Chapter Five:
The next morning Lily was the first to wake. She quickly pulled on her clothes and rushed downstairs, not wanting to waste a moment of the day. Downstairs she found a few other first years standing around talking excitedly about the night before. Lily joined in with a couple other students as Erica made her way downstairs.
A short while later other years made their way down along with John. "Good morning!" Erica greeted him brightly. He pushed her slightly out of the way to walk by.
"Not a morning person?" Lily asked him as he walked past. He grunted slightly and ran into the door on his way out of the portrait. Lily and Erica giggled with each other on their way down stairs to the Great Hall.
Lily and Erica found John already eating at the table. They sat on either side of him as he ate. He seemed a bit more chipper.
"Morning." He said to them and passed the toast to Lily. Lily grabbed a few pieces then set it back down as Professor McGonagall walked by them and gave them their schedules. The three stared down at their schedules together.
"Defense against the dark arts, history of magic, and transfiguation for the morning." John said to the others. Lily sighed.
"Potions, flying lessons, herbology and charms in the afternoon." Erica set her schedule down on the table. She stood as other students began to walk out of the Hall for their first lessons.
"Hey, Potter! Did you drop something you mudblood lover." Lily whipped around. A first year boy stood behind them holding Lily's wand. He had slicked back blonde hair. He belonged to Slytherin.
Lily stormed over. "Give me that!" She grabbed it out of his hands. The boy jumped back and started to laugh.
"Oh no the mudblood lover is going to touch me!" His three friends around him started to laugh. Lily stared at him angrily. "What are you talking about?"
The boy stepped forward again. "Isn't your mother a mudblood lover? That makes you one too." He laughed again. Then he noticed John behind her.
"Is that my cousin there, Johnny?" The boy walked over to John, who looked terrified. The boy but his arm around John. Lily turned around to look at them.
"Is that a Gryffindor badge on your robes?" He picked at John's robes. Him and his friends began to laugh.
"Well I'd love to stay and chat but I have to go to class. See you around Johnny." The boy and his Slytherin friends left. John turned toward them.
"I'll explain later." He said miserably to Lily and Erica's questionable faces.
