Authors Note: Sorry this is so short and apologise if you've got bored with it and think its been taken in the wrong direction but it gets all back to basics fairly quick after this and Graduation approaches…

James flicked through the large leather volumes and grinning at Lily he added 'and you always told me I couldn't read an intellectual book if it jumped up in front of me baring a naked woman on the front,'

'What is it?' Lily asked demandingly indicating to the book

'It's a book Lil'

'I know it's a book, James,' Lily said trying to keep the impatience in her voice to a bare minimum. 'What's it about?'

'Gryffindor,'

'Oh James,' Lily groaned 'if you've dragged me down here just to prattle on how you could be the heir of Gryffindor again I'll scream!'

'Not me Lil, I'm not the heir of Gryffindor,' and James spun the book round so it was facing Lily, Lily quickly scanned the pages before realising what she was reading.

'I'm not the heir Lily, you are,'

Lily looked down to the book and then back at James and she really did think this was some joke, the girl in the book had shiny auburn hair and at this point Lily started to twirl a strand of loose hair round her finger.

'Lily, it isn't a joke, I shouldn't have told you strictly speaking,' James said edgily 'but I felt I owe you an explanation to "clear the air" that is what you want isn't it?'

'To a certain extent but- James I'm going back to the castle,' with that Lily pushed her chair away from the table and walked quickly towards the exit.

'Lily, wait!' James called up the high street, by now Lily had convinced her that James was pulling her leg and making the whole thing up just so she would believe that lame excuse he used about sacred flames.

'I know you're lying James, why tell me all this stuff today? Huh? Just to satisfy Jackie and her little cronies or what? You enjoy seeing me embarrassed? Is that it?'  Lily said this all very hysterically and James was completely unaware of what he had done wrong, he had told her the utmost truth of what he knew about her and how he felt about her.

'No,' James replied quickly

'Then what?' Lily said flatly 'you just get off on watching me get hysterical is that it?'

'No,' James said in a disgusted tone pulling a face 'fuck no, Merlin Lily, you think- that's just not even on Sirius level,'

'Lily, I like you a lot and I've told you nothing but the truth all afternoon, what do you want me to do,' James said helplessly, Lily sighed and looking to the clouds then back to James she said.

'I know what I want but I don't know if I-' she paused biting her top lip

'If I no, I can't say it and won't because you'll just make fun of me,' she added huffily, her temper of hysteria now ebbing away

'I won't make fun of you,' James said earnestly

'I want to spend every. No it doesn't matter, I suppose I can believe you after all it's probably true,' Lily grumbled.

'I have a something for you back at the castle, c'mon,' James told her grinning and Lily looked at him strangely giving him a highly sceptical look.

'Wasn't much of a first date, was it?' Lily said laughing, her temper now ebbing away into thin air.

'No I guess it wasn't,' James said a little sadly 'I promise we'll go on a real date next time, and we won't just go to Hogsmeade. Half term is coming up, we could go to London,' they had stopped outside the common room with the fat lady staring at them curiously.

'I hope we have another date or at least another kiss soon,' Lily said boldly in a very un-Lily like way, James only hastily agreed and let himself feel the gentle velvetiness of Lilys lip gloss against his lips. The kiss deepened and Lily couldn't help but start to drape her arms around James' neck, after all in just a few hours she had gotten everything she wanted with the man of her dreams….
