"Or..." Sirius grinned right on back at her. "I could just as Evans." He stuck his tongue out at her and flicked a lock of her hair away from her face, not liking how it had blocked one of those pretty blue eyes. He stared at her, and got lost. He almost couldn't bring himself to look away from her, and it was very hard to do then, when he turned his head to look up at the clock on the wall. He heaved a great sigh and rose from his seat.<br/><br/>Clapping Riley on the back gently and in a very friendly, playful manner, Sirius looked back down at her, grabbing his bag up from the table. "I'd stay, but I really should get back and see if Prongs has discovered Evans on the windowsill. You'd think, the way he watches her, he would have noticed by now that that's where she hides. And I really want to see his face when she comes out, it's going to be priceless. But I'll see ya soon, aye Walters? You know...." He wandered for the door and then turned his head back to look at her. "You're not so bad... when you're not being somber. Keep smiling, it's pretty..." He let the words slip out before he could stop them and quickly retreated from the library before she could take them in. He promptly turned and banged his head on the wall a few times. "Stupid, stupid, stupid, now she's gonna think you're some sort of deranged bugger." He sighed, and started his way back to the common room.<br/><br/>Lily let out a very small mixture of a squeal and yelp when he hugged her. She actually relished the feeling of his arms, strong and tight around her, and his scent.... it was lovely really. But then he let go and it was over almost before it had begun. She smiled at him shyly still, her mouth still shut, but her eyes said it all. They sparkled happily, showing that she wasn't just doing this because she wanted to get back at him for the kiss, but rather because the time had finally come, for her to at last, give him a chance.<br/><br/>Pondering it over, she'd never really had a date before, at least, not one that didn't involve going in a group with a bunch of others on their dates. Most of the boys were too scared that Potter would hex them into oblivion if he found out that they had chanced to ask out Lily Evans, the girl Potter had had an unspoken male claim of first dibs should any dating be done since the first feast of their first year was halfway through. Truth be told, she was actually kind of giddy and excited over it.<br/><br/>When his lips touched her hair, she just about melted as her instincts took over and told her she had turned into chocolate and his lips were adding fire to her. Her smile was bright, as she tugged back the curtains of the window, and slipped her bottom off the edge of the windowsill so she fell to land on her feet on the floor below. She crossed to the table and picked up her wand, turning her head to look back at him as she made her way to the portrait hole. Time had passed quickly, and she needed to get Riley before curfew hit.
