James had nothing to do so he decided to leave the commonroom, just when Lily was entering.
"Hello, I was just looking for you!" she said cheerfully.
"Really?"
"Yeah, I just realized that we haven't set a date for the date! So, um, how about Saturday?"
Damn, why hadn't she turned him down like all other times? James couldn't make it this weekend because he had detention with Professor Slughorn, for the first time without deserving it. But Lily would never believe that.
"I'm really sorry, I can't go on a date on any of weekend for a month"
"Why?" Lily asked suspiciously.
"Because…um…"
"You have detention, don't you?"
"Listen-"
"Fine by me, it's not like I really wanted too. I just feel bad for you, for spoiling your only chance when you finally got it"
Lily went to her dorm, once again leaving James feeling worseless and miserable as music begins.
(Tune: Sandy) (A/U: I know that Lily should sing here 'cause James got 'Hopelessly Devoted To You' but the cheesy lovesongs fit James better.)
Stranded in detention, branded a fool
What will she say
Monday at school?
Lily can't you see, I have been mischief free
Just hear my song, I've done no wrong
I've not touched Snivelly
I know he claims I am to blame
So this weekend will I-I-I oh I chops some flees, oh Lily
Oh Lily maybe someday when Hogwarts school is done
Somehow some way I'll make you think I'm fun
Confinement assignments will be no more for me
I'll ask then again oh Lily
Spoken
Lily my darling you hurt me real bad
If you only knew
But Evans if you only believed it 'cause
Now I feel really blue
Singing
I know he claims I am to blame
So this weekend will I-I-I oh I chops some flees, oh Lily
Oh Lily
Lily Lily
Why-y-y-y oh Lily
Sirius hit James in the head with a frying pan.
"Ow!"
"What are you whining about?" Sirius asked.
"Thanks to you, my dear friend, I will miss the date! My one and only chance with Lily I'll ever have! Because I have detention and she found out about it! I am so mad at you, you're lucky I even speak to you!"
"Don't blame me, blame Dumbledore! I haven't told anyone that you have done anything wrong!"
"I'm going for a walk" said James and left the commonroom. Great, now both he and Remus were mad at him. And he didn't know where Peter was.
(A/N: K, so I changed the lyrics a bit to the hopelessly devoted filk and this one, 'cause I wanted them to fit the story better even if they still suck a- hole. But nevertheless, I like this fic. I hope you do too. Please r&r! Pretty please!)
