I Hate Everything about You
Chapter seven: Broken
"So…Evans, you and Andy Jamison, I didn't think big and bulky was your type," James looked at her with deep hazel eyes from his spot across the common room.
"Well I never thought a blonde ditz in Ravenclaw like Anna would be your type…but I don't judge," Lily responded quickly and with a smirk.
"Shut it Evans, Andy isn't the smartest crayon in the box either, and how can you be a ditz if you're in Ravenclaw?" James set his floppy paper back book down beside him, his eyes flicking to the fire and back to Lily's smug face.
"Oh, Andy and I aren't together, and believe me Anna can be a ditz anywhere," She flipped her long waves of auburn hair over her shoulder, smiling.
"Then what was all that...you know…in the hallway with you and Jamison?" James asked dropping the topic of Anna.
"It's called snogging, its when a boy and a girl…or the same sex, if you into that…kiss passionately, God James where have you been?" Lily replied cheekily.
James made a disgusted face, wrinkling his nose, "Ugh, Evans I know what it is…but why would you do that with someone who your not dating?"
"its fun," Lily cocked her head at him, she never met a boy who wouldn't just kiss a pretty girl if he had the chance.
"Bloody Hell Evans the rumors are true," He shook his head, his messy ebony hair flopping around slightly.
Her emerald colored eyes narrowed, "What rumors?"
"The ones about you sleeping with every decent looking bloke above 6th year," he inwardly cursed his big mouth, as he watched her red-headed temper flare.
"James Potter! I am not some bird that every bloke can get some arse from; I can't believe you of all people would believe something like that!" She stood, her eyes flashing.
James watched as her green eyes misted over slightly before she turned and disappeared into her room, the door slamming loudly.
Lily slid down her door letting her head fall into her knees, cursing the tears that fell from her eyes.
Lily Evans doesn't cry, and yet, here she was. Shedding hot tears over something that one boy said and it was something she knew before he even said it.
And suddenly Remus' words were echoing in her head.
"Heart Broken."
Lily strutted into the great hall the next morning, a grin set firmly on her bow shaped lips. She ran her hand through her long wavy hair before sitting down beside Sirius at the Gryffindor table.
"Lily-kins! I heard you hooked up with Andy Jamison from Hufflepuff, its all those badgers can talk about over there," Sirius slung his arm around her shoulders gesturing over his shoulder at the Hufflepuff table. Everyone over there was whispering and guys were patting Andy on the back with appreciative grunts.
"Yes, he was ok, nice enough…but you know me, never to settle down," she grinned, winking at some random guys at the Ravenclaw table.
"That's my girl!" Sirius pumped his fist in the air, "You and me, bachelor and bachelorette forever!"
"You bet," Lily said, ignoring the urge to look a few seats down the table to where she knew James sat.
"I have a feeling, that someday, you'll find someone who you really love and he'll break your heart…and you'll finally know what it feels like," Remus said seriously, looking at Lily with somber aqua eyes.
"Bloody hell Remus, you're such a kill joy…my Lily here is a professional," Sirius flicked a pea at Remus from across the table.
Remus glared with a smirk, before scooping up a spoonful of rice pudding and flinging it at Sirius, but he must have aimed wrong because it landed right on the front of Lily's shirt.
"Oh, it's on Lupin!" Lily stood up, ignoring Sirius's dog-like laughter from beside her as she grabbed some mashed potatoes from the bowl and flung them at Remus who pushed Peter in front of him.
And so the food fight began, Lily smashed rice pudding into Sirius's hair, who replied with a shriek, "MY HAIR! EVANS YOU ARE GOING DOWN!"
"Come on Black, bring it!" Lily jumped onto the table, food in her hands throwing it down at her friends, and some landed on other tables, quickly bringing them into the food fight.
Lily ran down the top of the long table, dodging flying food and trying not to step in the food actually on the tables. She reached the end and jumped up, the entire school seemed to freeze as they watched her flip in mid air, landing on the floor gracefully.
"MS. EVANS!" McGonagall was walking down the isle between the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw tables. Her face was pale white; her mouth looked like one line, her strict eyes flashing.
"25 points from Gryffindor, and you and Mr. Black will have detention with me tonight and for the rest of this week…now get out!" McGonagall's face reddened with each word and at the end, Lily grinned before bowing deeply and walking out, hips swaying in her signature swagger.
She grinned when she heard a whoop from Sirius, "That makes…1000 detentions! A new record," he was also quickly kicked out of the great hall.
He and Lily walked back up to the common room, laughing all the while.
