A/N: Hi again. I know this chapter is only about half as long as my usual ones (only about 500 words) but I really wanted to get it up. So here it is. Once again I am soooooo thankful to all my reviewers! You keep this fic going! luv yaz all! -x-

Monique lay on her bed. She was staring at a small stain on the ceiling. It was in the early hours of the morning. James hadn't said a single word to her. No one in her dorm had. Peter especially had been giving her evils ever since. Monique rolled over. She was upset, angry and annoyed. She needed to get on that team again. But she knew it was near impossible once James had made up his mind. So she pulled the covers over her head and attempted to get some sleep.

"Lily, don't you think you were slightly harsh yesterday?" Monique said.

"No," Lily snapped, stubbornly. "James Potter deserves everything he gets." Lily was stirring lukewarm porridge round and round in the bowl at breakfast.

"But Lily−" Monique started.

"Just drop it Malcolm!" Lily snapped.

"You're the one who's supposed to have a plan! You're the one who said I can't give up!" Monique hissed.

"I know but what has this got to do with anything," Lily asked.

"I've been hanging out with James a lot and he doesn't like his pride being hurt. He's loyal and a good friend. Maybe if you went to him and apologized and suggested letting me back on the team he'd let me," Monique said. Lily sighed.

"Well that's saying goodbye to my dignity," she said.

"You mean you'll do it?" Monique grinned.

"Whatever. But only because you're my best friend," Lily said.

"That's cool," Monique said. Lily just smiled and got up. She left the Great Hall. I hope she's apoligisng and not making things worse. She has a way of doing that. God, if only she'd see how alike she and James were. They're both so stubborn.

James was scowling as he read the chapter to be summarized for his History of Magic homework. Only he wasn't actually absorbing any of the information. He was too annoyed. He'd embarrassed himself infront of the entire house and Lily had seriously dented his pride. She'd never gotten that angry at him before. Annoyed? Yes. Slightly peed off? Sure. But ballistic? No.

"James," James's head snapped off. He'd know that voice above a chorus of others.

"What?" he said, trying not to sound too excited. This was the girl who'd yelled at him just one night before.

"I just want to apologise for last night. I think I overreacted. But so did you. And it's not Malcolm's fault at all. It was just a misunderstanding," Lily said. James began to weaken. "So anyway, I'm sorry."

"Erm, me too," James said.

"Could you let Malcolm back on the team. He's a great beater," Lily said.

"Well I would but I've already gotten a new beater," james said.

"In a day?" Lily asked.

"Well a lot of people want to be on the team Lily," James said. Lily sighed and bit her lip.

"Whatever," she said, walking away. James grinned to himself and slumped down in his chair.

"This is the best day of my life," he breathed, running a hand through his disheveled hair.

"Whatever you say Prongs," Sirius laughed.
