Chapter 6: Potter and Evans
It had been just about two months since Jake and I started going out, as well as the beginning of the term. I was the happiest that I had ever been.
Jake was the sweetest, kindest, most considerate boy that I have ever met. He treated me just right. I never felt like I had to worry about anything when I was around him. He was, well… he was perfect.
Whenever we were around each other, he never let go of my hand. One day, Jake was sick and couldn't even get out of bed.
This was kind of a problem for me, because the past two months, I have pretty much just been talking to Jake, and Jake alone. I don't even think that I've talked to Alex and Mary for three weeks.
Whoops?
When I arrived at the Great Hall for breakfast, I wasn't exactly sure where to sit. A few months ago, it wouldn't have even been a question. It would have immediately been Alex and Mary. Without a doubt. But three weeks without even one word spoken to each other when you're best friends? That's kind of a long time.
But yet again, Jake made it pretty clear that he believed that when someone is in a relationship, the other person should be your number one and your only one. He wanted me to only be with him.
So that's what I did.
But hey, Alex, Mary and I were still best friends, right?
I walked over to where they were sitting.
"Hey, guys!" I said. Mary looked up.
"Oh… hey Lily."
Alex, always being the more fiery one spat, "Where's your boyfriend?" Mary looked down at her plate. "Well, never mind," Alex went on. "We're going to the library. Mary is going to help me with my potions. Bye."
I winced, because I used to be the one to always help Alex with her potions troubles.
They got up and left. Just a few seconds later, to my great surprise, Potter slid in across from me.
"What do you want, Potter?" I asked.
"I want to talk to you, Evans," he replied back.
"Well alright, then. Go for it," I folded my arms across my chest and stared at him, waiting to hear what he said.
"I don't think that Jake is a good guy," James said.
"And since when have I cared what you think?" I spat back angrily.
"Just hear me out," Potter insisted. "Now, I'm not just doing this because I'm jealous or anything. I'm not saying I'm not jealous, but I am only telling you this because I am legitimately concerned for you. Don't you think it's kind of strange how he's pulling you away from all your friends? Doesn't that at least concern you at all? I'm just worried that you're putting too much on the line with this relationship. Your friendships, your grades, your happiness. If this doesn't end well, you're gonna be in a world of hurt,"
It took me a minute for me to figure out how in the heck to respond.
"Well, thanks for your concern, but I'm pretty sure I can take care of myself, thanks," and I got up and walked away.
I was convinced that I loved Jake.
And I thought he loved me, too.
Ohhhh. (: Also, I just wanted to clear something up. I do know that I've changed a few things in this fanfiction that might not be exactly how it is. And yes I'm aware of this. I'm aware that James is supposed to play Chaser, but I wanted him to be the Seeker. Which is exactly the point of a fanfiction. It's a fiction written by the fans. Which means they can write whatever the crap they want. (: thanks all(: please review because I love it.
