A/N: Hey thanks to these cool as ppl…

Alice 19th: Thanks for the review, Yes Aimee is like the black family and many think her a blood traitor. Remember, James doesn't start liking Lily till fifth year; we have a few more chapters before that happens. And I will try to make the chapters longer and I hope this one is to your liking.

JewelBlossom: You really think it's interesting?

Arie-Evens: Here it is, the next chapter. Hope you like it. LOL.

Well hope you all like the chapter, it's as long as I could make it to fit in with my schedule!

Chapter 4.

A red letter. Talking to Aimee.

Was this why she was crying?

"How could you disgrace your own family?" The letter yelled as Aimee stood there weeping. "Of all people, you should know better. I would have thought the best of you, my own flesh and blood. The heir to Tom, he will be ashamed of you, I would never have thought." It went on and then it turned on Sirius.

"And you, how dare you! Your mother is so mad with you that she may even kick you out of the house. I am ashamed to be involved with either of you." And the letter ripped itself up and fell on the table.

Aimee stared at the table blankly and suddenly crumpled up in James arms. Sirius didn't look shocked he just shrugged of the shock as if it were a fly.

Lily stood there, in the doorway of the great hall, with a scared look on her face, she thought she was going mental.

"What was that?" She asked Sirius sitting down next to him.

"Oh…oh that was a howler. When your parents are angry at you for something the write a letter and their voice goes with it and so then you can hear how angry they are. But then everyone else ends up hearing what your parents have to say" He said with lots of wisdom.

"Why is Aimee's mum upset with you?"

"Because, Aimee and I grew up with pure blood family's and they usually support darkness. Our parents are ashamed that we grew up like that and turned out to be in Gryffindor rather than Slytherin, I don't really care if my parents kick me out. But Aimee grew up with darkness herself, and she may even be killed. He might spare her since they are family, but I doubt it, I am worried for her." He said sadly. Lily nodded not fully understanding what 'the darkness' was, but still understood some of it.

A few rows away, Lily and Sirius didn't notice that Kelli had heard every bit of that conversation and she didn't like what it had said. She had found out less than three months ago that she had been adopted and when she found out who her parents were, she realized they had been killed by what Sirius named as 'the darkness', she had been rather upset about not knowing them and wished to learn more. Some of this explained it, and it didn't improve the way she felt about Aimee.

"Okay. Well let me know if there is anything I can do to help. Bye", Lily said. Then she went further down the table to where Kelli was sitting waiting for her.

"Hi, sleepy head", Kelli said covering up for her mood with a great smile when Lily arrived.

"Very funny Kelli", Lily said annoyed. "You know that I am not a morning person.

"Yeah I know. Any way sit down and have some breakfast". Lily had just sat down when Ross Dippet the Headmaster walked in.

"Good morning students, as you know, classes start today. I expect high standards, even for you first years. That is all." He said sitting down to tend to his food. Lily smiled at Kelli, they had both been top grade students in elementary school, and it improved Kell's mood that they had both studied their books thoroughly over the holidays and had memorized all times and dates they possibly could.

They went through their classes happily and when it was time for lunch, they found a beautiful spot near the lake at the edge of the forest. Near by, James, Sirius and Lupin were having a game of skittles, throwing stones across the lake while Aimee watched, smiling, but tears staining her face.

The bell rang a little while after that and they made their way to herboligy.

Classes finished all too fast for Lupin, Kelli and Lily but all to late for Aimee, Sirius and James. They ate dinner peacefully and had soon gotten enough energy too study. So, being loyal to their studies, Lily and Kelli followed Remus to the library, it had barely anyone in it. But there were a few older students flipping through books near by.

They did their homework and then went up to the dormitory to find a game being played by James, Aimee and Sirius. Lupin joined them and the Lily made her way upstairs and decided to get some sleep. Kelli however was invited to play, and with a little cheekiness, she agreed.

This was a side of Kelli, Lily never got to see, she was, in maths terms 50/50 meaning she was half good, half bad. Lily didn't know and Kelli didn't plan to tell her, however she hoped that Aimee, James and Sirius could teach Lily to lighten up a little.

They played Truth or consequences first then moved on too an all round consequences, Kelli was first to get a consequence and it went a little like this…

"Ok, Kelli, what do you truly think of Lily?" Aimee asked cheekily.

"Well, she is…kind of a know it all." She said without thinking that Aimee might tell Lily and try to break up their friendship.

"She is always studying, even when we don't have homework, I mean when we were in primary school. I hate how she is always correcting my English and telling me not to swear, I even hate how she thinks she doesn't need to put on fashionable clothes on. I mean she wears tracksuit pants to disco dances."

Aimee nodded sympathetically, soon a mischievous smile crossed her face and she motioned for them to gather around, and she started telling them the plan…

Hmm...I wonder what is going throughAimee's mind at the moment. REVIEWS.
