~~~~Boy, did I not come through on my goal. It's been almost a year since I
last updated this. But that won't happen again, because I hate it when
people don't finish their stories, so I am definitely going to finish this.
I'M SORRY!

"Where the hell did James go?" Lily said confused. She had just been about to find out what had been driving her crazy the last few days when James...disappeared.
"Was it something I said?" she thought, going over everything she'd said to James. And when she decided it was nothing she'd done, Lily thought, 'Maybe James didn't want to tell me what's being said.' And that thought made Lily think more. What could possibly be so bad that James wouldn't want to tell her? And where did he go?
Lily went to investigate.

Twenty minutes later, James was still wrestling with himself, trying to find a way to tell Lily that people thought they were 'together'. "What am I supposed to do?" he whispered to himself. "I can't tell Lily what I'm thinking—that'd be too embarrassing." James eliminated the choice from his hand by lowering his thumb. He had four fingers remaining.
"I won't tell Lily what girls have been saying about weddings.....that's just weird."
Another finger went down.
"Writing it down would only make me feel stupider."
His middle finger fell.
"Memory charm.....too risky."
Down went his ring finger.
"That leaves.....ask Sirius. Oh, what have I gotten myself into?!!"
But even though James had decided what he wanted to do, he wouldn't be able to. It was because at that moment Lily entered the room, looking a bit worried.
* * * * * * * * * * * *
James decided to act casual. "Hey Lily." He said, still lying in the middle of the room staring up at the burning candles that, with the help of the sun, lit the room.
"Hey James." Lily replied. "I came up here to—" "Wanna go to Hogsmeade?" James cut Lily off before she could finish her sentence.
"Uh....." Lily thought for a second and decided that if she wanted to get an answer out of James she better go. And it did sound like fun. "Sure. Let's go."
* * * * ** *** * James hopped up and grabbed his money, stopping to check his hair in the mirror and try to flatten it. At this, Lily couldn't stop a small laugh. "What's so funny?" James asked, pretending to be angry.
"I just imagined you with normal hair." Lily replied, still giggling a bit.
"I can't really see how that would be funny." James replied. He was starting to feel like himself again, bantering with Lily like always.
"I can—you'd look like a....a very snobbish fox hunter."
"I'm not even gonna ask." James said.

I'm kinda tired, even though this isn't even two pages. Just review please. I'll work harder next chapter.
