Alrighty everyone, here's the second chapter! Thank you everyone for all your lovely reviews! They mean so much to me.

Note: Lucy Weasley is in Slytherin, but she's a second year, NOT a first year. Just a thought.

First a quick character list of the characters who I own, if you want more information on them, or want to use them, please ask me.

List: Zaria Jordan & Karel Jordan (twins), Adair Zabini, Juliet Doran, and Grace Hopper.

Never Gonna Leave This Bed by Maroon 5

So fall down
I need you to trust me
Go easy, don't rush me
Help me out, why don't you help me out?

Wake you up
In the middle of the night to say
I will never walk away again
I'm never gonna leave this bed, oh


I.

He was still unsure as to why the littlest Potter had approached him. Still unsure what to make of her. But it had been a week, and she had barely glanced at him. And he decided to just forget out it.

He had no idea what the next week would bring.

II.

She new he was watching her and she wasn't stupid enough to try something while he was expecting it. Oh no, she spent the week getting to know the people in her house. Learning their secrets, their dreams. Charming them all with her too innocent eyes and bright smile. They couldn't tell her no.

Lily had everyone wrapped around her little finger.

III.

In retrospect, he should have seen it coming. The hat wouldn't have put her in Slytherin if she made rash decisions, if she acted impulsively. He really should have never lowered his guard.

It really shouldn't have been such a shock, but when he saw her sitting at his table in library, Saturday morning; it was all he could do to keep his jaw from dropping.

She sat there, surrounded by 1st years from the other houses, looking oh so innocent. Then she looked up and spotted him in the doorway. And her smile was positively devilish.

He'll never admit it, but when he turned and walked out the door, the urge to flee almost overwhelmed him.

Because that smile had promised something, and he's not sure he wants to know what.

IV.

She's not stupid, she had known that if it was just her sitting at the table he would sit down and ignore her all day.

So she had asked Lucy and Dominique to get some people together for a "study group".

Lorcan, Zaria Jordan and Adair Zabini from Slytherin. Lysander and Karel Jordan from Gryffindor. Juliet Doran from Ravenclaw and Grace Hopper from Hufflepuff. She was now allied with people from all four houses.

And maybe she was to young to be so sneaky, but it doesn't change the fact that she is.

V.

He didn't go back to the library the next Saturday. Of course not. He knew she'd be there with her little group, stealing his spot. He went and sat under a tree next to the black lake. And it was rather peaceful, even if there was more sun than he was used to.

He finished his entire book and managed to forget fiery red head and study groups formed with the sole purpose of pissing him off. At least for one day.

He failed to realize that from where Lily sat in the library, she could see out a window; right to where he was sitting. Oops...

VI.

She had seen him sitting out there under the tree. His hair positively shining in the sun, and he looked so peaceful, sitting out there reading. She almost abandoned her plan right then. Because she almost didn't want to shatter that peace.

But then he looked up, eyes lingering on the sky, on the water; and her resolve strengthened. She would break down all those walls, she would find out what was underneath. Because she saw something, when his walls where down and he thought no one was looking, she saw something that drew her in. And she wanted to find out what.

She wanted to know he could be so peaceful, so resigned about always being by himself.

Because Lily wanted that kind of peace, and she'd do anything to find it.

VII.

He didn't like the looks the littlest Potter was throwing him at dinner Friday evening. It was like she was planning something and was watching him to make sure he did was he supposed to so that the plan would go off without a hitch. It was making him nervous.

He left dinner early.

But then he was sitting in the common room, trying to do some homework, and she kept doing the same thing. Sitting on the couch with the other two Weasley's, Dominique and Lucy. And they where all trying to watch him without being obvious. It was making his skin crawl.

Finally he gave up and went to bed early, because he just couldn't stand having them watching him.

It never occurred to him that they knew about his new reading spot.

VIII.

Saturday morning dawned bright and early and Lily was all but bouncing from excitement. Because she couldn't wait to see how he reacted to his new reading spot being taken.

And again, she wasn't stupid, half of the group was going to go sit outside for a "change in scenery", and Lucy was going to "comnplain" so that some of them would stay in the library at his table. That way he was out of luck.

She was so hopeful, hopeful that this time she'd get a reaction out of him other than wide eyes and a hasty departure. She wanted to break down those walls, to bring him crashing down and to completely lose that cool composure that he wore like a cape. This was going to work.

She never dreamed that he would skip breakfast, that he would get there before they did. Because who skipped breakfast?

IX.

He woke up to silence, and a quick glance at the clock confirmed his suspicions. He had overslept. Breakfast started in in two minutes, everyone else would already be down there. He skips showering in favor of a cleaning charm and then runs.

He's almost to the great hall when he skids to a stop, he really doesn't feel like sitting at the same table as her. Her with those innocent eyes, just waiting for something to happen. Something he knows he isn't going to like. He changes course, choosing instead to drop by the kitchens and grab a muffin and something to snack on later for lunch.

Then he's settling under the tree, shivering slightly. The sun just came up and the ground is still damp.

He has no idea what's about to happen after breakfast, has no idea that his peace is about to be disturbed. If he did, he would run.

X.

They headed to the library as soon as breakfast was over, and she'll admit that not seeing him at breakfast made her a little nervous. So she sped the plan up a little bit. Complaining before they had even sat down.

"Let's go outside and study!" she exclaimed suddenly, injecting childish glee into her voice.

"It's cold outside, Lily. I'm staying inside." Lucy snapped.

"Fine! Stay inside. I'm going outside. Anyone else?" This was the only part that was left to chance, the part that made her nervous. But her fears where unfounded as Lysander, Zaria, Karel, and Grace all nodded and joined her.

They made outside in record time, Lily hurrying them on, feigning enthusiasm to be in the sunshine. And then they where out the doors and victory was singing through her veins and she looked over at the tree and a gasp was torn from her mouth.

He was sitting there. Reading. Eating a muffin. And she felt the blood boiling in her veins. Her face was flushed and she could hear her heart in her ears. How dare he mess up her careful plans by skipping breakfast to come out here early. She means, who even does that? Skip breakfast?

Him.

Her traitorous mind whispers. Him with his hair spun from moonlight that glows in the sun. Him with that blasted calm composure that never flickers.

And with her blood rushing to her face and her vision tinged red she stalks over to where he sits. Oh so calmly. She would break that composure if it was the last thing she did.


BAM! Chapter 2 is done! I'm so proud of it.

So what did you guys think? Does their relationship make sense?

It's hard for me to tell. I just write and if it doesn't make complete sense, oh well.

Hope you guys liked it, I'll try to get the chapter up soon, but I'm not even sure if I'll have access to a computer next week.

But I'll try.

Please review and happy writing
