Chapter 11

~*~*~*~

Lily knocked on the door of Professor Dumbledore's office.

"Come in." A female voice called. Lily entered the room and was shocked to see Mr. Potter, Dumbledore and James all standing there. Lily smiled at them all.

"I'm sorry, I'm late Mrs. Potter. I was caught up in something." Lily said, half-smiling and looking at James.

"Not a problem, Lily. And please call me Jane. You make me feel old calling me that." Jane smiled. She looked at the three other people. "Professor thank you very much for allowing us to use your office." Jane said.

"Not at all. I must say it is strange seeing a Potter in here and not having to tell them off." Dumbledore smiled. Lily looked at James and smiled. "It is nice to see all the Potters in the same room, although we are missing-" Dumbledore began but was interrupted by a knock at the door. Eve walked in and smiled. She was holding Lily's portfolio. "Just in time Eve. I was just saying how great it was to see all the Potters in the one room." Dumbledore said looking at Lily, his eyes twinkling. Lily smiled and looked at her feet.

"Lily, you forgot this." Eve said handing her the folder. "Mum I need to talk to you." Eve said. Jane nodded and led her daughter out the door. Mr. Potter and Dumbledore started to talk. Lily walked over to James who was leaning up against the wall.

"So did you talk to your dad?" Lily whispered. James shook his head.

"I haven't had a chance to yet." James said looking at the ground. "So did you and Jordan settle your little argument?" James asked still staring at the ground.

"I didn't have enough time to." Lily said. There was a pause between them. "I don't understand why I can't just..." Lily trailed off. James looked at her.

"You know why." James said, before another word could be said Jane walked back into the room alone. Lily looked at Jane. She was the picture of elegance. Her hair was brown with slightly grayish roots. She had the same liquid blue eyes as James; She was a bit smaller than James was but still taller than Lily.

"Sorry about that." Jane smiled. "Now if everybody could please leave Lily and I be, we really need to get things started." Jane said looking at Lily. Lily started to get butterflies in her stomach. James looked at her and give her a warm smile, he touched her arm which made her tingle. He then walked out of the room with Mr. Potter and Dumbledore. Jane sat down in Dumbledore's seat and indicated for Lily to sit in front of her.

"May I see your folder?" Jane asked. Lily nodded and handed her the folder, her hand shaking.

"Don't be nervous Lily." Jane smiled. "James has warned me to be nice as possible towards you." Jane said looking down at the folder and looking through the pages.

"Oh, no. Treat me as you would anyone else. I don't want any special treatment just because of what James and I are." Lily said alarmed. Jane looked at her and smiled.

"Lily from what I can see, you don't need James so you can get special treatment." Jane said looking back down at the folder.

"Are they really that bad?" Lily asked her eyebrows furrowed. Jane looked at her.

"On the contrary. These designs are fabulous. Where did you ever get such a talent?" Lily blushed.

"My mother is an artist. I guess I get it from her." Lily said.

"Well, Lily, if you continue creating such wonderful designs, I am very sure that you will have a job whenever you leave Hogwarts." Jane beamed. Lily's eyes widened. "What are you doing for Christmas?" Jane asked. Lily looked at her.

"Nothing. Probably staying at Hogwarts." Lily said shrugging.

"Good." Jane said. "I want to make an appointment for you to meet with the creator of Merlin Productions. I'm sure once Merlin sees your design he will want you to be part of his team." Jane smiled. Lily's eyes widened again.

"T-thank you. I don't know how to thank you anymore." Lily said. Jane chuckled.

"Lily, I know talent when I see it, and I certainly see talent." Jane smiled. "And like I've told you before, you make my James happy, that's the greatest thank you I could ever ask for." Lily smiled and looked at the ground. Jane sat back in the chair.

"Yeah well, James makes me happy, and that's more than I could ever ask." Lily said.

"I know both of you will be happy together. You will have some obstacles but everything will work out in the end." Jane said. Lily looked at her and smiled. "Lily, tell me how is my son doing?" Jane asked her. "I mean I haven't really been able to speak to him since before he left for school." Lily felt awkward. She didn't really know how James was feeling. He mainly kept to himself or he spoke to Sirius about how he felt, he never really talked to Lily about how he felt.

"He's doing okay, from what I can gather. It's just he keeps to himself a lot, and I don't know how to break the barrier that he builds around himself." Lily said looking at the table.

"That has always been James. He doesn't like showing his emotions; he's like his father. It took me a long time until I got him to talk to me; it's just the trait of the Potter men. In time James will open up to you, you just have to give him time." Jane said. Lily smiled. "I must say though he has changed, usually after he and his father fought it would take them a few days for both of them to apologize. Another characteristic passed down through Potter men is stubbornness." Jane said rolling her eyes. Lily chuckled. "However this evening James came straight to Michael and apologized. I'm sure both of them would still be avoiding one another if it weren't for you." Jane said.

"I didn't do anything." Lily said.

"You talked to James. He doesn't really talk to people about stuff going on in his life, except of course Sirius but he doesn't count." Jane smiled as Lily chuckled. "Thank you." Jane said. They continued their conversation a little further then both stood up and Lily left for dinner. After dinner Lily was sitting cuddled up in a chair in the corner with the blanket wrapped round her. She was staring at the book she was reading. Lily wasn't even reading it she was lost thought, thinking about everything. Michelle was sitting on the couch beside the fire watching her. A few moments later James and Sirius walked into the room, they were both laughing then James suddenly stopped when he seen Lily. James excused himself from Sirius then went over to Lily. Sirius walked over to Michelle and sat down beside her.

"What we looking at?" Sirius asked Michelle who was watching Lily and James. Sirius followed her gaze.

"Don't you think they've been acting weird lately?" Michelle whispered. Sirius shrugged.

"They're always weird." Sirius said.

"I know that but recently they have become extra weird, you know like towards each other." Michelle said looking at him. Sirius paused for a moment and thought about this.

"Yeah, once you mention it. They do act weird towards each other." Sirius said.

"They don't fight as much as they usually do, they have actual conversations and when they look at each other, well they look at each other strangely." Michelle said, her eyes locked with Sirius'. She quickly pulled away when shouting caught her attention. She looked up to see Lily and James fighting.

"I just don't understand sometimes why it has to be this way?" Lily shouted.

"It just has to be Lily. Why do you have to complicate this any further?" James said throwing his hands up in the air.

"So I'm complicating it now. I'm complicating things. You know that I would've-" Lily began.

"Yeah, Lily I do know. But it can't happen like that." James said.

"Then how will it happen?" Lily asked her hands on her hips.

"I don't know." James said.

"Then if you don't know and I don't know then there is no point discussing it any further, is there?" Lily said.

"Maybe your right, maybe we should just stop it!" James yelled.

"So you want to end it all now?" Lily screamed.

"Yeah maybe I do!" James said.

"Fine!" Lily shouted.

"Fine!" James repeated and with that Lily stormed out of the common room. James stood there with a hand rubbing his head. He looked at everybody who was watching. "What?!" He shouted. Everybody instantly went back to there conversations. James walked over to where Sirius and Michelle sat, and sat opposite them. He leaned his head back on his chair and rubbed his face.

"What was that all about?" Sirius asked.

"You don't wanna know." James growled. Sirius and Michelle shared that said They ain't telling us something!.

Meanwhile Lily ran down the corridor with tears streaming down her face, she didn't have a clue where she was running, she was just running. Without realizing it she bumped into someone and fell on the ground. A hand was dangling in front of her. Lily took it gratefully and sighed as she seen who owned the hand.

"What are you doing here?" Lily asked Jordan. Jordan shrugged.

"What's wrong?" Jordan asked wrapping an arm around her shoulder. Lily shrugged.

"Potter. He just does my head in." Lily said wiping her face. She thought she saw a smile on Jordan's face but when she looked again, he was looking at her with sadness. He led her into the nearest classroom and sat her down on a table.

"Why don't you tell me what happened." Jordan suggested.

"I'd rather not." Lily sighed. "Look Jordan I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I've just got so much going on right now." Lily said looking up at him.

"Don't worry about it." Jordan said wrapping his arms around her.

"I hope you don't mind but I don't want to go as a Greek servant. I've already got my costume and everything planned." Lily said into his shoulder. Jordan pulled away.

"What is it?" He asked curiously.

"Not telling ya." Lily teased. Jordan leaned closer to her.

"Please?" He pouted.

"No." Lily said before Jordan kissed her. Lily felt nothing when he kissed her, she felt as if she were betraying James. But why should she, he was a jerk and he had just broken it off with her, she thought. That evening when Lily went back to the common room it was empty so she grabbed the book that she had left there and went up to her dorm. Everybody was sleeping so Lily went straight to bed and tried to sleep. In the boys dormitory all the boys were still up. Sirius, Remus and Peter were working on the a few pranks they could play as Kent was in his bed with Sophie, the curtains closed and sound proofing spell surrounding the bed so that no-one could hear in or out (Guess what they were up to!). James however was on the other side of the room punching a punch bag. He always did this when he needed to think about things, like Sirius always said "when in doubt, get the punch bag out." James was punching the bag as if it was nobody's business. He needed to get his anger out about Lily and about his father. He didn't really mean what he said to Lily and he hoped she knew that. He knew that Lily wanted to break up with Jordan but he couldn't let her, not yet anyway. His father however, James was still pissed at. His father was so stubborn, his mother always said James was just like him, but James doubted it. He wasn't stubborn, but his mother always rolled her eyes at him and said "like father, like son." James hated when she said that. His father could be cool at times but when it came to James' future he always wanted James to go into the ministry and follow in his footsteps. But James didn't want that; he wanted to play professional Quidditch. He knew his father would be disappointed in him but James had to make his own way in life.

Sirius watched as James punched the bag furiously. After a while James through his hands up and sighed.

"I gotta get outta here." James said throwing his boxing gloves off and walking over to his trunk.

"Where you going?" Remus asked curiously.

"I need to talk to someone." James said pulling on a top and grabbing his invisibility cloak.

"He's going to see his mystery woman." Peter squeaked. James rolled his eyes.

"Your gonna miss a good prank, Prongs." Sirius said jabbing his thumb towards Kent's bed. James didn't say anything; he just threw on his cloak and left the dorm. He ran down to the common room then went up the stairs to the girls' dorm. He opened the door to Lily's dorm and slipped in. He knew Lily's was the one at the end beside the window. He walked over to it slowly so that the floor wouldn't creek. He could hear muffled crying come from Lily's bed. He pulled the curtain back and could see Lily lying there with her eyes closed yet tears fell. This broke James's heart seeing Lily cry because of him. James kneeled down beside her; he quickly cast a sound proofing spell around them.

"Why did you have to do this to me? Why did I have to fall in love with you?" Lily said. She thought she was saying it into thin air but jumped when she got a reply.

"I'm sorry." James said to her. Lily opened her eyes only to see nobody there, but she knew James was even if she couldn't see him. James then realized that she couldn't see him and pulled the cloak off.

"I'm sorry I yelled at you." James said pushing away a strand of hair from her face.

"I'm sorry I pushed you into yelling at me." Lily said. James leaned down and kissed her lips. When James pulled away he had a small smile on his face.

"That felt good." Lily whispered.

"You liked that huh?" James said before kissing her passionately. He lay down on the bed beside her and pulled her close to him. His hands roamed up and down her back underneath the top she was wearing. James started to kiss her neck. Lily started to breathe heavily then she pushed James away. James bit his lip the jumped up as if he had been bit.

"Think about something else. Quidditch...2 + 2 = 4...." He looked at Lily then quickly looked away again. "Quidditch...Dumbledore...Professor McGonagall...Ewwww!" James said, he just got a very disgusting image in his head.

"Shh!" Lily said trying not to laugh at James' face. James sat down on the bed and shook his head furiously trying to get the image away. Suddenly the door burst open and Sophie and Kent walked in. Luckily for Lily and James the side of the bed facing the wall was where the curtain was open.

"Lousy, Good for nothing, idiotic jerks." Sophie said as she led Kent over to her bed.

"Shut up!" Claudia shouted from her bed. That last thing heard from Sophie was her muttering the soundproofing spell.

"I better go see what those 'Lousy, good for nothing, idiotic jerks' did now." James shrugged. He bent down and kissed Lily's forehead, turned away, then turned back again.

"You fell in love with me because of my charm and handsome good looks." James winked before putting the cloak back on. Lily tried to stifle a laugh as he left. Lily closed the curtains round her bed and drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
