Thanks to the people who reviewed! You guys rock! And don't worry I won't be keeping you in suspense much longer : P

'So you think she may actually like you Prongsie?'

James just shrugged his shoulders, "Sirius…. have you been snogging any girls in the werewolf passage?" asked James staring at the painting a couple of meters away.

" Nope Wh..."

but Sirius didn't need to finish his mouth forming an 'o' as he suddenly realised what James had been thinking…. "I guess we better leave this till another time then..." he said not wanting to interrupt Moony at such an important time...

Jerking awake suddenly, Lily had the immediate reaction of wondering whether the house was going to fall down, as she removed her face from her indented pillow and glanced around wondering how to get out. Only, to realize that in fact, nothing was wrong. Well, except from the person screaming out her name …

"Liiillllyyyyy!" echoed the unmistakable voice of Daisy bouncing of the walls as not a second later the door nearly came off its hinges as it was swung backwards and hit the wall with a bang, and through it running at break neck speed was Daisy, bed hair waving wildly and still in her pajamas. Unfortunately for Lily though, she didn't stop once she was in the room and continued to run flat out towards Lily who, still in her state of tiredness, was unable to react quick enough and found herself half smothered, half crushed from a wildly excited Daisy.

"Guess what, guess what, guess what!" she said bouncing up and down on top of Lily.

"What?" she asked, now interested at what news could have made Daisy willingly get out of bed let alone come screaming down the hallway. Not that it really mattered how much noise she made, her parents had been forcing her to come and stay here for as long as Lily had known her, so really the Potter's surely would have been used to it by now….poor things,

"CHELSEA KISSED REMUS!", she pratically screamed in her ear.

"Wow!" said Chelsea strolling into the room, "Better say it louder Daisy I don't think everyone quite heard you" she said in a failed attempt at being grumpy, due to the fact that she burst out into a grin the moment she sat down on the bed.

"Oh don't worry though we did!" said none other than Sirius Black strolling into Lily's room, his face lighting up at the sight of what would have been in his mind rather dirty, of Daisy sitting on top of a still very tired Lily.

"Ohhh" he quipped at them, "Do I get to join in the hugs and celebrations?" he asked, attempting a seductive glance at Daisy, "Or is Moony the only one who gets any action these days?" he laughed looking at Chelsea and sitting down in the purple armchair next to the bedside table.

"I don't think I really need to respond to that Black" said Daisy, still sitting on top of a now slightly agitated Lily.

"You know I do think it would be a good idea if you let me start breathing again in a second Dais" moaned Lily, disgruntled at the fact that not only had she been woken up, but was now forced with the presence of the three of them….when really all she wanted to do was go back to sleep.

"Don't worry McTennon" jumped in Sirius, "If Lily doesn't want you, I'll let you come celebrate on my lap…" he smiled, admiring his own wit.

At this point, much to Lily's relief, Daisy rolled off but before she could start her tryrade against Sirius Lily cut her off, her agitation and grumpiness starting to show through, "Please Black, not only do you wake me up and decide to conveniently take a seat in my room you then have to fill it with your dirty thoughts…"

"Don't you people have your own rooms to be in or anything else to do for that matter?" she asked

"Yeah God" said James sarcastically suddenly appearing in the doorway, "Don't' you have your OWN rooms to be in?" he said walking over to sit next to Chelsea on the end of Lily's bed.

Lily suddenly aware, of the huge bags she had underneath her eyes, not to mention the fact that she was wearing ..omg…only underwear a small t-shirt quickly pulling the covers up.

"Is this some secret plan to drive me insane?" she asked, sitting up slightly as James swivled around in his spot to look at her and she avoided looking at his eyes and turning pink.

"Whoa" exclaimed Zach, "Good Morning All! Where was my invite to the party in Lily's room?"

At this everyone just laughed at his timely arrival as Lily flopped back down in frustration.

"Hey sorry to interrupt but speaking of parties, I remembered why I came in here in the first place. I'm really sorry it completely slipped my mind, I just remembered when my mum sent an owl before, they're coming back from Romania tonight for their annual Christmas Party and she wants you all to come" he said apologetically

"Ohhh not fair!" moaned Sirius, "I thought it was cancelled"

For this comment he received a swat from Daisy as they started arguing

- "Don't be so inconsiderate…. Marie and Harold put lots of effort into them"

- "Yeah well I can't help it if they're boring!" he whined

- "You're so ingrateful"

Everyone else tuning out and turning their attention back to James, when they realized that the argument wasn't going to end soon.

"Don't worry though," he continued, "It'll only be for like tonight and then mom and dad are back off to Romania again….so then I can have MY party!" he exclaimed happily.

"Yeah!" exclaimed Sirius, putting his argument with Daisy on hold to butt in, "Now there will be a party!"

"Shut up Sirius! You only like them because you can get drunk and sleep with whatever girl decides to fall into your arms…", snapped Daisy still disgruntled after their argument.

"Yeah well I'm not the one who spent all the night last time SNOGGING AMOS DIGGORY IN THE BUSHES!"

"What!" yelped the rest of the room including Lupin and Hannah who had just appeared in the doorway and heard the end part of the conversation.

But they didn't receive any reply or exclamation as Daisy had taken the opportunity to launch herself on top of Sirius as they both went tumbling off the chair.

"I CAN NOT believe you just told them that!" she yelped beginning to hit him, not that it was making much of a difference seeing as Sirius was about twice the size of her and he just continued to laugh as Daisy attacked him.

"Alright!" yelled Lily above the sound of Daisy and Sirius and everyone talking, "I do believe it is time for you to LEAVE!... all of you…..right now!" she said, "Especially you two" she continued eyeing off Sirius and Daisy as everyone began to move out of her room.

"Otherwise I'm never going to be able to get changed!" she added as an afterthought,

"Why Lily, don't tell me you're naked under there!" said James laughing just before exiting.

Finally being able to get out from underneath the stuffy covers Lily rolled out of bed and grabbing a hair tie from her bedside table pulled her hair up into a scruffy ponytail, glad that everyone had finally left her room, but her pleasant thought came crashing to a halt as James ducked his head back into her room.

Slightly off guard Lily just snapped, "Not a word, James!" referring to the fact that she was standing in front of him in tiny undies and not to mention a tiny t-shirt.

"Hey wasn't going to!" he said cracking a grin, "What I was going to tell you though is that tonight kind of formal…you don't have to wear robes if you don't want …but….yeah just formal as I think some people from the ministry etc. will be there" he said.

"Oh ok cool I'll see you down at breakfast in a second" she said smiling despite the fact that she was half naked as he disappeared.

Sighing with relief that he was now gone and recovering slightly from the embarrassment of it all she turned to start making her bed, when, much to her displeasure James popped his head round the corner again,

"By the way Evans…." He smiled, "You look fucking hot!" he laughed as Lily sent a pillow flying in the direction of his head but he was gone the next second and Lily to ensure that nobody else decided to interfere with her FINALLY getting dressed picked up her towel and walked into the bathroom, making sure to lock it as she did!

Daisy was sitting at the dresser in her room putting on the last of her make-up. Well technically it wasn't actually her room but she'd been coming here since she was little so this was the room she always stayed in. The Potters and her family had been friends for god knows how long and if they ever had to go away she always came and stayed here and vice versa. Despite what people thought James and her were actually quite close. They saw each other a little bit like sister and brother...and then being best friends with Lily, Daisy was probably the only one that knew that despite what Lily said she did like James. And being so close to both of them made it even more frustrating that they wouldn't get together! But of course, she had a sneaking suspicision that something might happen this Christmas Break, maybe even at James's party in a few nights time (A/N: hint hint : P)

Daisy took a moment to look at her reflection in the mirror as she sat on the little stool. Her thoughts were drawn away from this however when she heard someone cough...twisting around she saw the form of a very charming looking Black leaning against the frame of her door. Dress robes draped around his large frame he looked tall and elegant. Well that was of course apart from the undone tie around his neck.

"Jesus!" he exclaimed as Daisy stood up from her stool, "When exactly did you get hot McTennon?"

"Don't even go there Black" she said shooting him her evil glare, "And don't call me McTennon, you know I hate my last name".

"Are you saying Black would suit you better?" he laughed.

"Wow!" she feigned shock, "A marriage proposal before a date…you are impressive!"

"So you're admitting you want to go on a date!" said Black triumphantly.

"Ohhh poor Sirius….no Black unforntuately apart from me not wanting to….ever….if I went on a date with you there'd be no one to keep your gigantic head from causing you to topple over!" she exclaimed.

"Oh well" said Black smiling and shifting his weight off the door frame, "It was always worth a try anyway" he continued walking forwards and stopping right in front of her, she shifted her eyes upwards taking in his huge frame,

"But seriously ignoring your crap... when are you going to go out with me?" he continued looking straight into her eyes, but she just chuckled and reached up on her toes to and started to do up his bow tie.

Now that she thought about it her and Sirius had been friends for a long time as well. Sure he was jerk but they'd been beaters on the Gryffindor team since third year and he had always been at James's house when she came to stay...she was really charged with the job of not letting his head get too big...he always pretended to hate it but she knew he really didn't care.

"What about the day you stop screwing every girl at Hogwarts" she replied cheekily.

She was sure he was about to say something back but they were interrupted by Frank poking his head through the door.

"Please hurry up and get downstairs….the party is about to start and you have no idea how scary Mrs Potter can be when she's stressed!" he laughed

"Alright, alright we're coming…"

When Lily emerged downstairs she was amazed to see how it had been transformed in such a short amount of time since when the Potters had gotten home that morning.

Marie Potter was standing over talking to Meldon Prewitt when she glanced over and was taken aback by the sight of Lily, who had just walked into the room, with loose curls hanging down over her shoulders and brushing up against her white dress and her eyes sparkling as she glanced around Marie could understand the reason her son had been obsessing over this girl for the past seven years.

The party had been going for a couple of hours and Lily found herself laughing as James moved her around the dance floor…

"And when did you learn to dance Mr Potter?" she said her dress swishing as they maneuvered in and out of various couples scattered around the floor.

"Oh come on" he said smiling, "Name one thing I can't do!"

Lily opened her mouth but was held back from saying one of the many sarcastic things she had lined up by Black poking his head right in the middle of them…

I have many things to say to that Prongs," he said a wicked grin on his lips, " For the first thing … you'll never be quite as good looking as m…" his sentence though appeared to be cut short by a sharp yank backwards, compliments of a very stern looking Daisy pulling at his collar….

Lily laughed again and they moved slowly away as the heard the remains of Daisy telling Sirius off…

"Why do you do that?"

"Do what?"

"Don't play dumb with me Sirius….."
