A Very Merry Christmas Indeed
As Lily looked at James, he ran his hands through his hair. "What is going on?" he asked, hiding the pain in his voice with difficulty.
She looked up. "I don't think you want to know," she muttered, shuttering her eyes from him.
Oh Lily, he thought, how very wrong you are right now.
He turned his attention to the doors, waiting for Short to enter.
Lily, realizing what he was planning on doing, placed a hand on James arm. "Don't," she whispered brokenly, "you'll just make it worse. He was mad at me, for just wanting to come down to eat. I don't know what he'd do if he realized I told you."
James looked at her, confusion and anger warring in his eyes. "He shouldn't be allowed to do this to you, Lils. I have to do something."
She shook her head, keeping her hand on his arm. "Don't," she whispered again, but he ignored her and shook the hand off.
She watched as he stalked off toward the doors.
He was going to do something that she knew would come back to her.
A/N: well here is part two, hope you liked it even though it was short. They will get longer, hopefully. Review?
