Uh...I'm sort of speechless right now...Both the quotes eagleanimagus used are the ones that I was laughing at. Lily's gutter mind, haha.
So they got together. My question is whether it's going to last or not. You can never be too sure. Anyways, post soon!

Me_Hermy:1 of the Same Speechless is good. LOL As well as smiling and laughing. Hahaha, well, it was more of my dirty mind then Lily's but oh well. Hahaha. You'll to wait and see what happnes next. Thanks for the reply.
ChOco Yes, they kissed (you're very observant. LOL) I'm glad you thought it was unexpected and entertaining. I would imagine they feel awkward. Thanks for the review.
Layla Once again, speechless is good. Hahahaha, I had much fun writing those qoutes. Again, it was more of my gutter mind. LOL Yes, they got together (another observent fan) Hahaha, you're question will be answered in the next chapter. Thanks for the reply.
DD's-man-through-and-through Yay new reader. Thanks for the reply.
eagleanimagous Hahaha, I like EXCELLENT. LOL Correction, she was trying to keep from having dirty thoughts, but its the same thing. I had fun with both those lines. I was kind of confused, who were you talking about when you said 'she isn't going to?" Anyway, thanks for the reply.
Kelso2010 I had a lot of fun writing that chapter, so I'm glad you enjoyed it. I liked the flying scene as well, that was fun to write. Thanks for the reply.

Wow. I am with Buckbeak on this one. I think this was my favorite chapter. Everything was perfect. I definatley think you are one of the best fanfiction writers on this site. Those scenes were PERFECT. To a 't'! The broom scene was totally wonderful and a great twist. I definatley knew something would happen when it was over. It would be like fighting the inevitable. That was probably the best uhm...sexual scene I have read recently. It was so passionate on different levels. I loveedddd it. The ending akwardness was adorable, I cant wait to see their reaction in the morning to each other lol. Greatt job, the first real kiss like that for a couple is always a great turning point and you described it perfectly. Please write more soon, you have got me going crazy over your writing!

amanda1212 I don't know if I would say everything was perfect, but it feels to be complimented any way. LOL Aww, Again, I don't know if I would say I was the best, but again, I'll take the compliment. Hahaha I really enjoyed writing the flying scene. Hahaha, of course something was going to happen afterwards, it was...required. Thanks I had tons of fun writing the scene. I tried to make passion vary so it wasn't boring. Hahaha, of course there had to be awkwardness. You're reply has me smiling ear to ear. Thanks for reading, I'm glad you liked it.
JSB 073 Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Amazing, huh? Yep, I was thinking it was about time I set the wheels in motion. A little surprise never hurt anyone. LOL Thanks again for the reply.
eagleanimagous That's what I figured, but I wasn't sure.
Shadowfox99 I don't think I've ever had my work been called strange, but okay. It matches the writer I guess. LOL Unfortunately, you can't speed time up and will have to wait, but I hope you find the next chapter worth it. Thanks for reviewing.

Hey!
Sorry I'm so late to reply

I've just had so many projects due for school. Anywho, that chapter completely took my breath away. Are you by chance a writer from day to day? Cause if you aren't you should consider becoming one lol. That was completely and utterly amazing! Wow.. I'm not sure what else to say because I don't want to say something that will diminish it in the slightest by not picking the right words

. That.. shall we say 'acwardness' made me burst out laughing, and at the same time praying I didn't just read that hahahaha. The broom ride was captivating and stunning! Even the lead up to it was.. with Lily being afraid of flying, not flying before, even her silence at James words was so incharacter and extremely well-written. As were (of course

) the romance scene once they get off the broom. It flowed so well, and didn't feel rushed. And as always thanks so much for the PM! I'm off to re-read your story

.
Once again breathtaking chapter!

and i have been trying to write a fanfic.and i think that i just owed you and explination.but anyway...the last couple of chapters have been grade and i will just post feed back to the last one which is amazing really really amazing.them flying together was soo cute and james is such a sweetheart. it reminded me of the movie titanic where jack is holding rose in the front of the ship and she has her arms spread out in front of her.if you havn't seen the movie then umm...
forget what i said but anyway the ending*smiles mischievously* wow! they kissed.actually...they did more then that.hahaha.ok sooo i can't wait till the next chapter.please update soon.

Pheonixgirl No, you're not the worst reader. LOL I've been busy myself. I'm glad you enjoyed the chapters. I really liked the flying scene as well. Yes, I have seen the movie Titanic, I loved that scene. Yep, they kissed haha. Thanks for the reply, even if it was delayed.
ConnieBoo03 Yay, New reader. Hahaha, Thanks I'm glad you liked them. I try to make it as real as possible (though I don't always succeed) Tanks for the compliment and review.
Breanna_Justine_Potter Yay, another new reader. LOL I'm glad you like it. I'm really glad how my characters turned out, and I did try to make them as they would be in real (or Harry Potter) life. You gotta have humor. LOL I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for the review.
Lily+James=Forever Yet another new reader. Hahaha. Thanks. I'm glad you liked the chapter.
Ginny<33 Hahaha, don't worry about it. I understand. I'm glad it took your breath away (but you're breathing fine now right? Haha) Nope. I'm just a fanfic writer (though I do have some original stories) Aww, thanks for the compliment. Amazing huh? Hahaha, Wow. I know exactly what you mean, that there's just not a good enough word to even do justice to the persons work, I just never thought I would have someone say that about one of my stories. LOL Hahaha of course awkwardness is a must. Hahaha I have a gift for that (making people wish they hadn't just read something Haha) Aww I don't know if I would say it was captivating and stunning, but it really makes me happy that you think it was. Again aww. LOL Thanks so much for the amazing and oh so generous review.

Great chapter! Wow, I love this story. The moonlight flight sounded so nice. I especially liked the way you described the stars, that they seemed so close that Lily could just reach out and grab them.
I wonder what will happen the next time Lily and James see each other. Will Lily be mad? Hope not! They're so cute together ^^
Can't wait till the next chapter

Jun 25 2007, 04:20 PM
Oh, that was so sad! It was all so well written, and I could so feel it all down in my stomach too! Haha. But again, sad! Lily totally wants him, but then don’t want him at the same time! (What’s wrong with her?) That must really have hurt James, and now everything is so awkward between them! I had hoped the conversation would turn out in another way than it did, but now you’ve just kept us a bit longer… But it’s actually kind of mature of James to start to talk to Lily about what happened, and everything … I just hated the outcome of the conversation. And their friends are so stupid! Privacy thanks!

Jun 25 2007, 04:49 PM
That was really depressing. It wasn't a mistake. You twio like each other! Sad. *sniffle* But things will change eventually. I feel bad for the both of them. And Sirius was being funny about James' dad staying away from his girl! Post soon!
<333
TaraLynn
Jun 25 2007, 05:01 PM
GryffindorBabexhott I'm sorry it was depressing, but I had to make it depressing if I'm going to make them get together the same way they did in the original. Yes, they do like each other, but it would be any fun if they just got together without any conflict. Hahaha, Sirius is a weird one, isn't he? LOL Thanks for the review. I'm glad you liked the chapter.
happy-potte Maybe I should start handing out tissues, haha. Thanks, I was hoping to do a good job on this chapter and I must say I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Lily's just confused, she needs time to come around. Everyone was hoping the conversation ended differently, but as I said before, the outcome was necessary for the rest of the story. I totally agree that their friends should respect their privacy, but all they knew on the situation was the Lily and James had stayed up late so of course they were going to eavesdrop to get all the details. Thanks for the review, I'm glad you liked it.
timeturner I'm glad you liked it. I apologize once again for the wait, hopefully I'll have the next chapter up sooner. Thanks for the review.
Layla
Jun 25 2007, 07:17 PM
Wow, if you could do that without a beta...then I'm a little afraid to see what you can do with one.
Lily is a very well-developed character in this story. I can distinctively see the two different sides of her: the one that wants James...and the side that doesn't. I may be completely wrong about this, but maybe she's a little afraid to get into a relationship with him. She doesn't want to get hurt? Her dialogue seemed to convey her emotions very well.
James...he was very understanding, but it's obvious that he's pretty crushed. Especially with that last line.
I laughed a lot when Lily began talking about the "south end" of James Potter--with everyone listening outside. I'm actually sort of surprised that the whole thing concerning her virginity didn't come up again. Well, I guess it was forgotten in the moment.
Anyhoo, great chapter. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!

Jun 25 2007, 10:41 PM
Aw.. That was sad. After all that happened... she says it's a mistake. That's what her head says, but in her heart she knows the truth and it's for her to be with him. It wasn't a mistake.. there was passion between them that was strong. And even though James seems cool with it.. he's not. It's just so sad. *tears*
Love it. Post soon.
You're writing is incredible.

Wow! I liked this chapter, even though it was really depressing. Especially since the last chapter, I have been thinking that now they would be together, but nooooooo, they aren't

. I had to re-read the story before I read the new chapter, and I have to say the one in which they kiss, is very well-written. I could feel my heart flipping, I don't know how to explain but it felt like it was me. Great story, and please don't keep us waiting too long, I want to know what happens with those two. It will be funny to see the future akward moments.

Jun 26 2007, 02:24 PM
DD's-man-through-and-through Awww, I don't like when my chapters are depressing, though the way that this chapter ended was necessary if I'm going to end it (or at least have Lily and James get together) the way I want. Now, c'mon, would I really make it that easy? After one completely spur of the moment snogging session Lily would declare her undying love for James? I feel so privilaged when people say that they feel like they were the ones being kissed because I've read stories like that and they are always written so magnificently. With any luck, I'll have the next chapter up sometime soon, now that I can type chapters on my new laptop.
Harry and Ginny 4 eva Thanks for the review, and don't worry, the awkward moments between Lily and James are just beginning.
JSB 073 Again, another sad reviewer. Well, she blurted out that it was a mistake, but then she kind of corrected herself saying that 'imistake' wasn't the right word. Yes, the inevitable choice between her head and her heart, don't worry, she'll see the light someday. James just wants what he believes Lily wants, though he would really like to be with her, he's willing to wait as long as possible, because he loves her and would do anything to make her happy. Incredible, huh? LOL Thanks for the reply.
Layla Hahaha, I would tell you to go back and reread chapter 11 to see what I could do with a beta, but you don't have the original to compare it to. LMAO Aww, thanks, I'm always a little worried how I'm doing with my characters, like they start out one way in the beginning, but later on do things that aren't neccessarily believable for the certain character. Hahaha, you've hit the nose right on the button, but there's a very distinct reason of why she's afraid to give her heart away just yet.Let the speculation began. HAHA Again, thanks, I've been going over my stories, I realize that I need to work on the dialogue and how characters act a bit more. Yeah, James is crushed, but as I mentioned, he'll do anything to make Lily happy.
LOL, I would definitely be embarrased if I was talking about some guy's privates and my friends were outside. Hahaha. Well, as I said, James was more concerned with Lily and wasn't really going to bring it up, and Sirius and Remus were busy convincing the Emma and Cassie that Sirius is an air head and Mike wasn't some weirdo. Hahaha, so yeah, I would say it was forgotten in the moment. Thanks for the review. I"m glad you liked the chapter.

Jun 26 2007, 10:38 PM
Excellent chapter, but me saying that is useless since every chapter always is. I love how you drag out their relashionship. Just cause of one kiss, doesnt mean Lily is hopping into his arms. If they were to be all lovey dovey from now on, that wouldnt make the best story. That longing for them to be together always makes it worthwhile to read.
Also when Lily said she wasnt a virgin anymore, was this something that you've mentioned before? Because if it wasnt then I am expecting thats going to play a role somewhere else in the story. But also I noticed the girls didnt react to it so I am thinking I just missed something?
Otherwise the way you've played out the characters was great. I definatley cannot wait for another post....

amanda1212 Aww, thanks, that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. LOL Of course I couldn't just make them be together rigth away. And you're correct, one kiss isn't going to make Lily fall into James' arms. No, I didn't mention Lily's nonvirginity before, it doesn't really play a role, per say to the rest of the story, but I knew that I had it in the other version (but the scene was something totally different) and just figured I'd add it in this one, plus, Lily screaming that she wasn't a virgin was a great way to add to her humiliation. The girls didn't react because they already knew.
Padfoot, Prongs and Moony Thanks for posting, nope Lily still won't go out with James. Hahaha, you can't really blame the others, they were curious. Aww, thanks. I'm glad you think so. Thanks for reviewing, I'm glad you liked the chapter.
ConnieBoo03 Hahaha, James the male with all the parts, that's what I'm going to refer to him as from now on. LOL JMW/AP for short. LMAO What was Lily thinking, that's a good question. Hahaha Thanks for the reply, I'm glad you liked it.

That was quite a diversion. I cannot believe that they're still questioning whether one likes the other...when they lip locked in front of the whole room. Emma's a great friend--I was feeling the tension in the room when Lily fell into James.
Back to Lily...she's acting...odd? Well, no, she's not...she just seems like she wants things to be back to normal between her and James. We'll see if that happens.
Oh, and I applaud you on the speedy update!

And they just stayed there. There's a connection!! Come on! But extremely nice diversion. Out of the blue and they weren't going out. And then Emma and Lily talked while James and Remus did. And Emma and Remus fancy each other and felt the same way about the kiss! It's soo cute!! I'll read your one-shot soon. I've got to go to bed. And also, I thought I'd might tell you, your story "Falling for You" was deleted off the site. And I really liked that one, so if you have time, can you put it back up?
Love it. Post soon!

Jul 11 2007, 06:29 AM
Wow... Emma and Remus! At least something’s going well. It’s all just so awkward between James and Lily. It’s so sad! But then when she fell and he caught her...! Lily felt something! I just know it. Otherwise she’d gotten up at once, but she didn’t! But what I liked most was Emma kissing Remus. As Lily said; it was going beyond the duty of being a friend, but it was were sweet of her. And she probably just used it as a excuse to kiss Remus

Uh, now James and Lily leave Remus and Emma alone, they’re left alone too... hmm. That will be either very awkward or they will move on OR (what I hope for) get together

Just hoping! Wow, really great, and now I’m off to read your one-short to see what’s happening in James’ room between Emma and Remus! Yeah! Please update soon! I want to know what’s happening!
