CHAPTER 2
Three days had passed since Lily and James argument and Lily was still refusing to speak to James, no matter how hard he tried. In those three days the four marauders were busy planning their invisible attack on Snape.
"I think we should use the jelly Legs Jinx" said Lupin wisely
"Moony, it's too tame! What's surprising, but at the same time strong, but also funny?" James wondered
"I think the one sn-snape used on m-me," stuttered Peter
"You're only saying that because it's the only jinx you know! Anyway he'd know it was us" Sirius laughed
They all sat there silently thinking to themselves until James jumped up.
"I've got it!" he cried "okay so we use levicorpus right, and then we confound him so he's completely confused and this is the best bit- we make him drift along into Slughorns class! Smashing all the potions!"
"But you said that Evens loves potions?" said Peter confused
"EXACTLY!" Evens will think Snape smashed all the potions and she will come running to me!"
Remus, Sirius and Peter all exchanged glances. But James didn't seem to notice, he was in a world of his own.
"Look mate," Sirius started " I know this all seems good, but Dumbledore would work out who it was with some of his crazy magic! Maybe, we should just leave it for now"
James stared at him completely bewildered.
"What's wrong with you guys at the moment!" James said obviously annoyed
He glared at them all, waiting for a reaction, but he didn't get one.
James glanced back at them one last time before stalking out of the dormitory.
On the way back down to the common room he cursed loudly, resulting in scaring some small first years.
Suddenly he heard someone call his name.
James spun around "WHAT!" he shouted right into Lily Evens bright green eyes . "Evens! I mean Lily! Sorry, I um , didn't realise it was you, sorry." He trailed off
"I think I've caught you at a bad time, I'll just go" She said turning around
"NO!" I mean Im fine,"
"Okay," she said tentatively
"So um, what did you want to talk to me about?" said James, ruffling his hair.
"I just wanted to say im sorry about the other day," she blushed
James stood there stunned, until he seemed to get over his astonishment
"no, no I mean you don't have to be sorry, it was all me , really."
Lily smiled " thankyou," she whispered
She stood on her tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek.
As she walked away James brought his hand to the place where her lips met his cheek.
His mouth slowly turned into a grin , which stayed there the rest of the night.
