CHAPTER 4
On Monday at breakfast Chris tried to talk to Lilly, she completely ignored him. During the middle of her meal an owl swooped down and dropped some Lilly's and a card in Lilly's hands. She knew they must be from Chris, she hated flowers, Chris did not know her at all, but Andrew knew her better then she knew her self.
She decided to give Chris the benefit of the doubt and opened the card.
Sweetums,
I am so sorry, Please forgive me. Janie means nothing to me. I need you to forgive me sweetums. I love you.
Truly sorry,
Chris
Lilly balled up the letter and tossed it on the table; she took the flowers and turned them into mulch with her wand.
She looked up at Chris and rolled her eyes.
Not a moment later another owl swooped down and dropped a big box of chocolate in front of her with a letter.
My dearest Lil,
I just want you to have a wonderful day. Please know that I love you and I can not wait to have you in my arms again.
All my love,
Al
Al was her under cover name for Andrew. She called him Al because it was short for his middle name Albus.
"Oh Al you are too sweet," Lilly said loud enough for Chris to hear.
Chris looked up and yelled "Who the hell is Al!"
"He is my NEW boyfriend, you know a real man, not the kind of little boy who cheats on their girlfriend!" Lilly yelled as she stormed out of the Great Hall.
Lilly was fuming, she wanted to pummel Chris, How dare he get jealous! She didn't even realize that she ended up in her potions class about a ½ hour to early.
She was unpacking her bag when her pocket turned warm. She pulled out her old notebook and read the first page.
Hi Honey, are you alright?
Yes, I am just a little fumed; he is such a pompous ass!
For get him, I love you.
I love you too.
Oh, I have some good news…
Well what is it?
McGonagall Okayed our Sunday morning visits.
That is great, I can not wait!
Lilly heard some one walking in.
Andrew someone is coming I have to go. She closed the book just as she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Lilly, I thought you would be here are you ok?"
"Aunt Hermione, I am fine really," Lilly said truthfully.
"Well, then are you going to tell me ho this Al character is, and what really happened between you and Chris?"
"If I tell you, you have to promise that you will not tell anyone, not McGonagall, Mum, Dad, Danny, anyone!" Lilly said firmly.
"Promise!" Hermione said honestly
"Saturday, I found Chris snogging Janie Javenson and I was very mad. I ended up at Andrews's house and things sort of happened. I feel so complete, like a part of me that has always been missing is now finally back. We choose to hide our relationship, for obviously reasons, and we choose the name Al because his middle name is Albus.
"Wow that little bugger Chris, but I am happy for you. I felt like that with your Uncle Ron." Hermione said.
"Thanks Aunt Hermione," Lilly said.
The conversation ended because students were starting to come into the class room.
Chris walked in and sat next to Lilly. Lilly then got up and took a sit next to Angie Gomez.
Hermione began her lesson. Chris continued trying to get Lilly's attention desperately, thought the entire class.
"Mr. Wheeler, since you find it so hard to pay attention to the curriculum during scheduled class time, you might find it easier to pay attention tonight in detention, also I want a 3 foot essay on manners by tomorrow morning." Professor Weasley said sternly.
The whole class started laughing and Lilly's mood improved greatly.
The rest of the day flew by and Chris did not dare look at her. Dinner was uneventful, Lilly did manage to sneak a few glances at Andrew, and every time she did she got butterflies. Later that night Lilly, Alicia and Annie were sitting around the fire.
"So are you ever going to tell us what happened between you and Chris?" Alicia asked.
"I caught him snogging Janie and I ended it," Lilly said giving them the abridged version.
The both looked shocked. "What a pig!" Annie said, and then added, "So who is Al?"
"Um, well he is older, I met him a few summers ago, and I ran into him again in Hogsmeade we talked and got together." Lilly explained simply
"That is so sweet; I can't believe he sent you chocolates. I wish Danny would do that," Alicia said enviously.
"Danny is a Weasley, Drop a few hundred hints and he might come around," Lilly said with a laugh.
Another hour later Alicia and Annie had gone to bed, Chris came in, Lilly got up to leave the room when Chris called out.
"Lilly wait, Please hear me out.' Chris begged.
"Why should I, I trusted you, I was faithful, I loved you!" Lilly said.
"I know, I made a mistake, I do love you. I have loved you from the first moment I laid eyes on you first year. I made a mistake, will you ever forgive me?"
"Of course I will forgive you, but know this, I will never forget what you did," Lilly said sternly.
"I know I hurt you, but I love you, will you please give me another chance?" Chris asked hopefully.
Lilly's heart broke; Chris was nearly in tears, Lilly felt like a jerk.
"Chris, there will always be a part of me that loves you. But, I am with A…. Al now. I am sorry but you had your chance, you blew it," Lilly said as she got up and walked up the stairs leaving a very crushed looking Chris in the common room.
Lilly got up to her room and drew the curtains around her bed. She put a silencing charm around her and cried her self to sleep.
The next morning she woke up just as the sun was starting to rise.
She looked over at her night table and grabbed her notebook and she starting writing Andrew.
Andrew, I need to see you now!
Just name where and when and I will be there
10 minutes at the black lake.
Lilly got up and quickly got dressed and ran to meet Andrew.
Andrew could tell by her tear stained face that something had happened last night.
Lily ran straight up to Andrew and kissed him, they did not have to worry about being seen, and no one else was awake yet.
"Andrew tell me how you feel about me, please I need to hear it.
"Lilly baby, I love you with all my heart and soul. I feel lost and empty when I am away from you. You know that Lil, what happened?"
"Last night I had a talk with Chris, he asked me to forgive him and I did. He told me that he loved me and wanted me to give him another chance. Of course I told him no, he had tears in his eyes. I feel like such a horrible person," Lilly said as she started to cry.
"Lilly you are not the bad person here, he is. You have done nothing wrong!" Andrew said.
"Honey, I love you, you know that, but why do I feel this way?" Lilly asked.
'Because you hate to see other people hurt, you are a kid person, that's why my love," Andrew told her.
The shared one last loving embrace before Lilly went back to her common room. When she walked though the portrait hole she noticed Chris sitting in her favorite, clutching the book she bought for him to his chest.
"You know Lilly today would have been our anniversary. I never got to thank you for the book," He said flatly.
"You are welcome, Chris, but we can not keep doing this, we are over." Lilly said.
"I know sweet…. I mean Lilly. But I wanted to tell you why I was with Janie."
"Chris really I…" Lilly began but was cut off.
"Andrew," Chris said.
"Andrew?" Lilly said confused.
"Yes him, I was jealous. You were always spending time with him and not me.," Chris said in a whiny voice.
"Chris you know why, we had to prepare!" Lilly said as she could feel her anger rising.
"Oh spare me, he was always staring at you with those puppy dog eyes," He said with hate in his voice.
"Chris, I never cheated on you with Andrew!" Lilly said in a stern voice.
"No maybe not, but you did not waste any time hooking up with this Al person" he yelled.
"You cheated on me! You know what Chris," She took off her promise ring and threw it at him. "I am not the bad person here, you are!" Lilly turned on her hill and went up to her room.
When she got up to her bed she wrote to Andrew and told him what happened with Chris. After she was finished she noticed the other girls getting up and ready for the day.
Still fuming over conversation with Chris she decided to turn a few heads today. She got up and took a shower and got ready for her day.
As Lilly walked into the great Hall for breakfast all eyes were on her. Lilly had done her hair up with curls flowing down her face. She was wearing the perfect shade of red lipstick, a hint of green eye shadow that matched her eyes, black eye liner and mascaras. She looked gorgeous. Every guy in the room was watching her. She looked over at Chris. His mouth was hanging open. He always asked Lilly to wear makeup when they were together, but she hated wearing it.
Just then 4 owls came though the window and the dropped 4 large teddy bears around her. One bear had a letter pinned to it. She opened it and began to read.
Lilly,
One bear for each day that I have been lucky enough to have you as my partner, my love, my other half.
All my love,
Al
P.S. You look stunning today, but you are normally break takingly gorgeous you do not need all that make up.
Just as Lilly read the P.S. it disappeared (Not the entire Letter, just the P.S.)
All the girls around her took turns reading the letter.
Oh my God Lilly, that is the sweetest thing I have ever read," Annie said.
"I know Al is the greatest man I have even known," Lilly said with a loving sigh.
Chris had enough. He got up and stormed out of the great hall without even touching his breakfast.
