Chocolate?
Lily P.O.V.
Lily awoke to the smell of bacon, and the sound of...snoring? Ugh! Lyra! Some things never change...
Lily looked around to see she was in her room, but not at Hogwarts.When did I get back? The last thing I remember, was...MERLIN! THE TRAIN STATION! WHAT HAPPENED?
While Lily was silently, and quietly...musing (cough-hyperventilating-cough), Lyra had woken up, and was watching her with an amused expression. Lily looked up, and finally noticed her friend. After jumping about a foot in the air, she glared at Lyra.
"What are you staring at?" She snapped. Lyra immediately looked as if she was about to cry. Oh. No. Crap. Abort! New mission! Make Lyra feel better! Ya! Feel better!
Lily sighed, "I'm sorry Li! I'm just a little freaked out. How'd I get here?" Lily asked, looking confused and distressed.
Lyra's gaze immediately softened, "You don't remember?" Lily shook her head.
"The last thing I remember, I was hexing Parkingson, then the fight ended, then..." Lily stopped, she certainly wasn't going to admit that she had broken down crying, on James Potter, no less.
"Well," Lyra started, obviously not noticeing Lily's slip up. "I don't exactly know what happened then, but about ten minutes later, James came through the platform, carrying you, looking all worried. He said you were just talking, then you just kind of crumpled and fainted." Lyra finished. Great...
"Then, your mom freaked out, but your dad managed to convince her we didn't need to rush you to the emrerantcy room," Lyra finished.
"It's emergency room," Lily corrected her.I forget she's pureblood, sometimes.
"Thanks, Li," Lily replied, when Lyra looked a her questioningly.
"I suppose, I better go tell the 'rents your alive," Lyra said, standing up, and walking out of Lily's room.
Great...Obsessive, worried mother...This should be fun...Wait! Bigger problems! What am I supposed to say to James? He saved me! Kind of...
Stop obsessing!
I am not obsessing!
Are too!
Am not!
Are too!
Not!
Too!
Not!
Too!
Too!
Ha! Told you!
Shut up! You tricked me! Ugh! Great! Now I'm arguing with a voice...in my head...This never leaves this room...
Lily looked up in time to see a blur running at her. The blur then tackled her, squeezing for all she was worth. What? Wait...Mom...
Lily reluctantly squeezed her mother back, and patted her shoulder awkwardly. Lily wasn't one for all the touchy-feely stuff, but sadly her mother was.
"Are you ok? What happened? I thought you were dead! Don't ever scare me like that again.." Lily's mom was rambling. It's even worse than I thought! How do I get out of this!?
Lily glanced over her moms shoulder, and luckily saw smoke. "Um, Mom?"
"Yes, dear?" She asked in a teary voice. Oh, for the love of...
"I think somethings burning," Lily's mother turned around, and saw the smoke that was making it's way out of the kitchen door.
"My pies!" She shrieked. lily heard a giggle behind her, and turned around to see a grinning Lyra holding Lily's wand in her hand.OMG! Lyra has my wand! This is bad! Though, that was a good idea...
"You did that, didn't you?" Lily asked her giggling friend. Lyra nodded. "Grateful as I am, Li, you do realise your not allowed to do magic yet, right?" Why am I trying to tell her this? It wont even make an indent into that thing she calls a brain...
"It's with your wand, I'm in the house with you, and your allowed to do magic. The ministry is not going to be able to tell it was me. They'll just think it was you!" Lyra to her in a smug voice, she had obviously thought this out.
Lily looked at her in shock for a moment, before breaking down in laughter.
"What?" Lyra asked crossly.
"It's just, and your, and then, you were being SERIOUS!" Lily stuttered.
"That would be Sirius," Lyra told her dryly. That joke never gets old...
"Sorry, Li! It's just, you sounded so serious. It's just so unlike you," Lily consoled her. No joke! That's about the second serious thing I've heard you say in the seven years we've been friends!
"I can be serious!" Lyra exclaimed, glaring at Lily. Lily just looked at her. Lyra lasted about ten seconds before exclaiming "Shut up!"
"I didn't say anything!" Lily said, laughing.
"Whatever!" Lyra grumbled, sulking.
Lily just rolled her eyes, and stood up. Lyra looked at her questioningly.
"I have to go to the loo, be right back," Lily explained, getting up, and quickly walking out of the room.
Stupid Lyra! She really needs to learn to glare better if were going to hang out with the boys! Especially James... Oh my god! James! What am I going to do? I can never talk to him again! He probably expects me to thank him, or something! Oh no...
Lily didn't notice her surroundings, until she ran into something. What the...
"Ouch!" Lily cried. Owww!
"Watch where your going freak!" She heard.
Oh crap! When I look up, Lyra is going to be standing in front of me! NOT who I think it is...
Lily slowly looked up, and Petunia was standing in front of her. Gah! why did it have to be her?! Why am I cursed?
"Sorry," Lily mumbled.Great! Shut up, and run! Run, girl! Run!
"You better be!" Petunia sneered in a hateful voice. Typical...
"What are you doing here?" Lily asked shocked. She always avoids me, and now she knowingly is in the same house with me! What is with her?
"In case you forgot, I live here!" Petunia snapped evilly. Deatheater...
"I know that! You just normally don't come home for break!" Lily replied, trying to stay calm. Not like we want you to come back, anyway!
"Well that's because I don't want to see you, and your freaky friends!" Petunia leered.
By this time, Lily was REALLY trying to keep her temper under control. This was harder than normal, because she was still freaking out over the James thing, and still a little shaken up from the previous day. Not that she would ever admit it.
"Well than, you should have stayed at school this break too, because a group of my friends are coming over tomorrow," Lily replied, trying to push her buttons.
"What?!" Petunia asked furiously. "You are not letting a group of your people in this house tomorrow! Vernon is coming over!" She shrieked.
"Too bad!" Lily said smugly, than started to walk off. Petunia grabbed her, and pinned her to the wall.
"Listen you little witch!" Petunia spat at her. "I have never brought a boy home, and Vernon does not know about you and your abnormality! I will not have you, and those bitches your always with, mess this up! You and your little friends, from that horrible school, better stay far, far away from this house! Do you understand me, freak?" She spat right in Lily's face.
Lily lost it! Before she knew what she was doing, Lily had Petunia pinned up against the wall, with her wand pressed against Petunia's throat. Petunia just laughed, "You can't do magic! You'll get expelled," Petunia sneered, thinking she was safe.
"Wanna bet?" Lily countered.
"Ya I want to bet! Your not 18 yet, so you can't! I hope that Voldymorta guy comes, and kills you, and all your friends and you can't do a spell to stop him!" Petunia snapped back.
HOW DARE SHE?! Levicorpus!
Petunia was magically pulled up into the air, and left to dangle by her ankle. She, of course, promptly started screaming.
Oh Merlin! Did I just do that? Wow! I did! Yay! Go me! Oh god... She's screaming...
"Shut up!" Lily snapped. This just made Petunia scream louder. "Silencio," Lily screeched, while waving her wand.
Her sister continued to scream, even though no sound was coming out.
"Now YOU listen!" Lily started, "Don't you ever talk to me like that again!If you ever utter another insult about me, or my friends, I have about nine hundred more spells I can use to hex you! Not even counting the potions! How would you like green hair, or how bout a face covered in pimples? Don't you ever say things like that about Voldemort! His followers would kill you in a second! You have no idea what it's like in my world! People won't even say his name their so scared! Think of Hitler times about five thousand! He won't stop until every Muggle in the world is under his control! That includes you , Mum, Dad, and your darling Vernon. He is the source of all evil in this world, and people I know and love are dying every day because of him! You should be very scared! Only an idiot wouldn't be, and you, and our parents, are in even more danger because your related to me! So, unless you want to be murdered, I advise you to shut your big, fat, ugly face!" Lily yelled, then turned to walk off.
"Liberacorpus," Lily said, waving her wand behind her. As soon as she said this, Petunia fell to the ground. She was about five steps down the hall when...
Wow! She is being really quite! Oh crap! I forgot about the silencing spell...
Lily muttered the counter curse.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh," Petunia screeched, as soon as Lily lifted the spell.
Oh, why didn't I leave that one on her?!
"Lily Iris Evans! Get back here!" Petunia screamed after Lily.
Lily turned, and was about to curse her sister, when her Mum and Lyra ran into the hallway.
"What is going on here?" Lily's Mum asked.
"Lily cursed me," Petunia began to whine.
Merlin! She's like eighteen! Grow up, you little baby!
"Did you?" Lily's Mum asked her.
Gah! How am I going to get out of this? Oh, wait! I didn't curse her! I hexed her! Yes! Mwah hahahaha...
"No mum! I didn't! I threatened to, but I did not use a single curse on her!" Lily assured her mother, trying not to grin evilly.
She then grabbed Lyra, and walked back to her room, before Petunia could point out she was lying.When did I turn into such a Slytherin?
"So, did you curse her?" Lyra asked hopefully, as soon as Lily shut the door.
"Of course not! I wouldn't lie to my mum!" Lily told her sincerely. I would, on the other hand, trick her...
"Oh..." Lyra sighed, disappointed.
I should put her out of her misery...
"I hexed her!" Lily said evilly.
Both girls than burst out laughing.
"You are good," Lyra laughed appreciatively.
"I know!" Lily replied, sitting on her bed.
"So modest..." Lyra teased, but was interrupted by voices down the hall.
The girls heard mumbling, then Lily's bedroom door flew open, and a tall black girl (wearing a black shirt, with a white skull on it, and extremely short blue jean shorts, with neon orange fish nets under them), walked in.
"Mica!" Lyra screeched, and ran to give her best friend a hug.
What am I going to do with her?
"Gosh Ly! I saw you yesterday! Remember? The train, the fight, the poor, poor, Slytherin guy you tried to strangle..."Mica said laughing.
"Well, I missed you! It was weird waking up, and only Lils being here! I'm used to all of us being together! Plus, you know that guy so deserved it!" Lyra whined in her defense.
"What did you do to her? She's acting like a lost puppy!" Mica asked Lily.
"She hasn't had sugar yet," Lily answered calmly, like this was a everyday experience. Well, it is! It's Lyra, and sugar... -shudder-...
"Oh! That explains it!" Mica replied.
"Oh! Sugar where? I want sugar!" Lyra screamed, starting to bounce crazily on Lily's bed.
I better get her out of here, before she messes something up, and my mom kills me...
"Come on!" Lily said to Lyra.
"Oh! Do you have chocolate?" Mica asked.
"Oh, ya! Chocolate! Let's go eat chocolate!" Lyra added.
"Hyperactive bunny..." Lily mumbled under her breath.
"Yup!" Lyra answered loudly in Lily's ear.
"How did you even hear me?" Lily asked her.
"I'm just great that way!" Lyra said airily, grabbing Mica, and skipping out the door.
Why do I hang out with them?
Mica's P.O.V.
Lily ran to catch up with the two girls, walking slightly in front of them. Mica and Lyra then followed Lily down the stairs, and out of the house.
Where are we going? It had better have chocolate! She promised chocolate...
"Where are we going?" Lyra asked, bouncing up and down.
Gosh Ly! Get out of my head!
"We are going to my favorite donut shop!" Lily answered, leading them through the town square.
"Oh yum! I want chocolate donut holes!" Mica said happily.Chocolate! Chocy, chocy, chocy, CHOCOLATE!
"Oh! I want suger!" Lyra exclaimed. Not that it matters we're going to a donut shop! Gosh, Ly! Everything in a dognut shop is sugar! Your supposed to be smart...
Lily just rolled her eyes.
Wow! She does that alot...
Lyra linked arms once more with Mica. They then began skipping behind Lily.
"Sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar, sugar," Lyra chanted as they skipped.
"Chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate, chocolate," Mica chanted at the same time.
Lily is going to kill us! Hehehe...
Lily just continued walking, acting like she didn't notice the comotion they were causing. We're getting weird looks...YAY!
Lily was walking in front of them, and when she saw people she knew, she would wave, acting like she didn't notice the crazy people trailing her.
"I don't know you! I refuse to acknowledge you! You. Are. Crazy! Crazy people! Crazy people, I do not know!" Lily kept saying. Repeating herself, but occasionally coming up with a new way to call them weird.
"You two, do realise your crazy, right?" Lily asked them.
"'Course we are, Lils!" Mica happily replied.
"Duh, we know!" Lyra replied, a second too late.
They resumed their walking, till Lily stopped to talk to a kind looking old lady.
"Hell, Mrs. Jenkins!" Lily greeted brightly.
"Hello, Lily, dear!" Mrs. Jenkins happily replied. Though not before giving Lyra and Mica strange looks.
"Who are those people?" Mrs. Jenkins asked, in what she probably thought was a whisper, though was really quite loud. Wow! She must really be deaf!
"Oh! Yes! Crazy people, they are! Been following me for a while! Thinking about getting a restraining order against them..." Lily replied in a stage whisper.
"Hey!" Lyra screeched indignantly. "Wait! What's a respaining order?" Lyra asked, confused. Idiot pureblood!
Mrs. Jenkins looked at Lyra strangely. "Is she ok in the head?" Mrs. Jenkins asked Mica. This should be fun!
"Oh, yes! Perfectly fine! See, she's from a different country! It's quite small! In fact, very, very small! Poor, too! We're helping her, see? She's from school! Special charity case..." Mica replied, trying to look somber.
"Hey! I am not a cha..." Lyra started, but never finished. Mica quickly slapped a hand over her mouth, gave a smile to Mrs. Jenkins, and dragged Lyra off. Lily quickly said goodbye, and followed her struggling friends.
Mica held her hand firmly clamped over Lyra's mouth. Lyra bit her when they were a ways off, effectively moving the hand. She has sharp teeth!
"Third world!" Lyra screeched. Mica and Lily just laughed. Lyra huffed.
They continued to walk, and soon reached a donut shop with a sigh that said "closed" on the door.
Bbbbbut! I wanted chocolate! Wah!
"Oh damn!" Lily said when she read the sign.
Lyra didn't notice the sign, she was too busy staring at a telephone both.
"Oh look! A fellytone!" She yelled, pointing to it.
Stupid, stupid, stupid pureblood!
"For the last time! It's called a telephone!" Mica screamed at her.
Gah! Why can't she remember that word?
"Oh look! There's a cafe that serves breakfast," Lily said, pointing to a small building with a red roof and blue door.
Oh! I love the paint job! Nice, bright colors!
"Oh! Let's go there!" Lyra said, beaming.
"Ya!" Mica agreed happily.
Once inside, Lyra veered straight for the three, hot guys sitting at the bar.
They are muggles, but I'm game! Oh! The middle one is smokin!
"Hey! Can we sit with you?" Mica asked the nearest one.
The boy turned around, looked all three girls over, and nodded his head.
Wow! A little shallow! I wonder if I can do a spell, and make them pay for our food...
"Hi!" Mica said brightly, as she sat down next to a guy with long, black hair, blue eyes, and a skateboard proped up next to his chair.
Oh! He is sooo my type! Sadly, Sirius is still hotter... -sigh-...
"Ello!" The guy said, smiling up at her from his seated position.
"So, what's your name?" She asked him.
"Tyler," he answered, "What about you?"
Wow! He looked more like a Joe, or an Alec to me...
"Mica," Mica replied.
They quickly struck up a conversation.
"So, what is a respaining order?" Lyra asked after a couple minutes of happy chatter had occurred. Where Lyra had happily chat up a blond haired, blue eyes, muscular boy, and Lily had enjoyed a quite nice conversation with a brown haired, brown eyed, shy looking boy she seemed to know from somewhere.
Retarded pureblood!
"It's a muggle thing," Mica answered dismissively, without thinking.
"Oh!" Lyra exclaimed, her eyes getting big. "I get it now!"
"What's a muggle?" Tyler asked, as soon as Mica had turned her attention back to him.
Oh shit!
"Oh, it's what people from her home country call brit's,"m Mica answered, thinking fast.
"What country is that?" He prodded, now interested.
"Umm...it's a third world country I can't pronounce the name of," She mumbled.
"I AM NOT FROM A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY!" Lyra screamed, overhearing, and about to pull her wand.
NO, LYRA! NO!
