Sirius was running as fast as he possibly could. He had to find James. He couldn't let Roxanne do that to his best friend. And he couldn't let Lily be hurt like that.
At least if she woke up, no when, when she woke up, he thought to himself, she'll have James by her side.
He heard a disturbing noise when he was walking by a small broom closet, and realized that was where the desperate little snob and the poor James must be, so he opened it.
"James!" Sirius screamed when he saw James inside the broom closet with Roxanne.
"Roxanne we all know what you did! You desperate little slut! You can make sure you'll get in trouble for this one!" Sirius shouted angrily at her.
Roxanne turned pale. "W-what?" she said, "I, I didn't do anything illegal!"
Sirius glared at her.
"Oh shut up you little liar you can't give a love potion to someone," he said.
Then grabbed James' arm, pulling him away from Roxanne.
"Sirius! What are you doing? I wanna be alone with Roxanne, right now if you don't mind," James said, looking totally out of it and giving Roxanne a cheesy grin.
"Sorry, buddy, but in a few hours when you are back to normal, you are gonna thank me. And Roxanne will get in trouble like she deserves," Sirius said, and grabbed Roxanne arm when she tried to make a run for it.
"Wait!" said James. "I don't want my beautiful girl friend to get in trouble! Wow, she's just so beautiful," he said.
Sirius slapped him over the head to try and knock some sense into him, but it didn't work.
"But, but you uh, you don't have any proof that I gave James a love potion!" Roxanne said defensively.
Sirius realized this, but then saw a bottle with pink liquid sticking out of Roxanne pocket.
"Hey!" Sirius shouted grabbing the bottle out of her pocket.
"Now I do, sorry babe," he said, waving the potion in front of her.
Roxanne looked ready to kill Sirius. "I, I can't get in trouble! I just can't! I won't!"
"Well," said Sirius giving her a mock smile,
"Let's go see what the head master says, shall we," he said.
Then he took James and Roxanne arms and guiding them to the statue that lead up to Professor Dumbledore's office.
"Drooble's Best Blowing Gum," Sirius said, and the state began to rise up, giving Sirius, James, and Brianna some stairs to climb.
Sirius always knew the password to Dumbledore's office since he was up there at least once a day getting in trouble.
"Ah, Mr. Black, Mr. Potter, Ms. Wallace," said Dumbledore, glancing up at them, "please, have a seat," so they sat down.
"Now, what can I do for you three today?" he asked them, smiling.
"Um Professor Dumbledore, I discovered that Roxanne was using a love potion on James to get him to like her." Sirius said. "I have this bottle of love potion as truth that I found in Roxanne's pocket."
Professor Dumbledore glanced over at James and Roxanne and noticed that James was mindlessly staring at Roxanne.
He realized that was Sirius was saying must be true.
"Is this true, Ms. Wallace?" he asked Brianna, however not smiling at her.
"Well, well, yes!" Roxanne began to cry. "I just knew secretly that deep down James really did love me, but he was wasting his time with that stupid red head!"
"Her name is Lily!" Sirius screamed. "And I'm not in the mood for you to be treating her like that because she isn't in a very good state!" he said sadly.
Dumbledore looked over at Sirius sympathetically, but James didn't seem to care. Dumbledore knew he would be terribly upset once the effects of the potion were taken off him though.
"I just figured instead of letting James waste his time with Lily, I might as well help him out and get him to spend his time with me," Roxanne finished.
"Ms. Wallace," said Dumbledore in a calm voice, "I cannot believe you would do this. Luckily Mr. Black realized what you did. I have no choice but to give you detention every day for one month. Please go and see Professor McGonnagall so she can arrange it."
Roxanne looked very angry. She stormed out of the room, her face very red with rage. James looked sad to see her leave.
"Now, Mr. Black, I would like to thank you for helping your friend out like this. And also thank you for not taking matters into your own hands. 50 points to Gryffindor. "
"Oh well, Doe realized what must have happened, not me," said Sirius. "Well then," said Dumbledore, "another 50 in honor of Ms. Kristin Lenin."
Then Dumbledore looked at James.
"Mr. Potter I am now going to take the effects of the love potion off of you and you will be back to normal in a few minutes," he said.
"What?" James asked looking confused. "I didn't take any love potion!"
"Relax, Mr. Potter," Dumbledore said.
And then, he shouted, "Undonio!" and James was knocked out.
"Why is he knocked out?" Sirius asked curiously.
"Well when he wakes back up, which is in about 2 minutes, the potion will no longer have any affect on him," stated Dumbledore.
"Oh good," said Sirius happily, and right on cue, James lifted his head up, and looked around the room, confused.
"Um where am I?" Then he saw Sirius and Dumbledore.
"Sirius? Professor? What the h-"
"Mr. Potter, I am sorry to say that you were given a love potion from Roxanne Wallace, and for the past 24 hours, you have been in love with her. I am glad to say that your friends realized what she did and came to your aid."
"Oh my gosh I can't believe that b-"
"You may feel a little dizzy right now," said Dumbledore interrupting him, "but you will be back to normal by tomorrow. You can be off now."
So Sirius led James out of the office and down into the hall.
"Oh my gosh Sirius! How could she do that? I am gonna kill her!" James said angrily.
"Well, Dumbledore gave her detention for a month!" Sirius stated happily.
"Cool!" said James.
Then something hit James.
"Oh my gosh! What about Lily? Does she think I'm in love with Roxanne? Oh no!" James said, hitting his forehead with his hand.
Sirius' face suddenly fell. "James, there's something I forgot to tell you. A few days ago Lily and I were walking to class and she became um very sick."
James paled. "W-what?" he whispered.
Sirius looked really upset and James had noticed that his face had been paler than usual.
"She collapsed onto the floor, and I tried to help her up, but she went unconscious. I picked her up and took her to the hospital wing but she's still not waking up. We're all really worried about her," Sirius said sadly.
"How-why? Is she in really bad condition." James felt sick upon hearing this news. He wanted to just collapse on the floor.
"I want to see her!" James told Sirius.
"Well okay b-" Sirius said, but James interrupted him.
"NO! Sirius I want to see Lily, right now! Please!" he said sadly, so Sirius led James to the hospital wing.
They stopped in front of the hospital wing doors.
"Now, James, when you go in there, Lily won't be awake. She's really weak right now," Sirius told him.
"I know, I just want to see her, that's all," James said quietly.
Sirius pushed open the doors.
James saw Remus, Doe, and Alice gathered in front of a bed where Lily must have been.
"Lily!" James said, and ran over to her bed.
When he saw her lying in that bed he wanted to scream.
She looked so weak and hopeless, and he wasn't there for her when she needed him most. It's all my fault, James thought to himself.
"James!" Alice jumped up.
"Are you okay? What happened? Where's Roxanne? W- " Doe started but Sirius interrupted her.
"Guys, look, let's go outside. I'll explain everything to you. Let's just let James have some time with Lily," he said.
They all got up and then Sirius led them out of the hospital wing, leaving James alone with Lily.
James collapsed into the chair. He grabbed Lily's hand. She looked so weak and ill. Oh this is all my fault, James thought to himself. I should have been there for her!
James just sat in that chair, holding Lily's hand, and praying that she would be alright.
When Sirius, Remus, Doe, and Alice came back about an hour later, they found James asleep in the chair holding Lily's hand.
Doe let a small tear slide down her cheek. How could something like this happen to someone so innocent? Was what Doe was thinking to herself.
Sirius wanted to cry just as much, but he held it in. He wanted to be strong for Lily, and for James.
Alice covered James in a blanket, and then sat down on a couch right by the bed that Professor McGonnagall had transfigured up for them all.
She was really upset. Madame Pomfrey had told them truthfully that she didn't really know what was wrong with Lily and that she was seriously sick.
Remus could somehow sense what Alice was feeling. She was so emotionally strong, he thought to himself.
He sat down right next to her, letting her rest her head on his shoulder and she tried to hold in her tears.
Sirius and Doe decided to get up and go get some hot chocolate for all of them, and left the wing hand in hand.
Alice had quieted down and Remus had realized she must have fallen asleep. He put his jacket over her shoulders when he noticed her shivering.
Then he looked over at Lily and James. They were wonderful people and Remus couldn't understand what they did to deserve what they got.
Tears started welling up in his eyes, and one slide down his cheek. He wiped it away quickly.
He was so tired after just finishing his transformations that he fell asleep next to Audrey.
Doe and Sirius soon came back into the hospital wing, but when they saw Remus and Audrey also asleep, but their hot chocolates on the table, which had many flowers on it that people had given to Lily when they found out about her.
Doe put a spell on the hot chocolates so that they would stay warm. Then she sat down on the couch opposite of Remus and Doe next to Sirius.
"Sirius! I can't take this! I'm so worried about Lily! And poor James! I can't believe Brianna did that to him! He must think it's all his fault. Sirius I can't take this!"
She started to cry and Sirius put his arm around her. "I know, I know Kristin. But Lily's strong! I know she's gonna pull through this. Oh I have plenty of other shirts so feel free to get this one wet if you want."
Doe couldn't help but laugh. Sirius could cheer her up no matter how upset she was.
Madame Pomfrey then entered the room. "Oh you poor dears! It's so sweet of you to stay here like this for Lily." (A/N-this is Madame Pomfrey's mother- that is why she acts different than the Madame Pomfrey we know)
"Can one of you two help me with Lily?" Madame Pomfrey said. Sirius got up. "I need you to hold her up while I give her this potion," Madame Pomfrey said.
"Okay," Sirius said, "do you know what's wrong? Can you cure Lily?" Sirius asked hopefully.
Seeing that look on Sirius' face made Madame Pomfrey want to cry. "I don't know, dear, I'm so sorry," she said, and then gave the potion to Lily.
"Alright all done," she said, so she left the room to give them time alone.
Sirius sat back down. Doe fell asleep with her head on his shoulder, and finally at about 1 am, Sirius fell asleep, too.
