Fae: I'm sorry that you felt that this chapter was, what was the word you used, "shitty." But I've got to say, you didn't back yourself up very well on trying to prove your point. In case you didn't realize this, in the last chapter, she went to go get him back, as in she loved him so much that it would be more painful to sit back and watch him disappear than talk to him and try to win his heart over. In chapter 24, Lily realized that she couldn't live without him. I guess you didn't pick up on that though.
x0x-Mystique-x0x You'll have to wait and find out! That's all I'm going to say. Also, I'm glad you liked the chapter!
Note: I am very aware that this chapter is very short, uncharacteristically short. I know, but please do not be upset by this! I'll add the next chapter very soon!
When Emmy opened the door to James's apartment, she didn't expect her life to change just like that, but it did. She hadn't expected to see some woman standing out there, a woman that looked familiar, yet she couldn't quite place her.
She hadn't expected to see the woman's face so miserable, so heartbroken. She hadn't expected to see James with an expression to match either. She hadn't expected to see James run after her as well; she hadn't expected him to run outside in the rain for this woman.
But it did happen. All of that happened the moment she opened the door and saw that red haired, green eyed woman standing there.
Emmy was shocked to see James Potter run away from her, and toward the red haired woman. Most of all though, she was confused, confused at what this all meant.
Being the curious witch that she was, she went to the window to watch for her boyfriend and that other woman. It was difficult to see though; rain was splattered all along the glass. It was also dark outside, the only available light being that from the many lampposts.
She strained her eyes to see them, and as she did, a loud crash of thunder sounded from the sky. She jumped a bit, it sounded like it was directly overhead the apartment building.
Emmy's heart began to pound as she frantically looked around the room. She needed her wand. She needed to clear the window from all the drops of liquid. She needed to see what was going on with her boyfriend and the red haired woman.
She found it quickly and said a simple spell to clear the window of the raindrops. It still wasn't good enough though. She could easily make out where the two people were, but couldn't see what they were saying, or even what they were doing.
She said another spell, turning a pillow into a pair of binoculars. She could focus perfectly on the street below her. Now all she had to do was look for James.
In a matter of seconds she saw him. He was holding the red haired girl tightly to his chest.
Emmy shut her eyes tightly, not wanting to see the scene below her. But then opened them once more, knowing that her curiosity would force her to look out the window.
She saw James kiss the red haired girl. It wasn't a quick, peck on the lips kiss. It was long, one that was reserved for couples.
Her breathing was getting even more rapid. Her mind was swarmed with thoughts. Did James seriously just kiss that girl? What did it mean? Did he love that girl? Were he and Emmy over with?
She took one hand off of the binoculars and started to fan herself, trying to get some air to her face. She just couldn't believe what she was seeing. She couldn't believe her life was turned upside down in a matter of minutes.
She then focused in on James and the woman once more. Their kiss was finished and she watched as the woman wrapped her arms around James's neck, and James wrapped his arms around her petite waist. Emmy squinted her eyes a bit as she stared directly into the woman's face. She knew she knew her. Just from where?
Then it hit her. She was Lily Evans. The red haired woman was Jason's girlfriend, the one that was at the dinner with her, James, and Jason. She was the girl that Emmy was suspicious of cheating on Jason.
Emmy felt stupidity rise through her entire body. She knew that this girl was cheating on her boyfriend all along, but hadn't realized that her accomplice in crime was James. Her heart sunk as she clearly remembered telling Jason about her thoughts. She was such an idiot. How could she not realize that James was cheating on her with this woman all along?
She felt tears swell up in her eyes, forcing her to drop her binoculars on the floor. James had cheated on her. James Potter, the man that she trusted more than anyone, had cheated on her. She felt betrayed, how was she ever going to trust anyone again?
How could he do this to her? How could he see her everyday, while at the same time, sleep with another woman. How could he look her in the eye and tell her that he loved her when he had been secretly sleeping with this tramp?
Her breathing increased once more. This time though, it was out of rage. How could he do this to her! How could he! How dare he do this to her!
She glared out the window, her eyes barely more than a slit. She felt rage build up inside her. Her hands were balled up into little fists, her own nails digging into her palms, leaving deep marks. She didn't notice this though. She didn't notice the pain; she was too concentrated on her anger toward these two people.
James Potter and Lily Evans were going to pay for this. She didn't know how, but she knew that they weren't going to get away with this.
Author's Note 2: Hey guys! I hope you all liked the chapter! I know that it was very, very short, but don't be mad please! It would ruin it if I added any more. But I do promise that I'll update quickly to make up for it! I hope that you'll all review and tell me what you think! Thanks!
