Nervously, Lily walked into the Three Broomsticks with James Potter. Woah.. pause! Since when did Lily Evans get nervous around James Potter? And how in the world did they make it that far without her slapping him? Hmm...
Looking around TTB, Lily found an empty table off towards the left of where they were standing and walked over to sit down. "So..." She started, looking for something to say to break the awkward silence.

"So... uh... how's life?" I asked her. JAMES POTTER! I AM APPALLED AT YOU. THE GIRL OF YOUR DREAMS HAS FINALLY AGREED TO GO OUT WITH YOU AND THE BEST THING YOU COME UP WITH IS 'So how's life?' YOU DISAPPOINT ME.

Giggling just a bit, Lily said "Life's been pretty good. Heard my sister's dating some whale of a guy, so that's kind of disturbing, but other than that, life's been pretty good." She paused for a second before saying "How's life been with you?"

"Well, you're here with me now. It can't get much better can it?" I asked hoping she wouldn't slap me.

Aww, that was sweet. NO! Lilian Paige Evans, you will NOT be falling for James freakin Potter. No way, No how. She yelled at herself. Ignoring the argue going on in her mind, she smiled, and said "So, I heard you made seeker for the quidditch team, congratulations."

"Yeh I did, but if you don't like quidditch then we don't have to talk about it. I want this day to make you feel special. This day is all about you ok?" I asked.

(OOC: wooooooooahhhh, sorry this took me a while to reply XD I've been going back and forth between the last 20 posts, and I didn't see it. sorry!)
Lily opened her mouth to reply, but Molly cut her off. "Molly Prewett!" She bellowed, flinging her head around to look at her. "I hope you have your speech ready." She mouthed, reffering to their little bet earlier.

"No, Molly's free to leave. " Lily said. I like it just the two of us... She thought, and before she could hesitate she had said it out loud. "I like it just the two of us."

I had to say I was surprised she said this. My eyes must have looked as big as saucepans or something near that size. "I...uh...I like it j...just the t...two of us aswell," I said stuttering. Since when did James Potter ever stutter?

(OOC: gr, I keep missing this thread XD sorry!)
Lily was just as suprised that she had said it also. She hadn't planned on saying it... she was quite comfortable with it staying right there in her head. But nooooo, it just had to slip out.
Why must these moments always be awkward? She thought. A small smile on her face, Lily said "Well I would hope so, I mean, all those years would've been a big waste if you didn't like spending time with me." Smooth Lily, real smooth. she thought sarcastically.

"Indeed it would. I hope you're enjoying yourself. Are you?" I asked worried, in case she wasn't.

Post by Lily Evans on Mar 26, 2007 20:26:39 GMT
"Of course I'm enjoying myself." She said, smiling. "So... it's our last year in Hogwarts, any plans after we graduate?" She asked.

"I'm going to join the order," I said stupidly. JAMES YOU IDIOT! THE ORDER IS SUPPOSED TO BE A COMPLETE SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT. OH I COULD BOIL YOUR HEAD RIGHT NOW! "What about you? Any plans? Would you want to have a family some day?"
|

Post by Lily Evans on Mar 26, 2007 20:34:51 GMT
Lily started to chuckle when James stated that he was joining the order. "You're lucky I am too." She said. "I've never really thought about a family. I mean, were only 17, I figured I'd deal with it when the time comes."

"Thats a good plan. I guess I do want a family but no where near now. Don't tell Sirius please? He'll think I'm going soft or something," I pleaded. "So how about career options? Anything you wanna do?"

"Don't worry, I won't tell." She said, smiling. "I always kind of liked the idea of being a healer." Lily said. "What about you?"

"I don't know. Maybe the ministry? Still not sure. So how about your family? Do you like them?" I asked.

Post by Lily Evans on Mar 26, 2007 20:53:52 GMT
"If by family you mean parents, then yes! I love my family. My sister, not so much." She said.

"Whats wrong with your sister?" I asked curious.

"Shes just... She's just a little bitter about the fact that I'm a witch, to put it nicely" Lily said.

"So she's a muggle then? An evil muggle?" How could anyone be mean to Lily? "We don't have to talk about this subject if you don't want to," I added nicely.

Post by Lily Evans on Mar 26, 2007 21:16:34 GMT
"No, it's alright, I don't mind." Lily said. "And yes, she's an evil muggle." Lily said, chuckling slightly.

"You know what? You can ask me some questions if you're uncomfortable. I have nothing to hide!" I said confidently.

"You have nothing to hide do you?" Lily said, tilting her head to the side. "Alright then, why do you like me so much?" She asked.

Okay I admit, I had not expected this question and was sort of surprised when it came up, but I decided to answer truthfully since I knew she would never trust me if I didn't. "I like you so much because you are beautiful and yet you never seem to realise how beautiful you are. Also because you always seem to be happy even when you are upset, you have a smile on yur face. And because you are smart and kind and caring and giving. You aren't afraid to speak your mind or try new things. And that in my opinion makes a perfect girl. Oh I forgot something! When you talk, you don't only talk with your voice, but with your hands aswell and when you smile it lights up a whole room. You are just perfect in every way in my eyes!"

"You really do have nothing to hide." She said barely above a whisper, and smiling. Suddenly, not caring that they were in public, with plenty of other Hogwarts students around, she kissed him. "How come I never said yes until now?" She muttered against the kiss.

I quickly pulled away. "I thought you hated me," I whispered.

"I used to." She said simply. "But now... now, I don't see how I ever could have."
