Chapter 2- Quidditch Practice.

Lily was walking through the halls after a nice lunch in the great hall. Talking to Severus about some potions. They talked quite often. He was a great friend to her. There was a wooshing sound coming through the hall. They turned around to see four boys, on brooms, flying through the hallway. It wasn't just any four boys though.

When James realized it was Lily and Severus standing there he turned around and just floated near their heads. "Hey Evans, quidditch practice in an hour. Wanna watch a certain seeker play." He shot her a flrity wink and Severus glared at him.

"Oh James, You know it's been my dream to see you play. You always look so hot on a broom." She said sarcasticly. James just turned the broom and went off down the hallway with the rest of the boys.

"If you're not going because of me, you can go." Severus told her.

She smiled at the gesture. "No, really. I have much better things to do with my time."

She smiled and blushed a little. Severus had always had a crush on Lily. He hated that James was always flriting with her. He wanted her to be only his.

Lily bumped him on the shoulder playfully and started walking down the hall again. An hour later she looked out the window and saw James showing off for a few girls. She huffed, grabbed her jacket and stomped out to the quidditch pitch.

She got there and saw about five girls swooning as he did tricks on his broom. "Okay girls, beat it." The girls gave her a dirty look and shrugged away.

"Evans, you made it. You just couldn't stay away, could you?" James snickered.

"Don't flatter yourself." She said looking around at the tall stands. James noticed.

He stretched out his hand and lowered the broom. She looked at him confused. "Come on Evans, not afraid of flying, are you?"

"What? No." She lied. It was obvious and he lowedered the broom even more.

"I'm not gonna let you fall." He added. She looked at gave him an odd look and he smiled. "You can trust me Ev- Lily."

Lily was taken aback that he used her real name. He had been calling her Evans for years. As in five years. Lily thought for a second. Then she took his hand and swung one leg over the broom. "If I get hurt it's your fault."

He shrugged and took off into the air. Lily was in front so she wouldn't have to worry about falling off. James could feel her relax a little as they went longer on the ride.

After a few minutes he came down to the ground and let her off. "Did you have fun?"

She fixed her hair and nodded. "Thank you. It was surprisingly comforting to be up there with you." He smiled and looked at the ground. Lilt did the same before skipping over to him and kissing him on the cheek. "See you later." And then she was off towards the common room.

James smirked at the kiss. He could feel her lip gloss still on his cheek. He didn't wipe it off so he could show the boys.

Lily walked back to the common room smiling ear to ear. She had seen a different side of James today. A better side.
