'I don't want to talk about it.' James made a move to stand but Lily flicked out her wand and held it to his throat, her eyes blazing like the sun in mid summer, able to scorch anything within half a second. James fell back onto the wooden bench again, his eyes staring carefully at the wand in Lily's hand. 'You wouldn't.' He said. 

'Try me.' Lily fiercely whispered. From the corner of her eyes she saw Scorpius grin. Her cheeks became red hot with anger. 'What are you smiling at!?' He composed himself almost immediately and shook his head with his hands up. 

'Lily put the wand down.' Albus said calmly from her side. 

'Not until one of them tell me what happened and stop all this stupid fighting. Was it like this last year?' Lily looked over her shoulder at Albus. 

'It was worse.' He grimaced. 

'Fine!' Scorpius exclaimed with a sly smile, 'it's not my secret anyway.' 

'Don't you dare.' James hissed. 

'He likes this girl and I decided to have a little bit of fun is all.' Scorpius shrugged as if it was nothing. 

'You mother f-' James lunged at Scorpius, pinning him to the ground and punching him again. Lily shouted an incantation but all her wand produced was a few sparks. Albus stepped in and said the incantation instead and did a funny hand movement with it that Lily made sure to remember. 

'Flipendo!' James flew through the air as the spell hit him right in the chest. He groaned as he got to his feet. Lily crouched and helped Scorpius to his feet, noticing the fresh trail of blood leaking out from the corner of his mouth.

'Lily get your hands off that filthy pure blood!' James yelled and pulled out his wand, pointing it directly at Scorpius. Lily pulled Scorpius behind her and held her wand aloft toward James.

'Grow up James, sometimes I wonder who is really the eldest of us.' Lily spat. James looked at his siblings, betrayal written all over his face. Then a shadow of anger took over his features as he looked at Scorpius standing behind Lily. 'James... Just leave.' Lily whispered loud enough for James to hear. His eyes trailed down to hers. 'Please.' She begged still pointing the wand at her eldest brother. James took a deep breath sharply then twisted and walked through the large double doors into the school. 

'Thank you.' Scorpius coughed. Lily just shook her head. Her heart was hammering in her chest so hard it felt like it was in her throat. Sure she had had a lot of fights with James in the past but nothing like this, no where near. 

'Come on lets go to the hospital wing.' Lily said numbly and walked through the double door entrance to Hogwarts with the two trailing behind her.
