"I'm nervous." Lily said to her boyfriend of almost a year. James Potter squeezed her hand gently.

"There's nothing to be afraid about Lil. It's just the guys."

"I know but how do you think they'll take it?"

"They will be happy for us of course." James encouraged.

"Even Sirius?" Lily asked hesitantly. James sighed. Ever since the couple had started dating Sirius had been distant with Lily. James knew it was just because of all that was going on with the war. Sirius's brother was delving deeper into dark magic, his family hated him, and Sirius at times felt that Lily was somehow taking his place with James.

"Lil, Sirius adores you." James answered. "He's just going through stuff right now and I'm sorry if you're getting the brush up from it."

"Are you lying to me are do your really mean it?" Lily asked teasing.

"I don't lie." James replied. There was the sound of the portrait opening and the heads common room was now housed with Remus and Sirius. Lily and James jumped up in surprise to greet the two visors.

"Hello all." Lily said happily. Remus embraced her in a short hug and Sirius shook her hand awkwardly. James made a gauche noise upon seeing this. "Where's Peter?"

"Detention." Sirius answered.

"Oh," Lily replied meekly. "We'll before I tell you why we asked you here today I would like to talk to you for a moment Sirius." Sirius looked at James questionably and shrugged.

"Sure Evans." Sirius replied following her into the small study.

"Sirius I know that this year has been hard on you but I have been nothing but nice to you and I want to know why you hate me." Sirius remained silent for a long moment.

"I don't hate you. I've tried but it's hard to hate you. Your right you have done nothing to me to receive such a cold response from me but I'm going through some stuff and I'm really trying to accept you I am. It's just taking some time." Sirius said honestly.

"Would it help if you knew more about me?" Lily asked. "Or if you wanted to talk with me I could. I'm thankful that you're trying because you're a really big part of James's life and that means you're important to me to."

"Do you love James?" Sirius asked suddenly.

"More than I ever thought possible." Lily answered. "I love him with all my heart."

"Why did it take you so long for you to realize that he was a good guy?"

"He never really opened up to me until this year." Lily said. "In a way I'm glad. I don't think I could have ever appreciated him so much until I grew up a little."

"Thank you for loving him like you do." Sirius said. "I see the way James looks at you and I know he loves you as much as you love him. Sometime I just worry that you're going to take my place and James won't need me anymore. I know it's stupid but that's how I feel."

"That's not stupid." Lily assured. "You're James's best friend he will always need you trust me. You and he have something I can't touch or understand completely. You're his brother."

"And you're his soul mate." Sirius pointed out. "You're now his first priority in life and that scares me because I may never find that. It's always been me and James and now it's you and James first then us. It's just hard to adjust."

"I never asked for that though." Lily said sadly. "I'm sorry if you feel like I'm somehow supplanting you."

"It's not your fault Evans"

"Lily." She corrected.

"Lily," Sirius agreed. "It's my baggage not yours and I'm already getting to know and like you better."

"Really?"

"Of course." Sirius smiled warmly hugging Lily. "Little Sis."

"Big bro I need to tell you something." Lily said excitedly leading Sirius back to where James and Remus were talking animatedly. "James I think it's time." James stood up and pulled Lily towards him excitedly.

"What's going on you guys?" Remus asked standing next to Sirius.

"Well." Lily started.

"Lily and I are getting married!" James exclaimed. Lily looked at Sirius anxiously for his reaction. He walked up slowly to James and embraced him in a brotherly hug.

"Congratulation to both of you." Sirius said winking at Lily. She grinned back comforted by the fact that all their issues were finally worked out.
