Chapter 1
"Uh, Lily?"
"What…erm…Cecilia?" Lily retorted tartly to the blonde.
"Oh, its just, you dropped your book back there, so…here." Cecilia replied, handing Lily her transfiguration folder.
"What? Oh, thanks. Well, I gotta go, y'now, places to be, people to see…" Lily trailed off vaguely, continuing her walk to the heads meeting room.
"You're late." James commented as she walked into the room.
"Really? You don't say." Lily snapped back, throwing her bag on the table and slouching into the chair.
"Um…are you okay Lily?" James asked hesitantly.
"Oh, yeah. Peachy."
"I'm going to go right ahead and assume that that was sarcastic," He said "Do you want to talk about it?"
"Talk about what?" She asked.
"Whatever it is that has you looking like you're a step away from decapitating me."
"I'm surprised you don't know about it yet." She said scornfully.
"I'm going to go right ahead and assume that there is something to do with me behind your murderous expression" James stated.
"Where were you on Saturday?" Lily suddenly.
"Um, Hogsmeade, why, where were you?" He said unsurely.
"Apparently in a room above the Hogs Head with you."
"She's original, isn't she?" James asked with I kind of angry amusement.
"WHO? Do you know who did this?" Lily demanded.
"Sophie." He said simply.
"How do you know?" Lily asked, her anger gone and replaced by grim patheticness.
"She offered to book us a room there…"
"…And you said no." Lily said, also smiling.
"What kind of people do these people think we are?" James asked, breaking a long silence.
"Need I answer that Question?" Lily asked "What do we need to discuss now?"
"Nothing" James replied.
"Nothing!"
"Yea, there's nothing new to address." James confirmed.
"Then why am I here?" Lily asked.
"I could ask myself the same question." James said, staring off into space thoughtfully.
"That was so random." Lily said
"Really?" James asked.
"Sow hows things in the life of James?" Lily asked, ignoring his dumb question.
"Yeah, you know, I'm still here."
"I know what you mean." Lily said sympathetically
"have you done that stupid essay for Transfiguration yet?" James asked her.
"Yeah, I was just in the library finishing it," Lily said. "Why, haven't you?"
"Actually, I was going to offer to help you, but if you don't need it, maybe we should just go." He suggested.
"Oh, yeah, sure." Lily said, a bit startled by his abrupt departure.
"See you tomorrow." James said, walking out of the door, leaving a very confused Lily Evans in his wake.
Why has he gone off me all of a sudden?
"Like, ohmigod, Lily, have you, like, done something different with your hair?" Claire asked Lily as the large group made their way to breakfast the following morning.
"Yeah, I have" Lily replies, fingering her hair, which she had set in loose curls with a black plastic headband, her fringe coming down on her eyes like a Venetian blind.
"Well, it looks, like, totally fantastic!" Claire said.
"Thanks," Lily replied, "what's first again?"
"We have Potions first." Promptly replied Fergonvoliolilongboka.
"well, we'd better get going, we're a bit late today." Lily said vaguely.
"Oh, okay then, well, we'll see you during break then." Sally said, going off to her divination class with everyone else except for Fergonvoloililongboka, who was the only other person beside Lily to get into NEWT potions. Stupid friends.
"Good morning class!" Slughorn boomed some 15 minutes later. "onwards and upwards with yesterdays potions!"
"Sir, if we go 'Upwards' with our potions, d'you mean on a broom or something?" Sirius Black asked mockingly.
"I'd like to see you try and make a potion on a broomstick, Black." Lily said as she passed the table that he, Remus and James were sitting at.
"Ease off, Lily." James said.
She did a double take to look at James.
"I was just having a joke." She said.
"yea, well I don't appreciate people making jokes about my best friend!" James said.
"Geez James, what crawled up your ass and died?" Lily asked before she could stop herself, though she went on her way to the storage cupboard.
"Who put the stick up your arse?" he shot to her back.
"Would you like to say that again, James?" she asked turning to him with a death glare.
"I said, 'who put the stick up your arse?'" James repeated boldly.
"Whats going on over here?" Slughorn asked suspiciously, hobbleing over to the scene.
"Nothing, Proffesor. I was just getting my extra ingredients." Lily replied, throwing one last look at James before stalking hautily back to her table.
"What happened there?" Fergonvoliolilongboka asked Lily.
"James is in a mood." Lily explained, smashing her Sopophorous Bean roughly with the flat of her silver dagger.
"Aren't you supposed to chop it?" Fergonvoliolilongboka asked.
"Yea, " Lily replied, "whatever floats your boat..." she added with a vindictive roll of the eye.
"Lily! Your potion is moving along beautifully!" Slughorn boomed.
"Thankyou Professor..." Lily muttered.
"You know,I really do think you should have been a Slytherin Lily..." He said.
"So you find me a power hungry, manipulating, greasy little dimwit, Professor?" She asked.
"I'm sorry? i don't understand." Slughorn said.
"You said that I should have been a Slytherin. I asked you if you thought of me as the characteristics of a Slytherin." Lily explained.
"Yes...well..." Slughorn trailed off emabarassedly, "Oh, Mister Black, how is that dear mother of yours these days?" He said walking away from Lily.
