As Kia finally went to her own room Lily followed her out from her room to the heads common room. As Lily closed the door after Kia James came out of his room and greeted Lily with a simple hi.

Lily narrowed her eyes and stared at James. James who looked at her just raised his eyebrows and shrugged.

"How could you!" Lily said in an accusing manner.

"I swear I didn't do anything!" James said trying not to get Lily mad. His eyes were wide and he stared racking his brain to find something he did that could have mad Lily mad.

"How could you be friends with a guy who lies to the girl he likes!"

"Ah, you mean Remus and Kia's little love fest yesterday night!" James said finally understanding her.

"Yes!" Lily said looking at James as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Well you know about Remus' condition!" James cried.

"Is that why he said what he said!" Lily cried. She then backed off a bit.

"Of course!" James said trying to explain. He grabbed her hand and led her to the couch.

"Remus has only told about 6 friends in his life about his condition. The Marauders, you, and this one girl last year. She was my neighbor, and she and Remus were seeing each other for about 2 years. It was the day he had said. He was so confident about it. He marched over her house and gave he a hug, then took her to a separate room and told her and she was just so horrible about it! She said that he was a freak and that he would kill her if she let them keep dating. It took him the whole summer to finally get over it. He doesn't want that with Kia. Kia is so special to him. He is like a little small boy when he starts talking about her and if she ever left him he wouldn't know what to do."

There was silence for about a minute in which James was thinking back to that horrible day and Lily pitied Remus.

"You do know that she would be fine with the fact that he is a werewolf, right?" Lily said as she brought her feet under her.

"Yea…" James said as he lifted his feet onto the table.

Lily stretched her feet out on the couch and looked at James. He was watching the fire and she was watching him intently. She saw his hazel brown eyes flicker with life from the fire. She saw his strong pointy nose complement his soft pink lips that seemed just the right size for him.

"I am sorry." Lily said quietly.

James looked at Lily with a curious expression.

"For what?" he asked, wondering why she need to apologize to him.

"I was horrible to you and the Marauders. You guys aren't that bad…and now days a prank is just what this world needs after all the horrible things that Voldemort has done."

James looked at her with surprise…he never expected this from Lily. Just snide comments and hatred. Then, this surprise turned into admiration. She was actually beginning to accept the Marauders, and become friends with them.

"Its Ok," said James. "I can understand why you sometimes got annoyed…sorry about that."

They both chuckled softly and looked at each other with somber expressions.

Everything suddenly seemed to fall into place after that. That night, they had continued on, talking about random issues, and laughing. The teased each other and both went to sleep, knowing they had made a new everlasting friend.

The next morning, 2 days after Salina and Sirius had their infamous kiss; rumors were flying like ashes after a flame throughout Hogwarts. Some ranged from them just hugging all the way to them deciding to elope and start a vineyard in Mexico.

That faithful day out meager Salina was walking down a lonely hallway. Suddenly she made a quick turn and about a couple of feet in front of her she saw Filch. They were walking onward quietly and then suddenly out of now where out popped Sirius. He had an arm full of water balloons which he suddenly started to pelt Filch with. Suddenly another boy appeared soaked with water. He stopped in curiosity to watch what was happening. The scene was pretty funny actually; Salina and the boy were just standing there while Filch was running like a lunatic and then Sirius was laughing like a maniac pelting water balloons at Filch!

Finally after Sirius was done pelting Filch with water balloons and Filch was done shouting curse after curse he regained his composure. He glared angrily at the two boys. Filch finally took both Sirius and the small poor boy by there shirt collars. He turned to Salina. Salina widened her eyes.

"I didn't do anything!" Salina cried not needing another detention from Filch.

"I know you didn't girl!" He grunted, "You're not wet! Who was the one that threw water balloons at me?"

"Didn't you see who did it?" Salina asked.

"No I was temporally put in blinding spell." Filch rolled his eyes as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.

Salina, if this was 2 days ago, would have smiled and would have pointed the finger at Sirius' direction without missing a heartbeat. But now that she liked him what should she do? She didn't want to get Sirius or the little boy in trouble.

"Umm… well I don't know…I didn't see…" Salina said hoping he would be dumb enough to buy the excuse.

"What! Then what in the world were you looking at while I was being harassed!" no such luck.

"That brick…on the wall!" Salina stuttered.

"Oh what ever!" cried Filch, "I will find out who did it!"

Filch let the two boys go, snorted, and briskly walked toward the next hallway.

"Thanks maim!" said the small boy and then ran in the other direction leaving a very uncomfortable Salina and a confused Sirius in the hallway.

"Hey I am NOT a maim! Do I look like a teacher to you?!?!?!"

Salina's pov.

Stupid kid…calling me maim!!!!! The nerve!

Oh god! He is right there!

Say something! Say something! Oh god, just don't stand there like a gaping fool, do something!

"I will be off, I guess…" I said horrified. I hadn't talk to him since the last time we kissed. I had totally changed since then. I usually had a date every week and now my whole month was clear…but he still had dates...he still made out with at least 5 to 6 girls a day.

Normal p.o.v.

"You didn't tell who did it, why not?" asked Sirius following her foot steps.

"Well if you didn't notice I usually don't tattle on anybody." Salina said making sure not to make eye contact.

"But you always do tattle on me…even if I didn't even do anything!" Sirius eyed Salina curiously.

"Your point?"

"What made you change so much that you stopped blaming things on me!" Sirius questioned.

"Guess I didn't feel like it!" she said calmly.

"Yea right and I am the king of England." Sirius rolled his eyes.

Salina turned stopped and turned around. The moment his eyes caught hers she felt week in the knees but kept herself together. "Well it is great to meet you your majesty."

"Well Ms. Carson, I am sorry but I have been getting a lot of complains from the kingdom that you are not acting like yourself and that is not allowed in my kingdom!" Sirius smiled.

"Oh really? And may I ask whom is it that is complaining?" I answered back.

"Walk with me my dear. I as sorry to tell you this but my really good friend, the handsome and charming squire Sirius Black, says that you are and I quote 'acting weird'." Sirius linked his arm with Salina as he talking making Salina dizzy

"Well, my apologies but, I can not stop acting weird. So I guess I will just have to deal with the punishment." She said frowning.

"Then I hear by declare that you are banished from the kingdom!" Sirius said with authority.

"You will banish this face from your kingdom?" Salina said making a puppy dog face.

"I guess I can't. Then I will just have to make you go to the dungeons and stay in solitary confinement."

"Well I refuse to go!"

"Oh yea!"

"Yea!"

"Well I have people working for me! And then will make you go!"

"Like I am scared!"

Suddenly Salina and Sirius looked at each other. Then in 2 seconds then both were on the floor laughing there heads off.

"Congratulations! That was the most stupid conversation I have ever had!" Salina cried with literal tears in her eyes.

"Well I guess it happens when you're with me!"

Sirius got up and helped Salina up as well. "Well I don't know about you but I would love to have these stupid conversations with you. So what do you say…friends?"

Salina's head started to spin but still she managed to weakly say, "Sure, why not?
