Cruel
Summer
‘I have to
what?’
Lily’s
question of disbelief echoed thoughout Dumbledore’s office and the headmaster
looked at her calmly over his half-moon spectacles.
‘Oh, no,’ she
started frantically, ‘no way! There is no way that I’m going to spend time
with…with him!’
The Gryffindor
girl pointed at the arrogant boy standing silent a few feet away from her. She
could practically feel the conceit seeping out of his skin and clogging up the
air.
‘I’m sorry
Miss Evans, but the other professors and I have agreed. We all think this is
the right decision for both of you to grow…accustomed.’
Lily felt
sick.
She hoped it
was all just some terrible nightmare and that she would wake up at any second,
but that second never came and when she opened her eyes both James and Professor
Dumbledore were still there. Nothing had changed.
‘I acknowledge
the fact that you two don’t get along,’ Professor Dumbledore spoke softly, his
hands coming together in front of him, ‘and if you are both to be Head Boy and
Girl, you will have to learn how to be in the same room as each other at
least.’
Professor
Dumbledore turned to James and continued, ‘Plus, I feel it will also benefit
your maturity Mr Potter. We all selected you for important reasons, however, if
you are to be Head Boy, I feel that it would be best if we did some serious
improvements over the summer…I believe Miss Evans can help you there.’
This comment
brought James out of his dazed expression, and he looked at the headmaster’s
pointed look. He sighed in exasperation before retaliating.
‘But, summer,
professor? That’s torture! I have to spend six weeks with her?’
James looked
over at Lily, who was scrunching her fists together at her sides, visibly
seething at him.
‘No, Mr
Potter, the last half of summer. That’s why I’ve chosen to tell you your Head
positions before you returned home.’
Dumbledore
pushed his large wooden chair back and stood up from behind his desk, watching
James absently run a hand through his scruffy black hair as he pondered the
situation.
‘It will be a
good experience James. And it isn’t all summer. I do think this is right for
you both.’
He turned his
attention to Lily, ‘I do hope you will be able to accept this, Miss Evans.’
Lily glanced
quickly at James then back to the Professor. She nodded silently, afraid that
if she said anything else, it would probably result in her screaming.
‘Wonderful,’
he beamed, moving towards them, ‘James will arrive at your place of residence
in three weeks.’
Lily looked at
Professor Dumbledore suddenly remembering, ‘Wait, aren’t I at least allowed to
tell my parents first?’
The headmaster
laughed softly, ‘There’s no need to worry. Both of your parents have been
informed of the situation.’
Silence
followed this information as the two students stood, processing this news.
Whatever would come of this?
‘Now,’
Dumbledore spoke, bringing them back down to Earth, ‘the coaches will be
arriving soon; you may go and pack for the journey home.’
Lily and James
stepped out of the headmasters’ office and began to walk back to the Gryffindor
Common Room. Lily, knowing that James kept stealing sly glances at her, kept
quiet as they walked back. Just looking at him made her want to smack that
annoying smirk from his face.
Arriving at
the portrait door, Lily muttered the password and they walked into the Common
Room. Flopped on the couches were the people that Lily despised the most, and
from the corner of her eye she watched James walk over to them. Lily couldn’t
believe she had to spend half of her holiday with that jerk. She had worked so
hard to get the Head Girl title…It was just her luck that it had to come at a
price.
‘Come to think
of it,’ she wondered in disbelief, ‘how did he get that title? He’s an idiot!
What was Dumbledore thinking?’
She sighed and
walked up to the stairs to the girls’ dormitories, rolling her eyes as she
heard Sirius say something unintelligent about her.
It was going
to be a long three weeks.

‘I can’t
believe this is happening,’ James groaned, slumping across the soft cushions in
front of the fire.
Both Sirius
and Remus had found James’ predicament incredibly funny and had collapsed
laughing after he’d grudgingly told them why he’d been called to see
Dumbledore.
‘You and Evans for three weeks?’ Sirius
laughed, hitting the side of the sofa for emphasis ‘Oh that’s excellent!’
James folded
his arms, ‘What’s excellent about it? She so…’
‘Prissy!’
Sirius ended for him, pinching his face together like he’d just bit into a
lemon, ‘Yeah good luck with that.’
‘Come on
guys,’ James moaned, ‘you’ve gotta get me out of this! Break my leg or
something!’
This only
resulted in firing Sirius’ laughter again and James turned to Remus to try and
get some sort of sense out of his friends.
‘How do I get
out of this?’
Moony stood up
and James looked at him knowing that a lecture was coming.
‘I think it’s
a good idea,’ he said confidently after some thought.
‘Yeah me too!’
Sirius chuckled, a silly grin plastered across his face, ‘I wanna see how it
turns out.’
James stood
up, annoyed, ‘You guys piss me off sometimes!’
Holding his
hands up in a mock submission, Sirius leaned back on the couch, ‘Prongs look at
it like this. What Evans lacks in social skills, she makes up for in body, and
you get to spend three weeks with her. I’d say that’s a pretty good deal mate.’
‘Why don’t you
do it then,’ James shot at him frostily, folding his arms tight across his
chest, ‘three weeks with that stuck up bitch is gonna kill me!’
‘You’re
exaggerating,’ Remus reasoned at the black haired Seeker, ‘Lily’s not that
bad.’
At that
moment, Lily Evans descended the stairs into the Common Room from the
dormitories pulling a large brown suitcase behind her. She walked haughtily towards
the group of them and they all looked up at her, expecting some sort of insult.
Glancing at
each of them in turn, her eyes rested on James. She spoke bitterly, ‘When you
come to my house, I don’t want any of your stupid…marauder-ness! I’ll tell you
once James Potter, I excel in charms and I will not think twice of charming away
some of the things that are very valuable to you, if you know what I mean!’
Lily glared at
Sirius when she heard him snigger.
‘And the same
goes for you Sirius Black, if you decide to just apperate over for a nice
‘chat’!’
Sirius just
looked at her, grinned and winked boyishly; earning a huff of exasperation and
her storming from the room, bag in tow.
James
collapsed onto the sofa again, groaning his protests into the red upholstery.
‘There is one
thing that I can say that might make this easier.’
James looked
at Sirius hopefully but he just paused and looked back at James, ‘Good luck.’
James threw
his head back into the soft cushions of the sofa as Sirius got up, followed by
Remus and Peter and walked to the boys’ dormitories.
‘Ugh, Lily
Evans!’ he thought despairingly, sticking his face deeper into the cushions,
‘It’s going to be a long three weeks.’
