Chapter Six
A Swim in the Lake

*
When James awoke the next morning, he was very tired, but he couldn't remember why he was so tired. He was really happy they didn't start school until tomorrow, because he didn't feel like going to class today.
Why am I so tired anyway, he thought. Oh, yeah, he remembered, the party last night. Why did I get those butterflies in my stomach when I was dancing with Lily?
James had been thinking about Lily all night. He was confused. Why could he feel his heart melt whenever she smiled at him? Why did he get butterflies when she kissed him?
Deciding he would figure that out later, he decided to head down to breakfast. But first he would go to the girls' dormitory and get Lily up, and walk to breakfast with her, like he did every day (awww)
But as he was heading towards the girls' dormitory to get Lily, he bumped into Lily. He caught her before she hit the ground.
"Whoa," James said, "sorry, Lily." He was still holding her and they were smiling at each other. James quickly helped her to her feet.
"Hey, James. That's alright." He is soooo cute! Lily was thinking to herself. Then she snapped out of it when she realized she was staring at James, but was surprised to see him staring back at her.
She is so beautiful, James thought. Whoa! Wait a minute? Did I just say Lily is beautiful? What's going on? Do I like Lily? No, no I couldn't. Could I?
He snapped out of it and said, "Well, shall we head to breakfast then?" Once again, he gave her one of those famous grins.
Lily returned the grin. "Sure, James." He gave her his arm and she took it happily. They were both pretty quiet on the way to the great hall.
They were just about to turn the corner when they heard voices.
"Listen, Pettigrew, He is getting pretty angry with you. You haven't been visiting him and he wants to tell you his plan on how to get them, because you are part of the plan. If you don't get back to him soon, you'll be punished severely."
"Y-y-yes, Lucius. I have just b-b-been very bus-s-s-y. I promise to go t- talk to him tonight."
"Well, good you little slime ball. You do have SOME sense I see." And with that, Lucius left.
James and Lily looked at each other, both looked very confused. "Peter!" James said, "Wormtail!" James and Lily came running up to him.
"What was that all about, Peter?" Lily asked him. "Yeah, why were you talking to that stupid git Malfoy?" James questioned Peter.
"Oh um it was n-nothing guys. He he." Lily and James could both tell he was lying. "I was just um telling Malfoy to um leave me alone-yeah, yeah that's it! To leave me alone."
Lily and James both looked at each other. Neither one of them knew what to expect.
"A hehe, well, um let's go to breakfast, then. Shall we?" Peter asked. "Uh, yeah, sure..we're right behind you, Peter," James said, "go right ahead. Lily and I'll catch up to you."
And before James had finished that sentence, Peter had run off to the great hall so he could get all the good food since he was such a pig.
"James," Lily asked, "what do you think that was all about? Who was the "He" they were talking about? I'm kinda worried."
"It's okay, Lily, we'll figure it out. I have no idea why Peter was talking to that git, but we'll find out sooner or later."
"Okay, James, if you say so." Lily smiled at him. Then they headed off to breakfast together.
When they got there, Sirius and Kristin weren't at the table, and neither was Peter, but Remus and Audrey were. They seemed to be having a good time, and it looked as though Remus had said something really funny, because Audrey was laughing really hard.
Lily and James also noticed that they were sitting very close to each other. When they got up to the table, Remus and Audrey noticed them, blushed, and scooted a little away from each other.
Lily smiled at them. I think they like each other, Lily thought to herself. How cute!
"Hey guys," Lily said, "what's up?" Her and James sat down.
"Nothing really," said Remus. He and Audrey kept smiling at each other, then blushing and turning the other way.
"Hey guys did Peter come over here at all?" James asked.
"Oh well he came running in here, took some breakfast and a TON of desserts (like I said, he's a pig! Sorry lol I just hate him) and then he rushed out of here without evening saying hello or anything," Audrey said looking confused.
All four of them were perplexed. Then Sirius and Kristin entered, holding hands.
"Hey my people!" Sirius exclaimed, "how's it going?" He always seemed so happy when he was with Kristin.
"Okay, I guess," said Remus, "but we're all kinda confused about Wormtail."
"How come?" Kristin asked. She and Sirius both looked puzzled. "Well," said Audrey, "he ran in here really fast, grabbed some food, and then ran out the doors without saying hello or anything."
"Yeah but me and Lily didn't tell you the other part," James said. "Lily and I were walking down to the Great Hall and we heard Malfoy yelling at Peter and telling him some guy the kept calling "He" was very angry with Peter for some reason. Malfoy wouldn't even say his name like he was a god or something."
Remus, Sirius, Kristin, and Audrey all looked bewildered. "That's so strange," Sirius said. "Yeah, but we'll figure out what it's about sooner or later. For now, let's concentrate on having fun on our day off."
"Yeah, good point," said James. "What do you guys want to do today." Everyone started thinking.
"I've got an idea!" said Sirius, sounding like a little kid at Christmas. "Let's play pranks on the Slytherins!!!!" The Roses groaned.
"No come on, not today!" said Kristin, "that's only fun for you guys. Let's do something else." Then Remus had an idea.
"Let's go swimming in the lake!" he exclaimed. "Yeah!" they all yelled.
Wow that'll be fun, James thought to himself. I wonder what Lily looks like in a bathing suit.WOAH! Where did that come from James? What's wrong with you? I can't possibly be falling for Lily, right? But then he thought about Lily, and her wonderful smile, her beautiful eyes...WOAH! James get a hold of yourself! Just snap out of it man!
After they finished breakfast, they all walked back up to their dormitories together to get into their swimsuits.
"Alright we'll meet back down here in ten minutes," Sirius announced.
So Lily and the other two Roses headed up to their dormitory.
"Oh my gosh guys what should I wear? I have to look good for Sirius!" Kristin exclaimed.
"Yeah, and I have to look good for Remus," Audrey said quietly to herself. Lily heard her, however, but just smiled and didn't say anything.
After about fifteen minutes the girls were all ready. Lily had on a green bathing suit that she looked great in, and put on a short mini pool skirt and a tank top.
When they got downstairs the boys were already waiting. "Hey, looking good Kristin!" Sirius said, putting his arm around here. "You don't look too shabby yourself," Kristin responded, giggling.
When they reached the lake, Sirius put his foot in and said it was the perfect temperature. So, the boys started taking their shirts off and getting ready to jump into the pool. Lily could feel herself getting really hot when she saw James in only his swimsuit.
Lily hadn't noticed James mouth drop open and his eyes pop out when she took off her tank top and skirt, but Audrey and Kristin both noticed this, and smiled at each other.
Lily had barely finished rubbing her sunscreen on when James came running over to her, grabbed her and put her over his shoulder, and started running to the lake.
"Aaaaahhhh!!!" Lily shouted, but she was half laughing. "James Potter you put me down this instant!" she giggled. He had carried her up onto one of the big rocks in front of the lake. Then he put her down, grabbed her hand, and pulled her with him when he jumped into the water.
When she finally came up to the surface, she saw that Sirius were also already in the lake
swimming with each other, and that Remus was carrying a screaming Audrey in his arms into the water.
Then she saw James and started swimming over to him. "James Potter you are so dead!" she yelled, half laughing. "Uh oh!" James said, laughing, too, and started swimming away from her.
He climbed out onto the grass, and she followed him. James and everyone else, including Lily, was laughing really hard. He jumped onto the rock, and dove back into the water. Lily came after him, doing a beautiful dive into the lake.
She had apparently landed in a very deep area of the lake, for it was very dark, but she did see the surface, so she started swimming towards it.
Suddenly something grabbed her leg, and started pulling her down. Lily kicked and struggled but couldn't get out of its grasp. She turned around and saw a very scary half man-half sea monster.
Lily wanted to scream, but she couldn't. Oh please let me get out of this, please, Lily thought to herself.
Above the surface, James was getting really worried. Lily had jumped in after him but she hadn't come back up.
Sirius and Remus were both white and looked terribly worried, and Audrey and Kristin were both crying.
"Alright," James said, "I'm going down. You guys stay up here no matter what, and if I'm not up in 15 minutes, don't come after me! Go get Dumbledore. Okay?
They all nodded. "Be careful James," cried Audrey. "Take care of yourself," said Kristin, who was bawling. "You'll be alright man, I know it!" Sirius said. "Watch out James, I know you can do it," Remus said, but his face looked completely nervous.
James cast a spell on himself so that he could breath for about ten minutes under water. He was swimming so fast. He didn't care if he died, he had to save Lily, it was his fault.
He had lit his wand before he went under so that he could use it as a flash light. He looked everyone. He was so worried he thought he'd be sick.
Oh, Lily, he thought, please be okay! Then, he heard some very loud noise and saw a group of five half-men, half-sea monsters.
He swam down to them to see if he could get them to help him. But first he hid behind some plants to make sure they were safe.
But in the crowd of them, he saw an unconscious, red head. Lily! He thought to himself.
He started swimming towards them, and gave them angry looks. He tried to grab Lily, but one of the creatures hit him and said "Get away human!"
"NO!" James screamed, although only bubbles came out. The creature laughed. James kicked him, and three of the other creatures.
Then he went up to the one holding Lily, kicked him in the face. He put his arm around Lily's stomach, and used the other arm to help him swim up to the surface.
He had to hurry; his time of being able to breath under water was almost up.
He was about 10 feet from the surface when his couldn't breath underwater. Lily was still unconscious but he thought he could feel a pulse.
Finally he reached the surface, and started swimming to the shore, which was about 10 feet away. He heard the calls from his friends, and saw how happy they were to see him and Lily.
Once James reached the shore, he picked up Lily, and got out. They were all running towards him. James could barely walk, he was so tired.
"Here, I got here," said Remus, and he took Lily out of James' hands. "James, buddy are you alright?" Sirius asked, looking really worried. He put one of James' arms around his neck and started helping him over to the bench and table right by them.
Audrey and Kristin were making a fuss. They both hugged James when he finally sat down on the bench, wrapped him in a towel, and then ran over to Lily to see if she was okay.
Remus was still holding her. "I think she's still alive! I feel a pulse!" James was relieved. Oh thank god! He thought to himself.
His arms and legs were all cut up and he was breathing very hard.
"Quick," Remus said, "one of you to get a towel and put it on the table so I can set Lily down." Kristin ran over, got a towel, and laid it across the table. Then Remus set Lily down on it.
Lily was right in front of James on the table. He saw that she was barely breathing. "Guys! Quick she's hardly breathing!" James tried to sit up but he felt an aching pain in his leg.
Sirius ran over to the table with a towel and his wand in his hands. He handed the towel to Audrey, and then performed a spell. Immediately, Lily coughed up a bunch of water and then opened her eyes.
James' heart leapt. She's alright! O thank God Lily is okay, James thought to himself.
"Lily!" Kristin and Audrey screamed. Lily sat up, looking confused, and weak. Sirius wrapped her in a towel.
"What? Huh? Wh-" but before she could finish, everyone started giving her hugs.
Sirius gave Lily a big hug and told her what happened. Lily started crying. "I started swimming to the surface and this giant thing grabbed my leg and started pulling me down."
Audrey and Kristin both gave her hugs again, and Remus put a comforting arm around her shoulder.
"Well," Sirius said, "you're lucky to have someone like James who cares so much about you. He risked his life to save you. He jumped in, found you, and brought you back up to the surface, but you were barely breathing, so Remus laid you on the table and I did a spell that made you cough up your water."
"Oh-oh James! Thank you!" Lily hugged him and started crying again. "Thank you guys too." James grabbed Lily's hand, and whispered, so that only Lily could hear, "I would go to any length to make sure you are okay." (awww!)
Lily let a single tear fall down her face. "Thank you, James," she whispered. "Anytime," he said smiling, and gave her a hug, so happy to have her okay and in his arms.
Sirius then performed a spell that cured James so he could get up again. Remus helped Lily down from the table, and then Kristin and Audrey gave her more hugs.
"That was really brave, man," Remus said to James. "I'm really glad you and Lily are alright." James thanked him, and after getting more hugs from Kristin and Audrey thanking him from saving Lily, and a high-five from Sirius, they headed up to the castle.
James, Remus, and Sirius seemed very protective of the Roses that day, after being shaken up by the whole thing. James kept an eye on Lily the whole rest of the day, as did Remus and Sirius, and James kept a comforting arm around her shoulder the whole evening.
By the end of the day everyone was so happy that they were all okay, that they all went to bed with wide smiles on their faces.
James was really happy when he went to bed, but it couldn't sleep. He was still confused about his feelings for Lily. Why was he getting butterflies every time she smiled at him? Oh well-he would figure it out in the morning. Then, he went off into a deep sleep.
