~ Chapter Numero Dos ~ Dunno what to call this
Remus arrived home around 3 in the morning. He opened the door and tried to walk inside quietly, but found that most of the lights were still on. He walked into the living room and found Sirius and Ali, asleep on the couch, arms wrapped around each other.
He smiled and walked upstairs, passing Sirius and James's room. Inside James's room was another sleeping couple, looking snug and warm, curled up together.
Remus went into his room and fell asleep, setting his alarm clock for 8 o'clock.
~***~
8 o'clock
Ali smelt something yummy in the kitchen. "Sirius. Siri. . .wake up," Ali murmured to the sleeping boy next to her.
(A/N: See? Even though they're like, almost 19, I still think of them as **boys and girls**)
"Huh?" Sirius muttered thickly.
"Wake up!"
"Oh," he yawned. "Ok."
Sirius got up, stretched and kissed Ali on the cheek. They walked into the kitchen together, watching Remus cook some breakfast.
"Have a busy night?" he joked.
"Not cool, Moony," Sirius said, frowning.
"What? There was another possible make-out couple in James's room. . ."
"We were NOT making out."
"Oh, so it was more than that, eh?" Remus insisted, laughing.
"Nuh-uh! We just weren't making out!"
"Sirius, yes we were," Ali pointed out.
"Oh. We WERE making out, then," Sirius confirmed.
Remus and Ali both sighed and rolled their eyes.
"How d'you put up with him, Als?" Remus asked.
"I dunno. I think I only keep him cuz he's such a good kisser," Ali said.
"Hey!" Sirius exclaimed.
*~*
"JAMES," Lily said loudly.
"What now?" James mumbled.
"Get up," Lily ordered. "I think everyone else is. And Ali and I weren't supposed to stay the night!"
"So what?"
Lily shrugged. "Ali and I have to WORK. We don't get weekends off. As a matter of fact, I do believe that you're working today as well?"
"Oh, crud, you're right!"
James jumped out of bed and pulled out some non-wrinkly clothes, changed and headed downstairs with Lily.
"Hey, Moony, can I get a cup of coffee, please?"
"Yeah."
James sat down hurridly buttered some toast. Remus handed him a cup of coffee.
"Ali!" Lily said "We've gotta go!"
"Why?" Ali replyed, happy in the company of her boyfriend. Lily gave her a look.
"Oh, jeez! You're right! Sorry, boys, we've gotta go, we're running late!" Ali yelped, scarfing down some bread and kissing Sirius on the cheek. "See you later!"
"Bye!" Sirius called as she rushed out the door.
"Have a good day," Lily said to James, kissing him softly. "See ya."
"You too. I'll talk to you later."
Lily ran out the door back home so she could quickly get ready as James Dissaparated.
*~*
"Hey, um, Padfoot? Moony? I need to talk to you guys. . ." James began uncomfortably after work.
They were eating dinner and usually they talked about their day.
"Yo, shoot, man," Sirius said, nawing on some chicken.
James took a deep breath. "I'm thinking about poppin' the question," he said quickly.
Remus spat out his soda. "You what?"
"Pop the question? To who?" Sirius asked, trying to clean up what he had also spit out.
"To a moose, Padfoot," James said sarcastically.
When Sirius looked downright confused, James clarified for him "To Lily! DUH!"
"Oh. . ."
"So, you're going to ask her? When?" Remus wanted to know.
"Well, I want to ask her. But I'm not sure if I should, you know? I mean. . .what if she's not ready? She's not even 19 yet."
"You are."
"But she's not. And you know she likes to feel ready about EVERYTHING."
"True. . ."
"How about," Sirius offered "I get Ali to talk to her. Find out if she's ready or not."
"Well. . .I would, but then I'd feel like I was cheating or something. I mean, I'd know what she'd say to me before I even asked her."
"Yeah."
"I just wanted to let you guys know."
"Cool, dude."
*~*
"So, what would you do if James proposed?" Ali asked her friend.
The two girls were sitting cross-legged on Lily's bed, talking as if they were still at Hogwarts, still 15 years old, still gossiping about the latest.
"I dunno. I mean, I love him and all. . .but am I ready?" Lily answered.
"You should know!" Ali responded.
Lily smiled. "Yeah, I am ready. And this is JAMES we're talking about. This isn't gonna happen for a long time."
"I dunno," Ali said with a smile "people can surprise you."
*~*
(A/N: Just to clarify, Sirius DIDN'T ask Ali to ask Lily, this is just a coincidence... Quell Coincedence!)
A few weeks later. . .
"Hello?" Lily said. The phone had rung.
"Lily," James said into the phone.
"Oh, hey James," Lily said good-naturedly, continuing to paint her nails. She balanced the phone between her shoulder and neck.
"Um, hi. . .A-are you busy to-tonight?"
"Uh, no I don't think so."
"Good. Er, d'you want to go out somewhere?"
"Sure!" Lily said excitedly.
"Cool, er, we're going somewhere nice, so dress up, ok? I'll pick you up around. . .7?" James said nervously.
"Yeah, ok. And James?"
"Yeah?"
"Are you ok? You seem kind of-"
"I'm fine," James said quickly. "See you at 7?"
"Yeah. Bye! Love you!"
"Yeah, me too. See ya."
~*~*~*~*~end of call*~*~*~*~
"So what's happening?" Ali asked.
"James and I are going out tonight," Lily said simply.
"Oh." The girls continued to do their nails, until Lily looked up again.
"James sounded. . .odd."
"Really?" Ali asked. She grinned. Sirius had told her what James planned to do, and she had kept her word of not telling Lily.
"Yeah, I dunno why though."
"Oh my gosh! We've got to get you ready!" Ali cried. She pulled her friend's arm into the large walking closet and started trying to match her up with some cute clothes.
"Als, what-what are you doing?" Lily yelped.
"You've got to look nice!"
"But this is just a normal date!"
"Well, you never know!" Ali said desperately.
"But-"
"Don't argue with me Miss Evans!" Ali snapped 'Soon to be Mrs. Potter,' she couldn't help thinking.
(A/N: More later!
If anyone cares, school was. . .ok, actually. I like being a 8th grader!!!
My friend is being a butt because he promised to do something and now he's bailing on everyone so yeah.
