This was the best moment of James Potter's life, so far.
He didn't really want revenge of Sirius. Actually, he would get Sirius a dozen boxes of Honeydukes chocolate. Even though it was a little embarissing.
Imagine having your hand stuck around someone's waist and their's stuck around your neck. Add hundreds of rumor-spreading students. Throw in three staircases. Plus tripping a dozen times and actually falling over once (James landed on the bottom, Lily was redfaced). And the cherry on top is that James even asked her out a few times.
Hey, old habbits die hard.
She mearly threw him a dirty look.
Finally, they reached the Headmaster's Office on the first floor (the library is on the fourth). Lily and James had mastered walking without letting go of each other. It was sort of like a dance his mother taught him when he was little. James frowned at that thought. Dorea, his mother, was deathly ill. All the healers in St. Mungo's simply couldn't figure out what was wrong with her.
"What's wrong?" Lily asked, looking a bit concerned.
"Hm? Oh, nothing. My mum is feeling er- she's ill."
"Oh," Lily said, sombering up. "Er- send her my best wishes." She said, catching him off guard. He was trying to read her expression when Remus interrupted him.
"What's the password? I haven't been in this month."
"Peppermint Toad." James said without hessitation, making Moony chuckle.
The gargoyles jumped out of the way, hearing James, "Look's like you've got yourself in a sticky situation." It said, chortling.
"Shut it, you." James said, mock-angry.
They went up yet another staircase before the doors in front of them opened.
