"Chris! What do you think I should wear with the dress?", Lily said to her
friend. Christy Potter was lying in the bed browsing a magazine that she
bought with Sirius about Puerto Rico.
"Christy! I need help!", Lily whined.
Christy sighed and said "Ok. Let your hair down in wavy curls. Wear that necklace that has a tiny lily inside and just put on a light green eye shadow and lip gloss. I still can't believe that you are gong out with my brother. Finally! After all these years that you guys were best friends he finally has the courage to ask you out and not that sleaze ball I-can- get- anyone-in-my-pants Parker."
"Ok Chris its just one night and I don't know if he likes me or if it's just to talk about some things, but I will promise you one thing."
"What I that?"
"I will tell you what happened on the date like I always do."
"Ok. Deal."
"Deal.", Lily said. She put on the finishing touches and looked at the clock. It read 7:45.
"Time to go." Lily said and the girls left Lily's room and went in opposite directions. Christy went to her room and Lily to the elevator that took her to the lobby where James would be waiting.
As Lily pressed the button that took her to the lobby she stood there thinking.
"I'm so nervous. I hope we have a good time. I hope James likes me. Wait a minute where did that thought come from? I don't like James. He is my best friend. I can't possibly like my best friend! Or can I?" Lily thought to herself but she stopped thinking about it when the elevator doors opened.
She stepped out of them and started to look around for any sigh of James but she didn't see him. She was trying to stand on her tip toes but just as she was going to stand on a chair she heard someone say "I never knew the Lily Evans would do that in a place like this. How shocking!"
Lily turned around and there was James with his lop sided grin. He was wearing a black outgoing shirt and navy blue Dockers.
"You look pretty Lily.", James murmured in her ear as he kissed her cheek.
" Thank you. You look quite handsome too."
"Well are you ready to eat?", James said as he offered her his arm.
"Ready than ever.", she said and as she took his arm James steered them to one part of the hotel she had never seen. It had a beautiful ceiling that was lighted up an showed water animals painted into it and in the floor was couches facing two or three fireplaces. They passed through that room and suddenly they were in front of the restaurant.
Good evening sir. Good evening Madam. Do you have a reservation?", the waiter asked.
"Yes. Potter reservation.", James asked while still arm in arm with Lily.
"Right this way.", the waiter said and they were leaded to a table for two that was in front of a big window that overlooked the marina of El Conquistador.
"This is a beautiful spot.", Lily said as James offered her a chair. She sat down and he pushed the chair back in gently and sat on the other side of the table.
"I'm glad you like it.", James smiled at her and she smiled back. During the dinner they talked about a lot of things like what happened during she was unconscious, memories of Hogwarts, and stuff in general. As they finished dinner James paid the check and helped Lily from her seat.
"The date isn't over yet.", James whispered in her ear which made her feel warm inside and also sent a shiver of excitement up and down her spine.
"Lead the way.", Lily said.
James steered Lily out through some doors and into a balcony. There in the balcony you could see everything that the hotel had. Lily looked up to the sky and there were a lot of stars shinning in the night.
"This is so beautiful.", Lily managed to say.
"Not as beautiful as you.", James said. Lily looked down to his face and she looked clearly into his eyes to see if he was joking. But he wasn't.
"I'm that girl you liked. I'm the girl that you liked so much that you broke up with Parker."
"Lily ever since you told her that last speech I started to like you more and more and when the terrible accident happened to you I felt I lost a part of me. I mean I felt almost like Sirius did but it was not brotherly love. At first I didn't realize it but then I did. I like you Lily Evans. A lot."
"Oh James.", Lily said. She smiled put her arms around his neck and kissed him. The kiss was sweet, long, and soulful. When they broke apart both of them were grinning. Suddenly a soft music came into the air and they put their arms around each other and started to dance. They danced for a while until Lily said that she wanted to sit down cause her feet were sore. James put one arm under her legs and the other behind her back and lifted her up. He took her to the Grand ceiling room and sat her in front of one of the fireplaces. Then James sat next to her and started stroking her hair.
"I like you a lot Lily."
"Me too.", Lily said and she put her head in his lap and closed her eyes for a few moments. James bent towards her and kissed her forehead and then stroked her hair until she went to sleep. After a while James stopped and not wanting to wake up Lily he fell asleep with her head in his lap. The young couple spent the night their sleeping and nobody bothered them.
In the morning Lily woke up and looked up. There she saw James sleeping. She sat up and to make James more comfortable she gently put his head in her lap, took off his glasses, and started stroking his hair. After a while James woke up and rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. Lily handed him his glasses and when he put them on he smiled, sat up, and drew her in for a kiss.
"Good morning.", Lily murmured in his ear.
"Good morning. How are you feeling? Did you sleep well?"
" I had a nice comfy pillow so yeah I slept well. How about you?"
"Pretty nice. What do you want to do today?"
"Well we are supposed to go sightseeing. We might go to this botanical garden in San Juan."
"Well then lets get ready. I'll wake up the boys and you wake up the girls."
"Do we announce about each other separately or together?"
"Together.", James said and hand in hand they went towards their rooms.
Lily first went to Remus and Rachel's room with James. They looked at each other grinning and decided to wake them up.
With James helping her, Lily got on the bed and started to jump up and down then she started to scream like a little girl "Mommy! Daddy! Its Cwistmas. I want to open the presents. Open presents! Open presents! Open presents! Wake up!"
"What the hell?" Remus said waking up he looked at Lily and sighed.
"Ok Lil I get the point. Wake up Rachel and get dress and meet you in your room in half an hour right?"
"Right.", Lily said then James went to Sirius's room and Lily to Christy's.
When Lily went in the room she saw Christy sleeping peacefully. She went towards her bent down and screamed in her ear "Wake up sleepyhead!"
"Jesus Christ! Lily its early!", Christy whined but she apparently also got the message like Remus did.
Lily went to her room and decided to put on a light lavender tank top with khaki shorts. Then she let her hair loose but in a sloppy bun and put on a visor. After half an hour everybody was dressed and ready to go. They got on the elevator, went to the front desk, and asked for a car to take them to the botanical garden in San Juan. While they were waiting James cleared his throat and said "Hey guys. Me and Lily have an announcement to say. We are dating."
They waited for a moment to see what they would say. James had his arm around Lily's waist and Lily was leaning into him. After three or four seconds of silence Sirius said "Finally they realize that they are meant for each other. Yeah!! Congrats lil sis and James."
"Yeah. Congrats Lily and James", Christy said jumping up and down. She went towards James and hugged him and then towards Lily and kissed her in the cheek and whispered in her ear "I told you so."
Remus said "Congratulations." And when he kissed Lily in the cheek he told her to meet her and Sirius before they got on the car.
Lily excused herself from James and followed Remus. Remus got Sirius and they went to a corner.
"What's up guys?", Lily asked.
"Lily we don't want to push you but when are you going to tell James about your transformations?", Remus said and Sirius's eyes got wide with realization.
"I need you two to be there with me. You know I can't do that alone. I know he is the only one that doesn't know but I just don't know what to say."
"Well don't worry cause I for one will be there to help you explain. In fact lets call him now.", Sirius said and he hollered for James. James jogged to them and said "What's up?"
"James we have to explain something to you.", Sirius said and lily nodded.
"James. This is not easy to say but I am an animagi.", lily said shyly. She waited for James to scream at her for not telling him sooner but when she looked up she saw James in shock and a bit of admiration in his eyes.
"James. Did you hear her?", Sirius and Remus said at the same time.
"Yeah."
"Well?", Sirius said.
"That is so cool Lily. I am so happy for you. I mean my girlfriend did that potion on her own."
"Actually I did it with my other friends. Christy and Rachel. They are animagis too. Chris is a panther and Rachel is a wolf while I am a life size fairy. One day I will show it to you if you want.", Lily said.
"Of course sweety.", James said and kissed her. As they drew apart the van came and they all got in pairs of two like always it was the same people together.
On the ride they couldn't wait to experience some of Puerto Rico's beauty.
