❝ She had me spellbound all through the night ❞
James didn’t know what possessed him to go to muggle London to a muggle night club and drink. Okay so he knew why. He could go out and not be reminded of Lily, he could enjoy himself without being reminded of the break up and of his heart break. James would be able to just have a good time for a few hours and forget about the crap he had been going through since the break up. He was till not sure why they broke up since they hadn't really talked since they had parted ways.
Carefully he made his way over to the bar and ordered a whiskey. He was out by himself to just let go for the evening. He didn’t want to think about the looming war, he didn't want to think about magic, he didn't want to think about Lily. That was all he thought about as of late. He constantly tried to figure out what happened or what he had done to cause the break up but he couldn't come up with any good reason. He had been on his best behavior or at least he had thought he had been on his best behavior.
It wasn’t long before James was on his fifth drink and starting to feel the effects. His fingers felt slightly numb and his face felt a bit tingly. Tonight was going to be a night he would be amazed if he made it home to his own bed. He would either pass out somewhere or end up in some strange woman's bed.
He made his way out to the dance floor as he moved between the women. It was strange being in muggle London. The thing about muggle London though was that he wasn’t bound to run into people he knew. He could do his own thing and forget about the problems of the wizarding world. He didn’t have to think about the war or his relationship or lack of one. He didn’t have to think about losing those he cared about… he could drink and have a good time. He didn't know any of the names of the women he danced with he just knew they were attractive and at this moment that was all he cared about... that and getting another drink. .

The girl's blonde hair cascaded onto the floor and she kicked her feet a bit. "Just pick a bloody dress and let's go!" her friend huffed, trying not to play dead.[break][break] Lily rolled her eyes, carefully bringing up a little red number to size against her body. This one. It was this one. Legs for days and she wanted to forget everything. Forget James, forget the furthered heartbreak Sev had launched on her, and just... everything else. She said nothing as she changed, taking a moment to admire the plunged neckline of the short red dress. She even turned to the side, admiring the curve of her backside and the trail of silky-smooth legs.[break][break] Pairing it with a pair of black knee-high heeled boots, Lily paused at her own reflection. If anything screamed rebound, this was the outfit.[break][break] Jumping slightly, Lily watched her friend's reflection join her, the girl's wand out and at the ready. "Here. Just one last finishing touch..."[break][break] ----------[break][break] Blonde?[break][break] She'd never pictured herself blonde before, but Lily did have to admit that she liked it. Not to mention the spell had shortened her hair into an easy chin-length style. It would be easy to play with and not so easy to tangle when dancing among the mass of bodies.[break][break] However, their entrance into the club hadn't been the smoothest. Lily and three of her friends had settled down at a table together and she'd taken a minute or two to glance about, only stopped when her gaze fixed on the familiar form of...[break][break] James.[break][break] Merlin, save her.[break][break] She started to drink almost immediately, relieved that he hadn't spotted her yet, if he would at all. But the night had continued to dissolve into drink after drink, her friends frowning when they finally realized what had set her off.[break][break] "Lily," one of them said in a hushed town, hardly able to be heard over the thump of the music, "Maybe we should go?" The expression of worry was clear. Lily was on her fourth drink and her gaze hadn't left James Potter's back the entire night.[break][break] "Mmm," Lily hummed, taking one final swig of her pint, feeling her heart ache when he'd started dancing with all of the different women on the dancefloor. "No, no. You guys go have fun, I'll be fine," Lily noted, waving the bartender over for another drink. Like each other drink, she paid for it immediately, taking another sip. The girls all kind of shrugged then, getting up to go dance or flirt with other boys.[break][break] Before long, Lily honestly couldn't take it anymore. Whether he was attempting to torture her or not, she wasn't having any of it. Not now. Pushing off the seat, heels carried her almost confidently across the floor of the club. When she was close enough to James' back, her palm brushed slowly along his spine until settling at his lower back.[break][break] Lily said nothing, simply reaching out with her other hand to grasp James' arm lightly in an attempt to get him to turn to her.

❝ She had me spellbound all through the night ❞
James had lost himself in dancing, the music carreid him away from his thoughts and the only thing he cared about was the woman in front of him though it wasn't awlays the same woman. It took him a bit of time but he settled on a blond wearing a very tight and very short black dress. He moved towards her and within moments the two were dancing together, she turned her body around so her back was pressed right up against him and he coudn't help but smirk. She really knew how to move and he had a feeling that if this kept up he would be getting very lucky tonight. He moved his hands along her arms and down to her waist as he moved to the music with her. This was the way to forget about Lily and to forget about his heart break. He had girlfriends in the past but none of his break ups had devestated him like this one had. Sure with the other girls he had always been the one that did the breaking up. He had always lost interest in his girlfriends until he had dated Lily. For some reason he felt connected to the fire cracker that was Lily. He hadn't seen the break up coming.. at all.
Now he was here forgetting about the girl he had thought was the love of his life... he had clearly been wrong. Once again he had to force Lily from his mind as he tried to focus on... well he didn't know her name but it was time to focus on her. He bent his neck downward bringing his lips to gently graze her skin earning a small giggle from the girl... she was enjoying the attention as much as he was enjoying giving it. If his attention was on her it wasn't on his ex-girlfriend. He was about to ask her if she wanted to go somewhere more private when he felt someone's hand on his arm. There were two ways this would go... one she had a boyfriend and he was about to get punched or two there was a prettier girl that he could have a better time with. It didn't hurt to take a look at whomever had decided to get his attention.
The moment he turned around he regreted it when he realized who the mystery person was. The hair threw him off for a second but he knew that face... he knew those eyes. His lips dropped open in shock for a moment but he quickly caught himself before pressing them together. "Uhhh" No real words managed to come out... he hadn't spoken to her since she had broken up with him. She had ignored every owl and attempt so he had no idea what he could say to her... especially since he had just been rubbing up on another woman. "You look umm... different" was all he managed to say.He wasn't sure what the correct greeting was when your ex-girlfriend caught you making moves on some strange woman.

She'd only glimpsed the image of his lips on the woman's neck. Briefly, the memory flashed in her own mind, setting her alight and freezing her to the bone all at once.[break][break] Now, holding onto his arm, she couldn't help but let her gaze drift from his form to the form of a rather irritated woman. They'd been interrupted. Her heart dropped into her stomach and she pulled her hands away, trying to give the most sheepish and embarrassed look possible.[break][break] Anything to hide the clear prick of tears that had started in her eyes.[break][break] Fuck, she was too drunk for this. Way, way, way too drunk.[break][break] "I thought you were someone else," Lily lied immediately, knowing very well that he'd see straight through her. Lily was an awful liar. Even in moments where self-preservation was absolutely vital, she literally could not lie to save her ass. "I'm sorry for interrupting," she added. Another lie.[break][break] All confidence in her garb and appearance shattered in an instant, Lily turned sharply away without saying anything else, storming back toward the bar with thoughts of not wanting to remember tonight whatsoever. "Tequila. Straight. Nothing else," she said quickly, taking the shot back in a single swallow the moment it was set in front of her. Pulling out the money for the drink, she laid it on the bar, turning and heading right back to her table. Grabbing her coat and her purse, she didn't say anything to her girlfriends.[break][break] Already embarrassed out of her wits, Lily could think of nothing but escape. First Severus, now James. It seemed like the world just wanted to fuck her newly found sense of peace, normalcy, and chosen direction.

❝ She had me spellbound all through the night ❞
She didn't even reply to him... just came up with some lie that she thought he was someone else. He couldn't help but scoff... was she really going to come up to him and then run off like he would chase her? She ran off to the bar... nope he was not going to follow her. He turned back to his blond... he was going back to her... he was going to pretend he hadn't seen Lily. His plan had been to come out and just lose himself in a good time and hopefully a pretty girl. “Sorry about that love.” he said to the girl as he placed his hands back on her waist trying to get back into whatever groove he had been in. She turned around to face him and wrapped her arms around his neck
"I thought that was going to be a girl friend"
He gave a small laugh "No, no girlfriend" he didn't go into detail that he was newly single and that he was just using her to forget the woman he had loved...and said girl had just appeared behind him and run off to the bar. The blond gave him a smile and pressed her lips into his. If he hadn't seen Lily then this kiss would be exactly what he had been after tonight. The problem was he had seen Lily and now his mind wasn't on the task of bedding a girl it was on Lily. There was a small voice in his head saying that he should make a show of his attention on this girl. He could cause Lily some pain like she had caused him. He sighed as he pulled away from the girl his hands reaching up to her wrist and gently pulling her arms away from his neck "I'm sorry...I have to go" she started to say something but he didn't hear anything but the annoyance on her tone as he went in the direction of the bar... to where Lily had gone.
It took a bit of time before he made it to the bar thanks to the crowd and when he got there Lily was no where to be found. He turned around to scan the room. Where in the bloody hell had she gone? He started to look for her and then remembered he was looking for the wrong hair color... she was blond for some reason tonight. It didn't take long until he spotted her... especially in that red dress. She looked like she was leaving causing a frown to form on the young wizards lips. If she was leaving he could go back to blondie.... no... he had to talk to her.
Pushing his way to through the crowd he made his way over to the witch. "Really Lily?" he said as he reached her "Thought I was someone else and now you are running away" he wanted to add 'typical' to the end of that sentence but bit his tongue. She had a way of turning is world upside down and just leaving him in the dust... just like she was doing now.

Already? He'd moved on already? She tore her gaze away, focused on rummaging through her bag in search of her keys.[break][break] She flinched when she heard his voice behind her.[break][break] "Go back to your girl, James," were the first words out of Lily's mouth as she shrugged her coat on. A plush rabbit fur coat her mother and father had sent her for her birthday. It kept out the sharp chill which she was entirely thankful for. Especially now that she was intent on getting the hell out of the damn club. She wasn't going to fight with him here.[break][break] Honestly, she didn't want to fight at all. If anything, she wanted to be left alone... or touched the way that he'd been touching that woman. She didn't really know. Everything was too confusing to make heads or tails of.[break][break] "She's clearly upset that you ditched her," Lily said when she stopped, glancing out at the floor to see the annoyed woman glaring across at her. Part of her, as kind as she had always endeavored to be, felt bad that she'd ruined James' night.[break][break] Giving one last glance at him, she stepped around the table and out through the doors to the club, breathing a sharp sigh of relief when the cold hit her face. For a moment, she could think clearly and she turned in the direction of home, tense and unsure of what to make of the night. She knew her friends wouldn't mind if she left early. Most of them had been occupied anyway. [attr=class,punkiwofleft] [attr=class,punkiwofright] [attr=class,punkiwofextra]@james [attr=class,punkiwofcredit]by punki

❝ She had me spellbound all through the night ❞
"Seriously Lily?" was all he was able to manage when she told him to go back to his girl "She's not my girl... I don't even know her name" he winced that was probably not the right thing to say but he has just blurted it out. He couldn't say much else as she whipped her coat on and scurried away from him. Letting out an annoyed groan he glanced back at the girl on the dance floor... he could still go back... another groan escaped his lips as he shook his head and headed out after the woman he had thought was the love of his life.
There was a sharp bit of cold as he walked out the doors after Lily. He wasn't really sure why he was following her out he wasn't even sure what he was planning to say to her. He should be inside and having a good time not following her out into the cold. "You're real good at running away Lily" In his mind she kept running from him. She ran from their relationship, she ran from even maintaining a friendship, and now that they had run into each other she was running from him again. "Why are you so shocked that I'm out having a good time?" She had been the one that broke off their relationship. He hadn't chose to break up so why did she act like she was hurt he was enjoying himself now that they were broken up. This was how he managed a break up... sure it probably wasn't healthy to hook up with women who you couldn't even remember their name but it was his way.
He stopped walking after her... he wasn't going to chase her down the road like some creep. If she kept going that was fine. He had made the attempt and if she didn't stop then he could always go back into the club and find blondie or some other woman who was willing. He knew if Sirius was here he would be telling him to just go back inside and have a good time. He would say that he shouldn't waste his time on a girl who clearly didn't want anything to do with him. James had spent years trying to gain Lily's attention he wasn't sure if he could keep chasing her now... he had put in so much effort before he wasn't sure if he could do it again. He let out a sigh and glanced at the ground, he felt like an idiot... why did he have to always chase her? Maybe that was why they didn't work out... maybe their break up was a good thing he wouldn't be able to chase her forever.

Lily shoved her hands deeper into her pockets, squeezing her eyes shut for a short moment. He was right, though. She was good at running away. She'd run away from her own home simply because her sister ended up hating her so. She'd run from James because she'd needed to be something other than a love interest or a failed friend.[break][break] Honestly, Lily should have expected that James would pick himself up and move on. What right did she have to take that away from him after whatever pain she had caused him. Crossing her arms protectively over her chest, she swallowed a little, turning to watch James with a furrowed brow. Working up what little Gryffindor courage she had retained in making such a hasty, awful decision, Lily approached him quietly.[break][break] "That isn't what this is about, James," Lily said very quietly, hoping for as little of a scene as possible. "I'm glad that you're out having a good time," she admitted. A truth. "Part of me is just..." there was a sharp pause. Conflicted? Jealous? Hating her life choices? Hating that she tried to make one adult choice on her own and it had backfired?[break][break] Swallowing sharply, Lily shook her head, "I'm just angry with myself, is all. Not you. Never you." A shrug of her shoulders and she was shifting uncomfortably. "And maybe a little jealous." And lonely, she added silently. Extremely lonely. And not in a way that hanging out with friends could cure.[break][break] After a long pause, Lily opened her mouth to speak again, "And since you keep telling me I like to run away... I'm going to stand here until you walk away..."[attr=class,punkiwofleft] [attr=class,punkiwofright] [attr=class,punkiwofextra]@james [attr=class,punkiwofcredit]by punki

"Jealous?" He couldn't understand why she would be jealous if she was the one who didn't want to be in a relationship anymore. If he had been the one to break it off he would understand why... but she was the one that hadn't wanted to be with him. He shook his head not wanting to push the subject; the last thing he really wanted to talk about was their relationship especially when he had been drinking. He was at the point that he knew he would say something stupid and probably make things worse between them.
He hadn't really thought how things between them would be when they broke up because he hadn't thought they would break up. She had been the first girl that he had actually seen a future with. James had been happy in the relationship but now he was second guessing the whole thing. How had he missed the signs that she was so unhappy? He had been so lost in his feelings he hadn't even seen she hadn't been that into him... but then again wasn't that how it always had been? He had chased her, changed for her, he had always been the one who made the first step... he was always following her shadow why would a relationship change that?
A sigh escaped his lips and his hand ran along the back of his head still at a loss for words. She had said she was angry with herself but he wasn't really sure what that meant. Had she been angry that she had interrupted him on the dance floor? Was she angry that she had decided to come out a bump into him. Shaking his head James gave a lazy shrug "I'm not really sure what that means Lily". He wasn't sober enough to actually look that deep into what she was saying.
James wrinkled his nose and narrowed his eyes; much like a stubborn toddler "If you're not leaving I'm not leaving". He may have matured a lot in the last two years but he was still immature... he was only eighteen and his main source of human interaction was Sirius Black.
