I'm The Master, So Kiss Me
Disclaimer: Please don't sue me. This is all fanfiction! Yay for that. J.K. Rowling needs to be mentioned when it comes to Harry Potter. Yay that she has invented such a story!
Author's Note: Yay! This is my second Lily and James story. I'm sure you'll love this one. I'll try to have some humor in it. This one is going to be fun to write.
Summary: James caught Lily doing something "naughty" and so Lily, seeing that she's a goody-goody and does not want to get in trouble, has to keep James quiet. But what exactly does she have to do? Be a love slave to James. With James's obsession for Lily and his twisted mind (as well as Sirius's) and with Lily's hot temper, anything can happen.

Chapter 1- An Introduction By The Ever-So-Lovely Sirius Black
Ah, amour. What a wonderful, sexy word. Ok, maybe not sexy but it was worth a shot. For all you non-french people out there, amour is love. Yes love. Love can mean all sorts of things. Mainly, it's a feeling shared between two people whether between a girl-boy, or a boy-boy or a girl-girl.
Ick, just the thought of it makes me sick. No offence and I apologize for all you people out there who are gay or lesbos etc.
Anyways, this is a story of James and Lily. Yes, the so-called "famous" couple. What about me? Don't I get a fame show here? Ah well, I will be the famous narrator/marauder/single guy.
Yes, sadly, I am single.
Well, continuing on, James saw Lily who did something naughty. Tsk tsk Lily. Doing something naughty. And here I thought you were a goody-two shoes. Guess I thought wrong.
What is the "something naughty" part, you ask? Well, I don't know if I should tell you...
Ok! Fine! The suspense is killing me! Lily brewed an illegal potion and accidentally fed it to the professors. Unfortunately, Professor Snake and Snivellus managed to brew an antidote for the professors. Though it was quite amusing to see the professors acting odd behaviours with the most foul and disgusting warts on their faces.
I shudder at the thought. Yet, a brilliant mastermind plan. Why didn't I think of that?!? Grr...
Well, back to the story. James and I had found out what she had done and Lily, being all panicky, had to have a small -ahem- deal with James. I was only there for mere amusement.
Naturally, she agreed to the terms without a few curses and hexes flown around the room. The deal was sealed by a kiss. James gave me that famous I-am-so-good-and-cunning-I-should-be-in-Slytherin smile. I only chuckled and shook my head.
The deal? Well, James always had a small...wait, no, a HUGE crush on Lily Evans. Of course he would think of something extremely funny and witty and something to his advantage. A love slave. Amazing. He gets to have blackmail and have Lily his love slave. How lucky can this git get?!? Makes me a bit envious. Grr...life is cruel.
Well, let's start on Day 1...
"Ugh, James, do you honestly have to eat like that?" Remus asked, disgusted while trying to hide his face behind his book. I, on the other hand, didn't care since I was doing the exact same thing, stuffing my face with as much food as I can possibly chew and get in my mouth.
"Whaft's wrong? Good food should not fbe wafsted!" Remus only flicked a piece of food that was thrown from my mouth and shook his head.
"Merlin, I don't know why I bother hanging out with you and James sometimes." I only shrugged my shoulders and looked over at James who was staring open mouthed...at Lily.
I shook my beautiful and gorgeous head and slapped James across the back of his head.
"Ow, what you do that for, you git?!?" He exclaimed loudly. Everyone stared at James yet they seemed to have shrugged their shoulders and go back to chatting about. Is James all that predictible? Sadly, I think so.
"You have drool coming out which is pretty filthy and disgusting and you're staring at Evans too much which is not a good thing." James glared at me and returned to eating his now completely filled drooled food. "Please tell me you won't eat that." I whimpered at James. James sighed and pushed his plate away. The Marauders and I breathed a sigh of relief. Honestly, can James get any thicker?
"You're daft Padfoot. Very daft." I stared incredulously at him.
"I'm not the one staring at the girl they are obsessed with!" That was a bit too loud as everyone once again stared at James including Evans who shot us a glare. I gave out a chuckle and patted James on the back who was now grumbling something like some insane psychotic maniac who was just released from St. Mungo's.
"James, bloke, you should really go and visit the hospital because I think you're the one becoming daft." Remus slapped my head with his thick book.
"Ow! Bloody hell Remy, what'd you do that for?!?" Remus shook his head and sighed.
"Siri," he mocked me, "you just don't understand true love."
"True lo- what the bloody hell is that supposed to mean?!? Prongs, do not go and be like an idiot. Now tell me the truth. Are you in love with Evans?" I stared sternly at him which was quite comical, considering the fact that I've never been very...well, serious. I am Sirius of course but you know what I mean. Excuse the pun please.
"Sirius, you're really slow. Of course I'm in love with Evans! Why else have I been brooding over her for the past 6 years?" This time, there was a flicker of amusement creasing over his eyes. I stared, horrified. I would commit myself to that...commitment!
"Commitments. That's it. James, you're going mad. Bloody mad I tell you! That's it, I'm taking you to St. Mungo's!" James had never been the one to make commitments.
"Sirius, don't make this into one of your "He's-bloody-crazy-that-he-needs-to-be-taken-to-St.-Mungo's" things." I pretended to do a mock faint and was about to say something but I saw something so hilarious and incredible, words cannot express what I felt.
In front of me was the strangest sight ever. The Professors were honking and making some odd monkey noises and jumping all around with these foul warts on their face. I could tell that Dumbledore was trying to keep a straight face as Professor McGonagall stood up and glared at the Marauders.
Honestly, it wasn't us this time. I was gaping like a goldfish, Remus was looking horrified and James...well, James was trying hard not to laugh and look stunned at the same time. Oh and the fabulous part about it all was that we had detention for something we didn't do. As well, 50 points were taking off. Really, I wouldn't stoop that low to prank the teachers. I knew who did it though as well as James. I just didn't know it would result to this.
"James." I hissed at him, poking him on the side. James gave a startled yelp. The noise had quieted down a bit and the professors were given antidotes by Snake and Snivellus. Oy, Snivellus. The most foul and disgusting creature ever to walk the Earth.
"What Padfoot?" James hissed back, rubbing his side (I did poke him rather hard, I admit but that's not the point).
"I've got a brilliant plan to get back at Evans." James eyed me for a moment, having his suspicious, skeptical look on his face. I knew he was trying to decide whether it was a good or bad thing. It was good of course, nothing bad's going to happen to Evans. Probably I'm going to make James and Eva-er...Lily, be together and get happily married. What I would get out of it would be the entertainment.
"What plan?" He asked slowly. I grinned slyly at James. I whispered in his ear and I swear, I could feel a smile coming on.
"Brilliant." He breathed out. His eyes were shining. I knew the old James was in there somewhere. Remus leaned forward and stared squarely at me.
"Sirius, what are you planning to do?" So, naturally I told him simply. He pondered for a moment and nodded.
"Nothing sexual of course." I rolled my eyes.
"Then what is the point?" Remus snorted a laugh and rolled his eyes, shaking his head.
"You're impossible."
"You're incorrigible." Remus looked at me strangely.
"What?" I asked innocently. It was then that I noticed Lily getting up with a very worried look on her face. She quickly dashed out of the Great Hall. Like reading my mind, we all got up to follow Lily to wherever she was going. It so happened that she went into the common room. This was it, the moment of truth. Well, not really, but it was the time to bring out what we so happened to know.
I grinned cheekily at James who slyly grinned back. This was going to be good. We stepped inside the common room and saw Lily pacing in front of the fire.
"What seems to be the problem, Evans?" I asked as innocently as I possibly good. It was foolproof of course, she didn't suspect a thing.
"None of your business Black." She snapped at me without even looking in my direction. How rude! I scoffed at her.
"James, I don't think she's allowed to do that to us, right?" James enthusiastically nodded his head.
"Oh absoutely. Of course. Especially since we seem to know her dirty little secret." James then pretended to nonchantly stare at his fingers and ever so "casually" stare at the ceiling and around the room. It was all I could do to keep myself from laughing. Lily had stopped pacing and stared at James with narrow eyes.
"What the bloody hell are you talking about? What secret?" She said in that low and soft dangerous voice of hers...
And James says her voice are like bells. What a bloody idiot.
"Oh, you know exactly what we're talking about." Lily marched forward to James and grabbed him by the collar.
"You better tell me what it is you're saying or I swear I will beat you to the pulp. Don't you dare say that I won't!" She looked so fearfully dangerous that I had to step back a bit away from her but it was too late because she shot me a glare.
"One of you will tell me now what is going on and how you happened to found out whatever it is you knew." She could become an Auror one day, I could tell you that.
"Alright. I'll tell you." I said with an exasperated sigh. It was over-exaggerated of course but Lily had let down James and had let go of his collar. James coughed a bit and rubbed his neck. "Ok, we found out about about how you "accidentally" placed a potion in the professors' drinks."
Lily stared silent for a moment as she froze. I could tell by the horrified look on her face. She cleared her throat and stared unexpectedly at me.
"How did you find out?" She asked as calmly as she could. Her defence mechanism had suddenly crashed and in stood a...well, I'm not entirely sure. In other words, her temper was gone...for now. Only a temporary moment unfortunately. I made a snort of a laugh and rolled my eyes. Her defence mechanism flared up one more as she glared at me.
"We're the Marauders. We're bound to know." I said in my "it's-so-obvious" tone. She crossed her arms and tapped her foot impatiently on the carpeted floor.
"Well, excuse me oh-great-pig-headed-one." She said sarcastically. I had to let that one go, for now. It was all part of a good cause though it make me a little irritated. Honestly, Evans was such a spoiled little brat sometimes.
"If you're going to insult us, then I'm afraid we're going to take this to the professors, namely the Headmaster as well." Lily only smirked at us, amusement flashing in her eyes. She wants amusement, we'll give her amusement.
"I take it they're going to believe you?" James then stepped forward with an equally looking smug face as Lily's.
"Not us, Remus." Ha, I knew she's be terrified. Allow me to clarify what we mean. You see, Remus is a prefect and he's the sensible, honest one. Besides that fact, he's a prefect. Everyone knows that the professors always believe prefects. That's why they have chosent those people to be prefects. Remus happens to be one of the so-called "lucky" few. Well, he's lucky to us but that's it.
Another good thing about Remus is that he somewhat agrees with my plan of getting James and Lily together. Lily looked defeated after we told her that Remus was going to tell. She sighed and uncrossed her arms.
"Alright, what do you want?" She said in an irritated tone.
"I thought you'd never ask, James?" James stepped forward and cleared his throat.
"You're to be my love slave."
"What?!?" Lily blowed out with that fiery temper of hers. Spitfire of course, which James absolutely adores.
"Rule # 1, do not speak unless the master says so." Lily glared at me.
"I will speak whenever I please." I shrugged my shoulders and stared at James who then nodded, as if giving permission for Lily to speak and ignoring what Lily had said. "I refuse to become a love slave to you." Typical of Lily to refuse.
"That, or the professors." James sung out. Lily closes her eyes and ponders for a moment.
"Fine, what do you want me to do?"
"What do you want me to do, Master." I corrected her. Lily sighs.
"What do you want me to do...Master?" She stared at me with such hatred. James smiled happily.
"Kiss the Master." James said calmly. Lily growled under her breath and quickly kissed James on the cheek.
"What is that?" I said indignantly. "That wasn't even a kiss!"
"He never said on the lips." She shot back at me. Clever, are we?
"Rule #2, do not talk to the Master's friends rudely." I nodded to Lily in a "see? you shouldn't" sort of way. Lily only ignored me.
"Kiss the Master on the lips." James said, trying again. Lily attempts to avoid any physical contact except for the lips because she gave a quick peck to James on the lips. We all sighed with impatience. Only James seemed to enjoy it.
"At least she's kissing me." James said confidently. I only roll my eyes.
"Boredom. Make her do something." I whined. Lily seemed to be happy that we don't seem to like what she's doing. James squatted a hand at me. I slapped it hard. As he was rubbing his hand, I snapped my fingers. "I know! Dinnertime, I wnat you to stand up on the Gryffindor table and confess your love to the Master." Lily looked horrified.
"Do I have to?" I nodded and gave her a stern look. "Fine." She growled at me and then turned to go to her next class.
"Ah, you forgot something." James called out. Lily stalked back and kissed James square on the lips.
"Happy?"
"Very. But I was talking about your transfiguration text book." He lifted the book up. We all laughed as Lily snatched the book from James' hand.
"Idiot. Sod off."
"Rule #3, do not insult the master." She shot a glare at us once more before leaving.
"That, I must say, was entertaining. She'll fall in love with you soon Prongs."
"Do you have a life, Padfoot, or do you just enjoy being entertained by mine?" James joked at me. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Just comparing your boring life to my facinating one." James just threw a pillow at me.
So, there you have it. The beginning of James and Lily. Would you like me to continue to the dinnertime scene? I can't hear yooouuuu! Nope, I still can't hear you. I might as well stop. Oh! I hear it now. It's very faint but at least someone seems to enjoy my story (all of you should you daft idiots!). I'm kidding of course. I kid because I love. Contnuing on to the dinnertime scene...
Ah, dinnertime. What a wonderful time to be at, especially to have some entertainment by a certain, red-head, who is going to embarass herself in front of the whole school and her professors. She was hating me throughout the day, shooting glares at me whenever she had the chance. She broke a quill once, as if demonstrating the fact of what she's going to do to me once she graduates. She believes that she'll never be with James after graduating. We'll see. We'll see.
There was the usual chatter of noise as James, Remus, Peter and I entered the Great hall. We saw Lily sitting in her usual place with her friends, looking extremely angry. Her friends on the other hand was a different story. They looked excited and gushing with giggliness. I smiled and shuddered a bit. I hate giggling. It was just too annoying and got on my nerves a lot. They should be banned one day. I will make that dream happen, that is my goal.
Anywhoo, on to the rest of the story. Where was I? Oh yes, I was thinking it was going to be very interesting what Lily would say. Lily in a million years would never express her feelings outward as so. I was beginning to wonder what Lily was planning to say. Before tucking in, I stood up for everyone's attention. The professors were shouting but I ignored them.
"Attention everyone! I would just like to intro-"
"I LOVE YOU SIRI!!" Everyone laughed and I chuckled, bowing slilghtly.
"Yes, yes. There's always enough of that but not now. Thank you though. But please, let me continue. I would just like to introduce you to Miss Lily Evans who has a very special announcement to make." I stepped down as Lily reluctantly stepped up on the table.
"You are dead Black." She whispered to me.
"Ah ah ah. Rule #2." I sang to her. Lily gave a face of disgust before looking at everyone.
"First of all, I would just like to say that Black is a full-fledged pig-headed idiot." Everyone laughed as I went red in the face, slapping her on the leg.
"Get on with it!" I hissed at her. Lily smugly smiled and looked at everyone. She took in a deep breath...and just waited. Waited for what, I have no clue. I slapped her leg once more, impatient. Everyone was staring and waiting. Some were angry. Lily glared at me then cleared her throat.
"I would just like to say that I...I l-"
"Blast it woman! Get on with it!" Lily placed her hands on her hips and stared squarely at me.
"Well, if you stop interrupting me then maybe I can!" I grumbled under my breath as I felt defeated for an odd reason. Of course, my fan girls glared at Lily. Ah, the wonders of fame.
"Ok, what I meant to say was that I love James Potter." There was silence, everyone was staring, shocked. Of course they would be shocked. For the past six years, all from Lily's mouth was how daft Potter was, or how horny Potter was, or how she hated Potter with venom. Potter this, Potter that. It's no wonder rumors were that she truly did love James Potter instead of hate.
Whispers broke out of course as soon as Lily stepped down.
"Are you happy now? This was absolutely stupid and a complete waste of time." She said with a bored look on her face.
"You were embarassed. That was the key point here."
"I was not embarassed!" Lily said hotly at me. She was red in the face which I would take it as blushing. How was I supposed to know that her cheeks become red when she gets angry?
"You're blushing." I noted out.
"I am not blushing! Stop pointing out accusations towards me!" Professor McGonagall stood up angrily and glared at James and I.
"MR. BLACK! MR. POTTER!" I groaned. Lily smirked at me but I arched a brow towards and Lily's smirk had faded. Her eyes held something. Like...fear. It read one of those 'do I have to' type of looks.
"Professor McGonagall." She called out, staring at me skeptically but then turning her head. "I'm afraid that Mr. Black and Mr. Potter had no part in this. It was all of my doing." Professor McGonagall looked flustered as she sat down slowly.
"But then Miss Evans, surely you couldn't possibly...I mean, what are the odds...it's not possible..." Her voice trailed off. Dumbledore chuckled as he patted McGonagall on the hand.
"Now now Minerva. Things do change. Obviously, true love can turn up unexpectedly and can make people do strange things." Still looking flustered, McGonagall nodded her head. I think she was still unable to register the idea. I had to laugh at this.
"I don't know what seems to be so amusing Mr. Black but I suggest that you should close your mouth but I make it gone!" I stared shocked. "Minerva" never made threats and this was a first.
"Why, Professor McGonagall! Was that a threat?" For once, McGonagall was speechless and embarassed so she remained silent. I knew she was thinking dark thoughts about me.
"Lily! Is this true or are you pulling our legs?" One of the fan girls of James asked.
"Of course it's true!" I said cheerfully. "Why else would Lily express her feelings so?" Fortunately, these girls were daft and automatically believed me, probably because I was just too sexy to disagree with.
Lily rolled her eyes at me and crossed her arms.
"Sirius Black, you are impossible." I just grinned.
Well, there you have it. The dinner scene. It's amazing what love can do to people. Technically though, Lily wasn't "in love" with James at the time but I hope you know what point I'm trying to get across here.
Stay tuned for more next chapter. There's going to be a funny scene. Fortunately, I took James's invisibility cloak so I get to stalk everyone and narrate it to you readers. You know you love me.

Safiya Femi: Haha, I tried. Sirius Black is great, ishn't he? -flashes smile- Just picture him with a cheesy grin and there you have my Sirius Black in this story. I love him so much here. -drools- I'm so odd. Well, review!

"Well, excuse me oh-great-pig-headed-one." She said sarcastically. I had to let that one go, for now. It was all part of a good cause though it make me a little irritated. Honestly, Evans was such a spoiled little brat sometimes.
"If you're going to insult us, then I'm afraid we're going to take this to the professors, namely the Headmaster as well." Lily only smirked at us, amusement flashing in her eyes. She wants amusement, we'll give her amusement.
"I take it they're going to believe you?" James then stepped forward with an equally looking smug face as Lily's.
"Not us, Remus." Ha, I knew she's be terrified. Allow me to clarify what we mean. You see, Remus is a prefect and he's the sensible, honest one. Besides that fact, he's a prefect. Everyone knows that the professors always believe prefects. That's why they have chosent those people to be prefects. Remus happens to be one of the so-called "lucky" few. Well, he's lucky to us but that's it.
Another good thing about Remus is that he somewhat agrees with my plan of getting James and Lily together. Lily looked defeated after we told her that Remus was going to tell. She sighed and uncrossed her arms.
"Alright, what do you want?" She said in an irritated tone.
"I thought you'd never ask, James?" James stepped forward and cleared his throat.
"You're to be my love slave."
"What?!?" Lily blowed out with that fiery temper of hers. Spitfire of course, which James absolutely adores.
"Rule # 1, do not speak unless the master says so." Lily glared at me.
"I will speak whenever I please." I shrugged my shoulders and stared at James who then nodded, as if giving permission for Lily to speak and ignoring what Lily had said. "I refuse to become a love slave to you." Typical of Lily to refuse.
"That, or the professors." James sung out. Lily closes her eyes and ponders for a moment.
"Fine, what do you want me to do?"
"What do you want me to do, Master." I corrected her. Lily sighs.
"What do you want me to do...Master?" She stared at me with such hatred. James smiled happily.
"Kiss the Master." James said calmly. Lily growled under her breath and quickly kissed James on the cheek.
"What is that?" I said indignantly. "That wasn't even a kiss!"
"He never said on the lips." She shot back at me. Clever, are we?
"Rule #2, do not talk to the Master's friends rudely." I nodded to Lily in a "see? you shouldn't" sort of way. Lily only ignored me.
"Kiss the Master on the lips." James said, trying again. Lily attempts to avoid any physical contact except for the lips because she gave a quick peck to James on the lips. We all sighed with impatience. Only James seemed to enjoy it.
"At least she's kissing me." James said confidently. I only roll my eyes.
"Boredom. Make her do something." I whined. Lily seemed to be happy that we don't seem to like what she's doing. James squatted a hand at me. I slapped it hard. As he was rubbing his hand, I snapped my fingers. "I know! Dinnertime, I wnat you to stand up on the Gryffindor table and confess your love to the Master." Lily looked horrified.
"Do I have to?" I nodded and gave her a stern look. "Fine." She growled at me and then turned to go to her next class.
"Ah, you forgot something." James called out. Lily stalked back and kissed James square on the lips.
"Happy?"
"Very. But I was talking about your transfiguration text book." He lifted the book up. We all laughed as Lily snatched the book from James' hand.
"Idiot. Sod off."
"Rule #3, do not insult the master." She shot a glare at us once more before leaving.
"That, I must say, was entertaining. She'll fall in love with you soon Prongs."
"Do you have a life, Padfoot, or do you just enjoy being entertained by mine?" James joked at me. I shrugged my shoulders.
"Just comparing your boring life to my facinating one." James just threw a pillow at me.
So, there you have it. The beginning of James and Lily. Would you like me to continue to the dinnertime scene? I can't hear yooouuuu! Nope, I still can't hear you. I might as well stop. Oh! I hear it now. It's very faint but at least someone seems to enjoy my story (all of you should you daft idiots!). I'm kidding of course. I kid because I love. Contnuing on to the dinnertime scene...
Ah, dinnertime. What a wonderful time to be at, especially to have some entertainment by a certain, red-head, who is going to embarass herself in front of the whole school and her professors. She was hating me throughout the day, shooting glares at me whenever she had the chance. She broke a quill once, as if demonstrating the fact of what she's going to do to me once she graduates. She believes that she'll never be with James after graduating. We'll see. We'll see.
There was the usual chatter of noise as James, Remus, Peter and I entered the Great hall. We saw Lily sitting in her usual place with her friends, looking extremely angry. Her friends on the other hand was a different story. They looked excited and gushing with giggliness. I smiled and shuddered a bit. I hate giggling. It was just too annoying and got on my nerves a lot. They should be banned one day. I will make that dream happen, that is my goal.
Anywhoo, on to the rest of the story. Where was I? Oh yes, I was thinking it was going to be very interesting what Lily would say. Lily in a million years would never express her feelings outward as so. I was beginning to wonder what Lily was planning to say. Before tucking in, I stood up for everyone's attention. The professors were shouting but I ignored them.
"Attention everyone! I would just like to intro-"
"I LOVE YOU SIRI!!" Everyone laughed and I chuckled, bowing slilghtly.
"Yes, yes. There's always enough of that but not now. Thank you though. But please, let me continue. I would just like to introduce you to Miss Lily Evans who has a very special announcement to make." I stepped down as Lily reluctantly stepped up on the table.
"You are dead Black." She whispered to me.
"Ah ah ah. Rule #2." I sang to her. Lily gave a face of disgust before looking at everyone.
"First of all, I would just like to say that Black is a full-fledged pig-headed idiot." Everyone laughed as I went red in the face, slapping her on the leg.
"Get on with it!" I hissed at her. Lily smugly smiled and looked at everyone. She took in a deep breath...and just waited. Waited for what, I have no clue. I slapped her leg once more, impatient. Everyone was staring and waiting. Some were angry. Lily glared at me then cleared her throat.
"I would just like to say that I...I l-"
"Blast it woman! Get on with it!" Lily placed her hands on her hips and stared squarely at me.
"Well, if you stop interrupting me then maybe I can!" I grumbled under my breath as I felt defeated for an odd reason. Of course, my fan girls glared at Lily. Ah, the wonders of fame.
"Ok, what I meant to say was that I love James Potter." There was silence, everyone was staring, shocked. Of course they would be shocked. For the past six years, all from Lily's mouth was how daft Potter was, or how horny Potter was, or how she hated Potter with venom. Potter this, Potter that. It's no wonder rumors were that she truly did love James Potter instead of hate.
Whispers broke out of course as soon as Lily stepped down.
"Are you happy now? This was absolutely stupid and a complete waste of time." She said with a bored look on her face.
"You were embarassed. That was the key point here."
"I was not embarassed!" Lily said hotly at me. She was red in the face which I would take it as blushing. How was I supposed to know that her cheeks become red when she gets angry?
"You're blushing." I noted out.
"I am not blushing! Stop pointing out accusations towards me!" Professor McGonagall stood up angrily and glared at James and I.
"MR. BLACK! MR. POTTER!" I groaned. Lily smirked at me but I arched a brow towards and Lily's smirk had faded. Her eyes held something. Like...fear. It read one of those 'do I have to' type of looks.
"Professor McGonagall." She called out, staring at me skeptically but then turning her head. "I'm afraid that Mr. Black and Mr. Potter had no part in this. It was all of my doing." Professor McGonagall looked flustered as she sat down slowly.
"But then Miss Evans, surely you couldn't possibly...I mean, what are the odds...it's not possible..." Her voice trailed off. Dumbledore chuckled as he patted McGonagall on the hand.
"Now now Minerva. Things do change. Obviously, true love can turn up unexpectedly and can make people do strange things." Still looking flustered, McGonagall nodded her head. I think she was still unable to register the idea. I had to laugh at this.
"I don't know what seems to be so amusing Mr. Black but I suggest that you should close your mouth but I make it gone!" I stared shocked. "Minerva" never made threats and this was a first.
"Why, Professor McGonagall! Was that a threat?" For once, McGonagall was speechless and embarassed so she remained silent. I knew she was thinking dark thoughts about me.
"Lily! Is this true or are you pulling our legs?" One of the fan girls of James asked.
"Of course it's true!" I said cheerfully. "Why else would Lily express her feelings so?" Fortunately, these girls were daft and automatically believed me, probably because I was just too sexy to disagree with.
Lily rolled her eyes at me and crossed her arms.
"Sirius Black, you are impossible." I just grinned.
Well, there you have it. The dinner scene. It's amazing what love can do to people. Technically though, Lily wasn't "in love" with James at the time but I hope you know what point I'm trying to get across here.
Stay tuned for more next chapter. There's going to be a funny scene. Fortunately, I took James's invisibility cloak so I get to stalk everyone and narrate it to you readers. You know you love me.
