Normally, Severus would be as far away as possible from a party - especially a party thrown by James Potter. However, on this night he had his own reasons for walking through the door of the shop owned and run by his rival in life and in love. Any chance to catch a glimpse of Lily was worth putting up with James.

He wandered in and quickly took a seat at an empty table, surveying the others around him. The annoying amount of decoration told him what his own math already had - Christmas was right around the corner. He took special notice of the mistletoe and paths to avoid it - unless, of course, a certain redhead caught him under it.

Lily absolutely adored decorating. She'd cut small snowflakes out of paper and charmed them to float around the ceiling.

She'd been keeping an eye on the door, and saw Severus come in, but she didn't go to his table right away, choosing to let James notice his presence first. Having the two of them in the same room was never a particularly good idea, and now that she was living with James and had kissed Severus several weeks earlier...she was fairly certain that this very well could be a powderkeg just waiting to explode.

Powderkeg or not - Severus had no desire to get into it with James that evening. As it stood, the older wizard really didn't consider James a threat. When one had dueled Minerva McGonagall and had lived to tell the tale - only losing because he didn't want to win and fled to avoid hurting her - one really didn't give two flying figs about what an eighteen-year-old twerp might do in a moment of hot-headedness ( ... )

After a few rounds around the shop, an eggnog in hand, Lily sat across from Severus at his table. She was sure that James would notice, but she also couldn't just ignore him all evening.

She smiled a little warily. "Hi," she said, lifting her glass to clink it against his.

Mistletoe! hexywitch December 6 2011, 03:09:53 UTC

Lily had been nervously sipping eggnog all evening as she, Severus, and James all shared some very interesting looks. She'd been trying to avoid the mistletoe, as the only person it was acceptable to be kissing was James, and tonight kissing James meant kissing James in front of Severus, who she had kissed not that long ago.

But the eggnog had clouded her thoughts, just enough that she found herself leaning up against a wall, unwittingly right below the mistletoe.

And now he dies... xD halfbloodalways December 6 2011, 19:04:13 UTC

Severus had been trying his best to avoid the mistletoe. The only person he wanted to kiss was the very person he couldn't kiss - at least not here. Still, he had indulged in something he hadn't done so in a very long time - drinking just a little too much. He walked, fairly well, among the crowd, trying to find a waiter to refill his drink again but none seemed in sight right then. Even James seemed absent from the bar which caused Severus to scowl. The one time he wanted to have the other wizard around and he had seemingly vanished.

He continued to wander along. Somewhere during the evening his traveling cloak had gone missing and he had unbuttoned his jacket due to the heat brought on by the alcohol. When he finally came to rest he didn't notice at first that the person he was standing next to was Lily - he was just thankful for a wall to lean against for a moment.

Lily glanced over at the man standing beside her, and the corners of her mouth tilted up into a grin when she realized who it was. Most of the nervousness she'd been harboring over his presence this evening was subdued by the positive thing she felt for him, and the alcohol in her veins.

"Hello there, stranger."
