Author: I do not own anything in this chapter including (some) characters, (most) words, (many) phrases.

SORRY! I forgot to update this chapter on Saturday. I was busy eating Halloween candy…but I got braces…so I couldn't eat some of it… replacing the word some with most, and replacing the word most with some… think about it.

=Chapter 20=

It was the next day. "Ooh~" Was the first words that James muttered. It appeared that he drunk to his success a tad bit too much.

"You could say that again," James heard Sirius say, "AH MY EYES!"

"Don't try to open them," Remus sighed, "It'll only burn them."

After adjusting to the sunlight, James got up and looked around, "Where is everyone? What time is it?"

"I don't know," Peter answered, "I don't even remember much in what happened last night!"

"Neither do I," James, Remus, and Sirius answered simultaneously.

"Let's go down to eat breakfast…or lunch… or whatever time it is," Remus said getting up, and then helping Sirius and Peter to their feet. He headed for James, but James stopped him.

"I think I'll just go take a shower first. I'm not very hungry." James answered. After the three left, James got a towel, a new pair of robes and headed strait for the Perfects bathroom. He didn't feel like walking all the way to the Heads' bathroom.

After choosing the blue bubbles- he thought pink bubbles were a little queer- he stripped down and made a nice cannonball into the pool of water. Resting a bit, he heard a familiar female voice say:

"Enjoying yourself?"


He looked up to see Lily looking back down at him. That's when everything came back to him. The sleeping, the eavesdropping, and the kiss (yes, she did indeed kiss him).

"Lily…I-I-I-" James was now shocked at himself. He never got speechless for any girl. Usually, he was suave around all of the giggly little creatures-except for this one, that is.

"You-You-You?" Lily asked, raising an eyebrow in amusement. "Whatever!" She chuckled quietly to herself and looked at him. They stared at one another before Lily broke the silence, "Well? Aren't you going to make some space?"

It was then did James realize that Lily was wearing a towel-a red fluffy towel. He moved to the side thinking to himself: What's she up to? There's a big space, and she chooses to sit next to-

His thoughts were cut off when Lily moved closer to him, "Last night was fun," She said, "But I want to experience something once more." She looked up into his eyes. Their faces moved slightly towards each other, and then-

"KINKY DREAMS!"

James's eyes shot open. He looked strait up, to see he was surrounded by his best friends. Feeling disappointed that it was only a dream, he got up. "What the hell were you doing?"

"Well," Sirius thought, "I was going to wake you up before I heard a, 'Lily…I-I-I-'" He burst out laughing, "Come on. Let's go eat lunch!"

"I'll catch up," James said. The three other just shrugged and left the room. James changed into a new pair of robes and headed downstairs. Should I tell Lily about the eavesdropping?

Yes

Right now, he was having a fight with his conscience.

Why should I?

Because you love her!

Who said?

I DID!

You're not the boss of me.

Actually, now that I think about it… I AM!

Shut up.

You shut up!

"You shut up!"

"Huh?" James turned heel to see Lily looking up at him. "I didn't say anything!"

"No," James said, "I was having a fight with myself." They looked at each other for a few seconds before Lily began to laugh. She was beginning to laugh so hard, she grabbed her stomach. "What's so funny?" he asked.

"You're having a fight with yourself!" Lily said through her laugher, "Do you even know how silly that sounds?!"

She began to laugh again. A smile began to form at James's lips as he looked at the amused Lily. Her laugh was contagious.

After a minute or two, Lily sighed, "Have you even eaten yet?"

"No," James shook his head.

"Come on, let's go eat something. Right now, the quidditch team is practicing by themselves. You can go join them as soon as you eat," She said, grabbing James so he wouldn't run off to the Quidditch fields.

As they walked to the Great Hall, James noticed that Lily was growing more and more. Her hair now fell down to her elbows, her eyes that used to always have a tint of uncertainty in them, now always looked strait forward, as if she were ready to face anything that came to her. Also, her height was growing as well. She was now up to his nose, before she was down to his shoulders. "You're growing," He said.

Lily looked at him, "What?" she asked in almost an angry tone. He didn't understand why.

"You're hair grew as well as your height," He answered.

She sighed, "Is that what you meant. I thought you were talking about…" She pointed to…the twins.

Indeed, her curves grew as well, "I didn't notice that."

"I see," Lily paused, "You can stop looking at them now."

"I choose not to," He answered, grinning cheekily now.

"JAMES POTTER! WHERE ARE YOUR MANNERS?!"

The two teenagers looked up to a girl with coal black hair that was tied into a tight French bun. A pinch of freckles were sprinkled across her nose, her deep green-almost raven blue- eyes looked like darts as they looked at James, although they were hidden behind a pair of glasses.

"NOT ONLY ARE YOU SO RUDELY LOOKING AT THIS GIRL, BUT YOUR POSTURE IS HORRIBLE!"

She hollered that sentence so it bounced off the halls.

James grew at least half an inch as he straitened his back and looked strait forward. He put his arms to his side and said not a word. He looked like a statue.

Lily looked at the 21 year old before her and asked in a small voice, "I'm sorry, but may I ask who you are?"

The Black haired woman looked at Lily and paused before answering, "Natalie Potter. James's sister."
