Severus looked at the red head. He couldn't tell her his secret. She wouldn't like him as a friend anymore. It'd be awkward if she found out, and he was too afraid to tell her. "Nothing's wrong," he said, looking straight into her eyes. He sighed though, knowing that he was lying right to her face. But, since he was good at lying, she wouldn't notice.

Lily quirked an eyebrow and leaned back in her chair. Hmm. He wasn't going to tell her, even though he knew that he could. It must be something crazy; it wasn't like Severus to keep secrets like this. A grin spread over her features briefly, then her face was neutral. "Fine." she said airily, shrugging as if she didn't care. But a moment after she spoke, Lily lifted a pale hand and jabbed her bruise, hard with her index finger. Wincing slightly, she then glanced to Severus and tried to hold in an evil smirk.

Severus winced as he saw her wince in pain. "Lily stop!" he said. He hated it when she guilted him into things. He didn't wanna tell her, but if he didn't want to see her in pain. "If I tell her, will you stop?" he asked, as calmly as physically possible. His best friend just caused physical harm upon herself. He would do anything to get her to stop. Even if that meant sharing his secret.

Just as she was getting ready to poke herself again, Lily heard his words (Lily, stop!) and grinned. Her thin finger paused just before her freckled cheek, some of it hidden by the purple bruise. Severus was going to give in, she knew him too well. At his request, she nodded. "Of course I'll stop. But it has to be the truth and you have to promise." Lily smiled brightly, hoping that he wouldn't just flat out lie to her. He'd never done that... had he?

Severus sighed. "I promise. If you promise to not scream/squeal/shriek," he said, looking at his feet again. He took a deep breath and looked at the girl. "The very truth is," he said, pausing a minute, "I really like you Lily. More than just a friend." He turned the darkest shade of red that he had ever turned before. He looked at his hands and mummbled, "I'll be okay if you don't wanna be friends anymore."

Lily was fully prepared to smile and reassure him that she liked him too, when he finished his secret. Emerald eyes grew wide and she blinked at him, before her mouth dropped open slightly. He was staring at the ground, looking embarassed and helpless. Instantly, Lily leaned forward and hugged Severus tightly, kissing his cheek lightly. "Oh Severus, I- I had no idea!" she exclaimed, pulling back to look at him a bit sadly, her heart aching for him to smile again. "Would... would it be too cliche to say I like you, too? A lot?"
(( AWW! *dies* ))

(( hehe. don't you love how both of our characters go from single to taken right after one another? ))
"Not at all," he said, with surprise in his tone, and a smile spread on his face. He returned her hug. He broke it though, and looked at her. His smile never leaving his face. "So, this means you'll definitely be my girlfriend?" he asked, just making sure. That was the best he could come up with too. He was at a major loss of words, and, well, he wasn't great under pressure. He looked at her again, the smile still planted there. It'll take a week for him to get the smile off his face.

(( that's only cause we rule! now if only someone would actually want Peter to be their boyfriend. *sulks* nobody likes him. xD ))
Quickly, color rushed to Lily's pale freckled cheeks and she bit her lip slightly. Her only real boyfriend had been the year previous and it had only lasted a couple of months. Sure she'd been on a couple of dates, but this was different. This was Severus, and she knew with him it would be simple, easy as breathing. Through her blush, she smiled fondly and nodded. "Of course." Her heart was pounding loudly, excitedly. She never thought that today she'd not only get her best friend back and come to terms with her feelings for him, but end up dating him too! Her smile widened and she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "You'll probably want to rub this in James's face, then?" she asked, grinning.

"Of course," he said, "I get the pretty lady before he did." He smiled, at what he can now call, his girlfriend. It sounded so good to him. The sound of Lily actually being his girlfriend. The fact that she went with him, and James can't have her until after they were separated. Severus was very content with what happened today. He gave her a kiss on the cheek. He hadn't been able to do that at all, from shyness. And now he can do it whenever he wanted. This was going to be a big step for Sev.

(( haha, we should go on a double date with james and riley. xD how funny would that be? ))
Lily blushed slightly at his compliment as his kiss. "Don't be silly." she murmured. "I'd pick you over Potter any day!" a happy laugh escaped her and she smiled at him, scooting the chair a bit closer so she could reach him better. Now she was free to act how she wanted to with him, and it was so refreshing. Returning his kiss with one of her own, Lily smiled up at him. "How long have you felt this way, Sev?" she questioned, too bad they couldn't have done this sooner.

(( yes, cuz that would end SO well. Severus would go home with a black eye 0.o ))
Severus smiled. "It's reassuring to know that I'm better than Potter," he said. He blushed a little at her question though. "A while," he muttered, just loud enough for her to hear. None-the-less he kissed her head, waiting for her to have some sort of reaction. "How about you?" he asked, almost as it was everyday conversation for them. He looked over at her, and then smiled. He was happy that she was only his and no one elses.

Lily smiled fondly at his answer, reaching for one of his hands and holding it gently. She'd noticed in the past but appreciated it now; they fit so well together, they always did. Then he asked her the same thing and she blushed lightly, but grinned. "A while." she responded in kind. He was so caring and obviously so shy and new at this. Lily chuckled lightly before leaning forward and gently touching her lips to his. It was chaste, and only lasted a moment but it was sweet. The redhead pulled back after a moment and smiled, it was something both of them had been waiting for for a long time.
(( lily and james are going to be all, BBFS!!! and then lily's going to go 'pleeeeease sevvy i PROMISE he'll be nice!' xD ))

(( and sevvy will come home with a black eye anyway!!! =] ))
Severus smiled after she kissed him. His first kissed came from his best friend, who would've thought? And in a library? He smiled wider, as their hands fit perfectly into one anothers. He kissed her on the lips this time, savouring it, making it last longer than it had last time. He stayed there, not wanting to move away, eye closed. The only way he'd break this kiss right now, is if she broke it for him.

She should've known he'd be kissing her again; why not? It was natural and wonderful and one of the awesome perks of being in a relationship. Lily felt her heart flutter and of course she kissed him back, hoping in the back of her mind that no one was watching; not that she minded if anyone saw. She just didn't want to get into trouble. After a moment she chuckling against his lips, pulling away briefly, laughing. "Severus!" she scolded jokingly, a happy smile on her lips. (( lily would SO beat james up! xD ))

(( true, true ))
Severus looked at her. "What?" he asked, innocently. He looked at her, smiling the whole time. He liked the fact that his best friend was now his girlfriend. He liked the fact that he actually got a girlfriend. And he liked the fact tat he got his first kiss by his best friend. Severus knew that this year was going to be a very good year for him. He got the girl before James, and he is really happy for once in his life. Nothing could bring him down anymore.
