a surprise for james

The incident that tore lily and James apart from one another had happened near the first of November and she had done all that she could to regain his trust. She kept her distance stayed as far away from snape as possible and tried to focus on helping others instead of being selfish. She spent a lot of time with Alice who was close to the boys and even made a new gryffindor friend shinyu during the seasons first snow.
Finally lily was starting to feel like herself again. She thought of sending James a letter to ask him to winter ball as she was sure she could bring back the light in his eyes. That's when her good friend miya of ravenclaw house gave her an idea in potions class. Lily was a fabulous potioneer and loved the idea instantly. Nous told her to conjure up a smoke forming potion that worked well off the back of a broom. She informed lily that when she was having a hard time making up with her boyfriend lance she wrote him a message in the sky and when he saw it he finally warmed back up to her and they made up. Lily ended up practicing the spell for a week. She tested it out in the snowy air until she formed the right consistency.
So here she was. She dressed herself in gryffindor colors before pulling on a jacket and gold cap and headed out to the pitch. Mounting on her broom she had dipped the end in the potion before mounting giving it time to settle so when she finally began to rise into the air the back of the broom looked beautiful as the sparkling red smoke started to swirl off into the brisk morning air. It was freezing once she got up above the pitch the posts were all iced over. She had to narrow her bright green eyes trying to find the best position where he would be able to see it from the castle as well as the rest of. the entire staff and students including snape. She had chosen red the same color as her hair so everyone would know it was lily.
Gripping the. broom with frozen fingers she began her ascent using her skill to. zoom around scribing "im sorry james I love you" straight into a clear spot in the sky.
When she finished she turned to hover in the air grinning at her work. oh she would surely catch hell from any girl that fancied james for this but fav
Facing off voldemort himself would be worth it for james.
She started to zip around making her way to the ground but her broom started to ice and she began to lose control a@ it glitched less then halfway down. from the castle all would be seen was the bright red end of her broom falling like a comet from the sky.

||| It would have been about the first of novemeber as November started on Aug 18, then Dec starts on Sept first, so it has only been about 3 weeks since this happened. I'm giving you a heads up here and giving you a chance to tweak or hold off on your post for a while to a lot more time. I normally keep OOC off IC, but a friendly heads up - She may want something quieter than to just break his heart and then make such a public request to the ball. Start slow you have 3 years to make this happen. Have her try to rekindle her friendship with his friends. Try just having a civil conversation with James and warm him up to a friendship before begging him to the dance. Just a friendly suggestion. I have no idea how Kody will have Jjames react and I may be completely off target here. My thinking is if you cheated on me, then didn't speak to me for 3 weeks and then suddenly spray painted an invite on the wall of the school I would say no to begin with because nothing has healed. I don't want to be your friend let along involved with you. But something so public is likely to come across slightly...erm, stalker-y. It just my view if you want to post to stand, say so in responce and I'll delete was OOC here. |

Agreed after thinking of that perspective put it in dead threads what a waste of being creative lol
