"I think he's a bit shocked." Lily whispered into Remus' ear.

"You could say that." Remus breathed out watching James process this new information. Lily slipped her hand in Remus'. He looked at her a pecked her cheek. "You look amazing," he smiled.

"You to." Lily giggled. "Let's go?"

"Yeah, let's go." Remus breathed out and took a slow step towards the door.

James sat next to his date watching the door waiting for Remus and Lily to come in. Just as he was about to turn away he saw Lily's green dress and red hair bob in laughing. Remus gestured to an empty table were they both sat. James turned away quickly and asked Carly to dance.

Remus watched James look away and get up to the dance floor. He then redirected his glance to Lily and saw she to had her view transfixed on James. Remus smiled sadly.

"C'mon Ream, let's dance." Lily said, watching James and Carly leave the dance floor and head for her table.

"Hey Lil." Carly waved.

"Hi Cares." Lily said, using her best friends nickname as they passed.

James and Carly sat at the table Remus and Lily were just at and watched Lily and Remus dance to the slow song playing.

"You like him don't you?" Remus whispered into Lily's ear quietly after a while.

"Who? You?" Lily smiled innocently and nibbled Remus' ear sweetly.

"No." Remus pulled away from Lily. "James."

"What?" Lily cried out. "Why would you say that?"

"Lily, I like you a lot. I just think you spending a lot of time staring at him isn't the best thing for our relationship." Remus said gloomily.

"I... you... how... dare..." Lily chocked out between sobs.

"Lily, I'm sorry if I was wrong, I just-" but before Remus could finish Lily was gone, running out of the great hall.

"Lily!" He called to her, standing by himself most everyone staring at him.
