Chapter 23 – A sickening awakening

It was Saturday morning and Lily woke up to the smell of frappuccino with a vanilla shot in it, her favorite. She pulled her arms out from under her covers and rubbed the sleep from her eyes. She opened her eyes and saw the cup of coffee on her bedside table with a plate of custard danishes next it. There was also a small vase full of fresh red roses.

"Good morning," she heard James familiar voice say and felt him sit down on the corner off the bed.

Lily sat up and yawned, then the night before came flooding back and she turned around, buried her face in her pillow and started sobbing all over again.

"Aww, Lily. Come on now, don't do that," James said standing up and sitting down right next to her.

"I'm sorry James, I just can't help it," Lily sobbed into her pillow.

"Come here Lily," James said opening his arms comfortingly.

Lily stopped sobbing into the pillow and let James pull her into a hug, then she started sobbing into his shoulder. She was crying so much that he could fell her salty tears slip down he back threw his shirt.

Lily pulled back; she shouldn't be letting Josh get to her. When she thought about she never really had liked him like she liked James. She wiped away most of the tears and forced a smile onto her face.

"There, that's my girl," James said as he brushed the rest of the tears off her cheeks.

Lily cheered up after she started drinking her coffee that James had brought he and announced that he had made it himself without magic. He forgot to add the part that Nilly had helped him after he forgot to put the top on the blender and the coffee had gone everywhere.

"You know what I need?" Lily said as she jumped up.

"A trip to Hogsmeade?" James asked hopefully.

"No Silly. I need a bath and then I am just going to laze around the whole day. Wait one second, I have a good idea," Lily said grinning.

"How long do I have to wait for your great idea?" James asked, disappointed that he wouldn't be spending his Saturday sneaking into Hogsmeade with Lily.

"Just until I finish my shower," Lily informed him as she jumped out of her bed.

"Can I join you?" James asked, getting his hopes up again.

"You perverted prat," Lily yelled with a joking glint in her eyes. She stuck her tongue out at him and then made her way to the bathroom after she had gotten her red robe with gold border.

"Fine, I will just go shower all by myself," James said frowning and left the room to go take a shower himself.

James shower took quicker and he got out of the shower. He walked into his room and dried off. He pulled on a pair of black boxers and pulled them on. He then grabbed his own red bathrobe with border and walked out into the common room that they shared.

He sat down on the loveseat and lay there as he listened to Lily's voice coming from her bathroom. She was singing the song he had sung after the play. James closed him eyes and just listened to her voice until he heard lily scream and then something fall.

James jumped off the couch and ran into the Lily's bathroom, through her room. He completely forgot that she was naked and taking a shower because he was too busy trying to be knight in shining armor.

Lily was laying on the floor of the bathroom naked with blood streaming down her leg from a cut in her thigh from where she was shaving. The rack that held all her bathing supplies and been knocked off the shower wall where it usually hung and the contents of the rack had scattered across the floor.

The second Lily saw James, she screamed again and jumped up looking for a towel. The closest thing there was to her was her bathrobe and that was hanging on the bathroom door, which was right behind James.

James just stood there staring at her as she tried to cover up her most private parts with her small hands. Need I say that it didn't work very well?

"James stop staring at me you bloody git," Lily screamed.

James grinned sheepishly, "Sorry, I forgot that you were taking a shower."

Then, to make matters worse Sirius showed up, "So what did I-" and then he spotted Lily.

"Get out!" Lily screamed.

This times James did leave the bathroom and he took Sirius with him. He shut the door once they were both out because James did not want to share the sight of Lily with his best mate.

James and Sirius had a short talk about the events of last night while Lily finished her shower. Then James told Sirius that today he was going to spend the day with Lily and that he thinks she just needs to relax for a while. Sirius agreed and promised to keep everyone away from the head boy's and head girl's rooms. James thanked his mate and then Sirius left.

James just sat on Lily's bed waiting for her to finish. He was kind of sad that she wasn't singing anymore because she had a beautiful voice. He was deep in thought when the bathroom door opened a crack and Lily's head poked out.

"Is he gone?" she asked, referring to Sirius.

"Yeah. He promised to have everyone leave you alone," James said from his perch on Lily's bed.

"Thanks," Lily said as she gave James a warm smile and then opened the bathroom door to reveal herself in just a robe.

James grinned and Lily pulled her robe tighter around her not wanting James to get any ideas because of what had just happened.

"So what is this special thing we are going to do while we laze around all day?" James asked as he bounced up and down on the bed lightly just like a little kid.

"You will just have to see, now leave so that I can change," Lily said.

"Fine just ruin my fun," James pouted and left the room.

Lily was finished quickly and came out in a pair of comfortable gray sweats and a big baggy black t-shirt with a dragon on it that had red eyes. Lily wasn't wearing a bra and James just sat there staring at her chest.

"You know my face is right her," Lily sniggered.

"Huh?" James asked, oblivious as he continued to stare.

Lily crossed her arms over her breast and then James finally looked up at her face.

"Do I get to find out now?" asked James eagerly.

"Yep," Lily said as she pulled out her wand, turned the glass table into a sturdy wood table and conjured up a television to go on it.

"What is that?" James inquired, pointing towards the television.

"It is called a television," Lily told him as she conjured up a remote into her hand.

"What's that?" James asked pointing towards the remote.

"It is a remote," Lily said and sat down next to James.

"What do they do?" he asked curiously.

"You can watch things on it like cartoons," Lily said, grinning as she turned on the television and went to a cartoon channel. Lily had always loved cartoons even though most people thought they were childish.

"Can you do anything else with it?" James asked as he looked at television.

"No, you just watch stuff. You want to lay around and watch movies all day?" Lily asked him.

"Movies?" James asked.

"Yeah you know kind of like wizarding photographs, but they have a plot like a play and actors and you watch them on a television or in a movie theatre," Lily tried to explain.

"Sounds interesting enough," James said as he settled down.

Lily conjured up a stack of DVDs and a VCR and looked through the DVDs. "What should we watch?" Lily asked.

"Anything," James said. As long as James got to sit in a room, share a couch with Lily and not be interrupted for the whole day, he was fine with watching anything.

"Ok, we can watch one of my favorites; Life as a House," Lily said as she put the movie in and then came back to sit down next to James. She used her wand to turn off all the lights and close the curtains so that they could see well. (/N – Life as a House is like the greatest movie ever! If you haven't seen it, then you should!)

James liked this day more and more; now he got to sit in a pitch-black room with Lily Evans, on a velvet loveseat with no one else in sight.

Lily snuggled up to James and rested her head on his shoulder. James rested his head on top of hers and wrapped his arm about her waist. He absentmindedly spell her hair, which smelled like pears.

"You hair smells good," James told Lily just as the movie started.

"Thank you," Lily said and gave a small smile.

The movie started, but James wasn't paying much attention. He was just thinking about Lily and how wonderful it was to have her in his arms again.

"Can I kiss you?" James asked out of the blue.

"What?" Lily asked, clueless, because she was so absorbed in the movie.

"I said could I kiss you?" James asked again.

"Sure, whatever," Lily said not paying attention at all because she loved this movie so much.

James leaned down and pressed his lips onto hers. He felt her stiffen from surprise at first, but then relax and start to enjoy herself. James started out by teasing her with short soft kisses. Then he started to make then last a little bit long. James felt Lily pick her arms up off her lap and wrap them around his next. He slowly shifted his weight so that he was facing her move and then slipped his other arm around her, pulling her in closer to them.

Lily could feel James' heartbeat against her chest and James could feel Lily's heartbeat against his chest. James started gently nibbling on Lily's lower lip as she let out a soft moan from her throat. Lily pulled back and sat on James so that she was straddling him. Lily looked down at him with a smile on her face. James pulled her up against him and began to kiss her again.

This time James let Lily lead. Lily kissed him and varied the pressure until finally she parted her lips and let her tongue through, begging entrance to James' mouth. He teased he for a little bit and then finally let her in. She slowly traced circles around the tip of his tongue. This time it was James' turn to moan. Lily giggled at him. James just smiled and continued to his her.

Lily took her arms from around James' neck and placed them gentle on his bare chest. 'Wow he has nice muscles,' Lily thought she pulled herself closer to him.

James had now gone from kissing her on the lips to kissing her on the next as she pressed herself into him gentle. When he could tell she wasn't expecting it, he playfully bit her on the neck.

Lily started giggling and playful shoved James as she pulled away from him. "I am going to continue so watch the movie," she informed him as she slid off his lap and returned to sitting next to him.

"Hey I was having fun," James pouted like a little boy.

They continued to watch the movie and when the part where they boy and girl are making out in the shower, James spoke, "Hey why couldn't we do that?"

"You got to see me naked and make out with me, isn't that enough for one day?" Lily asked him.

"No, I want to do something more," James said, raising a suggestive eyebrow.

"And what would that be?" Lily asked him as she raised an eyebrow as well.

James awkwardly responded, "Well…erm…I was wondering if…erm…you wanted to have sex."

Lily's jaw dropped open, but she quickly saw caught herself and closed. She slipped a little farther away from James when she notice that not only had he asked her have sex with him, but there was quite a large bulge in his boxers.

Lily sat there uncomfortable and after a few minutes had passed she finally spoke, "Well to completely honest with you, I have never had sex before."
