A/N: this stupid document manager won't let me do points of ellipsis so if
it looks really choppy I'm sorry. what probably happened is that it changed
the points of ellipsis to a period. does anyone know how to make it stay?
Also does anyone know how do make italics and stuff stay? Because when I do
it on word, it just changes it back to normal. help please!
This is L/J. just sumthin I wrote in my summer school class because it was sooo boring hehehe. please r/r!
The Ring
Straightening her dress robes, Lily Evans smiled at her reflection in the mirror.
'Perfect,' she thought. 'Now I just need my ring. Oh, where is it? Oh, here it is.'
Lily slipped on her bewitched ring. She had put a spell on it to glow a blood red when she danced with whoever was going to be her next date. She hoped it was Peter.
***At the ball***
Lily laughed at her friend's joke. She was having a great time with her friends, and had danced quite a lot with some very good-looking seventh- years (who were a year older than she was).
"Hey, Evans! Wanna dance?" called a voice.
Lily looked through the crowed toward the voice, then groaned. A raven- haired boy with glasses and hazel-brown eyes was looking back at her, into her own emerald-green eyes.
"If I won't go out with you, what makes you think I'm going to dance with you?" she asked James Potter.
"Aww. come on, Evans! Have a little fun!"
"Fine." said Lily grudgingly as James's eyes lit up. "One dance. And ONLY one dance."
Lily went out on the dance floor and put her arms around James's neck, as the band had just started a slow song.
'He probably timed this to the second,' thought Lily. The pair danced in silence until Lily noticed a bright red glow coming from behind James's head. Lily frowned, not remembering about her ring. She shifter her hands and gasped. The garnet radiance was coming from her ring. She pulled away from James as she gasped again, and ran out of the Great Hall.
"Lily!" called James. "Lily! Where are you going? Lily! Evans!" but Lily was already up the stairs and heading toward the Gryffindor dormitories.
**********
'I'm going to go out with that- that- him?' thought Lily miserably. She knew she could try and defy the course of nature, but in the long run could never change what the ring had told her. 'But- I- hate him-don't I?' Lily kept repeating these thoughts in her head, that she hated James and that she knew she could never change her destiny. Finally, she fell asleep on top of her covers, still in her dress robes, her bed hangings still pushed up against the walls.
**********
"Lily. Lily! Wake up! Come on, we're going to be late!" said a voice in her ear. Her best friend Didi (A/N: pronounced Dee Dee. just felt like spellin it like that lol) was waking her up, and they were about to be late for their first class-Potions with Professor Bluefin. Professor Bluefin was nice enough, but gave anyone who was late a detention, so Lily jumped out of bed and hurried to get out of her dress robes and into her school uniform. (A/N: yeah yeah I kno the balls are always on Fridays but wutever)
***********
"Sleep well, Evans?" a voice softly said in her ear.
Lily turned around to see James looking at her. "Perfectly fine, thank you," she replied coolly.
"What do you say that we go to Hogsmeade together next Hogsmeade weekend?" asked James, still whispering.
Lily gulped. She started to say no. but then all of a sudden James's boyish grin, unruly hair, and chiseled body started to nag at her conscience. She thought, "Here's the time."
"James. normally I wouldn't like to. But my ring glowed red yesterday when I danced with you. which is why I ran away. But since I know I can't change my fate, this time I'm going to say yes."
James smiled and punched the air with his fist, but looked confused nonetheless. Lily could see she was going to have to explain.
"See. I put this charm on my ring to glow red whenever I danced with whoever was going to be my next date. You can't change what the spell tells you. And. the deeper red it is, the longer you stay with that person. With you. I think it was just about the deepest red it could get."
James's eyes widened but he grinned. "Looks like you're stuck with me forever, Evans. maybe I'll be nice and start calling you Lily! Ha ha ha!"
'Did I just say that aloud?' Lily asked herself. 'Dam*.'
***A year later***
"Hey Lily. You know that I love you, right?" asked James, as his head rested on her head, which was on his shoulder.
"Yeah. and you know I love you, right?" replied Lily.
"Of course Lil.oh my god I love you so much." James sat up suddenly. "Lily. I want to ask you something. We've only been together a year, yet we love each other so much. Why don't we. we. just. promise to stay together?" He conjured up a plain diamond ring. "Lily. will you promise to be engaged to me?"
"Oh my god," said Lily softly. Then she grinned. "How could I say no?"
James laughed softly and slipped the ring on her finger. "This one won't glow," he said as they leaned in toward each other. smiling at the little thing that had brought them together.
AN: Ok so that was kinda lame. actually now that I've written a few other things I think most of these dumb stories are lame and don't make sense. *sigh* o well read and review anyway ppl!
