I'm sorry that it's taken this long to get this published, my computer crashed a couple of weeks ago and I've been using my mom's but I don't have much time to write at the moment. But here you go with a chapter at least. Hope you like it :)

Chapter 8: You're so lucky!

In the morning of the 14th of February, Evangeline woke up with a foul mood. She had not gotten any real sleep during the night, the images of Abraham Nott still haunted her nightmares. The nightmares were different from night to night with the exception that they always contained Evangeline murdering someone. In this dream she had reflected the killing curse towards James by mistake. The last thing she saw before waking up with tears streaming down her cheeks was the smirk of Abraham Nott as he laughed at her for killing her best friend. It had felt so real, not like a dream. The morning just got worse as she realized that all of the girls had over slept and missed breakfast, she had missed lunch and dinner yesterday because she was studying in the library. She swore under her breath but quickly dressed in her uniform, she didn't need to be late to the lesson as well.

"Are you ready girls?" Alice asked, the other three nodded. Evangeline grabbed her bag and slung it over her shoulder before leaving the dorm. The Gryffindor common room was empty as everyone was probably finishing up their breakfast right about now.

"What class do we have now?" Cassandra asked, Evangeline chuckled. Cassandra was the most confused person she knew, she could never remember things and even though they had attended Hogwarts since September last year she still didn't know their schedule. Lily gave her friend an amused smile.

"We have herbology Cassie" she answered her friend. The girls walked down the hallways, Evangeline was in her own world while the other three talked about the fact that it was Valentine's Day today. Evangeline hadn't pulled herself together fully after the nightmare. James had told her after the attack on the platform that she had showed some powerful magic that not all adult people could handle, and she was only eleven. Why had her eyes turned red while she used her magic? They didn't turn red when she used her magic in classes so she could not understand why they did that time. She had searched for answers in her precious books but she had found nothing. There was no explanation to it. Then there was the prick Alessandro Zabini, he had been so rude to her the other day she did not feel like talking to him ever again but at the same time she needed to figure out how he could have been aware of the attack. Her first thought had been that he was a death eater but she had dismissed that theory since she had been told that you must be 17 years old to be able to be counted among the death eaters. So how could he have known? And why had he told her about it? He apparently didn't consider her a friend since he said those awful things to her, but what reason was there for him to warn her if he didn't see her a as a friend? There was none. To make it even worse, the attacks had almost doubled the last couple of weeks. The death eaters attacked often and showed no mercy while doing so. Each day the paper would be filled with articles about the people who had died people whose relatives attended Hogwarts. When she saw people receiving the letter that their parent, their sibling, their grandparents or any other close family had been killed, her insides would turn. She could not stand seeing the sorrow that plagued many of Hogwarts students at the moment. She was pulled out of her thoughts as a bouquet of red roses appeared in front of her. She looked at them strangely before grabbing them. The three other girls squealed.

"You're so lucky Eva, somebody has sent you roses." Alice said with excitement.

"Yeah, you already have a valentine and we haven't even reached our first lesson" Cassie said in awe. Evangeline merely shrugged, she did not see the greatness with Valentine's Day.

"Well read the card where it says who it is from!" Lily exclaimed at her, Evangeline rolled her eyes but glanced down reading the small note attached with the roses.
Happy birthday my sweet Gryffindor Angel, I wish for you to have a good day/Amos Diggory

"What does he mean with Gryffindor's Angel?" Evangeline whispered to herself, but the girls caught her words.

"Oh that's a nickname that people have come up with for you" Alice explained, Evangeline frowned, why did she not know this? The others looked impatiently at her.

"Come on Eva, tell us who it's from!" Cassie exclaimed, Evangeline snapped out of her thoughts as she once again glanced down at the card.

"It's from Amos Diggory" she told them, the three girls squealed and looked at her with wide eyes.

"Not only did you get a Valentine's card Eva" Alice started the sentence.

"But you got it from an older guy" Lily continued.

"That's like the best thing you can get on Valentine's Day!" Cassie finished.

"Come on guys, its flowers and a card. It's no big deal" Evangeline tried to tell them but they refused to listen and the last walk to the greenhouse they spent talking about how sweet Amos was. When they reached the greenhouse Evangeline said goodbye to the girls and walked over to where the Marauders were standing. Remus was the first one to spot her and gave her a kind smile, he glanced down at the flowers in her arms and raised an eye brow at her.

"They appeared out of nowhere" she explained as she reached them, the other three swirled around and smiled at her. James narrowed his eyes behind his glasses.

"Who are they from?" he asked, Evangeline avoided his suspicious gaze. Sirius rolled his eyes, stretched out his hand and took the flowers from her.

"Sirius stop" Evangeline protested but it was in vain. All the four guys looked at note attached to the flowers. James looked up with a frown.

"Why would Amos Diggory send you flowers?" he asked, Evangeline shrugged. She was beginning to become annoyed by the guys behaviour. Seriously it was just flowers!

"I don't know, I guess he thinks I deserve flowers or something" Evangeline answered him. Sirius glared her.

"And why would he call you his Gryffindor Angel?" he asked her, okay Evangeline had enough of this.

"I don't know why he would do that your bloody prick, will the two of you just leave it. For gods sake, it was just some bloody flowers!" she snapped at them before turning to the teacher who was about to begin the lesson. James and Sirius exchanged glances between her back and shook their heads, that girl sure had a temper.

Evangeline was starving when it was time for lunch, James and Sirius had left her alone and honestly she didn't mind if the only thing they were going to do was interrogate her about some stupid flowers. When she walked into the Great Hall she spotted the girls as well as the Marauders but she did not feel like sitting next to any of them so she was grateful when Fabian spotted her and waved for her to come and sit with them. She placed herself next to Gideon who slung an arm around her shoulders and drew her into a side hug.

"How you're doing today Eve?" Fabian asked, Evangeline looked up from her mission of filling her plate with at much food as possible.

"Okay I guess, but I'm starving at the moment" she replied, the brothers glanced down at her plate and chuckled.

"Yeah we can see that" Gideon commented, Evangeline looked down at her plate and realized that it looked quite funny.

"Yeah well I'm not one of those girls that do not eat, I love my food" she laughed.

"That's the spirit" Fabian said with a smile playing on his lips. Evangeline began eating while Fabian and Gideon discussed the upcoming qudditch game against Ravenclaw. Suddenly a small heart shaped box appeared in front of Evangeline. Fabian and Gideon stopped their discussion and frowned at the chocolate box in front of their friend. Evangeline took the box and looked at the note attached to it.

Happy Valentine's Day Angel of Gryffindor/Secret friend

She frowned at the note, she could feel Fabian and Gideon staring at her.

"Who was it from?" Gideon asked, Evangeline shrugged.

"No idea, the only thing it says is that it's from a secret friend." She responded, Fabian took the box out of her hands and looked at it. He opened it and found loads of chocolate inside. He smiled at her.

"Well looks like someone is popular today" Fabian commented with a laugh. Gideon nodded in agreement.

"Heard you got flowers before too" He continued, Fabian nodded.

"And you're a first years so wait until you're a fifth year, you're going to have quite some admires by then" Fabian finished, Evangeline rolled her eyes.

"Yeah cause I'm the kind of girl who cares wheatear guys admire me or not" Evangeline said with a roll of her eyes, the two others laughed at her.

"You're one of a kind Eva, that's for sure" Gideon laughed, and then glanced down at the chocolate. Evangeline followed his gaze and knew what he wanted.

"Yes you can take one Gideon, I am taking one too" she said and reached for the chocolate, Gideon grinned widely and they both put the chocolate into their mouths. Fabian laughed at their expression, theirs eyes were closed and a small smile of satisfaction played on their lips, they surer were enjoying that chocolate. Fabian was about to take one when suddenly he noticed a change in his friends. They were both growing pale, they no longer looked like they were enjoying their chocolate.

"Hey are you…" he didn't finish his sentence because suddenly both Evangeline and Gideon fell of the bench and onto the floor, both were unconscious. Fabian quickly reacted and stood up, shouting at the professors for help. The Marauders who sat down the table, stood up at the sight of Evangeline on the floor. James and Sirius were the first ones to reach her, James fell on his knees besides her.

"Angel, come on, wake up" he whispered in her ear, holding her closely to his body. The professors rushed down from their table, through the crowd of people that was forming around the two bodies. People were whispering, who could have done this? Was it one of the Slytherins maybe? Fabian jumped over the table and kneeled beside his brother. Professor Dumbledore reached the group.

"Hurry, they must be taken to the Hospital Wing immediately" he said, using his wand to levitate the two out of the Great Hall with their anxious friends following behind…
