Love, Lily- 10 - Midnight Rendezvous
A brief author's note: I know I haven't been updating. I'm sorry. I've been waiting for inspiration, here it is now! I am planning to get done with this rather hastily and start another story. Thanks for being patient!
***WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS SOME KISSING.***
Lily folded her arms across her chest, jutted out her chin, and stuck out her bottom lip. "I do not have that stupid old cloak of yours!"
"LILY EVANS! Yes, you do. Hand it over!" James said, a little too loudly. Lily suddenly smiled, and stroked James's chin with her finger.
"You want it? Come and get your cloak," She said, walking out of the common room. James stared, jaw down. He wiggled his eyebrows, and hastily followed her. She stopped at the girl's dormitory, and opened the door. It was ferociously clean and empty of any other females. She quickly stepped in the room and raced to the other side of it. James slowly crept into the room and looked around.
"Close your eyes," Lily said. He did, and she quietly got out the cloak from her trunk. She put it on and whispered "Jamsie!" His eyes flew open and looked around.
"Come get me!" Lily called from somewhere in the room. James jumped up and started feeling the air around the room. From a distance, he looked rather silly.
"Where in the world are you?" he wondered out loud. He heard a giggle from over by the bathroom door and practically flew over there. He swung his arms out and caught hold of something silky, and pulled it off. He found her, finally! She put her arms around him in a tight embrace.
"You found me!" she exclaimed in her quiet voice. She took in his scent, masculine and chocolaty. He kissed her on the lips, and she kissed him back with quite a force. The kiss turned into one much deeper, and his tongue slipped into her mouth. It searched her mouth all over and she moaned with delight. She returned the favor, but suddenly stopped.
"Gotta go!" she called. ***
"Lily, where have you been?" Arabella asked loudly. Lily stifled a giggle.
"Just around, you know how it goes.." Lily said.
"You look a mess!" Bella exclaimed. She was right, too! Lily looked down. Her clothes were rumpled up. She felt her head. Her bright red hair was all messy. She grinned.
"Oh well! So, what's been happening?" Lily said as she tugged at her blue-jean skirt, trying to straighten it out.
"Sirius Black let off a Dungbomb right outside the Slytherin dungeons. He claimed he didn't do it, but he did. Lucius Malfoy looked about ready to beat the holy Knuts out of him!" Arabella talked fast and excitedly. "Remus asked me out! And I've been waiting all day for you, so we could go to Hogsmeade!"
"Oh, sorry Bella. I didn't notice the time!" Lily apologized quickly, but grabbed her purse. They soon reached the streets of Hogsmeade, and set off.
James walked to his dormitory, carrying his cloak over his back and grinning broadly, but also wondering why Lily had left. He dismissed the thoughts as he entered the common room and was swarmed by his two best friends.
"Prongs, where have you BEEN?" Sirius said, in a booming voice. He clapped him on the back in a brotherly fashion. "I have so much to tell you."
"I've been.around." James said quickly. Sirius nodded.
"I let off a dungbomb next to the Slytherin dungeons, and Lucius Malfoy almost socked me one, bloody git he is. I explained to him that the dungbomb didn't do one bit of good, and that it already smelled bad out there. You should have seen his face! Remus asked Arabella out, didn't you, old friend!" Sirius said, in one breath. Remus nodded vigorously. James laughed. His friends were great!
"I've been wandering around, doing nothing all day. Lucius deserved it. And good for you, Remus! She's a good match for you!" James said. He flipped himself on his bed and started reading a magazine.
"Oh yeah, and Prongsie."
"Yeah, Sirius?" James wondered.
"You've got lipstick all over your face."
"Thanks, Sirius," James said dully.
"Let's start here, Lil!" Arabella said cheerily. Lily followed her into Gladrags Wizard Wear, Hogsmeade. It was springtime, and the colors were light and fabrics breezy.
"Oh, Bella, lookit this robe! It's beautiful! Hold on and I'll try it on!" Lily was holding up a thin, breezy silk robe. It had a white background with swirls of pink and orange. She came out and posed. Arabella nodded.
"Perfect! You should get it!" Arabella said enthusiastically. Lily changed into her normal clothes and threw the robe on the floor, meaning she would later buy it. Arabella saw a robe with blue, purple, and green polka dots and tried it on. She gained a thumbs-up from Lily, and the pile grained another dress. Lily sauntered over to the cloak aisle. She looked and looked through what seemed to be hundreds of cloaks, until she found what she was looking for. An emerald green cloak, with swirls embroidered onto it. The fastener was a green stone for a button. It matched Lily's eyes perfectly, and replaced the old brown cloak se had been wearing on chilly spring days. She looked at it once more. Arabella and she stepped up to the salescounter and purchased the clothing. The girls stepped into one more store, Madame Anne's Accessories. Arabella bought some pink lipstick and glitter hairpotion, and Lily bought a candle shaped like a cat, and some eyeshadow. They stepped out of the store, and eventually made their way back to the castle, shopping bags lining their arms.
James put the cloak over himself and stepped out of the portrait hole, winking cunningly at the Fat Lady. She smiled and winked back. James chuckled, but then hushed. He crept along, but saw a shadow on the second floor. It was the shape of a human. He looked around to see what was producing the shadow and saw a sleepy-eyed Lily in a dark-green cloak.
"Lily! What are you doing here?" James inquired. Lily looked up, alarmed.
"W-w-who's there?" she asked. James laughed at himself. He forgot he had the cloak on.
"It's James."
"Oh. Well I was trying to find the kitchens." Lily explained. James whisked her away and no sooner, they were at a large painting of a bowl of fruit.
"What in the world?" Lily said to her self. James tickled the pear, and the painting swung open. The house elves crowded around them, looking pleased.
'Master James, back again! What will it be tonight?" one asked.
"How about four butterbeers, some cake, and two apples?" James suggested. They hurried away, and James seated himself at a small table. Lily sat down, following his actions. The house elves sat down the food, and Lily took out the candle, for it was dark, even in the huge kitchen. She lit it, and James laughed.
"You never know when they come in handy," Lily said. James nodded, and took a big bite of cake. Lily bit into her apple.
"The year's almost over," Lily stated, trying to make conversation.
"Yeah. Then seventh year.time goes fast." James replied. Lily picked up a fork and started eating her cake. It melted in her mouth.
"What do you want to do, when you graduate?" Lily asked.
"I'm not sure. be an Auror, a professional Quidditch player. something like that," he said, shrugging.
"Oh." Lily took a sip from her butterbeer, warming up.
"I want to grow up, have a family, get a decent job, you know how it goes," she stated. James nodded. He cleared his throat and stood up. Lily stood up and blew out the candle.
"Want me to walk you back?" James asked, shyly.
"Yeah," Lily said. He put the cloak over them both. Lily was standing right next to James. He was so warm and muscular, tall and lean. They soon arrived at the portrait hole. But the Fat Lady was asleep! Lily poked her on the shoulder, hard. She woke up finally, and swung open with great force. The two teenagers peeled the cloak off, and walked to the 6th year hall.
"Well, I guess we better be off to bed.." Lily said.
"Yeah.."
"Well, I'll see you tomorrow? And good luck with the game," Lily wished him. They kissed each other and let go. Lily laid down on her bed and thought about the day, eventually falling asleep.
