Lily had finally reached the stomach of the dragon. Hurrying down the stairs, somehow managing to not break her neck, she found James in the Great Hall for lunch.
"James!" she called happily. He looked over with a grin on his face. "I've made it to the stomach!"
Understanding dawned on his face so he made room for Lily on the bench. He wrapped an arm around her waist. "Alright, how about we smash it on the table? I'm not really in the mood to eat all the chocolate, are you?" Lily shrugged.
"I don't know, it was nice chocolate," she said noncommittally. Handing it over to James, she was excited to see what was inside.
"On three?" James suggested. Lily nodded. "One, two… three!"
With a loud bang, James thumped the dragon belly onto the table. Seconds later, Lily started screaming.
"What the HELL is THAT?" Lily screeched. James was equally shocked at what was before him. The rest of the school, intrigued by the noise, crowded around to see. Lily's friends got there first.
"Don't tell me that's what I think it is," Hestia gulped. Marlene looked disgusted as well.
"I think I'm going to vomit," she said.
Sirius pushed his way through the crowd to see what was going on. "Prongs, what's… oh, awesome! Is that a real dragon's heart?" Overjoyed, Sirius leaned between James and Lily to pick it up. The bloody, green heart was slightly larger than Sirius' hand. He tossed it between his hands, each catch making an odd squishy noise.
"Alright, I am actually going to be sick," Marlene whispered, then pushed her way through the crowd and out of sight.
Sirius paid her no mind. "Oi! Moony! Catch!"
Throwing it into the crowd in the general direction of Remus, who cleverly moved out of the way, screams were heard throughout the hall as the students tried their best to stay out of range of the heart.
Lily was still in shock, hardly paying attention to what was going on around her. "James… I was eating that chocolate! It was probably contaminated! Merlin, that chocolate tasted nice!"
James looked unsure as to what to say. "Let's just never get one ever again, alright?"
"Never ever again."
