(A/N): Hey Guys! WOOOH! CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED!

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Leo, Elaine, Shari, Nicholai, Brooke and Mia.

Elaine

I'll be there.

That's what he had said. Well, written. I doubted Leo would go back on a promise, but I waited in my backyard, long after the sun had descended behind the trees. It was nearing midnight, when I looked up, as if by chance, and saw him there, at the edge of the trees.

"Hey." I greeted him quietly, a smile blooming on my lips as I sat, facing the tree-line, on the seat of the swing set.

"Hi." He replied, a few seconds later, as he approached me where I sat, and seated himself on the swing next to mine.

We were silent for a few minutes, just enjoying the peace in each other's company, before he spoke up.

"You know, this reminds me of how I met Lily." I glanced over at him, one eyebrow raised and a small smile on my lips, eager to hear the undoubtedly exciting tale of how Lily and Leo had met.

"Oh?" I asked quietly, not wanting to press him, just in case, for any reason, it may be a sore subject.

"My first day in Cokeworth," The corners of his lips twitched up almost involuntarily as he remembered. "I snuck out of the house." I snorted lightly here, and he glanced at me.

"Classic Leo, then." He grinned at me, wide, before returning to the story.

"I went to the park, where Lily and her sister, Petunia, were fighting. I overheard everything, of course, but I doubt even a full-human could have missed it." I frowned slightly. I had always hated it when he called others, 'full-humans', like he thought we were different. We weren't any different, other than what was in our blood.

"Were they loud?" Leo nodded, staring at the night sky, filled with twinkling stars, his fingers wrapped limply around the chains suspending his swing.

"Petunia was yelling, and Lily was trying to get her to stop. She was apologising, for something she had no control over." Gee, I thought, who does that sound like? "She was apologising for being a witch." I raised an eyebrow slightly. As long as I had known her, Lily had seemed proud of her magical heritage, not ashamed of them.

"What happened next?" I asked in hushed tones, and Leo smiled, turning his gaze to me now, the pale light of the moon reflecting off his bright blue irises.

"Petunia stormed off, Lily left calling after her. I sat down on one of the swings after Petunia passed me, and I heard Severus yell out after Lily. I looked up, and Lily was heading towards me." He shook his head lightly. "She said hi, introduced herself, I did the same. Severus said hello, though he sounded like he though himself better than me." He smirked at me.

"And?" I asked quietly, glancing back at my house, to make sure no one was watching us.

"I decided to have a little fun with them. I said, 'Most muggles are afraid of what they don't understand, especially when it comes to magic.' You should have seen their faces, it was so funny!" I snorted quietly, nudging his shoulder with mine.

"Of course, the first time you meet people, you try to scare the crap out of them." He smiled down at me, and I realised, not for the first time, just how tall he was. He was at least a few inches taller than me, it was really crazy.

"Well, they deserved it!" He protested quietly, smile still worn proudly. How long would it be before it fell?

"Right, right." I pretended to agree, and he rolled his eyes but continued with the story anyway.

"Whatever. So, they were really surprised, but at that moment, my dad yelled for me to come home, so I left. I suck out every day after that though, to meet with them." I grinned at him, elbowing him lightly.

"Hey, remember how we met?" He frowned lightly, raising an eyebrow.

"Of course I do." I elbowed him again, and his frown deepened. "Stop that." I just grinned wider, but stopped anyway.

"It's good to see another early-riser..." I quoted quietly, staring at the sky now, reminiscing.

"It's a good morning to be up." Leo finished, and I returned my gaze to him, smiling fondly.

"If I hadn't sat next to you, we might never have met." I stated, and I could feel him staring at me. "I would never have gained a best friend. I'm so glad I sat down there." His hand closest to me released the chain they had been gripping, and secured itself around mine.

"Yeah, so am I." He murmured, staring at the moon again, face blank, the faint breeze ruffling his hair as it passed us by.

Quickly, and slowly, as if without realising it, I slowly drifted into a state of unconsciousness. My eyelids fluttered, closing, and my mind found a second to soar before I went numb, completely asleep now. It was past midnight though, could you blame me?

An insurmountable time later, I awoke, my eyes full of sleep, my head resting against Leo's shoulder in a way that probably wasn't healthy for either of us. I lifted my head, yawning, and I realised that it was nearing dawn.

The coal black sky, dotted with the brightest stars, had disappeared, replaced by a dark blue sky, rapidly lightening towards the horizon, where I could see the sun was just about to crest.

"Leo?" I asked, trying to figure out if he had fallen asleep too.

"Hmm?" He murmured, and his head twisted so he could look at me, his eyes filled with weariness.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" I asked, realising that he hadn't slept a wink while I had dozed, using his arm as a pillow.

"You seemed...peaceful." He told me, staring at the forest in front of us, as if he could see every detail of the bark, which he probably could.

"And you didn't sleep at all?" He shook his head, still refusing to look at me. "Why not?" He now glanced down at me, his face splitting into a tired grin.

"What if something had happened?" I stared at him for a minute, and he quickly returned his gaze to the steadily brightening sky high above our heads.

"You needn't worry." I murmured, hugging him from the side, and standing up. "I have to go, my brother will be up soon." He nodded, and started to stand up himself, and as I took a step forward to give him a goodbye hug, I tripped on the tree root that had gone unseen by me, even with the newfound light from the rising sun.

I began to trip, soaring forward through the air as if in slow motion. Quickly enough, Leo caught me, but the damage was done, and the debris would be far worse than either of us could have imagined. My lips, pressed firmly against his.

A few seconds later, we both pulled away, shocked and anxious, trying to gauge the others reaction. Leo took a step back, leaving me having to right myself or risk falling again, and in the second it took me to do so, he was gone, presumably into the woods.

I stared into them, the sun rising as I did so, pressing my fingertips to my lips gingerly.

We kissed!

(A/N): So, what did you think?

It's exactly what you all asked for: Leo and Elaine's first accidental kiss.

You can figure out what that means for yourself.
