"No way!" Jo shrieked.
"Yea, I know!" Lily was out of breath, explaining why she never caught up with Jo and Adrian.
"And he held your hand!" Adrian gushed. "You and Adam would make such a cute couple."
"You would." Jo agreed.

Lily blushed, thinking about the great time she had had with Adam. She looked around the room, noticing almost everyone had finished their dinners. She then looked up at the enchanted ceiling. It was a nice cloud-less night, and the moon was almost full. As Lily looked up Jo and Adrian giggled. She looked down right when her eyes were covered.

"Guess who." The voice said.

Lily smiled and then touched the persons hands.

"Hi Adam," Lily tilted her head back and smiled up at him.
"What are you doing tomorrow?" He asked, sitting next to her.
"Well... probably some homework." Lily started thinking about everything she had to do before classes started again on Monday.

As she was thinking about everything she had to do, Jo kicked her shoe from under the table.

"Hey!" Lily looked at Jo, wondering why she kicked her.

Jo widened her eyes at Lily, and Lily gave a nod of understanding.

"But those things shouldn't take me that long, what did you have in mind?" Lily turned her attention back to Adam.
"Well, tomorrow night there is supposed to be an amazing meteor shower." Adam replied.
"Sounds like fun!" Lily quickly responded.
"I'll see you tomorrow then." Adam smiled, giving Lily a kiss on the cheek before heading up to his room.

As soon as Adam let the door to the Great Hall close, all three girls shrieked.

"Oh my gosh!" Adrian and Jo said together and they all began to laugh, noticing everyone left in the Great Hall was looking at them like they were crazy.

"So tomorrow should be fun." Sirius said, looking at James, Remus, and Peter.
"Why's that?" Remus asked.
"Full moon," Sirius grinned.

Remus shook his head as they began to laugh.

"It should be a nice night too." James added.
"Really?" Peter squeaked, hoping to add to the conversation.

James nodded.

"There's supposed to be a wicked meteor shower tomorrow." James grinned.
"And I'm not going to be able to remember it." Remus frowned.
"Aww..." Sirius faked sympathy and Remus chucked a pillow at him. "Hey! Anyways, so you had a good time with Lily, James?"
"Yup." James grinned.
"Any details?"
"Nope."
"C'mon, you can tell me. I'm your best mate."
"And what does that make me?" Remus asked.
"His second best mate." Sirius responded as Remus laughed, shaking his head. "So anyways, what did you guys do? We didn't see you after Avery and those Slytherines we're being gits."
"We just hung out." James said.
"Did you tell Lily?" Peter asked.
"Are you crazy? She would think I'm lying anyways, and she wouldn't even let me be her friend." James shook her head. "If she found out, I don't know." James just imagined the look on Lily's face if she found out. "But anyways, tomorrow should be fun."
"Yup," Sirius agreed.

Lily stood looking in the mirror at herself. She had her hair down in curls with hoop earrings on. She put on a warm green jacket over her white shirt.

"Why you all dressed up?" James asked, walking out of the shower with just a towel on.

Lily looked at him then quickly looked away, shaking her head trying not to laugh.

"Can you put some clothes on?" Lily couldn't help but laugh. She ran her fingers through her hair.
"But I was planning on going around like this the rest of the day." James said.

Lily turned around, raising her eyebrow and put her hands on her hips.

"Fine. You take away all the fun." James pretended to pout.

James walked to his room and came out a minute later with a pair of baggy jeans and a red sweater on.

"So now can you tell me?" He asked as Lily was putting a pair of shoes on.
"I'm going to hang out with Adam." She responded.
"Oh." James said, trying not to sound jealous. "Cool. Well I gotta get going too."
"Where are you going?" Lily stood up after finishing tying her shoes.
"Marauder business." James grinned.
"Well don't get into too much trouble. You supposed to be setting an example for the younger students remember."
"I remember." James laughed. "I'll see you later." James grabbed his coat and walked out the door.
"Bye." Lily said watching him leave.

She sighed, looking in the mirror. She played with a few strands of hair until she felt they were in the right place. Right as she sat down, there was a knock on the door. Lily smiled to herself and got up to open the door. Standing in the doorway was Adam, smiling back at her.

"Ready to go?" He asked.
"Yea." Lily smiled, taking the arm Adam had extended to her.

He escorted her out of her room and through the castle.

James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter hurried across the school grounds towards the Whomping Willow. Their eyes were on the sky, watching as the moon rose into the air.

"I can't believe we're gonna miss it." Remus complained the whole way.
"Oh just give it a rest Moony. There will be other meteor showers for you to ogle at." Sirius said.

Remus looked over at Sirius then focused on getting to the tree on time.

"You took the potion right?" James asked.
"Oh geeze. I've only done this how many times? Yes, I remembered to take the potion." Remus replied annoyed.
"Mate, we PROMISE there will be other meteor showers you can watch." James laughed.

Remus tried to give a nasty look to James, but couldn't hold it and ended up laughing. They had reached the Whomping Willow and James pulled out his invisibility cloak, put it on and pushed the spot on the tree to freeze it.

"Are you guys coming?" Remus asked as he and Peter made their way to the tree.
"We'll be there in a sec." Sirius responded.
"Ok." Remus headed down into the tree.

As soon as Peter and Remus disappeared into the tree, Sirius turned to James.

"What's up?" Sirius questioned.
"What do you mean?" James asked, confused.
"You seem out of it."
"Really?"
"Don't play dumb. I know that something is bugging you. What is it?"

James sighed.

"I don't know. I guess I'm just thinking about..." James paused.
"Lily?"
"Yea." James nodded.
"Mate, you're not gonna like what I have to say but you need to move on. There are other fish in the sea. You can find another great girl. Plus, Lily is with Adam now."
"Yea... well let's get down there before the fun starts without us."
"There's the Prongs I know." Sirius grinned, slapping James on the back before they headed down the tree.

"It's such a nice night." Lily smiled looking up at the sky. "Perfect night for a meteor shower."
"Yea," Adam smiled at Lily. "There?"

Adam pointed to a spot under a bare tree.

"Perfect." Lily smiled up at Adam.

Adam laid a blanket down under the tree. He sat down first and Lily sat next to him, close enough so he could put his arm around her shoulder. They looked around the grounds, noticing a few other couples enjoying the nice night, in anticipation for the meteor shower.

"This is going to be amazing. I hear it's supposed to be one of the best meteor showers in years." Lily looked up at the sky.
"You're amazing." Adam smiled, looking at Lily.

Lily looked up at him and smiled too.

"Lily Evans, will you be my girlfriend?" Adam asked.
"I would love to be your girlfriend Adam Bagnold." Lily smiled.

Adam leaned over and gave Lily a soft kiss on the lips, right as the first meteor appeared in the sky and a howl came from the distance.
