James pulled out his wand and muttered something under his breath. All of a sudden Severus was suspended three feet in the air, upside down with his robes up over his head.
"Ha look at his filthy grey boxers!" Sirius yelled.
"You'll never get a girl that way Snivelus." James jeered.
" Do you mummy still do your washing?" Sirius said now rolling about laughing.
" Hey guys come off it." Remus said looking up from his book.
" NO!" James laughed manically.
"JAMES POTTER!" a shrill voice came from behind him. "You better stop that! You are a horrible person."
"LILY!" James screamed, letting Severus drop to the floor. Severus quickly got up from the floor and ran back to the castle.
"Run back to mummy!" Sirius yelled after him, then he felt a heavy book hit his head as Lily threw her Potions book at him.
"Oww!" he said rubbing his head.
"Lily it was only a joke, I am sorry, I wont do it again." James groveled. Lily rolled her eyes, grabbed her book and ran after Severus.
Severus was sat in the corridor on the way to the dungeons, he had his head in his arms and wiping the tears out of his eyes with his sleeve. Lily rounded the corner and saw him sitting on the floor. "Sev?" she said quietly. He jumped up and wiped his eyes.
"What!" he snapped.
"I just…"
"I don't want your sympathy! Gryffindor scum!" he said as he turned and stormed down the corridor.
"But Sev!" she yelled, she go no reply as he kept on walking. " I love you."
