Thanks lovely, hope you have a wonderful day as well <3
Lily Evans x whimsical!reader ♡ 916 words
You recognize the sound of Lily’s footfalls thumping dully on the dusty floors, so you don’t jump when a figure sits down beside you. 
“Did you buy whiskey?” she asks. “You don’t even like whiskey.” 
“It’s not for me.” 
Your girlfriend hums, shuffling closer so her thigh is pressed against your knee where you have your legs crossed underneath you on the floor. In front of you is your candle, the flame flickering steadily, and your offering of the bottle of whiskey. Otherwise, the room is empty. “If you keep coming in here, eventually Michael’s going to figure it out and he’ll get a real lock put on the door.” 
Michael is your landlord, of whom Lily is constantly wary because his first course of action is always threatening to kick tenants out (though as far as you know, he’s never actually done it). 
“True,” you reply, “but don’t you think he’d appreciate it if I got the presence up here to quiet down? No one’s going to move in if it keeps making so much ruckus.” 
Shortly after the last tenants had moved out, you’d started hearing noises in the unit above yours. Sometimes it’s a light clicking, sometimes a louder thump like something’s fallen, but every time you’ve come up here to check there’s been no evidence of things having moved around. The natural conclusion is that there’s been some disturbance in the spirit world that’s resulted in a new presence squatting here, and you like to make friends with your neighbors. 
You know Lily’s a bit dubious of your theory, but your beliefs often differ from hers. She’s never made you feel like yours are any less valid. 
“Are you sure that making friends with the ghost won’t make it more inclined to make more noise?” she asks.
“Mm, maybe,” you muse, “but I’d like to think that if they like me well enough, they’ll listen if I ask them to keep it down. At least at night, you know?” 
Lily smiles, and the room warms in response. “Worth a try,” she agrees. “How long do you think you’re going to be tied up for? Dinner’s almost ready.” 
“Not much longer. As soon as the candle burns out I just have to look at the shapes in the wax, and then I can go.” 
“We’re going to have to clean up the wax stains before Michael discovers them too.” She leans over to kiss the side of your head, the soft curtain of her hair falling across your cheek, before sitting back on her heels and straightening up. “Alright, love, come down when you’re done.” 
You hum in response, listening to the comforting cadence of her footsteps as they leave. But then there’s another sound with them. A quiet clicking. 
You inhale softly as the flame of your candle flares slightly. “It’s here,” you breathe. “It’s listening.” Lily pauses in the doorway, and you clear your throat, trying to affect your voice to be calm and welcoming. “Hello? Can you communicate with us?” 
The clicking continues. You think—hope, maybe—that it might be growing louder, but it’s difficult to say. 
“Hello?” you try again. “We’re friendly, please don’t be afraid.” 
“Sweetheart, I’m not sure…” Lily takes a few steps toward you, a bemused furrow between her brows. “It sounds like it’s coming from in there.” 
She starts down the hall, and you follow hastily. She stops in front of a closed bedroom door, reaching behind her to grasp your arm cautiously. The clicking does sound louder here. Lily edges the door open quietly, peering inside. 
“Oh.” The syllable stretches as if drawn out from between her lips, sweet as spun sugar. “Hello, darling.” 
She lets the door fall the rest of the way open, dropping into a crouch. Over her, you can see the empty, dusty room, rich light from the setting sun streaming through the windows, and a small white kitten frozen warily in the middle of the floor. 
Lily reaches out a hand, making quiet little tsking noises with her tongue, but you step right over her and gather the kitten in your arms. 
“Hi there,” you say. “Is it you making ruckus every night?” 
Lily laughs, rising from her crouch to come stand by your shoulder. “It’s so unfair how they always come to you,” she complains fondly. “I try so hard.” 
You hum noncommittally. It’s true, animals love you. You scratch the side of the kitten’s face, smiling when it purrs. 
Your girlfriend smiles too. “So you’re our ghost, hm?” she coos, stroking a knuckle down its belly. “Sorry you didn’t get your chance to make friends with someone from the afterlife, sweetheart.” 
“That’s alright,” you say. “This may be more rewarding anyway. You can’t pet ghosts.” 
Lily laughs, dropping a kiss on your shoulder. “No, I don’t suppose you can. Do you want to keep her?” 
You look at her in surprise. “Could we? Michael wouldn’t be happy.” 
She shrugs a shoulder, green eyes flashing with challenge. “There are some things worth incurring Michael’s wrath, I think.” 
You beam, looking down at the nearly sleeping kitten cradled in your arm. “Yeah.” 
“Come on.” Lily gives you a nudge, starting back out into the hall. “Our dinner’s going to burn, and I think we have tuna in the pantry to hold this one over until we can get to the store.”
“Can we name her Ghost?” you ask, following her out. 
“Oh, I don’t think we have a choice.”

౨ৎ an eternity of love (james potter x reader)
summary: what if the marauders survived and starting their own families. james and you were expecting a baby, and james had a little surprise that you had only dreamed of.
pairing(s): james potter x reader, james potter x sirius black (platonic), remus lupin x james (platonic), lily evans x reader (platonic) marlene mckinnon x reader (platonic)
i loved writing this!!! it was so fun, and don’t forget to request any scenarios or imagines here!
Starting a family was a dream that you and james had always discussed about wanting, yearning to have your very own one day. Even from the first year of your relationship it was a big goal you always hoped you and james would reach, and when it came to graduating school and hitting your three year mark together it only seemed right.
Not to mention the war that had also happened during that time period, that you and the order had barely won. And after the near loss, it only made you and james even more desperate for a family and a promised forever together.
So naturally when you had fallen pregnant, and expecting in the late months of the year it was like everything was going right for once. After living a rough last few years of being a young adult, being graced with a baby that you two always dreamed of was a unsaid miracle.
It was a step closer to what the two of you had hoped for when you left Hogwarts.
“I think you should wear this one.” lily and marlene had attempted to persuade you for the past hour. they both suggested a white floral printed dress that accentuated your baby bump and had been persistent that it was the one you should wear on your date with james that day.
“That way it’s like a first date out with baby.” lily commented, smiling crazily at her confused friend. Marlene only enthusiastically nodded her head at the redhead’s words, also glancing at the clock on the wall.
You hummed and bit your lip, moving around in the mirror at the stunning dress that the girls had helped you pick out and buy a few mere months ago. “Okay, the dress is gorgeous, i agree.” You nodded, turning back around to the squealing girls.
“Shoe time? We need to hurry, we don’t want to make you late.” Marlene explained, moving around the many clothes on the floor, to the wardrobe. “And, James wanted me to give you these.” She added, digging out a pink box containing the most beautiful shoes you had ever seen.
You audibly gasped, taking the shoes from the box and sitting down to eagerly put them on. “These are stunning.” You gaped, admiring the silk bow detailing.
Lily passed you your simple white handbag, and then ushered you through the door of your bedroom to down the stairs in the hallway.
Standing at the front door was a handsome but anxious James, holding a bouquet of your favourite flowers and an adoring cheeky grin on his face. “Darling, you look — woah.” He started, eyes tracing mindlessly over every little detail and beauty of you.
Your cheeks flushed and your eyes averted to James’ outfit too. A white buttoned down t-shirt with the sleeves rolled effortlessly up his toned arms, broad chest and muscular arms flexing out anywhere they could. He also had black some-what smart trousers on, hugging his bulky thighs that you adored. “So do you, handsome.” You smirked, eyes finding his again.
He brought his arm out to bring you closer to him, your arms naturally finding its way around his back as he rubbed circles into your shoulders. Lily had gracefully taken the flowers off of him, presumably going to place them into a fresh vase of water. Marlene admired the two of you, sending a wink James’ way as he mouthed a grateful thank you to her.
“We better get going, love.” He reminded you, as he glanced over at the watch on his wrist. Which had always never worked, as he couldn’t be bothered to fix it, always saying that there wasn’t ever anything important to be worried of being late to. But from today, he seemed to have a fully functional watch.
You stepped out of your random thoughts and back into reality and your gorgeous boyfriend that stood in front of you. As you nodded, he interlocked his hand with yours, walking out of Lily’s house and to his car on the driveway.
“Have fun, you two!” Marlene practically screamed, partly-hiding a stressed lily who was putting her shoes on with her special camera laid next to her on the stairs step. You barely had time to think or question as you approached the passenger door to his car, saying your own goodbyes, sitting comfortably in the front.
James had promised that today’s date was a complete surprise and that you weren’t allowed any hints of what was to come, which made the night even more special and exciting. Apart from the dress code of a lovely dress, thats all he had given you. Despite his want to spill and tell you everything like he somehow usually always did.
After a twenty minute car ride you seemed to have arrived, partly finding the location familiar but not completely certain whilst being bombarded with the emotion of excitement. Every date or even normal typical day with James was like this. Filled with love and excitement.
“Sweetheart, be careful as we walk around here.” James lovingly warned you as you two approached the sand. Wisely, you had stopped to unbuckle your heels to hold instead of attempting to walk on the sand with uncomfortable shoes.
As you took in your surroundings, the remembrance found its way to you and thats when you recalled the time you and james had came to this exact beach with your friends after spending a weekend at lily’s house in summer. It was the very day you and him had first said i love you to each other, the day you knew he was it for you and the day he knew you were his forever.
“I remember this beach.” You choked out as the two of you strolled along the sand to the crashing of the waves and the beautiful orangey sunset in the horizon. The two of you stopped, James dropping your hand as he fumbled around in his trousers pocket. You looked around and swore you saw the figures of your friends in the bushes. And thats when you knew.
“James.” Your voice cracked, looking back at your boyfriend who was now on one knee holding out a velvet box with a shimmering stone ring in it. Tears immediately formed and streamed down your face as your hands attempted to wipe them away.
“Y/n Y/l/n. You are the best thing to undoubtedly ever happen to me, and i will never forget the day that a Ravenclaw strutted up to me and my friends and scolded us for bumping into her friend in the hallway and i asked her if a date in Hogesmeade would make up for it,” He chuckled as you let out a laugh and a load more of tears, “because if i didn’t, i wouldn’t be here now, begging on my knees for you to marry me and officially become Mrs Potter,” he continued, taking the ring out of the box, “So please, y/n/n, darling, the love of my life, would you do me the honours of becoming my wife?” He asked, head tilting as his curls moved into his face.
Your head immediately nodded before you could even get a word out. “Yes! Yes!” You exclaimed as James grinned, delicately placing the ring on your finger. Cheers and Whoops sounded around you, but you didn’t bother to look as James got up and instantly brought you up into a warming hug, childishly spinning you around by your waist and peppering kisses all over your tear-stained face.
“I love you so much sweetheart, and i always will.” He breathed out in between all the mayhem, looking longingly into your glass-coated eyes.
“And i love you too Jamie, forever and whatever comes after that.” You grinned, pressing a passionate kiss to his cheek as his hands found its way to your baby bump.

fake dating trope with lily ♡
guys just won't leave her alone, especially james potter and she absolutely hates it. you're acquaintances and friends at a push, you share a lot of classes and have since your first year. last year you were paired up together for potions and you were both surprised at how easy it was to work together.
lily felt like she needed to get james off her back, marlene suggested it and her mind immediately went to you. she knows you like girls and you work well together but she doesn't know if you'd agree or even how she'd go about asking. she knows you're single because she's heard you complain about how mulciber asked you out for the second time in a year.
she psychs herself up, she could do, she's a gryffindor for goodness sake. she just needs to mention it to you and say how beneficial it will be for you both. she didn't expect you to agree straight away but you weren't going to miss this opportunity, spending more time with your crush, plus getting mulciber to leave you alone and to see james potter's face when he sees you two together, yeah you weren't going to pass this up.
what lily didn't expect was for you to talk to her everyday and sit next to her for every meal, you made her smile everyday, she was starting to forget this was suppose to be fake. you studied together and spent time relaxing together. you were kind and sweet and were so thoughtful. you made her feel special.
james didn't realise you were dating, he had blinkers on. those blinkers really pissed you off, especially when he pushed his way between you and lily and turned to you. "hey, you're not dating anyone right? i think you and remus would be really good together, we could even all go out together, you and remus and me and lily." your eyes narrowed and you nearly slapped him in the face, the audacity of this man, no wonder why lily complains about him.
"the only way we'd go out together is if you and remus started dating." lily replies, you don't see her because james is in the way but her arms are crossed and she just wants to be sitting next to you again.
"what are you talking about lily?" james asks and looks at her with a huge grin on his face.
you don't like how he's looking at lily, you hate it. "back off from my girlfriend potter!" you snap at him. james freezes and awkwardly chuckles, he didn't get the joke, you two were just friends, right? "jesus potter, are you blind. stop going after a girl who's taken and way out of your league." lily cheeks go as red as her hair and she softly smiles. james looks at you both dumbfounded.
"hello ladies," sirius comes up to you and claps his hands on james' shoulder after hearing the entire conversation, "lets go prongs." they leave and both you and lily move closer together.
lily's psyching herself up yet again, she's fallen for you but she's a gryffindor and she's not going to stand by and keep pretending what she feels for you is fake, not when there's a chance you feel the same. the way you snapped at james sounded so real. "can i kiss you?"
you quickly look up at lily to see her looking at you, you're making eye contact and it's making you feel warm inside. a smile creeps up on your face, "yeah," you say quietly and breathlessly.
"good," lily smiles back at you sweetly and holds the side of your neck gently and loosely. she moves towards you closer and pulls you towards her and you both smile against each others lips.

Stoner rem or Lilly mixing your roll with lavender and other herbs to help with your insomnia <33
today is multiverse monday! send me any au you can think of :)
--
You feel sleepy all of a sudden. Not bad sleepy, not scary, chest-tightening, breath-taking sleepy, but calm, sweet, drowsy sleepy. Your head lands on Lily's shoulder as you exhale a puff of smoke, involuntarily so as it slips out in a yawn.
"Tired, dove?" Remus chuckles warmly, his own blunt perched between his lips.
"M-hm," You nod, your cheek rubbing against the corduroy strap of Lily's overalls, "What are you putting in this weed?"
"Lavender." Lily informs you, and your brows furrow at her serious answer to your joke, "And other herbs. All safe, sweetheart." Her hand comes up to caress your cheek, skin smooth and soft, "I heard you tossing and turning last night."
"And your eyes are baggy," Remus nods, "Lily said that would work."
"It did," You groan, passing your joint off to Lily to snuff out, favoring instead to rub your face against her shoulder, pressing at your aching eyes as you get comfortable, "I hope you're strong, because you're going to have to carry me to bed."
"I can do it," Remus smiles, and it's the last thing you see before you let your eyes drift shut, "Sweet dreams, dovey."

Princess (Lily Evans x reader)
Warnings: smut, oral, fingering, swearing
Summary: People like to assume things about y/n and Lily’s relationship which causes Lily to feel disrespected.
Tumblr media
People always loved to assume things about you and Lily, your own friends didn’t get your relationship. People perceived Lily to be soft, innocent, beautiful and quite conservative because she’s smart. Whereas you’re perceived to be outspoken, vulgar and confident often mistaken for being dominant.
You and Lily cuddle up on the couch in the common room smiling and kissing happily. “It’s weird, isn’t it?” Sirius says aloud “Yes, it’s unusual” James agrees. The four boys observe you and Lily in the almost empty common room.
“Don’t be jealous, James” you smirk and he scoffs “Jealous? I’m not jealous of you” “All of you are, that must be why you’re all so interested in our relationship.”
“No way, don’t put words in my mouth” Sirius defends himself “We just don’t get it” Remus explains. “There’s not much to get, we love each other” Lily says “Do you ever have sex?” Sirius teases “Shut up Sirius.”
“There’s no way, Lily is too innocent for that” James chimes in. “No, you’ve got it wrong, Lily is a pillow princess” Sirius says “That is so rude” Lily sits up “I guess you’ll never know” you say walking away.
Lily was angered by Sirius’ comments, you follow her to your shared dorm room. “Pillow Princess? Me? I’m not even a bottom!” she exclaims “He is just teasing, you know he likes to get me upset, it’s a joke. I’ll make sure to tell him he went too far.”
Lily angrily paces up and down the length of the dorm room “Get undressed” she demands “Why?” “Dont question me, I’m not in a playful mood.”
You start to get out of your uniform until you’re completely naked “bed” she says, you get onto the bed hugging your knees. Lily mutters to herself continuing to pace up and down forgetting you’re naked and ready for her on the bed. “Pillow princess” she mutters along with cursing Sirius.
“Darling” you say carefully “I’m not a pillow princess, I treat my love with the best orgasms, I love eating your pussy” she says angrily. “I know, you’re so good at making me cum” you encourage her slightly anxious about her behaviour.
“I can’t wait to see your pretty pussy, I bet you’re already wet, you’re always wet for me” you nod as she approaches you. “Lay down, spread your legs” she says unbuttoning her school shirt leaving it open.
Half of you wants to thank Sirius for getting your girlfriend riled up and the other half wants to hate him for insulting her.
Lily kisses your inner thighs as you squirm. She presses her lips to your clit, you feel the pressure. She licks up and down your cunt tasting you and moaning against your clit.
“So good Lil” you moan letting your fingers tangle in her hair.
Her fingers slip inside you making your eyes roll back and your back arch. “That’s it” she says gently, rubbing your inner thigh.
“I’m close” you warn “I know, let it go.”
You screw your eyes shut and breathe out as you finish. Lily’s fingers don’t stop until you’ve completed your orgasm. She licks her fingers and places a kiss on your forehead.

Roses- L.E
Plus sized Lily Evans x Fem!Reader
Eating Lily Evans out
Warnings: Smut, Oral sex female recieving, slight exhibitionism, sort of d/s themes, praising, fingering
Hope you enjoy it, smut under the cut
"You are so good for this, oh my god." Lily moaned, her grip tightening in your hair, pulling you closer, enveloping your head with her plush thighs.  You moaned, lifting your head just a bit to respond to her.  It was the best part of your day, whenever Lily Evans decided that she wanted your tongue on her cunt.
"Thank you."  You sighed, ducking back down, licking and sucking her clit into your mouth as you slipped two fingers inside of her, curling.  She let out a low groan of approval.
"I'm gonna take you out for such a nice dinner after this baby.  Just keep going."  She said, and you whimpered, looking up.  You wanted nothing more than to run your fingers over the plush, soft skin of her stomach, but you couldn't ignore the throbbing ache between your own thighs.  You reached down and rubbed at your clit, moaning against her cunt as you felt some relief.  Lily must have noticed because she sat up on her elbow, pulling you up by your hair.  The way that her stomach creased drove you mad, making you strain to bury your face once again, but instead she fully sat up, gripping under your chin with a smirk.
"Don't baby.  You can't touch what's mine, you know the rules on that."  Lily said, her voice coming out dangerously sweet, making your heart race as you pouted.  You wanted to feel good... or to make yourself feel even better, why wouldn't she let you?
"But-."  She shook her head, pulling you up enough to give her a lingering kiss before pushing you back down.
"No, you have to-."
"Evans?  Are you in here?"  You both froze at the sound of Marlene's voice, not to far from Lily's bedroom.  She didn't know about the two of you... or if she did she hadn't ever asked about it... Lily took a deep breath and pulled her comforter over you and up to her chest, using the hand buried in your hair to push you back between her thighs.
"Shit... Keep going baby, just keep quiet, okay?"  She asked, and you paused for a moment.  What if Marlene found out?  She was perceptive enough, it wouldn't take much to piece two and two together if something went awry.
"But-."  She pushed your head again, her intention and decision clear.  There was no fighting her on this.
"I said keep going, are we clear?  And if you stop, you'll live to regret it, I promise." She said, her tone not displaying the danger in her words, but you knew it was true.  You looped your arms around her legs again, settling down in front of her, licking your lips.  You already knew she was drenched, and your mouth watered at the idea of getting back to what you were best at.
"... Yes ma'am."  You murmured, and you dove back in, moaning at the wetness.  It was ten times more intense like this, only existing in a world that was Lily's cunt, her smell, her skin.  It made you quiver, made you feel all the more helpless as she used you for her own pleasure.
"Right here!"  Lily called, and you were in awe of how level her voice was... normally Lily was so vocal, moaning and praising and it was evident in her tone what was happening... but she managed to hide it quite well as Marlene cracked her door open.
"Someone sent you roses, I just thought you should know.  Left them in the living room with their intials on the card.  Have you seen Y/N?  I think they're from her."  She said, and you sighed against Lily's cunt, making her cough to cover it up.  They were from her, they were the whole reason you were lucky enough to actively be having your head crushed between her thighs right now.  Her breathing was getting more unsteady.
"Oh.  That's so cute...  She's so nice, I hope it is."  She said, her voice betraying her on the last word.  You smirked to yourself and doubled down, part of you absolutely intent on making her break in front of someone.  You wanted to know how she would punish you afterwards, it would be fun.
"Are you alright?  You look like you're going to sick up."  Marlene said, and you nearly laughed, but Lily squeezed your head a little harder with her thighs, a sort of warning.  A very welcome one, you wanted nothing more than to have her crush you to death, and you'd told her as much more than once before.
"I'm fine... just fine..."  Lily said, her mumbling seeming a bit listless as she carefully ground her hips on your mouth, hopefully not being obvious.  She was silent for too long, you knew that, lost in seeking out her own pleasure.
"Lily!"  Marlene snapped, seeming to bring her back to reality as you sucked hard on her clit, making her bite back a moan as you slid in another finger to join the first two.  She let out a breath before clearing her throat.
"Could you grab me some water?  I... I need some."  She said, her voice betraying her more and more with each moment.  Your thrusts became harder, faster, and you sucked on her clit with more urgency, wanting her to cum on your face.
"Uh... Yeah.  Yeah, sure."  She said, and the door shut behind her not a moment later.  Lily threw the comforter off of your head, looking down at you with a heaving chest and pinkened cheeks.  She looked better than any artwork you'd ever seen in a museum.  She threw her head back and all you could see were her stomach and her tits, her body trembling.  You gripped onto her hip with your free hand, letting your fingers sink into the flesh
"Now, baby... I'm cumming now."  She gasped, closing her thighs tight around your head to keep you there, not that you could imagine a place in the world where you would rather be in that moment.
"Good girl... Good girl... God, so good."  She whined, and you kept thrusting your fingers, forcing her into a second orgasm as she shook against the mattress, digging her heels into your back, and when she finally released you, she looked wrecked.  Wrecked, but happy as she drew you up to her, pulling you into a tight hug.
"You, my dear, are so good at that.  You're so good for me, aren't you?"  She murmured, and you nodded, tucking your face against her neck, purposefully throwing a leg over her so that she would feel the wetness between your thighs.  After a moment she let out a quiet moan and reached over, running her fingers over your cunt.
"Yes ma'am.  All for you."  You whimpered, and Lily sat up, a sharklike grin on her face as she hovered above you.  She looked so hot like this, it was almost enough to make you cum untouched.
"I think you've deserved a bit of a reward, haven't you?"  She asked, and you nodded frantically, wanting anything that she was willing to give you.
"Please."  You begged, and she smiled, leaning down to press a kiss to your lips as she sat up, pushing herself off the bed.
"Wait here.  I'll be right back."  She insisted, and you watched her walk over to the dresser and dig through the drawer until she found her strap and harness, making you swallow heavily.  Fuck, you wouldn't be walking tomorrow.

lily evans x fem!reader
type: fluff
summary: you, a slytherin prefect and quidditch player, and lily evans, gryffindor’s golden girl, have seemed to find yourselves in a strange and lovely situation
word count: 1.1k
notes: completely self indulgent. also sorry if this feels short.
marauders masterlist
✩ ✩ ✩
You couldn’t have imagined in a million years that you would’ve Lily Evan’s type.
You, the loud mouth, aggressive, quidditch playing prefect whom she never seemed all too thrilled to do night rounds with. You, the avid defender of all the younger Slytherin students which usually led to you getting into regular spats with the marauders when their pranks hit more than Death Eaters. You, the one who had a notoriously bad break up with one of her best friends (let’s be real though, how many queer girls at Hogwarts hadn’t had a bad break up with Marlene Mckinnon at some point?).
You, the girl.
All of these things didn’t stop her however from snogging in a random broom closet every Tuesday and Thursday night when the two of you were assigned patrols.
You weren’t exactly sure how the little affair started, but you were sure you didn’t want it to stop.
You were suddenly hyperaware of her at all times- how you stared a little too long in the dining hall and in lessons, how she stood a little too close in prefect meetings, how she now sat in the front row of the Gryffindor section at quidditch games. It was like you were both making a game of how far you could push the limits of a secret affair.
“What’s got you all dazy?” Pandora had asked you one Saturday morning in the Great Hall. She sat directly across from you, reading the new edition of the Quibbler as she ate her toast. It was the third Saturday of the month, meaning the Gryffindor’s would be out on the quidditch pitch for the next hour before it was the Slytherin’s turn to practice. In that time, you were hoping to somehow steal Lily away- at least for a little while- while a good portion of her friend group was busy. The only issue was that she hadn’t walked in yet.
“Nothing,” you said, snapping your head back to your friends. You picked up a spoon full of cereal and quickly shoved it into your mouth. “Just thinking about what we need to work on at practice today.”
“Good to know someone’s finally got their head back in the game,” Lucinda boredly chimed in from beside you. “I was getting worried.”
“For the last time, Lu, the only thing that distracted me at the last game was that bloody bludger nearly taking my head off right,” you said, dropping your spoon into your bowl of now soggy cereal. “I swear to Godric the next time I see Sirius Black I’m gonna-”
Someone behind you cleared their throat.
You spun around in your seat, the conversations near you at the table falling silently. Lily Evans making an appearance at the Slytherin table wasn’t an everyday occurrence, you know.
“Hi,” was all you managed to stutter out, hoping it didn’t come off too forced as your cheeks warmed.
“Hi,” Lily smirked, watching you get all flustered in front of her. “Sorry to interrupt, Filch requested us to meet him in his office to discuss something that happened last night.”
Your blood went cold. What had happened last night was you and Lily snogging in an empty corridor for the better part of an hour.
“Oh, alright,” you said, your cheeks once again heating up. “I’ll- I’ll be back in a minute,” you told your friends, hoping your awkwardness wouldn’t make them suspicious of anything.
“You better be on the pitch by 9:30!” Lucinda shouted after you as you and Lily exited the Great Hall.
You rung your hands out in front of you as you followed Lily through the school. He couldn’t have seen you two, right? Surely one of you would have noticed. You weren’t exactly sure what you would do if you had been caught. I mean, what could you do? You’d surely be stripped of your prefect titles and, Merlin, the rumors would be something awful.
“Lily,” you said, breaking the silence of the hall, your mouth dry. She glanced at you before once again looking forward as you passed a group of third years. “What exactly did Filch want-“
Without giving you any warning, she gripped the sleeve of your robe and pulled you with her into an empty classroom. She forcefully pushed her lips onto yours- the taste of her now familiar chapstick making butterflies in your stomach. You leaned back onto the wall she pushed you to, letting the back of your head rest against it as she wrapped her arms around your neck. There was a charm about her that made you completely forget what you had been worrying about just moments before- your full attention now on the girl in front of you.
“Lils,” you laughed lightly as she pressed kisses down your jaw. “I’m assuming there's no Filch?”
“Well, aren’t you clever,” she smiled, pulling back for a moment to look at you. She pecked your lips again. “Sorry to worry you, I just needed to get you away from your friends.” You couldn’t help your cheeks warming again. There was something about this girl that turned you to straight mush.
“Getting bold, are we?” you asked, tucking some of her fiery red hair behind her ear. “Bloody Gryffindors,” you joked.
“Hmm, see I think you’re rubbing off on me,” she said, pursing her lips to hide her smile. “After that little show I put on for your friends back there, I’m starting to think the hat made some sort of mistake.” You couldn’t help the snort that came out as you laughed at the idea of her in Slytherin.
“Yeah, and I should’ve been in Hufflepuff,” you said sarcastically. “You know, with how patient and just I am.” She laughed again, crinkling her nose as she closed her eyes.
“Oh, very patient,” she said. “It’s your best trait, really.”
“What can I say- I’m a lot of things,” you started, letting your head lull back against the wall, “Patient, resourceful, intelligent, humble. I can’t be confined by the restraints that are what we call Hogwarts houses.” Lily hid her face in your shoulder this time as she laughed. You laughed too, wrapping your arms around her and simply holding her for a moment.
You thought about your friends and if they saw you now. You thought about her friends and what they wouldn’t do if they saw you now. A bloody protective bunch, the marauders and co. were. You couldn’t even bring yourself to care what any of them would say. Not even Sirius Black could hex off the smile that had seemed to take permanent residence on your face when she was around.
It was something truly special, you two had, and it was yours.

I think I like you (I hope you do too)
Lily Evans x Fem!Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
a/n: first fic!!! pls be kind :) the title is from your text by sundial.
c/w: die joke, swearing. (lmk if i missed something)
You stared at the man with undisguised incredulity. “800 pounds? Are you kidding me? I thought we agreed on 500?” Trevor - or perhaps Troy rolled his eyes at you derisively. He probably thought he was being subtle - that stupid prick.
“It's just how it is, Miss. Moving stuff inside the 'ouse? Well, that's gonna cost you a bit extra, innit? Wouldn't want you gettin' in over your 'ead now, would we?" he jeered at you. His twin, Trevor, you identified from his tag, snickered stupidly at that. The universe was really testing your patience today. 
"Seriously? It would've been decent to tell me upfront that moving stuff indoors meant extra charges. This is ridiculous." Trevor turned to you then, all six feet of him tensed and towering over you. "Miss, it ain't on us. You got a problem with it, you take it up with the higher ups. Give us our dosh, we've got other bits to be getting on with." With a sigh you handed over the cash, regretting the choice of passing on your friends’ offers to help you with the move. 
With another sigh, you turned back to the big mess in front of you, your hands resting on your hips, visibly expressing the exhaustion you were already feeling. This had seemed like such an exciting idea at first, having your own space all to yourself. The independence and freedom that you had anticipated was certainly there and you were definitely feeling it now. Having to arrange all this furniture by yourself …… very exciting. 
You let out a third sigh and felt the weariness seep into your bones. This was going to be a very long day. You took a step toward the covered couch - ready to begin settling into this new place, which would hopefully become your home. 
Suddenly, you were ambushed by a lasso which was thrown at your legs with murderous intent. The lasso then purred and you died ….. due to the lasso’s cuteness. “Hello, kitty! Oh, you’re so precious”, you cooed. The cat (not lasso) meowed up at you, rubbing against your shins. “What’s your name, buddy?” you murmured softly, picking it up and settling it in your arms. The only response you received was another meow, and a curious paw on your face. Noticing your open door, you walked towards it, all the while, gently scratching the cat behind its ears. “You seem like such a distinguished member of the society. Oh, is that where you came from?” you wondered to yourself, noticing another open door down the hallway. “And you’re my new neighbour too, it’s so sweet of you to welcome me like that, kitty.” you giggled, shutting your door carefully.  “Let's get you back to your owner, shall we?” You walked up to the threshold of your neighbour’s house and knocked on the open door. 
Just then, ‘Kitty’, as you had begun to call the cat in your head, jumped down from your arms and ran inside — towards the kitchen, you assumed. Standing on your neighbour’s doorstep awkwardly with no apparent reason was definitely not on your agenda for the day but before you could say or do anything, a figure emerged from said kitchen, you assumed again. Following that, your heart skipped around five or at least two beats. 
Standing in front of you was probably the most gorgeous woman you had ever seen. Her red curls were tied up in a top bun and there was a smudge of flour across her left cheek. And she was saying something — to you. “— hall?” She asked, with a curious gaze fixed on you. 
“Huh? Sorry — I didn’t hear that, I was - I was thinking something else, sorry” you felt heat rise to your cheeks.
 At this, a teasing smile spread on her lips. She replied with a playful lilt to her tone "I said, I hope Crookshanks didn't give you any grief, darlin', and I was wonderin' if you're the new neighbour down the hall." 
“Oh yes, I am.’’ you replied hurriedly. “I’m in 403. Which you probably already know, cus' of all the noise.” Then you registered her previous statement. “Oh, wait — his name is Crookshanks? That’s such a cute name! How old is he?” 
“He’s four!” she replied eagerly. “He’s Himalayan. And I’m Lily Evans. What’s your name, love?” she asked, walking up to you. 
It was so hard not to stare at her — she was radiant, and you realised with a start that your palms were sweaty as hell. Quickly wiping them on the back of your thighs, you extended your right hand forward as you told her your name — mostly so that you would have something to do with them, but also because she was just so pretty. Although you didn’t want to be a creep, her hands looked so soft. You realised too late that they also looked dusty. The apologetic smile on her face just made you want to cringe even more. 
"I'm terribly sorry. I was actually just whipping up some cookie dough for your welcome biscuits. Seems I've spoiled the surprise, haven't I? But I do hope you're rather fond of chocolate chip! It's one of my specialties, you know." she winked. 
In your opinion, if you fainted, at that moment, it would be completely valid. The little nicknames, the supposed flirting (you hoped), and that wink? It was a surprise you were still standing straight. It took you a few seconds to find your voice again. “Oh, you didn’t have to, you know? But also thanks a lot. Crookshanks and his owner both definitely know how to give a warm welcome.” That was brave. And also slightly lame, in your opinion. But it seemed to have its desired effect or so you thought, judging by the slight twinkle in Lily’s eyes. Her body language shifted. She leaned in a bit closer and hummed playfully. "Looks like I owe thanks to my mate for leaving the door ajar as he left. Annoying as bloody hell, but it seems to have finally come in handy." 
You quirked a smile at that, hoping her close proximity didn’t mean she could feel the heat emanating off of your face. “Looks like you do, I guess. Anyway, I should get going. I’ve still got a shit ton of stuff to do and not enough time. I’ll see you — and Crookshanks, later though?” Judging by the way her smile seemed to soften around the edges, she definitely caught the hopeful tone at the end of your sentence. “Yes, you will. Fancy joining me for dinner tonight? I'm not exactly a master chef, but I reckon the gas ain't sorted yet at your place, love.” this time, her tone was quieter and she was looking directly into your eyes with a small smile. You shifted your weight to the other leg and looked to the floor, considering it. Was this a date? You desperately wanted it to be, but what if something went wrong? Then you would have to live next to her with that and it would be awkward as hell. Looking back up at her, you saw that she was waiting patiently for you to respond, and you decided to give it a shot. What will happen, will happen, right? 
“Sure.” you replied, hoping your voice didn’t betray the conflict you had felt. “I’d love that.” She smiled brightly and clapped her hands together, leading to a small cloud of flour enveloping the both of you. At that she grinned sheepishly and whispered “Sorry.” Guess you weren’t the only nervous one, after all."I'll see you after you're done with work, love. Just give me a shout, yeah? I’ll be waitin’." 
And with that, you left for your own flat, and the big mess that awaited you. You knew the nerves of the date — was it? — would power you to get through a majority of the work. A giddy smile on your face, you began with the Herculean tasks.
And if the exhaustion of the day seemed like a good excuse to sit a bit too close to each other on Lily’s couch while watching Brooklyn Nine-Nine after eating slightly overcooked pasta, who were you to object to that?

i hope you enjoyed it! leave a comment :) special thanks to @mxssingmemories for being an absolute angel 💖

"Regulus has the more gorgeous curls ever!" AND YOU WANNA KNOW WHY
becsuse.
for the longest time he just left his hair slicked back or combed over. (yes im pushing my choir boy reg agenda WHAT ABT IT) like he didnt even know he had curls till he was too lazy to comb it over one lazy morning and all of a sudden his head was a frizzy curled mess. (picture a horrible perm) he didnt even know until a slytherin first year who was jumping through hoops for his favor offered to teach him a bird repelling spell. after asking why, he was horrified and the first year apologized.
He tried potions and spells and chants and stones yet nothing seemed to help calm his hair... and he couldn't very well ask Sirius for help since his hair was much less coiled than Regulus's. After about a month of tireless effect (anger filled quidditch practices when he cursed every great wizard for keeping the one muggle custom of hating anything that isn't straight) he finally caved and called in reinforcements.
You know where I'm going with this, right?
HE CALLED LILY, JAMES AND REMUS!
Listening carefully, while James nodded without actually listening (occasionally saying things like 'mhm mhm yes sir you make a fine point.' to impress or bother lily enough that she'll like him ...she'll never admit it but she giggled a little internally) operation make 'regulus handsome again!' was forced in motion.
James tried a natural salve that his dad made that 'enhanced your roots and made your strands shine!' It sort of worked, except they found out that Regulus is allergic to unicorn horn dust and sapflowers.
Lily tried massaging oils that she'd seen her mom use occasionally (and Mrs Evans had the prettiest curls ever!) but it weighed down the strands too much since she applied enough for three people so regulus kind of just looked like Snape. (After regulus saw his reflection, he looked like he'd braved a fight with a dementor)
Remus, who'd been the last one to try anything, and who did the least for his curls (yet they still looking impeccable! fking lupin genes 😒) decided to lend Regulus some of his self made soaps and conditioners that never really worked for him. Regulus did, reluctantly, and found that the frizz was almost gone, and that it smelled very reminiscent of citrus and eucalyptus. In fact, they looked so good that not only did lily ask for the recipe and James berated Remus for never hooking him up with his idiotic talent for accidentally making things that work wonderfully, he was able to convince his mother to left him open his own gringotts vault (of which he planned to use to finally rid his surroundings of those horrid walls of horrid memories.) the end!!!!!! Idk when I wanted this to go but it went somewhere I think

Hihi!! I’m brand new here but I love your writing already!! I was wondering if you could write something for James, Remus, or Lily (you can pick!) with a reader who’s absolutely terrified of throwing up and they help her through it when it actually happens? Sorry if it’s worded weirdly or doesn’t make sense 😭😭
Thank you for requesting lovely!
cw: nausea, mention of vomit, reader has hair long enough for a ponytail
Lily Evans x fem!reader ♡ 616 words
“Sweetheart,” Lily’s perfume fills your lungs with every deep breath you take, sweet and vaguely floral. Grounding. Her hand coasts gently up and down your spine, “you’re only drawing it out.” 
Tears bite at the backs of your eyes, because you know. It’s inevitable, when the first wave has already passed but the nausea hasn’t, that there’s going to be more. And your girlfriend, despite her best intentions, is being so supremely unhelpful by telling you so. 
Which isn’t her fault, you know. You certainly don’t want her to go away, you’re just frustrated and panicky and a bit despairing in your hopelessness. It’s easy to be angry with her, when the true villain is formless.
“I can’t make myself do it,” you choke out, and you have to press your lips together hard right after, swallowing. 
“You don’t have to do anything,” Lily promises. She keeps her voice soft and soothing, a caress to your sensitive nerves. A piece of hair falls into your face, and she tucks it back in with the rest, confined to a ponytail at the back of your head. You focus on the gentle scrape of her nails over your scalp. “Just relax, yeah? Let your body do what it needs to.” 
You scrunch your face as another wave of nausea roils through you, squeezing a tear out of one eye. Lily coos and ducks down to kiss it away. Her lips are soft against your cheek, unconcerned with your clammy skin or how awful you know your breath must be, and you’re treated to a sight of her pretty green eyes as she stays crouched beside you. They’re kind, worried. 
“I know you’re nervous,” she says, “but that wasn’t so bad a few minutes ago, was it?” 
“I didn’t love it,” you admit, and she smiles. It’s distractingly lovely. You forget your breathing for a moment, reminded when bile pushes cruelly at the base of your throat. Lily’s expression creases like she can tell. 
“You’ll be so happy once it’s done, pretty girl. So long as you sit here thinking about it it’s still happening, but when it’s over, it’s over.” 
You think to make a reply, something along the lines of I know but that doesn’t make it easier, when your body overrules you. Lily starts rubbing your back again as you cough and gasp, tears slipping off your nose and into the toilet bowl. 
“You’re alright, baby,” she says, sweet-toned and sure. “I’ve got you.” 
You pant like a child as you spit the last of it out, and Lily reaches for the cup of water you’d set aside earlier, passing it to you. You swish and spit into the toilet. You lean back into her, and she receives you happily, adjusting so that you’re partially in her lap and brushing your ponytail to the side. She blows cool air on your nape, making you sigh. 
“You’re so weird,” she says at your reaction, the smile euphonious in her voice. “Do you feel better this time?” 
“I think so,” you answer fretfully. 
Lily combats your anxiety with sureness. “I had a feeling you would.” She brushes a kiss against the shell of your ear. “I know that wasn’t easy, sweetheart. Do you want some of your ice cream as a reward?” 
You groan. “I don’t want to eat anything ever again.” 
“Fair enough,” she laughs. “How about a shower then?” 
You tilt your head back, batting your eyelashes at her. “Will you come with me?” 
Lily clearly makes an effort to keep her smile at bay, but it shows itself in the happy squint of her eyes. “If you ask me nicely, I’ll do anything you like.”

You were happy the day was over and you could go home to your loves; James Potter and Lily Evans. The three of you have a beautiful and loving relationship between the three of you.
You messaged the group chat the three of you had set up to let them know you were on your way home.
You received a message just after you got in the car. After getting yourself sorted, you opened your phone. It was a message from Lily: ‘I’m waiting for both of you at home.’
Just after you finished reading that message, another came in, this time from James: ‘Just got home. Looking forward to spending time with my loves.’
You smiled and knowing they were waiting at home, you drove in that direction.
When you arrived home, you walked in to hear James and Lily talking in the kitchen. You closed the door, realising that other than their voices, the house was relatively quiet.
You followed their voices, finding them in the kitchen with Lily having cooked an amazing smelling meal. You announced your presence and James kissed you before telling you both to sit at the table and he would serve the food.
The three of you talked about your days as you all enjoyed the meal.
When you finished, the three of you moved to the living room. With the fireplace lit, all three of you sat down, but you lay your head on James’ lap. You enjoyed hearing them talk and James running his fingers through your hair. In fact, it was so calming that you fell asleep like that.

"I'm still mad at you"
Lily Evans x f!Reader
Summary: Lily heals your hand after you punch someone who insulted her.
Word count: 1.1k
Warnings: kissing, swearing, punching
A/N: Lily deserves more fanfics, i love her.
Tumblr media
You were going to ignore him, you just focused on your friends waiting for you at the end of the hall and ignored Lucius' comments. Except when he mentioned Lily, you don’t know if he insulted her or what, but the thought of her name in his mouth just made you sick.
So you did what you had to do, making a sign to your friends so they’d know you had to do something. And then you turned back to the wall Lucius was leaning on, surrounded by his friends. You didn’t even know what your plan was, you just had to do something. Luckily, Lucius helped you when he opened his mouth.
“What? You don’t have that pathetic mudblood friend to help you? I think it was Lily or something like that, wasn’t it?” They all laughed, so did you, before punching him right in the nose. Bellatrix quickly stepped in front of Lucius, who was groaning while holding his nose. You saw how all your friends were walking to get you before you did anything else.
“What? Isn’t it pathetic that some pathetic girl just punched you?” Then you walked away, meeting your friends halfway.
“Oh my fucking god Y/n, that was the best thing anyone has ever done” Marlene told you. 
“Did you just punch Lucius Malfoy?” Sirius asked, excited, while Remus looked at your knuckles, he was trying to look disappointed but you saw him trying to hide a smile.
“Yes, could you please not tell Lily? She would kill me” You asked them, already in the Gryffindor common room.
“What did he tell you?” James asked after everyone told you that they wouldn’t tell her even when that was the best thing you’ve ever done.
“Just the same as always” You didn’t want to say the same as him, and honestly, you were embarrassed that you punched him just when he talked about Lily.
“Then why did you decide to punch him? You’re usually the calmest one” Mary narrowed her eyes at you, she suspected about your crush on Lily.
"Someone had to" Then Lily enters and everyone starts talking about some party they were planning. She sits next to you and you don't see it, but she notices your red knuckles. 
"Come with me" Lily gets up and grabs your wrist to lead you to her room. Once you're there, you sit on her bed, knowing that she's mad as she looks for something in her drawers. "Did you really think I wouldn't find out?" She sits next to you. 
"I was hoping"
"That was reckless, do you think they won't do anything about it? Maybe he's too embarrassed to tell the professors but they'll do something. And why? Because some comments that they always make. I can't believe it Y/n" You don't say anything, instead you quietly watch her healing your hand. "You're not going to say anything?"
"I don't want you to get mad" She sighs. 
"Why did you do it?" You doubt before answering, she's smart, if you tell her it was because of her, she'll probably find out why you care so much about her. 
"He insulted you" You avoid her gaze. 
"You punched the son of one of the richest pureblood families just because of me" You still don't look at her. 
"Yeah" 
“You are telling me, that you punched him, in front of his friends, who could’ve punched you too, just because of me”
“Are you going to make me say it again?” You ask her, embarrassed enough.
Then you have no choice but look at her eyes when she puts her hands on both of your cheeks. 
"I'm so in love with you" She mutters before kissing you. You quickly put your hands on her waist and follow the kiss, trying to remember everything in case you're dreaming. Her hands go to the back of your head to play with your hair, and you can’t help but pull her closer to you. 
You kiss her until you’re out of breath and then you pull apart and look at her freckles, at her red lips, red face and green eyes. 
"I'm in love with you too"
“I’m still mad at you” She frowns “It was literally insane, and just because of me, I can’t believe it”
“I didn’t like the thought of your name in his mouth, it felt so wrong. Because you’re so” You think about it before going on “sweet and smart and brave, and he’s so, I don’t know, him. I didn’t like it” You smile at her “And you can be mad all you want, as long as you’re still in love with me” You kiss her again, this time it’s a shorter kiss, a softer one.
“That’s not gonna work, I’m still mad, you fucking punched him, now they’ll try to hex you or something” She roll her eyes, even though it’s true, and if you weren’t thinking about the kiss you’d be worrying about that.
“It was worth it, I got to kiss you, twice” You smile even more, to which she sighs.
“I don’t normally have to worry about you, why today?” You look away, smiling awkwardly.
“Well, I was already mad…”
“Because of what” She looks already disappointed.
“Not mad, more like jealous, but just a bit, and I mean, it’s not like he didn’t deserve it so”
“What happened Y/n” She raises an eyebrow.
“You know that girl who’s been flirting with you all year? She asked me if you had a girlfriend or you were seeing someone, and it’s not like I could tell her that you were, because you aren't, even though I wanted to because I’m so in love with you it’s not normal. So I just told her that you're available, which is true because we’re not dating, I mean, we just kissed right now but that doesn’t have to mean anything if you want” You take a deep breath. “I’m rambling”
She sighs and smiles “Do you want to be my girlfriend?” She asks.
“Really?” She nods. “Yes, I’d love to be your girlfriend” She grabs your face and kisses you again. “And I meant it, you’re sweet, and smart, and perfect” You give her one kiss with each compliment. To which she kisses you again.
 ᰔᩚෆ❧ღდლ❦ও❥ଓ
Later, when you walk down the stairs, your friends are still there. You both sit on a couch and notice all of them looking at you.
“So?” Mary asks.
“What?” Lily asks her.
“Are you mad or not?” She points at you with her head.
“Yes, and we’re also dating” She casually says, making everyone look at you.
“What?” James asks, smiling, apparently, he knew about Lily’s crush on you.
“I knew it!” Marlene shouts, high-fiving Mary.
“How come when Y/n does something irresponsible she gets a girlfriend and when I do it you get mad at me?” Sirius asks Remus.
“She’s still mad at her” Remus reminds Sirius.

Okay I know it’s not Monday- but I’ve had a hard time taking my meds for depresso recently can you do lily or Remus helping reader take there meds Ty x
"It's time," Remus glances at his watch, "Ready, dove?"
A wave of resentment washes over you as Lily digs in her handbag for your medicine bottle, the orange plastic foreboding and somehow taunting.
"Whatever," You grumble, "I don't have water, I can't."
"I have water," Remus reaches into his own bag, a tote slung over his shoulder, "It might be a bit warm, but it's still water."
"Warm water makes me sick," You bluff, "I'll take them later."
"No you won't," Lily carefully insists, smile sympathetic, but not pitying, "I know you won't. I'm no stranger to your evasion tactics, sweetheart."
"Drink while you walk," Remus urges you, pointing at a window display of a novelty pillow, something you'd love to have on your bed, "I was gonna suggest we head in there, I know you'll like their display."
Lily hands you your pills quickly, keeping them hidden in her hand so that you don't see them. And she makes a point of casually walking away before you take them, even though Remus takes your free hand, watching out of the side of his eye while you swallow. They want to make sure you take them, but they don't want to hover, or stare at you.
Their understanding and accommodation of your routines is something you appreciate even if you don't say it, even if you can't say it. You wish you didn't have to take the meds at all, but if you have to, you suppose you want them in Lily's green purse, and you're not sure anything will wash them down better than Remus's water, because even if it is warm, you know he carries it for you.

Kiss the Girl
summary: in which you kiss lily evans playing spin the bottle.
warnings: little bit of fluff, it is SFW
word count: 1.1k
a/n: just a little bit of lily evans fluff that's been playing on my mind for a few days. inspired by katy perry's i kissed a girl. i hope you enjoy :)
Tumblr media
It wasn’t unusual for the Gryffindor common room to be in an uproar, especially when Sirius somehow managed to sneak a case of beers in. How he’d managed to get it past McGonagall was beyond you; no doubt he’d had Peter and James make a distraction. However he’d done it, you weren’t one to complain, not when the robust, hearty flavour was sliding down your throat and filling you with Dutch courage.
You weren’t the only one feeling that way—pleasantly buzzed and happy. The sixth-and seventh-year students were crowded around the common room, lounging on the couches and throwing cushions on the ground; the small coffee table having been pushed to the side of the room to make space. James was standing across from you, laughing as Marlene McKinnon downed the rest of her drink to be able to deposit the glass bottle in the circle of students that was beginning to form.
Someone—you're not sure who—joked about playing a game of spin the bottle, and that was what led to this. Some of the purebloods hadn’t understood why their muggle-born peers suddenly seemed excited, bouncing with nervous energy as though it were some scandalous sex party. Their confusion had been followed by playful teasing from the muggles, which in turn led to the purebloods puffing up their chests and claiming they’d be the winners.
Lily was the one to explain that no one really lost at spin the bottle, so long as everyone understood it was stupid, dumb fun.
And that was how you found yourself squished between Sirius and Remus, watching as the bottle spun, and spun, and spun, like a merry-go-round. It ended up being your turn after you shared a cheeky kiss with a pretty blond-haired boy with the bluest eyes you ever saw. But it wasn’t the lingering feeling of his lips on yours that had butterflies winging at your stomach or your cheeks flushing pink.
No, rather, it was the bottle slowing down, moving from student to student, and how the endpoint came to a stop pointing at Lily Evans, whose doe-eyes reflected your surprise. The crowd snickered around you. Sirius nudged your side teasingly, smooshing you into Remus.
You had never been one to back down from a confrontation or a challenge, not that this scenario fell into either category. Kissing Lily Evans, with her softly pouting lips and hair so bright it might burn your hands if you touched it, was quite the opposite. James grinned at you from across the circle, and your heart did a little somersault because you knew how much he liked the girl, and he’d describe kissing her as having a universe explode to life around him.
Lily beckoned you forward with the curl of a finger, her own face flushing a pretty pale pink, and as though you were a marionette and she held your strings, you moved. On hands and knees, you crawled to the centre of the circle, meeting the redhead there so that the two of you were face-to-face.
"Hi," you say with a laugh.
"Hey," she answers with a smile.
Your eyes drop to her mouth for a second, her soft pink lips shimmering from where she'd licked them. And then you’re looking at her again, into those incredible green eyes; the energy in the air suddenly palpable, and you feel like you can’t breathe because of how much you want this. You motion between the two of you with a hand, wanting her to be certain and comfortable before plunging into this new depth of friendship.
"Is this going to be okay? You and me?" You ask in a quiet voice.
"Stupid, dumb fun, right?"
"Yeah," you agree, not quite believing yourself.
Someone in the crowd of gathered students groaned and told the two of you to kiss already. Someone silenced him, probably Sirius, or maybe it was Remus. You paid the person no mind, focusing your attention entirely on the young woman before you. It wasn’t as though you’d never kissed anyone before, because you had. You’d had boyfriends and had even kissed a few of your girlfriends.
Maybe you felt nervous because this was Lily-freaking-Evans. The girl who had been one of your best mates since your first year at Hogwarts, the girl with whom another one of your best mates was hopelessly in love, the girl who was honestly all kinds of pretty and perfect, with a sexy kind of innocence. So yeah, the idea of kissing her had little butterflies in your stomach.
Pushing all that aside, you steeled yourself as Lily reached out a hand. She cupped your face gently, her thumb caressing the apple of your cheek and then your lips, catching the bottom one and pulling it down ever so slightly. The pads of her fingers were softer than you’d ever imagined; the tips of her nails leaving a tingle where they traced your skin, and her palm added a gentle warmth to your already flushed face.
You caress your hands up the sides of her thighs, letting her skirt catch on your nails and fall back down before revealing too much. You hold yourself still, so impossibly close to her mouth but still so far away, so that she has to be the one to close the distance. And then your lips are touching hers, parting to taste the sweet strawberry of her chapstick and the beer lingering on her tongue as you push yours into her mouth.
She grabs your hips, and you grab hers, pulling her against you. The world was fading quickly, leaving only the two of you kneeling in the common room. You don’t hear the hooting and hollering around you; you just feel her lips gliding against yours. You part your lips to trap her plump lower one between your teeth, suckling on it, loving how it entices soft little moans from her.
Lily weaves her fingers through your hair, desperate to hold you to her. And when she begins to draw back, you chase her, mashing your lips to hers for a minute longer before finally letting the kiss come to an end. The world is slow to come back to you. All that surrounds you is a universe exploding to life—a kaleidoscope of emotions and colours you've never seen before.
She's still holding you, and you're still holding her.
Her green eyes are glossy, and a knot of need twists your belly. You want desperately to lean in and kiss that pretty doe-eyed look right off her face. But the clearing of a throat brings you back to reality. Both of your faces are flushed brighter now, and your lips are shiny. You give her a smile.
"Just stupid, dumb fun, huh?"
