The Flower's Story chp11
"Do all the good you can, by all the means you can, in all the ways you can, in all the places you can, at all the times you can, to all the people you can, as long as ever you can."
-John Wesley
Lily stared idly out the window. The death of her parents had come in such a blow that she just wasn't her usual self anymore. Even Sirius painting Mrs. Norris bright green didn't cheer her up. Nothing could replace them, but she was excepting it more and more with the help of her friends. James especially. They would sit in front of the common room fire for hours and hours enjoying each other's company. Every now and then James would try to start a conversation, he would fail every time and resort to tickling. He was the only one who had seen her truly smile in two months. Tasha was fed up with it.
"Lily! Wake up! Stop staring out the window and talk to us! I know this is hard for you and I know you have a lot of things to think about but can't you at least share with somebody other than James?"
Lily looked towards Tasha and saw she was desperate. Lily truly smiled at her and then leaped into a big hug.
"Thank you!" she simply said
It melted Tasha's heart.
"I have something to tell you two!" Tasha announced after the sentimental moment
"Now I'm not suppose to tell anyone about this so naturally I have to tell everyone!" She giggled
"What is it?" Molly was very curious
"Next year, there's going to be this huge dance about every other month to liven things up!"
"That often?" Lily shifted in her seat
"Yeah, what's the problem?"
"We have to find dates? Every time?" she looked befuddled
"Oh! Is that what your worried about? Please Lil, boys will be pooring over you! Too bad though." She started looking at her nails
"What's too bad?"
"Well its just too bad all those boys will be going to waist when you turn them down!"
"Who says I'll turn them down?"
"James! DO you actually think that he'll let you go with anyone but him? DO you actually think YOU"LL go with anyone but him?" She smirked looking amazingly like Sirius
Lily thought about this. Does she like James? Or is everything just the same?

"Peter your doing it wrong!" Sirius hissed
"No I'm not!" he proclaimed indignantly
"Yes you are! You sound like a clown being muffled by a horn! What do you say James?"
"Sorry Peter but Sirius is right! You are doing it wrong. Lil would you please get off your bum and help us?" James said very annoyed by his bickering friends
"Hmmm? Oh yea, sorry mate. Just sort of dozed off there." She watched Peter say the incantation for the Animagi process.
"Repeat after me Peter. 'Transformus Animagus'! Roll your tongue on that R ok?"
He tried but still sounded like a clown.
"It doesn't even matter we need so many more supplies for this thing it's ridiculous! We'll have to wait until at least the summer! Sorry Remus........."
She smiled apologetically
"It's all right! Umm...............Lily since there is only one more week of school and all, I don't want to be a bother or anything but, where are we going to stay? Since your house is.....................well you know!"
She looked dumfounded.
"I have no idea. This didn't even occur to me! What are we going to do?"
She fell into a heap on the floor
James looked around and then spoke up.
"You both can stay at my house! We have plenty of guest rooms and all! I'm sure Mum and Dad won't mind! Besides I'll have someone to keep me safe when Sirius comes over!" he looked to Sirius
"Hey! That was an accident! I didn't Mean to blow your bum up like a bubble!"
"No you meant it for my grandmum!"
They laughed.
"Do you really mean it James? That Remus and I can stay there? Even with Remus' problem?"
"I'll understand if your parent's wont l-"
"Calm down! My parents fight for the rights of the Werewolf community! They'll be happy to house one!"
Remus and Lily smiled at each other.

By the time it was time to leave Hogwarts, James' parents had already gotten all the information on Remus and Lily and were happy to have them there! They were getting off the train when Remus pulled Sirius aside and said
"You have to come over every day! I don't want to watch them snog all day long!"
Sirius and Remus both secretly knew that Lily and James fancied each other. They just didn't have the guts to say anything.
"Just owl me when they announce the wedding!" Sirius winked
An: that's all folks! I wanted to get al least something up! I' might just start a g/h fic but I don really kno how to start it. So ides would be nice please! R&R please! And no flames
