-So.- someone said when Lily enter her common room
-Potter! What are you doing here?-asked Lily looking at James sat in a sofa near the fire–You scared me.-
-Sorry. Sirius, Remus and Peter are in the infirmary but they sent me here because I´m a Head Boy and shouldn't get in more trouble, is also part of my punishment.-
-Oh.- said Lily walking toward the kitchen –And can you walk or do you have to sleep there.-
-Here. Fortunately Quidditch doesn´t start till next month.-
-Good.- replied Lily sitting down with cereal and a book in an armchair in front of the fire near the bookshelf and a lamp to read, her favourite spot. That´s why James asked to move his sofa near it.
-Why aren´t you eating downstairs?-
-Wanted to read.-
A long silence.
-What are you eating?- asked James
Lily closed her book loudly and turned to James. –Cereal.-
James didn´t expectede to see her so fully and couldn´t help staring some seconds.
-What! Do I have monkeys in my face?- asked Lily angrily
-What!- asked James surprised
-Never mind.- said Lily exasperated
James looked at her eating cereal and smiled. –Well maybe you don´t have them in your face because you put them in our assess.-
-No, those were inside you waiting to burst out, I just help them.-
-So you don´t deny it.-
-Why should I?-
-It can be a tramp.-
-It isn´t.-
-How are you sure?-
-Believe me I know I´m right. Right?-she responded while returning her face to see him and flashing him a bright smile.
–Right.- said he dumbfounded
-Cool.- said Lily munching her cereal and opening her book again.
James was impressed she was actually speaking to him, he saw her while she read some chapters and till she finished her bowl. Finally she stood up again and went to the kitchen for more cereal. James turned his head painfully to see her.
-Can I have some?-
-Cereal?-
-Yes.-
-Get your own.-
-I can´t stand up.-
-Use your wand.-
-McGonagall have them and won´t returned them till we reassume classes.-
-Too bad for you.-
-Why don´t you use your wand?-
-Dunno. Is better this way.- James smile he love her saying dunno he tried to copy it since his first year but couldn't reach the manner she said it so fluently and unworried.
-Please.-
-Nop.-
-What if I pay you.-
-Mmmm. Interesting.-
-How much?-
-I don´t want money I´m not a restaurant.-
-Ok. Fine what do you want?-
-Information.-
-What kind of info?- asked James really surprised in an alarmed voice
-Please Potter is a kid´s game you'll have your cereal if you answer me five questions.-
-No.-
-Ok.-
She started humming a song and James watch her and dazed a little.
-One question.-
-Three yes-no questions.-
-You're good.- said James impressed
-Ready.-said Lily showing him a plate with cereal.
-So you knew I'll accept.- asked him trying to reach it
-Wait.- said Lily taking away the plate –First swear it for the thing you swear immunity to your friends.-
-How do you knew.-
-Have a feeling. Do it.- she demanded staring at him in a Isaish form
-I Prongs swear it for Marauderoom.- accepted James not even realizing what he was doing distracted by her eyes
-Here.- said she handing him the cereal
He tasted it.-It´s good. Do you actually cut the fruit without magic?-
-Yes, the way my grands do it.-
James smiled, definitely this was worth it, he got the chance to know Lily a little more.
-So, are you an animagus stag?-
Well maybe she was smarter. –Yes I am.- he said a little worried
She turned and started to eat cereal.
-Aren´t you gonna ask something else?-
-No, you have confirmed my suspicious why should I waste my questions now. You have swear it anyway and will wait. I would have ask for Peter or Sirius, but Sirius is too obvious and WORMTAIL helped figured it out; and I kind of feel that´s their secrets not yours, so I respect it.-
James gaped at her with gigantic surprised eyes. –How do you know?-
-Not my turn to answer, but don´t worry your secret is safe with me.- said she smiling she waved her wand and put her dishes in the sink, wash them, and put them away. She stood up and went to the bookshelf to look for some books to take to her dorm.
-Wait, that´s all?- asked James sure Lily was starting to fall for him for his good looks and his incredible personality and was trying to make it interesting
-Yes. Good night.-said she with a bunch of books in her arms
-Give me a good night kiss.-
-No! Gross.-
-Come on you know you want it.-
-Moron.- said she as she passed in front of him
James took her by the waist and pulled her toward him making her fall with all her books.
-See you desire it.- said James laughing
-Get off me!-
But James's strong Quidditch arms hold her very tight.
-Let me go you pig!-
James approach his lips to her face but he got distracted by her scent for a few seconds, but that was enough for Lily who took her wand and transfigured his arms to pig arms, which let her go she got free and with and amazing curse she hit James leaving him in the floor with jelly legs too to enable him to get up.
-You are such a moron self conceited stupid pig! Get the idea I don´t like you. Arrogant, egoist, cruel, you disgust me! I was just trying to find out a way to live through a whole year with you but you are just a stupid pig! - she shouted while she stormed to her room from where she summoned her books and closed the door leaving James on the floor to spend the night.-
Yep. Still desperate. Please just make me notice that i don't suck that hard and review!
