Lily Black
Chapter 8
As was expected, Ronald Weasley received a howler by lunchtime.
"RONALD WEASLEY! HOW DARE YOU WRITE SUCH OUTLANDISH THINGS IN YOUR POTIONS EXAM?!?!?! ESPECIALLY WHEN DARLING LILY IS ABOUT TO BECOME YOUR SISTER-IN-LAW" Everyone looked at Lily as she mouthed 'Charlie.' Mrs Weasley continued.
"I HAVE HALF A MIND TO CALL YOU HOME RIGHT NOW! AS FOR TRAINING, WHAT TRAINING WAS THIS?? I DID NOT GIVE PERMISSION FOR YOU TO BE TRAINED AT ALL AND NEITHER DID YOUR FATHER." Dumbledore paled considerably, but Mrs Weasley was not finished.
"AND STEALING MONEY FROM HARRY? I RAISED YOU BETTER THEN THAT RONALD!
AND GINERVA, DON'T THINK YOU ARE GETTING OFF LIGHTLY EITHER!! STOP BOTHERING HARRY; CAN'T YOU SEE HE IS TRYING TO LET YOU DOWN GENTLY?
And Lily dear, I am sending some fabrics for you to decide the colour and texture of your wedding dress as well as a guest list of mine and Arthur's relatives along. Of course you and Harry are more then welcome for Christmas. And Harry honey, well done for being accepted into the Angel House."
The Howler shrivelled up as Lily looked at the stack of parchment beside her, which happened to be the same height.
"The Weasley's may not have much money, but they know how to throw a party,"
"Damn."
"Hey Big Sis," Harry sat on her desk as Dray stood looking amused.
"Wassup Harry?"
"Not much." Lily nodded and went back to her lesson plans. Harry shuffled around a bit. Lily put her pen down.
"Ok, Harry, get it off your chest." Lily gave Harry a pointed look.
"What were you doing before you came here?" Harry blurted out. Lily raised one eyebrow (like so many wish they could).
"Ok, I'll give. Basically I went to an orphanage, had a tantrum, was nearly adopted by ol' Lucy Malfoy, fell through the veil, and became the guardian and all under the pretence that I was a Silverwing. Nothing else to tell really. Now, why?" Harry shrugged.
"You know so much about me…" Lily nodded slowly.
"Fair Cop." Dray also raised an eyebrow. Lily shrugged.
"Out of plain curiosity Lily, do you know who my parents are?" Lily looked at Dray and gave an honest answer.
"No. But you do seem vaguely similar to someone I know, I just can't remember who… But when the adoption spell either becomes reversed or wears off, I will be able to tell you via potion or recognition." Dray nodded and Harry tried to raise one eyebrow – but failed miserably.
Severus Snape walked into the potions lab at around nine o'clock and found Lily sleeping, her head on the desk. He allowed a small smile to grace his lips, but would deny it vehemently if someone said so. He gently shook her awake and her eyes slowly opened. She smiled sleepily at Severus. He talked to her gently.
"You mentioned that you had a date with Charlie at nine…" Lily was up in a heartbeat. She was gone before Severus had time to blink. To his dismay he couldn't remember what he came down here for.
"Lily, can we talk?" Lily chuckled.
"That sounds like you're going to break up with me, Charlie!" She stopped laughing at his grim look. Lily paled.
"No! No! No!" She put her hands over her ears. "Lalalalala! I'm not listening!" Charlie sighed and gently lifted her hands away. He never imagined this would be so difficult…
"Lily… I don't know how to say this… but I can't marry you… you see, I…I'm in love…with someone else"
Lily's world came crashing down.
Hmmmm, my muse went mad. Ah well. So, should Charlie ad Lily get back together? Or would you prefer another couple? Heres the choices:
Charlie (I've gone off him a little)
Severus (maybe)
Remus (maybe - buyt iffie)
Bill (very possibly)
Dray (teacher-pupil, i can think of a good plot right there, but a little ewwww)
Gabriel (but...angels don't do relationships...)
Other (please state)
shrugs Please don'tr kill me.
If I don't get any replies btw, then Lily will remain unattached
