Lilly Potter and the Year of Choices
The next few years passed pretty normally. Andrew was admitted the following year as a 5th year Gryffindor. He became apart of Lilly's group. He had given up trying to win Lilly as his girlfriend. Lilly knew she had to defeat Lord Macafoy this year(her 7th year), but other than that she wanted nothing more to do with the Prophecy. Andrew was disappointed about it, be he decided to let Lilly live her life how she chooses; and by Lilly's 7th year she had grown up so much. She was beautiful; her red hair had grown down past her waist. She was by far the most beautiful girl at Hogwarts.
Andrew had graduated 3 years prior. He was very fortunate that this past year Madam Hooch decided to retire and Andrew was allowed to take over her position as Quidditch referee and also teaching the first years how to fly. He was grateful that he was going to be able to see Lilly daily.
In Lilly's 6th year Chris finally worked up enough nerve to ask Lilly out, and she said yes. They have been together for about 6 months now. Andrew knew that the vowed to give Lilly up. Let her live her life, but every time he saw Lilly and Chris snog he wanted to kill him; but he held his temper, he knew that Lily would be his, when she was good and ready to face her destiny.
It was now one month before the start of the school year, and Lilly's 7th and final year. She was visiting Andrews at his house in Hogsmeade. They decided to go for a walk.
"So Lilly, tell me what is new?" Andrew asked.
Lilly debated this question, about one month earlier she realized that she began to have feelings for Andrew; but she decided to ignore them. He did not like her in that way anymore.
"Chris gave me a promise ring." Lilly said softly.
Andrew felt like his heart has just been ripped out and stomped on. He had gotten pretty good at hiding his feelings for Lilly so he acted happy for her instead.
"That's great Lil' I am very happy for you," Andrew said through a fake smile.
Lilly knew he was over her but it still hurt like no tomorrow that he felt nothing but friendship for her. Changing the subject Lilly said, "So rumor has it that you will be replacing Madam Hooch this year."
Andrew smirked; he remembered when Lilly and himself were on the Quidditch team together. She was a seeker and him a beater. She was now Quidditch Captain, and Andrew could not be more proud of her.
"Why yes Miss Potter, and do not think that I will favor you on the Quidditch pitch." Andrew said with a smirk.
God! I want to kiss him. Lilly thought to her self.
"I would never even dream of it, Mr. Dumbledore," Lilly said sweetly, batting her eye lashes.
"How about we go get a butterbeer, it will be my treat?"
Lilly looked over and Andrew and sighed, "That sounds wonderful,"
They walked in to the 3 Broomsticks and ordered 2 butterbeers. Lilly and Andrew talked together happily for the rest of the day.
