Chapter6: What he did not write.

Gertrude took the scenic route, around the big tree and over the lake then back to the girls dorm, which was only two windows away from the boy's. She tapped on the window incessantly until finally Lily threw it open.

Having seen the owl she shouted "Bloody Gertrude!" The owl stopped and sat the Letter on the inside of the window, winked at her, again, and flew off to see if James' window was still open.

Lily turned around quickly. "Did anyone else see that? I'm telling you that owl winks at me." Olivia and Meg laughed. "Well, I'm glad that cheered you both up." She picked up the letter and closed the window. "It's from James," she said, sighing, "Do I even read this one?" She held it over the trash bin.

"Read it." Olivia said, "He's really nice if you just give him a chance." She held it in front of her, with both hands.

"Burn it!" Meg yelled crazily. Lily held it over the bin again, and raised an eyebrow. "I was just kidding." Meg laughed.

Lily plopped down on Meg's bed, which was by the window, and unfolded the heart shape.

Dearest Lily,
I'm sorry for pulling you under that mistletoe. I was really just trying to help you, I promise. I really had no idea it was up there, and I would have given you the option to pretend it never happened if you had just stuck around. I'm being perfectly serious when I say that I am sorry you felt like you had to kiss me.
Potter.

She gasped; that was unexpected.

Meg asked teasingly "Was it poetry or prose this time, Lil?"

"I think he was seriously apologizing." Lily said slowly. She flipped the letter over to look for the words 'just kidding!' but she did not find them. She didn't know what to do. Was she accepting of his apology, or would he make a fool of her? "Maybe," she thought, "he's playing a prank on me. But if he's not I would feel terrible."

"Lils?" Meg said, "you've been quiet for a long time."

"Er. Sorry." Lily said. She threw the letter over onto her bed, which was beyond meg's, behind her. "Forget this. Liv, did you eat any of those beans yet? Your list is getting dusty." Olivia blushed, and grabbed her bag.

"Meggie, can I speak with you?" Lily walked over to the door. Meg jumped up.

"We'll see you at lunch, Liv. That is, if you don't eat all of those." Olivia smiled. Meg and Lily walked out

She set the bag on the floor and slid it underneath her bed. Remus was the last person she felt like thinking about, but she couldn't help it. She didn't even know if she really love him anymore. It felt a lot like love an hour ago. But, now . . . Well, now she just didn't know. She reached under and picked up the bag, and thought "to eat them, or not, that is the question, whether 'tis nobler to love thy gift, or consume it." She pulled out one bean, but set it back in the bag, set the bag back on the floor and slid it under her bed again. Olivia nearly collapsed in confusion, just so she could sleep to get this world out of her thoughts, but decided to find Lily and Meg. She knew they left her in hear to be alone, but she was lonely, and didn't feel like getting any sadder.

Olivia got up to find them, but felt no need to look any farther then the voices outside the door. She sat down and joined them. Apparently Lily felt bad for James, she didn't hate him, she pitied him, and now she didn't know what to do.

"I really don't know," Meg said, she fiddled with her necklace, Lily looked at her funny.

"Where'd you get that?" she asked.

"Oh, it was a Christmas present." Meg said, looking distractedly at the wall, hiding the necklace with her hand.

"Let's see it Meg." Olivia said sweetly. Meg unclasped it, and handed it to Olivia.

"Who gave it to you?" Lily asked.

"I-" at that point they heard the melodious click, and Olivia was staring in awe at the open locket. She was getting teary-eyed before she closed it, and handed it back

"That was the most beautiful music I've ever heard." Olivia said.

"What music?" Lily asked, concerned for Olivia's mental state. Meg handed it over. When Lily opened it she blinked several times, and her face softened, finally she clicked it shut, and when she handed it back, she just said quietly, "Wow."

"Yeah," Meg said, nodding her head, "It's pretty neat huh?"

"It's amazing." Olivia said, still in awe.

"Who gave you that?" Lily said amazed. Meg began to feel uncomfortable with the whole situation.

"I- I don't know." She said.

"Someone gave you that, and didn't want credit for it?" Lily said.

"Someone really loves you, Meg." Olivia whispered.

"Yeah," Meg said, kind of sad that she had to wait till valentine's day to find out who. "They left a note. It said to meet them on valentine's day"

"That's a really long time to wait." Olivia said amazed.

"Yeah," Meg said. "I think I'm going to head down for lunch," She stood up, clutching the necklace,"Take the scenic route or something . . ."
