Boot Camp.

Why?

"So, what're we going to do today?" Lily was considerably perkier after I'd given her a potion to cure her hangover.

"Well, I was thinking, later, we could go pay the others a visit," I grinned.

"Why later?" Lily asked, confused.

"Because if we go earlier we have to help clean up," I winked and she giggled.

"Alright then, so what're we doing now?"

"... I'm not sure Madam Evans, what do you feel like doing?" I grinned.

"Can we go to Hogsmeade?" she asked after a long pause.

"Anything you want, Kins," I grinned.

Lily blushed and I shook my head, chucking.

"You need to get that face of your's under control, Kins."

"Shut up," she stuck her tongue out.

"You want to go now or have something to eat beforehand since neither of us can understand the others tastes?" I chuckled.

"The latter." she grabbed my hand and dragged me out of her room, towards the kitchen.

"Have you two got any plans for today?" Mr Evans asked as we sat down at the dining room table.

"Well, Lily wanted to go to Hogsmeade and then we're going to visit the others at my house, after they cleaned up the place that is," I replied, chuckling.

"Why Hogsmeade, Lilyflower?" Mrs Evans asked.

"All the other students say either their first Hogsmeade visit or their first view of the castle is their favourite Hogwarts memory, so I guess I just wanted to have one of them," Lily sighed as she swirled her spoon in her white tea.

I nodded and already a plan was formulating in my head.

"Well, we better be off or we'll run out of time, it was nice talking to you Mr and Mrs Evans," I chuckled after checking my watch after a few minutes of conversation.

"Have fun!" they chuckled as Lily pulled me out of the room with only a goodbye to her parents.

"Wait a moment Lily," I grinned as she was about to disapperate.

"What now?" she whined playfully.

I held up the tie and she pouted.

"Come on, Kins! It'll be more exciting with a blindfold on."

"Fine," she pouted again as I tied it around her head.

"Alright, we're ready," I grinned as I grabbed her hand and apperated to the centre of Hogsmeade.

"Can I take it off yet?" Lily pouted.

"Not yet, Flower," I grinned as I looked around for anyone familiar.

"Now?" she asked hopefully a few moments later.

"Yes, but let me," I chuckled as I moved behind her and slowly untied the tie, letting it fall away from her eyes so she was now facing the wide snow-covered Hogsmeade stores.

Her eyes were alight with wonder and excitement.

"It's... beautiful!" Lily gasped as she looked around the square, twirling around on the spot to try and see it all at once.

I chuckled as I watched her dart around the square, peering into all the different stores with wild excitement.

"Where to first?" I asked as I caught up to her outside a jewellery store.
