It was the next night, and Lily was helping James with Charms in the Transfiguration classroom.
"Ok, try the levitating spell, Wingardium Leviosa," said Lily.
"Hey, I know that, we learnt that in our first year," complained James.
"Yeah, well you made me turn a fork into a spoon so I'm going to get you to do this," Lily muttered.
"If you could call it a spoon," James accidently said.
Ooops...why the hell did I say THAT?!
Lily just glared at him, then said as sweetly as possible in a sarcastic way, "Now, remember the nice wrist movement we've been learning a few years ago."
James looked embarassed.
Lily took his wrist and made him do the 'swish and flick' movement that goes with the spell.
James felt warmth surge through his body when her soft skin touched him, he never felt better in his entire life.
Lily felt safe when she held his wrist, she felt wonderful. She quickly let go of his wrist when she had finished the 'swish and flick' movement.
There was silence for a few seconds.
"Now say Wingardium Leviosa," Lily said, breaking the awkward silence.
James picked up his wand, "Wingardium Leviosa!"
The feather blew up.
Lily giggled.
She looks really nice when she smiles, not that mocking smile that is always saved for me, the pretty smile that she shows when she's happy.
James cleaned his face on his robes.
"Ok, what was wrong with that?" James asked, frowning.
"You said it with too much force," explained Lily, who was still smiling, "You have to say it gently, after all, levitating means floating..."
Lily gave James another feather.
"Try again," she said.
James swished and flicked his wand, saying 'Wingardium Leviosa' in a much gentler voice.
The feather began to hover, higher, higher, moving slowly.
Lily smiled again, "Good."
James smiled as well, he made the feather hover back down onto the table.
"Let's try and make objects feather-light," said Lily.
"Ok..." James said, looking slightly worried.
"You say, Nemear Achropelias," explained Lily.
"Nemear Achropelias," James waved his wand at the book, and then picked it up.
"Still heavy," he reported.
"Well try again," Lily said, brushing her red hair behind her shoulders.
James stared at her hair for a moment, realising how beautiful it was.
Then he snapped back to earth and cast the spell again. It didn't work.
He cast it again, and again, and again. Finally the book was lighter.
"Yay, you did that," Lily smiled. Her brilliant green eyes seem to sparkle.
"Is that all I'm going to learn?" James asked, as Lily turned to leave.
"Oh come on James," Lily paused as she realised she called him James, instead of Potter, "It's eleven thirty, we have to go to bed."
She left.
James ran to catch up with her.
The walk to the Gryffindor common room was silent, and the escape to their dorms was awkward.
Before James fell asleep, his last thoughts were how pretty Lily was, and how she made him feel happy.
Before Lily drifted off to sleep, her last thoughts were how cute James was, and how he made her feel safe.
Little did they know this would bring them together.
