PLOT:  Lily, the smart one who would never fall for someone like James Potter. But what happens when they spend a summer together does it lead to paradise or does it lead to complete and utter chaos.

In One Moment

Chapter Eighteen: Planning the First Date

In One Moment how everything can change.

One Moment!  How Fate can rearrange

Your life.

Nothing ever stays the same, it seems.

One moment, and that's the end of all your dreams.

One moment, and what was love can turn to hate!

One Moment, and suddenly its to late

And you find your hopes have turned to dust.

In one moment reality can crack.

 "So this date…" he murmured while leaning back against her legs

"What about it?" she asked

"Well how about tomorrow night?"

"When?"

"Eight o'clock tomorrow?"

"Okay…No funny business though."

"Deal."

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

"Sirius, what am I going to do?"

"What do ya mean mate?"

"I mean, its our first date tomorrow and I have no idea what to do."

"Um…go out?"

"Not helping."

"Well how should I know, I mean I always have my dates friends plan them. At least they know what the girl likes."

"Brilliant!"

"I know, aren't i?"

"No you, ya twit…your idea, I'll ask Aoife for my help!"

"Okay you have gone bonkers; asking Lily's friends for help with your date I mean what fool would do that?"

"You…Never mind, I'll be around if you need me." With that said James bounded out of the room like an excited puppy trying to find Aoife.

"He is hopeless." muttered Sirius as he pulled out his Qudditch magazines and flipped through them.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Oi, Aoife, hold on a second!" shouted James as he saw her crossing his front yard.

"James?" she asked puzzled

"Don't look so happy to see me."

"Sorry its just, we never, and I emphasize on the never talk."

"Well times are changing."

"You mean you want to get into my best friends pants. In order to do so you think it would be nice to become friends with her friends. How sweet. Not."

"Come on I am not like that."

"Really?"

"Well, I was but things have changed."

"You mean that Lily is starting to like you back so all you want is a quick fuck."

"No…Aoife come on."

"I fell for this trick once, when you dated Emily, god rest her soul and I swore never again."

"Look I have changed."

"I'll believe it when I see it…in about six month's time, if you too are still together."

"Please help me."

"why…last time I helped you it ended up hurting Emily, I won't do it again."

"Stop being such a bitch and help me."

"I have every right to be a bitch…I lost Emily because of you." she screamed

"Look, I'm sorry for what I did to Emily…What you lost her because of me?" he asked puzzled

"That's right…Everyone says she was attacked and rightly so she was…I was there…but we wouldn't have been in that predicament if you hadn't dumped her!"

"Don't blame it on me…I had nothing to do with it, I dumped her two months before that."

"I'm…sorry I didn't mean to its just… I mean it wasn't your fault really…I just miss her so much." she sobbed

"Hey its okay, I know, I know…come on now everything will be alright." he whispered while rubbing her back.

"I owe you an apology…"

"None needed…If you help me with the date tonight."

"Why not."

"Okay I need to know what she likes."

"She is your girlfriend you should know what she likes."

"Well I know she likes school, reading, hanging out with her friends, writing… but I need to know more, that isn't going to help me on the date."

"Well she likes animals."

"Obviously, she can talk to them genius."

"Well if you don't want my help James…"

"okay I'm sorry."

"Do something romantic, and surprise her with something…something that will make her feel better about everything that has happened over the summer."

"Okay, like…"

"You'll think of it. Toodles."

"Boy that girl is strange." he muttered as he watched her walk away. Now time to prepare for his date.
