Tainted Blue

by Mauve Lipgloss

AUTHORS NOTE: Okay! Time for some L/J action! *Crowd applauds* … There will be some minor Remus/Sirius stuff on the side…but this chapter is mostly L/J.

NOTE: If you don't like Sirius/Remus, to fucking bad! This is MY story, and I will choose who is featured in it and whom the couples are, so deal with it! If you don't like it don't read it, I'm not forcing you to! I think most of us are mature adults (hopefully) and can put up with it!

DEDICATION: Everyone who read Chapter 13, and to Celtic Ember, whom unknowingly keeps me inline with some *lovely* reviews! ^_^

OH AND: This chapter is actually kinda a songfic to "Loveshack" by the B 52's…that song rules. Well, actually only the first part/

((If you see a faded sign

by the side of the road

that says 15 miles to the...

Love Shack! Love Shack yeah

I'm headin' down the Atlanta highway,

lookin' for the love getaway

Heading for the love getaway,

love getaway,

I got me a car,

it's as big as a whale

and we're headin' on down

To the Love Shack

I got me a Chrysler,

it seats about 20

So hurry up and bring your jukebox money))



Lily sat outside the school near the lake, and watched as the giant squid snapped at a poor unsuspecting school of fishes.

She was thinking…thinking about one person in particular…James.

Oh, how she wanted to throttle him, yet at the same time she wanted to go and kiss him senseless…the second sounded more appealing AND more logical to her.

Then she heard it. Footsteps coming towards her, standing up she whipped around and saw James looking at her. He didn't have his normal smirk on his face…infact, he looked kinda serious and lustful at the same time.

Lily sat down, hoping he would just go away, of course, however, he walked over and sat down next to her.



((The Love Shack is a little old place

where we can get together

Love Shack baby, Love Shack bay-bee.

Love baby, that's where it's at,

Ooo love baby, that's where it's at))



James looked out at the lake, for a few moments, sitting with her in silence.

Painfully slowly, he slid a arm around her waist and leaned her towards him. She gasped at the contact and looked up at him. She was looking straight in her eyes.

She gulped, and he leaned down to whisper in her ear.

"What do you want?"



((Sign says.. Woo... stay away fools,

'cause love rules at the Lo-o-ove Shack!

Well it's set way back

in the middle of a field,

Just a funky old shack

and I gotta get back))



She looked up into his eyes, and gasped at the emotions she saw in them. 'What does he want me to say? Merlin, he is beautiful.'

She looked surprised at her thoughts, and again he leaned down and repeated what he had said earlier, this time his voice was deep with emotion.

"What do you want?"



((Glitter on the mattress

Glitter on the highway

Glitter on the front porch

Glitter on the hallway))



Again she didn't answer, lost in her thoughts. James stood to leave, and began to walk back towards the school, but she yelled to him.

"Wait James!"



((The Love Shack is a little old place

where we can get together

Love Shack bay-bee!

Love Shack baby!

Love Shack, that's where it's at!

Huggin' and a kissin',

dancin' and a lovin',

wearin' next to nothing

Cause it's hot as an oven

The whole shack shimmies!

The whole shack shimmies

when everybody'sMovin'

around and around

and around and around!

Everybody's movin',

everybody's groovin' baby!

Folks linin' up outside

just to get down

Everybody's movin',

everybody's groovin' baby

Funky little shack!

Funk-y little shack!))



He turned around and stared at her, waiting for her to speak.

She looked at him, and gathered her voice. "James, I want you. I want to be able to wake up in the morning with you next to me, I want to fall asleep with you beside me. I want to grow old and wrinkly with you." He chuckled lightly at that, but was still quiet. "I want to be with you for the rest of my life, I want…I want…I want to become Mrs. James Potter. I want to marry you."

He looked at her in disbelief, which slowly morphed into happiness and love.

In two strides he was standing in front of her, and he pulled her into a deep, passionate kiss.



((Hop in my Chrysler,

it's as big as a whale

and it's about to set sail!

I got me a car,

it seats about twenty

So c'mon and bring your jukebox money.))



The two broke, gasping for air. Lily's hair was tousled, as was James. She was blushing, and James was looking at her in amusement.

Lily thought for a moment, if they were actually going to date, it had better be a mutual effort.

She pulled James down for another passionate kiss.



((The Love Shack is a little old place

where we can get together

Love Shack baby! Love Shack bay-bee!

(Love Shack...Love Shack...)

Love Shack, that's where it's at!))



Again they broke apart, and James once again looked at her in amusement. He looked at her for a good long time before speaking.

"I take it you like me?"

Lily groaned and punched him in the arm as hard as possible.

* * *

Sirius and Remus looked out from their bedroom window at the couple on the lake. They both smiled as the two shared their first kiss.

Sirius moved his hand around in the darkness and entwined it with Remus's hand, giving it a gentle squeeze of reassurance.

"They make a cute couple." He muttered.

Sirius nodded in agreement. "Who would have thought? They hardly knew each other 10 months ago, and now they're madly in love."

Remus suddenly smiled. "It took is ten years to figure out we loved each other, I think it better ten months than ten years for those two, they need each other."

"As do we…" Sirius muttered before pulling Remus down for a kiss.

* * *

Up in a room known as the Astronomy tower, a man with a long silver beard and bright blue eyes stood on the balcony over looking the lake.

He looked at the couple on the ground, who was now cuddled together, speaking quietly. He muttered something out into the air around himself.

"I hope they know what they're getting into…"

With that, he was gone.

* * *

Miles away, Thomas Riddle woke with a start. He looked confused for a moment, then a malicious smile crept onto his face.

'The Stag and Flower have become one…'

* * *

Lily looked into the eyes of James Potter. She saw a reflection of her own eyes in his. Smiling, she reached up and cupped his face.

"I love you James."

"I love you too, Lily."

* * *

((Bang bang bang on the door baby!

Knock a little louder baby!

Bang bang bang on the door baby!

I can't hear you

Bang bang on the door baby

Bang bang on the door

Bang bang on the door baby

Bang bang

You're what?...

Tin roof, rusted!



Love Shack,

baby Love Shack!

Love Shack,

baby Love Shack!

Love baby,

that's where it's at

Love Shack, baby

Love Shack!

Love baby,

that's where it's at

Huggin' and a kissin',

dancin' and a lovin'

at the love shack))

"Loveshack"

Okay all! In the next chapter there will be a lot more of Lily and James!

MWHA! I saw "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones" Friday! That was the best movie I have ever seen! Nothing can get me down right now! I'm high on the force!

I recommend to any Star Wars fans to go and see it ASAP! The effects are the best yet, Anakin is SO sexy, Padme isn't as regally snobby, and to top it off, the ending is quite a surprise.

*CRIES* In the next movie Anakin will become Darth Vader…NO! Oh well, he's still sexy in a "I am evil…deal with it" kinda way.
