Chapter 2 and 3
Everyone was having their dinner as usual until Sirius Black burst through the oak doors. He was wearing silky black boxers with a lacy, black and pick bra to match. Everyone broke out into laughter except Sirius and Lily.
" Oh my Merlin," She whispered
" What's the matter?" asked Remus, James smiled
" That's m-my-my-Bra!" She said, putting her head in her hands. Sirius sat down next to her, " This bra is really uncomfortable if you can't fill it out. It's huge by the way…"
Lily got up, walked to the other end for the table and sat down, muttering something about, 'stupid bullying gits' and 'not changing'. James suddenly felt guilty and didn't talk for the rest of the feast.
Lily went to her dorm, put on baggy pants, a small tank top and snuck back down to the Gryffindor Common Room. She found it was empty, so she cuddled into a ball on the couch and stared into the fire. She heard footsteps on the boy's staircase, but when she looked, there was no one. She shrugged it off and turned back to the fire. The footsteps continued walking to the portrait hole. Then she heard whispers, "Come on Padfoot; let me say 'I'm sorry' to her."
"No Prongs, there's no time."
" Yes there is." Lily turned around again and saw an arm. Soon, out of thin air, Sirius, James, and Peter were standing not too far from her. Sirius's eyes were wide, "Uh-oh."
Chapter 3
" What do you think you're doing?" Lily asked Sternly.
"We-er-u-well-we were just-," stuttered Sirius nervously.
"Oh my," lily said sarcastically, " THE Sirius Black is stuttering?" James snickered. "Shut up Potter." She snapped, " Why are you sneaking out? I'll go easy on you. But only if it's a good reason."
They glanced at each other and James answered, "We were going to visit Remus in the hospital wing." Lily's expression softened at the mention of Remus.
" Fine, but be careful and don't get back to late." She scrunched up her nose, "That sounded too Mum-like. Do whatever you want."
They nodded thankfully and dashed out the portrait hole, with the invisibility cloak and the Marauder's Map to go meet their werewolf friend, Moony.
Peter changed into Wormtail and pressed the knot on the Womping Willow. Padfoot and Prongs, with Wormtail, met Moony in the Shrieking Shack. The four friends ran around the grounds of Hogwarts. They came in early in the morning, around 5:00, Remus going to the hospital wing. When they walked into the Common Room, they found Lily, standing by the fire with her arms crossed, tapping her foot impatiently,
"Where have you been?"
"Uh-I'm going to get ready," said Sirius, " Me too" Agreed Peter, both running up the stairs.
" Heads Common Room, Potter, now!" James followed Lily to the Heads room, obediently.
James was looking at her, not really listening to what she was yelling about, but watching how her green eyes would flash, and her long dark red hair would swish around.
"…reckless! You can't just abuse your position like that!"
"You're pretty when you're mad," James smirked, taking off his cloak, forgetting the gash on his left rib. Lily gasped and James looked at her in concern
"What's wro-," but stopped when he saw what she was looking at. He cursed under his breath.
"You have to have someone look at that!" She yelled.
" I'm fine, we can just go to bed and forget this ever-"
"No come here."
"Wha-,"
Lily grabbed his shirt and ripped it in half ignoring James
"I liked that shirt" She rolled her eyes. Lily didnt realize until now how nice his body was (A/N: Oh lala hahah I'm funny). It must have been all those year of Quidditch training and playing.
James caught Lily staring (more like ogling) and she blushed. She took a washcloth and conjured up a bowl and filled it up with hot water. She put the cloth in the water and took it and squeezed it out. She put her left hand on his right should and with her right hand, applied pressure on his left side by his ribs.
James didn't even feel the pain he should have been experiencing right about then. All he felt was Lily's soft skin against his. He couldn't believe that she was helping. Not that he was exactly complaining…
The white cloth turned red within minutes.
"You're bleeding a lot, James, does it hurt?"
James blinked
And blinked
And…. blinked again.
"You called me…James. Ahem, but er- no- not really-no."
Lily nodded and dunked the cloth into the water, which turned to pink. She repeated this until she thought it was clean. Lily conjured up bandages.
" I don't need those," James said hastily moving backwards.
"Yes you do, sit down." She took his wrists and pulled him down to the couch. She put the bandage carefully on his cut. She stopped at his back and met her right hand with her left. They both stood up to make the job easier. She immediately realized she was in hugging position and quickly pulled her hand to the front, blushing redder then ever. She continued until she ran out. When she did, both her hands were holding his bandage behind his back. She absentmindedly moved closer to him, as did he to her. Lily was short and only reached up to James's nose. She fixed the bandage but made no move to take her hands back. She liked where they were thank you very much!
She could feel his hot breath on her left check and it tickled her neck, making her shiver. She turned her head and found herself moving closer to him, glancing at his lips. Their lips were just about to meet when a cat that had randomly decided to live there knocked over a couple of heavy books, making them both jump. Lily realized what was happening and busied herself with cleaning the mess. When James was about to say something, she said,
" I have to get ready, it's already 7:00," and she walked to her room and shut the door softly. What James didn't know what that, once she closed it, she slid against the back of the door to the floor, breathing heavily.
James plopped back down on the couch, running a hand through his heavenly hair, muttering,
" Bloody cat."
