Chapter 2- Nice enough day
Lily and Sirius snuck quietly through the trapdoor that lead to Honeydukes. Lily giggled as they mingled with the crowd in the shop and then walked out of the shop.
Sirius turned to Lily. "You really should learn to control your giggling, what if you get caught in one of our secret missions. I think I need to get a new side kick, you're just not meeting my standards."
Lily couldn't hold it in any longer, she burst out laughing and Sirius joined her. Lily walked a few steps to the side of the path and sat down on the log, all the while laughing hysterically, when she calmed down enough she asked "Side kick for what, I never knew I was your side kick."
"Well you know you are now." Sirius said smiling at her. He took a strand of her soft, crimson hair and tucked it gently behind her ear. "There, can you see better now?"
Lily made a face at him. "I never said I couldn't see."
Sirius shrugged and stood up, "Where do you want to go first?" He put his hand down for Lily; she took it and pulled herself up.
"How about The Three Broomsticks?" Lily said, smiling, and then without waiting for an answer she started to pull Sirius along behind her in the direction of the Three Broomsticks. Sirius let himself get pulled along but slipped his hand out of hers as they reached the Thee Broomsticks. "You go and find a seat, I'll get two butter beers, ok?" Lily nodded and started to walk to the corner of the shop. It wasn't long until both were sitting opposite each other and sipping the butter beers gratefully.
"So..." Sirius started, trying to strike up conversation, "Have you finished your Potions essay?"
Lily nodded, "Yeah, you?"
Sirius shrugged, "I started it."
"How much did you get done?"
"Um... about 2 sentences."
Lily sighed, "Good work Sirius, you know it is due on Monday?"
"Yeah, I know that, that's why I have the whole of tomorrow to do it." Sirius smiled at her, "You finished?" Lily nodded and got up, Sirius took the two mugs back to the counter and then joined Lily at the door, the stepped outside, "What next?"
Lily shrugged and began to walk away from the door so they weren't blocking it. "I chose the Three Broomsticks, so it's your turn."
"Ok..." Sirius said, looking around for something to do, his eyes settled on the joke shop, he smiled, "Looks like we're on our way to Zonkos, I need to stock up." Lily nodded and Sirius began to lead the way to the shop on the other side of the path. He opened the door and stepped inside as though he owned the shop. There wasn't as big of a crowd in Zonkos, as this wasn't an official Hogsmeade trip. Lily just stood near the door as Sirius darted around and grabbed different things off the shelves, he paid for then and then joined Lily at the door with a bulging bag of tricks and jokes, they were out of Zonkos, within 5 minutes. "Ok, I'm done, your turn." Sirius said.
Lily looked around before looking down at her watch to check the time. She sighed, "Sirius, I have to meet James in about half an hour so I think we should go back, because the tunnel is pretty long."
Sirius looked surprised, "Really is it that late?" He checked the time, "Oh well, yeah, I guess we should go back, you're going to have to tell James today though."
"I will." Lily sighed and started to walk towards Honeydukes, they had no trouble slipping through back through the trap door and into the tunnel. They walked in silence and were back at Hogwarts in about 20 minutes. They walked back to the Gryffindor tower and said goodbye to each other in the common room. Sirius walked up the stairs to the boy's dormitories and Lily sat on an armchair to wait for James.
Five minutes later Lily saw the messy black hair and smiling face, standing in front of her. She got up and smiled at him. James gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before smiling, "To the room of requirement then... Lily, are you ok?"
Lily shrugged and quickly put on a fake smile, "I'm fine really."
James frowned, "You look nervous."
"It's just all the homework and our exams are really close, that's all really." Lily said reassuringly.
James smiled, "Ok, then." He took her arm and they started to walk to the portrait hole. Lily knew that telling him wouldn't just be hard, it would be almost impossible...
--------------- dum de dum, Sorry about the short chapter, but it seemed a good enough place to leave it. The end of the chapter is a little, not very good, anyway...If you have any queries, or you liked at the chapter, or you hated chapter, please review to let me know.
