Hey, guys, thanks so much for all the reviews, they really made my day

remember)Chelsea____________________________________oh, and PLEASE REVIEW!
I sorta want to reach 90 reviews (though that's about impossible) but it's
my goal so PLEASE REVIEW! I live on them..

Divination passed slowly, the slightly purple haze floating around the room, making it difficult to see. Not so difficult though, that Lily didn't notice Severus staring at her. She smiled to herself. School with him around, was definitely looking better. She smiled broadly remembering the look on Potters face when she had decided to spend the class sitting with his arch rival.
"Ms Evans, is there something in your Ball that amuses you? I plead that you not take this with such a shallow attitude. This could be your future." The teacher walked away. Lily sighed and wiped her smile off before rolling her eyes at Snape, who smirked back. She may not have been laughing at her crystal ball, but she could think of some things she could do with Severus that would certainly bring a smile to her lips...(please people, get your mind out of the gutter-she's talking about pleasant things here, like taking walks- you have to remember, at this point she's never even been kissed! It's all wishful thinking)
*************************
After Divination, the rest of the day passed in a haze. At dusk clouds started to gather on the horizon, bringing with them a cool breeze, and a promise of winter to come. In the common room, lily settled down with a blanket in the squishiest armchair she could find, and opened a book. It was quite chilly, and she shivered and hunched down into her chair wishing she had worn something a little warmer. She was dressed in oh-so-cute pajama pants that had little fish on them (think Old Navy) and a white tank top that James noticed had no bra underneath it. He watched her for a moment contemplating, and made his way over. He was disturbed by her lack loyalty during the proccess of pranking a Slytherin. She really shouldn't have warned Snape about his Potion, so he deserved a little fun, right?
"Hey baby doll, are you that excited to see me?" She looked up, surprised to see him standing there. She had figured he had gotten the point that she never wanted to speak to him again after the potions incident.
"Excited? Over you? Why would you say that?" James smiled gleefully, making sure to look her up and down before concentrating on her chest. She shifted uncomfortably. A slight breeze caused her arms to rise in goosebumps.
"Your nipples are sticking out, that's all." From across the room Sirius whooped. Lily was silent for a moment, turned bright red and then slapped him across the face.
"It's COLD, you annoying, infuriating, disgusting." She stammered, "PRICK!" He smiled and sauntered off.
"Anytime you wanna, just call" he chirped over his shoulder. Lily glared at his back, her face blushing a pale crimson. James sat next to Sirius, still chuckling at his little joke.
"Dude, did you see the look on her face?" He gloated openly. Sirius was quiet, and not due only to the blonde sitting on his lap, kissing his ear.
"Are you sure that was smart, I mean, come on, you just totally embarrassed her." James rolled his eyes.
"What are you going soft on Evans now? Padfoot my friend, things have just started to get embarrassing for her. If she thinks hanging around with snape will make things -"
"So you're jealous then?" Sirius interrupted, smiling merrily. "You liiike Lily, you liike Lily" He started chanting in a singsong manner. James looked at him sarcastically.
"Oh ya, me and Evans, what a pair." (Oh the irony of it all) Sirius left it at that, but noted James eyes when Lily left the room.

After the Potter incident, Lily was fuming. That annoying, disgusting, perverted, infuriating.bastard! How dare he? Who did he think he was, why couldn't he just leave her alone? Her thoughts railed against him as she stomped her way up to the astronomy tower. She had to meet Severus to research for his theory of magic paper, but she didn't think they'd get very far she was in such an awful mood. Somehow, even the thought of his beautiful hands couldn't push the image of the infuriating Potter out of her mind.
She slammed the door shut behind her, breathing in the cool night air. She looked around and the room, sparsely furnished with a couple couches and a fireplace. The ceiling was enchanted so that it was crystal clear, perfect for viewing the winters night sky. Severus sat on a couch next to the fire, several papers jumbled on his lap. He had looked up when she stormed in, careful to let her settle herself.
"Hey." She smiled, surprised how only one word from him could improve her day. She walked over to him slowly, adding a little swing to her hips. From what she could tell, he definitely noticed. She sat, a little too close for comfort, but there wasn't a whole lot of room on the small couch he had picked.
"So what are we doing?" she asked.
"Well, in my paper..." Severus launched into the complexities of his theory. Most of it was lost on Lily, who nodded along. He was absorbed in his work ".but I think that in instigating certain levels of emotion, one can in fact, learn to control their power, and even increase it." He looked at Lily, who nodded, not quite sure of what to think. She leaned back to look at the stars. She could feel Severuses gaze on her, but then he too leaned back, their shoulders touching. She turned on her side to look at him. He smiled at her, brushing back one of her firey gold strands of hair. The beauty shining out of her eyes was entrancing. "lily" he breathed, placing his hands lightly on her waist. She moved closer to him, close enough to count the individual lashes on his eye. She closed her eyes, waiting for the kiss. Severus smiled to himself.
Things were going exactly as expected.
