Chapter 2 – INSIDE THE ROOM OF REQUIREMENTS

"So Lily, what do you say about a little game of wizard chess?" Toni asked back at the common room. Outside was silhouetted with a bit of orange, disappearing slowly as the sun descended from the heavens.

"Oh, sorry, I can't. I've got to work with Potter on our potions. I'm just waiting for him to go down from their dormitory." Lily said.

"You don't have to wait long, he's here." Toni said pointing at someone behind Lily. Lily looked back and saw James just a few feet away from here, patiently waiting for her. Lily stood up from where she was seating. "I'll see you later." Toni said.

"Bye Toni." Lily called and went to approach James who was carrying something silver under his arm.

"Ready?" James asked smiling unusually.

"What's that for?" Lily asked pointing at the silver clothing material.

"It's my invisibility cloak. Just in case we go beyond our curfew. Don't want Filch spotting us now, do we?" James said. Although Lily took this as a precaution for her safety as well, she pondered at the thought of how they would be staying that late since they could roam around the castle until about eleven in the evening. Nevertheless, she was thankful that James looked this through. 'Maybe he is not that careless as you could think.' Lily thought as they walked to the enchanted stairs.

They passed on so many floors and tapestry. Lily remained silent having believed that James would lead her to the place soon. "Here it is," James said when he led her to a stretch of blank wall. "Now, I need you to concentrate on this, 'we need a place for potion making'. Got it? Just think of it very hard and only about it. Follow me.'

"Wait, wait." Lily said. "Is this some kind of a joke? This hall is empty except for the portrait of that foolish Barnabas the Barmy. Where do you expect we go into when we think about that?"

"Trust me; I know what I am doing. Just think 'a place for potion making'" James said impatiently. He took Lily by the arm and led her back and forth for three times along the stretch. Lily had nothing to do but to truly trust him. She thought very hard of potion making until James made and abrupt stop. Lily collided softly behind him.

"What's up?" she asked heatedly.

"We go there." He pointed at a high door at the wall. Lily would bet anything that that door wasn't there earlier.

"What's......What is it?" Lily asked uncertainly. Though she was actually thinking 'where is it', for it came out of no where.

"That, my dear, is called the Room of Requirements. It would appear for the person's needs." James said proudly. It was obvious that he wants very much to impress Lily of how great he was.

"How then did you stumble upon it?" Lily asked suspiciously.

"I really needed a place to do the Polyjuice Potion, that's when I discovered it. I then told about it to my friends." James said vaguely.

"Are you that desperate for a Polyjuice Potion?" Lily asked him frowning. "Come on, what do you do with it really?" They stepped inside the room where there were tons of shelves with different ingredients for potions. There were also lots of books for potion making. There are sets of cauldrons waiting to be used in the idle of the room.

"Why do you want to know so much?" James asked sitting infront of the cauldron.

Lily was by the books, searching for the one that they needed. "If you don't tell me, I'll tell Dumbledore that you've been brewing up Polyjuice Potions, unaware by the school."

"Okay," James said. "I've been making it in order to gain access in the Slytherin room."

"You are not telling me the truth." Lily said approaching him and laying the book down the table.

"Yeah? And how would you suppose to know that?" James asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Because, Potter, you are not looking directly at me." Lily said as a matter-of-factly.

She was right though, James have been avoiding eye contact with her. James couldn't do it anymore so she looked up at her. she was looking down at him with a strict impression behind her green eyes. Though it could be very scary and melting, James could see the passion and care deep inside it. "Damn, she is very beautiful." James thought to himself. He couldn't help but admire her, her flaming red hair, falling astonishingly behind her. Her soft face, making her structure pretty. James felt heat rising up, "Well...because..."he said not removing his eyes off her. His throat was very dry. He gave a deep breath and said hesitantly, "I like someone very much and it's my only way of communicating with her without being such an idiot. I really, really like her. I disguise myself as someone else that she could possibly talk to nicely." He waited for Lily's reaction.

'What if she knows that it was her?' James thought much nervously. Lily's strict face began to fade and show a very caring emotion. "Oh, that's so sweet. I got to hand it to you, there is a warm heart inside after all." She said laughing a little. James laughed with her for a while. "But that is a bit stupid of you though. Why don't you just tell her you like her then maybe you don't need to brew this everytime you feel like talking to her?"

"I can't, because maybe she'll despise me even more. Or she could do stuffs." James said.

"Or maybe not. How do you expect your bond with her to grow stronger when she doesn't know how you feel about her?" Lily said wisely.

"I don't expect it too."

"Why not? Come on, it won't be that bad. Do I know here?" Lily asked.

"Yes, you do, but I can't tell you. And I tell me that you won't tell anyone about anything." James said, much nervous than before.

"Alright, I won't tell anyone," she promised. "But a bit of advice, tell her how you feel."

"Whatever you say, Evans." said James. His voice came back to its usual vile self. "But of course, I don't have to listen to you." he added cruelly.

The pleasant expression on Lily's face changed back into its strict self. "I didn't tell you to listen to me." She said in a high voice, a voice she only used on him.

"Could we just start this thing?" James said impatiently opening the fire below the cauldron. "I don't like talking about her." Lily didn't say anything. She got up and went to the shelf of ingredients, arranged in alphabetical order. She took out a bottle of leeches and knotgrass and went back to the table where James was pouring something unto the cauldron.

"What did you put?" Lily asked him while opening the bottle of knotgrass.

"It's the fluxweed, it needs twenty-one days." James said.

"You take Divinations, right? When would the next full moon be?" Lily asked him.

James waved his wand at an open area. A calendar seemed to form. "It's two weeks from now." He answered mot adding anything.

"Right, we would get the lacewings flies by then." Lily said. She took out the right amount of knotgrass and placed it in the shimmering liquid of the cauldron.

"We need for that to settle down for about an hour then we could add the leeches immediately. We could leave it as it is after the leeches." James pointed out.

"What do we do by then?" Lily asked him. She does want him to do all the thinking.

"I don't know maybe we could just talk?" James said sitting at the coach that appeared at the corner. His suggestion was more of a question than a statement. Lily checked above the cauldron before following him.

She bounced to sit down at the sofa beside him. "What do you want to talk about?"

"Uh anything," James said uncertainly. This was a very good opportunity for him to talk to her privately for a whole hour without interruptions. He prayed silently that he does not mess this up for either of them. "Quidditch, maybe?" he suggested after thinking for a good topic.

"Yeah, I love Quidditch, I've loved it for ages." She said, her eyes practically beaming at the thought.

"You do?" I've never knew that before. How come you didn't try out for the team?" James asked her.

"Uh, well..." she said looking a bit worried. "To tell you the truth, it's because you are on the team itself. It's pretty obvious that I hate you and I couldn't stand you as well. With team practice every week, it means I'll be spending more time with you."

James felt his heart sink. Everyone knows she hates him.. But everytime he hears it, he couldn't accept the fact as well. "Why do you hate me so much?" he asked trying to keep the conversation going.

"Let me state that much clearer," she said. "I don't actually hate you, I hat what you do. You always hex anyone. It is as if you owned the place. It's hard not to hate, you know? Couldn't just go and act normally? You do make me sick." She said clearly but sincerely as though worried for him. "I'm sorry to say it to you, but I've always wanted to tell it to you ever since, in case you didn't know."

"That's quite alright. But if I do change my ways, would you consider going out with me?" he said hopefully, his eyes a bit pleading.

"Why do you want to go out with me so much?" she asked laughing. James saw her smile once more. "Unless of course....."

"NO! Of course not, how could it be you, Evans?" James said.

"Ha, I know it isn't me. I know that you hate me as much as I do hate you. I always embarrass you and stop you from doing whose things you do. I think I am also the one that gets you in trouble." Lily said. James wanted so dearly to tell Lily that it was also her that lightens his day. "Why don't you ask out those idiots who follow you around?" Lily asked him when he didn't say anything.

"Nah, they are not much of a challenge. And you, when I get you to say 'yes', my dear rival, then maybe I've achieved something else." he lied cruelly.

"That's it, huh? Then I truly say no. You just want them to know that you defeated me." She answered smirking. James didn't say anything again. 'That was a stupid lie' he thought. How he lost a point more in getting lily to be his once more. "So, tell me about her." Lily said.

"About whom?" he asked blankly.

"About her, your girl," Lily said.

"I told you already, I don't want talking about her." he said.

"No, just tell me what she's like." Lily said smiling at him. She couldn't believe herself that Potter could do things for a girl. She couldn't even believe that Potter have a heart to fall inlove as well. She looked straight at him with a smile, waiting for his response. James looked at her as well. He couldn't help but notice the glee she is giving off.

"Ah, well, for one thing, she is absolutely amazing. She completes my day. It wouldn't' be a day without me seeing her. She would never know that I like her unless someone told her. We are not really that close. I wouldn't tell you what house she's in or what she looks like. But I assure you, she is very beautiful. Each time you look deep in her eyes, you could almost see what she's thinking. You could sometimes see her soul. I think she never dated anyone, although every boy I know asked her out. She knows that she is pretty so she carries herself with a lot of confidence. But she is humble enough when she does it. Oh damn, I think she is my life as well. I fell in love with her the moment I saw her once more on the train ride to Hogwarts in our third year. She is totally the one for me." He said. His face was scarlet but he never left Lily's eyes. She watched him with her sweet, sympathetic smile. James felt great talking bout the one he loved directly at the one. It was the first time he did so too. Although he sometimes mention it to the Marauders his crush on Lily, he did it simply but never this deep. That's what they knew about it, only a crush. But deep inside, his heart was boiling for passion for this woman, the woman seated beside him. If only it wouldn't hurt her, he would very much likely have kissed her right now with fiery.

"You must really, really love her. Maybe it's more than love actually. It is something very, very strong." Lily said.

"Yes, it must be. So how about you, what's your love life? I've shared mine, it's your turn now." James said.

"Oh me, I have a pretty boring life. I don't have a love life. I'm all alone in this world and it isn't getting much better. I'm not inloved with anyone as well. It is the seventh and last year at Hogwarts and I'm not hooked up with anyone yet. But it is my choice, so it is my fault as well. But one could always daydream about their own Romeo who would love them more than they love themselves." Lily said.

"Who's Romeo, I might ask?" James said, thinking of anyone that goes by the name.

"I forgot, sorry. It's on a muggle book entitled 'Romeo and Juliet' by a muggle that goes by the name Shakespeare. I have one in the dormitory, maybe I could lend it to you. It's really good. It's two lovers separated by the wrath of their parents and was forced to love in secret." Lily said dreamily.

"So you want someone to love you that is forbidden?" James joked

"No, but I would love someone to love me that much." Lily said. "Right," James said. It gave him hope once more. Lily is free. He could love her like this Romeo guy for his Juliet. Her looked at his watch and exclaimed.

"Oh, it is way pass the hour. We should add the leeches now and get going." Lily stood a walked over to the cauldron. She scooped down the correct amount of leeches and stirred it at the right angle and count.

"There, we could leave it by the way it is. Just better hope that no one goes walking back and fourth along the hall thinking of a potion place." She said. James gave little laugh.

"Better get going,' he said.

"Right, see you then, Potter." Lily said. She opened the door knob and was about to go out until a hand gripped her wrist. She was forced to stop and look back. "What?" she asked impatiently.

"It's 11:30 in case you didn't know. You could get caught by Filch or something and the tower is at the other side of the castle." James said warningly.

"What then do you suggest I should do?" Lily asked cruelly but unintentionally. It just went out in that manner.

"That is what I brought this for, didn't i?" James said showing his invisibility cloak up. Lily looked both satisfied and exasperated. Now come here." He added Lily hesitated for a while before approaching him solemnly. James had spread the invisibility cloak on top of them both. He had slouched just a little and has his arms just above Lily's shoulders to support the invisibility cloak so they could move popularly. Lily was leading the way and him just behind her.

For James, this is a very romantic and sweet moment. He could smell the beautiful scent of Lily's dark red hair swaying behind her. It smelled so fragrant and fresh that you could die just smelling it for too long. James took a glance on top of Lily's shoulder so he could see their location. Good, they were still a bit far. It means they would stay in this position for a little more while.' thought James.

Lily was walking infront and felt a bit awkward. She could somehow fell James heavy breathing behind her. Though James wasn't actually doing anything to her, she somehow felt frightened at the amazing fact that a guy is walking so much close behind her. They turned as corner where they both found themselves on a hall with Filch somewhere just ahead. Lily was about to squeal but James said "Be quiet," before she even tried. She then remembered that they were under the invisibility cloak. It then hit her. Why did James offer to help her get to the common room without being caught? Wouldn't it give him pleasure that Lily got detention because of a night stroll? Wouldn't it be good for him to hear that Lily Evans was responsible for a few points missing from the Gryffindor house? After all the detention and telling of she got him into, he still offered to help her. Lily whispered the password when they finally reached the portrait of the Fat Lady.

"Ah, where are you? What are you?' the Fat Lady asked in nervousness at not seeing what just gave her the password. Nevertheless, the portrait swung open.

"Finally, we're here.' Lily exclaimed when James removed the invisibility cloak and when they're inside the common room. James was thinking along the opposite lines of what she just said. He didn't want it to be over.

"Okay, tomorrow?" James asked her. "Eyes, we need to mix that fluxweed for 21 consecutive days." Lily said. She walked to the staircase of her dormitory.

"Goodnight Potter.' She said before going up and out of sight. James stood there, alone in the dark common room. The only light present was of the little remains of the fire earlier in the fireplace. He didn't even have a chance to say goodnight to her. He glanced at the staircase of the girl's dormitory before thoroughly disappearing to their own dormitory.
