"JAMES! Give it a rest," I cried, clamping my hands over my ears to annoy the oh-so-annoying-wine of James Potter. "But Evans!" he exclaimed, rumpling his hair (gag) "I wont see you for another THREE MONTHS! I think I might die of separation anxiety!" he dramatically clutched his heart, grinning. Remus chuckled and I turned to him. "You think this," I gestured to James, who was now singing the 'Lily' song "is funny!"
Oooooh Lily, with her hair so shiny and bright
Please forgive me for stalking you that night!
And the way you yell at me in class,
I don't ever mind if you'd kick my-
"WE'RE HERE!" Bella squealed excitedly, cutting of James's…'singing' (although I doubt you could justify SCREAMING at the top of you lungs as singing).
"Uh…great," I sighed to myself. I wasn't looking forward to seeing Petunia, and I'm sure as hell she didn't want to see me. "Don't worry Lily, you're going to be staying at my house for almost half the summer," Charlie comforted quietly so that the others couldn't hear. I grinned and looked up.
THAT perked me up considerably. I mean imagine Bella, Charlie, and I all in one vicinity that isn't a school.
MUAHAHAHAHA.
Oh the possibilities…
When I got back from my little evil thoughts, I realized that everyone was staring at me as I giggled manically.
Shit.
"What? You've never seen a girl imagine shooting James Potter before?" I asked innocently.
"Huh?" asked Bella.
"Wait what?" asked Peter.
"What's shooting?" asked Sirius.
"Did I hear something about Evans imagining about me?" James asked, grinning.
"Shooting, it's a muggle thing right? With the guns and stuff?" Remus asked.
Charlie just started laughing hysterically. At least SHE got it.
"Oh come off it, didn't you guys pay attention in muggle studies?" I exclaimed.
"NO!" cried James, Sirius, Peter, and Bella. I groaned.
"Dears, I suggest you get off the train," said the plump trolley lady. "We were just leaving," James said, smiling charmingly. She smiled back. "Such a nice boy," she said to herself, walking down the hall.
Once we were outside, everyone else was quickly gone, shouting goodbyes and what not as they left. Potter and I, however, couldn't find our parents anywhere.
Yippee.
Stuck with good ole' pot head.
"Maybe they're waiting outside the wall…" he suggested. Seeming as that was the only area we hadn't checked, I begrudgingly admitted he was right. As we walked, he talked (HEY A RHYME).
"So why wouldn't you go out with me?" he asked. I laughed.
HA
"I'm being serious," he said. "God I'd hope not, I mean who'd want to be Sirius?" I asked, chuckling. "It wasn't funny the first time I heard that joke, and it's not funny the billionth time," he grumbled, still looking at me to answer his question. We walked through the wall as I began to answer. "Fine! Because-" "Lillian! Oh my dear I missed you so much!" my mother cried, smothering me. James crossed his arms; clearly annoyed he hadn't gotten an answer. I broke off and saw a lovely woman with brown hair and warm hazel eyes looking down at me. "So this is Lily? Your mom has told me so much about you," she exclaimed. Those eyes looked a lot like…
Uh oh
"Mum?" James asked, coming out form behind me. "Hello James!" she smiled, embracing him. Me, being as poised as ever, opened my mouth ever so slightly so that I resembled a codfish.
Awkward…
Seriously
Crickets chirping
Chirp
Chirp
"Well we'd best be off," my dad said hastily, walking away with my trunk and owl in tow. "Alright dear," my mother called out as he turned to leave, "Oh and Jane, don't forget!" she said, turning the James's mom. "I wont Susan, see you later," she smiled, waving at me. I cocked my eyebrow up questioningly, but my mother ignored it.
Better not to ask questions with that one…
James gave me one last smirk before turning and leaving with his mother, leaving me with…the thing.
"Lily darling, your hair is awful! Didn't you use the conditioner I sent you? And your sweater had a stain! Have you been eating chocolate frogs again? My dear you cant risk all that extra sugar, not with the ball coming up so-"
I looked around frantically and looked for ways to escape.
"HEY DAD, YOU NEED ANY HELP?"
I called loudly. Of course he'd already packed all the bags but my purse.
"No thanks honey, I got it."
Damn him.
"Lillian! Are you listening to me? Your ball dress is-"
It had begun.
