Chapter Five – A Past Brought Back to the Present
Lily went into her dormitory, slapping the door behind her. Her tears were running down her face after holding them in for so long. "Non e lui, non e lui," she repeated to herself. How could that be? Lily went to her trunk and grabbed her photo album that she brought from home. She turned the cover to find a picture of her and James, standing in front of a pond. She turned to the other page to find it to only be Jay, James Potter. There the boy stood with the same hazel eyes as now, messy hair and that innocent smile. She didn't know that she realized how much she had missed him in the last few years.
Flashback:
"Happy Birthday James!" said Rosaline Evans with little Lily by her side. "Mrs. Evans did you make chocolate cake for me?" asked the happy James as he saw a box in Mrs. Evans' hands. "James Harold Potter how rude of you!" exclaimed his mother. Lily giggled to see James give his mother a puppy face. "Jay really likes mummy's cake that's why," said Lily.
End of Flashback:
Lily had always remembered that James had loved her mother's cake and she loved the honey, chocolate chip cookies, Mrs. Potter had made. Even though her mother made them for her, the cookies never tasted the like Mrs. Potter had made them. Suddenly there were steps close to the door; she quickly shoved the album into her bedside table. She wiped her tears away before Maddie even opened the door. "Lily, are you okay?" asked Maddie as Alexa and Roxy came behind her. "I'm fine really, molto bene!" she said with a smile.
Alexa and Roxy looked at each other before sitting next to Lily. "We know that we just met you, but we can see it in your eyes Lily," said Alexa. Tears fell from her eyes again as she looked up at them. "It's just I haven't seen J- him in so long and to discover that h-he looks different," she answered as she looked down. "What do you mean by different, Lily?" questioned Roxy as her and the other two had smiles on their faces. "Like handsome, cute, good looking?" asked Maddie. Lily stood up and went to the window, why did she have to say that.
"I don't know, it's late and we have classes tomorrow," she said as she went to get her pajamas to change. The girls agreed since they really didn't want to upset her even more. As this was happening the boys were off to a worst start. After the girls went upstairs, James went up to his room after repairing the frame. Once they were all inside (Peter fell asleep) and sitting, Sirius decided to break the quietness. "Um… well at least you know she turned into a well formed-," James grabbed the front of Sirius' robes before he could finish. "Shut up Sirius!" he said angrily.
Remus went into between of them, afraid that James was going to kill Sirius. "James stop he turning purple!" yelled Remus as he pulled James off. Sirius was coughing and gasping for air as he looked at his friend be held back. "James, you know he didn't mean that and Sirius stop saying stupid things because their going to get you killed soon," said Remus as he looked at them. "Sorry mate," muttered Sirius as he looked at James. James nodded. "Sorry about trying to kill you," he said as he smiled a bit. It went quiet again, as James ran a hand through his hair.
"It won't be the first time," answered Sirius with a grin. "About Lily…," started Remus, as he and Sirius turned to James. "It's late and we start classes tomorrow, let's talk about it in the morning," said James before Remus could utter another word. The three boys got changed and quickly got into bed. As the lights went off, James looked at the picture at his bedside table. What were those mixed feelings he was feeling for Lily Evans, now that he found her again.
He slowly fell asleep with the dream of him and Lily becoming the good friends they were before. "James, wake up," whispered Remus as he tried to shake his friend the next morning. Sirius came and rolled his eyes at Remus. "Five years and still doesn't get how to wake Prongs," he muttered to himself, "stand aside Moony I'll wake sleeping beauty." Remus stands to the side and watches how Sirius bent over. "HEY, PRONGS WAKE UP!" Sirius shouted in James' ear. Nothing happened, not even that woke the sleeping Potter. "Oh screw the nice way," Sirius said as he flicked his wand to bring a bucket of ice cold water.
It floated over James' head and slowly it tipped to the side and - SPLASH! The water fell on James's face; he woke up with a shocked look on his face. He got up gasping for air as he looked down to see Remus and Sirius rolling on the floor as they laughed. "Hahaha… very funny Sirius!" mocked James as he got up and muttered a quick drying charm on him and his bed. Sirius got up with some help of Remus who had already calmed down. "Hey, think of it this way Jamesie at least you had your shower," said Sirius as he burst into laughter again.
After the boys got dresses and headed down to the common room only to see the prima donnas coming down from their dorms too. Lily looked over and her smile disappeared at the sight of James. "Come on Lily, you have to see Adam Diggory, he's gorgeous!" exclaimed Maddie. "Who's Adam Diggory?" asked Lily as she glanced back at James. "He's a sixth year Hufflepuff, his brother Amos Diggory graduated last year and Adam is only the most handsome guy in school," said Alexa.
The girls walked out of the common room with the portrait closing behind them. James didn't even notice that had crushed a piece of parchment in his hand. "Are you okay?" asked Remus. "I'm fine, let's go have breakfast," said James with an angered tone. Sirius and Remus glanced at each other before following James out of the common room. Just as they arrived to the Gryffindor table to only see that the seats that were only free were across of the prima donnas. To sit down and tried not to pay attention to what the Prima Donnas were saying.
"Hey, look its Adam," said Alexa pointing out a handsome goy that came in. "Adam!" yelled Maddie making the boy turn around to look at her. Maddie waved him over to the Gryffindor table. He walked over to their table. "Hey Maddie, how was your summer?" he asked before giving her a friendly hug. Sirius was holding his forkful of hash browns tightly, making his knuckles go white. "It was great, how was yours?" she said while he greeted Alexa and Roxy. "Good, Amos sends his greetings.
And I don't believe we met before," said Adam before turning to Lily. He flashed a smile making Lily blush a light red and smiling at him. "This is Lily Evans, just came from Italy," said Alexa. "Un bell nome per una flore," he said as he kissed her hand lightly. "Grazie," Lily thanked him for the compliment. James was holding his goblet filled with pumpkin juice tightly as he watched Lily smile at Diggory. "I didn't know you spoke Italian?" asked Roxy. "It's one of my many charms and I have to since we go to Rome in the summers," he said.
James didn't understand how Diggory comes and already enchants Lily off her feet. "Lily, I'm sure a bella girl like you, must have boyfriend back in Rome," he asked. "I had a few admirers, but no boyfriend," she answered. "Then would you like to join me for the first Hogsmead trip in October, to show you around our little corner of the wizardly world," he asked. "I don't think she can Diggory, you see Lils will be joining me in Hogsmead," interrupted James before Lily had a chance to answer. Lily glared at him before turning to Adam. "I would love to join you Adam," said Lily, smiling at him.
Adam looked at James and smirked at him before answering him. "Well, it looks like she will be coming with me Potter, maybe next time you will have a better chance," James was burning with jealously and hurt that Lily turned him down in front of Diggory. "Ciao mi bell flore," he said as kissed her hand and went off with his friends. "What did he say?" asked James to Remus. "I have no idea," said Remus. As Adam walked by girls near by giggled as Adam flashed them his charming smile, and others sighed loudly. "Lily, you're so lucky!" exclaimed Alexa.
"I don't see what's the fuss about it's only Diggory, now if it were me or Prongs then that's a big deal," said Sirius. "Shut up Black," said Maddie as she rolled her eyes. "Look my darling Maddie why don't you come with me to Hogsmead?" he asked. "I made that mistake once don't think it will happen again Black," answered Maddie before grabbing her bag and leaving the Great Hall. Lily was about to get up, but Roxy shook her head. "At times like that you want to leave her alone," said Roxy to Lily.
"What did she mean by that?" Lily asked. "Maddie and Black used to go out last year, but she found him with some other girl. It killed her for months, and then she realized that he wasn't worth it and moved on," said Alexa glaring at Sirius. Lily looked over at Sirius, why hadn't she noticed that Sirius looked like a player. "The point is that you should never go out with the Marauders because they're a bunch of heartbreakers except for Remus," said Roxy as she looked at Remus.
There was one thing Lily didn't understand why Adam Diggory had bothered James so much. It didn't make sense at all, but she was going to find out. "It's time to head off to charms, class starts in twenty minutes," said Alexa grabbing her bag. "Yea, and we still have to see if Maddie is okay," reminded Roxy also grabbing her bag. Lily was gathering her things and saw that she had forgotten her charms book in the dorm. "I forgot my book, I'll catch up with you in a few minutes," she said as she hurried to Gryffindor Tower.
James saw that Lily was headed back to the tower and went after her. "Lily!" he yelled as Lily turned around to look at him. "What do you want?" she asked him as he caught up to her. "I just want to know why you said yes to Diggory," he said as he walked next to her. She didn't answer him and that bothered James for some reason. "Do you fancy him?" he blurted out. Lily stopped and looked at him. "And if I did what is it to you James?" she questioned. James looked at her and noticed how beautiful she had gotten since they were kids, but even back then she was really pretty.
"Its bothers me to no end," he said as he looked into her emerald eyes. He leaded forward and did something that never would've imagined doing. He kissed her because there was no doubt that he had fallen in love with her at the moment he saw her.
Hahaha... I'll bet you all wonder what happens. Well to all the ppl Happy Thanksgiving, I hope you enjoyed the day with family and friends.
