Title: High School Drama!
Summary: Hogwarts is not the magical school, it is a preppy private school that Lily is accepted into as a scholarship student. She's not rich though she's looked down upon which doesn't bother her, because all she wants to do is make it through the four years of High School and dance the rest of her life away!
-Chapter Four-
Nothing happened that night, though since the warning the others had given her she decided to keep an eye out for mischief anyways. She could see why the others thought that they wouldn't let her go without retaliating, she had a sneaking suspicion that the years here were going to be a battle of wits, one in which she had no intention of backing down. She did her normal routine, the shower, the drying of the hair this time placed in a ponytail, and then headed to the breakfast room. She sat down with the other girls after giving them greetings. Nothing happened at breakfast either, except the fact that she was glared at, you would think that after a while they would be tired from all the glaring that they do but that didn't seem the case for them.
"So do you think they're ever going to get tired of all that glaring they've been doing?" she asked them as we finished up eating and worked on what we hadn't finished for class the day before.
"I don't think so; I think it helps them concentrate!" Kel said after a moment when they all peeked over there to find that though they were eating they would occasionally glance towards their table and glare then go back to eating.
"Yeah, when they glare at you they're usually thinking off all the things you can do it. Usually if they glare at you, you might want to watch out because you're the next target." Nat said this as a fact, as if she had witnessed it before.
"I see, so I'm probably the target for the next year or so by the look of it." Lily said, but despite this fact she couldn't help but smile a somewhat satisfied smile. It meant that she had ruined their perfect society in which they were the rulers and everyone else cowered behind lest something happened to them.
"Probably, maybe even longer unless you back down." Kris said this, though her voice implied that she knew Lily wouldn't back down.
"But just so you know, we think you shouldn't. Unless you want to or it gets to be too much. It's nice to see that everyone doesn't kiss up to them!" Nadia said this with an encouraging smile.
"Thanks, I think so too, and I'm sure I can handle it." We smiled at each other, and then I got up. "I need to go see professor Dumbledore, so I'll see you guys in class!" Then waving she gathered up my bag, and headed towards the headmaster's office.
She reached the headmaster's office, and knocked on it hoping that he was up and in, though she was pretty sure he was but she wasn't sure that he was in. A voice though called out for her to enter, telling her that he was there and she did as she was told. Professor Dumbledore smiled at her and with a nod of his head she sat down.
"And how are you today Ms. Evans?"
"I'm very well and you?"
"Very well to thank you, now what can I help you with this morning?"
"Actually I was wondering if you would let me change rooms. It might be apparent or not, but me and my roommates are not exactly suited to each other, and I would like to change to one of the scholarship students if it would be okay with you?" she smiled hoping it would make her look a little more innocent, and help her case!
"If that is what you wish it can be arranged. We can have one of our helpers move your stuff while you're in class."
"That would be wonderful!" it now meant that she wouldn't have to move all of her stuff, she had a suspicion that if she had tried she would have found Potter, Black, and Lupin there to make sure something went wrong, and she was not looking forward to more detention before she had even finished the one she was currently on!
"Very well at lunch you will have found all your things transferred to your new room!" He said with a smile.
"Thank-you Headmaster, I appreciate it!"
"No problem Ms. Evans, now I suggest you make your way to class, wouldn't want to be late on your third day here!"
Lily smiled then got up and did as she was told. She wasn't late, in fact just as she was rounding the corner that led to her class she saw Nadia and Nat walking from the other direction, they smiled and waved, and Lily did the same. But just as they were about to meet up James, Sirius, and Remus, who she hadn't noticed walking behind them passed and shoved Lily hard with their shoulders. She went down, as she would like to think of it slightly more graceful then it could have happened, but her things went everywhere. She had all the breath knocked out of her as she landed and looked over at the boys! They had walked a little bit ahead and turned around to stare at her a smirk on their faces.
"I'm sorry, didn't see you there."
Lily smiled the most charming of smile and it a pleasant voice replied. "That's okay don't worry about it. It was purely an accident."
This wasn't what the boys had been expecting and the smirk faltered as they shot quick glances at each other, thinking the same thing, what was she up to? She began to pick some of her things up then turned around again when they still hadn't moved on.
"You might want to go I would hate for you to be late to class!" She said in that same pleasant voice, and with one more glance from each other they moved on. The minute they were out of site she rolled her eyes. Nadia and Nat had come up by this point and they were helping her pick up some of the things she had.
"So what was that all about?" Nadia asked as she handed what she had picked up so far to Lily.
"You must have known that they did that on purpose!" Nat said as they stood up and headed into the class just before being considered late.
"Oh yeah, it was hard not to notice that." She said laughing slightly.
"So are you going to start kissing up to them?" Nadia said as if she couldn't quite believe this!
"No way, I just have something planned for later, and I'll tell you the rest at lunch break, in our rooms!" She said since she noticed that Professor McGonagall had just entered and she wasn't going to jeopardize anything getting in the way of her plan to get back at those pompous jerks.
"Our rooms?" Nat asked in a whisper as they all sat down and got out their things.
"I'm getting transferred to your rooms; Headmaster said that they should be there by lunch time!"
"I see, that's awesome, we're going to have a lot of fun!" Nadia said a twinkle in her eye and Lily couldn't help but match it with a twinkle in her eye also.
They would have continued the conversation but with one glare from the professor they decided better then that and instead turned their attention to the class. The rest of the day passed by without much incidence, they ate their lunch real quick and headed to the rooms, and sure enough there was all of her stuff, they helped her put some of the things up and made jokes about just how glad the girls in her room must be to get rid of her, and then they gathered on the bed and she began to tell them her plan. They looked surprised at first and then they began to laugh at the idea of what was going to happen.
"The only sad thing is that I don't have a camera!" She said after they had finished laughing at what they were sure was going to happen.
"Well I have a camera you can borrow!" Kris said as they gathered up the things they were going to need for their afternoon classes. "I have a Polaroid camera, where the picture comes out you don't even have to wait for it to develop or anything!"
"That would be perfect!" Lily smiled at the thought.
"Yeah well I like photography so I have a lot of different camera's but that one seems the best for what you're planning."
"Thanks I think I'll take you up on that offer!" They split ways and headed to their classes. The rest of the day passed uneventful, the three of the devils, as they were more commonly called in the scholarship group watched Lily, being still slightly confused by her reaction, but she acted as if she wasn't planning anything so they eventually began to think they won.
After dinner they slipped back to their room real quick and Lily picked up the camera and waved goodbye to the others and headed down to headmasters office to pick up the cleaning supplies. She gathered them up and the headmaster asked if she would need to be shown the way there and back. She declined the offer saying she was sure she could make her way back here when she was finished and then with a smile she took the mask he offered her and walked to the old section of the school and began a long hour and a half of work. As soon as she finished the last room she headed to the one she had finished yesterday and smiled as she looked at the room that was going to be her sanctuary, and then went to the closet. She dragged out some of the mats to let them air out, and anything else she thought she would need when she came her tomorrow night.
She spent the rest of the time of her detention in that room, doing a last few arrangements, and then ten minutes before her time was up she gathered her things, and walked out of the old section. She took a different route and came to a hallway that was pretty, clean, and deserted. She walked to one of the doors and smiling grabbed her cleaning supplies. She added some extra soap to the water making it even more slippery then what it normally was and then she carefully spread out the water around the door and then spread it out to where through the lamplight it looked like the floor had just been shined and no one would be suspicious. She looked at her watch gathered her cleaning supplies and ran around the corner taking out the camera that Kris had lent her. She also took out a mirror and angled it so she could see the hallway and smiled as she saw three devils come walking down there covered in flour among other things, and completely oblivious.
They reached the spot and she smothered her laugh as all of them went flying and landed with a small thud. She got the camera ready and turned the corner quickly yelling "SMILE!" They looked over at the voice and she snapped the picture quickly and smiling grabbed the Polaroid that came out grabbed the cleaning supplies and ran all the way down a few halls until she was closer to the headmaster's office. She set the things right outside and headed to her room, careful to make sure that they weren't around anywhere.
She walked in the room and quickly closed it and seeing that all the others were there she locked it also and smiled the showed the picture. Kel's mouth dropped open and she rolled off the bed and grabbed the picture from her.
"Oh my gosh, that is hilarious." She said laughing hard as she passed it around. Lily handed back the camera to Kris who took smiling.
"They look so shocked and stupid!" Nat said and they all laughed.
"I think you just started something Lily." Nadia said but her eyes were bright from the happiness they were all feeling about seeing them get what they did to everyone else. "I think they'll see this as war!"
"Oh well, I think it's time to shake this place up a little." She said and sat down on her bed since it had been designated to her. They talked until a few minutes before you had to be in your room, where the other two left to go down the hall. Lily and the others, Nadia and Kel were the ones she shared a room with, and then went to bed. The next morning when Lily woke up the others were also waking up about the same time and they smiled at each other and looked at the wall where they had hung the picture of the boys in all their stupidity. They took their showers then walked in the hallway to see that the others were just now coming out of their room and they met halfway down the hall and made their way to the great hall.
As usual they were one of the first people there and they went and sat at their table, making sure just in case that there wasn't anything wrong with it. They wouldn't put it past the boys to retaliate this quickly. Finding nothing wrong they continued on in the morning, but when the boys entered they all looked over and turned away quickly to hide their smiles, and to suppress the urge to begin laughing. Lily looked over again though to find that they were glowering over at her and from the look in their eyes she knew that it was war and all she could do was smirk then turn back around.
Despite the look she was given nothing happened for the next week or so, it was quiet, and since they didn't provoke her she wasn't going to do anything to them, but she would retaliate if necessary. Lily got situated nicely to life here, faster then she thought possible. She genuinely liked the other scholarship girls; they were funny and had spunk even if they didn't show it to others. Her room was much more comfortable then the one that she had shared with the other girls. She had once caught Kali badmouthing her and as she walked by she snorted and made a snoring sound and walked on by, though she did notice that her part of the conversation ceased.
All in all she liked this place a lot, hopefully it would last!
A/N- Hey guys here's the next chapter, I hope you like it. Before I get some reviews I wanna clear some things up. This is Lily's story so there might not be as much James Sirius and Remus as you want, but they will be in it, and not just doing pranks so their characters do begin to go deeper it might just take a while! Also James and Lily romance, it might take a while, but I seriously wouldn't expect some until she's a senior, meaning you've got at least three years worth of school before you see some, because let's face it at this point in time, they don't like each other ;p Anyways I want to say thanx to all of my reviewers I'm glad your liking the story so much
