"Are you kidding me?" she frowned in disgusted frustration at the stupid mistletoe above her. She was going to kill Black.
She sighed and looked around the empty hall for someone to save her. It was Christmas Eve and she was stuck in the doorway until someone came and kissed her.
She perked up when she heard footsteps coming towards her, "Hello?"
Then, to her horror, at the end of the hall Snape walked towards her.
She cursed and looked around frantically for someone else. She needed to be saved for a different reason now.
Whistling could be heard from behind her so she spun to face her possible hero.
And cursed again. Potter.
She winced and looked at the approaching boys, neither of whom were paying enough attention to notice her yet.
She sighed, gotta pick your demons.
She cast a silencing spell so the other boy wouldn't hear.
"Potter!" she whispered.
He failed to hear over his whistling.
"Potter!" he looked up in surprise and stared at her suspiciously, it want often that she called him out for nothing...
"Help me out here?" She gave him puppy sag eyes and he was hooked. He just needed to know what he had to do.
"What can I help you with Madam?" She grimaced and stepped to the side, revealing Snape to Potter.
His eyes narrowed but then widened once he took in the whole picture. He sprinted under the door just before the still oblivious Snape reached his Lily.
He stood in front of Lily so Snape couldn't see her and spoke to the greasy haired got, "Scuse me Snape but could you find a different hall?"
The boy finally looked up from his book and glared at Potter, "What reason is that Potter?"
"Well..." he pointed up.
Snape paled and spun on his heel and hurried away.
Potter sighed and turned to face Lily and grinned, "Good?"
She smiled at the raven haired boy, "Yeah just one problem."
He raised an eyebrow, "One of your buddies charmed all of the mistletoe. Traps all females. Kinda hard."
His mouth fell open and she mentally applauded him, he hadn't shown this much restraint and manners in never.
Then again, he had hardly said a word to her since the year started.
Slowly he bent and gave her a peck on the cheek, blushing.
"Might be safest if we stick together for today Lils." Without further ado he grabbed her bags and started walking.
Over various hallways were little sprigs of mistletoe and every time Lily got trapped beneath one James was right there beside her before any other eager guy with a simple (and sweet) kiss on the cheek or forehead.
People stared and whispered but Lily dint care and James had gone back to whistling.
Sirius was nowhere to be found all day, much to Lily's disappointment. James couldn't have honestly cared less if she ever found Sirius, he didn't really mind their situation but he wasn't going to say anything.
