Here is the chapter, I got done with homework way before I thought I would.
So it's still really long, but I'm going to warn you that the next will be shorter.
This chapter is just some more guilt and some surpirses.
It's also in Remus's POV, I decided that his POV on all the guilt would be good.
Not much information about it.
Remus woke up, very close to Lily, his arms wrapped around her waist.
Shocked at first, and then remembering that morning, they were 'together' something Remus only dreamt of. He turned his head to look at Sirius drooling and lipstick stains still there.
Remus turned his attention back to Lily, seeing her red her flared about her face. He thought about last night, or morning what ever they would call it. He thought of how they returned to the room, sat in bed talking, a few quick kisses (in fear of Sirius) and laughter. Remus had been staring at Lily now for twenty minutes when her eyes shot open.
She looked to see Remus and her eyes looked relieved. "I knew I felt someone watching me"
Remus chuckled "Sorry to scare you" He put a hand to push her vibrant auburn hair from her eyes. She smiled and sighed.
"I'm still very tired" She yawned.
"It's still very early" Remus said "You've slept only for about two hours, it's around eight"
Lily shook her head "It's too late I should wake up" Lily yawned.
Remus made a small laugh "You needn't wake; Sirius is still- unconscious- so to speak"
Lily smiled up at him "What about the others?" Remus pondered for a moment.
"Asleep I would suspect, on the count that if they had woken, they would have surely knocked on the door"
Lily nodded "You're right" She made another yawn "I'm going to nap" Lily rested her hand on Remus' chest and closed her eyes, before Remus could say another word, she had fallen asleep.
Remus decided staring at her would do no good; he struggled to get from the middle and made his way to the door. He walked into the corridor and into the 'lobby' which had very comforting couches. Remus took a seat on the armchair and just stared into space deep into thought.
'What are you going to do now Remus?" he sighed 'You've gotten the girl but will loose a friend in the process; you know you love her yes? Of course you do, but James, James you have known for seven years. James would never hurt you the way you will had hurt him' Another deep sigh came from within Remus' lungs. 'If only James could have fancied Adelina, then you could have Lily and be on your way' The main door opened and in walked Ted. He grinned at Remus and walked over to his desk 'What if- Ally! Perfect Ally; James could have Ally, that's it, Ally James obviously found her interesting, we'll just need to have those two connect' Remus stood up and made his way back to the corridor.
'James and Ally, equals Lily and you' Remus knocked on the door to James and Kali's room.
'If you can get James and Ally together before you announce your love for Lily, you'll be clear'
The door swung open to reveal a very upset looking Kali. She was in a pair of pajama shorts, and a tank top.
"Remus?" She said grumpily. Remus smiled at her, he was going to be killed by Kali, this very moment.
"Yes, um, could I have a word with James?" Remus asked in his sweetest tone.
Kali laughed "If you think you can wake the- the little sleeping angel- be my guest" Kali pulled Remus in and showed him a drooling James Potter.
Remus shook James "James" He bellowed. "JAMES" James stirred. "JAMES LILY IS STALKERS"
Although it pained Remus, James had shot up "Wha?" He said groggily.
Remus just put a smile on "James, there is a diner around the corner" Remus shook him a bit to keep him up "I'm starved –I know you are- my treat?"
James shook his head trying to gain his thoughts "Y-yeah sure"
Remus knew James could never reject free food. "Great get ready; I'll be in the lobby"
James nodded rubbing his eyes, Remus turned around to see a laughing Kali.
"What's so funny?" Remus asked. Kali continued laughing.
"Nothing- just-I've been trying- to wake- him for thirty minutes- and all I needed was food" Kali laughed, Remus knew this was a good opportunity to make a fool of James but insisted on making his way to the lobby leaving Kali with a wave.
Remus now sat on the same armchair he had twenty minutes ago; thinking.
'Plan is, takes James to diner, have him see Ally, get those two kids together, and live happily ever after with Lily' Remus grinned as he thought how great this would be, if his plans worked.
James now walked into the lobby; he was ruffling his hair as he scratched his stomach. With a yawn he stretched his arms.
Remus stood up from his chair. "You ready then Prongs?"
James nodded "Yeah" Remus motioned towards the entrance door which they exited from and walked their way to the diner.
"I hope the foods decent" complained James.
"Actually it's pretty good" Remus said then mentally slapping him self knowing James' next question.
"How would you know?"
Remus had to think of something quick "I got a late night snack- by myself- before I went to sleep."
James shrugged "Alright, well I'll trust your taste."
No conversation was made on the way to the diner, but once the arrived James first words were:
"Brilliant"
The same pudgy woman greeted them, in the same polite tone as she had before "How many?"
"Just two" Remus replied, a small smile had played on his face.
The woman led them to the table next to the table Remus and Lily had sat at, the one they had their first kiss at. The table Remus wished he could bronze and take home.
With great enthusiasm Ally came to the table. "Your back" she squealed.
James' eyes shot open from the once groggy to the now wide awake. "H-Hello"
Remus grinned. 'Click-Click-Check' Thought Remus. Ally smiled wide at James whose eyes were popping out.
"Jwames" She squealed "I was asking Remus- Remus right? - Yes Remus here and, I forgot her name-"Remus was quickly alarmed, Ally was talking of Lily. What to do?
Remus took a bottle of something red that was on the table and slid it off the side "Oops"
"L- Oh not a problem, I'll get that" Ally ran to the back to grab a broom. James was scowling at Remus.
'He doesn't know? SHE DIDN'T say it, he couldn't know?'
"You knew she was here" James snapped. "You didn't tell me?"
Remus sighed with relief, making James glare. "I'm sorry; I think you look dashing, if it makes you feel better?"
James narrowed his eyes at Remus "No it doesn't"
Remus thought this would be a good time to ask "I thought you love Lily?"
James looked at him for a moment his face frozen with anger "I-I do"
"Why do you care how you look then?" Remus pressed on.
"I-I like this girl Remus" James sighed "But you know I'll always love Lily"
Remus felt like punching something, preferably: himself. "I know"
James bit his lower lip as Ally returned with a broom and dust pan. She swept up the broken glass and ran to throw it away.
"Why, James?" Remus asked as he put a hand through his sandy brown hair.
"Why what?" James asked as he looked into the spoon; ruffling his hair.
"Why do you love Lily?" Remus couldn't help but ask the question he had been wondering for seven years now.
James had definitely taken this into deep thought because by the time James answered Ally had returned with their menus.
"So what do you two boys want?" Ally asked as she handed Remus a familiar sheet of parchment.
"Two- darn what was it" Remus muttered. Ally smiled at him retrieving the sheet.
"Two breakfast platters, two orange juices?"
"Yes, that's it" Remus said with a smile as Ally walked off.
"Because she's not like the others, she doesn't fawn over me" James said absentmindedly.
"So, you love the chase?" Remus asked hopeful.
James looked at Remus and shook his head. "No, no don't get me wrong I like the hard-to-get thing but, I love that she sees past all this 'most sought after' rubbish" James smiled. "She's bloody smart, a looker yeah, but she just, I-I just I find her so- unique"
As James finished Remus felt like grabbing the knife of the table and stabbing himself.
James loved Lily for the reasons Remus did not, he loved her for not being like the rest, and Remus loved her wit, her beauty, and her generous personality. They couldn't find mutual ground on loving the same woman for two different reasons.
"Moony?" James asked with a questioning look.
"Y-yeah"
"Why so interested?" James had an unreadable look "Do you –Fancy- Lily?"
Remus gulped, this is the last thing he would have thought James would ask.
"I-I of course not" Remus exclaimed. "I just wanted to know"
James nodded and shrugged it off as Ally returned to the table holding their food and drinks.
James gave Ally a weak smile, something James never did around girls.
"Lily" She squealed.
"What?" James asked looking around.
"Lily that was her name, you" She pointed to Remus with a warm smile "Were here with Lily earlier this morning, oh the cutest couple you two were"
'Well what are you suppose to do now?'
Ally walked off with a huge grin on her face, James looked rather upset.
'Fantastic the bloody muggle waitress just had to come and open her giant mouth! So obviously James isn't that daft, he knows by now something went on, he looks bloody ready to murder'
--
After they ate Ally came to give them the check when James surprisingly spoke.
"Ally, I needed to ask you something" James said with his famous grin.
"Anything for you dear Jwames" Ally smiled.
James ruffled his hair, rubbed his hands together and spoke "Will you- would you like to go out with me?"
'What? Is this not the James Potter who was expressing his love for Lily- not that this is bad of course, I mean James hasn't asked a girl out in five years, except Lily of course- Dear god, doe's he like this girl that much?'
Ally looked deep in thought before she cheerfully replied "Yeah, sure why not"
"Fantastic" Chimed James, he paid for the meal and stood up. "I'll meet you back here at- oh right we get on the road today?"
Remus took into action. "No, I'm sure I can talk to Kali, you know I'm a charmer"
James shrugged "Great, I'll meet you here at seven then?"
Ally nodded and skipped off. James looked very pleased with himself.
James and Remus walked out of the diner and back to the motel, no conversation made the entire way. A silence that neither wanted to break, both in deep thought.
'What doe's this mean?'
Finally both of them were only second away from their doors when, James stopped in his tracks; the most unreadable look on his face.
"You know what Moony, that doesn't surprise me, I always knew you fancied Evans" James sighed. "You two are very much a like. Listen I'll never get Evans, I know that for a fact, or so I feel right now." James made another deep sigh.
Remus didn't know why but he only felt worse, James obviously still loved Lily, but he was being the better friend here.
Remus nodded. James then quickly opened the door to his room, walked in and shut it behind him.
'James is taking this quite responsibly, maybe too responsible. Only person left to worry about is… Addy'
Remus opened the door to his room, he walked in and looked to see and empty bed.
Remus heard the shower running from the bathroom.
"Lily?" He asked knocking on the door. The watered stopped and the door swung open to reveal Sirius wrapped in a towel.
"Nope, your little love flower went to Amy and Adelina's room" Sirius laughed.
"What do you mean Love flower?"
"I seen you and Evans all snuggled up, and I was not unconscious"
'BLOODY HELL'
"We're not, you know- I was- Your not going to say anything right Padfoot?"
"You don't plan on telling Prongs?" Sirius asked shocked.
"I-I- he knows in a way, just well- he doesn't know we're 'together' yet"
Sirius looked as if someone had slapped him with a hot iron. "I won't, but you and Evans need to come clean"
"We-I will" Remus nodded, he felt horrible now.
Sirius sighed as he tightened the towel. "You're going to break Addy's heart"
'Oh like I don't feel bad enough, throw it in my face that a very kind, sweet, pretty, generous, crushing, never did anything wrong to me girl, is going to be heartbroken when she hears that her fancy, and her best friend are- backstabbers'
"You know Moony" Sirius sighed. "You're usually the sensible one, what happened?"
Remus shrugged. "Life, Love, and- Lily"
Sirius just shook his head in confusion and closed the bathroom door.
