An hour later, James came back in, to find Lily sitting up and reading.
"You feeling better Lils?"He asked. She turned and looked at him.
"Yes, much, thank you."She said, smiling at how dirty he was.
"Practice was rough today."He said, walking over.
"Perhaps you should go take a shower."Lily suggested. James
scratched his cheek.
"Yeah, your right, be back in about 30."He said, summoning clean
robes and walking back out of the room.
After James left, Sirius walked up.
"Im really sorry."He said, taking her hand.
"Its ok, last week is in the past."She said.
"No...earlier, you.......thought I was James......then you kissed
me."He said, and she pulled her hand back.
"I did?"She asked. Sirius nodded.
"It was the fever."He added. Lily nodded. She stood up and walked
past him out of the room.
Lily walked down the hall absentmindedly.She rounded a corner and walked smack into James. He dropped the towel he was using to dry his hair, and caught her before she fell. "Hey clumsy."He said, smiling. Lily giggled and hugged him. He let her go and picked up his towel. "Want to go for a walk?"Lily asked. James smiled micheviously. "Under one condition."He said, and Lily nodded. "You hold my hand...Im afraid of the dark." He said, immitating a three year old and grabbing her arm. She laughed and so did he. "Of course I will."She said, kissing his cheek. She took his hand and they walked towards the front doors.
They walked out onto the cool, dark grounds. There was a slight breeze, which was normal for that time of year. The sun had just set, and darkness was slowly covering the area. James slid his arm around Lilys waist and they set off around the castle. "I cant believe this is our last week."Lily suddenly said. James blinked. "It is!?"He asked. "Yeah, silly."Lily answered, laughing. "Well..... crap."He said. "What?"Lily asked. "Nothing...nothing."He said, kissing her cheek. She shrugged and smiled contently. "Lets sit down."He said, and they sat down.((A/N: Duh...like shes gonna say "No I dont want to")) She leaned against him and he wrapped his arms around her. "Lily?"James asked, after a moments silence. "Hm?"Lily answered, looking up. "Im.....Im going to ask you something on the last day of school.....dont freak out, ok?"He blurted. Lily blinked. "Ok."She said simply and put her head back on his shoulder. He leaned back against a tree and closed his eyes. As he drifted to sleep, he felt a pinch on his hand, but didnt do anything.
