Lily and James were about to take their seats when Sirius had said something.
"What'd you say Sirius?" James asked.
"Um…your face…" Sirius began, but broke out into laughter, as did everyone else. James went to touch his face, and Lily saw too. He still had Lily's lip gloss smeared all over his face. James blushed furiously and grabbed a napkin, wiping off the lip-gloss.
"Ahh! My little innocent Lily!" Remus cried.
"..You…guys…been…playing…tonsil hockey!!!" Sirius blurted out in between spurts of laughter.
"Eh, probably still didn't get lucky," Peter joked. Right then a large egg landed on Peter's head, the throw of course from Lily. That got the whole Gryfinndor table in an uproar. This was the best birthday Lily's has ever had and she hasn't even gotten her presents yet! Lily had barely eaten anything and was pushing her food around on her plate.
"Something wrong, babe?" James asked, concerned (A/N: Der).
"I can't eat! Too nervous about what people are gonna get me!" Lily said, frustratingly.
"Well try focusing on eating later," James suggested, kissing her lightly on the forehead. Lily continued to fork around her food, until like 2 minutes later everyone walked up to the common room. All the marauders dashed up the boy's dormitory, while Barbara went up the girls, to get their presents for Lily. The only one who wasn't there at the time was Peter, who went to go get a cake from the house elves, and a couple of other things.
Slowly, each one of them came down from the boy's dormitory, and the last one left was Barbara. The portrait had swung open, and there was Peter balancing the cake. Right before it dropped Sirius had grabbed the cake, but poor Peter had fell to the ground (A/N: they liked him before. I feel dirty making it say poor Peter! I am ashamed ;_;). Lily helped up Peter, and said, "Accio Table." The table swung over towards them, and Sirius placed the cake on the table.
"Particimo," James chanted, as the common room filled up with decorations. While James was doing that, Remus had said a few words and a banner of glitter showed 'Happy Birthday Lily!' Lily didn't know what to say. She loved all of them so much, so she just brang them all in a big hug.
"Nice…" Barbara remarked looking about at the decorations. Barbara had a wrapping papered box clasped in her hand, and Lily couldn't wait to open it!
"Cake time!" Sirius yelled, with a devilish look in his eyes.
"But I want to open my presents!" Lily wailed.
"Now, now Lily, we must eat some cake before Sirius eats it all!" Barbara said.
"But presents!" Lily complained. James took her hand, and dragged her over to the cake.
"Falmoose!" Barbara said, as the 16 candles lit up. They all sang that embarrassing song that Lily personally wish no one had ever came up with (A/N: can you tell I feel the same way?! Ugh Happy birthday to Lily…blah blah blah). As they were done, the cake was handed out and Sirius had created a new record on how fast you could eat a piece of cake. It was quite disgusting, as Lily saw it. Lily suddenly jumped in the middle of the room and looked from one of them to the others.
"Presents!" she yelled.
"Take a chill pill, Lil" Sirius said.
"Ah that rhymed!" Barbara exclaimed. Sirius gave her a deathly stare and then handed Lily his present. It was the weirdest wrapped present she had ever seen. There was tape everywhere, and she couldn't tell where the wrapping began.
"Well, uh, you see….Barbara told us how you are used to birthday presents being! Usually we just give them to the people!" Sirius explained.
"It's…uh…the most lovely wrapping I've ever seen…." Lily said. Sirius beamed at her and Lily just started tearing. It was a…well….she didn't quite know what it was. Lily looked up at Sirius and gave a questionable look.
"Oh! It's a Flabber Blaster! The best thing on earth!" Sirius said, beaming at Lily. Barbara nudged Sirius again, seeing Lily's face was completely clueless.
"Oh! Sorry again. It's kind of like a muggle 8 ball, but not," Sirius explained.
"It looks really different than an eight ball," Lily observed. There were little gadgets sticking out coming out of a square metal box. On the side there was a button, and a speaker.
"But see, this tells the truth, rather than your silly old eight balls. Try it!" Sirius said. Lily looked blankly at it pushed the red button.
"What did James get me?" Lily asked, knowing what he had gotten her. James was oblivious to what was going on, and was clearly thinking about something else. Suddenly one of the arms pulled out a message that said: A LOCKET AND SOLID GOLD BRACELET. Lily stared at it for a minute, and looked up at James.
"Well see, it's wrong because James…." Lily began, but looked at another present in James hand. James hadn't noticed yet, still lost in thought. Suddenly he looked up at Lily and saw the thing in Lily's hand. Knowing what Sirius had given her, he turned a bright shade of red.
"I wanted it to be a surprise…." He began.
"I'm sorry! I just said that because you had already given me a present!" Lily said.
"Aw it's alright hun. Here you go," James mumbled, handing her the small box. Inside was a solid gold bracelet of lilies. Lily stared at it for a moment, and James walked over and put it on her wrist.
"I…I…love it" Lily cried, knocking James down and planting a kiss on him. Lily was busily giving James a long kiss, when she heard an *Ahem*. James and Lily broke their kiss, and saw all of their friends staring at them and tapping their foot.
"Sorry!" Lily said.
"Yeah, Uh huh. Sure ya are," Remus remarked. Lily sent him a small jab in the stomach, and took the present from him. Lily continued to open everyone's presents and got a new football from Remus, an automatic gum maker from Barbara, and a bunch of candy from Peter. Lily loved each and every one of her presents just as much as the others. Yet she knew one of the best was yet to come, from her parents.
Lunch finally came (During the holiday break, owls come in at lunch instead of morning), and in came Yolanda, her owl, and she dropped a large package. Lily quickly opened it to find a large makeup kit from her mom (She was always trying to get her to be more girly) and a small screen from her father. Lily looked at the note of what the thing her father got her. It was a palm pilot (A/N: Yeah I know this is from this time but I don't care! LoL! I always wanted one!) that helped her keep track of everything. All the others were amazed, seeing it was a muggle tool. Every time she had it out that day, one of her friends would watch in amazement as she punched in emails to her parents, or put stuff in her schedule. Lily had yet to ask her parents, she wanted to ask just as she saw them to go home. She wanted it to be drastic. She loved making things more daring than they should be. It was a bad trait of hers.
It was nearing the night, and the next day was when everyone came back from Christmas holiday. Lily slipped into her pajamas, looking at her new bracelet and necklace. She fell asleep thinking about the same thing she had sine she had been told about it. About how it would be when her and James were in the house together and what they would do (A/N: Not sick stuff! Sickos! Lol!).

Meanwhile James was wondering to find himself at Dumbledore's entrance. Seeing that he knew the password he muttered it (Pink Rubber Duckies). He walked slowly up the stairs and opened the big oak doors. He peaked slowly in the door and saw Dumbledore sitting in his chair, elbows on the desk with clasped hands. Dumbledore's eyes were twinkling beneath his spectacle glasses, and motioned for James to sit in the chair near his desk. James slowly moved towards the chair and plopped down.
"Yes I know why you're here James," Dumbledore said quietly.
"H-" James began.
"Never question me James," Dumbledore said sternly.
"Yes sir," James replied.
"Now I know you have been wondering what was the cause of your families dispute."
"It's been driving me crazy! I mean dispute that would cause a large family to split apart?"
"Yes I know. I would wonder myself. Now I will tell you. It was a personal affair with your great great grandfathers. They both had liked this girl named Mindy Malaor. Yes, it involved a girl. Your great freat grandfather, being more dashing than your other great great grandfather, had gotten Mindy. That's where it started. I know it seems silly, but that's how it goes. I heard the story from your dad, and he said I could tell you when I felt it appropriate. I was quite surprised he wanted me to tell you, and not him himself, but he has insisted. That's all there is to the story of your two families, so I suggest you get to sleep before I have to assign you a detention for being out late," Dumbledore said, with a small smile.
"Thank you, Dumbledore," James said, still in shock.
"Your very welcome James, now be off." James slowly walked out of the large oak doors, and went off to the Gryffindor tower.
A/N: You asked for it! Lol! Well you did! You asked what the dispute is, so there it is! Now I know this might not be the most exciting chapter, but they are to come! I promise, maybe even in the next chapter! So keep reading and PLEASE review! You reviewers are great! Toodlez! Wow is this chapter longer than usual! Lol!
Steph: I updatededed! ^_^
Felicity Aulia Evans: I'm glad you've loved ALL my chapters! Quite taken aback that you liked them all! ^_^
