Chapter Nine - A tear in your eye

James was sat in silence with the exception of the occasional noise that could be heard coming from inside the bathroom where Remus was. As Remus stepped out a lot of commotion could be heard coming up the stairs. Both Sirius and Peter came into the room. "Prongs, Mooney my dear friends I have successfully reached new levels of stupidity. Oh YES!" Shouted Sirius as he took a bow. "Not something that is particularly hard for you to do Padfoot" said Remus as he watched amused whilst Sirius pranced around the room.

"Come on then Padfoot what did you do?" Asked James quietly, as he spoke for the first time since Remus' words.

"Well I am the only person to complete six pirouettes across the top of the Gryffindore sofa wearing a red and gold tutu, over my robes of course" Sirius yet again took another bow and James couldn't help but laugh. Peter and Remus were also doubled over in hysterics.

"Well I have to admit Sirius that defiantly is new levels of stupidity." Said Remus as he got into bed. "You going to get some sleep tonight James?"

James looked over and nodded his head, the word sentimental was floating around his head and his every thought was based on Lily and how the day after tomorrow was the last day and it would all be over by midnight one way or another.

The next morning it was a dull day...but it seemed to have some very calming qualities. The gray skies, gentle pitter-patter of the rain and students all enjoying each other's company at breakfast.

James came and sat next to Lily something she was becoming accustomed to. As she looked around to acknowledge him, he spoke to her. "What's that in your eye?" As surprised as Lily was that this actually seemed like a normal thing to say, she lifted her hand towards the underneath of her eye. James caught her hand and held onto it and he shrugged and spoke again. "Must be a twinkle" Lily felt herself go red and James gently lay her hand back on the table and continued to eat his breakfast. Everyone looked on in shock at James except of course Remus who merely smiled and knew James had taken his advice.

In lessons Lily who was still in initial shock of what James had said to her at breakfast and she wasn't the only one. Luckily it was Divination and James was sat with his friends, which gave Lily the opportunity to talk to hers.

"Can you two at all explain to me what happened at breakfast today?" Asked Lily. "Well...I really really do not a have a clue!" Said Jade with a face that complimented her thoughts of sheer confusedness. Lily turned to look Lehanna in the face to see what she had to say.

"I'm with Jade I don't know...I mean its not against all probability that he can be well...caring, sweet and lovable. So this could just be a new angle for James to try...and I think it might possibly be working" Lehanna went quiet towards the end but Lily still heard what she said.

"I do not! Were just friends now that's all!" Lily started paying attention to what was being said by the batty teacher standing at the front.

At the end of the class Lily was walking down the steps ready to go to the defense against the dark arts as James came up besides her.

"Do you have a map? I keep getting lost in your eyes," he said as he stared at her right in the eye. Lily wanted to look away but found that she couldn't. Only when James smiled and took her hand and kissed it gently before walking away did Lily blush profusely and feel her own legs turn to jelly.

In defense against the dark arts Lily tried to sit away from James, but to her dismay he sat very close. Lily was only glad that no one else saw the kiss James had planted on her hand; otherwise she'd never hear the end of it.

James came up to Lily at break and sat next to her. He waited until she turned to face him before he spoke. "If you were a tear in my eye I would not cry for fear of losing you" Lily's mouth opened in shock and she only just realized in time and closed her mouth quickly. James had a quick drink and snack and when the bell went left with lily, jade, Lehanna and his own friends Sirius, Remus and Peter.

James didn't talk to Lily until dinnertime when he again sat next to her for his lunch. All of their friends desperate to see what new caring and sentimental line James would use.

But he didn't not one word to Lily, he just ate his dinner. That is until they had all finished and were getting up to leave for double astronomy. "Was your father a thief? Because someone stole the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes." Sirius and Peter looked shocked again but recovered quickly. Remus, Jade and Lehanna were all smiling. Lily had again blushed and to everyone's surprise even his own James blushed. When he realized he exited the hall quickly. In the astronomy classroom James had recovered and was lying next to Lily looking through a telescope. He couldn't concentrate though with Lily being so close.

That's when something enters his lovely sized brain. "When I look into your eyes I see the moon and the stars" James was looking at Lily who slowly turned to face him. He looked into her eyes and both their eyes were locked together. James leaned in a bit, as did Lily, just as they were getting close professor Janid came over to them. "Now Lily, James I don't think your going to be able to tell me if mars is in conjunction with Uranus looking at each other instead of your telescopes, back to work please."

They both blushed and turned back to their work unaware of their friends smiling, people who had place a bet that said James and Lily would be together smiling and people that had bet they wouldn't get together sighing with frustration.

When the lesson-ended things had got a little to close for comfort for Lily and she feared it because she couldn't understand it. At the end of an evening Lily lay down the book she had been reading and she hadn't in all that time realized James had one last thing to say to her and wouldn't say it until just before she went to sleep. He waited until she was out of her chair and on the bottom step of the stairs to her dormitory. "Lily!" She recognized the voice but not in almost a week had she heard him say her name without something attached to it. "I put a drop of tear in the ocean last night for you. And I wont stop loving you until you find that tear drop."

He went strait up to Lily and kissed her on the cheek. The moment seemed to last forever for both Lily and James. Both of them seemed to find the room so much warmer.

James and Lily both turned away from each other at the same time and walked to their own dormitories. As soon as everyone else new both James and Lily were out of ear shot Sirius was hounded by people for new bets to place as tonight was their last chance all bets closed at midnight for the results tomorrow would bring.

A/N: Ok well I should be getting on with the next chapter, but hey I'll write this anyway. Erm...yeah so hope you enjoyed it and I cant wait for the results tomorrow he he. I could add a lil twist cruel for James but it could be funny...hmmm.
