A/N: Alright, guys. First off, thanks for reading up to this point! Hope you have liked it. This chapter is going to be in Lily's POV. I think I'm going to bounce between the two POV's (James' and Lily's). I like writing in both of their points of view. Sorry that it has taken me so long to update! A lot of things have been happening; school, friends, getting my heart broken :(. Its all just been really busy. Also, If you haven't noticed, I write back to everyone who reviews. I'd LOVE it if you reviewed. Really, I would. Even one word would make me so happy. So happy that I may shit rainbows. And with 's day coming up, you may find some gold at the end of those rainbows. So really if you review, you may find millions of dollars worth of gold. And who doesn't want that?


Paper Airplanes

"Fine, just know that your secret boyfriend will be secretly waiting for you in the Great Hall." James said smirking as he walked backwards in the direction of the Great Hall. I walked away from him towards the Library, until I reached the end of the corridor. I looked back at James and smiled. Then it hit me- I just agreed to go on a date with James Bigheaded Potter. What the hell is wrong with me?

I could I be so stupid? He's going to make me crazy with his hand holding and making me swoon. Oh yes, lots of swooning will be involved here. So much swooning, so much that those fan girls of Sirius will be jealous of my swooning capabilities. I'll swoon so much that I won't be able to focus on my N.E.W.T.S, and I will fail them. Then no one will give me a job. I'll be forced to live on the streets. Its perfectly rational, date James- end up living on street. This "date" needs to stop, right this moment.

I turned back around, maybe I could catch the idiot and stop this "date" of ours, but instead of running into James, I ran into Remus. Literally.

"Lily! What are you doing over here? Its rather early to go to the Library."

"Library?" I said. What the bloody hell was he talking about?

"Yeah, the library? That room we're standing in the doorway of…Its full of books?" Remus said, he started to get a look on his face that looked as if he was seriously considering taking me down to visit Madame Pomfrey.

"Oh right… The Library," I said, turning around. Turns out I was in the doorway of the Library, must have walked here without realizing where I was going. "I was going to do my Charms essay. Why are you here so early? Shouldn't you be down in the Great Hall?"

Remus started shifting from one foot to the next, "Just needed to return a book."

"Mhmm. Sure. But now you're going down to the Great Hall, right?" I lifted an eyebrow.

"Right. Care to join me? That Charms essay isn't due for a week, you can do it later." Replied Remus.

"Course, lets go." I gestured in front of me. As we walked down the hall I kept one eye on Remus. I know for a fact that he doesn't check books out of the Library. He can never get them back on time, because Sirius always hides them.

"Was it a good book, Remus?"

"Book, Lily?"

"Yes, book. The one you just returned?" I said.

Remus looked at me for a second, hesitated then said, "Oh, yes. Very uh… informing."

"Informing?" I stopped walking. "Are you planning a prank?" I asked when Remus was a few steps in front of me.

He slowly turned around, "Prank? I don't know what you mean by 'prank'."

I crossed my arms, he knew exactly what I meant. If he was keeping this prank a secret then the secret has to be about me. What if that's why James asked me out? Its all one big prank. We will be on the date and then I will be covered in slime. I'd be so mortified that I will have to run away, disguise myself as a muggle hobo, and live on the street. It all –

"Lily?"

I looked up at Remus, "Hmm?"

"We aren't doing anything too bad, you can stop gripping your wand like that." He reached down to remove my hands from my wand, but I awkwardly shoved my wand in my robe pocket before he could take it.

"So… a prank?"

"Its going to be our last one. Don't fret, nothing bad will happen. After you," He said gesturing into the Great Hall.

I walked into the Great Hall, Remus following me. I intended to bombard Remus with questions, but I caught sight of James stuffing his mouth with eggs. I starred in wonderment, how could anyone fit so much into one mouth? Remus and I began to make our way to the Gryffindor table. James glanced over at us. Remus waved at James as he went to the other side of the table next to Sirius. I could either follow Remus and sit across from James, or sit right next to James. Both could be suspicious.

I was starting to follow Remus when James caught my eye, grinned, and winked. A bit of egg fell out of his mouth when he did. Marveling at the lovely chance to mock him, I corrected my path and sat next to James.

"You've got some egg on your shirt"

He blushed violently, "Oh, I do. Do you like it?"

"Yes, Prongs. Makes you rather shag-able." Sirius injected, waggling his eyebrows.

"You think?" Asked James.

"Irresistible" Said Remus, grinning.

"Surprised Lily-Flower hasn't jumped you yet." Sirius said suggestively. I gaped open-mouthed at the three of them.

James laughed, "She's just waiting till we are alone. Right, Lily?" James said as nudged me in my side with his elbow.

"No," I nudged back, "You're not my type."

James nudged harder back. "Not your type! What? You don't like ruggedly handsome men?"

"I do, but you're not one of them." I nudged him back multiple times.

"Oh yeah?" He nudged me back multiple times.

"Yeah" Our innocent pokes then progressed into a full on war. Each time he nudged me, I'd nudge back harder, our nudges became a rapid relay and neither side was backing down.

"Bullocks. Prongs, Lily-poo stop flirting. It's time to go. I can't be late to Binns again this week. I swear he's going to haunt me next time I'm late." Said Sirius as he stood up and collected his book bag.

Remus followed Sirius. "Padfoot, he's not going to haunt you."

"He's a ghost! Isn't he?"

I looked at James. We couldn't get caught before our first date had even occurred.

"I'll see you in class, Lils" James said.

I gave a half-hearted wave in response and grabbed a piece of toast. I hadn't even eaten yet I was too busy nudging James. We needed to be more covert, getting caught is not an option. I checked my watch. Class started in 5 minutes. I grabbed another piece of toast, and rushed off towards the History of Magic room.

The History of Magic room was, as always, very dusty. A green tinted light covered the desks in the room. Everything had a ghostly` feel about it, which wasn't surprising considering Professor Binns is the only professor at Hogwarts who is a ghost. Rumor had it that twenty or so years ago, Binns had died when he had fallen asleep in the Teachers' common room. The next morning, he woke up as a ghost and kept on teaching. I've always wondered if he knew that he had died. You suppose that dying is something you would notice, but Professor Binns has never been that observant. It usually takes him a few minutes at the beginning of class to realize that it was indeed time for class to begin - which he had yet to notice when I walked through the door.

I quickly spotted my friends who were sitting at a desk made for four in the back of the room. They were exactly across from where the Marauders were sitting together. Realizing that I was awkwardly standing the doorway, I quickly ventured over to where my friends were and sat in the seat they had left vacant for me next to Marlene.

"Where have you been?" asked Marlene turning her head to face me.

I answered back, "Great Hall. I was eating."

Marlene raised one eyebrow, "You left before we did though, and we didn't see you."

"I stopped at the Library before I went down to the Great Hall. Needed to get some work done on my Charms essay."

"Oh, did you get much done?"

"I definitely got some things done." I replied back thinking of James and I's upcoming date. Marlene looked at me strangely. She knew that I wasn't telling her everything, and I hated not telling her, but my date needed to be a secret.

Marlene opened her mouth to respond, but was cut off by Professor Binns starting class.

"We'll be continuing the dwarf wars today. In 1503, Arnold the Annoying met with Wilbur the Waggish to discuss the treaty of the eleventh dwarf war. No treaty was made because Wilbur the Waggish beheaded Arnold the Annoying the first few minutes. If you look in your book, Wilbur the Waggish's reasoning was that Arnold the Annoying was annoying him."

I rapidly scribbled down what Professor Binns was droning on about. I looked over at my friends. Only Dorcas was copying down the lecture. Marlene had already fallen asleep and was drooling a little on to the desk. Emmeline was braiding her long, blonde hair. I could tell she was concentrating because she had stuck out her tongue slightly.

I returned to my notes, but was interrupted by a bewitched paper airplane that collided with my temple. I looked over in the direction that the plane came from. James raised up his hand and mouthed "Sorry". He then gestured to unfold the plane. Inside he had scrawled a note.

"I'll pick you up at 7 on Thursday in the common room."

I wrote back, "For what?", crinkled the paper into a ball and threw it back at James. A few seconds later I recieved another paper airplane.

"For our date. Don't say you already forgot."

"I didn't forget."

"Sure. If anyone asks we have a Head's meeting."

"We do have a Head's meeting that day."

"Great! Then you won't be lying!"

I looked over at James. He was running his hand through his already messy raven black hair. He soon noticed that I was looking his way. He pointed at the paper airplane that he wrote his note on, grinned, and gave it two thumbs up. I smiled in reply.


Ok another A/N: First- REVIEW, REVIEW, REVIEW! I hate being the annoying, review author, but reviews make me really happy guys. Second, I'm going to try to get another chapter out really soon, er actually make that soon-ish. I'm going to try. Third, I just want to say thank you to everyone who has helped me with this chapter.
