Wow Wow Wow, I haven't updated in SO long. SORRY! School's started again (why?) and basketball has consumed most of my other free time. I will try as hard as possible to hurry with the next chapter. This chapter might be a little weird and short but I needed a carry over chapter to the next one. So enjoy the chapter:

Chapter 11 – Took Long Enough

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Lily's POV)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

Where's James? God, when we're not going out he's always there when we are he's not.

"Lily?" James said, "Hello?"

Finally

"Oh hi," I replied and kissed him on the cheek,

"How are you?"

"Great," he said.

"So are you ready?" I asked as we reached the Great Hall.

"Ready as I'll ever be," he replied and we walked into the hall hand in hand.

Most of the room went silent as we walked to the Gryffindor table.

Its not that big of a deal, just because we've been fighting for the past 6 years…ok so maybe it is kind of a big deal….

"NO WAY!" Bridget shouted as I sat down across from James.

"Took long enough," Sarah said.

Well that's nice of her……..but it did take a while…..

I blushed and reached for a piece of toast.

"So?" Paige asked.

"Yeah when did it happen mate?" Sirius questioned.

"Yesterday night," James said.

"Why didn't you tell me then?" Sirius shouted.

"Well you were snoring and seemed so peaceful…"

"Hey!" Sirius shouted over our laughter.

Well that's James……..

"Mr. Potter and Ms. Evans would you please PAY ATTENTION." Professor Gable yelled.

Damn it.

I turned forwards and replied, "Sorry Professor won't happen again."

"Yes, yes ok now where was I……" he said and turned towards the board.

He looks so cute….

"Lily, Lily," James whispered.

"Shh," I said back and pretended to be writing notes.

"Lily……" he said again.

"James…." I replied.

Why are we doing this?...We'll just get in more trouble……and….

"Lily…you're beautiful," he said causing me to turn around.

"Really?"

He's so sweet.

"Yeah," he said getting closer to me.

"James…." I sighed our heads now an inch apart.

"MR. POTTER AND MS. EVANS I CANNOT HAVE THIS IN MY CLASSROOM!" Professor Gable shouted, "Mr. Potter next to Ms. Smith and Ms. Evans next to Mr. Pettigrew."

Damn. I thought and sat down.

But at least I can see James…….he's so cute and sweet and smart…and…...just so James.

(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((James' POV))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

"Will you guys stop doing that?" Sirius questioned as he stirred his food, "Your making me lose my appetite."

Why? What are we doing?

"What are we doing?" I asked and looked at Lily.

"That!" he exclaimed.

"Looking at each other?"

"YES!" he, Sara, Bridget, Paige, and Remus said.

Well it's not our problem we want to look at each other its not like we're snogging or anything.

"I don't get how we are," Lily said and took a bite of her bread.

"Well, it wasn't they you just kept looking at each other, if I look at James he's looking at you and if I try to talk to him, he ignores me because he's looking at you!" Sirius exclaimed.

Well he could just try harder to get my attention….

"Just talk louder," I said and continued to look at Lily.

"Forget it," he said.

"Now don't forget there will be a Hogsmeade trip this weekend. Please meet me at the front gates if you wish to go," Professor Gable said, "Class dismissed."

Yes, now Lily and I can go on our official first date.

"Lily!" I called

"Yes James?"

"Would you like to go to Hogsmeade with me?"

"I love to!" she replied happily and kissed me on the cheek.

"Great"

YES!

"Nice," Sirius said as Lily walked away.

"I know, never thought this day would come," Remus said.

"I'm so proud!" Sirius exclaimed.

"We always knew you could do it!" Remus shouted.

What are they gonna do next spell out my name?

"Give me a J!" Sirius called.

"J!" everyone in the corridor yelled.

Why did I even doubt them?

"Give me an E!" Sirius shouted.

"E!"

"Give me an S!" Remus called.

"S!"

They really must be enjoying this I must remember to ask Lily out in private.

"Put it all together and what does that spell?" Sirius asked.

"JAMES! JAMES!" everyone shouted.

"Thanks guys I feel loved,"

"Hey, that's why were here," Sirius said.
