PREVIOUSLY.....
Lily sat bolt upright tin bed the surroundings of James' room registering in her head as she looked down and saw him laying next to her, shirtless and utterly gorgeous. She wasn't sure what had woken her up but not really worrying she lay back down moving herself up against him.
However, her ignorance didn't last long and the next second she realized what had woken her up as Sirius swung open the door and burst into the room, hyperactive and yelling,
"Prongs you fuck head you've missed th-" but stopped abruptly halfway through his yelling having spotted Lily, his face cracking into an expression of pure delight at the sight of her as James roused himself and sat up.
"Lilykins!" said Black almost squealing it at her, "well aren't you just a little delight to wake up to in the mornings!"
"Fuck off Black," she said not bothering to sit up and instead yanking the covers up and putting a pillow on top of her head.
"Padfoot get out," said James absentmindedly bringing a hand to his hair and sitting up.
"Nahh," he said grinning at the both of them, not that Lily could see, "I think I'll stay here, it looks like more fun..."
"Padfoot seriously, get the fuck out," said James still drowsy, Lily unable to see him glance down at her as she continued to hide herself underneath the covers.
"fine, fine," replied Sirius rolling his eyes mockingly, "I can tell when I'm not wanted" he continued pulling himself up from the armchair like an aged pensioner, "even if it is a rare occasion," he added as an afterthought.
"Just remember we have some brewing to do today my friend," Sirius reminded James as he moved towards the door.
"It was lovely to see you Lily" he yelled at her, chuckling to himself as he closed the door behind him.
Lily waited until she was certain she'd heard the click of the door closing opposite them before extracting her head from the twisted covers and sheets and looking at James, "what exactly are you brewing?" she asked quizzically raising her eyebrows ever so slightly at him
"Ah it's nothing," said James kissing her hair gently.
"So it's nothing to do with you arriving back here last night looking like you'd been mauled then?," she replied trying to maintain her integrity and persistent scrutiny while he moved down to kiss her shoulders.
"Don't worry about it, it's just some stupid plan Sirius has hatched," he mumbled into her neck.
"I don't trust you" she said wearingly trying to hold back a grin as he transitioned downwards kissing the skin above her breast.
"not many people do," he replied moving away from her and flashing his teeth.
"whatever then, you can all continue to be idiots" she said swinging her legs out from underneath the covers and allowing them to land on the carpet below, "as long it doesn't involve me
"I don't prank girls that I plan on dating" replied James shaking his head at her ignorance and although he could only see her back, he could tell that she was smiling.
Lily felt her stomach drop a little at the term 'dating', a unprecedented feeling of excitement rushing over her, but she didn't want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her grinning and letting him be smug so she just continued to make her way towards the bathroom.
Suddenly she paused though, spinning around she quickly made her way back to the bed climbing up on all fours she straddled him, leaning in and kissing him slowly before abruptly pulling away and getting down again,
"Who said anything about dating?" she laughed making her way into the bathroom
Annabelle and Daisy glanced at each other skeptically, "if you're lying to us" she said looking at Sirius and pausing, "we will kill you".
"ladies, ladies" replied Sirius grinning, "I'm not and I think I can say with satisfaction that I am truly a genius".
"Oh please" said Daisy rolling her eyes, "you're not actually going to try and take credit for two people, who were quite clearly into each other anyway getting together are you?"
"Yeah" piped up Annabelle, "you can't take credit, I was half of that genius!"
Daisy just shook her head at the idiocy hoping desperately that someone would come along to relieve her of the misery that was dealing with Sirius and Annabelle, their situation blissfully ironic. It was plain to nearly everybody else that despite their so called 'plans' and 'scheming' to get James and Lily together, that really the two of them just enjoyed spending time together, even Peter the world's dumbest wizard could see it.
Which needless to say, made the situation obvious.
"Whatever, you're so full of shit Black," said Annabelle shrugging and turning to look at Daisy who was nodding her head in agreement.
"Lily would have told us about it anyway, I'm not being roped into one of your ridiculous stories again" she continued,
"Whatever, think what you want ladies," said Sirius shrugging and refusing to remove the smug grin across his face.
"Hi," said Lily sitting herself down next to Sirius.
"well speak of the devil," said Annabelle looking at Lily,
"my bestie!," squealed Sirius rapping Lily up in a bear hug and squeezing her so tight she thought he just might crush her
It seemed an eternity before Sirius would untangle himself and release her and by that point Remus had appeared and was looking at the two of them intrigued.
"James would not be impressed with so much touching Padfoot" he said lifting a silver jug to pour out some pumpkin juice and unfolding a copy of Daily Prophet.
"Well Moony how wrong you are," said Sirius proudly, "because it just so happens that there will be no jealousy since they're now officially together"
"Excuse me Sir-" Lily tried to cut in but was abruptly interrupted as Sirius in turned raised his voice to share his story with everyone within a two mile radius.
"The reason I know this you ask Moony" continued Sirius further clamping a hand around Lily's mouth so that she couldn't protest, "Is because, being the caring and nuturing friend that I am," his voice having risen to a shout by this point, "I went to wake up Prongs this morning that's right everybody.." by this point his voice was booming off the walls of the Great Hall,
"to find none other than a certain Lily Ev-"
However much to Sirius' dismay he was cut short as a bolt of yellow collided with his stomach and he found himself upside down, hovering in the air as the tables around erupted with unrestrained laughter.
"It's not nice to air other people's dirty laundry, tut, tut" mocked James finally having reached where they were, dropping Sirius into a pile on the floor before patting him on the top of the head like a child and squeezing in next to Lily.
"Hey" said Peter tentatively always seeming bewildered, even around his own friends, also finding a seat next to Remus.
"I don't know why he bothers," said Annabelle peering underneath the table to look at Sirius on the floor, "nobody believes his stupid lies anyway"
Lily avoided eye contact with her friends staring down at the plate in front of her, she didn't think now was the best time to inform them that Sirius was actually telling the truth.
"Anything new?" asked James as Remus and Daisy both bent over the Prophet turned to look at them, both having ignored the mayhem and disturbances of their friends.
"A couple more attacks just outside of London," replied Remus, "It seems th-"
But he was cut short by Sirius who seemed to have regained consciousness.
"You idiot Prongs," said Sirius rubbing his head and pushing his way in between Lily and James, much to James' dismay.
"No I do believe that title belongs to you Black" cut in Annabelle shaking her head and turning to stare at the paper with Remus and Daisy.
"You were interrupting a beautiful and rather intriguing conversation I was having with my bestie" he said finally having seated himself between the two of them, simultaneously flinging an arm around Lily's shoulder and searching for the bacon.
"Black, I'm not your bestie," replied Lily shaking his arm off her shoulder.
"Well you do love me" he shot back at her, "and I think it's rude when other people inturrupt our chats"
"Trying to spread ridiculous and fictional stories at the breakfast table does not count as a 'chat' Black" mumbled Daisy.
"Don't pretend you don't love me" he shot back a her.
"wrong again Sirius," grinned Frank seating himself down next to Peter, "only you seem to love you"
"and half the female population at Hogwarts," he grinned at him,
"ok" Alice inturruted pulling herself up from the seat, "the egos at this table have become far too overwhelming, do you guys want to come to Charms?" she said gesturing towards everyone else at the table and ignoring James and Sirius.
"yes," replied both Annabelle and Lily simultaneously picking up their bags,
"we really need to find a Sirius-free place to spend our mornings," muttered Annabelle as the wandered away,
"you know you love me!" shouted Sirius at their retreating figures.
"seriously, they do" he repeated turning to James
"Sure they do Padfoot…"
