Disclaimer: Am I J.K Rowling? Is that what you think? Ahahahaha! I find
that rather funny. Especially seeing as I am a teenager and she is married
with two children. So... now that we have established that I am not the
fabulous Ms. Rowling, you can take that lawsuit and shove it up
your...ahem, excuse me, I am taking anger management classes. But no. I am
not J.K Rowling and I do not own anything. So there.
A/N – I would like to apologize to all you poor people who have been waiting for this chappie. I am a hypocritical fool who loves other people to update their fics so I can enjoy, but am then overcome with a bout of laziness that makes me unprepared to write.
No, actually, I've been busy. I'm sorry I haven't been able to update, but self-motivation to do work of any kind is currently failing me.
But, here I am.
On with the show.
Chapter 4 – Sirius' Excellent Love Scheme
Lily stretched as Perinea Patil opened the curtains to allow the cold morning sunlight to stream through. She cast her thoughts to the previous day's events, and smiled.
She couldn't wait until breakfast. She just felt this sudden need to see James again, to make him smile, to hear his courteous morning greeting and smell his unique scent. She couldn't understand it, really. Why this sudden fascination with James?
(A/N – yes, I wonder why. And she's supposed to be a smart witch.)
***
James hurried down to the common room, eyes searching for a sign of fire amongst the ranks. Blonde, black and brunette met his eyes, but no crimson flame caught his attention. He sighed and turned back to the staircase. And, there she was.
Unbeknownst to its owner, a brilliant smile crossed James' face.
*** Lily reached the top of the staircase and looked down, searching for James' messy hair. She found him, his back turned to her, his head scanning slightly. Then he turned, and Lily was taken aback at the joyful expression that crossed his face as he spotted her.
Lily couldn't help but return his smile.
Sirius observed the pair, the ghost of a smile on his own face. He turned back to the conversation he had been having.
"I think it is time we put our plan into action, Moony, old friend." Remus smiled.
***
The plan was rather simple, but extremely difficult to pull off. It was, in Sirius' defence, also rather brilliant.
James was a romantic at heart, always the one to halt their fun if someone was going to get hurt, and always up for some public attention. Lily, however, was shy in the limelight, but enjoyed the simple pleasure one got from the company of others.
And, it was obvious; both would do anything for the other.
"I feel a moment's guilt over this," Sirius confessed to Remus, when both had realised what they would have to do to get the prank to work, "But ... Oh look! A butterfly!" Remus shook his head. He decided he would have to be the safeguard in this particular stunt. Just in case Sirius got distracted.
***
Lily and James were sitting at the Gryffindor table, munching silently on a spot of lunch, when the sky above them quite suddenly went very dark. Everyone looked up as one, and were extremely surprised to see that the relatively sunny day had quite suddenly been overcome with clouds as black as the caves of Moria.
(A/N – oh yeah, I don't own anything from LotR either – sorry about the cross-reference there.)
James looked at Lily and noticed her small face was etched with worry.
"I worry because that's what I do" she had told him, that day in Hogsmeade. She was cute when she worried. He shook away the thought, cursing himself.
She's your friend, James. Don't ruin a good thing. She'll never look at you the same if you are presumptuous.
And that was enough for James. Lily was his friend and he wasn't going to hurt her. Ever.
Even if it meant they could only be friends. He stole another glance at her, to find she was instinctively shrinking towards him, frightened by the sudden lightning that tore across the roof. Everyone was suddenly panicking.
Dumbledore stood and cast a silencing spell, "All students please follow your prefects to the dormitories. I do not believe there is anything to worry about, but after the recent collapse of the third floor corridor, we cannot be too careful."
Lily's leadership skills took over. She stood and strode to the head of the table, instructing the first years to be calm and follow her. James watched her, smiling as she lead them towards Gryffindor Tower. His leadership instincts, it seemed, were somewhat more relaxed than hers were. He fell back, content to bring up the rear of the mob.
James did notice, however, as they walked, that Sirius and Remus had fallen back and stopped in the Entrance Hall. He raised an eyebrow at them, and they gave him curiously mischievous grins which made him feel up to a good, decent prank. However, he was on duty, so he merely gave them a thumbs-up and chose to turn a blind eye. His prefect instincts, it seemed, were as latent as his leadership ones.
***
James felt his stomach begin to rumble. Lunch had been cut extremely short, and dinner wouldn't be ready for ages. He looked across at Lily, who had three first years gathered around her, frightened by the commotion. Lily was reassuring them, telling them the Muggle story of the Wizard of Oz, which they all seemed to find extremely funny.
James listened to her silvery laughter ringing amongst them, and wandered over. "My grandfather was related to that Wizard." He noted with a grin.
Lily laughed, "Oh really? And did he meet Dorothy in his time?"
James nodded, "She even killed the Wicked Witch of the West, who was actually the Mother of Grindlewald."
Lily's grin grew as she heard James' stomach rumbling, "Ohh, did ickle Jamesie miss out on lunch."
James scowled a little, "Yes, ickle Jamesie did. And now he's hungry enough to eat a witch."
"Oh no, I'd better run. Come on, let's go visit the house-elves." They headed for the portrait door.
***
Remus and Sirius grinned from beneath James' 'borrowed' invisibility cloak as James and Lily headed for the portrait. Part One of Sirius' Excellent Love Scheme had worked.
The theory had been simple. No marauder could last long without lunch, and so Sirius and Remus had ensured that James would be busy enough to not only miss lunch, but be unable to head to the kitchens until his prefect duties were complete. Lily, of course would also be hungry and wouldn't fail to accompany him.
Part Two, would be more difficult.
*** Lily and James had just reached the portrait of the fruit bowl when James' instincts for trouble alerted him to the fact that something was not right.
"Something is not right," he said.
Lily rolled her eyes at his dramatism (is that a word?) and reached out to tickle the pear.
"No!" yelled James. They both promptly felt the ground beneath them open up and they fell into the abyss below.
The ground closed after them and Sirius popped out from beneath the cloak and removed the spell from the painting. All was as it had been before.
Except...
Lily and James were stuck in a hole.
How terrible. Sirius began to snicker.
***
James awoke much later to find his back hurting. Something was sitting on him. He tried to move and discovered that he couldn't.
"Lily? Lily are you alright?"
A groan sounded close to his left ear and he realised it was she that was causing his backache.
"James?"
"Yeah. Ow. Do you think you can get up?"
Lily slowly managed to move into a position where she could kneel. She reached out and offered her hand to help James up. He took it and yelped in surprise as warm tingles spread up his arm. Lily felt it also. Each dropped the other's hand as though it were a snake.
Lily wrinkled her nose delicately, "Where are we?"
James looked at her, seeming to size her up, "We must be in one of the secret passages. I think I've been here before with Sirius, Remus and Peter."
Lily raised an eyebrow.
James looked at her "This isn't good. If we are where I think we are...it's going to take a while to get out."
Right on cue, his stomach began to growl again.
Lily tried to hide her smile. And failed miserably. Both began to laugh. "Come on," Lily told him, "Let's get out of here before you starve to death."
***
What James didn't know about the particular passage the pair was in was that it contained a magic as old as Hogwarts. It couldn't be harnessed or changed in any way by those affected by it, and it responded primarily to the people who were in it.
When James had entered the passage with his friends, the four had been on a great adventure and were eager to find out where the passage went. Because they wanted to be in that tunnel, travelling it to its end, the magic responded to their wants. As soon as they became worried that they were never going to get out of the tunnel, and even began to panic about being late for school (of all things) the magic responded again and the tunnel promptly ended.
Relieved, the four had decided not to re-enter the tunnel mainly because it led to nothing but back to the school, and led a loo-oong passage around the grounds for seemingly no reason.
Remus and Sirius had figured that if they could trap James and Lily in the passageway, they would be forced to wander to the end of the tunnel, which was in effect, several hours worth of walking.
Their plan had one minor – well perhaps major – drawback.
They didn't realise that James' knowledge that the tunnel did supposedly end at the school would mean that neither he nor Lily would panic about never getting out and therefore, the magic would not lead them back to the school.
And therefore, assuming James and Lily did end up finding an exit to the proposed "tunnel of love", any exit would reflect whatever they pair were mutually feeling.
(A/N hmmm. A nice bedroom, anyone? ; ) hehehe...)
Sirius and Remus had only wanted James and Lily to be together. And now they were together.
But for how long?
***
James looked at Lily in the candle-illuminated tunnel. They had been walking for over three hours. She was tired. He was tired. It was at least five o'clock in the afternoon. And James knew that the last time he had entered this tunnel, it had taken him and his friends seven-and-a-half hours of running – in Animagus form – to reach the end of that fated tunnel. Now, he knew they had dropped into the tunnel somewhere in its middle, but he didn't know how far along they were or how far they had to go.
And he was sorry that she had to walk so far. He had been the one who was hungry. It was her fault that she had ended up here with him.
Lily was quietly reflective as she walked. She and James had kept up conversation for the first hour or so, but had since fallen into a long, comfortable silence, giving her time to think.
The focus of her thoughts was the young man walking in silence at her side.
I have been so lucky this year – she thought. – I have wonderful friends. I am doing well in school, I'm a prefect, and now I'm stuck in this never- ending tunnel with the one person who can make me laugh and want to cry at the same time.
Why do I feel like this? James is my best friend. I can tell him anything I like and he will always be completely honest and respect my feelings at the same time.
She glanced sideways at her companion and felt her heart flutter at his messy hair setting off his handsome face. His eyes turned to catch hers regarding him and he gave her a smile that made her stomach drop and made her dimples crease with no effort on her part. He reached out an arm and slipped it around her shoulders, comfortably, and she snuggled up against his side as they walked, her own arm snaking around his waist.
As they marched on in silence, Lily's head rested briefly on James' shoulder.
James glanced down and resisted a sudden urge to plant a kiss on the top of her fiery crimson locks. She felt his gaze and her eyes flickered up to meet his and they both stopped walking abruptly, each struck with organelle restrictions.
Don't you dare, James Potter. She's your friend. Smile and look away.
She's so beautiful. I've never met someone so ... intensely radiant in my life. Her eyes can see straight through me. Her hair burns an impression in my heart. Her skin...it's so smooth and unblemished. I just want to stroke her cheek and run a finger down the length of her nose and ...
No, James. Think, man, think! What would that do to your friendship?
But...
Lily was having similar thoughts. She had a sudden desire to reach up and knot her hands in his fabulous hair, to press herself to him and kiss his lips as though there was no tomorrow. James' gaze flickered as he saw that fierce desire in her eyes and both quite suddenly had the same thought.
Time for a snog.
And, contrary as ever, a split second before each launched him or herself into the other's embrace, the magic registered the identical thoughts and opened an exit. The breeze registered on the pair's skins and they turned in surprise, to find themselves in an area that appeared to be deep in the forest.
It was dark, but the lagoon before them was letting off a faint, pale blue glow. The glow lit the area around and Lily gave out a small gasp as she saw three large, beautiful swans coming towards them.
***
A/N – *pouts* now why on earth did that stupid tunnel have to open up and stop a perfect moment from occurring? Don't ask me, I only write the damn story. I can't control the single-minded actions of those who are part of it.
I hope you liked that chappie, I did enjoy writing it. I rewrote the second half several times, because I kept getting annoyed with Remus' and Sirius' grand plan and deciding to change it. I hope you liked the one I settled on.
I'm sorry I decided to leave it where I did, but I thought it would be better for me to get this much up because the next part is going to go on for a while and I thought you might rather not wait for me to find the time to write it.
Speaking of which...mid-year exams start next week so I'm going to be a busy chickadee for the next two weeks. I am not going to be able to write at all during that time, so I'm sorry if this pisses you off. In fact, even after that, I'll be sick of doing anything remotely academic, so I'm going to need some pretty heavy motivation *hint hint*, lots of reviews ALWAYS manage to motivate me. I'll ask for five, but I really want more than that. I'm not a greedy girl, though, so if you're kind, you'll give me the reviews without me asking and I'll be so overwhelmed that I'll start to write straight away and have a ten page chapter done in a day and post it immediately.
REVIEWERS!!! CrazyforJames – Thankyou for your review and welcome to the bandwagon. Thanks for putting it on your favourites, it's always a big lift in my day!

Dancer24 – I hope this was a bit longer for you, that is something I have to work on. Thanks for the review, it was very sweet of you.
Jerseygirl03 – Thanks for the review, I hope you enjoyed the update.
Anyhoo, that's all I really had to say. I hope anyone else who has exams coming up do well in them and that everyone had a good Easter (which just goes to show how lax I really have been. I'm sorry, I'll try harder.)
Good Health to you all.
Lotsa Luv Lawwwren.
