Chapter 1

"Oh, come on Lupin, cant you at least pretend to be excited?" Lily Evens asked as she tied back her dark red hair. She was standing in the middle of the men's department with her best friend, Remus Lupin.

"You really are thick for someone so smart, Lil," Remus rolled his eyes and leaned up against one of the racks. "For the millionth time: I don't want a social life."

"What do you think of this color blue?" Lily asked as she pulled an extremely bright blue shirt off one of the racks.

"It's disgusting. You are great at girl's clothes but you really have no taste in men's clothing," Remus said to her.

"Well what do you think you should wear to the party?" Lily said crossly, stuffing the shirt back on the rack.

"First of all, I'm not going to the party, and the chances you'll be able to force me there are quite slim," Remus told her as he stood up straight and stopped leaning against the clothes. "But if I wear to be forced there, and I repeat; very unlikely, I would wear these parts, this shirt, and I have an old pair of converse in my closet," he said as he pulled a pair of fading black jeans and a grey teen shirt with the Rolling Stone's logo on the front.

"That may work very well," Lily mumbled. "Try them on to see what they look like. You're the easiest guy I've ever shopped with."

"Why thank you," Remus said sarcastically as Lily led him over to the dressing rooms. "I feel very gay now."

Lily let out a half hearted laugh that sounded a bit forced.

"What's the matter?"

"Are you?" Lily almost whispered as she turned towards Remus.

"What are you talking about?"

"Are you gay Remus?"

Remus took a deep breath in and slowly let it out. "Um, yeah. I was sort of hoping that I could tell you, I didn't plan it like this."

"It's okay, Remus," Lily reassured him. "You know it doesn't make a difference to me. When did you find out?" She started towards the dressing rooms again.

"Two weeks ago," Remus said, following her. "Please don't tell anyone. I'll just come out if I ever get a boyfriend."

"If?" Lily snapped as they came up to the changing rooms, turning on her heal to face him. "What do you mean if? I think you meant to say when. Anybody, a guy or girl, would be lucky to have you."

Remus gave her a weary smile. "Thanks Lily, I don't know what I'd do without you." He pulled her into a tight hug and kissed the top of her head.

"I'll be out here," she told him as he went into the men's changing room.

"So why exactly did you agree to go to one of Potter and Black's party?" Remus asked through the door.

"Jesse's going," Lily shrugged. "He said he wanted me to come with him. And I just cant say no to him," she sighed.

"He's a total bitch, Lily. Why the fuck are you dating him? You know he locked Pete in the storage closet by the history room on Thursday and he was in there for three hours and missed his last three period classes."

"He's really not that awful, Remus. And Peter's Peter, everyone locks the idiot in storage closets. And Jesse's a whole lot better than Potter and Black."

"First of all, Pete was my friend before you and I would really appreciate it if you stopped treating him like an idiot, he's a good person. And also actually think Potter and Black are better than your arse-faced boyfriend. I mean, you've never actually had a conversation with either of them? I've talked to James when we had to do a science lab together and he's a really nice guy. You should give him a chance."

"Is James Potter or Black?" Lily asked. "I don't know their first names."

"It's James Potter, I don't really know Black, I've only seen him a couple times walking down the hall, I've never been in any of his classes. What do you think," he came out of the dressing room.

"Nice," Lily nodded. "And there's no way you're gonna get me to break up with Jesse and start hanging around Potter. Hurry up so we can get back to your place. I'm hungry."

"I barely have anything," Remus sighed. "I got fired again but Pete thinks he can get me a job starting next week."

"Aw, shit," Lily sighed. "I'm sorry Remus. We can go out for lunch, I'll buy. Then we can go to your place."

"Cool," Remus nodded and smiled appreciatively. "Thanks."

"James you're parents are going to kill you," Sirius Black told his best friend as they both lay on James' bed talking about the party he was throwing at his house tonight while his parents were going out to eat and see a ballet.

"They're not gonna find out, Sirius," James rolled his eyes. "Why are you always so fucking negative, Black? You really should stop that. It's downing my vibe."

"'Cause they always find out, James," Sirius cracked his knuckles. "And don't ever say anything is 'downing your vibe,' it sounds really, really, really, friggin' gay."

"I thought we said no more gay jokes when you came out," James raised an eyebrow and ran his hand through his messy hair, making it even messier.

"You can't make gay jokes, Potter," Sirius said, sitting and cracking his neck. "I can."

"Whatever, mate," James shook his head with an amused smirk on his lips. "And please stop it with all the creepy crack of your bones. It grosses me out, and you're gonna get scoliosis or whatever that disease is."

"So why are you so persistent with having this party anyway? I mean, you've canceled parties at the last minute before," Sirius leaned back and rested his head and back on his best friends bed after cracking his shoulders one last time.

"I invited a bunch of thugs that are ten times bigger than both of us put together and they'd probably break my neck if I said they had to get out of my house," there was a silence following Sirius's amused chuckle. Both boys stared at the ceiling with wandering minds until James added up, "plus Evens is coming. So I can't mess this up."

Sirius groaned and turn his head to look at James, "why do you like her so much, Potter? She's so….so…I don't know, she's just such a goody-goody."

"I know, but I don't really care," James sighed. "I think I'm in love with her."

Sirius started snorting with laughter. "Yeah, right," he laughed. "Because you obviously don't just want to get in her pants."

"I'm serious, Sirius," James said solemnly. "And don't you dare laugh at that fucking annoying pun, Black."

"Whatever, dude," Sirius rolled his eyes and stood up.

"Yeah, whatever," James sighed again. "You just don't get it."

"I'm sorry, James," Sirius' smile was replaced by a sincere look. "That's just not my think. I don't believe in love; especially when you barely know the person. It just never seems to work out right and everyone always ends up crying. And that's no fun, so I don't like to get caught up in things like that. Plus she already has a boy friend, right. That Jesse Din guy, right? The one who plays American Football."

"Yeah, he's such a bastard," James said. "I'm pretty sure he's cheating on her. With that brunet with the big ass whose in PreCalc with us."

"I wouldn't put it above him," Sirius frowned.

"I think I'm going to tell her tonight. You know, I'll be her knight in shining armor who saved the fair madden from death and destruction. Or in this case heart break, but sill," James smiled jokingly over as Sirius.

"Good luck with that," Sirius laughed as he got to his feet. "Come on, let's go out and get some pizza or subs. I'm hungry."

"Yeah," James nodded and got up and walked out of the room after Sirius.
