"Reflections"

Lily's POV

"So, did he kiss you goodnight?" asked Sarah.  I had just gotten back, hand in hand, with James from our date. And Sarah whisked me away to get all the details.  At this moment, I was pulling on my pajamas.

"No." I simply said.

"What? Why?"

"Because I didn't let him."

"Why? Did you not have a good time?"

"No.  I mean.  I head a great time.  He was so sweet.  He didn't try anything."  I smiled at the memories.

(A/N You may not like Flashbacks, so ignore it then)

FLASHBACK

"I'm surprised you haven't tried anything yet." Lily said.

"I've decided to stay on your good side."

"Good thinking.  Otherwise, I may just have to hurt you."

'I figured that." He smiled at Lily. She smiled back.  'He has changed.' Thought Lily.  And that was definitely good.

FLASHBACK END

"He is sweet." Said Sarah.

"Don't I know it."

"So, did he try?"

"Once.  But, well…" 

FLASHBACK

James began to lean into Lily as they stood at the portrait hole saying goodnight.

"James," said Lily.  James pulled back.  "Not yet.  This was the first date.  And it went well.  Don't try and succeed in ruining it."  He nodded.

"Okay.  That's okay with me." He took Lily' hand in his.  "As long as I'm on your good side.  I'll be fine."  Lily smiled. "Good."  They said the password to the portrait hole and climbed in.  Memories stuck with them forever."

FLASHBACK END "Wow." Said Sarah. "I know.  But we are going out again.  So it's all good." Sarah squealed.  Then we heard a huge whoop coming from the common room.  I couldn't help it.  I laughed.  I was happy.  And that, that was a good thing.

Common Room:

James' POV

I watched Lily and Sarah head upstairs and smiled to myself.  Lily and I had just gotten back from our date, which had gone well, and now Sarah dragged Lily away.  So I was stuck listening to Sirius bombard me with questions.

"Did it go well? Did you kiss? Did you get laid?" he asked "Well? WELL!?!"

"Yes, No, and Padfoot.  Lily's different from other girls." I replied.

"Not getting laid is fine I guess.  But no kiss.  Man, that must suck."

"I guess a little.  But we're going again."  Sirius let out a whoop of success. 

"Way to go Prongs!" I laughed.  Remus then came down the stairs.

"Shut up Padfoot." He turned to me.  "Well?"

"We're going out on Saturday.  Hogsmeade."  Remus couldn't help it.  He let out a whoop of success, similar to Sirius'.  Multiple "Shut Ups" were heard from upstairs.  We laughed again.  Yeah.  So life was looking up.  Lily and I were going out again.  I smiled to myself.  Remembering when I asked her to go out again.

FLASHBACK

"So, Lils, can I call you that?" Lily nodded.  Lily and James were heading back to the common room.

"I guess." She said.

"I was, uhh, wondering if maybe next Saturday you would like to accompany me to Hogsmeade." James asked her.   She smiled to herself, looking as though she were thinking about it.

"But its not a Hogsmeade day."

"I've got my ways."

"James, were the Head Girl and Boy.  Shouldn't we be setting examples?"

"Yeah.  But, I have something I want to show you."  Lily looked at him.

"Okay."

"Great.  Meet me in the common room at 1."  She nodded and we continued our way back to the common room.

FLASHBACK END

I smiled to myself once more.  My life was beginning to look up even more.  Not only had she said yes and we had been on one date.  She said yes to another.  Now that's skill.
