A/N:- Ok, remember this is an adaptation on the movie, it won't be exactly the same, sorry it's taken a long time to update, I'll try and update more often.
"Oh my god, this apartment is amazing." Lily said as she walked into the penthouse apartment in Krushen Close. The place was a huge for an apartment. It was decorated in light colours and looked quite modern.
"I have to say that Hamon has done well." Cara said happily. She took off her hat and put it on a hat stand. The apartment was fully furnished and as Lily sat in one of the sofas she could tell it was good quality furniture. Cara went to the window, the view was very good, she could see all the people walking around below and she could just see Gringotts.
"I'm getting this bedroom." Lily said as she walked out of one of the rooms.
"I get to chose first as I'm the one who owns the apartment." Cara said.
"Please," Lily said, "You get to chose all the guys." Cara smiled.
"Alright then. You get to choose what room." Cara said. She waved her wand and she was suddenly ready to go out. Lily frowned.
"Have you got a date already?" Lily asked.
"No, I just have to interact with a few people, get the right connections et voila." Cara said. Lily smirked.
"Well there's this really good healer, I saw him last night, he's really fit-"
"Lily, we don't go for fit, FIT tend to be the ones who end up getting us pregnant." Cara said.
"But I really think I can get him, will you let me try?" Lily asked.
"No, two at the same time gets a bit tricky." Cara said. Lily rolled her eyes and went to the bedroom. She finally had a base, a home to stay in, to live in. "Now, I'm going, remember to meet me at Gringotts at seven." Cara called.
"Yes Mother." Lily said sarcastically. She could hear Cara laughing as she left. Lily got her wand out. She didn't care what Cara was saying, she was going to start on the healer from St. Mungos. He was very rich and Lily knew he was going to be in the Seven Wands bar just down the road in about an hour.
* * * *
Lily sat on her own at a table a little way from the bar of the Seven Wands. It was a nice little bar and it was obviously the place where all the fairly well off went to drink. Lily curled a bit of hair around her finger and looked at her Witch Weekly magzine. The door opened again and Lily looked up to see a man walk in. He had lovely blonde hair that was brushed to the side. He wore a patch on his robes with a wand and a bone crossed over. He sat over by the bar and put his hospital robes on the seat next to him. Lily smiled and downed the rest of her drink. She put her magazine into her purse and stood up and headed towards the bar.
"Fire Whiskey" He said to someone behind the bar. The man behind the bar glanced at Lily and nodded.
"Hi." Lily said sweetly. The healer looked at Lily and grinned
"Hello." He said turning his full attention to Lily. "My name is Augustus Loshley." He said.
"I'm Lily." Lily said, "Lily Evans."
"What are you doing in a bar like this?" Augustus asked.
"I was just looking around, I've just moved into an apartment across the street and I was just looking around."
"You couldn't have picked a better place to live. The area is a very good place and the people here are brilliant,"
"Your drink sir." The bartender said.
"Thank you, get a drink for this young lady, what would you like?"
"Do you have any Muggle drinks?" Lily asked. The bartender nodded.
"Yes we do."
"Could I have a Bailey's then please" Lily said sweetly, she batted her eyelashes slightly and the bartender rushed off.
"Muggle drink?" Augustus asked.
"My parents were Muggles, so I grew up liking the Muggle drinks." Lily said.
"I must say some of them are really quite lovely but others, I just don't see why Muggles like them. Just normal Beer for example."
"I've never liked that, thanks" Lily said taking the glass of creamy brown Liquid. She took a sip and gave Augustus a smile. "So are you a healer?"
"Yes, I am actually." Augustus said puffing out his chest slightly, "Just got off of work." Lily sat and listened for a while as Augustus explained some of the things he'd done as a healer and places he'd visited. Overall he sounded like a thoroughly boring person but Lily flirted with him anyway.
"Hey, Gus!" came a voice from the other side of the bar. Augustus looked up and smiled.
"Will you excuse me for a moment." He said. Lily nodded and Augustus got up and went across the bar to where a man stood with very messy black hair and wire rimmed glasses. Lily thought he looked vaguely familiar but she ignored the odd nagging feeling at the back of her mind.
"So, you young?" the bartender asked.
"Twenty two." Lily said. The Bartender nodded quite impressed.
"So is the owner of the bar. He's the person that Gus is talking to." The Bartender said. Lily looked again and saw that Augustus and the man were walking back towards them.
"Lily, I'd like you to meet a good friend of mine." Augustus said. Lily put took a little sip of her drink and turned around, "He's called James Potter." Lily nearly choked on her drink when she heard his name. Augustus got his wand out and said a quick spell. The drink that had caught in Lily's throat burned slightly but she was no longer choking on it.
"Excuse me?" Lily asked hoarsely.
"James Potter." Augustus said slightly worriedly. Lily looked up into James Potter's brown eyes. Oh, how she loathed James Potter, he had followed her around endlessly for years at school and she was hoping desperately that she would never meet him again. He looked just as happy about meeting her.
"I have to go." Lily said getting up and leaving the bar. "I have to meet someone." Lily rushed out of the bar and into the street. "Oh my god!" She managed to say before heading towards Gringotts. Lily stood on a corner and saw Cara walking towards the bank with a man talking to her and holding onto her arm.
"So it must be very tough having to crack the Quidditch industry." Cara said.
"As I said before, it all depends on who you know and-" the person she was talking to kept on talking while Cara scanned the front of the bank for Lily. They made eye contact and Cara gave the slightest of nods, Lily knew what she had to do. She reached for her bag that should be hanging on her arm. She needed her wand. Where was her bag. Lily spun around and checked herself but her bag was nowhere.
"Oh-" Lily said frustrated.
"I believe this is yours." Came a familiar voice. Lily looked up and into the hazel eyes of James Potter. He was holding her bag on a finger.
"You've done good Potter. Now you can go." Lily said as she opened her bag and got out her wand. She pointed it at Cara and the man she was with.
"What are you doing?" James asked,
"None of your business." Lily said. She turned around. "Can you go?"
"Fine." James said turning around. Lily looked at Cara again who was looking at her. Lily pointed her wand and muttered a spell. Cara tripped over and into the arms of the man that was holding her. She gave out a small shout of surprise and pain.
"What was that?" James asked, turning around.
"Nothing." Lily said putting her wand away.
"I highly doubt that Evans. What was I?" James tried to get past Lily but to stop him Lily pressed her lips against his. James stopped struggling to get past and slowly got into the kiss.
"Oh, my ankle, I think it's twisted." Cara said to the man she was with.
"Oh, my place is just down here. I'll take you there to just get you fixed up." The man said with a smile.
"That would be too much hassle" Cara said clutching her ankle,
"No, I insist." The man picked her up carefully and she gave him a flirty smile. She glanced over to where Lily was and saw her kissing some man with very messy hair. Cara was pleased to see that Lily had her eyes slightly open. Lily motioned for Cara to go behind her back as the man started to take Cara to his house.
"So, Matthew, how far is it to your place?" Cara asked.
"Potter, what are you doing!" Lily said hitting his chest. James blinked for a few moments.
"Huh?"
"You are just as bad as you were when you were at school, what part of no do you not understand?" Lily asked,
"Huh?" Lily turned and stormed away leaving James looking bewildered. "She just kissed me." James said to himself. Lily Evans, the girl he had fallen for ten years ago had just kissed him. He had tried so hard to get her out of his mind, every single day from the day she started dating Remus he had tried to forget about her but that hadn't worked, her face haunted his every waking moments and sleeping hours. He was just about getting over her when she walked into his bar, of all the bars in the world, it had to be his. James looked at his feet where Lily's purse lay on the floor with it's contents scattered across the floor, including her wand. James bent over and scooped everything into the purse and slowly headed back to his bar.
