Is It Love?
Chapter Eight: A Kiss and an Almost Kiss
Another Dancing lesson was held but this time McGonagal had something to say at the end.
"You will perform with your dancing partners on the Halloween ball! Therefore I request all of you to practice on your free time!!!" Lily and James weren't really happy with that decision.
"Do we have to?" James whined.
"Yes Mr. Potter"
"But professor McGonagal-" Lily whined,
"Enough!!! I don't want to hear anything from both of you!" McGonagal said angrily.
"So. we need to practice"
"Good thinking carrot head!"
"Stuff it Potter!"
"Make me Evans!"
"I don't have time for your stupid games! Meet me at the charms classroom tomorrow at 7 o'clock!"
"Whatever carrot head"
"Don't get me started idiot!"
The next day James made his way to the charm classroom. He walked in and saw that Evans was already there.
"Shell we start?" James asked.
"If you say so" Evans waved her wand and tango music filled the room.
They started dancing and got carried away with every step.
"You dance well" Lily said.
"Thank you, you too" James said and lowered her. Suddenly he felt like those beautiful green eyes were bewitching him, he felt his heart beating faster and faster.
Lily suddenly noticed how sweet he looked, especially with those warm chocolate eyes, she felt like she was melting into them. They got closer, and closer.
* What are you doing?* asked a voice in Lily's head.
* Getting ready to kiss him* another voice answered.
* But that's Potter!* the first voice said.
* So?*
* He only wants to use you like last time!*
Lily panicked and jumped out of James's grip quickly and stormed out of the room. James was puzzled.
* What just happened?* a confused voice inside his head asked.
* I almost kissed Evans but she ran away.* another voice answered.
* Holy shit!!! Did I really almost kiss Evans?*
* Only almost*
* What does it mean?*
* Nothing *
* Yeah, nothing.*
Lily, meanwhile, was running to her dorm not knowing what to do or what to think.
* Did I really almost kiss Potter?* the first voice was shocked.
* Why didn't I?* the second voice complained.
* Because you're not stupid!*
* Oh! Then why did I almost do it?*
* I am going to claim for temporary insanity!*
* Right.*
So James convinced himself that this was nothing and Lily convinced herself she had temporary insanity, everybody makes mistakes sometimes, don't they?
A few days past and neither Lily nor James told anybody about it, nor did they talk to each other about it. Things came back to normal - hating each other like always.
Lily sat on the grounds enjoying the nice breeze. She liked sitting like that, it made her relax.
"Lily!" she heard a male voice calling her name.
She turned around and saw William walking towards her.
"Hey William" she said.
He sat next to her.
"So..." she started, without knowing how to finish.
"So..." he said also.
Lily started to gather her courage for what she was going to say next.
"We have a Hogsmede trip tomorrow, and I was wandering if you like to come with me" she said, talking more to her shoes then him.
William's face looked suddenly much brighter then before.
"I would love to" he said, smiling.
"Great" she smiled.
"We should get back to the castle, it's starting to get dark." He said and got up. He pulled her gently up and hand in hand they walked back together.
Meanwhile the Marauders were sitting in their dorm. Peter was doing his homework, James and Sirius were trying to learn a new transfiguration' Remus was laying on his bed, it was a full moon last night, and he was very tired from the lack of sleep.
"Can someone help me? I don't really understand what I'm reading here." Peter said, looking very confused.
"Sure Wormtail." James sat near Peter and started explaining him.
Sirius took a break and sat near the window.
"Hey, looks like there's a new couple in Hogwarts" Sirius said excited.
"Who?" James and Peter asked interested.
"See for yourself." He pointed out to the grounds.
James sat near Sirius and looked. He saw Evans and that William walking together hand by hand.
"The ugly redhead and the stupid 'knight', typical." James said feeling angry for some unexplainable reason and got back to his book.
"I think they look cute together." Peter said. James chose to ignore that comment.
The next day Lily and William were chatting happily while walking around Hogsmead.
"That's the shrieking shack, it's the most haunted place in Britain!" Lily explained William. "It's really creepy. There's the mail office over, there you can see Zonko's"
"You really should be a tour guide Evans." said a voice behind her. She turned around and saw Potter and his gang.
"Mind your own business Potter!" she said. She was having a great time with William and she would not let Potter ruin it!
"Relax Evans, no need to get so angry." Potter said, looking like he was enjoying every second, which he was.
"Leave!" she said.
"It's a free country, I can go wherever I want to!" He said smiling.
"Fine! Come on William let's go to the Three Broomsticks and have a butterbeer."
"Ok" William said and went together with Lily to the pub.
"Come on guys lets go to Zonko's I'm running out of dungbombs." Sirius said and the Marauders made their way to their favorite joke shop.
Lily and William entered the pub and sat down in a table near the corner. Lily looked around her and saw Kathleen and Anne sitting together talking they both caught Lily's eye and winked. She also saw Emily sitting with a fifth year Ravenclaw boy. She waved at her and she waved back.
"Hallo Lily! What would you and that lovely friend of yours would like to drink?" Madam Rosmerta asked.
"Two Butterbeers please" Lily said smiling.
"Ok" Madam Rosmerta said and when she went past Lily she mumbled in her ear:
"Good catch! He's sweet!!!" Lily blushed.
William was walking Lily to the Gryffindor tower.
"Thanks, I had a great time!" William said.
"Me too" Lily said "we should do it again sometime"
"Yeah..." William said and started leaning forward. Lily came near him slowly and finally their lips touched. They kissed for a couple of seconds and then broke apart.
"I'll see you tomorrow?" he asked.
"Of course" she said smiling.
"Bye" he said and started walking down.
"Bye" said Lily. She gave the fat lady the password and went inside. She spotted her friends sitting on a big sofa and joined them.
"What's up with you?" Anne asked, seeing Lily's face.
"William kissed me..." Lily said.
"Oh..." Kathleen said.
"Did you kiss him back?" Emily asked.
"Of course!!!" Lily said.
"Who wouldn't?" Anne said.
"Don't get any ideas" Lily warned them and they all started laughing.
A/N I'm kind of depressed because one of my best friends is leaving for a few years or maybe forever to London! Not fair!!! I miss her...
