XOX

She had no idea why she had slapped James but the one thing she did know was that she enjoyed that kiss more than anything. She tried to forget the feeling of what his lips felt like against hers but it was no hope, she felt like kicking herself for slapping James he had been so kind to her, he was trying to make amends for the last five years. But then again why had it come on so quickly, how did he know what to do and when? All these unanswered questions were giving Lily a headache. She walked downstairs to the common room, to find Darren sitting on the sofa reading, which was an unusual thing to be seen.

"Quick someone get me a chair, Darren is read?" Lily said jokily.

Darren looked up to see who was talking when he saw it was Lily he smiled and replied back "I was waiting for you actually".

"Oh and why is that?" Lily dropped herself next to Darren.

"I wanted to ask you…if…. you wanted to…. go" Darren said to say, Lily was thinking the worse that he was going to ask her out, "to the kitchens I missed dinner".

"Love to" Lily sighed in happiness that he didn't ask her the question she dreaded to hear.

Darren's plan was going just as he wanted it, and James "Idiot" Potter was nowhere to be seen. Lily and Darren made their way to the kitchen, with Lily unaware she was heading into Darren's trap.

James Potter run into the common room and looked around to find only some 1st years studying, he rushed up to the boy's dorm, Darren wasn't there. He ran back into the common room, and went over to the 1st and asked "Have any of you seen a girl about this tall- he held his hand to about his nose- with red hair?"

"Yeah she just went outside with some guy, they mentioned going to the kitchens," a young boy said without looking up at James.

"Ok thanks!" James shouted as he ran out of the common room, towards the kitchen, completely forgetting that he had an invisibility cloak and a map telling him where everyone was.

When Lily and Darren arrived in the kitchen, they were greeted by serval Houseelfs more than happy to help them, Lily being a frequent visitor to the kitchen asked the only elf that she knew personal, Jenny.

"Can we please have some sandwiches?" Lily asked politely.

"And some tea" Darren asked.

As the elf's went off and got what Lily and Darren asked for, they both sitted themselves down on a little table and waited for the food. Lily could tell something was bothering Darren. But she was going to pursed what it was she knew how bad his temper could be.

As the tea arrived, Darren said to Lily "Can you ask one of them to get some sugar, I don't get on with houseelfs for some reason?"

When Lily turned around to ask, Darren pulled a vile out of his pocket and poured it into Lily's cup, as she turned around again this time with the sugar, Darren started a conversation

"So Lily, anything been happening with Potter?" Darren asked with fake interest.

"No, why do you ask?" Lily asked scared that he had seen them kissing.

"No reason just making sure than he takes care off you, you should drink your tea Lily or else it will get cold." Darren said with a warm smile.

Lily drank some of the tea as she did, Darren was getting ready to do what he wanted to do in a long while, after all she had just drank memory potion.

Lily looked back at Darren with a confused look on her face, Darren did what he had planned he took Lily into his arms and kissed her.

Lily didn't know what was going on, she couldn't even remember where she was and who with all she remembered was kissing someone before, she though that she and Darren had been kissing before, so she decided to kiss him back and see if it had the same feeling that it had before.

Darren was having the time of his life, he was kissing the girl he had fancied for the last year and a half, and she was kissing him back. He had her now he had Lily Evans!

James made his way to the kitchen, as he tickled the pear (a.n- is that right?) in the painting, he was hoping it wasn't too late to stop Darren from slipping that potion into Lily's drink. When he walked in he saw, Darren with his arms around Lily! James did the only thing that he could think to do, he took hold of Darren pulled him back and punched him straight in the nose.

Lily was confused this kiss wasn't the same as before, it was worse it felt like kissing a brother. She wanted to stop it, but he kept her body there.

Darren could feel Lily trying to pull away; there was no way he was going to let her go now. But all of a sudden he was being pulled back; all he saw was a fist connect to his face. And then he felt pain, and could taste blood.

James was fuming, at Darren and even Lily a little bit. He hated Darren for even trying to get Lily and he was mad a Lily for carrying on with the kiss.

Lily saw James and everything came back to her, it was James she was kissing earlier, not Darren her best mate. She saw that James was going after Darren again; she pulled James back and shouted

"That's enough! Stop James what is your problem!" Lily looked James straight into his eyes.

"My problem is that this thing –he pointed at Darren who was leaning against the table- planned all of this to get you to kiss him!" James shouted at Lily.

"Don't shout at me! And Darren has been my best friend since 1st year; he has never teased me about anything unlike you! So don't you dare accuse him of anything!" Lily shouted back at James.

James looked at Lily and said quietly "Fine don't believe me, but explain to me why were you kissing him?" James asked, he was so sure of himself that he though she would say nothing instead to his great horror Lily replied "Maybe I wanted to?"

James looked at Lily and laughed and said "Whatever Lily, when that potion has worn off then talk to me, oh and if you don't believe me check your cup" James walked out of the room and gave Darren a cold stare.

Lily stood in the middle of the room, because she wanted to prove to James that he had it all wrong about Darren, she picked up her cup and smelt it, to find that it smelled just like the memory potion that, they had learned to make in potion just two weeks ago Lily looked at Darren, then to the door. She walked out ignoring Darren's cries for her to come back.
