Thanks for reviewing guys!! This chapter is a very teeny weeny step for James and Lily's relationship...!

Hope you like Chapter 5! I'm sorry if there are any grammatical mistakes or its too short.

I was half awake when I was writing this!

But Thanks to my good friend ChrisPgirl, who helped proof-read this chapter!!

Chapter 5: Sharing dinner

As the six of them sat around the small rectangular dinner table, Lily looked around, smiling. Finally they were all back together, after a long 5 years.

There sat James at the end of the table, seated on Remus' right and on Jackie's left, laughing as Jackie whispered something in his ear.

Cringing Lily looked away, and smiled sweetly at Sirius, who had just caught her gaze. "Alright, darling?" Sirius asked, running a thumb along the back of her hand.

Lily nodded, "Yes, Fine," She replied. Sirius nodded, before turning to his left to speak to Jackie, who had just finished whispering in James' ear.

Listening to Sirius and Jackie talk, Lily hadn't heard someone calling her name. "Lily! Lil?"

"What?" Lily asked, turning her head to where she heard the voice.

James smiled and said, "Bit out of it there, Lil? Er, Could you please pass the sauce?"

Lily nodded, picking up the bowl of cranberry sauce, and placing it in his open hand

Lily had excused herself from the dinner table, saying she had to get the dessert ready. She was standing at the sink, when she heard the kitchen door open.

She turned her head slightly, to see who had just opened the door.

James Potter.

James was carrying a half full wine glass. "I haven't gotten the chance to speak to you yet, Lily," he spoke softly as he took a sip of the red wine.

Lily turned around, trying to busy herself with cutting the cake, into small squares.

"Yeah, I know. It has been a while," she said as she continued to cut the cake.

"It has. How have you been? I heard you went into auror training," he conversed as he leant on the counter, watching her.

"Yeah, that's been fine," Lily said, still continuing to cut the cake.

"Lil, you are a witch. You don't have to use the muggle methods to cut a cake," James pointed out, as he watched her, swirling the wine glass around.

"Yes, I know that I am a witch. Thank you for pointing out the obvious, James. But I like using some of the muggle methods. It reminds me of when I was a girl, I spent a lot of the time just cooking, not knowing any magic at all," she said, as she stopped cutting the cake.

"Lily, that's what I love about you. You aren't lazy like the rest of us," James said grinning at Lily. "You mean, I'm not like you," Lily said laughing at him, as she whacked him playfully on the arm.

"Hey, that hurt!" he proclaimed sarcastically.

"Shush up" Lily chortled, giggling softly.

James smiled, pulling Lily into a friendly hug. "Jeez, I missed you Lily flower," He said, kissing her forehead slightly.

Feeling chills, run up her spine, Lily hesitantly placed her arms around him. "I missed you too, James." She murmured against his chest.

"I missed you a lot, James"

Thanks for the reviwers! You guys rock!
