If you got the last chapter with everything underlined, I don't know why it did that . . .
And I'm trying to get the story on Portkey, but it takes a bit to become an author on there . . .
Here's your update!!
I'm glad you guys like it and think it's getting good!
CHAPTER NINE: Kiss and Tell
"Told you what?" Lily asked.
"That you like me," James said.
"Oh, of course I like you James. You're my friends," Lily said.
"No, Lily . . . She told me that you like me . . . more than a friend," James said.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Lily said.
"I think you do," James said.
"I have no idea what you're talking about," Lily said.
"Lily, why are you so afraid to let yourself like me?" James asked.
"Because you're James Potter, the guy who has a different girl everyday and the guy I'm suppose to hate," Lily said
"Do you hate me?" James asked.
"Half the time," Lily said.
"Do you hate Megan for telling me?" James asked.
"Of course not, she's one of my best friends. And she gave me a choice, I could tell you or she could," Lily said.
"Do you hate me right now?" James asked.
"It's hard when you keep talking," Lily said.
James took a couple more steps towards Lily and pressed his lips to hers softly. He expected her to pull away, slap him and scream. But it never came. He pulled back slowly.
"You said I should stop talking," James said, smiling.
"Um, I - I have to go," Lily said. She hopped off the counter and headed towards the door. She took one last look at James and left.
James sighed. He couldn't believe he messed things up with Lily, again. He was just trying to show Lily that it was okay that she liked him. He hadn't meant to scare her off. He needed to go find Remus; he could help James with Lily.

Lily needed to be alone. She headed for her dorm. She hadn't meant for James to kiss her. Had she? Had she wanted him to kiss her? Now she was confused.
And hungry. She didn't have a chance to grab anything to eat. She could go back. But what if James was still there?
He probably wasn't, he probably left to go talk with Sirius about why she'd run off. He probably hated her now for running away after he kissed her.
Her stomach grumbled loudly.
She decided to take the chance and get something to eat. She turned around just as she reached the entrance to the Head's Common. She walked back to the kitchens, confusing some of the elves.
She had a sandwich, an apple, and some cookies without running into James. What was she going to say to him next time she saw him? She didn't know. Maybe she could just wait for him to bring it up.
Yeah, that's what she'll do.

"What did I do wrong, Moony?" James asked his friend after explaining what happened.
"Maybe things were moving to fast for her," Remus said.
"But, Megan told me that Lily likes me," James said, confused.
"James, Lily isn't like you, okay? She doesn't snog people in public. Maybe she just doesn't move as fast as you do in relationships. Try taking it slower," Remus said
"How?" James asked.
"Well for starters, did you make sure she actually likes you or did you just take Megan's word?" Remus asked.
"I just took Megan's word . . ." James said.
"So you didn't find out if Lily really likes you before you kissed her?" Remus said.
"You kissed Lily? What'd she do?" Sirius asked, coming over to the table where James and Remus were.
"Yeah," James said.
"Did she smack you?" Sirius asked.
"No, she ran away," James said.
Sirius laughed. "Are you that bad?" James wasn't laughing. "Oh, you're not kidding."
"No, I'm not. Megan came and told me that Lily like me. And I was talking to Lily in the kitchens and I kissed her and she ran away," James said.
"Bad luck, Prongs," Sirius said.
"Shut up, Sirius," James said.

"Hey, we just saw James talking with Remus, looking sort of glum. Did something happen between you two?" Haley asked coming into the kitchen.
"How'd you know I'd be here?" Lily asked as she finished eating.
"Cuz you didn't come to dinner. Now answer the question, did something happen?" Megan said.
"Well, kinda . . ." Lily said.
"How kinda?" Haley asked.
"He kissed me," Lily said.
"Oooh! Congrats!" Haley said.
"What'd you do?" Megan asked.
"Ran away," Lily muttered.
"You ran away?" Megan said.
"Sort of," Lily said.
"Why?" Haley asked.
"I don't know! I got scared, I guess," Lily said.
"He seems to think he did something wrong," Haley said.
"How do you know?" Megan asked.
"I overheard," Haley said.
"You mean you eavesdropped," Lily said.
"Call it what you want, the point is - I heard," Haley said.
"So, he thinks he did something wrong?" Lily asked.
"Yeah," Haley said.
"What're you gonna do?" Megan asked.
"I don't know," Lily said.
