Hope you enjoy this chapter!
The only reason why James hadn't put Silencio on Snape was that he wanted someone to see Snape defeated and humiliated. He wanted someone to investigate the noise and to see Snape weak and stupid and defenceless. But his plan backfired…
'How could you?' whispered Lily, sounded quiet but commanding at the same time.
'Just because your overlarge head is the most warped one that I have ever seen, doesn't mean that you can do those spiteful things!' she shouted, her voice getting louder.
"You're no better than Snape, strutting around like you own the place, that you are better than us, but you are NOT. You're just a stupid, dim-witted creature with an enormous ego and I don't want you near me. Get out of my way!' she screamed, barging past to go and help Snape.
James' face was thunderous, 'You don't like him anymore than we do,' grabbing her hand at the last moment.
'You know what he's done to all those First years and then you say that I'm warped for hurting him. What about you? Helping him, helping the slimeball who hangs around with Malfoy and their gang!'
Heads were emerging from some compartments, investigating the noise. James and Lily's shouting matches were always very entertaining.
Lily wrenched her arms free from his hold, 'Just because I don't like people, doesn't mean that I hex them or curse them, Potter! You're so immature that you don't understand that. You just walk around doing whatever you think. If I did what ever I wanted, you would be on Mars by now,' she shouted, walking back down the train.
James muttered, 'She's got a problem.' He walked balk down to his compartment, with Sirius following him behind. Sirius could tell that something was wrong. James had a horrible fake smile on his face and he was walking faster than usual. Sirius knew that he was going to explode once he got into the compartment.
James and Sirius entered while Wormtail banged the door shut.
'How'd it go?' enquired Remus.
'Terrible' said James.
Wormtail breathed out, gratefully. Maybe they wouldn't have to listen to James' huge monologue.
'It's Lily again, she's always bothering me. All I did was attack Snape. You know what he did to all those First Years, its just that the teachers don't have any proof of why the were drenched in blood last year. It's that Sectumsepra thing that he used on me in…when was it… fifth year. Lily then says that I'm immature, that I did something wrong. All that crap! What did I do wrong? I don't get it. She's the one…'
The rest of the marauders made themselves comfortable, this would go on for a long while.
In the girl's compartment, Lily had just walked in.
'Eew! Lily touched Snape, she's crawling with germs now,' said Alice Longbottom, Lily's friend at Hogwarts.
'Alice, you shouldn't be like that, he is just lazy and…' Lily grinned, 'I give up- he does stink!'
'What was it this time? Seriously, you can't be in a 30 metre radius of James without screaming!' sighed Marlene McKinnon, another good friend of Lily's. (remember Moody and the original pic of the Order of the Phoenix, he mentioned Marlene in the scene).
'If it was 30, I'd be screaming through all my lessons and in the Great Hall too,' giggled Lily.
'OK then, 2 metres. Happy now. So come on, tell,' replied Alice.
'Well, I was just walking down, I told you that I wanted to get some food off the trolley and there he was, standing there with the oaf Sirius. And I could hear Snape screaming, yeah. So it was obviously them who did it. I screamed a bit and then walked off, but then the great baboon said that I shouldn't help and then I screamed a bit more. He is so flipping annoying! So I just went to help Snape, but I did get a few Mudblood taunts, but at least James, the snob, didn't get his way. He is so annoying, strutting around like he owns the place, like he is the best, but he isn't. He is just….'
'Lily, I think we get the picture,' said Alice.
Lily didn't hear her….
