Our Seventh Year

James rushed up the steps, his hand on his hat to keep it in place. He paused outside the door, and said the password as he adjusted the collar on his cape.

Lily heard him outside the door and rose from the couch taking a deep breath. She was nervous how he was going to react to her costume, and she was feeling self conscious again.

He opened the door, and stopped for a second to look at her. She looked totally different, it was still her, but a very sexy version of her.

“Hey Lils,” he said with a smirk looking her over as he neared her. She was drop dead gorgeous, and the costumes hugged her every curve. “You look great.”

“Thank you,” Lily said blushing slightly as she looked him over. “So do you.”

James grabbed her hand lightly, leaning down to kiss her. He stopped and wiped his lip checking his hand for any lipstick.

“Don’t worry,” Lily said with a laugh. “It doesn’t come off unless I use my wand to remove it.”

He smirked, and walked with her out of the common room. They went down to the main common room where everyone was running around with their friends and dates.

“Over here Prongs,” Peter yelled. He had spotted the two of them first, well actually Lily first.

James nodded and led Lily though the crowd to his group of friends. He could see people looking over him, and Lily, and just smirked.

Sirius paused, not being able to help Lily up and down. The costume was definitely showing off her every asset.

“Let’s go,” James said and the five of them slipped out of the common room, Lily’s heels clicking with every step she took.

The area around the great hall was decorated grandly, even the knights had costumes on. Inside the great hall was bright so people could see to get in and get a table. The house ghosts were floating around, and even moaning Myrtle had come to the occasion.

They staked out a table and took a seat as people began to arrive, some of the costumes were outlandish, but others were really good and original. All the professors had dressed up as well and were sitting at their regular tables.

Exactly at the stroke of five, all the main torches went out, and the hundreds of floating pumpkins candles came on. It was very dim, and the music began to pump throughout the hall. Instantly, hoards of people were up making their way to the dance floor. Sirius had nabbed a few girls, for himself, as well as Remus and Peter. They were the two of the group who were too shy to ask a girl themselves.

“Well, do you want to dance?” James asked her with a charming smile.

“Of course,” Lily exclaimed loudly over the music. She stood quickly, grabbed his hand, and pulled him onto the dance floor. Lily was used to always dancing with her friends, and a few random boys when she went to do a dance, but now she had someone to dance with, she was going to take full advantage of it.

James followed willingly, navigating through the crowd of people. Once she found a good spot, Lily turned around to face him, her hips swaying to the music. She loved dancing.

He raised an eyebrow at her, then grabbed her hips within his hands, pulling her close to him, matching her rhythm. James was not afraid to dance like many boys were.

Lily raised her arms above her head pushing her body into his to the beat. People were pushing from all angles, but that was what made it fun. She spotted a beat red Remus dancing with a younger girl, she could not see Peter or Sirius anywhere though.

Slowly, his leg worked it’s way in between hers so her thigh was rubbing up against his. He needed some more friction.

She pushed down on his leg, moaning a bit, though it was not audible. She bit her bottom lip, giving him a sexy smirk, and pushed her body up against his. Lily could feel the sweat that had broken out on her forehead, as well as her back.

He closed his eyes after she smirked at him, his hands moving down her lower back pulling her even closer to him.

After dancing for nearly an hour and a half, Lily was completely winded. “Can we get a drink?” She asked leaning up to practically yell in his ear over the music.

“Yeah,” he panted, grabbing her hand, leading her out of the crowd. It was amazing, once they broke though everyone, it felt as if it was ten degrees cooler.

“You have a seat,” James said pulling the chair out for her. “I’ll go get us some punch.”

Lily gratefully took a seat, watching everyone dance. She spotted Sirius with some girl in a corner. He was busy putting the moves on her, and she was falling for it.

James returned with two glasses of punch, collapsing into a chair next to her.

“Thank you,” Lily said smiling at him before taking a huge sip, almost finishing her glass. She grabbed his hand under the table, using her other to push that hair that had stuck to her forehead off.

They danced for the rest of the night until about nine thirty. James abruptly stopped, and smiled down at her. Now would be the best time to do what he had been planning for about a week now.

“I want to show you something,” James said in her ear, a bit loud of course because of the music.

She nodded, grasping his hand once again and following him out of the crowd, having to push a bit. Now that it was later in the night, people were dancing more provocatively, and a few people had snuck in liquor.

They passed by the food and drink table, and Lily stopped quickly to down some more punch. After she had finished, she could taste it, “damn it,” she said scraping her tongue with her teeth to get the taste out.

“Someone spiked the punch,” James said after setting down his glass as well. He knew exactly what it was, whiskey. That went straight to everyone’s head, especially none drinkers like Lily, and very light drinkers such as himself.

He hoped it was diluted enough in the punch so he would not do anything stupid, or forget the rest of the night. James wrapped an arm around her gently, and led her out of the great hall.

“So where are you taking me?” Lily asked him. She felt her cheeks burning a bit from the whiskey, and was sure they were red, if they weren’t already from dancing.

“It’s a surprise,” James said opening the door that led outside. It was a calm night, and no teachers would be patrolling the grounds, they were too busy with the dance.

Lily laughed, and followed his lead. The ground was hard from the cold, and she was grateful for that, otherwise she was sure her heels would sink in.

He was taking her to the rock he took her to the first night on their walk, except this time, James had prepared. There were two blankets rolled up and tucked under a small rock, one to sit on, and way to huddle under.

Once the rock ledge was in view, Lily knew exactly where they were going, but she did not fight. The great hall was loud, and silence was a beautiful thing. She could hear owls and other creatures in the distance of the forbidden forest, but besides that was the lapping of the water on the lake edge.

“Wait here,” James said running ahead a bit before turning around to look at her. “And close your eyes.”

The night was mostly dark, the only moon was a small sliver, and it kept disappearing behind a cloud. He found the blankets Sirius’ had tucked away for him earlier under a rock as well as a few small candles that were resistant to the wind.

He climbed up, placing everything out, taking off his hat, cape, and cleaning off his face from the makeup. Once he was sure everything was set perfect, he lit the candles climbing back down to Lily who was waiting patiently with her eyes shut.

“Keep ‘em closed,” James whispered as he walked up behind her closing her eyes. He led her to the rock.

Lily’s hands went out in front of her as she felt the crunching of pebbles under her feet. She had no idea what was going on, she had been out here before with him, so it was nothing surprising.

“Alright, I will tell you what to do,” James said his hands going around her waist to help her up. He instructed her carefully, ready to catch her at any moment. He could see up her skirt, and saw that the fishnets were held up by garters, and she was wearing black knickers.

Lily made it up to the top carefully, her eyes still closed. She could heard James scrambling up next to her.

“Open,” he said quietly into her ear, his hands holding her around the waist.

Lily opened her eyes, and her hand went up to her mouth. It was not much, but it was beautiful. “Wow James,” she breathed moving over to the blanket to sit down. She looked over at him as he neared, taking a seat behind her, pulling her into his lap.

The only light at the moment was from the candles, and it flickered dancing over Lily’s face. James grabbed the other blanket pulling it around the both of them.

“This is beautiful,” Lily said looking up at him with a smile.

He paused, he had rehearsed this speech for three days now, and did not want to mess it up.

“There is a reason for all this Lily.” James said staring into her vibrant green eyes. “I know the waiting has been forever, but I wanted it to be perfect.” He paused, taking a deep breath. “But I will ask you for the last time...I hope...” James said with a smile. “Lily Evans, will you be my girlfriend.” He waited for her answer, sure of what it would be, though his stomach still knotted.

“It will be the last time,” Lily said with a smile, grabbing a hold of his hands smiling up at him. “I would love to be your girlfriend James Potter.” She pushed up against him, craning her neck to kiss him hard against the lips. Lily had been waiting for him to ask for the last week.

He pulled back after kissing her, “I’m sorry if you felt like I was holding it off. I wasn’t doing it on purpose, I just wanted it to be perfect.”

Lily blushed at his comment, “it is perfect.” She adjusted so her legs were hanging off the side of his lap so she could face him better. Lily searched his eyes, her hand running up to the side of her face.

Finally, Lily was his, he held her tight to his body, the blanket covering everything but their heads. He kissed her passionately, his hand moving behind her neck. The alcohol he had drank was starting to give him a bit of a light head.

She kissed him back with equal passion, her hands running down his chest. She reached the zipper on his vest undoing it with a sense of urgency. Lily wanted James, if now was not the time, she did not know when it would be. The setting was romantic, and she had been depriving herself of him for too long.

Strangely enough, there was not an awkward feeling at all. They had known one another for six years now, even if they were not the best of friends. Lily knew she loved this boy more then any other man in the world.

James pushed the vest off himself, dropping it down next to them. He knew that the laces on the back of her corset were going to take a while, so he began to undo them pulling them loose.

Lily explored his mouth with her tongue as her shaking fingers worked on the buttons of his shirt. She could feel the alcohol going to her head slightly but tried to ignore it as best as she could.

Finally after a minute or two, he was able to get all the laces undone, and he pulled them completely out , before peeling the tight fitting corset off of her. He realized then that she was not wearing a bra, which did not bother him in the least.

As he peeled the tight forming outfit off of her, Lily could breath again finally. Even under the blankets, the cold air made her shiver. A few seconds later Lily got the last button undone, and she slowly pushed it off his shoulders, and down his arms.

James looked at her in the candle light, moving to kiss her neck, moving over the remnants of the mark he had left last time. Just as the night before he took one of her breasts into his mouth, playing with her other nippled with his hands.

Lily groaned, adjusting to grind up against his already aroused prick. She could feel in between her legs that she wanted him, her knickers a bit wet.

He flicked his tongue over her nipple lightly, his hands sliding down her back, to her sides, then a bit under her skirt on her thighs.

She moaned his name quietly, her head going back a bit. Lily pushed her hips up to his hand a bit, willing him to move on. She had never been touched by someone else this way, but strangely she was unafraid.

James nodded, his hand going further up her skirt reaching her knickers. Ever so slowly, they ran to her center. He could feel that she was already excited, and he smirked, moving to kiss her lips. Gently, James began to rub her through her knickers.

Her eyes fluttered opened when she felt his hands on her, her body instantly pushing to his hands. He was gentle, which she appreciated fully.

After a second, James moved her gently, laying her on the blanket. His hands moved to fumble with the zipper of her skirt, pausing to look up at her face. When she did not protest, he unzipped it fully pulling it down her legs to reveal her black knickers and the garters to hold up her stockings. Looking at her was turning him on minute by minute.

Lily tried her best to relax letting him work, pushing her hips up so he could pull down her skirt. Then she felt his hands work on her garters, but before he got to her feet she stopped him, kicking the heels off with a little bit of difficulty.

She looked up at him, not wanting to be the only one almost naked. After a second, her trembling hands worked on his belt, button and zippers. She fumbled a bit, but finally got them undone, pushing them down as far as she could get.

James could tell she was nervous, “if you want to stop love, just let me know,” he said looking down at her concerned, the last thing he wanted was to rush her. James kicked off his shoes while he said this as well, so he could get his pants off.

Lily shook her head, pulling him down to kiss her. She could feel his prick brushing up against her, just that light touch caused her to moan.

His kiss once again went to her neck, but stayed in that area as his hands went back down between her legs to rub her through her knickers. James thumb then hooked the top of them, and pulled down on them slightly.

She nodded, not wanting to think, just going with what she felt. Lily could feel his hot breath on her shoulder, and heard him whisper, “are you sure Lils?” She did not answer, instead, she lifted her hips up to his hand.

James did not have to be told twice. Slowly, he pulled them down, glancing at what he had just revealed. She was fully shaved down there, and could see her area swollen with excitement. His hands traced back up her leg teasing a bit, before his fingers found her center.

Lily moaned when he touched her, and she bit lightly on his ear. “I want you James,” she panted quietly.

His eyes opened slightly, he was surprised at her boldness. He wanted her badly as well, more then he had ever before. “I don’t want to hurt you,” James responded. Truth was, he had never had sex before in his life, he had done everything leading up to it, but every time he came close to with another girl he thought of Lily and stopped.

“Just be gentle,” Lily said quietly looking at his eyes. She was afraid of the pain she was going to feel, but knew it would be worth it in the end.

He nodded, he knew that she was going to need to be much more wet then she was. The finger he had been playing with her with, slowly slipped inside of her, moving in and out slowly. Once he saw she was accustomed to it, he pushed another finger into her waiting for a response.

The second one hurt, but she tried to hide it as she became used to it. His thumb was still rubbing her lightly, and Lily could feel herself close to the edge.

After she was stretched out slightly, James felt she was wet, but not enough. Slowly he kissed his way down her collar bone, to her chest, down to her navel and went even further.

Lily knew exactly what he was doing, and smirked slightly, her hands grabbing his hair.

James reached as far as he could go, and licked at her center slightly. Sirius always commented about how the taste bothered him, but James had to disagree, it did not bother him at all.

Her eyes shut tight as she felt his tongue on her, she had never felt anything like this before in her life. Without realizing, Lily bucked her hips up to his face lightly.

James smirked, moving his tongue faster over her, tracing circles before he nipped at her very lightly. After continuing to lick her for a good five minutes, James felt she was wet enough, smirking, he moved back up to her neck kissing her as he pulled off his boxers.

“Are you sure your ready?” James asked her kicking off his boxers as they reached his knees.

“Yes,” Lily said quietly.

James positioned himself at her entrance, looking at her eyes one last time before pushing in gently. She was incredibly tight, and it felt amazing around him, it was even better then what Sirius had said.

Lily bit her lip in pain as he did this. God did it ever hurt. She looked up at him, and saw his eyes full of concern. She nodded for him to continue.

“Go in fast,” Lily said quickly. It was the only way to break the sheath that covered her opening.

He nodded knowing why she had told him that. With a swift motion he plunged into her deep, moaning, but feeling bad because he knew it hurt her.

Tears were forming in Lily’s eyes from the pain she felt. She kept coaching herself after the pain would only be pleasure. She relaxed herself a bit, looking at James, who was waiting patiently for her.

“We can stop,” James said quietly, genuinely concerned for her.

“No, keep going,” Lily breathed staring up at him. She could feel a wetness that knew had to be blood, but hoped it would not bother James, though she was feeling embarrassed.

He nodded, leaning down once again, slowly thrusting his hips in and out of her. He could not even describe what he was feeling, but pleasure was showing on his face.

The pain began to subside, but it was still there, and Lily knew it would be the first couple of times they had sex. He hit a particularly good spot, and she moaned his name, her nails digging into his back.

James began to go faster, feeling himself near coming. It was weird for it to be this early, but knew that was what happened on your first time, plus he did not want to hurt Lily anymore then he had.

Lily pushed her hips up to him, pleasure and pain waring against one another. She was grateful her friends had convinced her to start taking birth control the year before. Their reasoning was so she could get used to taking it, and when she first had sex, there was no need to worry.

He felt his stomach tighten, and James moaned her name into her ear as he came. He kept moving until he was done, then gently pulled out of her.

Lily curled up next to him once he laid down, hoping he did not noticed the blood. Being a virgin she still had the hymen there, and he had torn it.

James rubbed her back, knowing it had hurt her, but hoped she did not regret it, “are you alright love?” He asked her unable to wipe the grin from his face.

“Yes,” Lily said smiling up at him. Her inner thighs still throbbed, and she hoped it would go away soon.

They laid there for about an half hour before they both began to shiver from the cold.

“Let’s get to bed,” James said sitting up slightly. He tossed her her corset and skirt, then began to change as well, giving her the cape, so she would not have to lace the whole thing up again.

James put out all the candles, folded the blankets, and shrank them to fit into his pocket.

Lily placed her high heels on, looking at him as she did. God he was perfect for her. She pocketed her knickers and fishnets, the proceeded to climb down the rock with James help.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They made it back to their room, many people still at the dance, since it was not over for another ten minutes.

“Stay with me tonight,” James said as they entered their private area.

Blushing, Lily nodded, and followed him up to his room. Everything was identical, except their rooms mirrored one another.

James wandered over to his dresser, finding a t-shirt for her to wear, as well as some pajama bottoms.

He handed them to her, before she slipped into the bathroom. She was not bleeding anymore, and proceeded to clean herself up before changing. The pants were huge on her, and she had to roll them a few times at the hips before she could walk in them

When she emerged again, James was fully changed, with the bed sheets pulled down.

Even though Lily had stayed with him the night before, she was still being shy, and blushed as she climbed into bed next to him.

James held her small frame close to him, kissing the back of her neck gently and repeatedly. He could feel his eyes begin to get heavy.

“I love you,” he said quietly, hoping it did not scare her, even though they had just had sex.

Lily’s eyes opened and she smiled wide, rolling over to look at him. Their relationship would seemed rushed to some, but to her everything was perfect timing.

“I love you too,” she said honestly.

He kissed her lips gently, before closing his eyes to drift off to sleep.
