Chapter 11: The Heads' Dormitory
Lily had been very happy for them that the four girls had all made the team, and she seemed to be very occupied with noticing that James had let them. Lily always thought of James as the person who wanted boys to rule, but maybe she had been mistaken? Maybe she had thought that because he hung out with Sirius, and even he had been tamed.
Julie really had put a stopper to his flirtatious methods. Was it possible that James was an acceptable guy? Lily shook her head. No. There was no way. But to the girl's dismay, the dormitory of the Head Girl and Boy was done decorated and Lily had already packed her things and gotten ready to claim the best room.
"Are you guys moving into the Head's dormitory tonight?" Vilde asked curiously, as if reading Lily's mind.
"Yes, we are," Lily said coolly.
James looked down on his hands, trying to ignore what the girl had just said. Vilde and Julie exchanged a look and sighed. Why they couldn't just understand that they loved each other was beyond the two of them. Erynne grinned. Even she had already noticed that there was some darling tension between them, and she hadn't been there for more than a week. Not to mention she hadn't read about their past and future. How the two of them were going to get together through this year was something Vilde and Julie couldn't see. Well, Julie was all for miracles, so she could still see it.
"Well, it's nice to be on a team," Izzy said, leaning back in the big red chair in the common room.
"Right, you weren't on the team last year! I completely forgot!" James said happily.
"Well, It's nice with new recruits," Sirius said, "Even if it is a girl."
"Hey! I can hear you!" Julie said sourly from where she was sitting in his lap, her head leaning against his chest.
"What? I didn't say nothing!" Sirius said innocently.
"That means you did say something," Julie muttered, her eyes still closed.
"I know," Sirius said 'smartly'.
Vilde sighed and leaned back on Remus' legs from where she was sitting in front of the fire on the floor. Remus smiled and played a bit with her long hair.
Erynne grinned. "But it will be fun living together, won't it?" she asked James and Lily.
James smiled slightly, but didn't say anything. Lily did exactly the same, except that instead of smiling, she frowned.
"Oh, come on, Lils, I surely wouldn't mind sharing a place with James," Erynne grinned wickedly.
"No offence, Lily, but I have to agree with her there," Diana said, grinning just like Erynne.
Lily sighed. "Well, I don't. And it is no offence. Why would it be any offence?" she asked, playing ignorant, even though Julie could hear the sharp tone in her voice, and Vilde could see the strain to not let her true emotions show.
"Charmy, we know you're gonna like it," Vilde said happily.
"I should go pack," James said calmly and rose from his chair and walked up to the boys' dormitory.
Lily looked after him with what she managed as a cold glare, but she felt that she just didn't master it. She couldn't be mad at James and this was all the C-girls' fault. Lily looked sourly at them, and they simply grinned back to her. Lily sighed and then grinned herself, but it soon faded.
"Lily," Erynne said, her voice holding no trace of humor.
Vilde, Julie and Lily frowned at this, as it was the first time they had ever seen Erynne serious. It was like the whole aura around her changed drastically, and she seemed much colder, but also so much wiser. She could actually remind them of a cold Dumbledore.
"I know a thing or two about losing someone you love. Don't throw away the love that is given to you," Erynne said seriously, her eyes glinting with what could only be pain and sorrow.
Lily blinked, and when she opened her eyes again, Erynne was grinning. "I'm betting you'll run up to the girls' dormitory in two seconds, snatching all your things before James decides to take the best room," she said happily.
Lily frowned, but it was soon gone, and she jumped up and ran up the stairs to the girls' dormitory and got her things. She then ran downstairs again, seeing James standing by the fireplace. He saw Lily and the two of them suddenly held challenge in their eyes. Lily grinned wickedly before running to the portrait and out of it.
"Oh crap!" James yelled, "She's gonna take the best room!"
Then the boy ran out of the common room and after Lily. He could see her running down the stairs to the third floor. He ran in another direction and found the picture he was looking for.
"Shackle," he said and the portrait opened and he ran down a very loopy staircase and the picture opened again and he ran into the hall of the third floor.
Lily sprinted down the hall and was almost by the door to the Heads' dormitory when James rounded the corner on the other side of the hall. Lily started laughing loudly, and somehow managed to get to the wall first saying the password (honor) and sprinted into the room. Then she stopped abruptly.
James slammed into her back as he had thought she had continued running. Lily lost her balance and was heading face down towards the floor, but James managed to lock his arms around her stomach and pulled her back to her feet before she hit the ground. A tingly feeling hit Lily in her stomach when she felt his arms around her. She froze and she couldn't move when she realized how strong that feeling actually was.
"Sorry," James whispered and let go of her, walking around the place. "Wow," he said, "This is awesome!"
Lily sighed. "Definitely. I'm gonna make Crazy and Cookie green with jealousy!" she said.
The room was big and round, just like the Gryffindors common room, except it was a tad smaller. The walls were a deep red, probably because the Head boy and girl were both Gryffindors.
Lily walked around and looked out one of the windows. "Look! We can see the Black Lake from here too!" she said happily.
James walked warily up to her, something Lily decided to overlook. If they were going to live together, then they were going to live together. That was as easy as it got. Then Lily remembered something. She turned slowly and as James was occupied studying the room, she snuck into the bedrooms. They were completely identical, except that they were mirrored. But Lily decided to take the room which had most overlooking of the Lake.
"James? I'll take this room," she said, sticking her head into the main room.
James turned to her. "Oh! You already picked! Ah, well. Fine," he said.
"There is no difference to the rooms, though, except they are mirrored," Lily said, smiling.
"Ah, I'm betting you have a better overlook of the Lake," James said, grinning.
"Well … yeah?" Lily asked, hoping it was okay; she really didn't want them to get even more bad blood between each other.
"Heh, it's fine. I don't mind. Maybe I have a better overlook of Hagrid's hut," James said, winking.
Lily blushed slightly, but nodded. "Yeah, you probably have," she said, smiling to him.
"Well, I'm gonna go to bed then," James said and walked into his room, "Good night, Lils," he said softly.
"Good night James," Lily said just as softly.
The two doors closed and the place went silent.
GD: Now, I'm sorry to have to tell you that I'm entering an examtime on my school, and it will therefore be very difficult to update quickly…
Sirius: Yeah, right! You don't study anyways! You have all the time in the world!
GD: That is NOT true. I study. A little…
Lily: You have to take school seriously, GD, or you'll end up doing a job you don't want.
GD: Oh, shut it, Lils. You sound like my mother.
James: Hey! Don't talk poorly about your mother!
*Everybody blinks*
James: What?
GD: You do realize you just offended Lily, right?
James: No, I didn- WHAAAAT? No way! I'm SO sorry Lily-flower!
*Lily rolls her eyes*
James: I AM!
Lily: Yeah, yeah. I don't get offended when you are the offender.
James: Oh, that's goo—HEY!
GD: Anyways, I will upload as soon as I can, and I hope it will be before the end of the week. No, that doesn't include certain people who lives eight hours ahead of me! But to you in America: Sure! I'm six hours ahead of you!
You know you love me
