Chapter 7 – James' Offer

A/N: Thanks for all of the reviews everyone, many of you thought that an apology of some sort and you were very close, there is an apology, but that's not what's waiting for Lily…


While Lily and her friends were busy playing quidditch outside, James and his friends were inside, even though it was a beautiful day outside.


"Guys, I need your help!" screamed James for the third time. "I need to know how to apologize to Lily!"

Remus sighed for third time. "I already told you Prongs, you need to figure something out yourself."

BANG! Remus, Peter, and James jumped.

"Sirius!" James exclaimed, "What happened to your date with Angel?"

"Oh, I broke up with her."

"What! She's was really nice you know…"

"Hey, I have my sights set on another girl."

"Really, who, her twin?" sniggered James, not knowing how right he was.

"Err… What if I told you you were right?"

James burst out laughing. "Good one Sirius!"

"Hey, I'm not joking."

Instant silence followed this statement.

"Err, Sirius? Did you know that Krystal knows martial arts? I recommend you don't break up with her."

"Oh yeah, Sirius, how do you know she'll go out with you in the first place?"

"The fact that no girl can resist me."

"Well," Remus started, "whatever your decision, we'll support it."

"Thanks guys."

"Now, back to the topic guys, how do I apologize to Lily?"

Remus groaned.


"Wow, guys, this is actually fun!" Lily yelled to her friends. She was flying on a broomstick high in the air, clutching onto a quaffle.

"We told you!" Angel and Krystal yelled back, Angel holding a beater's bat and Krystal soaring around the goal posts.

"I need to join the team! I'm pretty good as a chaser!" she yelled as she soared to the goal posts and threw a ball in a goal.

"Lily, did you know James is a chaser?" Krystal yelled, "If you want to be a chaser, you have to work with him!"

"Hey, Krystal, Angel, could we land?"

"Sure!"

And down they went, diving several feet and then pulling out, landing gracefully on the grass below.

"Nice job ladies!"

The girls turned around. James was standing there, clapping his hands.

"What do you want Potter?"

James' heart sank when he heard Lily call him Potter again.

"Well, Lily, I want to see if you would like to join the quidditch team this year. Of course, I would offer all of you a position, but you two are already on the team," he said, gesturing to Angel and Krystal. "So Lily, what do you say?"

"I'll think about it. Now, goodbye Potter." She turned around and left, with her friends following her.


James watched them go in silence. Why did I have to play those pranks on her? Oh right, I thought it would be a humorous start to our date. It's just a pity that I didn't listen to Remus.

He sighed. Time to plan an apology.
