Lily's Diary

I have sunk to a level I never thought I would go to and am extremely happy because of it. Of course, if James can't get over this whole jealousy thing, I may be forced to murder him myself.

I had my detention today for what McGonagall caught James and I doing last night in the hallway. Wow that sounds dirty! Of course, it kind of was.

Anyway...I was walking out of charms and just happened to run into Sirius. I mean that literally. He wasn't paying attention, watching some girl in front of him walk and plowed right over me.

I'm sure that this looked quite awkward because I fell on my back and he tripped as well, falling directly on top of me. Sirius looked at me then burst out laughing in that deep, barking laugh of his and with a lopsided grin on his face. I couldn't help but crack up as well.

"Hmm." started Sirius. "It's a really good thing James isn't here or he would probably get really mad about this," he finished, winking at me as he did so.

Apparently James had walked out just in time to hear that. He immediately started jumping to conclusions.

I can sort of understand this. If I had walked out of class and seen him lying on top of some girl and heard him say that, I would have been a tad bit pissed of as well. I, of course, would not have been so mean about it and made a bloody bastard out of myself that way that James did.

"Sirius Black, what the bloody hell do you think you are doing?" Sirius rolled over and sat up to look at James, clearing my line of vision so that I could see him as well. I could see the anger on his face, but more than that, I could see jealousy. Jealousy was plastered across every inch of his body.

"I thought you were done being a traitor," He spat at Sirius. Then to me he said, "You really need to make up your bloody mind or I WILL find a way to get over you!" At that, he turned and walked away, stomping his feet as he walked around the corner and out of our sight.

Our detention that night started at half- past seven. This is basically directly after dinner. I spent most of the day worrying about having to spend this time with James, the reason for my worries mainly being that I figured that he probably thought of me as a tease and/or a whore.

As we normally do when working on something together, James and I me ton our common room and walked to McGonagall's office together.

It was a quiet walk. I kept glancing over at James's hard, cold expression. He wasn't letting any emotion show, but had an aura of anger.

McGonagall informed us of our punishment. We were to polish all of the trophies and awards in the trophy case without using magic. This was nothing to me, but James thought it sounded like torture. It's completely obvious that he didn't grow up in a muggle family.

Once our wands were taken away and we were left to our work, we began to work through the awkward silence. James apparently still had a foul temper towards me.

We polished for what seemed like and hour in silence. I was polishing the lower trophies because I wasn't particularly fond of heights while James stood at the top of the ladder, cleaning the trophies and awards at the top of the case.

Being mildly clumsy, I managed to bump into James's ladder. Let me just say that 1.) ladders are definitely not the most stable structures and 2.) because of my first statement, setting a large bucket full of polish-filled water on said ladder is probably not the safest way to go.

Yes, you might have figured out what happened by now, but I'm going to state it again anyway. The bucket tipped over, pouring dirty water on me then falling to the floor next to me.

The look on my face had to have been completely priceless because I was completely shocked. I would bet any amount of money that I looked something like a wet dog after this incident.

I looked up at James, trying to gage his reaction to my current situation. He was smirking at me; he looked as though he was battling the urge to laugh or that to stay mad at me.

The urge to laugh won our because he suddenly burst out into laughter, climbing down that ladder as he did so in order to keep himself from falling off. He was doubled over, rolling on the floor as he laughed this out.

"I'm glad you're getting so much entertainment out of this," I finally stated, sowing my irritation through my voice.

He stood up, trying to gain composure. He walked over to the pile of rags and threw me a towel, flashing me one of his sideways smiles as he did so.

I turned away, using the towel he had given me to dry myself off a little bit. Next thing I knew, I could feel someone standing abnormally close to me with their eyes bearing into my back.

I turned back around to find James standing there with a careful expression on his face. He looked like he was calculation, although I could not for the life of me fathom why at the time.

I put my defenses back up. "What? You're talking to me now? I thought I'd pissed you off and you weren't talking to me anymore."

"I wasn't, but I'd been thinking about it and I just..." he replied, staring at the floor as he did so. It is so unusual to see him acting all shy like this.

"I think that maybe I should have listened to you before jumping to conclusions. It's just that I...seeing you and Sirius...I thought that maybe you had...that maybe you fancied him after pretending to date him."

"James, that's ridiculous." I said, my voice echoing with relief. "You know that the only reason I dated Sirius in the first place is because I love you."

The second those final three words came out of my mouth, I froze in shock, looking at James to see if he had noticed. Judging by the wide grin that had spread across his face, he had definitely heard every word I had said, especially the last three.

He quickly closed the distance between us, wrapping his arms around my waist and hocking his eyes with mine s he said, "I love you too, Lily."

He leaned down and kissed me with so mush passion that is took my breath away.

Finally, we pulled apart, both panting. In a sexy, breathless voice he asked, "Lily Evans, will you be my girlfriend?"

I smiled at him, only pausing a moment before I replied, "Of course I will!"

Then I wrapped my arms tightly around his neck, pushed myself up onto my tip toes and kissed him again.
