Accio Love- A Jily Fanfic

Chapter 35

Up in the stands, the wind was not forgiving. Lily's lips were practically turning blue and Marlene was bouncing up and down to try and stay warm.

"Catch the snitch. Catch the snitch," Marlene began chanting. Lily laughed and moved closer to Marlene for body heat.

"So. Cold," Sirius chattered next to Marlene.

"Come cuddle with us," Lily's eyes watered as a particularly harsh breeze hit them. They all huddled together to stay warm during the game.

"I SEE IT!" Sirius suddenly yelled and jumped to the front of the stands. "GET ME A BROOM I'LL BLOODY GET IT!"

"Sirius," Lily dragged him back as some younger kids looked at him, terrified. "Chill," she smiled at him.

"Go go go," Marlene spoke through gritted teeth as the seekers dived towards the ground. "I don't even care who wins at this point. I just want to go back," she shivered.

"GRYFFINDOR WINS!" The announcer yelled. The gryffindors all around them were cheering and laughing, but Lily, Marlene, Sirius, Remus, and Peter all had already started to leave the stands to get back to the common room.

"Frogs Breath," Lily chattered at the Fat Lady and they all gladly fell around the fire.

"So. Warm," Marlene melted into Sirius who slung an arm around her.

"Got to go grab things from the kitchen," Remus reminded Sirius who nodded.

"We'll be back, ladies," Sirius winked at them. Marlene fell dramatically to the floor and Lily shook her head with a smile.  People started filtering into the common room.

A couple older students were hanging decorations around the room. Some fifth years went to change into skimpy outfits to try and impress some guys. A couple members of the team started to trickle in soon after. Lily and Marlene had grabbed a blanket. They were watching a fifth year, Adeline, try and flirt with a sixth year, Daniel, who was a Beater on the team. Someone had started some music and by the time Remus and Sirius came back with food, the party was in full swing. Sirius came back over and dropped some bottles of Firewhiskey on the floor for the group of them.

"Come on, Evans," Sirius picked up a bottle and tossed it. Lily barely managed to catch it. "Don't be a party pooper," he winked and Lily rolled her eyes. "Let's play a party game!" Sirius exclaimed.

"Sirius," Remus quietly warned.

"No no, Moony, it'll be fun! Every time that Lily and James make awkward eye contact, drink!" Sirius opened his bottle and began to drink. "Or whenever you want to drink just drink."

"That's not a game, Sirius," Marlene stuck her tongue out and Lily smiled. Lily hesitated before opening the bottle of Firewhiskey in her hand.

"Chug chug chug," Sirius pounded his fists.

"What's going on?" The group hadn't even noticed James enter the common room. He plopped down in between Remus and Sirius.

"Trying to get Lily dear to chug," Sirius motioned towards Lily.

"You know I've never seen you drunk," James spoke thoughtfully as he grabbed his own Firewhiskey.

"Because I'm not trashy," Lily took a slow drink. "But if that's what other people want to do," she shrugged.

"Boring just DRINK!" Sirius interrupted.

"I took a drink," Lily laughed.

"Do I need to spell it out? C-H-U-G!" Sirius practically was shouting.

"Merlin," Lily sighed and shook her head before bringing the bottle to her lips. She ignored Sirius cheering and whooping as she set down the empty bottle and shuddered.

Between the six of them, there was twenty-two empty bottles. Peter stopped after two. Marlene had three. Lily wanted to beat Marlene so had four. Remus only had one. James and Sirius had six each, and counting.

"What about- ha- about the- um- EY!" Sirius got up and stumbled after Marlene who was going over to get some snacks. Remus and Peter were discussing some homework and James had left earlier somewhere.

"I have to pee again," Lily sighed and got up. "I should shower," she put her arm up and took a sniff.

"Have fun," Remus looked up at Lily as she stumbled to the portrait hole. Lily walked lazily to the fifth floor and into the Prefect's bathroom.

"Mermaaaaaaid," Lily sang out which made herself laugh. "Maybe I am a little tipsy," she thought out loud.

"Lily?"

"Ahhh!" Lily jumped and dropped her wand when she heard her name. "Whoopsie," she bent down and picked up her wand with a giggle.

"Did you follow me?" James asked, curiously.

"What? No," Lily shook her head then paused. "I don't think so," she frowned. "No I came to shower," she laughed as she remembered.

"Drunk?" He shook off his hands that he just washed.

"Hmmm. Perhaps," Lily spoke thoughtfully. She stripped off James's sweater and tossed it next to the bath. She was left in a tee shirt.

"Perhaps?" James laughed. Lily nodded and turned the handles to fill the tub.

"Okay a lot more than perhaps," Lily grinned as she sat on the floor and began to untie her shoes. She took her socks off and set them next to the sweater.

"You wore the sweater," James pointed out.

"Of course. You told me too," Lily stood back up. The next couple moments are a little fuzzy, but ultimately the two found themselves wrapped in each other's grasps desperately making out.

"You told me you needed space!" James almost yelled in the middle. "I gave you space."

"Too much space," Lily groaned. "I hinted in every way possible I was ready to get back together!"

"What?! I heard you tell Moony that day how I should move on!" James yelled. Half the castle could probably hear their conversation as they yelled at each other. It was like they were trying to yell over insanely loud music, but all there was was the water overfilling the tub and the mermaid brushing her hair, unbothered.

"You div! I said I don't want you to move on!" Lily yelled back.

"Well... I love you," James spoke after a couple moments.

"Well I love you too!" Lily responded, frustrated. They continued to kiss for a while longer. Somehow, James's hands wandered under Lily's shirt and travelled up to her waist, bringing her shirt up with his hands. Lily didn't fight it either. Neither of them were sure if it was the hormones, the Firewhiskey, the feelings, or something else.

Before anything could progress further, a fifth year Ravenclaw, Sadie, walked in. She froze when she saw James and Lily. Walking in on your head boy and girl making out at near two am with what appeared to be clothes coming off, was not exactly on Sadie's agenda. She slowly backed out and let the door slam. Lily quickly shut the water off as the tub had overfilled and was spilling onto the floor.

"Right. Goodnight Evans," James didn't meet her eyes as he walked to the door.

"Potter," Lily nodded and the door shut behind him. The feeling of needing to relieve herself that made her go to the bathroom in the first place had been long forgotten. Lily quickly stripped and got into the bath. She closed her eyes and groaned before pushing herself under the water.

Well fuck.
