Summer Vacation
Lily and James Fic Continued....
Lily was happy to be home, the quiet surroundings of her house were quite different from those of the castle. Lily ofcourse did miss lots of things, she missed her friends, her classes, but most of all her boyfriend James Potter. James had written many letters to Lily, but it wasn't the same as being by his side.Lily felt that her and James were much closer now, and the events of last semester seemed to have brought them even closer together. Lily loved reading James' letters, and the one today made her exceedingly happy. Dear Lily Thanks for your last letter. I miss you so much, but guess what I have the greatest news! My mom got quidditch tickets for August 15th, and she said that I could bring you!!!! I hope you can come, because she also said that you could spend the rest of the summer with us to, isn't that great!! Please write back with your answer soon! Love James!!
Lily was jumping up and down, the thought of staying with James for two weeks made her feel all happy inside. After reading and re-reading the letter several times Lily took her letter and raced down the stairs. " Mom, Mom" Lily yelled. "I'm in here darling" Lily's mom called back. Lily followed the voice of her mother, and entered the living room. " Mom, guess what?" " Whats up dear!" Lily handed her mother the letter that James sent her, and gave her a minute to read over it. After five minutes Lily asked " So, can I go pretty please Mom!" she begged. " Well, it's okay with me but I'll have to talk to your father k." he mother replied. " Ok, thanks mom." and she plopped her self on the couch.
James had just sent his letter off to Lily, and was anxious to get a reply soon. James' vacation had been long and boring, and without anyone to talk to but his parents, and his occasional letters from Lily. Sirius had been over a lot to but he always did the same thing, come in say hello, and then head straight for the kitchen. Same old, same old James thought, but if Lily could come he'd have something to do, plus he missed her soo much. James thought I wonder if Lily has gotten my letter yet? Hearing his stomach rumble, he headed to the kitchen for some lunch.
Lily's mother talked to her father that night, and with much arguing he agreed to let Lily go. " Oh thank you, thank you!" Lily cried and hugged her dad tight. Lily than ran upstairs to write back to James. She grabbed a piece of parchment and scrawled down her note. Dear James
I can come! Both my parents talked and they said YES!!!!! I can't wait to see you. Quidditch will be so much fun, I've never seen a real match before. I hope we can have some time alone to catch up to! Well I'll see you in one week! See you soon! Love Lily Evans. Lily looked over her letter, then she seeled it up and tied it to her owl Liko. Well, thats finished she thought.
James peered up at a black box, and said sandwhich, he opened the box and inside was a ham and cheese sandwhich. This was James favorite thing in the house because he never had to cook. He poured himself a coke, and sat down at the table for luch. He hadn't been sitting down for more then five minutes when in walked Sirius. " Hey Jamsie" Sirius said. " Hello Sirius what brings you here?" He asked. " Can't a friend visit from time to time." he said sarcasticly. Sirius looked down at James' lunch and asked "Got any food for me?" " Over there." James laughed. Sirius made himself a snack at sat down and joined James. " So have you sent Lily that letter yet?" Sirius asked. "Yep" James said through a mouth full of food. Sirius spent the night at James' and the stayed up all night talking, when a letter fell on top of James' bed. "It's from Lily it must her responce." James said sleeply. James read the letter and was happy to know that Lily would be here in one week.
Lily couldn't wait to go to James' house after all she had been without him for over a month, and when the day finally arrived she was so excited, but a little nervous to see him again. Lily was waiting in the living room for James to arrive, she had never really asked how he would be coming, but she expected his dad to rent a muggle car, (well she was wrong). Lily was sitting quietly, when she heard a thump in the next room. " Hello" she yelled, and to her surprise she saw James sitting on her kitchen floor. " Oh..... hello" she said. " Lily!" James got up a ran towards her. Lily asked James why he was in her kitchen. "Floo powder Lily." she looked at him puzzeled at that. " What's Floo powder." she asked him. " Oh I'll explain later." he told her, and grabbed her arm and pulled her into the flames. "Bye Mom, Dad" she yelled over a mouth full of soot. Lily felt herself whizzing upside down, and all around, when it had all stop she found that she was no longer in her own kitchen, but standing in the middle of James'.
The room was coated in cherry, and maple wood. There was a long spiral staircase with a velvet runner running up them. The furniture was fancy colors like gold, and deep red, and there were many pictures of what looked like James' relatives. "This is your house?" Lily asked amazed. "Yep" James replied, and pulled Lily to her feet. It felt wonderful to back in James' arms Lily thought. " Come on.. I'll show you to your room." James said. Lily followed James up the stairs, and into a cirular hallway. The Hallway was well lit with a brilliant golden chandelier, the walls were painted golden with a wood trim. James pointed to the second door on the right " That's your room." he told Lily, and opened the door, and revealed the most beautiful bedroom she had ever seen. " Wow!" Lily mouthed. The room was painted light plum, and had dark funishings. The bed was dark wood with silk cloth hanging down, and frilly pillows everywhere. Lily unpacked her things, and joined James on the couch.
James sat there looking at Lily,'she looks even prettier than before' he thought. James brushed Lily's auburn hair out of her face and leaned in. At first he gave her just a small kiss on the cheek, but was pulled back down by Lily. The sat on the couch and kissed for quite some time, James was just coming up for air, when a voice came from the door way. "Ummm.... You must be Lily." a woman asked. Lily sat up straight and turned her attention to the lady. Lily assumed that it was James' mom, and stood up to shake her hand. " Yes..It's nice to meet you Mrs. Potter." Lily said rather quickly. " I have been wanting to meet you for sometime, my little James talks so much about you." Mrs. Potter said. Lily looked at James who gone beet red. "Mom!" he yelled. Mrs. Potter then handed the quidditch tickets to James, " Here, I'll drop you off at the stadium tomorrow bright and early so you better get to bed soon." she said. James glanced over at the clock which read 10:30pm, he hadn't realized how late it was. " Okay mom thanks." he said, and took Lily's hand and headed up the stairs.
James, and Lily had kissed good night at the top of the stairs, and then departed in different directions. Lily walked up the hallway, and turned to her right, she turned the gold handle, and entered her room. Lily was exsausted she fell flat on the feather soft covers, she changed into her favorite purple pajama bottoms, and threw on a white tank top, and let her auburn hair down. It hadn't been more then five minutes later, and she was sound asleep in bed.
James slowly walked to his bedroom door, he was re-playing the events that happened tonight. He was so happy Lily was here, and no longer mad at him. He opened his door, and revealed a very well decorated room. I was deep marron, with lions on the walls, because his mother was so happy the day he became a Grffindor. He had a large four poster bed in the middle with huge comfy pillows, and gold curtains surounding the sides. James changed into to his gold silk boxers, and retired to bed for a good nights sleep.
Lily had awoke early, and was so excited to be at James' house, she got up, and ran down the hall. Lily twisted the gold handle, and opened the door with a creek. Lily slowly crept over to the bed where James was sleeping. She was careful not to make any noise until she reached his bedside. Lily picked up her legs, and crawled under the covers beside James. " James wake up!" Lily shouted in James' ear. James' eyes shot open, he looked up, and was surprised to see a flood of auburn hair covering his face. "Lily???" James jumped off the bed, and scrambled to his feet. Lily stood up beside, him "Morning Darling." she flirted. She kissed him on the cheek, and skipped out the door.
James peered down the hallway, and saw Lily go into the bathroom. James' room had a bathroom in it so he showered in there. He turned on the water, and stepped into the steaming waterfall, he brushed his black hair away from his face, and stood there until he was done. He grabbed a towel from the rack, and tied it around his waist. He unfogged the mirror, and looked at his reflection. He was lean, and thin, but not skinny, he stared at himself, until there was a knock on the door. " James are you in there?" his mother asked. James was broken out of his trance, and brought back down to earth. "Yeah Mom" he answered. "I'm almost done." James shook his jet black hair, and pulled on a pair of dark jeans, and a green t-shirt. James made his way down the hall, in a search for Lily.
Lily had finished her shower, and threw on her favorite cream colored skirt, with a fancy white tank top. She was brushing her waves of auburn hair, and pulled it back into a tight bun. Lily buckled up her black dress shoes, and picked up her tan hand bag. Lily opened the bathroom door, amd found James wondering around the halls. " Hey stranger." she said. James spun around, and smiled a wide grin, he couldn't help but drop his jaw at the site of his girlfriend. Lily did a little twirl before wrapping herself in his arms, she felt like a Princess, safe, warm, and secure. Lily looked up to face James, his pirceing brown eye's made her feel weak in the knees. James leaned towards Lily, and pressed his lips against hers, the kissed deepened, and they both melted togther. They broke away at the same time, Lily grabbed James by the hand, and they walked down the sprial staircase, both feeling much happier then before.
