"Lily" Sirius said running towards me
"Yea" I said
"Have you seen James?" He asked.
"No" I lied. Why did I just lie? I thought
"Ok, cause we've looked everywhere" Sirius said
"Are you sure?" I asked knowing the answer
"Yea, I think" Sirius said
"I don't think you have," I said
"What are you talking about" he asked
"Where the last place you would look for James?" I asked
"The library!" Remus said
"Why? Is he there?" Sirius asked
"I don't know, but if I was hiding I'd go to the last place someone would look for me" I said
"Great idea Lils" Sirius said running past me. But why did I cover for James? I asked myself. Over and over again but I couldn't come up with an answer. I walked slowly up to the common room and sat on the couch. Surprisingly James popped up behind me
"Ahhh!" I screamed
"Shhh sorry Evans" he said
"What the, where the, how the hell did you get up here so fast" I asked
"Secret" he said
"I'm going to kill you," I said standing up
"Why?" he asked smiling
"First, everything about you is a secret. Second, you scared me half to death." I said
"Third?" he asked
"I don't have a third," I said
"How can you not have a third?" he asked
"I don't, James don't change the subject," I said
"What subject would that be? He asked
"I don't know." I said
"Well then it mustn't have been a very good subject," he said
"Potter! I'm going to kill you" he ran and I chased after him. We got all the way out onto the grounds when he finally stopped
"Evans calm down" He said putting his hands in the air signaling me to stop
"Fine" I said
"Really?" he said
"Well you run way to fast" I said trying to catch my breath. He laughed
"How did this start again?" he asked
"I don't know," I said
"So we ran all the way out here for something we can't remember" he said
"Pretty much" I said. I couldn't believe it; James and I were getting along
"James!" Sirius yelled running up to him
"What the hell is going on?" Sirius asked
"What do you mean?" James asked
"Why the hell was Lily chasing you?" he said glancing at me
"I don't exactly know" James said looking at me
"Well he scared me in the common room, then he started being sarcastic and stuff" I Said
"Lily? Do you know how stupid that sounds? When is James not sarcastic?" Sirius said
"Good point" I said
"Hello?" James said
"What?" both Sirius and I said.
"I'm only standing right here," James said
"Oh yea sorry about that" Sirius said
"But its true" Sirius said
"I can be Serious" James said
"No you cant, I'm Sirius" Sirius said
"Sirius, be serious" James said
"I am" Sirius said
"Whatever" I said walking away. Sirius grabbed my wrist and spun me around
"What is with that?" I asked
"With what" Sirius asked
"With grabbing my wrist to get my attention," I said
"Well you don't seem to listen otherwise" Sirius said
"Oh" I said
"So why'd you stop me?" I asked
"Um. I forget," he said
"Ok then I'll be going," I said, but he wouldn't let go of me
"Sirius?" I asked
"Yea?" he said
"You can let go of me," I said
"I know," he said
"So why aren't you?" I asked
"I don't know," he said
"Well if you two are going to stand around here all day I'll be going" James said leaving
"Ok. Come on Sirius, let go," I said
"Why should I?" he asked
"Because I'm your friend, and I have to go," I said
"You might be my friend but where do you have to go" he asked
"I don't know," I said
"Then your free to be with me" he said
"I guess but where?" I asked
"Right here" he said
"Doing what?" I asked.
"This" he said as He leaned in and kissed me
"Oh well I" I started but was cut off when he kissed me again. This time I kissed back, which was a mistake. I didn't want to date Sirius. He was there to be my friend and friend only. But he was such a great kisser.
"Sirius" I said quietly turning my head.
"Yes" he said softly
"I can't do this," I added looking back up into his icy blue eyes and I ran.
"Lily!" he called after me. But I didn't stop. I just wanted to get away. So I kept running. I could hear him running behind me. I knew he was faster that me. I knew he would catch up at any time, but I didn't care. I just kept running until I got in to the common room and ran up the girl's stairs. I locked myself in the girl's dorm
"Lily!" Sirius yelled from the foot of the stairs
Sirius' point of view
"Lily comes on. I'm sorry!" I yelled. But there was no response 'why was I so stupid!'
"What's going on Padfoot?" James asked walking down the stairs.
"I did a very stupid thing. Lily!" I said
"What did you do?" James asked
"I kissed her again. Lily come on!" I said
"And?" James asked
"And we started to make out. Lily!" I said
"And?" James asked
"And she ran" I said
"Oh" James said
"Lils! I'm sorry!" I yelled.
"She won't come out," James said
"Fine then I'll go up," I said. I got my broom, flew up to the door and landed. As I tossed my broom to the side I tried to open the door. It was locked.
Lily! Let me in!" I yelled
"NO" she yelled from the inside
"Fine! I'm coming in on the count of 3, 2, 1" I took out my wand and blew open the door
"Sirius!" Lily yelled
"What?" I said
"This is the girls dorm," she yelled
"So? I asked
"So I could've been changing," she said
"I don't care, I need to talk to you," I said
"I don't want to talk Sirius" Lily said trying to walk past me. I grabbed her waist.
"Sirius!" Lily yelled turning around
"Lily you are going to talk to me!" I said. She didn't answer
"Now, What's wrong?" I asked
"Nothing" she said
"Then what just happened?" I asked
"Look. Sirius you are my best friend. I want to keep it that way," Lily said.
"Why keep it that way when we can be more" I said looking into her eyes
"Because. What would happen if we did date? And then something happened, and we broke up. Would we still be friends? Probably not" she said. I thought about it for a moment
"But what is life with out risks" I pointed out
"I could never risk your friendship. I don't care if it could be better. I don't want to take the chance of it getting worse." Lily said I looked into her eyes and saw fear.
"Ok" I said softly, pulling her into a hug. I walked out of her room and into the common room. James was on the couch
"How'd it go?" he asked
"Peachie" I said
"Yea" I said
"Have you seen James?" He asked.
"No" I lied. Why did I just lie? I thought
"Ok, cause we've looked everywhere" Sirius said
"Are you sure?" I asked knowing the answer
"Yea, I think" Sirius said
"I don't think you have," I said
