Hey so here's chapter 9. Disclaimer – J.K Rowling owns everything except my characters! I hope you enjoy. XOXOXOXO
*Remus's POV
Sirius is sat slumped in an armchair in the Gryffindor common room.
"What's up Padfoot?" James asks casually.
"I have never been more humiliated in my life." He says as he leans forward and puts his head in his hands.
"Why? What happened?"
"She rejected me." He states. Holy cow. Sirius has never been rejected, the lucky bastard. James probably isn't helping by rolling on the floor laughing.
"It's not funny. She was going to change my life; she was going to be the one to tame me." What on earth is he talking about?
"James you're not helping." Sirius snaps.
"Padfoot, what the hell are you talking about?" I ask.
"Her, she, Myer! I mean it's not like I love her or anything but I mean, she's alright, pretty, smart and she rejected me!" He sighs and then stands up.
"I'm going to bed." He states and then trudges up the dormitory stairs. I'm so confused. Sirius Black is hung up over a girl? No, he can't be. Moreover, what was all that about her changing his life? I give up trying to understand the mind of Sirius Black.
"What's wrong with him?" James asks. I shrug my shoulders. Then a first year runs in.
"James Potter?" He yells.
"Over here!" James yells back. The little kid runs over.
"Ms McGonagall wants you."
"James, you've been here not even twenty four hours and you're already in trouble. What the hell did you do?" I ask him.
"I actually don't know." And I believe him. He gets up and follows the first year.
"Later mate." He hollers back.
*James's POV
I follow the first year and he leads me to a portrait with a picture of an old fat man. Next to the fat man are McGonagall and my Lily flower. The first year quickly disappears.
"Potter, you took your time. Did you forget that you are in fact head boy?" I look down at my badge. Right this must be about head duties.
"Of course he forgot." Lily says rolling her eyes.
"This is the heads dorm. You two must agree on a password and then tell it to Charles here and then you may tell it to anyone you wish to but chose them wisely. Goodnight." And with that, she leaves.
"So what should our password be then?" I ask Lily, flashing her one of my award winning smiles.
! don't know. Just pick one so I can go to bed." She does look tired, leaning against the wall, bags under her eyes – probably from the nightmare.
"How about relashio?"
"Sounds good." We tell the fat what we want our password to be and step inside.
It's amazing, it's the same size as the Gryffindor common room and we have it all to ourselves. It's decorated in the Gryffindor colours; red and gold. In the far right there is a fire place in front of a plush red love seat. I can see it now, Lily and me snuggled up on the love seat in front of the fire. If only. Lily is already over the other side of the common room heading towards a door. I look around. One door. A mischievous grin spreads across m Lily is already over the other side of the common room heading towards a door. I look around. One door. A mischievous grin spreads across my face, maybe Sirius was wrong, and maybe we will get to share a room after all. Suddenly Lily emerges from the door.
"Wipe that smile of you face, there's two rooms back there you perv!" Great, now I'm a perv. And we were getting along so well.
"Night." She says with a small smile and before I can reply she's already through the door and I hear a door close. I'm no were near tired so I light the fire and sit and stare at it for a while, coming up with ideas on how to get Lily to like me. It's our last year and if I don't gt her this year then I might never get her and I can't imagine a life without Lily Evans. After a while I fall asleep and dream that I'm getting married to Lily. I awake to a scream.
*Lily's POV
I wake up screaming. That same nightmare again. I'm out of breath and sweating. Then there's a knock at the door.
"Lily are you alright?" He asks he voice muffled by the door. I walk over to the door and open it. Standing in the door way is James, his hair messier than normal and his robes severly crinkled like he slept in them.
"Uh yeah…" I say very conscious that I'm only in a tank top and pajama bottoms.
"Really? I heard you scream." He ask his voice is full of concern and so is his face. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I gave him a chance.
"Just that stupid nightmare again." I stare at my feet, willing the tears away. Why am I so upset by this? It's just a stupid nightmare. Not real. Not real. But the images are still flashing in my mind. Then before I can process what's happening James walks towards me and hugs me, I'm too tired and emotional to even think about what is happening so I snuggle my face into the side of his neck. Tears are falling down my cheeks before I can stop them. He pulls back and wipes the tears away with the back of his hand, then stares into my eyes. His eyes are gorgeous, blue and soft with concern. We stand there for what seems like ages, just staring at each other. None of us wants to move because this, here, it feels right. Him holding me, it's wrong on so many levels but for some reason it feels right. His watch beeps five am and we're forced to break apart so we can get some sleep. For the rest of the night I sleep peacefully.
So another chapter comes to an end. I thought it would be easy to write a fanfic but it is so not. I had to re-write this three times before I was happy with it and on top of that I had writers block for most the week. I hope you enjoyed it though. Remember to comment and vote! XOXOXOXO
