Authors note: So little reviews. I'm going on strike one of these days. *Laughs* not anytime soon. I'm afraid this chapter might change the Remus/Lily outlook a little, but I haven't decided the end. I'm really getting those Snape/Malfoy group to be zapped a lot. I know this isn't such a good story so I am expecting to see flames even if I say no, but I'll just use them to roast my marshmallows.=^.^=

Lily's thoughts in ~~ Remus's thoughts in ** and James thoughts in ##

Sorry for the typo's

-----------------------------------

Lily and Remus dragged on until they were out by the lake, and far out of ear shot of anyone. "Did I do something wrong? I thought we were suppose to act." He said innocently.

She brushed past him and leaned against a tree. Snow falling onto her fire red hair.

"Its not that we were suppose to act but I don't think they bought that." She sighed, knees deep in snow.

"I don't know, I'm sure they did...you noticed James was staring daggers at you right."

Lily chucked at that. It was nice to see her happy again about James for once.

"Do me a favor and call me V.o.l for L.O.V Lily of the Valley. It was my nickname Maya gave me." She blurted, but Remus didn't pay much attention, he looked passed her with a despising stare.

Lily also turned around, Malfoy, Snape, and some of the other boys were coming toward them.

~Just what I need.~ "Hey Lupin, I see you've found another person to protect you." Snape sneered at them, no doubt mad at what happened before.

"Take a hike Snape." Lily hissed sticking her middle finger up at him.

"Oh no what do I do... she doesn't what us here? HA! What a joke." Malfoy flicked her off back.

Lily reached into her robe for her wand. Where was it? It wasn't in her robe.

~No I left my wand back at the dorm! Remus you better have yours.~

*Lily do something, I don't have my wand.*

"What afraid to fight, afraid to get your ass kicked." The boys cracked up.

Behind them a few words were muttered, and the boys froze. Behind them James was muttering spells and curses. Then pushed them onto the ground. They couldn't move. James had froze all of the boys except for Remus solid.

"James what are you doing here?!" Lily said coldly, and turned away from his face. He grinned at her.

"Save it, I'm here to talk to Remus." He shot out, giving her the you-look-cute-when-your-mad-my-love.

But Lily didn't catch that. James shuffled over to Remus who was just watching the show.

"Hey, I broke up with Casey Wind." He said simply.

"What?!!?!" Remus and Lily exclaimed at once.

James moved closer to Remus, so Lily couldn't hear.

"I still like Lily, but since your dating-" A grin appeared on his face. "Your not afraid of a little competition?"

Remus seemed shocked by this. James extended his hand. "Bring it on..." Remus muttered, shaking James hand.

His mischief, rare, but mischief making smile appeared on his face. The Yule ball was coming again soon, so they both would have their chance.

======

Nothing really happens until the day before the Yule ball...

======

"Hey Lily do you want to go to the dance?" James walked over to her in the command room.

She was settled by the fire, working on her charms homework. Not even looking up at him, she replied.

"Yes I would like to go to the Yule ball, not with you. I suppose you've already asked some other girl. If not Casey Wind, probably some other one. After all you said you could get any girl without me." She shot him the coldest look there was.

"Lily why are you still pissed at that." He barked, laying a gentle hand on her arm.

(Lily's thoughts in ~~ James is in ## Remus's in ** and Sirius's in )

~He so warm... what am I thinking! This is James Potter we are talking about. The jerk!~

# Man she's so cold, she must have me scared to death or something...#

"James if you recall when we got in that fight, you said 'I could get any girl I wanted to.'"

James was taken a back, the walked in front of her.

~He won't let me go...~

"Well that obviously not true... Lily... I love you...I always have.... I was just mad....."

He leaned forward and kissed her.

~What should I do? Pull away....Slap him, kick him, punch him, push him, shove him, hit him, yell for help from what I wanted all along?~

Lily thought deeply until they broke away from each other. Lily was speechless, James was shocked. Not even he was planning to do that. It reminded them of there good old days, when there wasn't a moment they wouldn't be kissing. Is that coming back? What made them break up in the first place? What was Lily going to do?

--Flashback to the fight--

"James why did you do that to Maya?" It was Lily's voice

"It was just a prank." It was James voice

"Just a prank! She got ink all over her. You have the stupidest pranks sometimes. And I thought you didn't do them to Maya!"

"Stop being so stuck up! I mean it was funny. She's always such a book worm."

"A WHAT!!! YOUR SO COLD! MAYA IS NOT!!!"

"If you haven't looked at her recently! Stop thinking her as a friend and take a glance at her. Your looking at her the wrong way!"

"OH SO THAT'S IT. AND I BET YOU REALLY KNOW WHAT DOESN'T MEET THE EYE ABOUT ME! RIGHT! MAYBE I SHOULD GO JUMP IN A DITCH BECAUSE MY BOYFRIEND IS A LOSER."

"I can get any girl I want."

"Oh well then you do that! Its over." Lily had shoved him, and ran out crying.

James had been shocked at what he said, and knowing he didn't really mean it Casey Wind came along....

-End of flash back-

A/N: Ok, Its not getting rid of Remus yet. But it will be competition.
