JAMES POV

The next day, as she was walking and patrolling the halls making sure everyone was in bed, I stood under my invisibility cloak. When she passed me, I grabbed her around the waist, and swung off my cloak. She yelped. Then saw me, and smiled.

"James?" She asked.

"Yep. Shhhh!!!" I whispered. Lily looked so cute when she was confused. "I want to show you something Lil!"

She nodded curiously. "Ok James."

I covered us with the cloak, took out my map, and said, "I solemnly swear I am up to no good."

Her eyes shone excitedly at what her eyes saw. There were dots for all the people at Hogwarts, and showed secret passageways to many places outside Hogwarts. "Wow!" She breathed.

"Yeah." I whispered proudly. "Me, Sirius, Remus, and Peter made it by ourselves secretly. No one else has ever seen it besides you."

"So where are we going?" Lily's emerald eyes were happily looking at mine.

I grinned. "Hogsmeade. Care for a butterbeer? My treat."

LILY'S POV

I shook my head. "I can pay for myself, you don't have to."

James grinned. "It'll be like a token of my friendship."

I laughed. "Ok then. Lead on!"

James lead me to a statue, and said, "Ratwing!" The statue turned over, and revealed a secret path. He gestured for me to follow. I stepped into the tunnel trustingly.

Finally, James stopped, and pushed up, opening a trap door from underneath. We both got under his cloak, and slipped into the store above us. James had a tight yet gentle grip on my shoulders.

JAMES POV

"Well here we are!" I whipped off the cloak when I was positive no one was watching. I strolled to the counter.

"Two butterbeers please!"

I got the butterbeers and brought them over to the table Lily was saving. She was waiting there patiently, a faraway look in her beautiful eyes. Lily saw me, and broke into a wide, happy smile.

"Thanks James!" Lily laughed happily.

She was so perfect, sweet, nice, beautiful. Guys looked at her when she walked, but she wasn't a stand out girl. Lily daintily sipped her frizzy butterbeer.

"So, as much fun as it is, why did you chose to show me the map and not my other friends?" She asked. I was taken aback.

"Well…well…because…I trust you." That was true. She was the closest I've ever gotten to a girl. She listened. Other girls just giggle and admire you. She was sensitive.

Lily leaned over and twinked my nose playfully. "I trust you too James." She laughed her gentle laugh, and looked into my eyes. "You have such beautiful eyes James" she continued, "They're this awesome shade of blue, and the blue changes into light and dark, depending on your mood." She laughed again. "Come on! Let's go to the nearby beach!" ((a/n-ok I'm just pretending there's a beach haha))

Lily held my hands carefully, and pulled me outside the café we were at. I followed as she walked breezily, singing without a care in the world. She stopped finally, when we reached the bay.

"Don't you just love the beach?" she sighed, closing her eyes. Her hands were still locked with mine. Her long redish orangish hair blew behind us. She was an angel, I decided there and then, she was a "star person" ((A/n-teehee if anyone read stargirl by jerry something then you would know!))

I closed my eyes too, allowing the breeze to bring me where I wanted. I listened to the sound of the sea, and the seagulls calling me. The waves rolling back and forth… My brain went away for those few precious moments. All my worries were gone. This is the sea, the mighty sea. I could feel the sand beneath my feet, and seashells scattered on the floor. I had no more worries!!!!

((Haha you could tell I'm a sea person. The sea doesn't exist in JKR's book. I made it up randomly. Next chapter will be up and ready. Same as last time. 2 reviews or no update! Muahahaha I'm so ebil! So do yourself a favor and press that pretty purple button in the corner! REVIEW!!!))
