Torn

As James walked to breakfast, the next morning, people were swarming over to him.

"James! Is it true that you and Katelin broke up?"

"Did you two really have a dueling match after you broke up?"

"Is it true that Katelin slapped you?"

"Did she really drown herself?"

"James! I love you! Please marry me!"

"Is it true you were having an affair with her friend?"

"Are you really gay?"

James walked past them, trying his level best to ignore them.

But they kept badgering him...

"James! Will you go out with me?"

"James! Is it true that you two are secretly engaged?"

"James! Are you in love with Peter Pettigrew?"

James cracked.

"ARGH! ALL OF YOU SHUT UP!"He yelled, before running down the hall at top speed.

Now, he knew what it felt for Lily when he kept, asking her out.

Throwing this thought, out of his mind, he ran into the Hall, to join Sirius, Remus and Peter at the Gryffindor table.

Huffing and puffing, he collasped next to Sirius.

"Hey, mate, what's with you?"Remus asked, concerned.

James tried to explain, while trying to catch his breath."Girls-scary-stalking-gay-Katelin..."

The rest of the Marauders remained to look confused.

"Er, Prongs? Could you...talk sense?"Sirius asked.

Before James could answer, the crowd of people burst into the hall, yelling James' name.

James shrieked and jumped under the table.

"Well, that explains it..."Remus said, slightly amused.

"Count yourself lucky."Sirius said, looking miserable.

"Padfoot, what's up?"Remus asked.

"Yeah, what could be worse than a bunch of nosy gits?"James added.

"Allanah." Sirius whimpered."Our 'date' was awful! She was worse than Holly! Now she's forced me to go to the Ball with her!"

James, Sirius and Peter shuddered at the name, Holly.

"Poor you." James said, sympathetically.

"Yeah, though you shouldn't have tried to make ME go on a date with her."Remus added.

"Why don't you just tell her you don't like her?"Peter asked, baffled.

The other three Marauders stared at him, as if he was crazy.

"ARE YOU MAD!"They all yelled, at once.

"She'd fry me alive! And i don't want to be fried."Sirius exclaimed, shuddering.

"Siri-poo!"

Sirius groaned, as if he was in intense pain, as the familiar blonde walked over to him.


Lily was sitting in Charms class, concentrating on the page they were on.

"Hey, did you hear? Katelin Ford and James Potter broke up!"

Lily's head whipped around.

"Of course i heard it! I heard it ages go!"The girl's friend spoke.

Lily's eyes widened. It was true, then.

James Potter was free.

Maybe. Just maybe, she had a chance...

For the rest of the class, Lily smiled, planning to ask a certain James Potter to the dance...


James was walking out of the Transfiguration Classroom.

He was deep in thought and had a certain red head on his mind.

He couldn't take it, anymore. He loved her.

He would ask her to the dance and show her how James Potter could be...

Out of nowhere, he heard a load of footsteps.

He looked up, curiously.

A crowd of girls were running towards him...

"JAMES! GO TO THE BALL WITH ME!"

"NO! DON'T LISTEN TO HER! GO WITH ME!"

"TAKE ME!"

"NO! ME!"

James began to run, as fast as he could, away from them.

But these girls were determined.

They chase him around the school, begging for a date.

James continued running. Now, they were officially scaring him!

He accidently knocked into someone.

He quickly picked himself up and muttered a sorry, before taking off, again.

Before he got far, the person said,"And where do you think you're going, Mr Potter?"

He swung around, so fast that he toppled over and landed on his backside.

It was Professor McGonagall.

"Professor- I-I didn't mean to run in the hall and knock into you! They were chasing me! They-"James started stuttering.

McGonagall glared at him."And who, may i ask, is 'they'?"

Right on timing, the crowd of girls rushed into the hallway and began shouting again.

James shrieked and tried to run. But he tripped over again.

When he stood up, he saw McGonagall actually smiling, in amusement.

"Back to your common rooms, ladies."She said, sharply.

The girls groaned but obeyed.

"But Professor! Aren't you going to give them, detention!"James asked, indignantly.

"No, Potter. I do not think it is nesessary for me to fit 300 girls into my classroom."

"B-but..."James started.

But McGonagall looked at him, sternly.

So, he retreated back to his dormitory.


Lily was standing in the hall, where James had left.

She didn't have the smile on her face, anymore.

She had seen all those pretty girls after James.

She felt that she wasn't good enough for James. Why on earth would he be with her, when he could be with any girl in the entire school?

Lily felt tears trickle down her cheeks.

"I'll never be good enough for him."She thought, bitterly,

She walked away, sadly, as she decided to give up on James Potter.


James was looking for Lily.

He had to ask her to the ball...but Lily wasn't anywhere to be seen...


Lily walked into her room and flung herself onto her bed.

After a good cry, she sat up and wiped some tears off her face.

Her eyes landed on her diary.

She opened it and flicked through the pages.

Her gaze landed on the last entry.

She ripped it out, violently and threw it as hard as she could, to the corner of her room.

She was too mad to worry about being tidy, right now.

She eventually decided to go to the grounds to let off her stress.

She sat by the lake, staring into the deep water.

Her faint reflection stared back at her.

Suddenly, there was a tap on her shoulder.

She spun around and her eyes landed on Amos Diggory.

"Oh, er...Hi, Lily."He said, charmingly.

She gave him a little smile."Hi."

"Hey. I was wondering if you wanted to go to the dance with me."


James stopped searching inside the castle. He came outside.

He was about to turn right from the entrance when he heard someone.

"Sure. I would love to go to the ball with you."

The voice was familiar.

He turned around, sharply.

It was Lily Evans.

She was smiling at Amos Diggory.

James' eyes grew wide, as Amos gave her a quick kiss on her lips.

His heart broken, once again, heran back into the castle...

He was torn into pieces.


A/N: Please don't get mad for making Lily go out with Diggory... I just thought it would be interesting...
