Okay, here is the second chapter I promised you. It might not be very long because I don't have a lot of time.

WHITE IVY- I hope the last chapter didn't make it seem like anyone was pining after somebody else. You said you didn't want anyone to be, but if it seems like anyone is please tell me and I will try to fix it, but I might not be able to be if it already exists in the story. Did that make sense?

Disclaimer- I own nothing except for the things that are not owned by J.K. Rowling.

Lily and James came back from their walk soaking wet. They had gotten into a snowball fight with each other and soon had other students joining them. They went to the common room and sat in front of the fireplace, warming themselves up. They sat in the common room until it was time for dinner. They had a wonderful meal and went back to the common full and tired. They said their goodnights and went to bed.

The next morning Lily woke up to the sound of James yelling, "WAKE UP EVERYBODY, IT IS CHRISTMAS." Lily put on her slippers and walked down to the common room. James looked up at her and said, "Happy Christmas Lils." "Happy Christmas Jams," replied Lily. "Come open your presents Lils," said James, "it's going to take you a LONG time. I think you have some admirers." Lily looked at her pile and gasped. It WAS going to take her a long time. Her pile of presents was at least six feet wide and at least four feet tall. She looked at James pile and said, "Yours is big, too." "Yeah it is," said James, "But most of them are from my parents, I don't have as many admirers as you do. Lily laughed and began opening her presents. They each had an assortment of different things, but many things they got from admirers were the same. Lily got an assortment of clothing from her parents, her favorite being an emerald green formal dress. Lily wondered why she would get something like that when she was only eleven years old. There was a note attached to it that said,

We got a letter saying you needed one of these for something that will be announced after Christmas break.

Love- Mum and Dad.

Lily also got some books and new quills and ink from her parents. They gave her a variety of ink colors so she could have different choices. She got a book on Charms from Jenna and an assortment of candies and books from the other girls. Remus gave her a very pretty, expensive looking, bracelet. It would match perfectly with the dress her parents gave her. Sirius gave her a Necklace that matched the bracelet. Both boys gave her a note. Each note said the same thing,

You'll always be the Flower for me.

"hmm, they both think alike don't they?" Lily thought to herself, laughing silently.

From Clark, Lily got some Lotion and Perfume. She got many boxes of chocolates from admirers and lots of Jewelry also. They obviously wanted to impress her, because some of the Jewelry looked VERY expensive. After about two and a half hours of opening up gifts Lily finally got to the very last one. It was from James. It had a note attached to it that said,

Lily-

I got this present for you a long time ago, but I just had it fixed last night so you will always remember what we said yesterday. I hope you like it.

-James

Lily slowly unwrapped the gift wondering what it could be. The gift was in a box. She opened the box and pulled out a beautiful necklace. It was an Emerald colored Lily. It had a diamond in the middle of the Lily and it was on a silver chain. She turned over the necklace to find the words, Lily and James: Friends Forever engraved into the back of it. "James," gasped Lily, "This is beautiful. Thank you." "You're Welcome Lily, I thought it would go with your eyes." "Yes it will," said Lily, "Will you put it in for me?" "Sure." said James. Lily lifted up her hair and James put on the necklace. It looked beautiful on Lily. "I'm never going to take this off James," said Lily, "I'm always going to wear it to remind me of our friendship." "That means so much to me Lily. Thank you," said James. "You are very welcome," replied Lily.

*******************************************

The rest of the day was fun for both Lily and James. They stuffed themselves with candy, planned some pranks that they could do on the Slytherins after the break was over, and went exploring in parts of the school they had never been in before.

The Christmas Feast that night was wonderful. They had a variety of meats, potatoes, rolls, vegetables, and salads. For desert they had cake, pudding, cookies, ice cream, and many other wonderful things.

When James and Lily got back to the common room they both sat on a couch near the fire to talk for awhile before they went to bed. They talked about how wonderful the feast was and what they were going to do for the rest of the break. The fire began dying down and Lily started to shiver. James noticed this and he pulled his cloak around her so she could feel some of his body warmth. "Better?" he asked her. "Much," replied Lily sleepily, "Thanks Jams." "You're welcome Lils," replied James just as she fell asleep, cuddled up next to him. Not knowing what to do, James settled onto the couch with Lily cuddled up by him. He tried to stay awake, so he could take Lily back to her dorm if she woke up, but he couldn't do it and he was soon asleep, too, forgetting all about the beautiful girl who was cuddled next to him sleeping.

Well there was that chapter. Sorry it was short. Like I told you, I didn't have a lot of time to write it. The next one will be longer.
