Lily

I had arranged to meet Sirius in the library at nine later that day, since it was only seven I had plenty of time.

"Are you sure you're not coming for dinner? Do you want us to save you anything?" Jess asked me worriedly. I smiled at her and shook my head before they left the common room and followed the rest of the Gryffindors out.

As I continued to read my book, I couldn't help but think about potions. What had just happened didn't mean anything had it? When I had fallen on James for what felt like the millionth time in the past week, I had had that feeling in my stomach as if butterflies were inside of me. Had he felt it too? He hadn't moved away from me...but did that mean anything? Was my Jess' plan working? And if it was, why was he going out with Alecia? So many questions would stay unanswered if James...well...If James didn't do anything...

As I continued to read I became aware that someone was standing in front of me. I looked up and my gaze met James Potter's dark brown eyes. My heart went into over-ride and I felt myself wanting to run away.

"Hello Lily..." He said with a small smile on his lips. I hoped to Merlin that he couldn't hear my heart slamming against my chest, trying to escape and run to him.

"Hello..." I managed to squeak, quickly clearing my throat as I continued to look into his shadowed eyes.

"Sorry about the mess in potions." He grinned, sitting next to me on the sofa. I couldn't feel my knees...thank Merlin I wasn't standing. I looked away from his probing eyes and began fidgeting with the book in my hands. Ok, keep cool Lily, keep cool!

"Good luck with that..." My mind scoffed. I ignored the voice and continued to focus on my breathing.

"In...out...in...out...come on breath out! Out!" I screamed inwardly.

"It's alright, any excuse to get out of potions..." I smiled back at him, not looking up.

"Yeah..." He laughed lightly, taking the book out of my hands and looking at the cover before tossing it onto a nearby chair.

"So you're going out with Sirius?" He commented, lying back into the sofa but never looking anywhere else apart from me.

"Yes...And you're going out with Alecia Spins- I mean Spence..." I replied, as if stating how things were. But hopefully they wouldn't be like this for long...

"Yeah...She's...She's different...That's for sure." He told me. I turned to look at him as he ran a hand through his hair.

"Different? How come?" I asked, not entirely understanding what he had meant by the word.

"Well...she's not the brightest girl I've ever gone out with." He began, chuckling quietly and shaking his head. Despite my nervousness I managed to start laughing.

"Sorry..." I muttered, realising how rude I was being about his...girlfriend...

"Don't be. It's true. I don't think she's ever heard of the word IQ before." He joked, making me laugh once more. He watched me as I laughed with a smile.

"You are so beautiful when you laugh..." He said quietly under his breath, looking away from me. I stopped laughing and stared open mouthed at him. Surely he hadn't just said that! Surely it had been my imagination?

"What did you just say?" I questioned him in a whisper. His head snapped up as if only realising that he had spoken those words out loud.

"Oh! I didn't-I said-I didn't say-Nothing..." He stumbled, looking back at me and directly into my soul...

I shifted closer to him on the sofa and looked right back at him with the same intent.

"So you like Alecia then? Despite her IQ of a five year old?" I grinned, causing him to laugh.

"It depends..." He began, leaning towards me, his lips inches away from mine.

"Depends on what?" I asked him, but he quickly silenced me by placing his lips on mine.

I was finally getting my first kiss, and it was finally with James Harry Potter...

Merlin life is good.


James

I hadn't been able to keep away from those soft red lips any longer. As I kissed Lily, running my hands through her hair, stroking her knee, pulling her against me, I could feel my pulse racing faster than anything in the whole world.

"Lily..." I murmured against her lips, pushing her against the back of the sofa, moving my hands back up to her hair.

"James..." She moaned as I moved my lips to her neck, holding her against me, never wanting to let her go...

"Remus, I swear if you say that again I'm going to hit you. Hard." I heard Sirius laughing outside the common room doors. Lily pushed me off of her abruptly and jumped from where she had been sitting.

"Meet me in the astrology tower at ten." I whispered in her ear, before the doors flew open.

"There you are Lily! I didn't see you at dinner. Ready to go out?" Sirius asked my Lily. Well, she wasn't my Lily, not yet anyway…

"I wasn't hungry. I was just asking James where you were." She replied to him with a smile. Only I could see her crossing her fingers behind her back.

"Let's go. Hogsmeade awaits us." He grinned back at her. I gritted my teeth before realising that this was my best friend that I was loathing. I shook the thought out of my head and walked over to him.

"Alright mate?" I asked, hitting him gently on the back as I came to stand beside him.

"Yeah, I'm good, I'll see you when I get back." Sirius grinned, taking Lily's hand and leaving the room. I watched as Lily quickly turned back to glance at me. She sent me a wink before following Sirius out of the common rooms.

There was no way I was going to be able to forget those green eyes any time soon...
