Chapter 1;
It finished with one thing and started with another;
Lilly Evans and Tiger Rilley were quietly doing their work in the study hall of Hogwarts. 'EVANS' shouted James Potter as he entered the hall. Lilly looked over to Tiger and rolled her eyes and Tiger just shook her head and continued reading her book on DADA (Defence against the dark arts) 'What is it now'? She said under her breath that only Tiger heard. 'Lilly you know what you did'!
Tiger said shocked. 'Well……Shut up, I was having a blonde moment. Lilly exclaimed. 'You're not even blonde so that is not an acceptable excuse! Tiger rolled her eyes and went back to her book before looking at James that was now standing over Lilly. With out even turning around to know he was their Lilly said sarcastically. 'Yes, James dear what is the matter'?
'DID you put a vomiting curse on Sirus'? James demanded through gritted teeth. 'Why yes I did, he was making out with Shannon Handley'. Lilly explained calmly. YOU don't have to go into so much detail about your friends because I KNOW BLOODY WELL WHO THEY ARE, WE HAVE BEEN HERE FOR 7 YEARS ALREADY YOU STUPID GIT! James said now getting extremely annoyed and angry, throws his hands up in the air and then puts his wand hand (his right hand) through his dark brown messy hair. 'Who gives a crap if they were ,its their own bloody lives they can do what ever they want you can't always have it your way all the fucking time, and you had no right in reacting the way you did now if you don't mind giving me the reversal of the spell NOW'. He sneered at her.
Lilly rolling her eyes at James as she said. 'Very well you may have it, on one condition'. 'WHAT IS IT'? James bellowed at her. 'Now now now no need to get all upset all I want is a simple please can I have, that's all'. Lilly says trying hard not to laugh at James frustration making Tiger roll her eyes again at their maturity and said. You Guys need to find a room, I know for a fact Lilly needs a good shag. TIGER RILLEY YOU JUST DIDN'T SAY THAT! Lilly screeched at her. James not paying any attention to Tiger. 'FINE THEN'. James shouted at her and made everyone in the hall jump. Tiger gave out one big snort of laughter and said. Potter do you know what you just agreed to? Furrowing his brow looks up at Tiger and said. Yes I do know what I just agreed to! This made Lilly go red in the face and made Tiger go into another round of fit laughter. Tiger calmed herself down and said. Well what do you have to say for you self Potter? He turned to Lilly and said. 'Can I please have the reversal of the vomiting curse you put on Sirus now please'? This made Lilly and Tiger laugh hysterically. WHATS SO FUNNY? James barked at both of them. Nothing potter! Tiger said and went back to reading her book.
Lilly chuckled to herself for a second or 2 and then eventually said.' Why of course you can, go to the library and ask for The Reversal of Curses book number James is a stupid ignorant egotistic GIT Potter and look it up for your self'. 'I'm sure it will be very helpful in this case of scenario, see you later, coming Tiger. Sure thing Lils. Lilly and Tiger standing up and gathering their books and quills, in the mean time James was now getting very angry and he yelled at Lilly. 'WHAT THE HELL I ASK YOU NICELY AND YOU STILL WON'T GIVE ME THE FUCKING ANTIDOT STOP BEING SUCH AN INMATURE BRAT AND GIVE ME THE BLOODY THING'. Look in the mirror potter you will find out who is the immature one out of us! Lilly spat back at him.
Everyone was staring at James and Lilly, listening to the best of their might even though they didn't really have to now that James was yelling his head off, several teachers overhead the fiasco and were running towards where they were standing. Professor McGonagall was the first teacher to reacher them. 'What on merlins beard is going on here'? She said. James turned to face professor McGonagall and said. 'Professor, he sighed deeply, Lilly has put a vomiting curse on Sirus and I have come here to receive it from her and I ask her nicely to give it to me, but she has refused'!
Professor McGonagall then turned to Lilly and Tiger and said. 'Miss Evans Miss Rilley what in heaven shake is going on and Lilly why did you put a vomiting curse on Sirus Black'? 'Professor, Lilly looked down at her feet pretending to look guilty, I did it because he was kissing Shannon and we all know that, she looked Professor McGonagall straight in the eye and continued, Sirus Black is a player and what I mean by player……..' professor McGonagall cuts in. 'I know what it means by a player Miss Evans! 'Where is Mr Black now James'? 'He is in the boy's toilet on level 3'. James said calmly as it was his favourite teacher he was talking to. Professor McGonagall rushed off to level three to reverse the spell.
By this time James and Lilly had argued all the way from the study hall to the Gryffindor common room and scared innocent bystanders on the way, Tiger had walked off down by the lake to read a bit more. Lilly was fed up, but she wanted to know how far she could push James till he gave up. This should teach Potter, not to mess with Lilly Evans. She thought to her self, she uttered a spell under her breath and raised her wand and pointed it at James, all of a sudden James went slightly 'green' he shook his head in pure horror, he could feel something crawling up the bottom of his throat, he tried to speak but couldn't all he could do was wait until what ever was in his throat to come out of his mouth. Lilly was laughing hysterical she whipped a tear from her eye and said. 'Uncomfortable an't it, you'll never guess what is in there until it comes out'. James looks at her and then looked around the room.
'Some one better get him a bucket or something cos it an't ganna be pretty if you don't. Lilly said trying hard to be serious but failing very badly at it. Everyone was looking at what stood before them, James looking like he was going to throw up any minute now and then Lilly roaring with laughter, they were confused on what they should do either laugh with Lilly or be really sympathetic towards James. James's head was in the bucket that a 3rd year had given him, trying to force himself to be sick, all of a sudden something rather furry but soaked in James spit came out of his mouth, James looked at it with a unpleasant look on his face and said. 'IT'S A BLOODY SPIDER!' 'I JUST HAD A BLOODY SPIDER IN MY MOUTH, I COULD HAVE BEEN BITEN, ARE YOU CRAZY EVANS'. He yelled at her, but all Lilly could do was laugh. She picked up the spider and said trying not to burst out with laughter. 'It's plastic Potter'.
Everyone in the common room roared with laughter. James automatically went red and as everyone laughed his anger grew and grew. Without thinking James grabbed his wand out of his pocket, he pointed it at Lilly with fury in his eyes and his energy that his body was expressing made everyone silent including Lilly. Lilly's eyes became wider as James step closer to her, she stepped back every time he step closer she looked behind her and the wall was only 2 to 3 cm from her, she was indeed cornered. James eyes were filled with hurt, anger burned in them he looked into Lilly's eyes which were now filled with tears, both of them were breathing heavy and that's all that could be heard in the room other than that everyone was dead silent. Just then the portrait door flung open, BANG, and there stood Remus Lupin and Tiger Rilley and she was standing behind him, every head turned to the door, Lilly's and James head as well. 'Whats going on in here'? He said to no one in particular as he noticed the dead silence that he and Tiger had just walked in on.
He looked over to where James and Lilly were standing and rushed over and forced James out of the way and said, and Tiger ran to Lilly's side hugging her and asking if she was alright, if he touched her or hurt her in anyway all Lilly could do was shake her head. Lilly just kept on staring at James a let out one big sob and said under her breath that even Tiger had a bit of trouble hearing it but picked up on it. I have really blown it now haven't I? She signed deeply and then looked at her feet.
'I don't really care what has just happened just now but you two really need to stop acting so bloody immature we are in our 7th year of Hogwarts our final year we are not in 1st year anymore'. James mouth dropped open and was just about to say 'but', Remus looked at James shook his head and said. 'I don't want to hear it James'.
Lilly turned to James with tears streaming down her cheeks and said with a shaky tone in her voice. 'James I'm sorry, I…I didn't mean to , she sighed and then looked back down to her feet'. James was shaking all over with a face that said to everyone that I just can't believe I did that kind of look and said. 'I….., James walked forward and grabbed Lilly's hand gently he was surprised when she didn't pull away and continued in what he was saying, Am soooo sorry Lilly'. Lilly placed her other hand onto James hand and touched it slightly and looking in his eyes this making James all warm inside she then pulled her hands away from James and hugged him. James was shocked, but hugged her back as much as she was hugging him consumed in her fragrance that he loved so much he didn't realise that she slightly pulled away until she gently said. 'Its ok James it was my fault I shouldn't have done what I did, will you please forgive me. James pulled Lilly back into an embrace and said in her ear. 'Its ok Lilly, I'm sorry also. 'It's ok James, with out even knowing what she was doing she also said with a sigh, you have no idea how much I love you!
James pulled away slowly and looked into Lilly's beautiful emerald eyes and said. Lilly what did you just say? James was fully aware of what she had said but wanted to hear her say it again. Lilly realised what she had said and went very red in the face and said. Umm, na-nothing James just umm was talking to myself that's all. Omg did I say that aloud? Lilly thought to herself and kicking herself mentally.
James smiled down at Lilly and winked at her, back to his normal playfulness and said with a bit of a mysterious glint in his eyes. 'Very well Lilly by the way thanks for the spell; I might use it on Malfoy later on, heard he is terrified of spiders'. He then turned to Remus and said. 'Let's go play some wizard chess, Mate'. They walked over to a spare table and started to play chess. Typical! Lilly thought to herself.
Lilly looked blankly into nothingness and then about five minutes and then Tiger pulled her into a chair and started doing their homework which was set from early that day. Tiger excused her self and walked over to where James and Remus where sitting and said to James.
'You know, she likes you a lot could even say love, she talks about you no stop ya know! 'What was that Rilley? James said looking confused at Tiger. 'Call me Tiger, and you heard me she loves you James and I want to know if you feel the same because if you don't then why do you always ask her out is it for torment? NO! James yelled at Tiger. Keep you voice down Potter! Tiger sneered at him. So you love her? Yes I love her Tiger, I wouldn't have been asking her to be my girlfriend for 6 years otherwise and oh call me James. Well you should go and ask her out again I just had a talk with Lilly and she said that she loved you so much that she is willing to give you a go, well get a move on! James stood up and walked over to Lilly and took a seat right next to. She smiled at him and then went back to reading her book. Only if he knew how much I liked him. She thought to herself.
'Umm Lilly what are you doing this hogsmeade weekend meaning tomorrow?' James said boldly not actually looking at her. Lilly looked up at him. 'Ahh, umm nothing yet why'? 'Are you asking me out on a date'? Lilly joked. At this James went all red and was blushing and replied. 'Umm yea well I am, well will you'? Lilly went bright red and said. 'What, are you serious?' OH MY GOD did James Potter just ask me out for real? This must be a dream. She thought. 'Yea I am serious well will you come with me? Lilly went a brighter red and nodded. 'Where would you like to meet'? 'Oh what about out near Hagrid's hut at around 12 noon tomorrow'. James said. 'Great I will be there'. Lilly said and looked down to her feet. Lilly bit her lip and then said to James. 'Well I'm off to bed then, goodnight I will talk to you tomorrow'. 'Goodnight'. James replied cheerfully. YES SHE AGREED! James thought to himself. He walked back over to Tiger and Remus who were talking quietly with each other. Ah James how did it………! Before Tiger could even finish James had kissed her on the cheek and said. Thank you so much. Will you kind gentlemen please excuse me I have to go give Lilly a sleeping drought before she keeps all the girls up all night, good night? She bent down and kissed Remus on the cheek. Night Remus! Night Miss Rilley. With that Tiger got u and went up the girl's dorm. Umm Mooney, are you and Tiger going out? James looked puzzled. Remus went slightly red in the face and then nodded. With that James patted Remus on the back and said. 'Well down mate she is a great catch.
Meanwhile…………
Lilly just entered the 7th year girl's dorm. She saw Shannon sitting on the end of her bed and started yelling in excitement. 'OH MY GOD GUESS WHAT JUST HAPPEN YOU WILL NEVER GUESS'. Shannon looked up at Lilly and said. 'I don't know tell me already come on spit it out'. 'JAMES POTTER JUST ASKED ME OUT AHH AND I SAID YES'. Lilly said jumping up and down. 'ARE YOU SERIOUS'. Shannon said with excitement. Lilly nodded with the biggest smile on her face. 'Oh, Lilly I am so happy for you'. 'Thanks'. Lilly said. Lilly looked over to the door as Tiger just entered it was as if Lilly was a cat and sprang on her prey, she jumped on top of Tiger and said making them fall to the floor.
Thank you so much! 'Can you get off of me, Shannon help! Tiger mocked shreeched. Shannon walked over to where Lilly and Tiger were laying on the ground and pulled Lilly off of Tiger.
'Thanks Shannon'. Tiger said in relief. Tiger stood up and walked over to her bed room desk draw and pulled a single vile out of it and walked back over to Lilly and said. Take this! Okay. Lilly grabbed the vile off of Tiger and downed it in one go and passed out cold onto the floor. 'What did you just give her? Shannon asks Tiger.
'
Help me pick her up and put her into bed, it was a sleeping drought.' '
You're a genius Tiger. Shannon complimented. Thanks! With that they picked Lilly up and put her into her bed. 'I'm going for a shower, night'. Tiger said to Shannon as Shannon was crawling into bed. 'Night'. Shannon said to Tiger. It was about 11:30pm when Tiger finally went to bed and fell asleep within 10 minutes with a smile on her face thinking about a certain sandy blonde haired boy (a.k.a Remus).
Meanwhile back in the 7th year boy's dorm…………
It was around 1:00am when James headed off for bed, he was so happy what had happened only a while ago with Lilly he had totally forgotten about the plastic spider incident. He could not wait until tomorrow, for he was so into thought about her that when he awoke the next morning he couldn't even remember falling asleep.
