Chapter Seven: (not gonna tell you the chapter title because it gives away to much of the title)
Well Sirius did survive. He found some loopholes in his punishment. No one had said that he couldn't get people to play the jokes for him. James, Remus, Maxis, Less, Saraan, and I wouldn't of course, but Peter did. See Peter wasn't there when we saved Snape (he was in the hospital getting blue die removed from his ears), so Peter didn't know about the whole thing. Sirius conveniently didn't tell Peter why he couldn't play jokes so Peter very willingly helped Sirius along, until Maxis told him otherwise. Sirius also worked on his motorcycle a lot and snuck into Hogsmead to but broom supplies, and before he knew it his one and a half weeks were up and he made his come back by cursing the enchanted ceiling to make it look like it was the opposite of whatever weather it really was.
Christmas holidays were coming up. I was looking forward to them too. I was staying at Hogwarts and I planned to spend a lot of time with James in Hogsmead. So the beginning of Christmas break came and a whole bunch of people left and our circle of friends stayed.
"So want to go for a walk?" James asked me. It was the night before Christmas Eve.
"A walk?" I asked.
He nodded.
"Sure."
I ran up to the girl's dorm to get my heavy cloak, because it was really cold out side. Looked for Less but she wasn't up there, so I ran back down stairs to James.
Out side James led me into the forbidden forest.
"You're gonna have to transform." After he said this he did.
I transformed too, and followed him into the forest. I realized he was leading me to the same place he'd led me in our fourth year. When we got there we stopped and went back to our bodies. The clearing was still beautiful even with light powdery snow that fell gently onto it. James was very hesitant about something.
"Is there a reason we're here?" I asked.
"Um, yeah." He murmured.
"Well?" I smiled.
"Um, well I really don't know how to say this, but," he stopped and bit his lip; then he got down on one knee. I knew what was happening. "Lilywillyoumarryme?" he said it so quickly I could barely hear him, he also pulled a ring out of thin air.
"Say what?" I said, even though I knew.
"Lily Thomas will you marry me."
I was just stunned now. I mean I was only 17. Looked back at James and a million thoughts started running through my head. Things like 'Aurors shouldn't be married' and 'just do it you love him and you know it.'
I finally held out my hand and let James slip the ring onto my finger,
"Yes James Potter, I'll marry you."
When we got back to the school I ran up to my dorm to find Less and Saraan. I couldn't wait to tell them the good news. Less was sitting up in the dorm on her bed. She looked like she'd been crying.
"What's the matter?" I asked her as I sat down next to her.
"Oh my god do you know what just happened?" she asked in gasps.
"What?" I got a little worried.
"Sirius just asked me to marry him."
I smiled. "They planned this then."
"What?" she looked surprised.
I pointed to the ring on my finger, she screamed, and then hugged me extremely hard.
"We're both getting married." I said in a daze. "Wait we're only seventeen. We can't do this."
"Maybe you can't, but I am." Said Less dreamily. "I'm actually going to marry Sirius Black."
"And I'm marrying James Potter."
