How To Be A Heartbreaker | James Potter [COMPLETED]

Chapter Three: Literal Asshat

Sapphire woke up on the wrong side of her new bed, in a dorm which she shared with none other than cousin Lily. aka Lilyflower, Alice, a girl she didn't particularly like called Marlene or something, and a crazy one called Sybill- the weirdest name Sapphire's ever heard. Her first lesson of the day was Potions with the Slytherin's, who Lily and all the other Gryffindor's despised with pure hatred. Sapphire, on the other hand, didn't see what was so bad about them. She was about to be one of them, but the hat changed its mind.

"Come on, Sapphire breakfast is about to start,'' said Lily, tugging on Sapphire's blanket. "Hurry up so we hopefully eat and leave before Potter and his friends wake up."

"Why? I like Remus, he's the only decent one from what I've heard," Sapphire mumbled in her pillow, refusing to open her eyes no matter how hard Lily tugged on her blanket. "Lilian Evans, if you do not stop tugging I will hex you into oblivion, and we both know I'm capable of doing so. Lily, knowing her cousin's an extremely bright and talented witch, let go immediately and glared at her.

"Sapphire, please, " Sapphire sighed, getting up and going to the bathroom. She smirked and took her time, just to piss Lily off, who was standing behind the bathroom door, stomping her foot. "Move your bum, damnit!"

Chuckling, she got dressed and walked out of the bathroom, smiling at the scowling Lily. " Sapphire. I've always wondered, what's your real hair color? Every time I see you, it's either purple - which I love by the way or the awful blonde your mom made you dye and it didn't suit you at all."

"It's brown, a bit like yours," Sapphire said, grabbing her book bag and her wand Till wear it back in its normal color a special time. Say, do you have any prom here? "

"There's a ball for Halloween, which is in, what, a month or so shall we?"

Lily and Sapphire walked down the stairs and to the common room, where the Marauders weren't there. Lily grinned and sighed peacefully. " Thank God ", she whispered, making Sapphire chuckle. They made their way to the Great Hall for breakfast. What do you have for the first period, Sapph? "

" Potions, you? " Lily frowned, saying she had Herbology. putting pieces of bacon on her plate. The two of them ate and joked here and there, but it was difficult for Sapphire to talk while heaven was in her mouth. God knows Beauxbatons breakfast was nowhere near Hogwarts delicious goodness.

Before leaving, Marlene decided to join them. Lily shot Sapphire a look the "be - nice - she's - not - that - bad " look but Sapphire ignored her and smirked, already knowing who'll be her first target.

" Say, Marlene, your hair looks amazing. What shampoo do you use? " Sapphire asked, a sugary sweet smile on her face, while Lily was watching her suspiciously.

Marlene answered, loving the attention she was getting from the already - most popular girl in Hogwarts, and Sapphire didn't even have to try to get that high on the social scale. Oh, she loved this place already.

Severus Snape was furious, completely angered, and on the verge of exploding if anyone looked at him could he have been so stupid? For years on end, he has been trying to figure the Marauders out more specifically, James Potter Oh, how he loathed the oblivious fool. Severus had had a crush on no one but Lily Evans for as long as he could remember and his stupid friends and ego had crushed all the hope he had in sweeping her off his feet. Not to mention Potter and his stupid gang of baboons, butting in when Severus had Lily all to himself. But no, James Potter is a Gryffindor, James Potter is the best Quidditch player, James Potter is the funny Marauder, James Potter is a prankster. and the list went on and on. While poor Severus was in the background, all the work he had done flown away because James Potter suddenly had a fancy for Lily, his Lily. Severus was about to let go: he was so bloody tired of holding on to Lily, when she obviously could not see him as anything but a friend, at most. He had been there for her when not even Alice had, yet Lily dropped him as soon as she made friends. Severus tried, oh how hard he tried to not let her slip through his fingers, but Potter had put an invisible gate between Severus and Lily.
