Disclaimer: Wait a minute...wait a minute...yyyyeee...nope I still don't own Harry Potter

It was dark when Lily woke up her neck aching from the uncomfortable position she had been sleeping in. She gasped and sat upright when she realised she was still in the library jeez I must have been tired she thought.

She slowly stood up and stretched blinking sleepily. Thank goodness I still have the invisibility cloak in my bag now I won't get caught walking through the castle this late. She wrapped the cloak around her and started her journey back to the common room. She was passing the main hall when she felt a sudden urge to just go outside and stare at the stars. She always found it very relaxing.

She performed the 'alohomora' charm again and slipped out the main door. She wandered down the lawn until she reached a patch of ground that looked suitably comfortable. She lay down on her back and gazed at the twinkling lights above her. A sudden noise interrupted her reverie however when she heard footsteps behind her. She rolled around so her was lying on her stomach and saw the stag again. The same beautiful one she had seen last night.

The dog was there as well bounding along beside the stag. Well this is Hogwarts I suppose a stag is allowed to be friends with a dog she thought to herself. She blinked suddenly and pinched herself to make sure she wasn't dreaming. The stag had suddenly changed and there was in it's place a boy. A boy whom when he turned around to stare at the dog ran his hands through his hair in a very familiar movement. The dog had changed as well into the unmistakeable figure of Sirius Black. The boy of course was James Potter.

What the hell just happened? Lily thought as James and Sirius ran quickly towards the castle and disappeared inside. James and Sirius are animagus?! That's impossible, they're so young. They can't be registered, that's illegal, what are they doing? Why? All these thoughts ran through her head and then one particular one surfaced James must be very skilled to be able to change into an animal LILY it doesn't matter how advanced the magic is it's still wrong! Her conscience told her.

She sat there for a while longer and gaped wordlessly at the doors through which Black and Potter had vanished.

Back in the boys dormitores Sirius and James had just slipped in.

'That was amazing, we should go to Hogsmeade at night more often!' Sirius said

'Yeah, it would just be so much easier if...' James trailed off realising what he was about to say

'You mean if we had the cloak right? Well that's your fault, you should ask her for it back! Who knows, she might say yes now that you've mauled her!'

'I did not maul her,' James protested, 'I passionately kissed her. There's a difference.'

'Whatever mate, just ask for it back before she decides to give it to Dumbledore or something!'

'You know,' James said thoughtfully, 'I think she's been using it...to follow us and stuff.'

'What do you mean?' Said Sirius

'Well, that morning in the hospital wing I could have sworn that was her voice I heard. I would recognise those dulcet tones anywhere.' James said gazing into space and he imagined Lily's voice in his head

Sirius gagged and said 'whatever, I thought all you heard was 'ow' how could you tell who it was from that?'

'I just know' James said meaningfully, 'plus I thought I saw her tonight, she seemed to be half visible, the cloak must have slipped off her. She was lying on the grass for some reason.'

'You mean she saw us?!' Sirius said urgently to James who did not seem to have grasped the full context of this realisation. 'She saw us...change?'

'Oh crap' was James's reply.

The next morning James and Sirius awoke in a panicked state of mind. Lily Evans was a good girl but she also was fiercely loyal to her friends. Did James and Sirius count as friends enough to be trusted by her?

'Look you should talk to her seeing as you're closer to her' Sirius sniggered

'Fine, but if it doesn't work I don't want you hexing her or anything!' James replied before he strolled down to the common room in search of the fiery red head who now supposedly knew their secret.

He found her studying a book called The Effects of Bubotuber Pus and how to Counteract them. He grinned remembering an unfortunate experience he had once had with the same substance in herbology.

'Hey Lily, can I talk to you for a second' she blushed for some reason and then he remembered the kiss they had shared yesterday. Ah, he might have to talk about that as well.

'Sure, sit. I have a question for you.' Lily said

'Err...alright. Well okay erm. Shoot.' James replied

'Yesterday.' Lily said, looking meaningfully at James expecting him to catch on. He didn't. 'You kissed me'. She said

'Oh right, that well yeah um...well I err did you..er like it?' He finished feebly, smiling weakly at her.

Lily felt a blush creep into her cheeks again as she stared into his once again strangely sincere face. Why the hell do I keep blushing around him?

'Well um..yes I can say that I found it well...enjoyable I suppose.'

James sighed in relief, that was a better answer than he had been expecting. 'So I guess I will see you again when we go to Hogsmeade' he said panicking and getting up to leave.

'Wait a minute!' Lily called after him, 'didn't you want to talk to me about something?'

'Oh right yeah...um..can I borrow your notes from transfiguration, I lost mine.' James said, chickening out at the last minute

'Oh' Lily was surprised at this 'yeah I guess okay.'

'Cool' James said before remembering he had excused himself and he hurried off to hide from Sirius.

What the hell was that? That was so not what he was going to ask me! I should just ask him, spit it out, James Potter can you or can you not change into a stag? What if I'm wrong, oh my god that would be so embarrassing.

Lily then remembered their date for Hogsmeade that weekend and determination rose in her. She wouldn't let these new weird feelings for James Potter to get in the way, she would ask him out right. And she would make sure he answered. If it came to the last option...there was always the cloak.

Sorry about all the ... but I figured they would be quite nervous around each other and that's the only way I could convey it. SO REVIEW PLEASE!!!!!!!! (I'm trying to see if the more ! I put the more people will read this and REVIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
