"And Gryffindor wins!" Oliver Smith screamed just as Lily Potter caught the snitch, her face beaming with happiness. The crowed began roaring with might as Gryffindor came to claim their win, the team patted each other's backs, the Slytherins sulking, and cursing under their breath. Lucky for the win, the sky was dressed in baby blue, with clouds of all shapes pinned on to its jacket, making the world seem so much better.
" Nice catch sis, you did it! " her brother Albus patted her back, causing her to flinch a little. "Wait till Dad, Mom, and James here about this!" he finished, running to see his other teammates. Not only did she win the first game of the season, she became Scorpious' girlfriend, and of course a prefect. So things seemed to measure up perfectly for young Lily and she had a right to be happy. Team Mates and classmates all came over to pat lily on the back, or just say some kind words, she just waved back or said thank you. She had to tell her brother the good news, that she won, becoming a prefect, and well maybe not having a boyfriend…Knowing James he'd probably come to Hogwarts and teach Scor a lesson. Anyway, She began to walk back to the castle for dinner, some sausage would be nice she thought to her self as she walked up from the quidditch pitch.
"Hey potter" a familiar voice caught Lily's attention, causing her heart to skip a beat or two. This wasn't just any voice, It was Scorpious', Scorpious Malfoy.
"Nice game, you did amazing" he began to jog to Lily's attention.
His hands were tucked in his Gryffindor jacket, his blonde hair sparkled in the air. As for his eyes…well his eyes were Lily's favorite, those dark grey eyes, glistening in the sun just above them
" Thank you Scor. and I could've done better, if dad was here, he wou-"
Suddenly lily had lost her voice, her lips tucked under Scorpious' soft warm lips. His hands wrapped around Her waist, their bodies intertwined. Before, winning the first game of the Season had made her the happiest in days, but if she didn't know she'd run into him, she'd have to say this was the best moment. Although this was only her second kiss with him, the feeling of his skin brushing against hers felt as if a big blanket had wrapped around her. The warmth of his breath made Lily giggle, Squirm with happiness like this moment could never end. But of course, moments like this cant last forever. She needed to eat, get some sleep, and do her Divination homework. She couldn't help but think what Hugo was doing in the great hall, waiting for her to come and do the homework. Lily finally had the urge to break away, her lips grew cold suddenly after his lips had extracted. She paused, looking at his dark grey eyes, which were locked into hers
I got to go, Eat some dinner, and finish my homework with Hugo, he's been waiting for a while now" lily sniffled at the cold air blowing around her. " but ill see you in the common room before bed, okay?"
" Yeah, you should get some food, I cant have you starving now, can I?" he said grabbing her hand which was now starting to freeze, from taking her gloves off. " Here, you can have my jacket, I'm not that cold anyway" he yawned.
"Oh, Scor your great but it's ok I'm fine, don't worry about a thing" she said winking. The two gathered hand in hand finally reaching the courtyard, their breath traveling in the cold air. Scorpious Leaned in, giving Lily a quick peck on the lips, leaving her speechless till she got to the great hall.
" SEE YOU LATER BABY". he yelled, trying to make sure she heard him over the crowed of students walking inside. Lily finally turned around, her long red hair fell over her shoulder, she waved back, her smile causing Scorpious to get a smile out of him self. She went inside, her heart racing faster then ever.
Dinner had went bye smoothly She finally found Hugo sitting at the end of the Gryffindor table, sitting next to Roxanne and Al. They seemed to be enjoying their food, laughing and talking in between bites, this day couldn't get any better she thought as she sad down next to Hugo. Her plate was already made, the food making her mouth water. Just as she got her bite of Mashed potatoes and sausage, Hugo managed to get her attention
" wow great game today Lily, it was pretty amazing you know, you winning the first game..beating those slytherins, that'll make my dad and your dad proud" he said after swallowing a huge piece of Sausage.
" Yeah thanks, I'm thinking about letting my dad know, tonight"
" Great, now any who, we have to get our divination homework done, or Firenze will kill us." He said as he shoved a mouth full of potatoes in his mouth
"Well come on, what are you waiting for lils, eat up! Come on!
Lily had only had a little time to finish her food and she enjoyed e every last minute of it. The Warmth of mashed potatoes cut down to her Famished stomach, the burn seem to please the stomach that was once cold.
" okay, okay, I'm ready, lets go!" she swallowed her last piece of sausage and washed it down with some water. She picked up her bag and headed to the Gryffindor common room.
"Mimbulus Mimbletonia" Lily whispered as she got to the fat lady
"You may enter" the fat lady smiled.
Lily and Hugo ran upstairs to their dorm rooms, changed back into their school robes and went straight to the fire where they planned to study.
"Rose will kill us when she finds out were not done with this " Hugo hissed at lily who seemed to be more focused on her dreams more then her divination homework. " Lily! Come on, we need to get this done, stop dreaming unless you want detention!" Hugo was now on the edge of his seat, his hands got clammy waiting for Lily to step out of dream land.
"Uh right…. Sorry Hugo. Yeah where were we?" she yawned looking down at her sheet, her quill trying from not working.
At least an hour had passed and the two had finally finished their work with the help of Rose. Lily was too tired to stay up with her brother and cousins but, She had to see Scor. She took her papers, stuffed them in her bag and put it on the edge of the arm chair, on the floor.
"So, Saturday tomorrow, the lake, giant squid?" Al beamed at his fellow cousins, his eyes wondering to the fire.
"Deff Al! uh say after lunch? Err.. I've got to do something" Hugo said Shrouding his shoulders. Everyone seem to take their eyes all from the warm fire to the bashful Hugo.
" And where do you think your going Hugo? Rose asked, emphysising on the word your.
"Well, that's clearly not your business sister, or I would've mentioned it just minutes ago". Hugo snapped back, turning his head toward the stairs. " I'm off to bed, err good night guys" As Hugo walked up to the common room, Al had thought the same thing, his eyes bunged a couple of times, causing him to sway into Lily's arm chair
" Hey!, you clutz!" she giggled, kicking her brother playfully.
"Tell me about it lis. Good night to you too, get some sleep and be careful." Giggling with his sister he leaned down kissing his sister good night on the cheek, then ran up the stairs to go to bed.
"Good night Al" Everyone said falling asleep themselves.
The common room was still pretty full, it was only 9:00 but the celebration seemed to keep most of the room up, still gaping at lily with glee. The common room door finally opened, causing Lily to turn around. Scorpious walked in, his eyes fell straight to Lily, he smiled as he walked over.
"Okay, so is that what Al was saying you know , when he said 'be careful' " Rose whispered, making quotations around 'be careful'
"Yeah, Al is kinda …Well he….he doesn't like the idea of his best friend going out with his sister. It makes him feel akward I think" Lily whispered back before Anyone could hear her. She knew Al was right, she new her uncle felt the same way about her mother dating her father, but Lily couldn't help but be mad at Al's sense of protection, he seemed to date anyone he wanted without Lily stepping on his parade.
"Well of course he'd feel awkward. Though I wouldn't take it personally, when Oliver Smith asked me out a year ago, my brother and father literally threw a fit, appearently my father had not liked him". She began to get up, her voice lowering " But Lily, be careful, and we'll talk tomorrow, All about this. Love you cuz." She walked over to Oliver who was sitting with Harry Longbottom who were playing gobstones with some first years.
Suddenly a wave of butterflies erupted in Lily's stomach as he drew closer, her cheeks began to puff with a light shade of pink, her lips quivering.
"Well hello gorgeous" he whispered into her ear as he walked to her seat.
"I've missed you, how was your studying?" He leaned in a little closer, his breath tickled LiIy's cheek.
"It was …okay I guess, Rose helped us, we were basically at worlds end.." Lily began to laugh, her laughter seemed to stop just as Scorpious kissed her, a strong kiss it was, better then before. Students around the room began to whoo and hoot, supporting the love for the two, which caused Rose on the other hand to sink farther into her seat thinking … what is my cousin doing. Any way The rest of the night was a walk in the park, the two talked and talked, snuggled till each other's hearts were sewed together. A kiss or two only took place, which gave Lily the hope he didn't just want a good shag, and they wouldn't well..snog each other all the time…she wanted a boyfriend she could trust, love, and also at some time in life, shag. Finally Lily had the thought of her bed, the warm sheets soothing her cold body, the two squirmed to get up, the bones in her body began to ache as she stretched.
"Well, good night Lils." he kissed her softly on the cheek, her body once again flowed with Butterflies.
"Good night Scor, see you tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow" he smiled, walking towards the boys dorm.
Lily quickly grabbed her bag her sweater and ran up the stairs and down the hall. The dorm to her surprise was up, and ready to hear about her talk about her bye the fire 'date' with Scor. Though Lily wasn't hesistant to talk about Scorpious, it made her happy, and happy is what she wanted to be, weather anyone liked it or not.
Lily had told the girls of her encounter earlier with her boyfriend of week, the smiled and giggles that came out of the girls mouths lightened her up even more, this year couldn't have been better she thought as she jumped into her bed.
