Everyone had come back the next day, but nothing exciting happened to tell about now. Lily was anticipating the day when her and James would leave for their secret place. Finally the sixth Hogwarts year was coming to an end, and Lily was busying herself with packing. (James had already told Lily about the family thing obviously!)

"Lily we have another day to get ready! Come and spend some time with me!" James said, smiling suggestively.

"We can snog later!" Lily replied, placing a couple shirts in her bag.

"Why don't you just magic the clothes in?" James whined.

"Because! Whenever I do that, it never goes in neatly. It's always a huge mess."

"But Lillyyy," James wailed.

"No but's!" Lily said smiling at James.

"Fine, then I'll help you!" James exclaimed opening up her underwear drawer. Lily turned bright red and quickly closed the drawer.

"Well, Well, Well-," James began.

"Don't say one word James Michael Potter!" Lily squealed.

Lily finished packing, making James go out of the room so he wouldn't attempt to help her pack again. Barbara walked in a saw the five roller bags next to the sighing Lily. Barbara pouted and Lily gave her a questionable look.

"I'm going to miss hanging out with you!" Barbara cried, flailing her arms desperately in the air. Barbara ran over towards Lily, and braced herself for what was about to come. Barbara tackled Lily into a hug, and making fake sniffling noises.

"Uh, Barbara dear," Lily said.

"Yes," Barbara sniffled.

"It's only going to be two months!" Lily shouted, pushing Barbara off her. Barbara got up and looked sadly at Lily. Lily couldn't help but laugh.

"Oh, I'll miss you too Barbara!" Lily said, while Barbara beamed at Lily.

"Well Toodlez!" Barbara yelled, skipping out of the dormitory.

"Wait for me!!" Lily wailed, running after Barbara. Lily lost sight of Barbara but continued to run down the dormitory stairs, until she ran into a large mass of a boy. Lily let out a scream, as she tumbled down a couple stairs, and fell on top of the person, as they slid into the common room. Lily sighed, and leaned up a bit, to see a frightened James with his eyes clenched shut.

"Uh…Uh…whoever you are I'm sorry!" James said. Lily kept in a giggle, and leaned down, kissing James deeply. Lily felt James' arms wrap around her as the kiss continued and kept on getting deeper.

"Please don't tell me that you guys are going to see each other during the summer, when I'm there," Sirius commented. Lily looked up and smiled innocently at Sirius, as did James.

Lily and James quickly got up and brushed themselves off, heading down to the Hall. They had gotten the last two days off, seeing that the past week was full of exams. Lily and James had both got top marks on all their exams. All of their friends suspected them to get Head Boy and Head Girl next year.

In the Hall, Barbara had situated herself next to Remus, and Peter was eating hurriedly to Lily's dismay.

"How'd you know I was coming down to eat a late lunch?" Barbara asked.

"Oh, well, it was quite obvious, seeing that most of the marauders weren't in the common room. Other than that, I was just following you for the hey of it," Lily replied, smiling foolishly.

"Once again James, your face is smeared with lip gloss," Remus observed. James quickly wiped off the lip gloss, and they all sat down to have their late lunch. Of course, they had all planned this already with out Lily knowing, because they always seemed to have breakfast, lunch and dinner together.

The day was coming to an end, and Lily was slowly walking up to the Gryfinndor tower, after playing a major prank on the Slytherins before they left. Let's just say a few words to get the point across: dung bombs, unconscious, Slytherins (duh), and lots of makeup. Yeah it was fun, but Lily had to do it alone seeing that the rest of her prankster group was off in detention. Lily figured it would be the best time to do it, because Professor Ulogy was preoccupied watching the other three. Barbara would've helped but she wanted to start packing, even though they did have another day. Lily and Barbara were alike in many ways, but back to the prank. The prank would've been funnier with them, but later in the night it will be. The reasoning is because everyone will probably wake up from the girlish screams from Malfoy and Snape. Also Lily took wonderful pictures of the Slytherins with their makeup on. It didn't matter if she took pictures of the makeup-ed girls, because the Slytherin girls closely resembled guys, so it was all good.

The boys were about to get out of detention, and Lily had planned to wait. Instead though, Lily headed up to the common room to wait on the couch. Lily approached the portrait and muttered the password (Gerald Fungus; a nasty wizarding fungus spell), and walked through the notch in the wall. Lily plopped herself down on the poofy couch, and slowly began to close her eyes. She tried to keep them open but found herself slowly drifting into slumber.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

James walked up to the portrait, joking with his friends about pranks they were planning to play next year. They would've the next day, but were too excited thinking about the summer to care. They all walked through the notch, saying the password before. James noticed Lily sleeping on the couch, and motioned for the guys that he would be up in a second. James walked slowly over to Lily, letting out a brief laugh at the pictures she clutched in her hands of the Slytherins decked in makeup. James took the pictures and lifted Lily up, walked up the girl's dormitory stairs, and through the tall oak door to the sixth years dorm. James silently put her on her bed, and tucked her in. He then crept out to go show the guys the pictures.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Lily woke up in the middle of the night, to hear what she had expected. It was screams coming from the Slytherin's quarters, heard even up into the Gryffindor tower, and in the dormitories. Lily let out a small laugh, and fell back asleep.

The next day was very hectic. Everyone was getting ready to leave Hogwarts. A majority were sad to go. The end of the day came sooner than Lily had expected, as she looked at the puff of smoke encircling the giant mass of metal, referred to as the Hogwarts Express. Lily let out a long sigh and felt an arm wrap around her. She leaned her head on James' shoulder, as they walked aboard the train. They found their friends in a back compartment and discussed their summer plans. Barbara had decided to join them this time, and had gotten further away from her snobby friends. They were a clan now, and Lily knew they'd be friends for a long time. They all agreed to meet at the wand shop, and had heard there was a new young owner. All they knew was that his last name was Ollivander. Besides their meeting, they all had different plans, seeing that Lily and James had to come up with different ideas for their vacations. Lily hated to lie to her friends, but it was necessary. James had said he was going to Jamaica, and Lily told them she was going to the United States. Soon the plump witch came by, and they were all too busy stuffing their faces with goodies to talk to rest of the way.

Soon the Hogwarts Express came to a halt, and they all stood up, walking slowly off the train. Lily didn't have to worry about her stuff, because she had it specially sent to where her and James were staying. This was it though, the time she was going to tell her parents. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she knew they wouldn't agree, but throughout the year she had convinced herself that they would. Lily took hold of James arm, and walked through the barrier of 9 ¾. Her parent's mouths were wide open, and Bianca was standing there, a large grin plastered on her face. Lily approached her parents.

"Mom. Dad. I am going to stay with James somewhere this summer, and there is nothing you can do about it," Lily said sternly, realizing this wasn't the best way to put it. The shock on her parent's face suddenly turned to anger.

"NO! NO! NO!" Lily's dad shouted.

"No way you are going to stay with…HIM!" Lily's mom screeched, pulling Lily off with her. James just stood there with a look of sadness splayed across his face. His mom approached and Lily and James tried to keep their hands intertwined, but slowly they were sliding away until their hands parted. They both looked at each other sadly until the other could no longer see their other half.
