Author's note- Hehe. chapter 6! This is the LAST chap of "Yours Hating
James Potter". Look for the sequel, "Without Love, Lily Evans" coming soon!
This chap consists of the last months of school (May and June). I hope you
all like it! And, by the way, a few of you have guess at it, so it's
useless to hide it. In "Without Love, Lily Evans" Lily and James spend many
hours in the library with schoolbooks (okay, so I didn't completely give it
away). Now, remember, READ AND REVIEW!!!
Disclaimer- I own absolutely nothing. Hogwarts is JK Rowling. All Harry Potter characters and other things are JK Rowlings. I OWN NOTHINGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!

Aha! Victory!!! We had a Transfiguration test a few days ago, and I PASSED!!! We got the results back today. Sure, I passed by a few points, but I passed. YES! Of course, Potter had to get top marks, but I PASSED!!! I PASSED!! This is great, wonderful, superb!!!
Yours,
Lily
May 5th
My upfall (is that a word, I never did well in Muggle English) has been followed by a downfall. I remembered one thing: finals. I don't think I'll be able to pass the Transfiguration final exams! I can't even pass a normal transfiguration exam, much less a FINAL exam. What am I going to do? Professor McGongall was so kind as to remind us today after class, and she was looking at me to whole time she says it.
Well, I'd better prepare myself for being held back a year, and be in first year for the REST OF MY LIFE. I'll never get Transfiguration. All that waving of the wand, muttering of words, and things change in front of your eyes with a poof, I just DON'T GET IT!!! What am I going to do?

Potter is a brat, a spoiled rotten BRAT. Do I have to spell that? B.R.A.T. Brat=Potter. URGH! I hate him, I hate him, I hate him. I. HATE. HIM. I was studying Transfiguration in the library with Jen, who was trying desperately to get some of it into my head while Maddy and Meg were looking up something for History. We decided we were going to spend an hour every night in the library until final exams (as Jen, Meg, and Maddy also feel they need the extra studying).
I was JUST ABOUT to get something when Potter and his goonies walked over.
"Ha, Evans can't even get a simple hay to needle spell!" he laughed behind my back.
I swerved around in my seat and said, "Potter can't even get a simple levitation spell."
I used my sweetest voice too, but I couldn't help it. I was scowling.
Potter gave me one of those looks that I HATE.
He turned and walked away, much to my satisfaction. When we stood up to leave I put my hand in my back to put my book back, when it exploded. While Potter was insulting me, one of his goonies, probably Sirius Black, who finds it hilarious if someone's stuff is ruined, or Peter Pettigrew, who will do anything he's told, stuck a dungbomb in my bag. Now all my books and everything are dirty, and it took me an hour to get them clean, even with cleaning spells.
Yours, LOATHING James Potter,

Evans and her friends are being insufferable. They spend most of their evenings in the library, studying. All I need to study for is Charms, the rest are cake, sliced and set on a platter. But Charms can wait, right now my number one priority is to get out of school with as many detentions as I can, without getting expelled. Sirius is beating me, but that's because Mum and Dad keep sending me warnings, and I feel guilty. for about two days.
Well, anyway, Evans decided to seek revenge on me for that little dungbomb-bag-library incident (which I didn't even plan, I just saw her there, her bag completely unguarded, and then gave the dungbomb to Sirius to put in there). When we woke up yesterday our floor was covered with dungbombs, so we couldn't move without getting plastered. We managed to get out of our room with blowing only about fifty.
I also got a letter from home, along with the newspaper. Nothing much there, just the usual: warnings, more threats, blah, blah, blah.

May 12th
I'm so proud! I actually changed a piece of hay into a needle, without setting it on fire!!! Now if only I could get the rest of the stuff.
Anyways, Jen is trying to think of a way to get me to learn all this stuff within a month. How she's going to do it, who knows.
Yours,
Lily
P.S.- Maybe I should actually listen to McGonagall now. nah.
May 14th
Maria is becoming insufferable as well. Honestly, she might as well start a "I Love James Potter" club. She'd probably make President.
She was all "Maybe you deserved it" when I told her that Potter had spilt some ink down the back of my robes during Potions. It's bad enough the PROFESSOR took his side and said it was an accident, I don't need my ROOMMATE to say the same thing. To think, I have to share a room with this girl for the next seven years. Well, on a brighter side, if I fail Transfiguration, I won't have to share a room with her. but then I'd have to leave my friends.
Potter and his goonies are off at detention, so I'm getting a few minutes of peace. Good riddance, I say.
Yours TRYING to avoid Maria,
Lily

Another letter from home. Mum said she's just finishing her new book. She'll wait for me to get home before she sends it to her editor. She always lets me read her work before ANYONE else, even PETUNIA (which I think annoys her a bit). Now I'm really homesick. Gosh, why can't they just like. oh, I don't know. give us medicine or something???
Yours,
Lily
May 21st
I've got detention tomorrow night. I blew up the table in the library trying to transfigure a rock into a rat. Didn't work to well. The librarian just about killed herself yelling at me, so I'm stuck with detention. At least this time it wasn't on purpose. Worse yet, I have detention with Potter and his gooines. Jen does too, since she was with me and the librarian wouldn't believe she had nothing to do with it.
I'll write again, if I survive.
Yours,
Lily
May 23rd
I survived! I survived! I SURVIVED! Can you believe it??? I can't! Ugh, I didn't think I would either, that's how bad it was!
We were split into groups to clean the dungeons. I think the professors are trying to kill me, deliberately.
Maddy, Potter, and I were one group, Jen, Sirius, and Peter were another, and Meg and Remus were the third.
Our job: mopping the floors, without magic. It wasn't so bad for me, not the job. I clean all the time at home. But I had to do it with Potter. That, in itself is a challenge. I HATE HIM! Urgh! He had to act all stupid all the whole time!
DO SOME PEOPLE EVER GROW UP???
Yours,
Lily
May 26th
Maria is being plain annoying today. She literally carved MW+JP= true love on her bed. How pathetic! I know, I know, I should be nice to her. But what girl in their right mind could actually like, much less think their in love with, James Potter.
Meg noticed it first.
"I'd magic that out of there," she said, "If McGonagall, or any of the professors, sees it, I'm sure she won't be happy."
"Oh, be quiet," Maria snapped, and continued doing her homework.
Jen and I were sitting on my bed doing our homework, and Maddy was doing her's on the bed beside us (not enough room on the bed with us and our books, so she and Meg were on the bed beside us).
Maria was a bit annoyed, I think, but I'm pretty sure she'll get rid of it soon.
Yours,
Lily
May 28th
Another letter from home. Great, I know I only write in this when I get letters from home, but, hey, I'm busy. This time there was only a short note from my sister, a newspaper article, and a letter from my parents. Thankfully, it was good news. Dad was recognized by the ministry for serving them as Head of the Magical Enforcement Office, or whatever it's called, for five years. There was a whole article on it. It was actually pretty cool. They had a picture of our family on the front, all in dress robes, at one of Dad's "business banquets", which are, by the way, so incredibly boring last year I HAD to put some fireworks in the punch just to liven it up. I had no idea that it would blow the wig off the Minister's head. Thankfully, no one but Mum and Dad know it was me, and they're to ashamed to tell anyone.
Anyways, they talked about Kel and I. Here's what they said about me: "Mr. Potter's oldest son, James, is currently attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he is in his first year. He is currently in the top ten pupils in his class."
And Kel: "Mr. Potter's younger daughter, Kelly, will be attending Hogwarts in 2 years. She currently stays at home with her parents."
You'd think they'd be able to come up with something a BIT better.
James
P.S.- I'm in the top ten in my class? Cool.
June 1st
To help "us" remember that "we" have exams (really, they're just reminding me that I have exams), Maddy has been so kind as to make a little countdown paper on our board, counting down to the exams. As if I not stressed out as it is.
Potter is being a brat, a genuine brat. He "accidentally" spilt pumpkin juice down my back at dinner today. I had to go up to the tower and change, then I MISSED the rest of dinner. The brat. And now I'm hungry. Urgh. I just wonder if, by chance, he was to fall of a cliff, if anyone would miss him.
Yours Hating James Potter,
Lily
June 3rd
Maria's mad at me, again. No surprise there. She "overheard" me (more like was listening in on me) tell Jen that I wished Potter would fall off a cliff. Now she's saying that I'm just jealous because he's a great student and that he is actually cute. JEALOUS? Of POTTER? That's just too funny. Why would anyone be jealous of Potter?
Yours,
Lily
P.S.- Maybe, if I'm lucky, Maria will stop talking to me all together! Doubt it, though. She needs someone to be yelling at, and it's usually me.
June 7th
End of the year exams are in ONE WEEK! I'm panicking, I really am. I still don't get Transfiguration. They'll probably send me back to first year! Ugh, now I've got myself worked up. Okay, calm down, Lily, calm down. I'm trying not to panic, I really am. It's just not working. Maybe I should put this down for tonight, and finish studying.
Yours,
Lily
June 9th
I've decided that I'm going to put this diary down until finals are all over. I realized how much time it took for me to write in here when I could have been studying. Wish me luck, diary!
Yours,
Lily
June 23rd
Finals are OVER!!!! I think I passed, too. All of them. Well, they were all easy, except Transfiguration. But I'm pretty sure I passed it. Maybe I won't have to stay a first year forever, then! Even POTTER couldn't ruin this! We don't get the scores until later, but that's okay. I'm pretty sure I did well. Unless, by some quirk, I didn't.
Yours,
Lily
June 25th
Finally, a nice week without classes or the worries of finals! We have to wait the week out to see our scores, but we're all pretty happy. My friends and I went down to the lake today, just for fun. We brought our Exploding Snap cards, and played that by the lake. I won twice.
Yours,
Lily
June 30th
They pass out our grades today. Tomorrow, we're all going home. Back to London. It feels so strange. I'm writing this before anyone else is awake. I'm really nervous about our marks. At least MY marks. What if I did horrible? What will Mum and Dad think? Petunia will laugh at me. She does well in school.
London. I'm going back to London tomorrow. Wow. Tonight's the end-of- the year feast. They'll hand out our marks then. Everyone's relieved. No more work until September. I'm going to miss it here. I'm going to miss my friends.
We all promised to write letters daily, or at least every two days, and invite each other over often. Oh, Jenn's awake.
Yours,
Lily
Later
I passed! I passed EVERYTHING! Even Transfiguration! Yes! Yes! YES! And, to top it all off, I had a wonderful night! At the end-of-the-year feast, I managed to switch seats with one of my friends, so Potter was on end of our group, and I was on the other! It was wonderful! I didn't even have to LOOK at him. It felt a little weird though, not to hear him making fun of me at meals. Oh, well. And then, Gryffindor won the House Cup! That was the first time in like, three years. It was sort of surprising, being as how we have Potter and Black losing us points every day. Then again, they earn us a lot too.
Yours,
Lily

We're on the Hogwarts Express. I'm sitting in the little bathroom they have back here, writing. It's kinda small in here. We're almost to London. I'm half glad to be going home, and half sad because I'll miss Hogwarts.
It's a strange feeling. Today was completely Potter free, at least so far. Maria is, unfortunately, sitting with us. I think I can survive a few more hours with her, though. I get a complete summer FREE of Potter and Maria!!! YES!!! VICTORY!!!!! Oh, well, I'd better get back before Jen, Meg, and Maddy get worried. Maria would never worry about me. She reminds me of Petunia. She'd rejoice if I happened to disappear.
Yours,
Lily
Author's Note- Ta da! Took me a long, LONG, time but I was caught up in my other story "Erika-The Legacy of Lily and James". Oh well. It's up now. Thanks to the person who emailed me, and the one that reviewed every chap (I'm not sure if they're the same person). It's thanks to them that this is finished. Anyways, this is the end of "Yours Hating James Potter." Now we move onto year 2, in the story "Without Love, Lily Evans". Look for that soon. Now, I'm off to work on "Erika". Buh-bye! Oh, yeah, REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
