The Taste of Love- Chapter one: "I Can't Stop Thinking About You"
Disclaimer: I don't own the cast of Harry Potter. So DON'T sue! *smiles* I only own the plot. I don't own "Can't Get You Out of My Head" either.
"Lily-I hate to admit it, but I've been cheating on you," Daniel Kornall admitted to the emerald-eyed Lily Evens. He shifted his foot and his mouth twisted into an awkward expression. His hands slipped into his pockets of his jeans, and one of them gripped his wand, incase she hexed him. Lily just stared at him; her eyes had stopped shining which they usually did when she was around him. She frowned, and tears formed in her eyes. She fought the urge to cry. Daniel had just broken her heart into three million un-fixable pieces. Daniel hated to see her cry so he turned on his heel and walked towards the Hufflepuff common room.
"Wait!" Lily called, her arm outstretched, tears pouring silently down her cheeks. Daniel turned around, but was walking backwards. "Who have you been cheating on me with?" Daniel opened his mouth to reply, but then a giggling Hufflepuff girl, Aya Reese, grabbed his arm and pulled into a hug.
"Did you break up with Lily yet?" She smirked. Before Daniel could answer, Lily was running in the opposite direction, towards the Gryffindor tower. She was now breaking into huge sobs. Her beautiful, long red hair swished over her shoulders, and her sneakers echoed in the hallways proving that her, Daniel, and Aya were the only ones in the corridor. Or so she thought. James Potter and Sirius Black were returning from the kitchens, arms full of pastries under the invisibility cloak. They waited until Lilly was gone from sight and Daniel and Aya were already down the corridor, Aya's shrill, loud, annoying giggles bouncing off the walls.
When the coast was clear James furiously spoke, "Damn Daniel! Lily was in love with him. She was always happiest with him. And he just went and cheated on her with that git!"
Sirius's face formed a smirk, "Look like Lily's not the only one in love." It took James to two seconds process exactly what Sirius had meant, and then he blushed deeply and smacked Sirius.
"Shut up!" James playfully exclaimed, his cheeks flushing with embarrassment.
"Why are your cheeks bright red then?" Sirius had made a point. James didn't respond. He had given in. "Well?"
"Maybe I do. Does it matter to you at all?" James frowned at his best friend. "Time for Siri Match Making!" Sirius's grin was wide and threatening.
James glared at Sirius, "Lets get upstairs before Professor Argulos (A/N: I'm to lazy to look up the real caretaker's name back then *yawns*) catches us." Sirius knew this was a pathetic attempt to escape his girls lecture. He nodded but with that smirk still upon his face. They walked silently upstairs under the cloak at about 8:00 PM, already dark. They stopped in front of the Fat Lady and pulled off James's cloak.
"Aura Light," James whispered intently. The fat lady swung open. They crawled through the portrait hole into the Gryffindor common room. There was a warm fire blazing in the fireplace, and red couches and arm chairs centered in the middle of the room. There were Gryffindors running about, laughing talking, some still doing their homework. And there was Lily, sitting in one of the arm chairs, wiping her tears with her finger and still sniffling. She was writing in a book that was brown and bound, with script on the front cover that said, "Who am I?". A muggle diary. Lily was muggle-born so she was often using muggle inventions because even though they were non-magic, she found them quite useful.
James pretended not to seen what happened and strolled over to Lily. They have been friends since first year. Really good friends in fact, but not as close as Sirius or Remus. James put on a look of concern and asked, "What is wrong Lily?" He sat down next to her and put his arm over her shoulders in a friendly way. Back near the portrait hole, Sirius was staring at Lily and James, still holding the pastries, smirking. James will comfort Lily, and Lily will fall for him. It was so easy, all she needed was encouragement.
"D-Daniel dumped me," Lily stuttered, closing her book and looking at Harry's concerned face, "For Aya."
"For Aya? Aya? That-that annoying girl with the shrill annoying voice?" James looks furious. Lily nodded. She did agree. Aya had a very high- pitched voice, and was constantly in your face. She stopped tearing. It felt better when James helped her through her problems, always have. Especially in this year, both him and hers sixth year when love confusion is most common.
"Are you doing okay? I know you loved Daniel so much," Harry continued. Lily nodded a yes, even though it wasn't true. Daniel had been the center of her life, for 3 glorious months. He had probably been cheating on her for at least two of those months. She frowned miserably and sighed.
"I'm gonna go get some sleep," Lilly informed James and silently walked up the stairs. James then walked back to Sirius and noticed he had eaten almost of the pastries. James snatched the last one and scowled.
"You ate all of them!"
"Yes, and I was about to eat one more," Sirius reached for the usurped pastry but didn't suceed. James ate the pastry while Sirius talked on and on.
"It's a perfect plan! You confront her about the break-up, and she'll fall in love with you! All she needs is me to help her do so."
"You seem quite determined," James finished the pastry. He took a quick glance at the couch Lily had been sitting at and saw her diary. "Oh! Lily has forgotten her diary! I'll bring it up to her."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lily entered her dorm, and sat on bed. She looked at he picture of her in James on her beside table. James and her were walking by the lake outside. In the moving picture, James and her were both laughing, and one of the giant squid's tentacle was emerging from the lake. It was her favorite photo, for James was one of her best friends. At that time, a girl named Abby came storming into the dorms.
"I heard you were dumped by Daniel! That idiot!" She exclaimed with rage. Before she could continue, James also came through the door. Abby and Lily both blushed a little.
"Ummm.What are you doing here?" Abby asked as she sat down on her bed and grabbed her pillow. She hugged it to her chest.
"Sorry, I came here to return Lily's diary. She had left it here," James apologized and gave Lily her diary. "Good night Lily," James smiled nicely and shut the door.
Abby flopped down on her bed, "You just were dumped by Daniel. You were like in love with him! You must feel miserable!" Abby was also Lily's best friend. She glanced over at Lily's tear-stained cheeks. "I hope you feel better. Obviously if Daniel dumped such an interesting girl as you, he's a bum. A lousy bum who doesn't see love even if it slaps him in the face. And worst of all he cheated on you! With Aya! I hate her.her annoying braids with that giggle! Oh and by the way, its not like I haven't said this before but James and you would make the most perfect couple! Can't you see that? You were made for eachother." Abby had a bad habit of talking large amounts at one time, especially fast also. Lily just stared at Abby and processed all the topics that had poured out of her mouth.
"Okay, yes I'm not feeling too good right now. If it's any obvious. And second of all, James and me are just friends. Nothing more than that. Now I would like to get some sleep, thank you very much." Lily crawled over to her trunk and got her pjs out. She drew the curtins around her four poster and changed. She then threw her days clothes on top of the trunk, too tired to put it away properly.
"Good night Lily." A pillow was then flung at Lily at top speed and hit her right in the face.
"Abby!" The pillow was then returned to its owner and Lily spoke, "I seriously need some sleep ok? I need to clear my brain."
"Ok, sorry. Good Night."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
James, Peter, Remus, and Sirius were all in their beds. There were four other boys in their dorm, but they were still downstairs finishing last minute homework. The lights were off, and the boys were talking.
"So what'd Lily say?" Sirius's grunt voice filled the ugly silence.
"Nothing really. She was talking with Abby. Probably about the Daniel- thing."
"What Daniel thing?" Remus asked, having missed out on the whole thing. He'd had to go study in the library.
"Daniel dumped Lily."
"He did! Why that-"
"Shhh.!" James silenced the group of friends. A light snoring sound filled the silence. They all laughed at little Peter. He had fell asleep.
"And James is gonna try to get Lily to notice him. Romantically, I mean."
"He is? James likes Lily!"
".Okay, I'll admit it. But don't tell her, Remus or Sirius. Statement directed mostly at Sirius. He tends to have a large mouth at times."
Remus was then heard laughing. Sirius scowled, "I do not!"
"Believe whatever you want. G'Night Sirius, and Remus. Sweet dreams little Peter. May snores come your way!" Sirius and Remus burst out laughing, and James joined them too. After the laughing stopped, James fell asleep as so as Remus and Sirius. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
