The Famous Marauders

Chapter 19: Did James kiss her?

Six hours, a teeth whiting, facial, makeover, and manicure later, Lily stood next to Mary gazing at her reflection in the mirror.

"Oh my gosh" She said in disbelief

"Don't you feel fabulous?" Mary said putting her arms around Lily's shoulders

"Wow" Lily never took her eyes off her reflection.

She still looked like Lily; her hair was shorter reaching the top of her shoulders mixed with long layers, and a face frame (my new hair cut). They used a growing spell to increase her short nails and applied a French manicure.

The muggle facial opened her pores and made her skin smother. Near the end of her treatment the witch waved her wand to lightly tanned Lily's creamy skin.

Lily felt great, so relaxed and happy. Shortly after thanking Mary repeatedly, she met with Kristy, Taylor, Kathy, and the Slytherin girl, Amy.

"You guy looked great," Lily said as they finished paying,

Kristy: I bet the guys are just dieing to see us

Lily: I can't wait to see James, no mater he probably wont notice the difference

Kathy: He's a guy what do you expect

Taylor: we should be getting back to the castle

Kristy: yeah, we can play exploding snaps or pick out what were going to ware for Valentines Day

Amy: No we can't

Taylor: (showing a piercing glare) why?

Amy: because. because. Lily still needs to get James a Valentines Day present

(Amy smiled nervously at the girls)

Lily: yeah, I have to stay you guys can go if you want

Amy: I'll stay with you

Kristy: if she stays, we all stay

Taylor: Besides you never told us the story about you making James suffer

Lily: ok, but lets talk about over a butterbeer, I skipped breakfast

The girls entered the extremely crowded Three Broomsticks

Amy: Hey, can I say something if you promise not to get mad

Taylor: (finally trying to be nice) we don't get mad we get even

Kristy: To true

Amy, Kathy, and Lily laughed; Kristy gave Taylor a high five.

Amy: can I talk to you alone for a second, alone?

Taylor: yeah sure, Kristy can you get me a butterbeer we'll go find a table

Amy and Taylor made there way to a table in the middle of the room

Taylor: what?

Amy: you promised not to get mad right

Taylor: that depends, are you going to insult any of us

Amy: no it's nothing like that

Taylor: then shot

Amy: well. Lily's going out with James Potter right

Taylor: Yeah, so

Amy: then why is he kissing that girl over there

Amy pointed toward a table, in a dark corner. Taylor's eyes grew wide with shock as she saw James making out with a girl Taylor had never seen before, her blond hair fell down her sides. He whispered something in her ear that made her giggle, while hitting him lightly.

Taylor could feel a lump in her throat, as she watched them. Kristy, Kathy, and Lily joined them at the table; Lily slid a Butterbeer to Amy, while Kristy gave one to her very pale sister

"Taylor, sweetie are you ok," she asked

Taylor couldn't speak, her mouth silently opened and closed, with out so much as a whisper

"Taylor" Lily said shaking her

"I. Lily. James. No, No, No, I can't believe it." Taylor scratched out of her throat

"What happened" Kristy said holding up her shocked sister

"Lily, look behind you" Amy answered in a low voice

Lily turned, instantly spotting James and the blond girl. The others saw Lily's eyes flash, as she rose from the table, and made her way to James.

"This seat taken" Lily said calmly, pulling James lips of the girl

"Lily, it's not what it looks like, I thought you would be at the salon all day" James said

"So let me get this strait, you think it's ok to make out with another girl if I'm not around" Lily could feel her blood boil

"It's not-" James started

"James, we can't hide it any more, sorry hun, but you just weren't cutting it"

Lily's eyes got huge, as she fell backwards

'POW'

Taylor had just punched the girl across the face, as Kristy and Kathy picked Lily up and carried her out of The Three Broomsticks. After hitting the girl Taylor ran out behind the others. The girls rushed Lily two the portrait of the fat lady. What the girls didn't know was Crab and Goyle followed them, instead of what we all thought they would be doing, eating.

"I'm a ravenclaw, I can't go up there" Taylor stated

"Yeah, go tell Remus, I'm sure he can help" Kristy said holding up the unconscious Lily

"Ok" Taylor said

As soon as Kristy, Kathy, and Lily vanished from view, Taylor felt two very strong arms lift her from the ground.

"What the hell--" Taylor started as one of the boys covered her mouth with his other sweaty hand.

"Malfoy wanted this one, right?" One said spilling food crumbs down his shirt

"Don't know, but she sure is a heavy"

Taylor thought 'heavy are you kidding me, have you seen yourself'

Un successfully, Taylor kicked, bit, and squirmed to try to get loose. The boys brought her down to the dungeons, only to face none other then Malfoy and Narcissa. Taylor tried to scream, but one of the boys had his hand clamped tightly over his mouth.

~UP STAIRS, WALKING DOWN THE CORRIDOR~

James: you don't think Narcissa was serious about Lily do you:

Remus: don't know

Peter: maybe

Sirius: you guys are all thick, Narcissa is tricky and slimy don't you see that she'll do anything, and I mean anything, to break you and Lily up!

James: Sirius, are you, OK

Sirius: why? Because I know she's planning something that's going to ruin the only day I'm probably ever going to see Kathy again

James patted Sirius's back, "don't worry, you'll figure something out"

"Lets just get to the common room, before Narcissa can try anything"

"Yeah" Peter agreed

"What's that?" Remus said. He pointed to hunched over girl, wincing in pain, with her BLOND hair falling over her face.

"Oww" the girl winced again

"Are you ok?" James said helping the girl up

"I think so" The girl leaned against James body

"Thanks for helping me" The girl said

"What happened"?

"I think I twisted my ankle"

"Want me to take a look"

"You're so sweat, what can I ever do to repay you"

"Erm. lean on Peter instead of me" James said wishing she wasn't so close.

"Of course but let me repay you first" The girl said graving James neck and pulling him in to a deep kiss

"JAMES" Lily cried from the top of the staircase, With Kristy and Kathy by her side.

"See you later, lover boy," the girl whispered in James ear before running off

"Lily, it's not what it looks like"

"That's what you said earlier and two think I let them talk me into actually forgiving you, after you humiliated me at the Three Broomsticks!"

"What?" James said confused, because he had spent most of the day with Sirius at Quidditch practice.

"You cheated on me today and got caught twice, how the heck am I supposed to trust you?"

"Lily I wasn't at the Three Broomsticks"

"Right, and I bet you weren't kissing that girl just now, were you" Lily stormed back to her room with Kristy close behind her

"I can see your going to need step five now" Kathy said leaning against the stairs railing

"What" the marauders questioned

"On my plan remember, Remus do you still have my parchment?"

"Right here" Remus pulled the parchment out of his bag

"You believe me" James looked at Kathy with disbelief

"You said it wasn't you at the Three Broomsticks, end of story"

"You really believe me," He repeated

"Yeah"

"Why"

"James am I normal?"

"No"

"Then don't worry about it"

"Why do you believe me? And I know it's not just because I said I didn't."

"Ok, the kiss was different"

"What, I don't get it"

"Just now the girl forced you to kiss her, at the Three Broomsticks there was passion it was different, that and the whole fact that Stupid Cupids can see what's in your heart" Kathy blushed

"So, what exactly you mean by passion" Sirius said taking her in his arms, and kissing her deeply

Remus counted to ten in his head

"I think we should work on the plan now"

"Yeah" Kathy pulled apart, smiling broadly

"Moony, you suck" Sirius said as he felt his lips tingle lightly

"If you want a happy ending to this story you have to work on it," Kathy said waving a wand around the parchment

"Ok, boys follow the directions exactly, don't you dare, change a thing. I'll see if I can knock some since into Lily now, but don't forget to be on the look out for Narcissa and Malfoy, they might have something else up their sleeve. James be very careful and if you ever see another girl like that do yourself a favor and let Peter handle it"
