Sorry forgot to put that on Chapter 1 ;) happy reading!
Chapter 2
Lily was greeted by a blast of sweet (and decidedly cleaner) air that was layered with the smell of malt and chocolate when she walked through the door, and into Honeydukes. She savored the smell for only a moment as she was quite sure that Severus would be hot on her trail. Sure enough when she glanced out the shop window, there was Severus belatedly beginning his twitchy walk towards the door of Honeydukes. Just like a spider Lily thought disgustedly, before moving deeper into the throng of students in the shop hoping to lose herself among the madness. When she was confident that she was deep enough so as not to be spotted (plus the fact that she was protected by a loud group of large obnoxious boys that she was sure Severus wouldn't come anywhere near) Lily began to peruse a selection of assorted large lollipops, but decided against buying one when she saw this pudgy looking blonde boy's lollipop rotate off the stick and drift out the shop door. Instead she picked out some truffles that looked less travel prone and started towards the counter to pay. "EVANS!" boomed an overly excited voice from behind her. Lily jumped about a foot in the air, and thinking that perhaps she might now be deaf in that ear, turned to give that cocky boy a piece of her mind. James Potter was standing over by a tray of fudges and staring straight at Lily. Oh great thought Lily, this day is just steadily getting worse. Sirius Black who was standing behind James, rolled his eyes once he saw the object of his avid fixation and slapped him on the back of the head to get his attention. James paying neither mind to Sirius nor the fact that the tray he was next to was not very stable, proceeded to wink at Lily, tousle his hair, and lean one elbow on the tray attempting to strike his best cool guy pose. Lily was not impressed by the pose, or the fact that a moment later the tray wobbled and came crashing to the floor taking a very oblivious James with it. James then proceeded to scramble to his feet and tell a very annoyed looking storeowner that he was going to buy all the fudges for his girlfriend, who was by the way a very attractive redhead. Lily blushed a little and began to smile before she realized just who this was, and gave him a very intense glare. "James stop it" Lily snapped "I'm not your girlfriend! And…. And" Lily struggled for a minute to find the right words then just finished quite lamely by saying "and I don't even like fudge." James gave her a knowing smile (Lily was not quite sure why) and then received his second thump on the head of the day by the angry storeowner who had just fished out her wand and restored the fudge to order. Lily turned on her heel and thinking that maybe she could escape while James was preoccupied with the fudge lady tried to make a daring escape. One moment too late though she realized what a dreadful mistake that was, Severus was standing in a corner looking awkward but started towards Lily as soon as he saw her. Luckily the loud group of boys (mentioned earlier) unwittingly came to Lily's rescue, blocking Severus from seeing her or completing his journey to get to her. Quickly Lily slipped out the door and had her second heart attack of the day when a loud alarm went off. Seeing the storeowner rush towards her, Lily looked down and saw the still unpaid truffles in her hand. Damn you Potter she thought, now on top of everything turns out, she's a shoplifter as well.
