Both Sirius and James cursed quietly as Lily moved across and chatted to Remus, Sirius because although Remus wasn't quite as bad as James, he still didn't want Lily to get hurt, and she would if she took an interest in Remus, there was so many reason why this won't work. James cursed because it was obvious that Lily was attracted to Remus, and as he was attracted to Lily this just wouldn't work, after all James couldn't go out with Remus' girl.
Remus however couldn't be happier, this stunning girl was taking an interest in him, not to mention from the sounds of it they would get along well, both could carry an intelligent conversation for a start, now he didn't mean anything against the other girls, they were all really smart, but the thing is, having hung around with James, Sirius, Lucius and Sev for so long had changed their interests slightly.
"So you read the Tales of Beedle the Bard as well?" Remus asked sounding quite surprised.
"Of course, I mean I never grew up with these kinds of tales being from a muggle background, however I found the books in the Beauxbatons library, and since finding them I've just been almost addicted to them," Lily said happily, finally finding someone with a similar interest in books as her.
"It is addictive those books, my father used to read them to me, I know they are children's books, but it almost seems there is something there that needs to be figured out," Remus said, his like of Lily growing with each word.
"Exactly, I know it's there, I just can't seem to find it, like trying to grasp smoke," Lily said eagerly.
"Exactly!" Remus exclaimed, embracing Lily, both of them laughing. "Oh my, you mentioned the Beauxbatons library, how big is it?" Remus asked.
"Huge!" Lily exclaimed. "There are multiple copies of every spell book, and we have the largest collection of rare books in the world. It was amazing." She said excitedly, before pausing for a second. "We didn't have any books on dark magic though, the Headmaster thought it would be too easy for a student to use them for the wrong purpose, if you needed a book on dark magic you had to go see him, and explain why you need it, and then you could burrow it for the day." Lily explained.
"That seems sensible though," Remus said.
"It does knowing some of the people who went to Beauxbatons," Lily said. "Power hungry lot they were, especially if they had money worrying really."
"Do you think it is much different here?" Lucius drawled butting into the conversation.
"I would hope so. Mind you..." She looked from Lucius shoes to his eyes, and then curled her lip. "Maybe not."
"You better watch your mouth!" Lucius hissed, Sirius was going to intervene when Lily replied.
"You better watch your ego. If it gets much bigger, you'll suffocate us all." Lily snapped, shutting Lucius up in shock.
"Erm, Lily, I've got rounds, want to join me, they're boring when you have to do them alone," Remus said, hoping to bring Lily away from the tension, Sirius didn't have time to react, and before he knew it Lily was out the door and walking down the corridor with Remus, in a final attempt to stop this Sirius stuck his head out to yell for Lily, but was shocked to see Remus take Lily's hand in his own, and Lily smile up at him.
"Sirius, don't do this," Reggie sighed, yanking his brother back into the compartment.
"I'm not doing anything," Sirius whined.
"Padfoot, she needs to feel like she can trust someone other then her brother while she's here," Mars said reasonably.
"And Remus is a really nice guy," Allie added.
"Not to mention you'll only upset her if you try and interfere," Nay said finally. Silence settled and both Sirius and James grunted.
"Padfoot, it will also mean James stays away," Dorcas added quite cuttingly.
"Good point!" Sirius exclaimed, and turned to his best mate. "Prongs, stay away from Lily. She's my baby sister." Sirius said.
"She's also my sister," Reggie said rolling his eyes at his brother.
"Yeah, well you're only two months older then her, I am a year older, and so I have to look after her," Sirius argued and then sat back in his chair, he had a feeling this would be the most stressful year he'd ever have.
Lily smiled as she walked with Remus along the train, she notice he was tall, taller then she had thought, but it was nice, comforting.
"So how long were you with your ex?" Remus asked as they walked along the silent corridor, still holding hands.
"Too long. I think really we were just together because we were. If that makes any sense..." Lily said smiling sadly, she did love Jason, it just wasn't the same as being in love with him. And it had ended up with them just being together because they were.
"That's a nice bracelet," Remus mused as he looked down and spotted the bracelet around Lily's right wrist.
"Yeah, Sirius gave it too me for my sixteenth birthday," Lily said fondly, it was a simple white gold bracelet, but every other link had a small white gold heart hanging from it, with a little diamond in the top right hand corner. "He was shopping with me, and noticed that I really liked it, and got it for me as a surprise."
"Sirius is a good person." Remus said, Lily smiled up at him, as he smiled down at her, and acting on impulse Lily leant up and brushed her lips lightly against his, before smiling at him again.
Remus looked slightly surprised, but in no way unhappy, he actually looked really glad she had.
"I was wondering if it was too soon to kiss you," Remus stated looking down at her, Lily bit her lip as she smiled mischievously.
"Only if you can catch me," Lily said before bolting down the corridor laughing, it took Remus a second to recover from the reply he hadn't expected. As ran down the train until he came to the last compartment which was empty except Lily. "You found me." Lily said softly as he walked into the compartment. Remus nodded silently, Lily bit her lip again. "You know I've never done anything like this before, it's a bit more exciting." She said softly, as she got up and walked towards Remus, and then closed the door, he turned around and she was standing behind him, leaning against the door, smiling as he chewed on her bottom lip. He hadn't realised that someone could look so innocent and yet suggestive at the same time.
"You're a bit different from the other girls," Remus said as he leaned down to her little, so he was whispering in her ear.
"I'm a bit different to anyone you know," Lily replied evenly. Before pushing him against the opposite wall, she stepped towards him slowly, and he realised she was slightly nervous, this was new territory to her. And so he simplely held her hands in his own in a comforting manner before placing light feathery kissed on her nose, cheeks, ears, forehead, and finally her lips.
"Do rounds usually take this long?" Sirius demanded from Mars who was the other prefect.
"Oh for Merlin's sake Sirius!" Nay exclaimed finally. Throwing her arms into the air.
"Padfoot, Remus isn't doing rounds," Sev said fed up of Sirius' complaints. "He's taken her out of here because Lucius is a git." he said shoving he thumb in Lucius' direction. "He was doing her a favour."
"Or maybe he's just doing her." Dorcas snipped.
"Oh be quiet Dora!" Allie snapped. "You're just jealous that James has been drooling since he saw Lily."
"I haven't!" James exclaimed.
"Mate, you have," Reggie said in a slightly disgusted tone.
James grunted. Sirius sulked and everyone else lapsed into easy conversation.
