Ok, here comes the corrected part. You don't have to review this, but if you want to, you can do it *g*.
Thanks to Habile_gal for correcting the major mistakes!!!
After the first evening you couldn't notice any tenseness between Lily
and James, they even became something like friends. Lily was happy about
that; she hadn't come to the camp to quarrel with an Ex-boyfriend. She also
liked talking to James and Sirius, they often had similar interests and
opinions.
Kevin, who was her boyfriend now (he had asked her the morning after they
did get caught by James), didn't seem to be very happy about that.
"Hrmpf", Lily said to the parkour she just had finished.
This camp seemed to be a joke. She didn't know how some of the other pupils could have
serious problems with the tasks. They didn't need more knowledge to
pass the classes then they would need for forth year DADA-lessons at Hogwarts!
To Lily it seemed like the teachers wanted to bore them to death. Though
Sirius did try to make the lessons more humorous with some jokes and
stories.
Lily turned to Kevin, who stood a few meters away. He was watching a
girl as she tried not to be hurt by a very big dog with three heads.
Within a second Lily was at his side with arm slung around his waist.
He just continued staring at the girl.
Lily sighed. Kevin hadn't been very good in DADA in school and also had problems with the rules of the camp. He had failed the parcour, a big Blast-Ended Srewt had nearly blown him apart.
Lily had heard how Sirius had shouted at him after that. He had said that
the camp wasn't there for guys to get as many girls as he could, it was
there for becoming and arour.
She could understand why Kevin was angry.
"Hey, still angry because of Sirius?" She asked him.
He shook his head. "No, I know he doesn't like me." He shrugged.
"Although I dunno why. Well, do you know that James came to me after
the last lesson and told me that I shouldn't lie to you only to get you in
my bed?"
Lily giggled. "I didn't know that James sees himself as my big
brother."
Kevin looked at her. "I don't think he wants to be your brother. He
seems to be jealous that some one else than him got the girl he fancies."
Lily stared at him in surprise. But then she began to laugh. "That was
a good joke, Kevin! James fancies me... that's funny."
Kevin only looked at her, shrugged and put an arm around her shoulder.
"As long as you don't fancy him..."
In the Evening Lily laid on her bed and tried to write a letter to a friend from school. But after a while she put the things away and turned around.
"Polly?" The small witch looked at Lily. They had become a good friends
during the first three days of the camp.
"Yes? What do you want?"
"Do you think James has... other feelings for me than friendship?"
Polly giggled.
"Ahhh, don't tell me you like him! That's cute... But what about
Kevin?"
Lily threw a pillow at her roommate.
"Kevin is my boyfriend and will be my boyfriend in future. He just
mentioned that James behaves like he fancies me."
Polly giggled again. "If you say so... no, not again a pillow! Please! I
will believe you!
"Thank you... OK, back to James... I dunno. You know, he and you are
often seen together, you talk a lot, he eats his dinner at our table... well,
perhaps because he and my cute little boyfriend are good friends...
"But I don't know. I can ask Sirius if you like."
Lily's face got red. "No... no, you don't have to, I just thought about
it...", she mumbled.
Polly grinned and made a mental mark to ask Sirius about this thing.
After the lights had gone out Lily lay awake in her bed a for long
time, thinking about her days at the camp. It had confused her to see James
again.
They had broken up shortly before his graduation, they had been a
couple for more than a half year. He had snogged with another girl, the girl who
had called herself Lily's best friend at this time.
He had said he was sorry, but she couldn't trust him any more, so they had broken apart.
It had hurt every time she had seen him, which she tried to cover by insulting him.
She had been happy when he had graduated and left her world.
She had three other boyfriends after that, but it hadn't been the same,
they hadn't been like James, she had not been able talk to them about
everything, or share a few silent moments in love together.
She had thought it was only because he had been her first love and because she had made so much of the experiences with him.
When she had graduated she thought she would forget him, but it now she realized she hadn't.
She didn't know if she still loved him or it was still her hurt pride that confused her. But one thing was sure, she couldn't be his girlfriend again, even if she loved him. It would hurt too much if he were to betray her again.
At the same time in the room Sirius looked curiously at his roommate.
"James?"
James, who had been staring at the ceiling with an odd expression on his
face turned to look at him. "Hm?"
His best friend grinned. "Thinking of Lily?"
James' face flushed. "No", he lied.
Why did Sirius know him so well?
Sirius grin widened and he said:
"I know you lie. Shall I ask Polly, what our Flower-girl thinks of
you?"
James sighed. "I don't think that would be a good idea. You know, Lily
and I are only friends, nothing more. OK, we have been lovers, but that's
more than two years ago. And if Lily knows that I want to know what she thinks
about me, she would guess I love her again. She would be afraid and turn
away from me again."
Sirius grinned. "Ohhh, and you wouldn't want that, I know... Well, but
if I were you I wouldn't talk like that. I would try to convince her that
I've changed, because you only have one and a half weeks left together... if
that Kevin remains her boyfriend, she perhaps will try to get another job,
because he isn't good as an auror or something like that..."
James laughed, but it sounded a bit forced. "I don't think Lily is so
dumb!"
Sirius shrugged. "I don't know much about girls, but I know that they
always act in ways that I never expect."
