It was a week before the Christmas Ball. "James!" Lily screeched from their common room. He came running out of his room and almost tripped over the railing.
"What?" he asked.
"I just wanted to say I love you," she smiled. He glared at her.
"You made me drop everything to tell me you loved me?" he growled as he walked down the stairs.
"Yes I did. Why, do you mind?" she asked crossing her arms. He didn't answer her. He just kept walking down the stairs and never took his eyes off of her. She backed up slightly. "James?"
"Yes, Lily." He growled.
"You're scaring me," Lily mumbled.
"I am?" he plainly said. She nodded. "Well, we don't want that, now do we."
"No, we don't James," Lily agreed.
"I have a way to make me very happy. And you as well."
"And how is that?" Lily asked. He was now in arm's length of her. He grabbed her shoulders and pulled her towards him. She was about to ask him again when he started to suckle her neck.
"You smell nice," he muttered as he nuzzled her neck.
"Thanks," she whispered as she tried to keep her balance and was thanking James for keeping her on her feet. He then moved his mouth up to her lips and started to suck on her lips. His hand had travelled to the inner part of her shirt was caressing her silky skin. "James come on, not now."
"Why not? No ones going to bother us." He told her as he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Can we do it tonight? Please?" she pleaded.
"Lily! I can't wait that long."
"You've waited 3 months, I think you can wait a few more hours."
"Come on Lily, please?"
"James, please. I want to surprise you with something."
"Surprise?" he questioned her.
"Mhmm... And you'll get it later."
James thought for a second and realized what tonight was… the full moon. "Lils, I can't, I'm sorry."
"Why not?" she pouted.
"It's the full moon tonight…" he started.
"Ohh, and Remus needs you and Sirius right?"
"Yeah."
"Oh, that I understand. I'll just invite the girls over here for an old fashioned muggle slumber party."
"So your saying I might want to stay in my old dorm tonight?"
"If you wouldn't mind being around about 6 of us screaming and giggling girls."
"I think I'll sleep in my old dorm tonight."
"Kinda thought you would."
"Yeah," James laughed and ran a hand through his hair.
"James."
"Yeah?"
"I really do love you."
"Yeah, I know."
"Do you love me?"
"I have to think about that," he said as he stroked his chin as all great thinkers do. Lily just laughed and rolled her eyes. "Of course I do."
"I know. I just love hearing you say it" she smiled. James smiled back at her. The rest of the afternoon passed like any other. Lily was doing her homework; James was lounging around, doing nothing.
"Okay Lils, I'm going now, talk to you tomorrow."
"Of course. Bye love," Lily stared into his hazel eyes. She gave him a short peck on the lips.
"I love it when you kiss me," he said as ran a hand through his hair.
"Come on Romeo," someone said from behind him. James turned around to see Sirius with the 5 other girls of Gryffindor.
"Bye James," Lily said as Sirius and him walked away. He shot a smile back and Lily sighed.
"Someone is in l-o-v-e," Sophia sang.
"We already knew that," April laughed.
"But hey, it's fun saying it," Hannah said and Sophia agreed.
"Okay, let's get this party started!" Amelia shouted happily.
"Yeah!" Lily agreed in an equally loud voice. Lily conjured up a boom box and pulled a CD case out of her desk.
"Who you got?" Rachel asked.
"A whole bunch of peoples," Lily muttered. April went over and took the case from her.
"Ohh, I love this band," she squealed as she put in a mix marked 'Blink 182'. The song that came on was 'First Date'...
In
the car, I just can't wait...
To
pick you up on our very first date
Is
it cool if I hold your hand?
Is
it wrong if I think it's lame to dance?
Do
you like my stupid hair?
Would
you guess that I didn't know what to wear?
I'm
just scared of what you think.
You
make me nervous so I really can't eat
All
the girls were dancing and singing along by this point.
Lets
go... don't wait... this nights almost over
Honest...
lets make... this night last forever
Forever,
and ever... lets make this last forever
Forever,
and ever... lets make this last forever
"We need junk food!" Sophia stated.
"I know where I can find a charm for that," Lily told her as she ran to James staircase and scurried up. She mumbled the password and shot into the room. She went to his bookcase and looked for the food spell book she had seen before. She found it and shot out of the room. "Ackit attre" she pronounced as she pointed her want to the coffee table. All of a sudden bowls appeared. One of them had popcorn, another had 3 types of chips, regular, sour cream and onion and BBQ, with dip, veggie and regular chip dip. Then a red bowl appeared with chocolate kisses, another with jolly ranchers, another one with Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans and a few pitchers of Pepsi, butterbeer and 6 glasses. Then a bowl of fresh strawberries and 6 cans of whip cream.
"Partus rilegels" April said and everything needed for a girls slumber party appeared. There were pillows, make up, Teen Witch magazines, cards, and more.
"I love our slumber parties," Sophia laughed as she took some chips from the bowl.
"Who doesn't?" Amelia asked as she attacked the popcorn.
"Weird people?" Lily suggested as she came out of James room. She had put the book back and was heading towards the candy.
"Like you? Ha-ha, just kidding." Hannah joked. Lily stuck her tongue out. The girls pigged out and talked for a while.
"Make over time!" Rachel said as stood up. All the girls agreed so Hannah conjured 3 chairs.
"Okay…pick a friend and you do her make up, then they do yours, okay?" Lily stated as she finished laying out the entire make up about 2 minutes later onto a table. They finished the makeovers and started to just lounge around until they eventually went to bed around 2, 3 in the morning. Lily was the first to wake up, because of a ray of light hitting her closed eyes. She yawned and snuggled back into her sleeping bag and fell back asleep. After about 3 hours later, all the girls were awake and were sitting in their sleeping bags, just talking.
"We should really get up and go to breakfast." Amelia said as she looked at her watch. The girls all agreed so they took turns in the shower and then they headed off to breakfast. Lily entered the Great Hall and spotted James so she skipped over and put her hands over his eyes.
"Guess who."
"This is a tough one…Lily." James said as he took her hands and kissed them. She giggled and sat next to him. Amelia sat with Sirius and Sophia just sat next to Amelia. April, Hannah and Rachel had gone to the Ravenclaw table. Lily felt something on her leg and looked up and was attacked by James lips. Remus came in shortly after claiming he had forgotten to set his alarm clock and sat next to Sophia. She kissed for a little while until Amelia cleared her throat rather loudly.
"Okay, I know you and him are together, but please don't do it in front of me." She said.
"Okay, fine," Lily pouted slightly as she ate a grapefruit. Two nights ago, Dumbledore had decided to have a Hogsmeade so students could get their outfits. About 2 hours after breakfast, the students separated by their years and were put into carriages. Since 1st and 2nd years were going, some of the teachers went along to help supervise.
"I can't wait till Christmas," Sophia said.
"Neither can I," Amelia squealed and they started talking. Lily on the overhand was staring out the window and Remus noticed her behavior as the rest of the group played exploding snap.
"Lily?" she snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the sandy haired boy.
"Yes?"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing…it's just. This is the first Christmas without my mother or my grandparents…" she muttered and a single tear rolled down her cheek.
"Oh."
"Yeah…and I'm staying here at Hogwarts while the rest of you guys go away."
"Whoa, what did you say Lily?" James said as he looked at his girlfriend who was sitting next to Remus.
"I'm staying here for Christmas."
"No you're not."
"Well I can't go home. You know that," she said with a sad face.
"Well," he muttered. "I'm inviting you to spend the holidays with me. My mom wouldn't mind. Remus and Sirius are staying the time too. Amelia is obviously there and Sophia is coming a few days before New Years."
"Yeah. Come to our house Lils," Amelia agreed.
"Besides, do you think James would let you stay here with Amos and Malfoy?" Sirius piped in.
"If I ever left my Lily behind, she'd be with someone I'd trust. Which would be either one of these two," James stated, pointing to the two other boys in the carriage. "You're coming and that is final."
"Okay," she smiled and kissed him. "I'm coming with you."
"Yes, I'm not stuck with these goofballs for the whole holidays!" Amelia cheerfully shouted.
"Hey," Sirius said as he playfully shoved her. She just grinned and gave him a kiss. Lily just went and sat next to James and snuggled into his warm torso.
"I love you," she softly said into his ear and tenderly nipped his ear…
HOGMEADE
"Okay, let's meet back here about an hour before we have to leave." Remus said. Rachel, Hannah and April met up with Lily, Sophia and Amelia when they were unloading.
"Off to Madame Malkin's." Amelia and April said as they took off towards the robe shop, followed by Lily, Hannah, Sophia and Rachel.
