Disclaimer: You know, it's just easier to say I own nothing, even though I do own some of the characters and plot. I don't really care if any1 uses my characters as long as they don't mess them up.
I own Nothing!
Reviwers- thank you guys so much, especially Star, who has reviewed every time I updated. *hands Reviewers lollipops*
Snowflake- Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try and put more pranks in and I'll put in a bet too.
Also thanks to Shieldmaiden64 for the wonderful review!
Ok to clear up any confusion, Lily and James are going to "hate" each from first year until the beginning of fifth. When they become prefects they become friends and you know the rest.
Ok then, here's chap. 8!

The friends sat quietly in the common room after breakfast the next morning. They tried making conversation, but they all eventually drifted off into they're own thoughts.
James sat holding his head between his hands. 'How could this be? There had to have been a mistake.' He mentally shook himself. There was no mistake. Kind, thoughtful Remus became a full-fledged monster once a month.
The portrait opened. The first years all raised their heads to see Remus, looking pale and weak.
He quickly joined them, a smile on his face that didn't quite reach his eyes.
James exchanged a look with Sirius and the others. He took a deep breath.
"Uh, Remus?"
"Yah?" he replied, his eyes flitting across his friend's faces nervously.
"Maybe we should talk about this in our room," Peter suggested quietly. (He had been informed the night before about what had been discovered.)
The rest nodded their agreement and filed up the stairs to the boy's dormitory. They got quite a few stares at this, for James and Sirius had never been seen so quiet in all their time at Hogwarts.
Remus sat tensely on the edge of the seat while the other boys took places around him and the girls seated themselves.
James began again. "Remus, we know you're a ... werewolf."
Remus buried his face in his hands. "Don't you guys hate me?" came his muffled voice.
"Hate you?" Sirius asked, surprised. "You must not think of us very highly if you think we'd ditch you for a little thing like that!"
They laughed a bit, relaxing the mood.
When Remus lifted his head, his cheeks were streaked with tears. "I thought you guys would desert me."
"We would never do that!" Lily said, hugging him.
His eyes filled with tears again. "You guys are the best-" He was cut off by everyone pouncing on him, hugging and laughing.
A few minutes later, they were all again sitting calmly.
"How'd you find out?" Remus asked.
Sam answered. "Sirius and James saw you going out to the Willow yesterday. They suspected something and went to the library."
"Wait, you actually expect me to believe they went in the library?" Remus interrupted. "I mean, not for a detention?"
The two had already served about forty detentions that year and were hoping for a hundred by the end of the year.
Sam rolled her eyes. "Well, they did. They checked the lunar charts and saw that you were missing whenever there was a full moon."
"I can't believe you all still want to be my friends,: Remus said quietly, smiling softly.
"Well get used to it!" Sirius said loudly, making them all laugh.
"Come on, we had better get going. Herbology starts in ten minutes," Christine said, standing up. They all followed suit and headed for the door.

Later that day, after classes had begun, the Griffindor first years were walking to lunch, chatting about the amazing Transfiguration lesson they had just had. James caught Sirius' eye and nodded at Lily, who was waving around a small notebook she held in her hand as she talked animatedly to Elly.
Sirius grinned evilly and winked. He strolled forward casually until he was right behind Lily. He reached out and snatched the notebook from her and tossed it to James.
Lily turned furiously. She saw James dangling her book above her, smirking. She reached out for it, but him being taller easily held it out of range.
"Potter! Give that back!" she yelled, jumping for it, but missing as James threw the notebook back to Sirius.
"Give it here, Sirius!" she said, frustrated, holding out her hand. Sirius answered by tossing it in the air.
Before James could grab it. Lily leapt up and grabbed it in mid-air. She marched off, her nose in the air.
James and Sirius looked at each other, completely stunned. Sirius shook his head.
"That girl never fails to amaze me," he said, looking after the redhead, her curls bouncing defiantly off her shoulders.
