Midnight Excursions

"Truth or dare?"

The clock on the night stand read 12:03 A.M. After a nice, long nap they had all headed into the boys room for tequila and an extremely embarrassing game of truth or dare.

"Truth."

"Who's the first girl you ever shagged?"

Remus shook his head defiantly.

"Alrighty then," Autumn said, handing him a shot glass.

He drained the glass in one quick gulp.

"Now answer the question," Ariel pestered.

"Ok," Remus said, slightly slurred. "Holly Hemlock."

All three girls gasped while the guys chuckled.

"I never really liked her," Lily commented.

"Yeah, me either," Autumn agreed.

"Your turn Lilers," Sirius exclaimed.

"Oh Lord. Truth," she said.

"Hmmm..." Remus contemplated. "Have you ever had dirty thoughts about James?"

Lily laughed and reached out for a shot.

After she had swallowed it she whispered, "Yes."

Autumn and Ariel began to giggle uncontrollably and James' drink almost went out his nose.

"When?" James asked.

"In third year. What can I say? I was desperate and one of my best guy friends was a hottie!"

"I never would have thought it," Remus said disbelievingly.

"Truth of dare?" Lily asked Sirius.

Pondering for a moment, Sirius answered, "Dare."

"I dare you to take a drink out of the toilet," Lily said smiling sweetly.

"Awesome dare!" Ariel exclaimed, giving Lily a high five.

"I'll do it," Sirius said, "but I won't like it."

Taking a drink of tequila, Sirius went into the bathroom, and took a swig of toilet water.

"Hmm..." Sirius said. "Not bad."

"Ewww!" Autumn squealed. "That's so gross!"

"Truth or dare?" Sirius asked Lily.

"Dare," Lily said, deciding to spice things up a bit.

"I dare you to make out with Ariel," Sirius replied, grinning like a wild maniac.

"Absolutely not!" Lily exclaimed. "I think I need about a ton more tequila in me to even consider doing something like that!"

"Eh, it was worth a shot mate," James said.

After a few more rounds of questions, and a lot more shots of tequila, the game truth or dare finally ended. The six were currently sitting in silence when suddenly, Sirius jumped up and yelled, "I have a great idea!"

"Do you remember what happened all the other times you had great ideas?" asked James.

Sirius, paying no attention to his comment, continued, "Let's go swimming!"

After a quick change they were all running down the stairs to the pool.


The pool went from three to twelve feet, had a diving board and a slide, and many lounge chairs scattered around it's perimeter. Sirius, of course, was the first to jump in.

"It's actually not that cold," Sirius commented.

"Duh," Autumn replied, "it's the middle of July and we're in Florida; of course it's not cold."

The others followed in suite and jumped in too.

It was a beautiful night. There were hardly any clouds overhead and only slight breezes passed every once and a while.

While Sirius played on the slide, Ariel, Autumn, and Remus were seeing who could make the biggest canon ball, Lily was standing in the five foot area of the pool with her head resting over the edge, and James was struggling with his evil mind.

James made his way over to Lily, who didn't look so good. "Are you okay?" James asked concerned.

"I'm fine," Lily said with a weird haze in her eyes. "It's just that I've never drank anything stronger than a weeks old orange juice."

"Oh," James said laughing. "Lily Evans is finally corrupted."

"I guess you could say that," Lily replied looking at him.

James placed a hand on her shoulder. "It will be fine" he reassured. "I know this spell that helps cure hangovers."

Lily, who didn't listen to a word James had just said, only seemed to notice his warm hand resting on her shoulder.

Lily looked up into James' hazel eyes, not aware that their faces seemed to be getting closer.

Their lips finally met and it seemed too perfect to be real. The kiss began nice and gentle, but as it went on it became more demanding.

When the need for air became too great, Lily and James pulled apart, and stared at each other. James was completely shocked and Lily looked as if she wanted more.

"We shouldn't be doing this," James whispered into her ear, causing her to shiver. "You'll regret it in the morning."

"No I won't," Lily said so honestly that it was hard for James not to believe her.

Before James could respond, Lily pulled him closer, rapping her legs around his waist. She pressed her lips to his forcefully. Lily hadn't had a boyfriend in about two years, (because her Head duties and exams had kept her so busy), that she forgot what it felt like to feel the touch of someone against her; and she was definitely enjoying it. Lily let her tongue slip into James' mouth, enjoying the sensation that was spreading through her.

Just as James' hand began to slowly undo the top of Lily's bikini, Sirius yelled, "Yo! Jamesie! It's time to go inside"

James shot him a glare and sadly pulled away from Lily.

"Can't we stay out here a little longer?" Lily asked.

"No, we should probably get back inside. We have a long day planned for tomorrow," James answered, taking Lily's hand and leading her out of the pool.

When they reached the separate doors to their hotels, James gave Lily a small kiss on the lips and then they went into their rooms.

When Lily collapsed onto her bed, she immediately fell asleep, unaware that the next morning was going to be a very interesting one.
