Title: "Not Every Thing is what it Seems
Chapter 3
Head Rooms
"Lily sit down, what is the matter? Here have a tissue," said Dumbledore kindly.
Lily nodded and told the headmaster about the letter from Dylan and the threatening letter.
The Headmaster looked over his half moon spectacles, sighed and murmured quietly, "How very unfortunate."
"Sir Dylan and I are very close. We are like brother and sister, even closer, we tell each over everything. The letter he gave me is only ΒΌ of a parchment, he never writes letters that short. They are usually 6 parchments long. The letter about my sister, what does that mean? Does it mean that someone will be hurt or killed or will something be stolen?" Lily tearfully said.
"Frankly Ms Evans I'm not quite sure what both letters mean but I will get auror from the ministry to look into it," Dumbledore replied.
"Thankyou sir," Lily replied. "Your welcome. Now you better go see Professor McGonagall about your Head Girl Room," Dumbledore replied.
Lily walked out of the Headmasters office and down the stairs to find James at the entrance still waiting for her.
"Come here lily what's the matter?" asked James drawing Lily into a hug.
Lily instantly started to sob into his shoulder.
"Shush, it's ok, everything will be fine. I'm here now, just let it all out," James said soothingly.
"Thanks, um we have to go see McGonagall about our Head boy and girl rooms," Lily said awkwardly.
The pair walked silently up to the transfiguration teacher's room and knocked on the door.
"Minerva McGonagall!" Said James kissing the professor on both cheeks. "You look radiant as usual!"
A very flustered McGonagall thanked him and replied, "Ms Evans, Potter what could I do for you both and you do realise it is quite late?"
"So sorry Professor, could you please tell us about our head boy and girl rooms?" asked lily.
"Of course dear, come with me."
McGonagall lead them to a door not far from the Gryffindor common room. The door was timber with gold trimmings, it had a gold handle and it appeared to be to discreet eyes staring back at them.
"Now this is the entrance to your rooms, the only people that are permitted in here are your selves, my self, the head master and four of your friends each. To get to your rooms you have to know the password and tell it to Macquarie who is the heads entrance watcher and doorkeeper. The password to your rooms is Doxy, do not forget it!"
McGonagall said the password and opened the door to a corridor that lead of to four doors, two on each side and a balcony at the end of the corridor.
"To my left is your room James and a common room which both of you will share and to my right is your room Lily and a study for both of you to share. I hope you like it all I decorated it myself this year!" Boasted the professor proudly.
"Professor it is beautiful you have out done yourself yet again!" lily cried happily.
"Thank you dear and the house elves have brought all of your belonging up to your rooms for you. Now I must be going."
Professor McGonagall walked out and left the pair alone.
"Well lets go explore we will start on the left hand side 1st but," said James
They walked into Potters room, which was red and gold with Quidditch posters on the walls and a photo of his family on his bedside table and a vase of flowers on the other
"Is this your family?" asked lily. "Yeah that's my mum Katherine, my Dad David, my sister Libby, my Aunt and Uncle Tina and Fred and my godparents Greg and Kate Longbottom. Before you ask yes they are related to Frank Longbottom it's his parents and I do have a sister she died when she was nine from the Wharton's curse that Voldemort cast on her." Snapped James irritably.
They walked into the Common room which was large with blue walls, a fireplace, a couch and an odd-looking box saying:
This is a new addition to the head common room this year; Ms Evans should know how to use it. - Sincerely Professor Minerva McGonagall.
"What is this? Asked James curiously. "It is a television, it plays shows on it that you can watch very similar to a cx3 but not magical," Stated Lily.
"Ok next stop the balcony," James said. The walked out onto the balcony overlooking the great lake and Hogwarts grounds, in the middle of the balcony was table and chairs and a magical record player.
They then walked into a fully furnished study with 2 desks, parchment, quills, ink and a bookcase full of their books and other novels and non-fiction stories.
"Wow this is even better then the library!" Lily cried. "Trust you to point that out" James snapped.
"Do you want to see my room or not?" Lily snapped back.
"Whatever Evans, just make it fast and hurry up I do not have all day"
"Potter you are the most arrogant self-centred, self-absorbed, selfish person I have ever met!" Evans replied as they walked into her room.
Lily gasped when she walked into her room. Her room was large with light pink walls and purple trimmings. The room had a four post bed with Satan sheets. Lily's room had a bed side table on either side of her bed with a vase of flowers on one and a photo frame of a muggle picture of her family. But what made lily gasp was the two doors that lead of into a beautiful bathroom and the largest walk in wardrobe she had ever seen with all of her clothing in it plus some new clothing that someone had put in there.
"James said slyly interrupting Lily's thoughts, "Night Evans, if you get lonely in the night you know where to find me!"
'Rise and shine MS Evans you have a new day a head of you. The Day today is Friday and the time is 6:30 am. Today you start your 1st class for the year and you have a meeting with the headmaster for head duties. Oh and don't let Mr Potter forget his detention either," Said Lily's very annoying magical alarm clock.
Lily yawned turned her alarm clock off and hoped into the bathroom to get ready.
"Evans! Your time table has arrived. Do you know what filch got me to do this morning for detention?" asked Potter walking into Lily's room to give her time table to her but stoped when he saw lily getting ready.
"POTTER GET OUT NOW!" "Sorry, I didn't see much," James said lying through his teeth.
Lily walked out of the bathroom to find James already gone to class and picked up her time table.

"Well Ms Evans there is a lot of things you don't know so you better watch your back," He snarled back at her.
