It just occurred to me that I forgot to put a disclaimer on the last chapter.

DISCLAIMER: I have no money, so there is no point in suing me. But just so you know, no characters, plot aspects, settings or merchandise that is found in any of the Harry Potter books belong to me. I wish they did. But they don't. So leave me alone. Everything else is mine.

7 REVIEWS!!!!!!! I feel so loved. Wow. 7. Wow. I posted last night and I come back today and I have seven reviews. I was hoping for three in like a week.

I LOVE YOU ALL!!!

Ok.

Empress Genevieve - I have an aunt called Genevieve. Thankyou for your review, of course I will keep writing!!

Imaginator - Fast enough for you? Thanks!

Babyhalo19 - Thankyou so much for putting me on your favourites!! You rock girl!!

Reader - I will. Thanks for reviewing.

Rain Wolf - One of my loyal reviewers! (Not that I have all that many) Thankyou so much, I'm glad you liked it.

Clearbrook - I can't stand flamers! If I don't like something, I at least try to give constructive criticism. I don't just go and tell them that they're completely crap at writing. (That doesn't mean if I give you constructive criticism that I think you are crap.) Anyway. Thankyou for reviewing!

Bertiebottsgeorge - I seriously doubt that I will get more reviews than you because you have about a hundred and fifty!! And you have a fantastic story! AND YOU INSPIRED THIS STORY!! So there. You are obviously better than me. BTW, I loved Drunk Love. Everyone reading this go and read it, it's fantastic. Thanks!!

Phew!! I think I had better write some chapter now before you all get pissed off at me.

Without further Ado, Chapter 2!! (I'm a poet and.. I'm sure you get the point.)

Chapter 2 - James

James stretched lazily on the couch in the Gryffindor Common Room. He noticed something was missing.

"Hey Sirius?"

"What?"

"Where's Remus and Peter?"

Sirius shrugged, carefully placing the next card on his Exploding Snap card house.

"That'll blow up in your face."

Sirius shook his head, "No, it will blow up in Peter's face."

"Huh?"

"Just watch, Prongs, old friend."

James stood suddenly, "I'm going to the kitchens. Dinner isn't coming fast enough."

Sirius nodded absently as he placed another card on the house.

James grinned suddenly, slipping beneath his invisibility cloak. Walking past Sirius, he gently blew at the tower, then sprinted for the exit.

Sirius swore as his precious house collapsed, exploding spectacularly in his face.

***

James wandered slowly down the corridors, careful to avoid the occasional passerby. He entered the passageway leading to the kitchens and tickled the pear in a painting of a bowl of fruit. The pear giggled and swung forwards to let him in.

Once in the kitchen, James pulled off his cloak, only to hear a startled gasp behind him.

Cursing his stupidity, he spun around, only to find himself face to face with a certain red headed young woman.

"Lily." James' mind went into overdrive trying to think of some explanation.

She interrupted his train of thought, smiling ruefully, "Hungry?"

James nodded, grateful.

Lily handed him a piece of chicken off the plate she was holding, "I should give you a detention. I am a prefect."

James' face fell.

She laughed, "But I'm not going to, because I shouldn't be down here either."

James grinned, "I won't tell if you don't."

"Deal."

They fell silent, munching on their chicken.

"Sooo. Is that an invisibility cloak you appeared from beneath, or do you know something that the rest of the world doesn't?"

James shrugged, "I know lots of things the rest of the world doesn't."

Lily snorted, "Like what?"

James was suddenly aware of her beauty, her darkish red curls pulled back in a loose knot at the back of neck, her emerald eyes sparkling at him from beneath crimson lashes.

He smiled.

"Come on. I'll show you."

***

James carefully pulled the statue of the one eyed witch closed, pulling the cloak from over them.

Lily looked flabbergasted, "Where are we?"

"Not scared, are we?"

"No."

"Follow me."

They walked in silence. Reaching the end, the pair covered themselves again with the cloak and wandered out of Honeyduke's and up to the Shrieking Shack. Lily gasped when she realized where they were.

"James!! We're not supposed to be here!! It isn't a Hogsmeade weekend!"

James leant against the fence of the Shrieking Shack, "Oh, lighten up a little. It's not that bad."

She didn't seem convinced.

"Look, Lily. I just thought, 'hey, I feel like a Butterbeer, Lily looks like she could go for a walk, let's go to Hogsmeade'. I'm sorry if I was too forward."

Lily sighed, "If we get caught."

"It was all my idea."

"I could lose my badge!"

"So could I."

Lily stared at him, ".You're a prefect?"

"Yes, actually. And it so happens that as a prefect, I think it is perfectly alright for you to be here."

They wandered over to The Three Broomsticks for a Butterbeer.

Drinking again in silence, James felt suddenly awkward.

"Look. I'm sorry if I dragged you out here and. you don't want to be here."

Lily laughed, "Of course I want to be here! Do you even have to ask?"

James shrugged, "It just seems like . you're worried - "

"I worry because that's what I do. And it's almost dinner time. Maybe.?"

James nodded, "Sure."

***

"Where have you been? How much food did you eat to be down there that long?"

James smiled, "You have no idea, my friend."

Remus entered the room, "James, I need to talk to you."

"What's up, Moony?"

"In private."

James followed him curious.

"I just finished my. monthly business, and I was about to come out when I heard a familiar voice."

"Oh."

Remus smirked, "Mind telling me about it?"

James grinned, "Don't tell Sirius."

"Wouldn't dream about it, Prongs."

***

James got into his bed and lay back against his arms.

He tried to sleep, but every time he closed his eyes, he could see a certain flame headed woman with dazzling eyes.

He thought back to what Sirius had said on the train, "Awwwww, Jamesie has a crush."

Rubbish, he thought. That was just Sirius being Sirius.

Or was it Sirius being Serious?

James had to laugh. Sirius was never serious.

(A/N talk about tongue twisters)

But that didn't stop the image of the red head popping into his head as he fell asleep.

***

A/N - I only want another three reviews. But I'm going away tomorrow for a few days so it might be a while before I get the next one up.

I'm SORRY!!!

Anyway. Please review. It will light up my whole week.

Luv you all. Lawwwren.
