malini- thx so much! glad to know you liked it!
and heres chapter 2....
"Dammit, why doesn't she like me?" James asked Sirius as both of them walked into the boys dormitory after dinner, "I've never done anything wrong to her!"
Sirius shook his head and sighed, "I just don't know mate." James grabbed a handful of his messy hair in fustration and fell into the bed facedown. He said in a muffled voice,
"She's making me crazy! I want her so bad, but she hates me! God, I'm gonna get a freakin ulcer from all this." He turned around and now lay staring at the ceiling. Sirius looked at James with ,an unlikely saw, serious expression on his face.
"James, look, she's making you miserable. You need to get over her. Maybe you should hook up with that blonde in transfiguration class, get your mind off Lily " He grinned, but quickly stopped when he saw the look on James face. James had a dreamy expression on, and Sirius realized that James was looking like that because he had said Lily's name.
"Prongs! Snap out of it!" James instantly lost his expression and looked a little embarressed.
"Sirius, I don't think I can get over her, I really don't," James mumbled still staring at the ceiling, "She's the one, i know it." he added softly so Sirius couldn't hear.
"What was that last bit?" Sirius asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, er, nothing," But he didn't need to lie, Sirius had heard what he said, though he didn't tell James.
"I can try to talk to her again, you never know, she might listen this time," Sirius said, trying to cheer his best friend up, but looking doubtful. James sat up slowly, and started walking to the door with a miserable expression on, and muttered half to himself, half to Sirius,
"Nah, I'm gonna go for a walk, maybe go for a ride on my broomstick. yeah..... that sounds good..." He walked out the door without another look at Sirius, and obviously not thinking about how cold it was outside. Sirius stared at the door James had walked through, not moving. He had, just suddently hatched a brilliant idea. ' James is gonna kill me..... if he finds out.... but it just might work... yeah....' Sirius thought to himself as he walked over to James's bed. Croutching down, he grabbed something from under it, and grinned in spite himself as he started looking at it.
Lily kicked up the soft covers that lay on her bed sleepily, and sat up stretching. She glanced at her watch on her left wrist (9:47), and looked out the window. She smiled as she looked down and saw about 3 untouched inched of snow, and some still falling down. Lily loved the way untouched snow looked, like a jar of whipped cream. Her eyes scanned the snow covered tree tops, and the dozen or so owls flying all over the grounds. 'Tomorrow's Christmas' she thought and smiled broader. She looked over to Ruth's bed and saw she was still sleeping.
"Better not wake her" she said in a small voice, and tip-toed out of the dormitory, careful not to wake up anyone else either. She walked down the stairs, and out of the empty common room to the owlery. When she entered, she gazed up at the beautiful arrangement of owls, some shaking off thin layers of snow from their backs. The owlery had a very high ceiling with ledges for owls to rest, and an open window, with no glass. Lily shivered pleasantly, and coaxed down a small, white school owl. He landed on her arm, and she softly petted him with her finger. Then, reaching into her pocket, she brought out a letter she had written to her parents a few days ago to wish them Merry Christmas, and tied it to the owl's foot with a bit of string. She then leaned towards the owl's ear and whispered,
"Just don't let Petunia get it first, ok?" With that, she let the owl go and watched as he grew smaller and smaller in the snowy sky.
I don't like writing long chapters, I don't know why..... I'll write the next chapter when I get back from from the movies (Napoleon Dynamite lol), remeber to review!
