Chapter Twenty Five
Thank God it's Friday.
Okay guys, just a note bold is lainie , italics is Livvyand normal is lily. other than that enjoy.
Friday, NEWT History of Magic. Binns was trying to teach them about the life of Godric Gryffindor, not very successfully. Notes were flying round the room.
Lainie, what are we going to do this weekend. Any ideas. Liv and I were thinking that we should maybe take the boys shopping and do 'couples' activities. What do you think.
Lily.
Who do you mean by a couple. Or do these activities not include me, huh.
You know.
No, enlighten me.
Stop being coy, you know who we mean. Trust Lily to come up with 'couples activities'.
Yeah, why doesn't she and James have couples activities, hint hint wink wink nudge nudge.
Stop it, I'm just trying to be fun.
Yeah, lots of fun.
Well, anything else. What have I got next. Anyone know cause I don't.
You have Potions, with me. Well, you guys can have couples activities, I will watch movies and drink beer, by myself. My ideal weekend, getting drunk and watching bad muggle movies.
Ohhhh, Lainie. Please, put us out of our agony. Just go and snog him silly. Now would be good. Ha ha ha.
Shut up.
Mwa ha ha ha ha.
Nice one lily, imagine that. Imagine Binns's face.
Imagine my face. Coming back to haunt Lily.
Mwa ha ha ha ha ha ha ha,.
The bell rung, clanging throughout the empty halls, as the girls collected their stuff and wandered out into the halls. They walked along together as all the little people scurried to get out of their way, ahh, the respect they got being seventh years.
"So, beer and movies is it." Lainie said, flicking her hair behind her shoulders, as she had it out. She was rather enjoying it, not that she would admit it.
Just then, Lily squealed, James had ran up behind her and pinched her arse.
"Hey," Lily said, leaning over and kissing him on the lips.
"Hi gorgeous," James said, slinging an arm round her shoulders and kissing her again.
Lainie rolled her eyes, flicking her hair over her shoulder dramatically. "Don't even try," she said to Sirius.
"Hey, wasn't going to, Ice Queen." He said, raising his hands in mock surrender.
"Good," she said, flicking her hair again.
"Lunch is now, right." James said, putting his other arm round Lainie so that now it looked like he had two girls.
"Yip."
"Right then. Lily, would you do the pleasure of accompanying me on a walk round the grounds." James said, pulling Lily away from the group.
They arrived at a little space in the grass. There was a small wicker picnic basket there set out on a blue rug. Lily's mouth dropped, could James possibly have done this for her.
"Come on and sit down." James said.
Lily obeyed, still in shock. James produced a little black box and handed it to her, his hazel eyes looking into her eyes. He reached over and pulled a strand of her hair out of her eyes. He just couldn't believe what he had done to possible have her like him.
Lily opened the box, James watching her intently, hoping like hell that she liked it. He had had to choose it himself. Lily flicked open the lid and opened the little card.
Lily, it read,
You are the most gorgeous girl I have ever met, sorry I cant write anything more romantic. Anyway, just a little gift to show how much you mean to me. Lets just say you were worth lusting after for six years.
Love James.
Lily looked up, her eyes full of something which made her look even more beautiful, well to James anyway. She lifted up the silver chain from the box. On it hung a little diamond (or something which looked like it.) heart.
Lily looked up at James, smiled an enormous and leaned over and kissed him. When they pulled apart, James wore a smile almost as broad of Lily.
"You chose that all by yourself." Lily said, questioning him.
"Would you believe me if I said yes." James said hopefully.
"No,"
"Fine, I got approval from someone after I bought it. But I chose it by myself." James said, proudly.
"Who helped you. Your mum?" Lily said and judging from James's mortified expression she had got it in one.
Lily roared with laughter, till James shut her up with a strawberry. Or two, or ten as it seemed to Lily as she nearly choked on it.
"Champagne Lily" James said gallantly.
"Go on then, Lily said skeptically.
James poured her a glass and she took a sip.
"Ha, that's so non alcoholic. I'm so touched that you tried though." Lily said, patting James on the head and kissing him on the cheek.
James grabbed her and pushed her over, then threw a berry at her. He was just laughing at her when she grabbed him and kissed him, for the second time in about ten minutes.
Lainie and Sirius were just walking along when they noticed the happy couple. They rolled their eyes at each other and continued to walk along.
"I'm kinda happy for those two, you know." Lainie said.
"Yeah, James is so stupidly happy and so is Lily." Sirius replied.
"Yes, oh well, still hope for you and me."
"Yeah, I think you have some potential."
"What."
"Well, I mean you hang round with me there must be a reason. You must like me or something." He said cheekily.
"You're just too suave for your own good." Lainie said.
"What, so you do like me." He said, surprised.
"I didn't say that." Lainie said, trying not to smile. Hey, I like this guy, I think, maybe I should make a move, she thought. Or maybe I should attempt to make a move. My moves are never a sure thing.
Did she just say that she liked me, he thought.
He turned around and pinned her against the castle wall.
Hell, Lainie thought, he is going to kiss me.
Heck, what if I kiss her he thought
Oh my god, she was thinking, she must really like him.
Well, here goes, he thought.
"Hi guys," Livvy said, walking round the corner and gasping to find Sirius looking as though he was going to kiss Lainie.
"Um, sorry." Remus said, appearing behind her.
"That's fine." Lainie said, turning red.
They all turned round and walked back to the castle, leaving whatever was going to happen there.
