-1Hi. Remember me? To all my devoted readers, I'm terribly sorry that I sorta just dropped the fanfic. There are a few reasons why I did that. One: My grades were slipping, and my mom yelled at me and took my laptop away. Two: I lost my notebook where everything was written. Oops. And three: I went threw a really difficult time, back in November or when ever I last updated. SO, I'm really sorry about not giving you guys any notice. So, I believe this is where I left off.

The next few days went surprisingly fast. Ever since the Christmas Break had started, Lily found herself spending more and more time with James in the common room. She still hadn't sent a letter to her closest friend, who had gone home for the holiday, telling her that she had gotten together with James. Though, Lily wasn't entirely sure how she would act upon finding this piece of news out. After all, she had been urging Lily to give James a chance for at least a year now. But, that's just how Bella was.

That peculiar morning Lily was sitting on the Heads' common room floor, with and open book on her lap. She hadn't really felt like sitting in her desk, on the couch, or in her room. No, on the floor was just fine for her. But, just as she was reaching a peculiarly good part in her book, a piece of crumpled up paper came down onto her head. "Hey!" she exclaimed, and looked up from the book. Low and behold, there was James. With an open notebook in front of him, and whistling as if he had done nothing wrong. "I know it was you" she said to him in a 'don't-think-that-you-can-fool-me' sort of voice.

"Know what?" he asked, and put an innocent face on. "I didn't do anything."

"Ha. Yeah right. I know you threw a piece of paper at me." she replied with a skepttabul look on her face.

"Paper? What paper? I have no paper."

"Then what's that book of paper right in front of you?" she asked and gestured to the notebook she was referring to.

"What notebook?" he asked, and pushed it to the floor.

"What are you trying to do?"

"What am I trying to do? I'm trying to do nothing."

"Okay." she said sarcastically and went back to reading. Not at all to her surprise, another piece of paper came down on her head. "Is once not enough?" she asked and this time got up. "Do you want something from me?"

"Hmm. Now that you mention it, a kiss wouldn't be so bad" he said and put a smile on. He had planed this from the start, with the first piece of paper and with the second.

"Ohh, I don't think that throwing a piece of paper at me is a good way to get me to kiss you." she said, and walked over to him. She sat down on his lap and whispered something into his ear. "Try being nicer."

She whispered into his hear. A smile rose to the surface of his face. "What would you do if I kissed you right now?" he asked her.

"Hmmm. I don't know. Why don't you try it?"

His smile widened. He bent down and pressed his lips against hers. Both their eyes closed, and Lily rapped her arms around his neck. The perfect kiss. At least, it would have been if at that exact moment the Muggle Studies teacher hadn't walked into the Heads' Common Room and spotted them kissing. "Lily, James!" she said in surprise. They instantly separated. There was nothing worse then getting caught kissing by a teacher. "Explain yourselves" she demanded, and walked over to the couch where Lily was sitting on top of James.

"Well, we, ummm…" Lily stammer, trying to think up a good enough reason to get her off their backs. She looked at James's face, and saw that he had nothing either. Deciding that it was a pretty good idea for her to get off of him, she slid off his lap and sat down on the next seat over.

"Yes Miss. Evans?" Mrs. Dayion said, waiting for her excuse to come out. She waited for it, but it never came. "Well, since you two can't come up with an explanation why you were locked together, I guess I should just get on with what I came in to tell both of you." she told them, saving the embarrassment of telling a teacher a rather bad lie.

They both waited a few seconds for her to tell them why she had come in. When she didn't speak again, James spoke. "Umm. So why did you come in?" he asked.

"Oh, yes. Well, I came here to tell you about how the other 'couples' are doing with the assignment" she told them.

"How's Bella and her partner doing?" Lily asked after the teacher finished her sentence.

"Bella and Zach are doing fine. I actually just came from them. Oh, yeah. Bella says hello and she asks you to see her a letter telling her how you're doing."

Lily nodded and made a mental note to send her friend on Owl. "Is there anything else you wanted to tell us?" she asked.

"Hmmm." she hummed and thought for a few seconds. "Ah, yes. Don't let me catch you two locked together" she smiled and walked from the room.

They both waited a few seconds before letting out a sigh of relief. It was James who spoke first. "I was sure that she was gunna scream" he said and smiled.

"Yeah. She looked so mad. It looked like she was going to bite our heads off." Lily laughed. "I should probably write that letter to Bella." she said and walked over to her desk. She sat down and pulled a roll of parchment out. "Do you think I should tell her about us?"

"Hmmm." he thought for a second. "Nah. I wanna see her face when she finds out."

"Ok." she said and started scribbling down on the parchment. A few minutes of silence passed, nothing but her quill scratching on the paper could be heard. Once the scratching subsided, she looked up at him. "Come with me to the Owlery with me?"

"Hmmm. I don't think so." he replied.

"Oh, come one."

"I'll come if I get a kiss" he said with a small smile.

She hummed for a few seconds, thinking all the while. She fake sighed and spoke. "Alright." she said and walked over to him. She gave him a quick peck on the cheek and pulled on his had to get him to stand up. "Come on!"
