Chapter 6

I feel so happy. I'm now Will's girlfriend. This year couldn't be more perfect. Well, it would help a lot if Josie would just stop waking me up. It's Sunday for heaven's sake. You're not supposed to wake up early on Sundays.

"You know Josie, you must be breaking some law," I said.

"I guess I'll have to go to Azkaban then. Now wake up."

"I hate you."

"I know someone you definitely don't hate," Nona said as she applied make up. I blushed. Of course I had to blush. I always have to make things even more embarrassing for me.

"Oh, yeah. How was your date?" Josie asked.

"I'm going to take a shower," I said loudly. I got my towel and ran to the shower before they could stop me.

After taking a really long bath since I had all the time in the world, I appeared. Nona and Josie had bored looks and they frowned when they saw me.

"That was very cruel of you, letting us here in the dark," Nona said. Dark? They saw the whole date!

"Oh, so waking me up wasn't cruel? Besides, you two watched the whole thing."

"Yes, silly, but it's from a completely different point of view," Josie said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Oh, of course. Why didn't I think of it that way? Okay then. We talked. And talked. And at the end of the date he kissed me. Satisfied?"

"He kissed you?" Josie said.

"Yes. But you already knew that, right?"

"Of course. So, does he kiss as well as the Ravenclaw girls say?"

"Even better," I said. I smirked and left the dorm. They followed me and we made our way to the Great Hall. I looked over at the Ravenclaw table but I didn't see Will. He's probably sleeping, since his friends are actually sane. We sat down, unfortunately, next to the Marauders, since there were no other places left. Which is odd, considering that it's really early.

"Oh, yes, Nona, you owe me five galleons," Josie said.

"Why?" I asked.

"Well, we bet on if you'd admit you kissed and I won." How dare them, bet on me! I hit Josie and Nona on the head and we giggled.

"Erm, Evans?"

"Potter, why do you have to say my last name first before asking me anything?"

"Dunno. Anyway, is it true that you and Adams are going out?" I narrowed my eyes. It's none of his business for heaven's sake.

"Yes, why?" I know he's thick, but I had no idea he was so thick. I mean, we were talking about the date right next to him.

"Oh, nothing. Just curious." I shrugged and started stuffing myself. Then I felt arms wrapping around me.

"Good morning Lils. Up so early?" Will whispered in my ear. He's so sweet.

"Hi. Erm, Josie woke me up."

"Ah. Meet me after breakfast by the lake, okay?"

"Sure. But I have to finish my homework later."

"I'll help you. See you." Will left and I smiled brightly.

"He's so sweet Lily. Helping you out with your homework," Nona said.

"He's only doing his job. Every boyfriend has to help his girlfriend. Besides, you don't need help with your homework," James said. I wonder why he's so grumpy.

"Must I remind you that you didn't help me with my homework when you were dating me?" Nona said sourly.

"Er-yeah, I have to go." James stood up rather quickly and ran out of the Great Hall. His friends followed him, sniggering and shaking their heads.

"Well, good bye to you girls, I have to talk to Will." I went to the lake and found him sitting there.

"Hullo again," I said brightly.

"Now that's something new. Lily Evans waking up early and being cheerful," Will said. I slapped him playfully.

"So, what'd you want talk about?" Will leaned over and kissed me. We then proceeded to, as Josie would've so colorfully described, trying to snog each other's faces as if there was no tomorrow. Of course, she adds a few words that I'd rather not think about. Anyway, I was quite breathless when we broke off, though I was only allowed to catch my breath for a few seconds since Will apparently wasn't to keen on wasting time.

After a long while we stopped our snogging session and it was time for lunch. I hurried to the common room and found Nona and Josie with bored looks on their faces. They looked up when I came in and they smirked.

"Lily, is that a hickey?" Nona asked in a stage whisper. A few heads turned and I felt my face go bright red. So that's why everybody was staring at me. Oops. And Nona had to be so discreet.

"Oh my god, it is!" Josie said very loudly. Sometimes I wish I'd chosen my friends more carefully.

"Let's go upstairs, okay?" I said, trying not to blush too much. They nodded and we hurried up. I went to a mirror and sure enough, there was a hickey. Oh dear. What am I going to do?

"Don't worry Lils. Nothing make up can't cover," Nona said. She immeadiately got her make up case and told me to sit down. I groaned.

"I hope so. I really don't want to go around school displaying a hickey. The Marauders would tease me so much."

"I doubt it. James is kinda depressed. They didn't even hex Snape today. Yet," Nona added as an afterthought.

"Wow. That's a new one," Josie said dryly. Nona finished applying the make up in silence and after checking that nothing was visible. I went to lunch, since the girls had already eaten. To my surprise, I found Remus eating lunch alone and, not wanting to make him feel left out, I sat next to him. I also didn't want to sit alone.

"Hullo Remus. How are you today?" I said.

"Fine. You?"

"Great. So, what have you done today?"

"Basically, I've tried to cheer James up."

"Yes, Nona told me he's kind of depressed. Is there a particular reason for it or is it just one of his moods?"

"Ah, well, there is a reason, but I can't tell you. James wouldn't be too happy with that."

"Of course. So, have you done your homework already?"

"Not yet. James, Sirius, and Peter are extremely time consuming. Luckily they went to the kitchens to eat lunch. You can stand only so many Sirius jokes a day." I laughed at his little play on words joke.

"I understand. I hear at least one of them a day and I get annoyed. But then again, it can be my red head temper."

"Probably."

"Hey! We never came around braiding each other's hairs!"

"I was joking!"

"I know… I just love teasing you."

We continued eating in silence and then I went to the Ravenclaw table to call Will. We went to the library and tried to do our homework. We did it though, with great difficulty. Well, it's not my fault. It's rather difficult to concentrate on a Potions essay with one of the hottest boys in Hogwarts whispering sweet things in your ear. That's what I told Nona and Josie, but of course they laughed at me. I really don't know why they keep asking me to tell them things if they're just going to laugh at me afterwards. It's ridiculous. From now on I won't tell them anything. Or not.

"Matthew Wood just asked me out today," Nona announced while we read Witch Weekly's in our dorms.

"That cute Hufflepuff?" Josie asked without looking up from her magazine.

"Yep."

"What did you say?" I asked.

"Yes, of course. We then, erm, went to one of Filch's supply closets."

"Ah, the infamous supply closets," Josie said. Nona blushed deep red. Josie is right. Almost every girl in Hogwarts has had a snog in one of Filch's supply closets. I'm included in the part that hasn't gone to the closet. Note to myself: must snog Will in one of the closets. I smirked at Nona.

"So, are you officially dating?" Josie said.

"I suppose so. I do hope I don't find him snogging someone else though. One is enough." I wish I knew why Nona tortures herself about her breakup with James. I mean, everyone knows he doens't usually have longterm girlfriends. Of course, I don't know what it's like to find your boyfriend with another girl, so I can't really complain about Nona. At that moment my owl appeared and dropped a letter off. It was from Robby.

Hey there Lils. The Caribbean isn't as great as everyone says it is, so don't get too upset. Actually, it's excellent. Sorry. But it must be great over at your school. I just wanted to tell you that I met this girl, Pamela, and she's really nice. I'm bringing her over at Christmas and for heavens sake don't have a jealousy attack. Violet still won't speak to me. I hope you're satisfied. I also felt that I should warn you about Petunia. She's dying to have you try on the bride's maid dress. Oh, and they're ugly. I hope you and Aunt Jane get her to change her mind about the dresses. They're just...nasty. I'm surprised someone can actually make a dress like that. And Uncle Roger nearly had a heart attack when he discovered the price. I swear Petunia is going to bankrupt the family and your wedding will have to be under a bridge with an ugly and plain white dress. Right. So I want you to answer me immeadiately and please say you'll be nice to Pamela. Love, Robby.

I laughed out loud and got a piece of parchment. Robby always makes me laugh. I'm not quite sure about this Pamela though.

Hi ugly bum. Thanks for reminding me that you guys are having fun while I'm stuck here doing homework. Firstly off, I'll have to think a lot about how my treatment towards Pamela will be. Secondly, Violet was an idiot, you deserve better. Thirdly, please don't let Petunia buy ugly dresses. Her wedding will already be horrible and if I'm wearing and ugly dress it'll be even worse. And I really doubt my wedding will be under a bridge with a plain and ugly dress. Well, I have good news too. Will(you know, our neighbor, he's also a wizard) asked me out and now we're officially dating. Isn't that great? And no, I won't bring him for Christmas. Although Mum will probably invite his family anyway. That is, judging we'll still be dating by then. Break the news to Mummy and Daddy gently, will you? They must be really stressed out because of Petunia. Anyway, I love you, Lily.

I gave the letter to my owl and she left immeadiately. Poor thing. She must be so tired. Speaking of tired, I think I'll skip dinner and sleep. At least I won't be so sleepy if the girls wake me up early again.
