Chapter 4

I am soooooooo sorry I haven't updated things just kind of piled up on me and I totally forgot about this. Then I reread it and my brain was bursting with ideas so I'm back and hopefully with a better story.

"So you seriously think Harry likes Severus?" asked Draco leaning quietly whispering to Lily.

"Yes I do and I believe he returns these feelings, its just convincing them to realise this," said Lily.

"I don't know Lil, Harry and Uncle Sev they are very different and well I don't know if it would work," said Draco knowledgably.

"You and Neville are not exactly the same either but you are working very well together," said Lily stiffly. She was still very moody and cold occasionally.

"I'm just not sure," mumbled Draco hoping to drop the subject before Lily got angry. She was violent when provoked and he didn't want to end up in the hospital wing with a broken arm or anything of the like.

Harry clenched his hands and walked hurriedly. This was the moment. Last night even Hermione was encouraging him to break up with Ginny, now it was time. He needed to do this now or he knew he never would and what if she wanted to get married he would just agree. He deserved to live his life and after the end of war he could use his freedom the way he wanted.

"Ginny can we talk?" asked Harry bravely taking Ginny's hand and leading her to the oak tree near the lake side away from her group of friends.

Smiling Ginny nodded and sat down heavily and patted the round next her in an invitation for Harry to sit down next to her.

"Things aren't working out the way I want Gin," muttered Harry, dreading his final lines. "And I want to end this before anyone gets hurt."

"Hurt?" shouted Ginny outraged. "You are a loser Harry Potter, a loser! How dare you dump me! Now you can have that little slut Lilith. That's what you want, that whore!"

Then Harry saw a flash and before he knew what was happening Lily was attacking Ginny with lots of hexes. Harry tried his hardest to keep out with the counter spells but Lily was quicker and to Harry's surprise more powerful. Soon Ginny was on the ground, her legs jelly, vomiting slugs and her ears and teeth became rather rabbit like.

"And that was me being nice," growled Lily.

"Lily? What the hell was that about?" exclaimed Harry.

"She deserved what she got, she deserved more!" cried Lily and then she fell to the ground tears falling freely from her emerald green eyes.

By this time they had attracted a big crowd around them. Harry had moved over putting his arms warmly around Lily and holding her close. Muttering comforting things in her ears while she wept, slowly she tried to talk but all she made were little whoop sounds as she tried to catch her breath.

Ron and Hermione took Ginny to the hospital wing and soon it was only Harry and Lily left. Eventually Lily had calmed down and she was just sitting there enjoying Harry's embrace. Looking up they both laughed as they saw Draco and Neville running towards them.

"Lil?" asked Draco plopping on the ground beside Lily. "What's happened?"

"I just guess it got too much. I don't want to be a death eater and I don't want to lose my brother," cried Lily.

"Miss Black and Mr Potter can you come with me this instant!" shouted Professor Snape.

Then Draco saw it. The way Harry and Severus avoided each other's eyes. Severus almost blushed when Harry hit him with the side of his shoulder, enjoying the view of his backside and Harry stammered an apology scared of his potions professor's reaction. When they began walking away Draco and Neville saw Snape walking a little behind Harry, very much

"I will repeat, why did you hex Miss Weasley, Miss Black?" asked Professor McGonagall sighing.

"I do not believe it is any of your concern!" said Lily angrily.

"Miss Black you will have detention with Professor Snape until you see fit to tell me what happened out there today," said Professor McGonagall sternly.

"I will tell Professor Snape," mumbled Lily.

"Why Professor Snape and not me?" said Professor McGonagall.

"I would feel more comfortable not having to talk to an ugly hag!" cried Lily.

"Detention Miss Black for insulting a teacher," said Professor McGonagall. "And I will take you to see Professor Snape."

Two hours later the story finally came out and both girls were giving detention, Lily of course had longer due to the fact that she did all the hexing. Lily was of course throwing a major tantrum at being given detention but didn't seem to mind that it was Professor Snape.
