Christmas passed and Lily and James never mentioned what happened under the mistletoe. Nothing had changed between them. A week after Christmas, Lily, James, Remus, and Sirius were all sitting in the common room, bored out of their minds.
"What do you want to do?" asked Sirius.
"I don't know," Remus replied, "What do you want to do?"
"No idea. What do you want to do?" Lily questioned.
"I don't care. What do you want to do?" James said.
"I'm bored," Remus stated.
"No really. I never would have guessed," Sirius replied sarcastically.
Two girls, Missy Brown and Brittany Patil, passed by and Missy said loudly. "You never would have guessed. I heard that Snape likes Fran Bulstrode!"
Sirius's eyes lit up and he laughed gleefully.
"What?" Lily asked irritably.
"I know what we can do!" Sirius exclaimed.
"And..." James said helpfully.
"And I think we should play a prank on Snape! His days have been too peaceful lately."
"Yea...like..." Lily prodded.
"Uhhh... I don't know."
"I got it!" said James. "We should charm the house elves to do something to them!"
"Like what?" Lily asked impatiently.
"Hmmm.. what can house elves do?" James said thoughtfully.
"Hmmm.." Lily mimicked. "Cook?"
"We should have them make Snape into a sticky banana split!" Remus shouted.
"Bravo," said Sirius, "but let's not tell the entire common room."
"All right," said Lily, suddenly businesslike, "What time is it?"
"Eleven," answered James.
"Okay, then we should have an hour to plan and then we'll go to the kitchens at midnight," Lily said.
"All right then," said Sirius and they all put their heads together to discuss.
By midnight, the whole group was ready. Lily was do the charming, since she was the best at it. Lily was to go to the kitchens and charm them to whip cream the boy whom Lily would show them a picture of. James was to go with her as a lookout. Sirius was supposed to lead the house elves to the Slytherin common room and Remus would follow behind them to make sure all the house elves got there.
"Good luck," Remus told Lily and James, who were climbing out the portrait hole.
"We won't need it," James said, pretending to be haughty.
He and Lily ran under the Invisibility Cloak to the kitchens. They were to give it to Sirius and Remus after they finished their part of the job.
James ran with Lily under the Invisibility Cloak, happily at the thought of how close they were. James looked out of the corner of his eye at Lily. Her eyebrows were knitted in concentration. James almost laughed. He knew the only thing she was serious about was pranks.
They made it to the kitchens and James stood near the door like a watch dog. Lily greeted all the house elves and they gathered around her, asking her what they could do for her. Lily smiled sweetly and muttered a charm before the elves could blink an eye. They all started to look dazed. They reminded her of Muggles who were hypnotized, only Lily knew hypnotizing was very unreliable.
Lily pulled out a picture of Snape and told them to make him into a banana split. They all nodded and walked slowly to get the ingredients.
"Can't you make them hurry up?" James whispered urgently.
Lily only shrugged.
The house elves headed for the door in perfect unison. James opened the door and Remus and Sirius fell in. James threw them the Cloak and they Remus and Sirius started to lead the elves to the Slytherin room. Lily laughed at how comical they looked with all the cherries, bananas, whipped cream, hot fudge, and ice cream. Snape was going to LOVE this.
James followed her gaze and chuckled. Then he grabbed her hand and they left the kitchens. They were careful to walk in the shadows, as they didn't have the cloak anymore.
Lily looked down at James hand, which still held hers. James looked down too and blushed. He removed his hand which, Lily noted, made hers feel strangely cold and empty.
Lily and James were so caught up that they just heard Filch's voice filtering through the hall, not too far away.
"Where did you say you heard them, my dear," said Filch's oily voice to his cat, Mrs. Norris.
Lily grabbed James arm and pulled him into the first room she could find. It was dark and they couldn't see a thing.
"Lily?" James asked hesitantly.
"Yea, I'm here," she replied.
As Lily's eyes got adjusted to the dark, she realized they were in an unfamiliar classroom. Then she glanced at James, who as staring at her. He was less than a foot away.
He looked down at her, his face serious. "Lily..."
A/N Hehe. I'll end it here. How do you like it? PLEASE REVIEW!!!!!!!!
