"Hello chaps and chapsses!" James exclaimed happily, as he walked in holding Lily's hand.
"Nice lipstick, Lily" Marlene said as soon as James and Lily took a seat for dinner.
"Oh, thanks Marly" Lily answered, unaware of how everyone was trying not to laugh.
"I like your lipstick too, Potter" Marlene added "Red is trending at the moment, I believe"
Lily's eyes widened as she got a sight of what James's lips looked like. Her cheeks went bright red. She gasped, grabbing a napkin and wiping James's mouth. Their friends laughed at that sight.
"Clean yourself"
"What?"
"Clean yourself" Lily smiled embarrassed, checking her reflection in a little mirror and trying to fix it.
"Isn't that my lipstick, darling?" Mary raised an eyebrow.
"Borrowed it, Mary" Lily mumbled with embarrassment "You said it was okay"
"Oh! Red velvet to unleash passion, I remember" Mary nodded.
That made the others laugh more, especially if Lily blushed like that. James raised an eyebrow amused.
"Red velvet passion?"
"I am trying new colors" Lily explained nervously "James helped me experiment a bit with makeup"
"Is that so, Prongsie?" Sirius asked with amusement. "That is your color, darling" we winked.
"Thanks, babe"
"I didn't know you knew about makeup, Prongs" Peter commented, as he played with his food.
"Oh I love trying new lipsticks, their color, their taste, especially if they come from Lily" James winked and hit Sirius's palm, but then whined in pain as Lily kicked his leg under the table.
There were some giggles after that.
"Okay, fine" Lily snapped "I kissed my boyfriend. I don't see there is anything wrong with that" she shrugged at the end.
"You snogged his face more like" Marlene whispered with a smile.
"Of course there is nothing wrong with that" Mary smiled widely.
"Absolutely nothing" James added.
"You should go wild, Lily."
"Mary!" Lily blushed
"Please, go wild" James agreed.
"You deserve it"
"And it benefits me"
Lily gave her boyfriend a nasty look but he just smiled "I love your smooches, baby" he said in a silly voice, making Lily smile. And pushing his face away.
"Shut up, you wanker" Lily rolled her eyes, though she was happy. James was happy too as he put his arm around her "Why don't we eat this delicious dinner, eh? Yum, is that meat pie?"
Remus liked the way James and Lily fitted so well together. He had seen how much James had pinned for Lily. He had heard how he thought Lily was the most beautiful girl he'd ever seen. But how he was sure she wouldn't feel the same. And Remus had seen how Lily slowly fell for him. How she was unsure about her feelings but she couldn’t deny them at the end. How she used to stare at James wondering if he still felt the same. They looked so happy now. Remus was happy for his two best friends.
"Are you still hungry, Lils? I mean after eating James's face, you must be full" Remus heard his friends laughing as he sipped his juice and that made him smile.
"Nice one, Moony" Sirius hit his palm, between fits of laughter.
"And you call yourself my friend, Lupin" Lily tutted, while Remus blew her a kiss.
