Cheers To Good Friends
James' POV
Well that was weird, James thought. I probably should have offered to take her to the Hospital Wing since it will be my fault if the Head Girl suddenly starts acting mentally retarded. I'm sure she's fine. I mean I didn't hit her that hard.
'Is that what you're going to tell Dumbledore when he has to explain to Lily's parents why she was taken away to St. Mungos?' a voice in his head asked.
Maybe I should go check on her.
'Good thinking.'
Great.....now I'm talking to myself. Maybe I need to take a visit to St. Mungos.
Lily's POV
Lily was currently walking to her dormitory. She was walking pretty slowly, not in any particular hurry to unpack. Lily was about half way to her destination when she noticed someone walking towards her. Amos Diggory.
Oh. My. God. What do I do?! Lily thought frantically. He won't try anything, I mean, only a retard would try anything in broad daylight in the middle of a hallway. Right? Just stay calm....
Lily just continued walking, acting as if she didn't notice him but sadly for Lily, Amos saw her.
"Hey babe," Amos said now walking with her. "Wanna hook up later?"
"Never," Lily replied through clenched teeth, trying to resist the urge to slap him.
"Well, if you change your mind, you know where to find me," Amos said, winking at her and licking his lip seductively.
After saying only that much, Amos left her. Lily quickened her pace, until she reached the portrait of the Fat Lady.
"Password?"
"Ginger snaps," Lily answered.
The Fat Lady didn't budge.
"Umm....why aren't you letting me through?" Lily asked.
"I'm sorry dear but unless you know the correct password I cant let you in," the Fat Lady answered.
They must have changed it while I was gone, Lily thought to herself. Letting out a big sigh, Lily took a seat on the floor next to the entrance of the common room, hoping that a Gryffindor would walk by soon.
After five minutes of waiting Lily was greeted by Katie and Emma.
"Thank goodness you guys are here!" Lily exclaimed, standing up.
"We love you too Lily," Emma said.
"After I left the Great Hall I saw James, who by the way ran into me, causing me to black out and have freaky realistic dreams, so I then decided maybe I just need to lie down for a while; then, on my way here, Amos came up to me and started hitting on me, God that guy is so creepy! And to top it all off I can't even get into the common room because apparently Dumbledore changed the password while I was gone and all I just wanted was to unpack, but that's kinda hard to do when you can't even get into your own freakin common room!" Lily screamed, now looking rather flustered.
"Lily?" Katie asked.
"What?!"
"Breathe."
After calming Lily down a bit, Katie gave the Fat Lady the correct password (fairy poo), and the three girls went to their dormitory. Once there, Lily went straight to her four poster. Katie and Emma exchanged glances before taking a seat on Lily's bed.
"What was that all about?" Emma asked, giving Lily a worried look.
"Nothing. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to blow up at you guys like that," Lily answered.
"No one blows up over nothing," Katie said. "What's really bothering you?"
Lily let out a big sigh and began spilling her heart out to her friends. She started off by telling them about her encounter with Amos. "He started hitting on me and....gosh he's so gross!" Lily exclaimed, covering her eyes as if he were standing right there.
"Don't let him get to you," Emma said. "That's just exactly what he's trying to do."
"Yeah," Katie agreed. "But if he continues to bother you, I'd talk to Dumbledore."
With that problem pretty much solved, Lily continued on. Her next topic was Dylan. Lily told them everything from his reckless driving from his good looks to even their kiss.
"Well what's the problem?" Katie asked. "He seems really great."
"That's the problem!" Lily exclaimed. "I really like him but...."
"But what?" Emma asked.
"Never mind," Lily said.
"Is that all you were upset about?" Katie asked.
"Oh, there's more," Lily answered.
So Lily continued on with her story.... "After I left the Great Hall, I headed to our dormitory so I could begin unpacking. James ran into me, causing me to black out for a little bit. The thing is, I had this really weird dream. It seemed so real. But when I woke up, James just looked at me strangely when I asked if it had happened."
"What happened in your dream?" Emma asked.
"Well, umm....uhh....I rather not say," Lily said.
"Oh come on Lily!" Katie said. "It cant be that bad."
"Well, uhh, meandJameskindahadsex," Lily replied, now blushing.
"Woo," Katie said.
"Well?!" Emma asked excitedly.
"Well what?" Lily asked confused.
"How was it?!"
"Oh gracious Emma!" Lily exclaimed, throwing a pillow at her.
"Does this mean you still have feelings for James?" Katie asked grinning.
"Uhh...I don't think so. I mean, not that I know of. Why do I get asked all the hard questions?!"
"That wasn't a hard question," Emma said. "You should know how you feel."
After a long, silent, pause Lily said, "Thanks."
"For what?" Katie and Emma asked.
"For listening to me while I ramble on about my pathetic life."
"Anytime," Katie said smiling.
"Yeah, that's what friends are for," Emma added.
James' POV
James was currently sitting on the couch in the common room. He had been there for little over an hour. What could she possibly be doing up there? James asked himself. Suddenly, as if on que, Lily came down from her dormitory, looking quite happy.
"Hey Lily!" James yelled.
Lily looked over to see who had called her name; James.
Oh great, she thought.
"Hey James," Lily replied, taking a seat next to him.
"How are you?" James asked.
"I'm good," Lily answered. "James, what are you doing?"
James was currently poking her, as if checking to see if she was broken. James looked up and smiled sheepishly.
"I was just uhh checking you."
"For what?" Lily asked.
"For signs of aging," James answered lamely. "You seem to be aging gracefully so my work here is done."
"You're so lame," Lily said laughing.
"Thank you, thank you," James replied.
