Disclaimer- I don't own own anything!
I just stood there..my mouth opening and closing like a demented goldfish.
Fortunately for Black, I am rather good at controlling my temper or I would've Avada'd his ass off there and then. If that idiotic git posts my diary in the newspaper then EVERYONE in Hogwarts will know about my crush on Remus. Aah, Remus..His eyes, blue with a tinge of green, his hair an amazing shade of-
FOCUS LILY! That's when I slapped myself. I think that's the best way to focus. It kinda 'wakes you up'.
'Did you just slap yourself?', Black asked in disbelief. Oh, right, That git's still here.
'Yep', I said as though it's like, the most normal thing in the world.
Not that I'm normal or anything.
I mean which normal person would have to choose between going out with an insufferable, conceited pig, or having her diary posted in the bloody SCHOOL NEWSPAPER!
Yeah, I know, right?
'Evans, I don't have all day. Are you gonna do what I say or not?', Black asked.
Do what he says. That could mean anything- He might make me run around the corridor in my underwear.
Stupid Black.
'Evans?', he said waving a hand in front of my face.
'Fine.', I sighed. As soon as I said that Black grinned widely, as though Christmas had come early or something. He is so evil, so Sirius-ish. I mean you might as well put a name-tag on him saying-' I AM EVIL, BEWARE'
'So, what exactly am I supposed to do?', I asked in a calm voice- as calm as I could make it, anyway. 'Oh there's a lot you're supposed to do..', he smirked,'Ask him out, in exactly the way I tell you to, that's the first step.'
And guess what I did.
…..
This is it.
The most embarrassing moment of my life, I thought as I stared at myself in the mirror, straightening my bunny ears.
That's right bunny ears. URGH!I wish Black would just evaporate or something.
I sighed as I walked into the common room and that's when I saw Potter who wasdoing his homework.
Funny, I've never seen him do his homework before, guess there's a first for everything.
Dancing around in a bunny costume is one such thing.
I walked straight up to James and shouted- Sonorous! Sirius had thought of everything to make me embarrassed. Everyone was staring at me trying not to laugh. They didn't do a very good job at it. Stupid people.
I did a weird bunny dance- consisting of hopping around as though I really wanted to pee. I sang-
'You're my Honeybunch, Sugarplum
Pumpy-umpy-umpkiiin, You're my Sweetie Pieeeee
You're my Cuppycake, Gumdrop
Snoogums-Boogums, You're the Apple of my Eye
And I love you so and I want you to know
That I'll always be right here
And I love to sing sweet songs to you
Because you are so deeeeeeear!
James Potter, I request thee to go out with me. Do me the honour by coming to Hogsmeade with me'
To say everyone was shocked was an understatement.
And of course, to say everyone was amused was a bigger understatement.
'Snoogums-Boogums..? HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAA!', said some weird Fifth year idiot who looked totally constipated-he was laughing so hard. So was everyone in the WHOLE FREAKIN' GRYFFINDOR HOUSE! Except Potter, he looked as though someone had cast the Freezing Charm on him. 'Are you serious?', he asked finally 'un-freezing' himself. 'No, I'm Sirius, you prat!', Black said as he got up and sat on the couch (He had fallen down, laughing, I guess.) Potter glared at him. Then a smile slowly crept up on his face as he came and hugged me. I awkwardly patted his back.
'Yes of course, Po- James..', I replied dully.
'I KNEW IT! LILY ASKED ME OUT! LILY ASKED ME OUUUT!'
'Um, sure I did.'
'I'M LILY'S SUGERPLUM!'
'Right.'
'PADFOOOT! GUESS WHAT? LILY ASKED ME OUUUUT!'
'Prongs, I know. I saw. Love the bunny costume, by the way.', Black smirked.
I reallyy want to kill him right now.
'You look adorable, Lily!.', James said grinning widely, finally calming down. 'Thanks.', I blushed.
By the way I blushed because Remus was looking at me, he was standing behind Potter and was holding Hogwarts: A History. I used to think I was the only one who liked it. He does too! See, we have soo much in common.
'See you in Hogsmeade, Lily!', Potter said smiling again as he walked out of the Common room probably going for his Transfiguration class or something.
That's when people started clicking pictures of me. 'DON'T YOU DIMWITS HAVE ANYTHING ELSE TO DO?', I yelled as I went back into the girls dorm.
My friends are gonna give me a hard time now. Heck, everyone is gonna give me a hard time.
As I started walking up the stairs toward my common room Black came and whispered in my ear, 'Nice singing, Evans', he winked at me. I decided to ignore him as I continued walking up the stairs as he said, 'Oh, and Evans? This is just the our little secret which means James cannot and will not know. Is that understood?'
I glared at him. I wonder
Lily, what the heck have you gotten yourself into? I thought as I collapsed onto my bed.
Yayyy! Two chapters done!
I really enjoyed writing this one! I hope you liked it. Don't ask me how Sirius found a muggle song because I've got no idea!
I also wanted to thank you all for reviewing my story. You've got no idea how happy that made me. :D
