Lily and James slept the whole night. Being the restless sleeper that she is, Lily turned her back towards James. James, being the cuddly person he is, grabbed on to Lily around the waste while they were sleeping. She, of course, didn't notice. And Sirius, jumping to conclusions, thought something went on between the sleeping James and Lily
"Good morning sleepy hea- WHOA! I never thought I would see this happen! I'll come back later!" Sirius woke both James and Lily up with his screaming and slamming of the door.
"What's his problem?" Lily said, not realizing that James was hugging her waist.
"I don't know." James started blushing once he realized the problem and he removed his hands at once.
"What time are your Mum and Dad coming, James?" Lily was in a hurry to be in a room by herself instead a bed with James. She immediately noticed his shirt on the ground and looked up at him. All of those years of Quidditch have paid off….WAIT what am I saying? She got out of the bed and looked out the window.
"I don't know. Soon I hope. It's nearly noon. Wow we slept late." James hopped out of the bed and put his glasses and shirt on to join Lily in looking out the window. "I think I see them now."
Lily and James walked out of the bedroom to find Sirius in the kitchen making breakfast for himself.
"You two have a wild night last night?" Sirius snickered.
"What are you talking about?" Lily said.
"I saw you in bed this morning. I about thought I was imagining things until I saw-" He was cut off.
"Sirius, nothing happened. You must have dreamt this or something," James interrupted him for a reason. Obviously Lily didn't feel his hands this morning.
"I don't know what's going on, but I know something is up. Sirius, may I use your lavatory?" Sirius nodded and Lily left the boys alone.
"So what went on last night?" Sirius waited until Lily was out of the room before asking.
"We didn't do anything. But she did kiss me on the cheek as a thank you." James smiled at the thought of it.
"Then why were your hands around her waist?"
"Sirius… you know that I'm a cuddly sleeper. Remember when we were little, I use to hug you in my sleep one time and you bit me? I guess I grabbed Lily and she didn't notice. That's why I cut you off before."
"Oh I understand now."
Just then, Lily walked in and there was a knock on the door. James' parents have arrived.
"Jamsie, we're here! Lily, its so nice to meet you. I'm James' mother if you haven't guessed already. Sirius, this is quite a lovely place you've got here." Mrs. Potter was as friendly as ever. To Lily, she seemed as though she was never tired.
"Ready to go son?" Mr. Potter said sternly. He saw an inappropriate magazine in a pile near them and wanted to get away from Sirius' apartment. Over the last couple of years, he seemed to act differently to Sirius even though the Potter's have known Sirius since he was just a toddler.
"Thank you Sirius for allowing us to stay in your apartment. See you soon mate," James was in a hurry to get home, too. He wanted Lily to unpack and rest. And he had a surprise up his sleeve.
They left Diagon Alley to the busy streets of London. Off to their right, Lily automatically recognized a magic car. To the muggle eye, it looked like a regular car, but to a magical eye you could see that it was indeed a magic car. Mr. Potter took Lily's things and put them in the trunk. James opened Lily's door, waited until she was seated and shut the door. Then went around to the passenger side and sat down next to her. He looked very nervous for some reason. Mr. Potter then went around and opened the door for Mrs. Potter and you can guess the rest.
Either the Potter men are raised to be gentlemen or they think that women are completely helpless. Mrs. Potter must have read Lily's mind because she turned around and said "The Potter men are such gentlemen" then winked at James. James immediately started to blush.
"I completely agree, Mrs. Potter. James has been very kind to me. And with all of the chivalry I have received, I feel like a queen," Lily said trying to make James feel better. It obviously did because he turned to the window and grinned, but you could see his reflection. Lily smiled, too.
"We all set to go?" Mr. Potter said.
"I believe that we are. Let's hit the road," Mrs. Potter said. The drove down a dark alley way, turned the car invisible, and flew to the Potter Manor. The whole time, James looked out the window and smiled. She said that I treated her like a queen. Maybe she has changed or I have changed. Or maybe she was being sarcastic. He looked over and saw her smiling. She wasn't sarcastic.
Then the car landed. Lily was in aw. Before her stood a very large estate. This is going to be one hell of a summer.
Well this is the last of my first couple of chapters. Once i get some feed back I will add a few more chapters I promise. Right now I am suffering from writers block. -Ink PS. if you haven't noticed already, within the chapters italized words are Lily's thoughts and bold words are James' thoughts. And dashed lines are just dividing up scenes in the chapters.
