Authors note: Yay! Lily is back to normal. Jeez, when I started writing this I had NO idea where it was going. Who would have thought that thing with Baz would happen. Oh well I'm pretty pleased with the result so let me know what you guys think.
Disclaimer: God, u guys already know that anything you recognize is NOT mine.
Lily stormed into the common room and strode, confidently, over to Haley and Christina.
"Listen to me," she started. "Maybe it wasn't right of me to totally ditch you guys because of Baz but that's what happened. I'm not apologizing cos I'm not wrong. I mean I can hang around with whoever I goddamn want. BUT now that this whole episode is over you can either sit here on your asses, sulking, day in day out, OR you can come to Hogsmeade with me to get a butterbeer and fill me in on what's been happening." Haley and Christina looked at her, in amazement and began to smile.
"Finally," said Christina. "It's about time that you're back to normal!" Haley nodded in agreement. Lily smiled at them both and the three linked arms and set off.
"You know what?" Lily said as they climbed into the passegeway leading to HOGSMEADE.
"What?" asked the other two.
"Dating might be a normal teenage activity," began Lily. "But I'm not exactly a normal teenager so if you guys don't mind I think boys are off my list for the moment."
""No problem," Christina answered, grinning like a Cheshire cat.
"Boys just aren't worth the bother," said Lily.
"Three butterbeers," said Lily to Rosmerta. "This is MY treat," she told her friends. Haley wasn't paying attention to Lily's speech. Instead she was waving wildly to someone at another table.
"It's Remus and them," she informed the other two. "Let's go sit with them. Lily groaned but followed her friends. Haley sat down next to Remus and Lily and Christina sat down opposite James and Sirius. James was getting off with his latest girlfriend, Sara, and Sirius was flirting, happily, with any girl who passed by. Christina rolled her eyes. Lily was staring at James and his girlfriend. Why had she never noticed how gorgeous he was?
"What are you thinking?" she asked herself. "You've given up boys and that's how its gonna stay." She turned away from James and Sara and began chatting to Christina. The whole group walked back to the castle together late that night. Lily shivered. Man it was cold and she of course hadn't brought a jacket. Lily shook her head at Remus who had just given Haley his coat. What a lovey dovey thing to do.
"God I'm glad I was never that loved up with Baz," mumbled Lily to herself.
"You say something Lil?" asked Sirius, who had forgiven her after she had delivered a speech, similar to the one Haley and Christina had gotten.
"Nope," called Lily, as Sirius, casually, wrapped his arm around Christina.
"God, what is going on in everyone's heads?" Lily asked herself. "Is the only thing everyone thinks about the opposite sex?" Sirius answered her question by kissing Christina.
"Mmblhad mluyedrt," he said, into Christina's mouth.
"No Sirius, she wasn't talking to you," said James.
"Mmk," said Sirius and he continued to kiss Lily's friend. Lily rolled her eyes.
The next day Lily walked around the grounds to clear her head. She saw James and Sara, walking ahead of her, clutching hands. Although Lily knew that Sara would be history within the next couple of days, she felt a stab of jealousy.
"I DO NOT like James," she told herself.
"Yea you do," argued her little voice.
"Nope," disagreed Lily.
"Face it, girl," started the little voice. "You're heart pounds every time he's near. You're head spins when he touches you. You get jealous every time you see him with someone else. Sure you don't like him!"
"Just get OUT of my head," thought Lily. "I do not like James Potter!"
"I don't like him," she said softly. "I don't like anyone."
James spotted Lily sitting by the lake, later that afternoon. He walked over to her. For once she wasn't smoking.
"Hey," he said.
"Great," thought Lily. "The LAST person I want to talk to right now." She didn't say this.
"Hi," she answered. "Where's Sara?" she asked.
"We broke up," said James, shortly. "So what's up with you?" he asked. "Why are you out here all alone?"
"I was thinking," said Lily slowly. She picked a piece of grass. "About something that I can't share with anyone. Not even Chris and Haley.
"Sounds serious." Lily shrugged.
"Not really." James nodded. "James?" asked Lily suddenly.
"Mmm hmm?" he asked.
"Why do you never stay with a girl longer than two weeks?" she said.
"I guess I'm searching for THE one," he said. "And none of the girls I've dated yet have been that one." Lily nodded.
"I guess I'm just gonna have to search harder," he said. "I mean she has to be out there somewhere."
"Or she could be right in front of you," thought Lily. She didn't say this. Instead she just nodded.
Sirius, Remus, Haley and Christina watched them out the window.
"They're perfect for each other," groaned Christina. "They just can't see it." The others nodded.
"It's so obvious," agreed Haley. The watched as Lily laughed at something James said.
"She likes him," said Haley suddenly. "She's just afraid of being hurt."
"Well seeing as she likes him and we're positive that he likes her we'll have to make them realize it," said Sirius, grinning. His grin was contagious.
"What do you have in mind?" asked Haley.
"Here's what we do," Sirius said.
