The Game of Seduction; Chapter two- A Little Get Together?
One Year Later.
Finally, Lily thought, yawning, seventh year!
The red head was being lulled by the Headmaster's deep, soothing voice. She must have fallen asleep at some point during his speech because, suddenly, her friend, Ella, was elbowing her in the side.
"Lily! Lily, come on, wake up, now!"
"Yeah, Lily, you have to give your speech!"
Lily's head snapped up. "What? What speech?" Suddenly Lily noticed that the entire student population was staring at her.
"Lily Evans", Professor Dumbledore called, "Your Head Girl speech?"
"Oh!" She got up quickly, among snickers, and cat calls. "Uh, Hello! My name is Lily Evans, and I'm so honored to be this years' Head Girl. I'll try to fulfill all of my duties as a representative of the school, and as a friend to all of my fellow classmates. Thank you." She sat as quickly as she had stood.
"Lily, is something wrong?" Katherine was suspicious. That was never good.
"You look really tired, Lily. You aren't having nightmares again, are you?"
Lily shook her head no. They weren't nightmares, exactly. She didn't really know what to call them, anymore. Ever since that night one year ago, she couldn't get him out of her head! At, first, Lily hadn't really thought anything of her dreams. Subconscious embarrassment, she thought. But lately, her dreams had taken to being slightly erotic. Last night she hadn't gotten any sleep at all.
"You missed the Head Boy's speech, you know?" Tara, another dorm mate, informed.
"Oh? Did he say anything important?" Lily took a bite out of her chicken.
"Don't know, sorry."
Ella giggled. "Tara was too busy gawping at him to take in anything he said!"
"Was not!"
"Was too!"
"Wait, who's the Head Boy?" Lily asked. Man, was this chicken good.
"James Potter"
Lily choked. James Potter?
"Are you okay, Lily?" Ella asked while Katherine thumped her forcefully on the back.
Lily swallowed hard. "Yeah, I think so" she said, her voice a bit raspy.
"What happened?"
James Potter. "Went down the wrong pipe is all."
This could not be happening! She would be working with the object of her suenos erotica all year long!
"Wrong pipe, my arse. Everyone knows how much you hate James, Lily. Do you think you could remind us as to why?"
Lily snorted. "I have my reasons." He won't let me get any damn sleep, that's why!
Kathy threw up her hands in exasperation. "Come on, Lily, there has got to be a reason why you treat him the way you do!" Lily shot Kathy a look.
"There is a reason. I just won't tell you what it is!"
Her three friends sighed in defeat. Lily yawned.
"Hey guys", she said, "I'm really tired. I'm just going to go to bed." Her friends nodded, and she waved before exiting into the Entrance Hall, where she was apprehended.
It has to be against the law to look that good.no! Bad Lily! He was smiling smugly at her, his eyes gleaming.
"What do you want, Potter?" He hadn't even spoken, and he was already under her skin!
"James, Flower. Call me James"
"I know a number of things I could have called you, but since I have to set an example for the First years." her chest puffed out importantly, "I didn't, and won't, mention them."
If anything, his smile seemed to get wider. Lily fumed.
"I was thinking, Flower", Lily snorted, "Yes I can think, incredible as it may seem. I was thinking, that since we're going to be working together for the next year, we might want to take the time to get to know each other better." His smile was becoming suggestive.
"Over my dead-"
"Actually, before you object, you'd probably like to know that the Headmaster also thinks that a get together is in order-"
Lily's jaw dropped. How could Dumbledore do this.?
"Which is why he's arranged for us to meet tonight at around, let's say, eightish?" Lily's jaw dropped further.
"I'll take that as a 'yes'! Oh, and before I forget, bring that little red nightie with you. You'll definitely be needing it!" James winked roguishly, and before she could reply (or smack him into next week), he was gone.
A/N: Yay! Chapter two! Much love to Lena Ketina, ReGimenD, crimsonthread, Whiteriver, HarrysVampire, and Nami, who all reviewed my story! Thanks, and remember; reviewing is still STRONGLY SUGGESTED!
