Fights?
Lily walked down the hall until she came across the cabin at the end. She stood staring at the door for a moment, then took a deep breath, pushing the door open.
Here goes nothing...
Lily knocked softly, but when nobody answered, she slowly opened the door to the deafening silence.
What she was greeted with thoroughly surprised her. Instead of the rambunctious marauders she had been expecting, she had walked in on two fellow seventh years...snogging. Great! Not only is this the wrong cabin, but now I'm going to lose my lunch too!
"What the bloody hell are you doing?!" Lily yelled upon being greeted by this, admittedly disturbing, sight. That is just disturbing! I'm seriously going to need therapy!
Marcus Goyle and Paisley Parkinson looked up in surprise. Marcus looked thoroughly bewildered at being interrupted, and Paisley looked absolutely furious.
"Sod off, Head Girl," leered Paisley, looking thoroughly pissed off. She did not!
"No! This is not acceptable! Ten points from Slytherin! You are seventh years! I can't believe you don't know better!" Lily half-yelled. That should show them!
"Can you not tell were busy?" Marcus asked, standing up, and getting in her face. I actually wish James were here, he would kill him! Wow, I just wished for James...This has got to be the weirdest day of my life...
"Back off, idiot! I expect better from my fellow seventh years!" Lily chastened.
"Don't insult my boyfriend, you filthy Mudblood!" Paisley yelled. She is so in trouble!
"Don't call me a Mudblood, you idiotic Sluterin!" Lily countered. That bitch!
"Gryffindork!"
"Snake!"
"Controling bitch!"
"Slut!"
"Whore!"
"You did not just call me a whore!" Lily yelled, "I'm not the one snogging a random guy!"
"You!" started Paisley, seemingly to furious to speak.
"What is going on in here?" a voiced asked in a yell, from the doorway.
Lily and Paisley turned from their fighting match, to see James Potter standing in the door way.
"Shut up Potter!" They yelled together. God! How hard is it to have a private argument anymore? Stupid Potter! Always ruining everything!
"At least.." Lily started, turning back to Paisley. Wait! Potter? As in, James Potter? Oh, crap!
"James, hi..." Lily started nervously, turning back to face James. Unfortunately, she didn't see the curse aimed at her, though she did hear a bang when it hit the shield that had been quickly thrown up around her.
"Perfictus Totalus!" James threw at someone behind her! He looked absolutely furious.
"Don't. Touch. Lily." He said through gritted teeth. Wow. I think he might seriously hurt Marcus... Not that, that would be so bad... I am Head Girl though, I suppose I should stop him...
"James!" Lily started, but then she herd ridiclous chanting in the background. What is...Wait. Sirius Black...
Lily looked through the door, and the sight that greeted her certainly didn't help her mood. Sirius was prancing around in a circle chanting, 'Goyle and Parkinson sitting in a tree, S-N-O-G-G-I-N-G" I am going to seriously going to neuter him!
At this point the whole cabin had realised what he was doing, and Remus was standing next to him, slowly shaking his head. James looked at Lily, Lily looked at Paisley, Paisley looked at Marcus, and they all turned to Sirius. "Shut up Black!" Was heard throughout the cabin. Act your age, you idiot!
"Come on James," Lily said stiffly, grabbing his arm, and leading him out of the cabin.
"What was that about?" Peter asked once Lily and James were safely in the hall.
"Nothing," Lily replied.
"Sure, that's just why the whole train heard their head girl yelling at a fellow seventh year," Remus said dryly.
Shut up, Remus! Lily thought, as she glared at him.
Sirius was watching all this with a knowing look on his face, "Sure.." he started dryly, "Evans, not even Parkinson yells at the Head Girl over nothing."
"He is right," Peter supplied. I'm going to kill them.
"Come on, Lily, what were you fighting about?" James asked from behind her, causing her to jump slightly. He was so quiet, I forgot he was here...
"Nothing," she insisted.
"Lily..." James started.
"Fine!" She gave in, tired of arguing. Stupid Paisley, ruined my day!
"I walked in on them snogging, took ten points from Slytherin, and then Paisley called me a Mudblood," Lily said casually, hoping this wouldn't set James off. Last thing I need is him to get all 'knight in shining armory' on me. Last time that happened, well, I don't even want to think about it...
When Lily finally looked up from her thoughts, it was to Sirius and Peters bored expressions, Remus' concerned one, and James furious one. Great...
"She said what?" He asked in a deadly voice. Merlin! Now I have to soothe him! Joy!
"It's ok James, it's not like I haven't heard it before," Lily soothed, not thinking about what she had just said.
"What?" James asked in an even more furious voice. Crap! Wrong thing to tell him!
"Who?"; He asked with forced calm. Up until this point, the other Marauders had been watching them with cautious expressions. Now, however, they slowly started to walk away from the pair.
"Well, Jamsie, I think we'll see you later!" Sirius yelled after the three fleeing Marauders. When the hell did he start calling him Jamsie? Back to James...
"Come on James, it's fine, it was an accident, anyway," Lily finished.
James seemed slightly soothed by this, then something seemed to dawn on him, "Hey, Lily, why were you in there anyway?" He asked, looking slightly confused.
"Uh, um, I, They.." Lily stuttered. Merlin, I never stutter! Just answer!
"I was looking for you," Lily answered quietly.
"Why?" James looked curious and eager at this.Great. Now I'm going to get that puppy dog face, arn't I?
"Um, uh...Nevermind! It doesn't matter anymore!" Real smooth Evans...
"Oh," James said very softly, "I guess I'll just go find the guys then...Bye, Lily," James said, before walking off quickly.
Real smooth, Evans. Real. Smooth.
"Come on Lily!" Was the first thing heard by the Head Girl as she stepped off the train. Lily turned around to see her hyperactive friend, running up to her.
"Let's go find your parents!" Lyra called excitedly. She really does never change...
As Lily walked over to her friend, Lyra seemed to realise something. "Where have you been?" She asked Lily.
Great...I get to tell it AGAIN! Lily went on to explain the events on the train. Lyra looked even more furious then James when Lily finished.
"He, she, when, WHAT?" Lyra stuttered. "I'm going to kill them!" Oh Merlin!
Lily watched her friend walk over to Goyle and Parkingson, and step right into Goyle's face. Bloodyhell! What does she think she can do? He's at least a foot taller than her, not to mention twice as wide!
Lily could hear her friend yelling halfway across the station. I suppose I better stop her, before she hurts him...
"You, filthy, maniacal, idiotic, annoying, egotistical, bloody PARASITE!" Lyra was yelling. Remus was watching all of this with what seemed to be appreciation.
Wow, maybe she'll get him after all. She almost never shows her smart side.
"You are a bloody, fucking, brute!" Lyra continued.
"What are you going to do, short stuff?" Goyle asked, looking down at her with disdain. Remus looked as if her was about to interfere, as did the rest of the present Marauders (Sirius and Peter), but Lyra didn't break stride.
"Do not talk to me in that demeaning way!" Lyra yelled, in his face once again.
Goyle looked confused for a second, "What does demean mean?" He asked, argument forgotten for a moment.
"I refuse to aquiest your question with a response!" Lyra yelled, then stalked off to join the three Marauders-who were watching her in awe-folding her arms across her chest, and keeping a furious-though quickly turning into pouting-expression on her face.
Meanwhile, James, who until this point hadn't been present, walked off the train, stalked over to Goyle, and promptly punched him in the face.
"What was that for?!" Goyle yelled, rubbing his jaw.
"For trying to hurt my girl!" James replied, inches from his face.
"Awww," Goyle taunted, "Did I scare little Jamsiepoo?" That is not good!
James looked too furious to speak, but Sirius wasn't, "Hey! I'm the only one who can call him Jamsiepoo!"
Goyle positively leered, "So, Jamsie has a little boyfriend to?" It was Sirius' turn to look furious.
"You asked for it Goyle!" Sirius yelled before tackling the larger boy to the ground and punching everything he could reach. Oh for the love of...
"James!" Lily yelled, "Do something."
James looked back at Lily, smirked, and the jumped into the fight alongside Sirius.
"Not that, you idiot!" Lily yelled after him. I'm going to murder him!
Mica P.O.V.
"Mica! Help me!" Was the sound that broke up Marissa's reunion with her parents. What now Li?
Mica turned around, intending to tell her friend to leave her alone, but was greeted with the sight of a brawl. Right in the middle, on some poor guys back was...Lyra!
Mica turned back to her parents, dropped her bag in her mothers arms, and ran to help her friend. "Don't worry!" She called over her shoulder to her parents, "This won't take long!"
Mica snuck up behind the boy, Stupafied him, and helped her friend off his back.
"Thanks, Mica!" Li said cheerfully, acting as if this sort of thing wasn't out of the ordinary.
Which I guess nothing is. This happens often enough.
Mica sighed, grabbed her friends arm, and dragged her to the next poor, unsuspecting, Slytherin.
They won't know what hit them!
Lily P.O.V.
At this point, they were attracting many stares from parents, and other students (mostly from Gryffindor and Slytherin) were joining in the fight. We are going to have a full on riot.
Lily and some other prefects had started pulling students apart, but for everyone they pulled apart, two more joined in the fight. BY this time, the whole platform was filled with cheering and fighting students, shocked parents, and harassed prefects.
That is it!
Lily thought after narrowly avoiding a hex. "Sonorus," Lily muttered at her throat, spelling herself, so that her voice would project.
"This is unacceptable!" Lily roared. Everything stopped, like someone had Stupifyed the whole hall. "You are students at a prestigious, highly recommended, well behaved," Lily's rant was cut of by a hex barly missing her left ear. Lily turned around to see Paisley Parkinson with her wand pointed at Lily. SHE DID NOT!
Something in Lily finally snapped, "That is it!" She yelled, before firing a hex at Parkinson.
This seemed to be some kind of signal for the students, and everyone started up with renewed vigor.
After what seemed like years, and was in reality only about 10 minutes, the fight was nearly over. Most of the students parents had apparated them out of there, and most of the muggles had stepped through the wall to the meet their parents.
Soon the only students left were the Sirens and the Marauders.
Mica broke the silence first. "Well, fun as this was, I think I better go find the 'rents." With that she walked off.
"Me too," Peter supplied, following her through the barrier.
"Me three, I have to get ready for...um...bye," Remus stuttered, walking away. Tonite's the full moon, Lily thought in the back of her mind as she stared numbly at the floor. Why didn't I stop the fight? I'm head girl! Bit, nooo! I encoraged ot! I can never look Dumbledore in the face again! I think I'm going to cry! Thoughout this silent talk Lily was giving herself, she was dimily aware of everyone leaving, until only James and Lily were left on Platform 9 and 3/4.
Lily was hardly aware of someone, James, she thought dimly, walking over to her, sitting down beside her, and shaking her shoulder gently.
Lily finally came out of her daze when she felt someone lightly touching her face. She looked up in suprise, and jumped slightly when her eyes met the alarmingly close gaze of James Potter.
"Are you ok Lily?" He asked quietly. Lily numbly nodded her head.
James looked at her forehead, and his expression turned furious, then concerned. What? Why are you looking at me like that? Lily wanted to ask, but the words wouldn't come, so she just looked at James with a questioning expression.
"Your hurt," he explained, lightly touching her face once again. "Let me fix that," James offered, looked down at her, and seeing no objection from her, muttered something under his breath, took a handkerchief out of his pocket, wiped her forehead, and showed the slightly red cloth to a beliwered Lily.
"Oh," She said finally understanding, "Thanks James." I can't believe i did that! I was... Lily spaced out again, not noticing James' concerned expression.
She did notice, however, when someone picked her up, and started carrying her off the platform. She finally snapped ot of it, just in time to stop James from carrying her through the wall. "Potter!" She screeched, "Put me down!"
James laughed. Such a nice sound, snap out of it!, "Potter," Lily said in a deadly voice. James stopped and set her on her feet, though he did keep an arm around her waist, as if she would fall if he didn't hold her up. Which I might. I think I might have gone into shock for a second...Lily addmited to herself.
"Come on Lily," James said, "are you ok? You scared me there for a second," James admitted with a sheepish expression.
Lily did not appreciate being reminded of her previous state. Merlin! i can't take all this pressure! Lily thought, not noticing the tears that were silently streaming down her face. James did though, and he pulled her into a bone crushing hug.
"Please don't cry Lily!" James pleaded, looking horrified.
"What?" Lily asked, reaching up to touch her cheek, noticing now it was wet. Great! Now I'm crying too! Could this day get any worse?
"Come on Lils, it's ok!" James reassured, rocking her back and forth. Lily finally broke down sobbing at this. Me, crying! On James Potters sholder, no less! This is not good! Oh well, might as well enjoy it while it lasts...
Lily burried her face in James chest, and cried herself out.
James really can be sweet... was Lily's last thought, before blackness overtook her.
