A/n: In this Lily is a dancer because I originally wrote it for something else, but I didn't end up using it and I couldn't be bothered changing it. Plus this is really cute, I'm fangirling over my own writing.

Something was tapping against her window. Probably just a bird. Lily Evans kept her eyes closed and tried to fall asleep again. The tapping started again before she had the chance to remind herself of her previous dream. She opened her eyes and glared at her partially closed curtains. Were those glasses? No, she just needed some more sleep. That was it. She didn't even get to close her eyes again this time before the tapping started. Lily sat up quickly and moved angrily towards her window. She threw the curtains open and saw none other than her good friend, and neighbour, James Potter smiling at her.

"What do you want?" She asked after opening the window.

"I'm having a party. My parents are down south with my granddad. Come over," He said with a mischievous grin on his face.

"Uh, sure. Let me just get changed."

She went to close the window before James stopped her. He looked down at her outfit for the first time that night and spotted her pajamas (which consisted of sweatpants and a camisole top).

"Just come as you are. You look perfect," he said with a wink.

Lily rolled her eyes and reached for her phone, which was charging on her desk. She placed her right socked foot on the windowsill and used the edges of the window to pull herself up. She reached one of her legs down to the grass beneath her and slipped off the windowsill. James grinned even wider at her and gestured towards the fence.

"Come on."

When they arrived back at James' house, the music was blasting so loudly that Lily was surprised she hadn't heard it from her house. She instantly spotted Sirius and Marlene snogging on the couch. James guided her away from them and led her to the kitchen where Hestia was deep in conversation with Remus.

"Remus, get my lady a drink please? I have to go make sure that Peter isn't raiding my secret stash." Before anyone could reply, he had disappeared into the crowd.

"So, Lily, what would you like?" Remus asked politely.

"Just a coke, please," She replied.

Remus reached into the open fridge behind him and handed her a can of coke zero. Lily thanked him and directed her attention to the music as he returned to his conversation with Hestia. She grimaced when her ears identified the sound as 'rapping'. Hestia suddenly laughed, pulling her attention away from the terrible music.

"What?" Lily asked her.

"I guess you heard the music. James let Sirius take control while he went to get you. By the way, what are you wearing?"

"Uh, James kind of just showed up and insisted that I came over. He didn't even-"

But Lily didn't have the chance to finish her sentence, because suddenly the opening lines of Youth were blasting through the speakers and her eyes were searching desperately for her dance buddy, James. She finally spotted him staring at her from across the room. They both grinned and started pushing through the crowd towards the centre where a makeshift dance floor had been created.

"Ready?" He said while still grinning.

"Let's do this," She replied.

Cheers erupted from every corner of the room as the pair started to dance to the music. Lily's arms lifted above her head, pulling her top above her waistband slightly. James kept his eyes on her and mirrored her dancing. After a minute and a bit, Lily stepped in front of James with her back to him and felt his hands rest on her waist. Sirius' wolf whistles echoed down from the kitchen counter, where he and Marlene had climbed up to get a better view, and through the house

"..my youth, my youth is yours.."

Lily placed her feet in fourth position to prepare for a pirouette and prepared her arms.

"..a truth so loud you can't ignore.."

She kicked off and James held her upright, guiding his hands around her waist as she turned.

"..my youth, my youth, my youth.."

James pulled Lily to a halt and steadied her.

"..my youth is yours.."

Before either of them knew it, their mouths had found each other and their friends were cheering and clapping.
