Chapter 6: Yesterday

The next day...

Lily sat up, rubbed her eyes, and blinked in confusion.She could not remember what had happened yesterday. She looked to her left and saw James sitting beside her. She looked down to see that she was in a bed… and the memories came flooding back to her all of a sudden.

"James…! Did we…?"

"Did we what?" he said.

"What exactly happened yesterday?" she asked, now looking around and realizing that she was in the hospital wing.

"Well… you see, we were sort of… I mean, when we were about to… Um, you passed out," he said.

"I did? Oh, God. I'm such an idiot!" she scolded herself.

"No, you're not the idiot. I am. But I'm not quite sure what happened, either. It was sort of freaky. You… you're eyes… they rolled to the back of your head, and there was blood…"

"Blood?" Lily echoed.

"Yes. Then you started speaking in a different voice. It was freaky; straight out of a horror story," he said.

"What did I say?"

"You said… you must not stray from purity… or something like that." Lily was a little relieved at hearing Aunt Audrey's words being spoken. At least now she had some sort of idea as to what was happening to her.

"James, I think I know what it meant," she said.

"You do?"

"Yes. There was this prophecy… Ezmerelda's Aunt Audrey prophesied that… my life would change. She said I was… chosen. She said that I had to stay pure, or something," Lily said. She chose not to mention the part about the man.

"Wow, that's deep," said James, "I wonder what it could mean…"

"I don't know, but if freaky things like that are going to happen, then I'm going to listen to this prophecy. I don't want to do anything that might… well…" Lily stopped. She looked at James, who looked at her with concern in his hazel eyes.

"Evans… Lily… I'm sorry. About yesterday, I mean. I'm sorry for… you know… trying to take advantage of you. I'm sorry!" he said. Lily just looked at him, as he held his face in his hands.

"James… don't blame yourself. I let… I mean… it's not your fau-"

"It is my fault!" he shouted, "I shouldn't have… I'm such an idiot! Lily, how can you think this had anything to do with you? You're completely innocent! I was the one with the wrong intentions. All I could think was how much I wanted to…" He stopped and hid his face deeper into his hands, ashamed of himself.

"James…" Lily reached out a hand and touched his shoulder. He looked up at her. Tears were streamed down his face.

"I'm so sorry for doing this to you," he said quietly. She smiled at him.

"I know. It's okay, just... promise not to tell anyone what happened to me, okay?"

"Okay."Lily held his hand and squeezed it gently.

At that moment, Madam Pomfrey entered the room. She looked at Lily, then at James, then at Lily.

"Well? How are you feeling?" she asked.

"I'm fine," Lily said, looking up and smiling at the healer.

"Good. You may go," she said. James helped Lily up, out of the bed. They walked together out of the hospital wing and down to Gryffindor Tower.

The common room grew silent when the two entered. Lily spotted Ezmerelda and went to talk to her. James went to try and explain to his friends about what had happened,without giving away the freaky partand anything about the prophecy.

"Lily… what happened yesterday?" Ezmerelda asked worriedly. Lily explained it all to her friend. Ezmerelda was silent.

"Well?" Lily said.

"I… I can't believe it. You said… those were the exact words Aunt Audrey said?" Ezmerelda asked. Lily nodded.

"Yes."

"Well, I'm not surprised!" Ezmerelda said, "Lily, I don't trust James Potter. That man is a womanizer!"

"But he apologized… he wouldn't do it again… I trust him, Ez. Especially after what happened to me."

"Well, I don't want you around him unless it's for that project," Ezmerelda said. Lily laughed.

"Okay, but… you sound like my mother," she said. Ezmerelda started to laugh.

"I guess I do," she said.

"Come on, let's go do something fun," Lily said.

"Like what?"

"Hm… chess?" Lily asked. Ezmerelda giggled.

"If it'll make you feel better, then sure."

So the two began playing wizarding chess, and in no time, Lily was absorbed in the game and not worrying about yesterday.


Well, that's it. Tell me that chapter wasn't too dull… it was a little short as well, I know… and it did not explain everything either, so I know you guys are a little confused... but things will clear up for now, just sit back and REVIEW. If you don't review, I won't update. XP
