Ok, so here's my next chapter. Sorry it's short, but this is were I wanted to stop with this one. I promise the next one will be longer.


The next morning Sirius woke up to the smell of pancakes and soon ran down to the kitchen. He found James eating and very pensive.

"Are you sick?" said Sirius checking James' forehead.

"I am allowed to be pensive once in a while Padfoot."

"Let me guess. It's Lily isn't it?"

"Yes. Isn't it weird?! That without knowing, we move next door to her…it's like….like destiny. Like this is supposed to happen."

"James, mate, You're loosing it. Now stop thinking so much you know what happened last time. How about we get dressed and go for some ice cream?"

James glared at him, but then said, "Problem. We don't know where the nearest ice cream shop is."

After a very long silence they looked at each other and smiled. They knew exactly what to do. They grabbed forks and spoons, ran upstairs to James' room, and opened the window. As the last of the utensils hit Lily's window with a loud clink, a very irritated face appeared.

"WHAT?!" shrieked Lily.

"Do you think you can show us where the nearest ice cream parlor is?" asked James sheepishly.

"That's why you threw….whatever that was-"

"Forks and spoons." said Sirius.

"Forks and spoons at my window. Wait. Forks and spoons?! You were throwing forks and spoons?!"

Sirius pointed down to the now glistering ground. Surprisingly she didn't scream, she laughed. James and Sirius, at first surprised, joined with nervous laughs. They had never made her laugh and it was, to say the least, weird.

"So, will you show us?" asked James.

"No." said Lily flatly.

"Come on! We really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really-"

"Sirius! Shut the fuck up!"

"-really really really really really really really really really-"

"Sirius!" screamed both Lily and James.

"-really want some." said Sirius with a content look.

"Noooo!" said Lily about to close the window.

"We'll ring the thingamabob until you take us." said James with his arms folded.

"You'll do no such thing Potter." said Lily suddenly looking terrified.

"Then you'll take us." said Sirius also folding his arms.

Lily looked around as though looking for someone then answered, "Fine, but DO NOT ring the doorbell. I swear I this time I will kill you. I'll get you in a few minutes."

She closed the window and pulled close her curtains. Lily cursed inwardly and went down to her kitchen. Her mom was alone washing dishes. It was obvious who Lily got her fiery red hair from. "Mum is dad home?"

"No, he's working. What do you need?"

"Can I go to the ice cream parlor with the new neighbors?"

Lily's mom turned around and looked at her. "You know your dad wouldn't like that. He wasn't very happy yesterday when that one boy hugged you."

"When is he happy Mum?"

"Just call your dad and ask him if you can go to Marie's house. He won't know where you really are." she said completely ignoring Lily's question.

Lily sighed and dialed her dad. It didn't ring very long when she heard her father answer.

"Hello?"

"Dad can I go to Marie's house?"

"Why are you going?"

"Just to see her."

"Have you helped you mum clean?"

"Yes, the whole entire house is sparkling clean." she answered.

"Don't stay out too late"

"Ok."

"Behave yourself."

"I know." said Lily getting irritated.

"Bye princess."

"Bye." she said coldly and hung up. She ran up the stairs and went into her room. She never hated being called princess until a few months ago. A few months ago everything was different than how it is now, but she wouldn't want to go back. She was ignorant and stupid back then, but not anymore. She had wised-up.


I hope you enjoyed it as much or more than the first chapter.
