Just do it, Evans. Right now. "Erm, James? Love?" Lily tapped his shoulder lightly, while whispering.

He loved the sound of his name rolling off her tongue. And love. God, did this feel right. Too bad it was all a prank, he had to keep reminding himself. "Yeah?" he asked in an equally low voice, looking in her beautiful emerald eyes.

"I... You'll sit next to me at dinner... tonight. Won't you?" She looked up at his equally deep hazel eyes. "I mean. I hope you would. I'd... I'd really want you to."

What in the world.... He wasn't complaining, but where the hell was this coming from?! He liked it. God, this was torture. She was still playing along to a prank, nothing more.
"Of course I will," he said, nodding with a smile. "I'll be there."
"I still say they're lying," Marly said quietly to Sirius, glancing at the pair occasionally.

"Good," She replied breathlessly, ignoring Marly. "Because this... this feels really... real to me. You know?"

"I just can't believe this is happening," Sirius screwed up his mouth as if he'd bitten into something rotten. "This is as ridiculous as...as...as Slytherin winning the House Cup!"

"Real?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. Was she saying what he thought she was. "What do you mean real? Are you asking me out, Lily Evans?" he asked, his cocky side perking up a bit as he ruffled his hair and smiled cheekily.
Marly laughed, "Exactly. Though, right now..." she said, glancing at them, but not wanting to stare. "Maybe they aren't? Merlin, I'm confused."

"I... possibly," Lily murmured, glancing down and blushing. "If you stop being a prat, then it is a definite yes. I'm.. asking you out."

Another face-to-palm endeavour for Sirius. "This...is...not...happening. I'm going to wake up...right...now!" He paused. "Marly--pinch me, please?"

"Well, this is certainly a shock," he said, laughing. "You know, I think I'll have to think about it. I mean, you put me through so much torture..." he laughed, then leaned into her ear. "Yes," he whispered.
She pinched him in the arm, looking at the two. "Nope, it's really happening, Black."
Marly cleared her throat, "So we were right. You two were lying," she said rather loudly, breaking them up.

Lily rolled her eyes at Sirius' out burst. "One second, love," Lily held a finger to his lips before getting up and sitting right next to Sirius. "Sirius? Can I ask you a question?" She asked sweetly. "I mean, since you're James' brother and all."

"Oh for the love of Merlin--what is it you want?" he glared at her, his dark eyes aflame.

"I just wanted to know if it was alright with you that I asked out James. I'm asking for your permission."

"Oh, speaking of," Marly said, more so to herself as she whirled around at James, pulling her wand out. He put his hands up.
"Mars! What the hell?!"
"Hurt her and you die," she growled. "Clear, Potter? I swear on Merlin if you hurt this girl, you're a dead man."
"Crystal, Mckinnon. Now put the wand down," he said, pushing it down. She put it away and smiled at him, sweetly.

"You really want my permission?" He raised an eyebrow. "I mean, really? You're serious?"
