On Saturday morning James got up early and took extra care to look nice, for when he took Lily on their date to Hogsmeade after breakfast.
When James got down to the Great Hall and sat down to eat, he was rudely interuppeted by his three best friends.
'Prongs!' they all said at once
'Yesh?' James said through a mouthful of food.
'So…are we going to do what we normally do on a Hogsmeade weekend?' Moony asked curiously.
'Sorry guys, but I am taking Lily out to Hogsmeade.'
'Lily? As in Lily Amelia Evans?' Sirius asked in disbelief
'That would be correct.' Said a voice from behind James.
The 4 boys looked up and when James saw lily he smiled and moved over so she could sit next to him.
'Lily, you look very nice today' James complimented
'Thanks James' she said as she blushed.

James finished his toast and got up from the table. He whispered something to Lily and she giggled. The both walked away from the table and out of the great hall side by side.

When Lily and James got to the entrance hall the stood in front of Filch who was checking off names of you had permission to go to Hogsmeade.
Filch looked at Lily and James and then looked down at a list of eligible Hogsmeade attendees. He ticked off their names and let them walk out of the entrance hall and out of the Hogwarts grounds.
'Lily…you know you really saved me back there when they were questioning me.' He blurted out suddenly
'It's ok James, it was no problem.' Lily told him.
They smiled at each other and headed out of the grounds onto a gravel path towards Hogsmeade.

Lily and James entered the village of Hogsmeade and decided to go look in shop windows and wander around the village for a while. Then James begged Lily and gave her puppy dog eyes, and she couldn't resist so she said yes. James yelled yes like a little kid who was getting a present.
They wandered around in the joke shop for about 15 minutes. After they left the shop they walked outside. When Lily stepped out of the store a blast of wind hit her and she shivered slightly.
'Are you ok Lily?' James asked
'Yeah, just a shiver.' She replied
As they continued walking James took off his cloak and put it on Lily.
'There you go.' James said as he put his cloak round her.
'Oh thanks James' she said greatfully.
'No problems Lily, I am not cold anyways.'
'Are you sure?'
James didn't say anything and just continued walking. They were about to go into the Three Broomsticks for a butterbeer but James stopped Lily.
'Lily, wait close your eyes!' James said happily
'What? Why James?' she asked curiously
'You'll see…I promise it's nothing bad, just give me your hands and close your eyes…don't open till I say to ok?'
'Oh alright!'
James took Lily's hands and guided her carefully.
James guided Lily to a little teashop called Madame Pudifoots. He opened the door and led Lily to a booth at the back of the shop.
After making sure Lily was set down comfortably in the booth, he sat on the other side, across from Lily. He told Lily to open her eyes. She did and gasped.
'James! How did you know where this place was?' she asked in disbelief.
'Oh you could say that I just knew where it was.' He said not giving too much away.
'I bet Alisha told you didn't she?'
'Nope!' James said cheekily
'Um…oh I give up…how did you know where this place was?'
'My dad told me this is where he took my mum on their first date.' He said and smiled.
Madame Pudifoot came up and asked if she could take their orders.
'May I please have a decaff coffee with milk?' Lily asked politely
'Of course dearie…and for you sir?'
'Can I have a blueberry muffin and a coffee?' James asked
'Yes…coming right up.' She said and turned around
'Thank you.' They both said, together.
¤.¸¸.·´¨»«´¨·. ¸¸.¤
After Madame Pudifoot brought their food over she put the bill down. James grabbed the bill and paid her 3 galleons.
When James looked back around he saw that there were pieces of his muffin missing…he looked at Lily and stuck his tongue out at her.
'Hey! That was my muffin!' He mockingly yelled
'I know…I was hungry!' Lily told him cheekily
Just as James went to take a bite of his muffin, Lily grabbed a bit and shoved it in his mouth.
James coughed and spluttered and Lily laughed.
After they finished their food and coffee's they got up and decided to head back to the castle so they could catch up on their homework before classes tomorrow.
¤.¸¸.·´¨»«´¨·. ¸¸.¤
As they walked back along the gravel path towards Hogwarts, when Lily nervously slid her hand into James'. James looked over at Lily and smiled. They continued walking back up to the castle.
When they got into the castle they walked up to the common room and then they parted ways. James back up to the boy's dorm and Lily to the girls.
