Hogsmeade Weekend
Lily arose early the next morning and woke up Kristen, Kim, and Katie they were probably the closest girl friends that she had.
They were anxious to pick out dress robes for the ball, they were also going to the dance with Marauders except for Kristen she was going with her boyfriend Michael from Ravenclaw.
Kim was going with Sirius, and Katie with Remus, although knowing their personalities, Kim being a bit quiet, and Katie being outspoken you might think that it would be the opposite.
However when you saw Kim with Sirius or Katie with Remus you would realize that that was why it worked so well, they brought out the best of each other, Sirius loved watching Kim blush as he made a fool of himself over her, and it was refreshing for Remus to have someone as outgoing as Katie to push him to his limits.
They spent the morning in the Robe shop looking for something to wear, Lily always felt so out of place with the three girls, they were all blonde, and all blue eyed, except for Kristen who had more of hazel eyes, all the same, while they were trying on robes, they looked good in the same things, stunning in fact, while Lily just didn't feel right, it wasn't until the owner of the shop, seeing the trouble she was having, came up and offered to help,
"Excuse me, but I must say these dresses aren't at all what I would think would suit you. Your beauty is unique which calls for-" her voice became muffled as she went to the back room and came out carrying an emerald green robe, everything clipped in what looked like real emeralds (although they were not) the neck was a little bit lower than Lily would have usually felt comfortable with but the cloak that went over it would cover her suitably, after Lily tried it on, she knew it was perfect, it fit her just right,
"Wow Lily that's perfect!"
"James better keep his guard up I'm sure he wont be the only one wanting to dance with you!"
"Your gonna get it right?"
Lily looked at the price tag, it was a little bit more expensive than she might have hoped for but the look on James' face when he saw her in it would be priceless.
It was 11:30 and Lily began to get bored with the girls, they were nice and everything but because she spent so much time with the Marauders (more so James) she wasn't in on all the jokes they had, and she didn't know half the people they were talking back, all she could do was sit and nod like a mindless idiot.
She decided to meet James a little earlier than she excepted.
Lily walked timidly to the ice cream parlor; at least it would be easier once she saw James. She looked around the parlor once she arrived and found James sitting in a corner with Sirius, and as soon as she walked in James shooed Sirius away.
Lily smiled as Sirius walked by, winked at her and then gave her a quick smack on the butt to hurry her along. She laughed and her eyes drifted back to the corner where James, who was no doing his best to clean up whatever mess he and Sirius had made
"Successful shopping?" James inquired mocking the voice of an old woman
"Very" she gave him a sly smile then a wink, "What were you and Sirius talking about?"
"Nothing really he just gave me his 'big brother little sister' talk," Lily cocked her head in confusion
"He considers himself to be something of your big brother, he cares for you tiger, more than you may think" they continued to talk as though they were in the room of requirements once more, although near the end of their conversation Lily couldn't help but notice a giant black dog staring at her, the eyes seemed familiar and troubled, nothing like the eyes of James, that at the moment were wide and vibrant full of joy and life.
They continued with small talk about god only knows what, it was one of those conversations that could have lasted 3 days and the only reason it would register how late it was when your butt would begin to feel numb.
They wound up being the last ones to leave the parlor, walking in, in front of the lake was more beautiful than James had ever seen it was calm which didn't usually happen because students were quite keen on throwing dungbombs in to agitate the squid, but as of now it was beautiful.
James looked at Lily who was also looking into the water, her eyes searching it, deep in thought.
"I had a really good time today," James said hoping to break the all to awkward silence,
"Me too" She smiled at him he was adorable when he was nervous, she then shot him a reassuring smile then hugged him,
"This has been fun hasn't it, I mean you and I we have had fun right?" he still looked nervous
"Yeah it really has, you are different than I thought you would be"
"Then will you, I mean I have gotten to know you and I like you more now than I ever have in the seven years I have known you, so will you do me the honor of letting me be your boyfriend?" At first James had trouble reading her expression then a grin broke through
"Yes James I would love too, I was beginning to think I had scared you from asking me..." His face lit up like fireworks at the coming of the new year, he gave her a hug that lifted her up off the ground, She had to laugh at his giddiness.
They walked up to the common room, which was surprisingly empty. She looked at him happier than she did had been in months, gave him a kiss on the cheek, and walked to the girl's dormitory she was James Potters girlfriend. What was the madness?
Sirius who had been following in his animagus form since they left the parlor was laying in the corner, and watched James head up to the boys dormitory.
Why was he feeling betrayed, well that was easy because he liked Lily, and even though his feelings were beginning to subside with Kim being so great, he still couldn't help it. At least they are happy together now he thought to himself, with a deep sigh and a heavy heart the climbed up to his dormitory as well...
