Lilith sat out in the sun in extremely faded blue jeans and a very black shirt with the words 'been there probably wrecked that'. She laid her head on her arms and looked to her right as she was at the lake and saw no one coming to the lake. She looked up at the gentle blue sky and inhaled and exhaled. She closed her eyes and smiled as she thought of her warning every year from her older brother telling her to not go near the forest. She squinted one eye open and looked toward the forest.
She lifted her left leg to show her extra high, high top convers sneakers purple and blue. She turned her leg slightly and saw her lovely wand of 12 inches in length and made of a dark cherry wood with a dragon heartstring core. She was very proud of her wand and knew not to ever question her wand or why it was her’s, She pushed it back into her shoe and even though she moved her wand wouldn't. She waited a moment and stood up brushing dust and such off of her body.
She than quickly toward the forest and smiled as she ran into it. She had done it many times but some how she would run into her brother and her fun would be ruined. She walked through the shallower part of the forest where the sun shone in and lit the forest to make it look peaceful. She smiled and just went crazy jumping over things and doing acrobatic skills not many knew she could do. She heard a noise as she got a little deeper into the forest and she didn't want it to be her brother. She ran across the clearing she was in and to a tree and climbed up just fine and hid until she saw someone fallow her to the tree line and look for whatever made the noise.
She took out her wand just in case and waited for the right moment until she saw it and dropped down fast right behind the person and held her wand at the ready. She saw it was a boy that looked like a hogwarts student. She hadn’t seen him before but she didn’t lower her wand. Her father had always taught her to be ready for the worst. She asked in an alarmed voice, " Who are you?"

The day was gorgeous, James thought as he made his way over to the Forbidden Forest. He had made it somewhat of a weekly thing, going into the forest just to search around for the thrill of not getting or getting caught. Today was different though, seeing as how he picked to go in the forest in the middle of broad daylight.
The sun beat down on his neck as he made his way over, and with every step he took the closer he got to the tall, looming shadows of the trees which made it cooler. Just as he was getting 15 feet away from the forest edge, a girl who looked close to his age, took off into it. Curious, he followed after the girl, making sure to move quickly so he wouldn't lose sight of her. The girl could move fast. She jumped over tree branches with a swiftness that only some girls could muster. James was impressed.
Evidently, the girl realized someone was following her, and bolted past a clearing and out of sight. James stepped into the clearing and looked around, completely oblivious to where the girl may be. He moved a little closer to the tree he did not know she was hiding in, and was completely surprised when the girl was suddenly right behind him. He made sure to move his hand closer to his wand, just incase he needed it to defend himself.
"Who are you?" James turned around to face her, a slight grin noticeable on his face. "How about you tell me who you are first, and then i'll tell you who I am, luv."

Lilith's wand was at the ready one thing she knew was always important. She wasn't even out of breath from her running and playing around. Her eyes narrowed and looked at him she ignored his comment and even thought her appearance looked cold her eyes were soft. She knew that she probably wouldn't win in a physical fight but magic she was fast and witty a deadly combination she beat her brother on some occasions. She didn't move she was more stubborn than any of her siblings and that's what made her stand out in her father’s eyes along with her smarts.
She shook her head. " No I believe I asked you first it's only right to answer a lady when she asks a question of importance. I'm not stupid you tell me your name and I might give you mine."
She observed him and could tell he had defiantly had to run faster than a usual jog. She could also tell that just by the way he spoke he was probably a gryffindor or a slytherin. But since he seemed a little more adventurous, she chose to go with Gryffindor. She was going to let her guard down but she couldn't it was like until she knew for sure who the guy was she wasn't going to let her wand down.
She noticed his hand closer to a wand. She had both of her parent’s scary looks. That showed that if a person even tried to fight they were not likely to walk away uninjured. She knew how to duel she was good at it in fact. She did anything to keep her calm down before she did something she might regret. Her clouded brown eyes unclouded fast as she heard the boy start to speak to her. They were just the right color that made you feel like she could read into you. She could tell your deepest secrets.

James narrowed his eyes at the girl and looked her over. He was positive that she looked like someone he knew. Her eyes seemed to bore right through him, which was, to say the least, a little unnerving. He focused on her a little, trying to place her face to someone he knew, but to no avail.
"...it's only right to answer a lady when she asks a question of importance. "Oh, i'm so sorry, luv. My manners must've escaped me. I, am James Sirius Potter." he said with a haughty tone. "Now, it's only right for you to reciprocate in answering the question. So, what's your name, luv?"
After looking the girl over a few times, he came to the conclusion that she had to have been a Ravenclaw. Her eyes were cold, but had a softness to them, which showed some intelligence. The coldness of them reminded him so much of someone he had seen many times before. The girl was very pretty, but adventurous. Just the type of girl he loved to flirt with. "and why would you be out her in the forest. You wouldn't want a stray branch to scratch that beautiful face of yours, now would you?"

Lilith looked at him not taking her guard down for a moment. She listened to him introduce himself and she lowered her was a bit. She still was ready just in case he decided to pull a prank on her. Her eyes showed she was satisfied that she had won the argument. She looked at the ground and said in her softer more normal voice. " Lilith, Lilith Snape."
She was cautious and was going to find away to give James a taste of his own medic an for hurting Luci. It wasn't nice for him to just hate her. Lilith had promised to get him back for Luci. Her eyes drifted further down but still made some contact with his. She couldn't help but smirk a little at the comment he made. " I wanted to get away for a while so i could just be me. A scratch is easily fixed so I wouldn't mind it so much. What are you doing out here in the forest Students are forbidden you know 'Forbidden forest' she said making a sarcastic remark. She stopped and lowed her wand to be at her side.
She still held onto it with a tight grip. But she relaxed a little bit before she regretted anything. Her dark brown eyes met James's again as he started to speak.

The girl stood directly in front of him, with her wand still up in defense mode. James was curious as to why the girl didn't trust him. 'Ahh...maybe she's heard of my, ahem, tricks I pull?' With a smirk, he eyed the girl as she told him her name.
"Lilith, Lilith Snape." That made a lot of sense. James finally realized where he recognized her from. He was aqcuainted with her older brother Blair and he also knew their father because of the tales his father had told him. James had also caught a glimpse or two of Severus before. "Ahh..." was all he could say to her response.
"Oh, of course. A scratch can be easily fixed. How silly of me to think that you couldn't fix it yourself." He said with a sincere grin and rested his hand on his chest. He always tried his best to charm a girl however he could.
"Well, to me, the forest isn't really forbidden, but more of a great place to escape teachers and classes." he said with a smirk. "But enough about me, lovely. Let's talk more about you." He winked at the girl as she lowered her wand down to her side.

Lilith looked At James and smirked at him he was in a word 'charming' her smirk turned into a smile but not an of coarse smile. It was her trouble smile the one her brother always hated so much. She was like her brothers only in she could be a very cold human being. But she wasn't like them because she always was a warm person and would smile a lot and her eyes always showed how she cared even if she hated someone. She laughed a bit and nodded. "Yes I know what you mean."
She thought a moment and got all her calculations correct and her eyes drifted up to his. She bit her lip hoping that she could run fast enough and he would try and if he really wanted to know he he'd try to catch her. She said in a soft voice with a lot of trouble in her voice. " You want to know more about me but only if you can catch me...
She looked at him to see if would try and catch her. She stopped trying to analyze him and just turned to her left and took off running at her normal speed. She tried to look over her should but couldn’t see very well. As she ran she didn't keep in mind where she was going until she stopped completely and looked around and muttered "bugger bugger bugger BUGGER! Lily you should have paid attention. "
All of her thoughts came to a halt when she heard something. She looked in a circle and tried to find her wand but when she heard a voice. She jumped a little but not noticeable.

The Snape girl gave James a peculiar smile, which sparked James's interest in her. He eyed her curiously, up and down, trying to figure out what that smile was telling him. It was almost...mischievious, you could say. But also a bit comforting. It wasn't the normal smile you would get from someone trying to plan something.
The girl started to eye him back, which made James grin widely. Must like what she sees... Then, before James even had time to rech for his wand, the girl said something about catching her and took off running in the other direction. James just stood there, a little confused, and then finally got his sense back. With his grin still on his face, he pulled out his wand and took off after the girl.
The branches were a bit long and so were the vines, so when necessary, James would use a spell to cut them as quick as he could so he wouldn't lose the girl. She could move FAST, and James could just barely see her. But before James could even think to catch her in a surprising way, she began to slow down before coming to a complete stop. James took this s a time to slow down to and to keep quiet. She looked like she had become frightened and was turning around quickly.
"Ah! Caught you, luv." He said as he stepped behind her, not acting as though he didn't notice her jump when she heard his voice.

Lilith closed her eyes and was about to curse up and down but she was a lady and knew better than to do that in front of anyone. She breathed a few times and turned around with a soft smile. " Well seems you have indeed caught me and thus you earn a walk and talk with me. But just so you know if I had known this area better you would have lost me very fast."
It wasn't in her too ever with draw from anything. She would never admit someone had beat her she just couldn't do it. That was why she was almost put into Gryffindor with her brother Blair. To this day she thinks she would have done all right in that house. She walked over to James and smiled as she started to gently walk past him toward a place she felt more comfortable. She looked over her shoulder and asked. " Are you coming Mr. James Potter?"
She smiled her voice could always be caring but still leave someone puzzled. She closed her eyes and waited quietly for his answer. One thing her father always made sure of was she would show respect to every person no matter who the were or where they came. She sometimes hated being so respectful because people took advantage of it. She was surprised when James started to talk.
She looked over at him and listened to what he had to say. Intrested in why he wanted to know who she was. No body ever did that not really.
