~*Someday We'll Know*~
Lily walked up the now familiar path to Gryffindor Tower. She turned to another corridor, stopped, and saw James talking with a Ravenclaw girl.
"So..you wanna go to Hogsmeade with me tomorrow?"
"Uh.I would if I could. I have a DADA quiz tomorrow that I really have to study for."
Lily didn't want to barge in so she waited for both of them to leave before she entered the common room.

Lily sat by the fire. She sat on a chair with her legs dangling off the side of the armrest while reading a new book on the history of Hogwarts. She felt someone tap her shoulder and she titled her head upside down, letting her hair touch the ground, to see who it was.
"Hey, Lils," her best friend said.
She said her "Lo" and continued reading her book.
"Look. I'm not going to Hogsmeade with anyone and you're not going to Hogsmeade with anyone. So, why don't we just go together?"
"How about...no," she said with attitude.
"What? Why not?"
"Why don't you go with some other chick?"
"They all turned me down."
"The only reason you want to go with me is so that you don't look like a loser alone."
"Of course. Why else would I ask you?" Lily's face dropped. She started to get really pissed off. "I.I.I.I mean, Since we are best friends and all it would be weird right?"
"I dunno. We've never gone out."
"Come on, Lil. Please?" He tried hard to give his best puppy dog face.
"Fine," she said, giving in to persuasiveness. "I'll make an appearance."
"Thanks. I owe you one," he kissed her forehead and walked away.
"More like 'I owe you another one," she whispered to herself.
