So the next day Lily, Zelia Flynn and Hugo told the W people to meet in the room of requirement when the coin glowed.

"Have we got everyone?" Lily asked in the common room that night.

"Pixie, Rachel, Paige, Caitlin, Rick, Josh, Luke, Marvin..." Zelia droned on.

"Hey, wait a second what about Sc-Malfoy?" Lily asked trying to stay calm.

"Well we don't want dirt at the meeting do we?" Hugo said looking at her funny.

She scowled at him.

"Everyone with a W means everyone with a W," Lily said.

They just looked her.

"I'll give it to him myself then shall I?" she said.

Still they looked at her.

"Ugh," Lily said irritably and snatched the coin out of Zelia's hand.

As she walked to the Slytherin common room she wondered if she should have been a little but more subtle. She didn't like Scorpius she just didn't hate him which she was sure would raise suspicions.

She was so busy thinking she walked straight into somebody. She flew to the floor though the boy she had bumped into managed to stay on his feet. She looked up and saw that Scorpius had offered his hand to help her up. She took it and he pulled her up.

"Are you ok?" he asked as his fingers slid away from hers.

"I've been better," Lily said truthfully.

"Haven't we all?" he said glumly.

"I think Flynn's been having a pretty good day actually," she said.

Scorpius nodded then made to leave.

"Wait a second," Lily said suddenly.

"Yes?" he asked brushing his hair with his hand.

"Um, can you come to the room of requirement when this coin lights up?" she asked.

"What coin?" he asked curiously.

"Oh, right yeah," she said then realised she had dropped it.

She started spinning and searching the ground looking for it.

She and Scorpius found it at the same time, she went to get it then saw him reaching for it too. Not wanting them to touch at the same time she stood up and let him get it.

"Thanks," she said.

"Well, see you when the coin glows," he said and walked away.

That weekend Lily pressed the coin and went to the room of requirement. Rachel, Paige and Josh were already there.

"Hiya," Paige said when she saw then.

She was a 2nd Ravenclaw with soft blonde hair and grey eyes.

"Hi," Zelia said.

"Hello," Rachel said.

She was a 1st Hufflepuff with wavy brown hair and green eyes.

Josh just looked at them. He was a Slytherin 2nd year with brown hair and white teeth.

Lily sat down and waited. Soon the room was full of about 30 children mostly from Gryffindor.

They all looked at Lily. Typical, just because she was Harry Potter's daughter didn't mean she had to act like him.

"Ok well, I want to save my dad and I just thought you might like to help me get your parents back," she said.

Not exactly a motivating speech but it was all she had.

"You think we want a W tattoo on our face," a Hufflepuff called Rhya screeched.

"No," Lily said raising her eyebrow.

"Well we've already been marked like death eaters and I for one don't want to again," said a tiny Slytherin called Nieve.

"That W is nothing like a death eaters!" Lily said her voice rising.

"Yeah, it is," Rhya called again.

"That W is a mark of our parents bravery, the way they came to save us, how they sacrificed themselves and a mark of OUR bravery too," Lily said very loudly.

They just looked at her.

"FINE, BUT DONT EXPECT ME TO SAVE YOUR PARENTS!" she yelled at them.

She then walked to the door. Someone grabbed her forearm as she passed. She tried to pull away but they held her, tight.

"For Gods sake Malfoy, GET OF ME!" she yelled.

"No," he said simply.

"Just whenever you feel like telling me why," she said angrily.

He looked behind him. Everyone except Zelia, Flynn and Hugo had lost interest in their conversation. He leaned towards her slowly, Lily thought he was going to kiss her, but he instead stopped at her ear.

"I want to help you," he whispered.

Lily felt relief flood her chest.

"Thank you," she said and hugged Scorpius.

He smiled at her then turned to the other students.

"Listen up werdios Lily's trying to save your parents so you'll help her," Scorpius said fiercely.

That made everyone nod.

Scorpius looked at her.

"Yeah, so we do it tonight," she said and when no one argued added, "meet in the entrance hall at midnight."

Everyone started to leave until only Lily and her friends where left.

"WHAT WAS THAT?" Hugo screamed at her.

"What?" Lily said, shocked.

"THAT...THAT...THING WITH YOU AND SCORPIUS," Hugo said still shouting.

"What, you mean when I didn't spit in his face like you expect me to," Lily said her voice getting high.

"I THOUGHT HE WAS GOING TO BLOODY KISS YOU!" Hugo roared.

"DONT BE STUPID YOU PATHETIC COW!" Lily screamed back.

"YOU'VE ALREADY KISSED HIM, HAVENT YOU?" Hugo shouted.

"I'M ELEVEN!" she yelled.

"SHUT IT BOTH OF YOU," Zelia said and jumped in between them, wand out.

"Hugo wise up, and Lily, just...don't go there," she said.

Lily glared at all her friends, they glared back.
