"So Katrina, why are we even building this anyways? I mean all it is, is a portal, nothing more. You can't die in it, nor can you live. I just don't get what the big deal is I guess." Lily said with a sigh to her best friend, in the future of course.

"Well the minister said that it was the place where spirits could choose whether they wanted to be ghosts or go on to something better; because the other system that they had was getting faulty." Kat replied.

The two of them worked as Unspeakables in the Department of Mysteries.

Then once again Lily was zooming back into reality. She sort of crashed into her body this time and gave a dazed look up at James. He looked down at her confused. Though for him no time had gone by at all, Lily still looked like something strange had just hit her in the head.

"What happened babe?" James asked concerned "I had another vision… this one was weird. I'm not really sure how to explain it, except I was an Unspeakable and I was working on this thing called the veil." Lily laughed "I know that Unspeakables aren't supposed to say anything, but since I'm not officially one yet, I can do whatever I want with it" she smiled with a sort of devilish grin.

They decided to go back before sunset. They held hands as they were walking back through the dusk. It was so beautiful as the stars started to light up the sky. Lily couldn't imagine a more perfect moment with the one she loved. The humid air kept them warm even though it was getting colder.

They crept into the castle, very quietly since it was after curfew. James took out his invisibility cloak and they headed up towards the Gryffindor common room. But to Lily's surprise instead of going towards the common room, he was heading towards something else.

He tugged on her hand so she would come with. Then he lead them towards the room of requirement. He took of the cloak and started pacing back and forth. After the third time, the tapestry transformed into a door and they walked in.

James thought this would be a special place because they had discovered it together. The room was different this time. There were sofas and cushions galore. There was a warm fire blazing and plenty of candles.

Lily looked about, it was so romantic. What was James doing all this for? He must really love me. 'He's been such a sweetheart' she thought.

His eyes met hers and he leaned in to kiss her. She kissed him right back. And things started getting more and more heated. Before Lily knew it they were lying on the couch still kissing. James slowly, very slowly started to roll Lily's shirt up; she barely noticed until it was about to her bra.

Then she broke apart and said "James, I love you tons, more than you can know. And I know this has been a special night for us. But the thing is, is that I think we should wait, for a while. I mean I know you want it, and I do too; but I just don't think we as a couple are ready for that sort of commitment. I hope you are ok with that" she finished looking carefully for his reaction.

He didn't say anything for a minute before responding "ok Lily, I'm willing to wait, because I love you and if that is what you want then no problem with me."

They went back to snogging and then eventually went to bed, very late at night.

James collapsed into bed that night. He was so exhausted after that long day. 'She said she wanted to, just not now' he thought with excitement. That was pretty much his last thought before he went into a very deep sleep. Though it was deep it was restless, and he had a very strange dream.

There was a dark alleyway; it was long and seemingly never ending. James started to walk down it wondering where it started and where it ended. There were puddles and it was so dark that James couldn't see anything. And when he felt around for his wand, it wasn't in his pocket, in fact it was no where to be seen.

He kept walking, but he had the very uncomfortable feeling that he was being watched. He kept walking; it was as silent as death, except for the click clocks of his footsteps. It felt like he had been walking for miles when he heard a distant laughter.

He stopped walking straining his ears so he could hear it better, but he didn't really need to because the voice sounded like it was getting closer and closer. The laughter was getting so loud that it was starting to hurt his ears.

Then he started to make out words. "James, James, James… you seem to have a traitor in your midst." The voice was raspy and sort of snakelike "you should learn to choose your friends more carefully."

With those words from the mysterious voice James started to run, but realized he was stuck in the spot, he couldn't move. Then he tried calling for help, knowing it would do nothing since the place was completely deserted except for the voice. Then he saw a flash of green light. And fell to the ground, dead.

James opened his eyes wide, he was sweating. What had just happened? He wondered. It was one of the weirdest dreams he had ever had, but it probably meant something. But he couldn't figure out what, obviously one of his good friends was untrustworthy but he couldn't figure out who it possibly could be, surely it wasn't one of the marauders or Lily's friends.

Just then he noticed a figure staring at him at the foot of his bed. He looked up startled; it was definitely not a boy, so it wasn't one of his room mates. "Lily?" he asked unsurely, he couldn't see barely anything without his glasses, and he had also just woken up.

"You look so hott when you are confused. No it's not Lily" the voice said sort of annoyed. James felt around on his nightstand for his glasses, as soon as he found them he picked them up and put them on.

It took a second for the person to come into focus but ones they did, he glared. "What do you want Brielle?" James asked with a sigh "don't you have something better to do than sneaking into Gryffindor and finding your way up to my room to do god knows what?" He glared at her as he said this.

She smirked. "No I had something better in mind" Brielle said seductively, James instinctively backed up, which resulted in him banging his head on the backboard. "Shit ouch!" he muttered under his breath, rubbing his head trying to get rid of the throbbing.

She walked over to him smiling with a very 'you're not going to regret this' smile on her face. "What are you doing?" he asked. She just smirked back and kept walking towards him, once she was close enough she bent down and kissed him.

She forced her tongue into his mouth and he tried to push her off but he was way too strong. He kept trying to push her off of him. 'How could a girl be this strong?' he thought 'wait that was a totally sexist comment, I didn't mean it, but damn she is strong.'

Then the worst thing that could possibly happen happened. "James?" a tentative voice asked from the doorway. He finally succeeded at pushing Brielle off of him. She fell to the floor, looking hurt.

"Lily it's not what it looks like" James tried to explain "you know bloody well it is what it looks like Potter!" Lily retorted furious.

"How could you do this to me, after five years of begging and pleading for me to go out with you. Well guess what, I did and it looks like I've made a huge mistake, the worst mistake of my life."

"Lily I was trying to push her off, she was doing this to me, I couldn't stop her she was too strong!" he tried but to no avail "too strong? Too strong! Do you actually think I believe that lie? You are the bloody seeker of the Quidditch team, you have muscles of steel, and you are telling me that this anorexic bitch was stronger than you, I highly doubt that!" Lily continued.

"And after last night! To think you had been cheating on me the whole time, you make me sick. You are nothing more than a wet dirty old toe rag.

"James we are over! And don't you even think of trying to explain it to me, I saw it all with my own eyes. Don't ever speak to me again!" and with that Lily stalked off.

James looked down at Brielle who lay on the floor and she promptly said "so do you want to remind me where we just finished?" she asked seductively, starting to sit up.

James kicked her back down and said "you are such a whore. If you ever even think of coming near me I'll aveda kedavra your sorry ass. NOW GET OUT!" he yelled at her. She quickly got up and scrabbled out of that room before anyone could even say 'Quidditch'.

He just sat on the bed, he couldn't even move. 'It's not my fault is it? I mean I was trying really hard to get her off of me! But Lily didn't see my struggle, all she saw was me push Brielle off when she started speaking, I can't say I'd be happy with her either if I saw that.'

'But I love her so much! And I would never do anything like that to her for real. I just can't believe she's never going to speak to me again, I'm not going to be able to bear it. I used to when we were younger but that was before she fell in love with me, now I'm practically head over heels for her. I mean she's the one I want to spend the rest of my life with!'

He couldn't even think any more, he just sobbed. Numb with pain. If any of the guys walked into the room he would be much quieter, but he was alone. And he ended up crying himself to sleep.

Authors note: Sorry, that was a lot longer than a week. Did you hate it, or now hate me? I just wanted to show that no one is perfect, not even the famous Lily Evans or James Potter. And it seemed like they were getting Mary Sue-ish. Anyways here's how it's going to work for reviews:

5-10: two to three weeks until I update

10-15: One week

15: Sometime this week.

So please review!
