A/N: Hey everyone. I know my chapters haven't been that great lately, and I have been taking ages to update, but I have just had all my mid years exams and my homework was piling up. Thankfully, now I am on holidays so I should be able to update a s a p. Ok now I want to thank these people…
Ginny-wannabe: I didn't mean to.
Gi-Xian: Of course you can have some chocolate.
x-rasenberrypluff-x: Thanks, your really sweet.
Three weeks had past since the day Lily woke up in hospital, she had since gotten up to scratch with her homework, fought with James six times and gone to bed late every night. Now she was sitting in the library doing her transfiguration homework. She yawned and saw that the library was almost empty.
She still had to study for her mid year exams, and do her potions essay. It was going to be a long night. Well at least she could sleep in tomorrow, as it was Saturday, all she would have to do was eat, sleep and do homework. Fun.
Lily decided to do the rest of her work tomorrow, now she just needed a good nights sleep. As she was walking, she wondered were she was going to go for the summer holidays. Her parents and sister were going to France and Lily didn't really want to go. Maybe she could go to Sarah's. Not likely, Sarah would probably be going to another country with her brother, Brendan, again. Maybe she could go to Aimee's. Not likely, she would probably be at Sirius's all holidays. Jocelyn and Ariane were at Hogwarts all holidays and Lily didn't want to stay here.
Oh no, Lily thought, don't even think about that option. She told herself. It will be hell if you go there. She shook her head and thought that she could figure it out in the morning.
She put her homework in her bag and made her way up to Gryffindor tower. On the way there she came across paw prints, they were leading down into the grounds. They looked like dog prints. Funny, she thought, I've never seen a dog on the grounds before. She made a decision to follow them. After all there was still a few hours till curfew.
The paw prints stopped at the edge of the grounds near the whomping willow, she didn't want to go there, but when she got closer she saw other prints as well. There were big prints, small prints, and a set of hooves. This was very peculiar, why would animals like this all be going to the same place.
I'll research it in the morning, she told herself, because I'll have more brain energy then.
But as she was walking to the castle she heard a loud howl. Next thing she new she had frozen with shock as a where wolf the size of a tree smashed out of the whomping willow. Then followed by it, were a stag and a dog. The most peculiar three animals to be seen together. But there was no time to think about that, the were wolf had seen her and, at a speed of about a hundred miles an hour. She had to run!
She ran as fast as she could but it was no use, the were wolf had seen it's target and had started for it. Like lightning she saw the stag freeze and meet her eyes. All of a sudden it had bolted after the were wolf and jumped on it's back. The wolf stumbled, something had disturbed its course of action, and they were going to pay. He turned on the stag and in a flash the stag turned towards the forest, as if it was leading the wolf away. Next, she felt a soft wetness on her leg and looked down to see the dog nudging her to move into the castle. But Lily couldn't what she had just seen had been incredible. Scary, but incredible. Why had the stag looked so worried about her? She had to find out, so, she followed the wolf and stag into the forest. Following the tracks, she came into a wide clearing and there she saw the stag and wolf fighting. Soon she heard the agonising sound of the wolf biting into the stags flesh, she had to look.
She looked into the clearing just as she saw the wolf exiting out the other end, probably to go find more prey.
She rushed over to where the stag lay and looked at the blood patch that had soaked through his beautiful white coat of fur. It looked at her with a sorrowful look, and the started changing form. Next thing she knew she was staring at a pale James Potter. She frowned. This wasn't right.
"James, I can't believe you are an anamagi. Your not registered or anything." She yelled, but then her look softened.
"I'm sorry. I…I…thank you." She said looking down at her knees.
"That's the second time you have saved my life in a month. Why?"
"I…I love you." He said in a strained voice. Inside, Lily was having a violent battle with herself, one part of her saying, go on kiss him. He saved your life, and you have feelings for him.
The other half of her was saying, slap the stupid dim wit. He doesn't deserve the touch of your lips; he would have done that for any one.
In the end there was only one thing to do. She lunged forward and locked him with a huge hug, then moving her head to lock lips with his. The kiss was passionate and she could feel the magic flowing through the both of them. His lips felt soft on hers and his hand resting softly on her back felt wonderful. Finally she pulled away and looked at him. Her lips felt swollen and then she saw that he was smiling. The smile was pained but it made her heart melt.
"We need to get you to the hospital wing." She said pulling his arm over her head. He nodded and she helped him get up. Together they walked to the hospital wing and Lily felt that, that was the beginning of a relationship…
