Chapter 19: Who said, that Sundays couldn't be sweet?

Lily woke up that morning with the sound of breathing on her neck, giving a handful of goose bumps. She shifted and a small moan came from behind her. Smiling, she gently pushed a cloak off her body and stumbled to her feet.

She spun around and gazed lovingly at James on the couch. His hair was messed; the glasses were in his hand that was dangling over the couch's back. There were small shimmery pink kiss marks on his cheeks and she grinned, knowing it wasn't a dream after all.

' He's so innocent', she thought with a flutter in her heart.

His cloak was thrown on himself, and his other hand was where she just lay a minute ago. Dropping to her knees close to him soundlessly sleeping, she brushed away some black hair from his eyes.

She shut her eyes and gave a morning kiss to his forehead," Morning."

Smiling her best within years she walked up the stairs slowly, and taking peeks at her sweet James on the couch.

A grin played upon his lips downstairs," Morning to you too.."

..

Lily quietly opened the dormitory room door, and shut it behind her. She spun around and tiptoed past the small curtain shut four-poster beds, and the ash-burning fireplace. She reached the girls bathroom with four separate showers and mirrors, and soundlessly shut the cherry-oak door.

Letting her clothes fall down to her feet she walked over to the small table, which held fluffy white towels. She picked up the one with a loopy L for Lily and smelled it. It smelled of ginger and vanilla, which always woke her up.

She threw it over her left shoulder, and walked over to a shower with a stain glass door. She placed the towel on the door, and stepped inside. With a snap of her fingers, the shower started and the room soon filled with steam.

The soft warm water splashed her face, as she sung sweetly.

"Don't tell me how I had a vision that this day would come to be. Call it luck, call it intuition, here I am (here we are), isn't that enough. For a little bit of reality, fate is good fate can be real. If you believe it's what you feel, oh, what a moment. When I looked into your eyes, I knew I got the prize. Oh baby, what a sweet surprise, it only took a minute, baby to let you in my life. It only took a minute, for me to realize. It only took a minute, and I knew just what to do. It only took a minute, to fall in love with you.."

.

James, grinning like an idiot, stumbled up to his room and opened the red curtain four-poster bed. He shoved off some clothes onto the floor, and flopped onto his bed.

He gazed up at the ceiling, to only picture her warm smile again. Closing his eyes he felt last nights butterfly kisses, all over his chest and face. Just the thought made his hair stick up at the back of his neck.

He finally got what he wanted, for the past seven years of his life. Lily Marie Evans, sweet love. He wasn't joking when he told her his feelings; it was really from the bottom of his heart.

His curtains opened and a serious Sirius gazed down at him," Where were you, huh?"

James began to grin stupidly again," No where Padfoot, no where."

" Oh come on, you only get that look when Evans talks to you-"

"- Do you really want to know?"

" Does it involve her?"

"Take a long, good, hard guess."

" Great.. I'm never going to hear the end of her, will I?"

" Nope, I love her. But, you have to keep this a secret. Seriously I don't want this out. And I know of your gossip power, Padfoot."

" Why?"

" You know what would happen. Remember last time, I dated that one girl and the next morning, girls had cornered her-"

"Yeah, poor girl, she had a lovely face too."

" This is serious- shut up Padfoot."

Sirius looked as if going to tell a joke about his name," Fine, spoilsport," he muttered.

.

It was a cozy Sunday morning, and mostly everyone was lounging around the castle. The library held a few people who were finishing up their homework, and others studying for coming soon tests.

Mostly the common rooms held dozy people playing games, finishing some work, practicing spells, or even just reading by the crackling fire.

Lily sat on the couch reading her book again; she tried, but James seemed to pop into her mind, again.

Nanea and Ashley were sleeping on the floor, curled up in blankets and hot chocolates of theirs were on the table. Lindsey was in the library, looking for that one book her and Coral were fighting over.

So pretty much, Lily had the common room to herself. An evil grin spread on her face, as she placed her book down on the table.

She got to her feet, and headed to the boys' dorms. Putting her right foot on a step, she took a last glance around the common room. And with a small flash, she was jogging up the staircase. She soon faced a door with names carved on it.

' The room of thee fellow Marauders, Prongs, Padfoot, Moony, and Wormtail'

She gave a small smile at their little sign, and pushed the creaky door open. She gasped; it wasn't like the other dorms she saw before.

There was a round fireplace in the middle of the room, and all five beds were facing it. The walls were stone, but they held moving pictures of magic and Quidditch players. The beds were larger than the girls, and had deep ruby red silky curtains on each side of the bed. The bed headboards were mahogany, and had initials carved on it.

She laughed, at one bed that had JP surrounded by carvings of Lilies. Smiling, she walked over to the only bed with the curtains shut, and pulled them apart. She nearly blushed at his cuteness.

His hair was still messed, and you still could see some sparkling substance smeared on his cheeks. The wiry glasses of his were now on his night table, along with a stolen snitch.

Walking over to the side of his bed, she crawled onto the bed and snuggled in his arms. He seemed to know she was there, and put his arms around her small waist. Her smile was pressed into his chest, and her hands slowly crept onto his back.

A muffled groan came from his mouth, as her fingers crawled up his back. He got up, with his eyes still shut, and pulled his white under shirt off. He flopped back onto the bed and pulled her on top of him.

Finally, he opened his eyes and gazed up at her. The long red hair was dangling in his face and she seemed to have a bright white light on her. He dreamt of her like this, but never thought it would be all too real.

She was his heaven, and earth.

Smiling, he sat up and gave a kiss to her," This must me a dream."

She laughed, as he continued to kiss her exposed shoulders and neck," Then it's a very good dream."

"I'd say so."

He cupped the side of her face and caressed it," You're the one I only need- and I know you like the back of my hand."

"How so?" She whispered, while kissing his lips quickly.

"I know that you sing to yourself when you're happy, and you bite your tongue gently when you're concentrating during a lesson or a test. When you are bored you take your left shoe off, and start to play with it with your foot. I know that your middle name is Marie, and that you despise your sister with greatness."

Lily smiled," You know a lot about me, don't ya?"

He grinned and carried on," - I know that you were born in April, the twenty-first to be exact. You had brownish red hair when you were little, and it grew- (he let his hand run through her hair smoothly, and she closed her eyes while sighing) -to a deep ocean red. And you love anything that is beautiful, especially me, and you twirl your finger in your hair when you're nervous or jealous.."

Lily blushed, but still grinned.

"-Enough said. I love you. You make me do and say stupid things when I'm around you. Everything I say or see, or even think about you, is every bit why I love you. "

" Aww, I love you too James."

"If you love me, can you kiss me? Please?"

" Do you need to ask?" She grinned, while leaning down and pressing her lips against his.
