seventh year.

Eurgh Billy Fisher, I don't think that boy has taken a shower since second year.

Ew he's almost as bad as Snape.

Pu-lease no one's as bad as Snape.

Duh, hence the world almost.

Anyway it's hard being a red head. Did you know that I was the only one in my muggle school? The only one, not even my older sister has red hair. Nether do my parents, so of course Petunia always says I was adopted.

Ouch that sucks.

Yeah and I wanted to dye my hair purple until I was nine.

Purple? Lily you would have looked horrible with purple hair!

Yeah remember that time when the marauders turned your hair neon purple, on offense but you looked like an eggplant.

I know that now but when I was little I wanted to fit in with the other kids and I did not look like an eggplant. Maybe like I belonged in a futurist movie but defiantly not like an eggplant.

Technically Lily the purple would have made you stand out even more.

That's not the point; the point is I want rude little snots like Bobby Smith to think twice about calling me carrot top.

Who's Bobby Smith? Oh Lily don't do that your going to hurt yourself. Now look what you've done you've got McGonagall looking at you like a nutcase. See there's also perks to being a red head McGonagall loves red heads, you're her favorite student.

I never said being a red head sucked I love being a red head. It rocks that I can be deferent without being a Goth. Besides having red hair has nothing to do with me being McG's favorite student.

Are you kidding me it has everything to do with you being a red head? I swear if that woman ever got married (which I highly doubt) she would marry a red head.

Did you know Dumbledore was a red head? It was more of an auburn color but defiantly some red.

Weird I always thought Dumbledore was born with white hair. I mean I could imagine him with anything else.

He wasn't born with white hair you shit head.

Duh! I was just saying I can't imagine him with any other color hair besides white.

I always thought McGonagall and Dumbledore had a thing. Must be why she likes red heads so much. I mean you can just feel the sexual tension whenever their together.

EW Lily! That is the grossest think I have ever heard in my life. You are such a perv.

Bad mental pictures, bad mental pictures…

I am officially scared for life and if this conversation goes any farther I'm going to have to join that poor second year in therapy.

LATER

Walking out of transfiguration Potter tried to talk to me. Needless to say I'm not talking to him, here's what

happened.

"Hey Evans wait up."

"Potter I am not talking to you and if you value your life at all you'd leave me alone."

Surprisingly enough he listened, probably for the first time ever in his life. Actually I've never seen him run so fast

in his life. I feel bad for is mother she has to deal with him and Sirius; I don't know how she does it. Maybe

she's an alcoholic; I know I would be if I had to live with those two. Anyway the girls and I decided that tonight

we are having a girl's night in seeing how it is only night where we are all not busy it should be lots of fun. I'm in

charge of bringing the chocolate.
