Late Nights at the Hospital Wing
When Lilly flew into the Hospital Wing Madame Pomfrey almost had a fit over James' state. She placed him in a bed in the back and diagnosed him. He had severe bruising on his ribs and back, a bruise on his temple, and his left arm was broken. Even after many protests from the team and the Marauders Madame Pomfrey would let no one in accept Lilly.
Madame Pomfrey mended his arm easily but his ribs would have to heal on his own. It had been two days since the incident and Lilly still hadn't left his side. Neither had he woken up yet. She wanted to be there when he did. No matter how many times Madame Pomfrey tried to tell her to leave, she wouldn't.
On the third day of Lilly' stay James finally woke up. Lilly woke up to see a smiling James sitting up in bed staring at her. She flew out of her chair and threw her self at him. "Oh my god your okay," she said as tears came to her eyes. James hugged her back. "Of course I am, I'm not the quiditch captain for nothin ya know." She smiled at him and hugged him tighter.
"I thought you were gonna die when you fell. I mean you just…..and you…..and…..the bludger….and." She began to sob. James' smile faltered as he stared at her. "Lilly its ok I'm here now and see nothing but bruises." "James please be more careful, I don't know what I'd do if you died. I know we don't know each other that much, but I feel very close to you. You're my best friend." a teary smile came to Lilly's face as James faltered for words. "You consider me you best friend?" James finally said. "Yes, you stood up for me, and you're the only person in the world who knows anything remotely close to how I feel." A tear fell from James' eye and Lilly pulled him into a hug. "You'll always find a friend in me Lilly Flower," James said.
The next day James was released from the hospital wing. As you all know he was smothered in questions by his friends. But Lilly stood by him the whole time which he was grateful for.
A few weeks later the shock of what happened died down finally and Hogwarts was back to normal. Accept something was brewing inside the walls of the castle. Love. Lilly wasn't sure what to do. She had mixed emotions. On one hand she wanted to tell James everything and yet she didn't want to frighten him. But she felt she was falling for him. 'He's so perfect, and sweet and kind.' She thought to herself. She sat up in bed deciding she would tell him everything. Her feelings, her secrets, and her life.
She pulled on a robe and snuck into James' dorm. Luckily he was still awake. He was sitting on his bed in a pair of flannel pajama bottoms reading a Quiditch Weekly magazine. She knocked on his door frame startling him from his trance. "Oh hi Lilly Flower what's up?" he asked placing his magazine on his bedside table and beckoning her to sit down. She walked over cautiously and sat down.
"James I have something very important to tell you," she began. Her heart was pounding in her chest and her breathing became short and raspy. "I cant take it anymore , you make me want to tell you everything about me and my life. I feel I can have no secrets from you." He listened intently, little did she know he felt the exact same way. "I have so much I want to tell you, but I need to know you wont leave if I tell you." he shook his head and she continued. "I…… I..llo…love… oh dammit I love you James. There I said it, I've only known you about a month and a half but I cant help it. You are just so perfect. Your always there for me, you care about me, and always help me. I cant think of life without you and it was tearing me apart that I couldn't tell you." They sat in silence for a minute before….
