Lily could hear James singing and dancing in the common room even after the portrait hole had been closed. She leaned up against the wall and pressed her hands to her lips, stifling a giggle that threatened to escape and blow that fact that she had stopped in the hallway. She took a couple moments, to calm herself down, though she was still jittery. In order to try and calm herself, or at least get rid of some of the sudden energy she had, she started skipping down the corridor, hair bouncing behind her, a small smile on her face.<br/><br/>She skipped right on past Black, heard him as her a question, saw his face fill with sudden dread, but didn't respond to it as it didn't entirely click in her brain as to what she saw. She just continued her way to the library, bouncing in on through the door and over to the table where Riley sat. She climbed onto the table, sitting on it in front of Riley with her legs crossed. She reached foreward, grasped Riley's book, and slammed it shut know what she was about to say wold be more interesting than the book.. "I have a date with Potter."<br/><br/>Sirius went slowly down the corridor, pondering over his conversation with Riley. Now that he thought about it, had she been flirting with him? He had noticed the winks and the staring of course, but he'd been so caught up in her eyes and smile and conversation, that he hadn't really thought about it until now. He shook his head. Nah. That was stupid. No way would Riley flirt with him of all people, she was much too pretty and smart for him.<br/><br/>As he was passed by a bouncing redhead, Sirius's face got confused. Why was Evans so happy? Oh Merlin... "Evans? What's got you smiling like that?... Evans...?" But she didn't appear to hear him as she continued on her way. He blinked, and bolted down the hallway, hoping James wasn't hexed too badly. Hadn't Riley said she wouldn't hex him? This was bad... He shouted the password before he even got to the portrait and it swung open. He dived up into the hole, and ran the length of the small tunnel to the common room where he knew he was going to find something he dreaded. "Prongs! Are you ok? Did Evans get you?"
