Chapter 2: Ben
I fell asleep almost instantly that night. I swear there is something in that food they serve at those feasts that puts you right to sleep. And then…
"Lily get up its freakin' 6:30!"
"What…huh…" I mumbled. I'm not a morning person if you haven't noticed yet.
"Lily get your lazy butt out of bed, its 6:30" My best girl friend, Amber, screamed whacking me over the head with a pillow.
"Amber stop yelling at me its 6:30!!" Somehow I actually yelled over her.
"Fine," she said still whacking me with the pillow.
"Amber, do you want be to get dressed or not because it's really hard to do that while your being hit over the head with a pillow!"
"'Kay!" That girl is super freaky awake in the mornings.

"Everyone!" McGonagall yelled, man does she have a loud voice… "Professor Weasley needs a day to learn rules, policies, and such because she was unable to do so over the summer, therefore there will be no Transfiguration today."
"Darn, now I can't make fun of Mum today about her teaching!"
"How do you know we'll even have Transfiguration today?" Anthony asked.
"My luck, duh" he replied.
"Good point," Anthony told him very matter of factly.
"What is wrong with you two?" I questioned.
"Absolutely nothing." Hugo said.
"Yea right!" Rose (Hugo's older sister) said.
"Here comes Hermione…" I said.
"I dare you to call her Professor Mum," Anthony whispered to Hugo.
"Okay." Hugo NEVER turned down a dare. "Hi Professor Mum," he shouted once Hermione got to us to hand out our schedules.
"Hi…what did you just call me?" Hermione questioned.
"Anthony dared him to call you Professor Mum," I told her, "Schedules?"
"Oh right, here…" She handed me the 3 schedules.
"Loser!" Anthony shouted sarcastically "You weren't supposed to tell her!"
"Sorrrrry, you two didn't inform ME of this!!!" I shouted jokingly.
"Well…BLAH" Hugo shouted back while Anthony stuck his tongue out at me.
"Yes! We have 1st period Transfiguration that means break first!" I said, finally having looked down at my schedule.
"Told you, well let's go to the common room then." Hugo replied.

Going to Herbology
"I dare you to touch the Venomous Tent…"
"Oh, come on, the Venomous Tentacula is sooo first year," Hugo interrupted.
"I was going to say touch it's mouth," Anthony replied.
"You two are SO immature!" I snapped. They'd been daring each other all morning "Ahh hide me!"
"What?" They said in unison.
"Ben, now hide me!"
"Who?" Hugo asked. "Oh, that dude you like?"
"Yes now HIDE ME!!!" I practically screamed.
"Hey Lily, can I talk to you?" Ben yelled.
'Bring' the first bell rang inside the castle.
"Shot…um I'll talk to you at lunch, I guess… 'cause if I don't I'll be late to class, so…um…I'll see you later."
"Um…yea…sure…ok…" I said for lack of something better to say.
"OH MY GOSH!!! Ben, the Ravenclaw fifth year was talking to you!" Amber screamed once he was inside the castle and out of hearing distance.
"I know who he is, I'm not an idiot, but so what if he's talking to me?"
"Hello he was nervous, really wants to talk to you if he is planning on talking to you at lunch, and yeah. Add it up girly, he's gonna ask you out!" Loran shouted (we have Herbology with Ravenclaws).
"You really think so! Shh, Neville's coming"
"So, this is more important than Herbology," Amber said as though it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"I know but if Neville hears my dad will hear, and if my dad hears I'll be banned from dating until I'm like 17"
"Fine, yea that's probably a good idea."

"Alright people, that wraps up today. I want a 10 inch paper on Devil Snare due Thursday" Neville said to the obvious disappointment of the class. "Come on you guys its only 10 inches."
"Hurry up Anthony, I want to get to Care of Magical Creatures early so we can say hi to Hagrid," I yelled pulling his arm like a 5 year old.
"See you guys at lunch," Hugo said.
"Have fun in Divination," Anthony teased.
"Let's GO!" I wined (still like a 5 year old).
"I'm coming, gosh," Anthony joked sticking his tongue out at me.
"Hey Hagrid," I called once he was within hearing distance from us.
"Lily, how are you? Hey Anthony," Hagrid called.
I'm great, do we still have Care of Magical Creatures with the Slytherins?" I asked.
"Yes. Now would ya stop goin' on about em?" He said sternly…well, sternly for Hagrid at least.

"Thank god Hagrid didn't give us any homework," Anthony said.
"Oh, come on, its 10 inches!" I said incredulously.
"Yea, but Nulman'll give us loads."
"Maybe, whatever come on lets get to lunch, I'm starved!"
"Really?"
"Yes really, I'm hungry I barely got anything to eat at breakfast because Hugo and Fred are pigs, Now lets go!"
"I think that you just want to talk to Ben."
"There's another reason to go, so let's go!"
"You really like him, don't you?"
"Yea, since like 2nd year...why?"
"No reason, just wondering…"
"Lily!" I heard Ben call from the marble staircase.
"Um…I'll see you in a sec." I told Anthony and walked over to Ben. "Hi!"
"Hi, um…I don't really know how to say this…so I guess I'll just say it, willyougooutwithme?" Ben rambled.
"Um, I didn't quite catch that, but if you just ask me to go out with you, then yes and if not then I'm asking you."
"Awesome! So, Hogsmeade next weekend?"
"Hogsmeade is the weekend after next…"
"Right…"
"But sure, as long as we don't go to Madam Puddifoot's though, I don't like that place."
"Cool!"
"Yea, um I should probably go."

That Night in the Common Room
"I still can't believe you're going out with Ben" Amber said.
"Nor can I…" I replied daydreaming, though I should've been finishing my potions essay.
"Oh my God can you Shut Up about Ben and tell me what the most important ingredient in The Draught of Living Death is!" Hugo yelled. "Hey Fred, save me they're talking about boys."
"You do mean save us, right?" Anthony said. "By the way, how's Ireland doing" (A/N Quidditch)
"Speaking of Quidditch when are try outs?" I asked.
"Saturday," Fred told me. "Lils, would you humor me with something?"
"Depends, what is it?" I responded
"Try out for keeper as well as seeker, I want to see if you really are the best at both positions."
"Sure, I guess, as long as I get to be seeker." I replied.
"Cocky much?" Anthony teased.
"Shut up, besides, I should've been on the team since 1st year had I been allowed a decent broom," I shot back. "Fred, do you even know what they're doing with Quidditch this year?"
"Nope, I think it's some kind of mini tournament, though"
"Cool!" Anthony, Hugo, and I said together, Amber walked away just about as soon as we started talking about Quidditch.
"I'm gunna go hang out with MY friends now, so bye" Fred called as he walked away.
"Lily will you please help us with these essays?" Hugo asked.
"Did you inherit ANYTHING from your mother?" I asked.
"The annoying stubbornness," Anthony replied.
"Hey, you need help too!"
"Just let me finish my essay," I told them. "No you're not copying!"
"How would we have ever gotten through school without her?" Hugo asked.
"We wouldn't have but she probably would've died of boredom," Anthony answered.
"Sitting right here!" I informed them.
"I know."
"Do you want me to help you with your homework?"
"Right, we'll shut up now." Anthony said.
"Done. Honestly, you two it's really not that hard."
"You're the best in the year, we're not," Anthony told me sarcastically.
"As if I didn't know that already."
"Shut up!"
"Why don't you guys try out for Quidditch?"
"Come on yea right," Hugo replied.
"You guys have a chance with keeper and chaser," I told them.
"Hugo, a chaser?!?"
"Well, he's not going to beat out me (Seeker), James, Lucy (Chasers), or Sean (Beater) so that leaves the position of keeper and a chaser position."
"Sure we'll go sign up now," Anthony said and they were off.
"Lils, can you do me a favor?" James called.
"Depends, what is it?" I asked. "Do I even want to know what you're planning?" I asked again pointing to the map (The Marauders Map) in his hands. (A/N Teddy got the map while he was at school and then gave it to James).
"I don't know. I just want to borrow the cloak." (A/N Invisibility Cloak)
"Fine, what are you doing?" I asked, interested.
"Personally I don't like Bell very much and she's up talking in Sel's office which just so happens to be on the balcony hallway over the 3rd floor, so I'm going to go under the cloak put a decoy detonator in the hallway and then we're (me and Andrew)…" (A/N Andrew is one of James' friends – I own).
"It's Andrew and I" I correct him, I love correcting James' grammar – he absolutely hates it.
"Moving on, we're going to pelt them with month long color paint balls (A/N a Weasley's Wizard's Wheezes product)," James continued.
"Alright, but only if I can help."
