Anyway in total there is twenty-four chapters. Anyway here is the next segment.

Hey Juliet,

I think your fine; you really blow my mind

Maybe, someday you and me can run away

I just want you to know I want to be your Romeo

-Hey Juliet by LMNT-

There was no sighting of Malfoy all during lunch hour. Lily found this very strange. She didn't see him in divination either. Lily was now sitting near the lake throwing some food out to the squid. The squid was always more easy to get along with, when it had eaten.

However Lily wasn't really thinking about the squid. She was thinking about Malfoy. She hadn't seen the jerk since Potions. The question was that a good thing or a bad thing. Lily paused, before deciding it was indeed a bad thing. After all, when it was quiet that didn't mean it was always good thing.

"Lily!"

The silence was shattered.

Lily looked around and saw a figure running towards her. She blinked in surprise when she realizes it was Andromeda.

"Andromeda?" Lily replied confused, seeing the Slytherin girl.

"Lily, I'm so glad I found you!" The redhead exclaimed.

Lily rose an eyebrow in surprise, "why?" She asked.

"You haven't been talking with Lucius, have you?" Andromeda asked.

Lily blinked "no, can't say I have." Was her curt reply.

Andromeda looked at her suspiciously. Lily was very glad she had a very good poker face.

"Well than, have you seen him around today? Andromeda asked.

Lily shrugged, "not since potions. Why?"

Andromeda tossed her hair off her shoulders, "no reason." She replied.

Lily glanced at Andromeda, "if your looking for Sirius I think he's still in Great Hall."

Andromeda gave her a smile; "I was just about to ask you about Sirius, you must be a mind reader."

"Well, I do have the highest mark in divination." Lily replied.

Andromeda gave Lily a half smile before asking "Lily do you want to come inside with me?"

"For what?" Lily exclaimed, "to see the guys gorging themselves. No thanks I can see that anytime, I wish."

Andromeda muffles her giggle with her hand, while her hazel eyes sparkle with amusement. "Seriously Lily. Do you want to come?" Andromeda asked.

Lily smiled but shaked her head, "I'll just stay out here."

"Suit yourself than Lily." Andromeda replied. "I'll see you around than." She replied.

"Yup." Lily replied and Andromeda smiled and ran off, she did wave before going in and Lily waved back of course.

Lily had been outside for a bit but now she was heading in. After all she had to be ready to go to Hogsmeade, since they could this weekend. She needed to get a dress robes and some shoes. Also Lily wasn't even sure what color to wear yet either. Honestly, she had to stop thinking about Lucius. She needed to focus on more important stuff, like dress robes styles.

Lily walks around Hogsmeade, looking at all the different shops. There were so many different shops and places to eat. It amazed Lily. If you ever needed something Hogsmeade had it. Everything from wands to butterbeer to dress robes to candy. It was truly amazing. The marauders had decided to go to Zonko's and Lily decided to get some new dress robes. She had grown over the summer and her other dress robes were too short. The group of them had agreed to meet in three broomsticks.

Lily walked into the dress robe shop and was instantly greeted by the storekeeper, who was related to the shopkeeper in Diagon Alley who ran a robe shop as well.

"Dress robes, my dear?" The shopkeeper asks kindly and Lily nodded as she was led to the apporiate section of the store.

Much to Lily's delight there were robes of every single color of the rainbow, no color wasn't present it was truly amazing.

"Lots of colors to choose from huh?"

Lily whirled and looked at Andromeda who was looking through the different styles. "Andromeda, how long have you been here for?"

Andromeda shrugged "about fifthteen minutes. Trying to decide what I am going to be wearing to the ball."

"Going with someone special?" teased Lily.

Andromeda blush was very faint. "Yes I'm going with Ted Tonks, do you know him?"

Lily smiled and gave a brief nod. "Oh yes, he's very nice I used to sit beside him in ancient runes last year."

Andromeda picked a blue dress robe with some silver details and had a square neckline and flow out nicely from the waistline. "The trick is to find a color and than pick a design." Andromeda said before walking off to the cashier.

Lily smiled as Andromeda walked by her. "Thanks for the tip."

Lily stretched and looks at all the different colors. Now which one should she wear?

Andromeda walked into a bookstore that was located near the robe shop. She browses through some of the different spell books. Ted's birthday was coming up and she knew he like to read about new spells. The question was which book would he like?

"Looking for something" A voice enquired from behind her, Andromeda jumped slightly and bumps into the person behind her.

"Lucius Malfoy, I should had know." She replied cynically.

"Yes, perhaps you should have." He replied with a haughty look. "Whatever, are you looking for anyway."

"If you must know, it's for a friend." Andromeda quickly said.

Lucius rose an eyebrow. "A friend? Than why aren't you looking in the dark arts area?" He questioned.

"He's not a Slytherin."

"Not a Slytherin?" Lucius asked, "interhouse relations, Andromeda? Tsk, tsk."

Andromeda rolled her eyes at the blond haired Slytherin, "I don't think it really concerns you Lucius."

Lucius looked at Andromeda with a raised eyebrow; "Of course it concerns me Andromeda. After all, isn't it my job as a prefect to watch over the wellbeing of my housemates." Lucius smoothly replied.

Andromeda shot him a look that clearly said 'I am not impressed'.

Lucius gave her that clearly said 'oh do tell'.

"What house is he from?" Lucius prompted.

"Does it matter?" Andromeda asked.

"Of course." Lucius replied.

"What if I told you Ravenclaw?" asked Andromeda.

Lucius smirked, "I suppose I wouldn't be overly surprise, since you yourself are studious."

"Gryffindor?"

Lucius rose an eyebrow; "I would be extremely disappointed in you. You never peg you the Gryffindor type."

"Hufflepuff?"

Lucius rolled his eyes; "if he's a Hufflepuff I'll try not to be angry with you Andromeda, no guarantees."

"Well you can start practicing, since he's a Hufflepuff." Andromeda replied.

"Tsk, tsk Andromeda; what would your mother say?" Lucius asked.

"She doesn't know and I intend to keep it that way." Andromeda replied before turning on her heel and leaving.

"I might not tell but Bellatrix might, than will you do then?" Lucius replied.

"I run away." Andromeda said.

"I don't think you have the guts." Lucius said in a dismissive tone.

"Well, we won't figure that out as long as Bellatrix doesn't say anything will we?" Andromeda questioned.

"She might if you go to the ball with this Hufflepuff." Lucius replied smirking.

"Perhaps." Andromeda replied and left the store.

Lucius smirked while watching her leave; it was always very good entertainment to piss off Andromeda. It wasn't always easy but it was enjoyable. Well he was finished annoying one redhead in his life now; all he had to do was annoy the other one. Speaking of that, where was Lily?

"Hmm." Lucius said while leaving the stores and walking down the street.

Lily strolls through the different colors while rejecting certain colors under her breath.

"Yellow? No makes my skin looks horrible. Red? No it will clash with my hair. Black? Makes me look like a ghost."

Lucius was strolling down when he glanced into the robe shop and his eyes caught sight of Lily. He smirked and headed into the store. He didn't really need new robes but had really come to annoy a certain redhead.

He walked up behind her while; she was looking at the robes in the color green.

"That would look lovely on you" Lucius said from behind Lily.

Lily recognizes his voice immediately and shot him a glare, "what do you want?" she asked while glaring at him.

"Is it a crime to see my favorite prefect?" asked Lucius.

"Yes." Said Lily and she walked over to see some of the other colors. Passing by pink, orange, purple and brown.

"Haven't chose a color yet?" Lucius questioned.

Lily shot him a glare as she continued looking some of the other colors.

"You should wear green." Lucius said.

"And why is that?" Lily asked while rolling her eyes.

"It would look lovely on you of course and I like the color green." Lucius replied.

Lily made a mental note never to wear the color green around him again. She figured best not to fuel the fire; if she wanted to get rid of Lucius, the best way was to wear things that he didn't like. That way he wouldn't want to be around her and lose interest in her. Even through she didn't even know what spark it in the first place.

Lily saw a white robe she likes in a design she liked as well. She grabbed it and started to walk to the counter but before she left she gave Lucius a cold goodbye.

"Good day Malfoy." Lily said.

She walked out of the store and was headed towards three broomsticks.

Nott gave a last look for some robes and glanced at Lily's fading figure. "Kinda fiery." He reflected.

"Not really, only when I piss her off." Lucius replied.

"Well I'm going to head out." Nott said.

"I'll think I might come along actually." Lucius replied.

Nott raised an eyebrow "not going to bug your precious Lily?" He questioned.

"No, she most likely went off to join Potter and I don't feel like having to deal with those idiots today." Lucius replied with a snort.

Nott chuckled and the two slytherins headed out the door and joined the group of Slytherins a couple meters ahead. The group of them headed for the castle.

If they had left a couple minutes before, they would had been directly behind a group of students. Actually a group of five Gryffindors. Four of them are male and one being female with her trademark red hair swaying behind her.
