After Hogwarts, Sirius, James and Remus found themselves an apartment to live in. James and Lily have just started dating... and he invited her over one night...
Lily closed the bathroom door behind her and walked into the living room where her boyfriend and his friends were talking lively. She glanced at her watch and gasped. 'Damn! It's very late: 2 a.m.! How am I supposed to go back home now?'
James who was standing next to Sirius near the couch, smiled impishly at her and said, 'well, you could always stay here...'
Remus, who was zapping channels from the couch looked up at James curiously and Sirius crossed his arms across his chest. 'I can see you coming Potter!' he muttered. 'And where will she sleep, huh?'
'Uh...in my bed!' James said matter-of-factly.
Remus smiled from his slouching position. 'In your bed, huh?'
'I thought you said you wouldn't go too fast with her!' Sirius whispered to him, slyly.
'But I'll be sleeping on the couch,' James quickly added, pointing towards the dark blue sofa.
Lily intervened at this point. 'Are you sure that won't bother you James?' she asked. 'I mean, I don't want to intrude or anything...'
James grinned down at her and wrapped his arms around her waist, 'of course not sweetheart.'

About an hour later...
'Thanks James,' Lily said crouching down next to the couch and taking his hand in her own. James was under his quilt and a big sky-blue pillow was stuffed behind his head.
Sirius and Remus had already gone to bed: their bedroom door was closed and their lights were off.
'Anytime, Lily,' James smiled rubbing his thumb against her cheek. 'Couldn't let you go back home in the dark, cold night and risk having you attacked by some lunatic, could I?'
'I guess not,' Lily smiled leaning over to place a kiss on his forehead. 'But I could have slept on the couch; this is no problem for me.'
James shook his head. 'My bed is very comfortable, you'll see. And anyway, I'm okay, I like sleeping here.'
Lily raised her eyebrows. 'How many times exactly did you give up your bed for a girl?' she teased
James smiled and kissed her lips. 'Good night Lily.'
She looked at James with those gentle green eyes of hers and smiled. 'Good night James.'

The next morning...
'Ouch, my back aches so much,' Lily winced holding her back.
Sirius who was holding his breakfast plate in his hands turned to look at her. 'Really? Did you carry something heavy?'
Lily shook her head, rubbing her eyes while yawning. 'No...but spending a whole night on a couch, it's...' Lily stopped rubbing her eyes and blushed, looked around at the others. 'Oops.'
Sirius was staring at her with that glint in his eyes and Remus had stopped eating his toast and was staring at her.
Lily grabbed the coffee-pot and a mug and turned towards the sink. 'Uh...'
Behind her back, James was looking at his friends innocently and shrugging while Remus laughed and Sirius had that "I-should-have-known" look...
THE END
