Hey, sorry it took me so long to update! I've been busy. Anyway I've just got a couple of things to say:

1. I've given up on writing longer chapters. But they will be longer than this! This is so short because I felt that I needed to post something or I never would!

2. I was looking at chapter two I think it was and I realised I forgot to put in Hagrid's talking, or way of talking. I don't really know how he talks, like how to write it so I'm just going to leave it.

3. I also just wanted to say thank you to lilmimistar for reviewing and of course to Lily and JamesLove 4 ever. I smiled when I read them : )!

Lily sat on her looking out the window. It had been two days since school had started and Lily could already tell it was going to be a long year. The work was much harder and even Lily was starting to struggle. Mind you the teachers had given plenty of warning, every lesson they got the same lecture Professor Slughorn had given them before giving them homework that could last them two weeks but was of course due in 2 days.

Lily looked at her clock. She slowly stood up dreading the day ahead of her. She looked around at the 2 empty beds which were usually occupied by Jackie and Emma and figured they'd just be down in the Great Hall having some breakfast. So she quickly got changed and made her way down to the Great Hall.

"Morning" Emma said behind the Daily Prophet as Lily sat down next to her.

"Hey, you guys sleep well?" Lily asked Emma still half asleep.

"No, not really" Emma replied miserably

"Like a log." Jackie said much more brightly.

" Lily, don't look now but Steve is staring at you again." Emma said

"How many times do I have to tell you we're just friends" Lily sighed

"Really? Well then why is he coming over here. See you. Jackie, want to come?" Emma said as she stood up.

"I just got here. Why would I want to go I just got OUCH! Coming" Jackie said as she rushed away after Emma. Honestly, thought Lily, he's probably just going somewhere outside. The Gryffindor table is actually next to the door to go outside! But even if hedoes come over here, it's not like it matters. Friends can talk to eachother if they want! I mean- Lily's thoughts were cut off.

"Hey um, Lily" Steve said in a very nervous voice

"Oh, hi Steve, how are you?"

"I'm um ok. Listen I was wondering you know how this weekend's a Hogsmeade weekend, well I was wondering if maybe you wanted to like, well, meet up or something?" Steve mumbled looking at his feet. "I mean I can understand if you know you don't want to. In fact, I expect you'll probably say no I just –"

"I would love to" Lily said smiling.

"Really?" Steve asked and Lily nodded. "Ok, so how about if we meet at the Three Broomsticks at like 12pm?" Lily smiled and nodded again.

Lily walked into the Gryffindor common room with a spring in her step. She couldn't help, she didn't actually really like Steve, well she didn't really know him all that well but she couldn't help but get excited.

"Just friends, eh?" Emma said from behind her as she entered the dorm

"Oh Emma, you scared me!"

"You're ignoring my question. What happened?" Emma asked in an eager voice.

"I have a date this Saturday!" Lily said and the two started jumping up and down screaming with happiness. Jaz walked into the girl's dorm.

"What are you guys screaming about?" she asked yawning

"Lily has a date!" Emma said with a devilish grin on her face

"You finally said yes to James?" she asked

"No! I hate James! I've got a date with Steven Stolburg" Lily giggled when she said his name.

"CRAP! James! He is going to kill Steven!" Emma said worriedly. The 3 girls exchanged nervous looks.

"He doesn't have to know" said Jackie appearing at the doorway, who had been listening to the whole conversation. She now had a wicked grin on her face.

The week of school seemed as though it had ended before it even begun. Lily and Jaz had once again taken place at the top of every class. James still hadn't found out about Lily's date and for Steve's sake she hoped it stayed that way. On Friday night, the night before her big date Lily suddenly panicked.

"WHAT AM I GOING TO WEAR?" she screamed at the top of her voice causing the whole common room to stare at her. Emma, Jackie and Jaz who'd all been sitting next to her pulled her off her feet and together they all ran up to the dorm to help Lily on her voyage of the perfect outfit.

After tears, tantrums and scattering clothes all over the dorms Lily was wearing the perfect outfit! Jackie put her hand on her heart and begun to make crying noise.

"Beautiful, it's just beautiful" she said in a mocking voice.

"You look amazing!" Jaz said like she was in a trance and Emma just smiled.


Meanwhile James had started to become suspicious.

"What do you think Evans is so worried about looking good for?" James asked his friends, deep in thought. They were sitting on their beds in their dorm. Remus, as usual, was reading a book; Peter, once again, staring at all three boys in amazement; and Sirius was lying down flicking through the pages of his magazine not really paying much attention to what he was doing.

"Uhhh" Sirius mumbled. James looked around at all of his friends.

"Hello? I have a seriously problem here!" James yelled angrily

"Well…um…" Peter said in a very squeaky, timid voice "Maybe, she has a date" he finished. The three boys looked up at started to laugh. Sirius began rolling around his bed in a fit of laughter. Peter, feeling very unsure, began to try to laugh very quietly but it ended up sounding like he was saying "hahaha" very fast.

"Yeah, because what are the chances of Lily getting a date?" Sirius snorted

"I mean it's not like she's smart, pretty, popular, a Prefect…." Remus said but as he said every word the laughter began to stop until all you could hear was "hahahaha" being said very fast, very quietly from Peter's mouth. James sighed very loudly.

"She's gotta date, hasn't she" he said depressed, angry and annoyed.

"Bad luck, Prongs. But a hint, unless you never want her to talk to you again I'd just like lay off." Remus said in a very professional voice.

"That's one way you could do it. Or you could follow Lily on Saturday and totally gate crash their date!" Sirius said sarcastically, but just as he said it a huge evil grin spread across James' face.

"But I wouldn't do that" he said mysteriously.

"Oh no, because I mean its Lily's life…" Sirius began with a really serious look on his face (hahaha, Sirius is being serious, I am such a comedian, NOT)

"And, I mean, she deserves to do what she want" James said in an equally serious voice. "But most importantly, it would be wrong." Sirius said mockingly.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohh what;s James going to do? oooooooooooooooooooooooooooohh

Anyway. Thanks for reading, now kindly review LOL
