Chapter 4
The Date and James' Gift
Lily took James' arm and they began to walk to Hogsmeade for the long awaited date.It didn't take them long to get there, because they both had a fast walking pace and they both were very excited for this date. This date will be the second one that they have had with each other.
" So, I planned on going to the Three Broomsticks for dinner, but is there anything you want to do first?" James asked with a broad smile on his face.
" Well, I did want to go to the sweet shop but we can do that later, Ok?" Lily said with a smile equally big
" Whatever makes you happy makes me happy, ready to head for the Three Broomsticks?" James asked
" Sure, you lead," she answered
Now they were headed for the Three Broomsticks, this time walking a little slower watching the couples pass by.When they had reached the door James stepped in front of Lily and opened the door motioning for her to walk in and said," Ladies first," once again putting on the heartstopping smile.
" Thank you sir," Lily said playfully
" Let's go sit over there in the round booth in the corner," Lily said pointing her finger in the direction of the table.
" Okay, sure," James said as he started towards the table.
Lily slid into the booth on the left side and James took the right.
"So what do you want to drink?" James asked
" Um I think I will take a butterbeer," Lily said
" Okay then I will take one too, Waiter Please, Over Here!" James said directing his attention to a young male waiter.
" Hello, sir how may I help you this evening?" he said
" Hi, Um we would like two butterbeers please," requested James polietly
" I will be right back with your order in just a minute," the waiter stated and was off to get the couples drink
It was no longer than two minutes and the waiter was back, carrying a tray with two foaming butterbeers.
" Here you go ma'am," he started giving Lily her butterbeer
" Thank you sir," Lily said
" and here is your drink sir," the waiter finished handing the drink to James
" Thank you very much," he said
" Can I get anything else for you?"
" Um Lily do you want anything else?" James asked
" No, I think this will do for now," Lily said smiling at the waiter
" Okay then, enjoy your drinks," he said and walked away
Lily began sipping her butterbeer, but suddenly stopped when James gently grabbed her hand.
" What is it James, is there something wrong?" Lily asked looking concerned.
" No, no, no, theres nothing wrong," James said with a smile " I just want to give you something, and I wanted to get your attention first," he began to reach into his pocket, pulling out a small scarlet box in the shape of a rectangle, it had gold wrighting on the front of the box.
" Here read this and then open it," James said now smiling even larger than before.
Lily was supprised that he had gotten her a present, the box was beautiful she loved the present already and she hadn't even read it or looked at what was inside. Lily began to read the golden engravings on the top of the box it said;
This gift is from James Potter to Lily Evans. Inside of this box is a golden love rose, it symbolizes James love for Lily and will stay the color of gold as long as he loves you. If he begins to like someone else and is untrustworthy the love rose in this box will turn gray, f you dont love him anylonger but he still loves you it will turn red, but if both of you become untrustworthy or hate each other for goodness forbids some reason, it will turn black as coal. James has specially bought this for you as a symbol of his eternal love for you, Lily Evans.
Lily couldnt belive what she just read it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen in her life. She was overjoyed by how sweet and romantic James was. Lily began to open the box with trembling fingers.When she opened it the rose began to glow with goldness, it was so bright that Lily, at first had to squint.
" Oh James, its beautiful," she said, as a tear ran down her gental loving face.
" Not as beautiful as you my love," James said pulling her into a passionate kiss.
The kiss seemed to last for hours, but really it was a little over 6 minutes.
" James I love you too, more than you could ever dream," she said leaning her head on his chest
" I have loved you ever since I first set eyes on your beautiful face," he said putting his arms around her lovingly
"and I will always love you Lily," James said
" And I will always love you James Potter," Lily said kissing him passionately on the lips
