Wings For The Hopeless (Teddy Lupin love story)

Chapter 4

'Lily' he whispered. 

Mhhm.

His arm slowly crawled around my hip, making me wriggle from his touch.

'Stop it Teddy, it's not fair, you're taking advantage of me' I whined.

He smirked, his hand withdrawing from my hip and towards my face.

I smiled blissfully, wishing it would never end.

His hand came closer to my face, my breath got caught in my throat but I continued to stare into his eyes. 

His fingers trailed down my cheek, my face turning as red as my hair. 

Suddenly his hand slapped my forehead.

I gasped jumping from him.

Since when did this happen?

'Bloody hell Teddy, what was that for!' I whimpered, rubbing my now tender forehead. 

He said nothing just crawled towards me like a tiger ready to pounce on his prey.

And I was the prey. 

I tried to get away from him, knowing he was up to something considering the evil glint in his chocolate brown eyes.

I wasn't fast enough.

I tumbled off my bed, my head hitting the ground. 

''OW! JESUS CHRIST'' I shouted in pain and I sluggishly lifted my body from the dorm floor. 

'Uh Lily, why the hell were you mumbling Teddy's name?' Asked a curious voice beside me.

My eyes instantly widened, quickly getting up and stumbling slightly. 

'Pfttttt, what the? You're joking. I could have been talking about my teddy bear?' But my reply came out more like a feeble question.

''I don't think people moan about their teddy bears'' Mumbled Rose, looking awkwardly to the ground. 

The air filled with awkward tension before I broke the silence.

''What time is it? Because I'm pretty sure we're going to be late like last year.'' I said as I began to get up, my elbow throbbing painfully and my face still blushing crazily from being caught moaning about Teddy.

Let's just say, last year was... eventful.

Last year after the dinner, Rose and I, well Rose was feeling naughty. We were about to go to sleep before Rose produced a bottle of whiskey. I was shocked to the core but after Rose's persistent nagging to just have a sip I gave in and had a bit. 

We started to play a game of who could finish off the bottle first. Don't even ask WHAT the hell I was thinking at the time but after an hour we were absolutly drunk. We were basically pissing our selves from laughter to sobbing our hearts out about our love lifes (Well hers) and poodles. 

The next morning we woke up with the worst hang over known to muggle or wizard. Our faces covered with snot, mascara, pillow marks, sleepy dust and a weird purple stain on Roses cheek. 

We always suspected it was Roses grape flavored jelly lipbalm. 

We began to slowly get ready, totally unaware of the time. We only got our skirts on when I checked the time which was 11:00 AM, school started at 8:00 AM and classes at 9:00 AM.

Lets just say, running around without your shoes and not even washing your face is kind of scary while popping your head frantically into every class without knowing your schedule then getting a months detention is quite embarassing. 

To be honest, I liked getting drunk. Although I hated the taste of liquor burning my throat and making me choke, I liked the sensation of being able to forget everything. The past, the present and the future. To forget the mistakes and faults, just to forget. But obviously I would never tell anyone that, after all I was Lily Luna Potter so I wasn't allowed to be miserable or reveal my problems. 

I had to be perfect daughter to match up to Harry Potter.

Rose groaned at the memory before looking at her watch. Her face basically turned 10 shades paler.

''Uh um Lily, we're dead.''

I gulped. ''How dead.''

''Like, three classes missed dead.'' 

Kill me now.

We started to run around, me brushing my hair with my fingers while hopping about with one sock, Rose on the other hand was brushing her teeth with one hand and buttoning up her top. 

We left our room in 15 minutes but we were still getting ready such as Rose trying to put on her other heel and me doing my tie, running towards Potions.

We finally reached the door, panting and gasping. I was wheezing for air while Rose hunched over. I still don't know how Rose even managed to walk in her 6 inch candy apple red high heels much a less run across half the school and down the stairs. 

Finally after 30 seconds trying to get our breaths back, we stared at each other, our eyes challenging who was going to knock on the door. 

''Not me!'' We both said at the same time.

''Ughhh come on Lily, just do it. It's easy peasy.'' 

I glared at her. ''If it's so easy bloody peasy than why don't YOU do it?''

She rolled her eyes at my reply. ''You're the teachers pet Lily, they all love you. God knows what tidbits they've been swapping with the new teachers about me. Heaven forbid when they find out when I set fire to the kitchen.''  

She blinked her eyes at me, pouting her lips like a puppy.

No no noooo, not the puppy face.

I tried to look away, I really did but she began to whimper forcing me to look at her 'So-adorable- please - adopt-me-and-love-me-and-knock-at-the-door-pwease-Lily-kins' expression.

I sighed making her squeal quietly and hugging me. 

I slowly knocked at Death's door, dreading it to be open.

''Why look who joined us.'' 

Oh Merlin.
