A/N:I own nothing not even my body and soul

Chapter 3: Surprises at midnight

Lily's p.o.v

"Finally Mary, how long does it take to walk down a corridor?" Lizzie was incredibly impatient to begin, the rest of us all exchanged uneasy glances. One of us was doomed. Well, we'll soon find out who the lucky girl is.

Luckily for us I managed to get in there first, "So do you like Sirius then?"

Lizzie actually looked vaguely frightened and glanced swiftly at Lyra who was looking interested but not in any way worried.

"Ermm, umm…yes, I mean NO!" she said, way too fast for anyone to believe the second half of her sentence.

Then Lyra did something none of us expected.

"Don't worry Liz, Sirius is all yours." Lyra said nonchalantly if slightly crossly, ruffling Liz's golden curls.

We all had our mouths open for the second time today, finally Lizzie broke the stunned silence by whispering,

"What do you mean Sirius is all mine?" staring intently at Lyra.

"Just that, Sirius said he had feelings for someone else," (Lizzie went deathly pale) " and I said so did I," can't think who that would be…Remus " then he said he knew said he knew who I liked, so I said it's only fair that I know who he likes and he said to quote 'that gorgeous friend of yours' " Oohh

"And that narrowed it down to you or Mary."

"How on earth did you get it to just those two?" I asked,

"Well…it obviously wasn't me, and Ali has Frank, James would kill him if he did anything with you," I gave a death glare "What he would!"

"Well if that's how you're doing it, then you can cross me off that list too" Mary joined in with her soft voice.

"What!" the four of us spun around to face Mary. I am actually going to create a law saying no surprises. God!

"Who is the lucky boy then?" Lizzie asked,

"Not telling you."

"Aww come on, we'll all tell you ours." We will? Lyra's attempt at persuasion; An art she has become very adept at.

"Fine, but you go first." Poor Mary, she looks utterly defeated…Lyra has that effect on people.

"Okay," Lyra took a deep breath, "Remus Lupin."

"I knew it!" Lizzie jumps up and down on her bed. Well if it breaks she will get no sympathy from me.

Lyra glares at her; quite frankly I'm surprised Lizzie isn't lying dead on the floor that was one intense death glare. "You can go next then Liz." With a 'butter-wouldn't-melt-in-my-mouth' look on her face. Scary Lyra!

That stopped the jumping, Mwhaa haa! "Sirius Black." She gabbles before curling up into a ball. Sighing Lyra turns to Alice "Ali', everyone knows you and frank are made for each other." Alice smiles widely at Lyra's words looking dreamy. Oh Merlin not the 'Frank' look, nooo!

"So Lily" Oh God… "Who's the love of your life?" That is just soppy (mentally shakes head). Lyra questions with a massive smirk on her face. Definitely not good.

"I don't have one," I stated, not looking at any of them.

"Yeah right, let's just say you spent a lot of time starring at a certain marauders abs." So that's what she wanted to say… Three pairs of eyes flickered between Liz and I.

"Really, Judging by your happy face it wasn't Sirius was it?" Lyra smirked as she turned to face Lizzie.

"Nope!" Lizzie was looking ridiculously happy and giggled slightly, the other three didn't look too far off either. Right this is the final straw.

"I WAS NOT STARRING AT HIS ABS!" I scream, "I AM SICK OF YOU LOT TRYING TO MAKE OUT THAT I LIKE POTTER! FOR THE LAST TIME I HATE THAT STUPID ARRAGANT, PIG-HEADED, FUCKING BASTARD!" At that I storm down the corridor kicking the wall hard as I slam the door to my bedroom. Damn my red-headed temper, I still don't know which boy Mary's after.
