Chapter Six
James slipped on his invisibility cloak and walked down a deserted corridor, the Marauder's Map and Lily's mysterious note clasped in his hand.
According to the note, he was supposed to skip his first few classes and meet Lily in the Room of Requirement, but he didn't think he was ready.
'Ready for what?' he asked himself. His thoughts were becoming crazier and crazier by the moment.
Finally, as he got to the Room of Requirement, he noticed the door. It was already there. James sighed and opened the door slowly…
Lily sat in the Room of Requirement. She was waiting for James to come. Her thoughts were becoming crazier by the moment, as were James' but, of course, she didn't know that.
All of a sudden, with a creak of the door, James burst in. He had a huge grin on his face. Lily jumped and smiled weakly. She was really nervous.
"Sooooooo..." James whispered, sitting next to Lily. "What's up? What's the emergency?" James asked.
"You didn't have to come if you didn't want to!" Lily snapped. She hadn't meant to sound mean, and felt guilty at the hurt look that had passed through James' eyes briefly.
"Sorry…"James mumbled. Lily stood quickly her mouth agape.
"Wow. THE James Potter is apologizing! Now that's a first!" she said sarcastically.
'What am I saying!' Lily thought sadly.
"I said I was sorry okay? Now what did you lure me here for?" James asked.
"I didn't lure you. You came because you wanted to." Lily stated, angry at him once again.
"And for your information, Potter, I may have taken a liking to you!" she added, but quickly covered her mouth, surprised at what she had said. 'Oh god! I didn't mean to say it aloud! Damn you thoughts! DAMN YOU!' she thought.
"Really?" James asked. He was astonished that Lily had said that, let alone felt it.
"Yes, Potter. If you must know," Lily sighed, sitting back down next to James.
James was smiling; Lily sighed and leaned against him.
"Lily?" James asked hesitantly.
"Yea..?" Lily answered turning towards him. "I love you..."He murmured, pulling her into his arms and kissing her gently.
At that moment, Sirius burst in, yelling at the top of his lungs. "Lily! Don't do it!" Lily stopped kissing James, but only for a moment, just long enough to yell "Fuck off, Black!" before kissing him again.
They heard Sirius's sigh, and then a door shut. He had left.
Lily woke; someone's arms were wrapped around her. She smiled and cuddled closer to that person. Looking up and saw that James Potter was looking down at her. Lily gasped, apparently surprised.
She rolled away from James, falling off the bench. She scrambled up, grabbed her bag and ran out of the Room of Requirement, leaving a very confused and hurt James in her wake.
She stopped once she had reached another corridor. Lily slid down a wall and sat down on the floor, apparently not realizing what corridor she was in, or who was watching her.
"Crucio!" A voice yelled. Lily bent over, her body surging with pain. She tried not to scream. She managed to look up, to see her attacker.
She wasn't surprised. There above her she saw Bellatrix and her crew, all pointing their wands at her, each performing a different curse. She stayed conscious long enough to hear Bellatrix laugh loudly, and footsteps. She heard voices that sounded oddly familiar, and then…
DARKNESS.
