Cookie?
Who: Lily Potter, Maria Wolf (referenced)
Where: Great Hall
When: Study time after lunch.
Rating/Warnings: N/A
Summary: Lily shares treats with a new friend.
Maria was nice enough, Lily had decided, glancing over at the girl as they shared Mum's cookies over Charms homework. A little lonely, maybe. Okay, actually, a lot lonely. She'd admitted to having no friends, and that had got Lily's sympathy genes stirring.
And then said she didn't really fit in.
Leave it to a Potter child to champion for the underdog. Lily had invited Maria to join her for lunch at the end of the Gryffindor table, sweetening the deal with cookies.
They'd compared notes, and shared reference checks, and two quills moved over parchment to finish their essays. "It's always easier when you've got someone to bounce ideas off," she said, glancing over at Maria again, then pushing the cookies toward her.
Homework went quickly, and the cookies soon after, and Lily was pleased to find that Maria wasn't in a hurry to go. They had few similarities, but still, it was easy to relate to not always fitting in, because who did, really? They talked, and Lily learned things that caused her to feel even more sorry for the girl, like the fact that she hadn't a mother, that her father was less-than-kind.
Lily was even more determined now to be her friend.
