The grand hall doors opened, revealing the two new head girl and boy as the two headed for their place. All eyes watched their progress, others had amused smile plastered on their lips, and others scowled in jealousy.
"Slow down, Potter! We're here, don't need to drag me to the front!" Lily protested, trying to relieve herself from the hold James had on her wrist.
James didn't seem to hear her for he continued to drag her to the front until they've reached their spot. He grinned at her then sat down. She shook her head in disgust.
"Can't even pull out a chair for a girl! Don't you have manners?" she asked him, sitting herself.
"Nope! I'm free of that stuff!" he replied, a teasing smile on his lips
"Whatever!" she looked away, spotting Rose at the far end, smiling at her, she waved.
"How long have you known each other?" the sudden warm breath on her neck startled her and she slightly jumped up from her seat.
James saw the movement and gave a slow smile, luckily, Lily wasn't looking his way or else she would have jumped even more with the look he gave her.
"Ummâ since we were 4" she mumbled, moving away from him, too conscious of the affect he has on her.
James saw the movement and his smile widened even more, he was about to comment on it, when everyone went silent as the headmaster walked forward and welcomed them to the first day of classes.

"So, anything you want to tell your best friend?" Rose asked her
She tried not to stutter at the surprising question, "N..nothing"
Rose raised an eyebrow at the obvious lie, her smile brightened as she saw the flush on her best friends cheek.
"You know you can never fool me, Lily, I know you too much to believe that answerâ now tell me, there's something happening between the two of you, and your going to spill it, now!"
"Whatâ whoâ I don't know what your talking about"
"O come on, Lily! I'm your best friend, you know you can trust me with anything, why not this!" Rose asked with exasperation in her voice, hurt showing in her eyes.
Lily studied her best friend, Rose has never betrayed herâ and they did promise one another that they'll never keep anything between themâ but she just wasn't sure she wanted to share this.
"I trust you, Roseâ but"
"There are no buts, Lily! Come on! Spill!"
The putting face Rose placed on was too much for her resistanceâ and soon enough she told everything that had happened the night before, seeing the excitement that glittered in her best friends eyes.
"No way! I don't believe he did that! What a man!" Rose stated, her eyes glazing over.
"Earth to Rose!"
"O sorry, Lily, I spaced out there! I can't believe it! Lucky you!!" she squealed, as they walked to class.
"No! UNLUCKY you mean! Heck! I hate him, remember!!"
"No you don't! You responded, remember!" came the teasing reply, "You like him!"
"NO! NEVER!" Lily shouted, attracting attention to herself, she blushed walking faster, dragging Rose with her.
"You do! O my God! It's developing!
"No, Rose, nothing is developing, I will never fall for that idiot! Never! You hear me! Not even on my life!" she denied, slamming her books down unto her table.
Rose sighed, no use arguing with her, especially now
"Besidesâ doesn't he have a fiancée ready for him after he graduates?" Lily stated, studying her book.
"So?" Rose replied
"So?! Come on, Rose! The guys going to marry another girl when he graduates, and I won't be stupid enough to fall for him and breaking my heart like all the others" came the harsh reply.
"Fine then! If you won't admit it, it's your loss!"
"I'm not losing anything! I don't like him!"
"You can be so stubborn at times!" Rose reprimanded, shaking her head.
"It's better than just giving in!" came the irritated reply.
"What does that suppose to mean?" Rose stood up, glaring down at Lily.
"I'm just say" their argument was cut off by the entrance of their teacher, the two sat quietly as class continued on, but the tension hung in the air, and the two felt it. It was a gap that neither wantedâ but obviously wouldn't settle anytime soon.
The bell rang as everyone filed out of the room and headed for their next class.
"Hey, sorry back there!" Rose was the first to talk, she received a small smile
"Me too" Lily replied
"Ummâ if you don't want to talk about it nowâ well, there's always tomorrow, right!" Lily nodded, "Wellâ see you laterâ got to get to my next class"
"Yaâ me too! See you at lunch!" Lily replied, walking the opposite way as where Rose was headed.
