A Tigerlily and a White Stag
"So, Lils, having fun?" James asked Lily as they walked into Hogsmeade.
"James, we just got here," Lily replied, laughing. "But yes, I am having much more fun on a date with you than I thought I would."
"I didn't mean that at all!" protested James. "Okay, so maybe I did," he admitted when Lily mock-glared at him. "So, where d'you want to go first?"
"The Three Broomsticks looks almost empty. Let's go in there."
They did, and almost immediately regretted it. Lily had been right; it was almost empty. However, the occupants were the problem. Or rather, one occupant was the problem.
"So, what are we going to do today, since Prongs ditched us?" Sirius asked Remus and Peter loudly. Remus winced visibly.
"Padfoot..." he muttered, "would you cut it out?" Sirius rolled his eyes, but stopped.
"Well well," said the barkeeper, Madame Rosmerta, looking up from where she was scrubbing the counter. "James and Lily? I've been wondering how long it would take you two. And yes, Professor, I know I owe you ten Galleons," she added, shaking the rag at someone sitting on the other side of the bar.
James and Lily looked. Professor Dumbledore looked back at them, his blue eyes twinkling with mischief. "Madame Rosmerta didn't think you two would be 'going out' before next year. I bet her ten Galleons you would."
James laughed. Lily blushed slightly. Madame Rosmerta set a Butterbeer in front of each of them.
"It's on the house today, kids. Have fun!"
