"Oh, my lord Lily! What happened?" questioned Aoife as she saw Remus standing in the door carrying a weak Lily.
"Not now Aoife, she has been through enough!"
"Something has happened to my best friend and I demand to know what."
"Your demanding is not helping her at all, Aoife, if you want to help her get me some ice and bandages."
"Sirius, James opened the doors into her room and pull down her bed covers. Girls go and get the house elves."
"Fuck man what happened to her?"
"That cousin of yours Kevin."
"Kevin? He's not my cousin he is more like a step cousin. Aunt Gracie can't have any kids so she adopted two."
"Well, he was trying to rape her but he didn't get very far. He hit her pretty hard though."
"I knew that guy wasn't to be trusted." growled Sirius
"Ya, we all got a bad vibe from him." interjected Aoife as she returned with ice. "Is she okay?"
"She isn't dead and nothing's broken she just has a nice little bruise." Replied Remus while applying ice to her face.
"Where is Ms. Lily?" came a squeaky voice from the end of the bed. "Where is she!" the little elf demanded
"Calm down, little one, she is right there." growled Sirius.
"Oh, Ms.! How did this happen to her!?" the elf glared at the three guys. "WHICH ONE OF YOU HURT MY LILY?" Sirius was about to lung at him and strangle him but Lily spoke.
"None of them hurt me, Raff."
"Oh, Ms. who is causing you great pain?"
"I- ah- hit my head against the bed post. I'll be fine; can you just hide this lump on my face?"
"Of course anything for you Ms." at that he snapped his fingers and the lump disappeared along with the pain.
"Thank you." she then beckoned the house elf forward and kissed him on the head. "Now don't you dare mention this to anyone you hear."
"Yes Ms." he departed from there presence, and as soon as he left the girls started to fuss over her and talk at the same time.
"STOP!" screamed James "You lot are giving me a headache and I bet, you are giving one to Lily too. Now I suggest we leave her to rest until dinner. Everyone back to the game room." At that they all went to the game room.
"James." called Lily before he disappeared into the room.
"Yes?"
"Thank you."
"No problem."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Why the fuck would he do that!?" rattled James
"Because she wouldn't kiss him or as he put it chill with him."
"So he beat her because she wouldn't get into his pants!" declared Aoife
"Yes." answered Remus
"I am so going to kill him." declared Aoife and James at that same time.
"No, we need to let Lily handle this, but if she doesn't we need a plan for revenge."
"Remus I like that idea." so they spent the next few hours thinking up off pranks and humiliating things to do to him. Little did they now was Lily was doing the same thing.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Hey guys." Lily's wavering voice came from the door leading into her room.
"Hey Lily, are you okay?"
"I'm fine Aoife, but we need to go to dinner. Can't be late can we."
"Lily, we don't think that you should go to dinner."
"You all don't think I should go or you don't think is should go James."
"Both, we don't want you to get hurt again."
"I won't because I will have you as my escort." Looking at his shocked face she added. "If it's okay with you."
"It is perfectly fine with me. Come on guys lets go to dinner."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Dinner went smoothly at first, until Kevin showed up.
"Sorry, mum I was taking a shower."
"Its okay sweetie, come I saved you a seat right next to Lily." a malicious grin spread across Kevin's face as he sat down next to Lily who was avoiding looking at him.
"Kevin, can you pass the rolls." Aoife gritted through her teeth.
"Kevin? Oh, no dear this isn't Kevin; this is his twin brother David. Silly girl how could you get them mixed up?"
"I wouldn't know maybe you should ask him." she shot a glare at him but before Gracie could reply there was a crash. Lily had stood up so fast that she had knocked her chair over.
"YOU BASTARD!" Lily screamed and hit David as hard as she could across his face. She didn't care at this moment that Gracie was shocked to hear language like this coming from her angel's mouth.
"Lillian. . . . ."
"Shut-up Gracie." screamed Lily and everyone was utterly shocked. "David tried to make me think he was Kevin and I fucking believed him! He tried to rape me but no you wouldn't know because he couldn't hurt a fly. Well I have news for you, he's not perfect and I am not perfect either. So he better stay the fuck away from me." Lily quickly glanced around the table and took in the shocked looks from her friends and the glances of praise from Sirius.
"Lillian, I expected better from you of all people, but everyone loses their head once in a while, and hanging around with such people would drive you to insanity quickly." Lily hurriedly walked over to where Gracie was now standing until she was in her face.
"Don't you every talk about my friends like that! They haven't done anything to you, so keep them out of this." she walked back to David who was sitting on the floor and kicked him hard in the stomach. "Don't ever touch me again." Then she spoke to her friends "I'll be outside." without another word she was gone.
"Um, I'm going to go and get her back." James got up and followed her outside. "LILY! LILY!"
"James? I'm over here." Lily called as she ran over to James tall figure.
"Lily, you are going to get sick come on inside."
"You are going to get sick too, and I am not going inside right now I need time to think."
Fuck she is beautiful, especially with her hair stuck to her head like that and her clothes hung to every curve on her body.
"Lily, why did you do that inside?"
"I needed to do something and I had to get my point across that I wasn't to be taking advantage of or messed with."
"Geez, I could have told them that."
"James, I have never done anything that bad to you."
"Yea, it was worse."
"James." she cried as she punched his shoulder. "I wouldn't hurt you purposely."
"Really?" He asked raising an eyebrow suddenly realizing they were so close that there noses were almost touching.
"Don't do that."
"Don't do what?"
"That eye thingy, it makes me feel like I am under scrutiny."
"Oh, well what would make you feel better?"
"This." Lily then stood on her toes and kissed James on the lips.
