A/N: Here's the next chapter. We posted because it was ready. We are a little impatient when it comes to these things. Hehe :)

Disclaimer: Yeah, we are not the world famous author of the most successful book series of all time. We just write stories about the characters from that series. Pathetic, right?

The Return of the Underwear

Chapter 2:

Lily Evans woke slowly from a refreshing sleep, yawning and stretching, before realizing that it was not, indeed, the weekend, (as she had previously thought), but a Thursday. And on top of that, she was going to be late for Potions. She looked to her side, and found her best friend Alice snoring in the next bed over. Quickly, she grabbed her wand and summoned a jug of water to pour over her friend's face.

"B-b-bloody HELL!" Alice shrieked in surprise. "I'm UP! I'm UP!!!" She rolled out of her bed and locked herself in the bathroom to avoid any more pouring of cold water. Sighing, Lily hurriedly donned her robes and shoved her hair into a ponytail.

Five minutes later the girls were sprinting through the halls. They ran through open the door and skidded into their seats just as Professor Slughorn walked in. "Oh HO!!! Lily m'dear, running a tad bit late perhaps?" he chuckled, his massive belly jiggling. She gave him a tired smile, and then turned to look for her boyfriend of six months, James Potter. He smiled eagerly at her as she grinned back. Her eyes strayed to the seat next to him, where she was slightly startled by the angry glare emanating from James' best friend. Even more startling was the disapproving nod of Remus in the next seat over. Peter was looking rather frightened, though that was not unusual.

Because Lily had been late, Sirius hadn't been able to confront her. As it turned out, he didn't have a moment all day where he could talk to her without James listening in. Finally, he made up an excuse to miss Quidditch practice, waving as James left the tower, before turning to face the staircase towards the girls' dormitory with a slightly crazed look in his eyes. He took a deep breath, and ran at full speed up the staircase. He was halfway up when it turned into a slide and he was forced back down. But Sirius was not one to just give up. He tried again, with the same result. And again. With the same result. And again. And again. Then he stopped to nurse his many bruises. About an hour later, just as he was about to give it another go, he heard a familiar voice coming from the portrait hole.

"See you later Alice!" Lily waved goodbye to her friend and stepped into the common room. With a small shriek she turned around, trying to follow her friend back outside. Sirius was marching over, a vicious look on his face.

"I can totally see you as a murderer you know," she muttered as Sirius clamped a hand around her wrist before she could escape and dragged her up to his dormitory. As soon as the door was closed he whirled around.

"How could you cheat on James you little SLUTWHORE!!!!" Shocked at his outburst, Lily turned to see Remus shaking his head sadly, with Peter's shaking form trying unsuccessfully to hide behind him.

"Padfoot, I thought we decided to go at this from a positive angle." Remus said calmly.

"POSITIVE ANGLE? POSITIVE ANGLE? THERE IS NO POSITIVE ANGLE!!!! CLEARLY LILY WAS CHEATNG ON JAMES!!!!!" He looked up, and his expression turned confused, as Peter ghostly-pale face turned whiter still and even Remus looked uncomfortably toward the door.

"Lily is cheating on me?" James asked, standing behind Sirius in the doorway. Sirius clamped his mouth shut. He had forgotten that Quidditch practice would be over by now. James glanced worriedly at Lily, who was shaking her head furiously. Noticing this, Sirius started nodding his head just as frantically.
