Hey guys! I know I said I was going to update tonight, and since I am in denial about exams tomorrow--I decided to write another chapter. Hope you like it. Please review!

Disclaimer: If you read chapter 1, it's obvious that I am no J.K. I own only what you don't recognize. Still wanting James Potter though.

The next morning, Arabella woke up in Sirius' arms. As she smiled to herself, the thought suddenly struck her that she didn't know where Lily was. Forgetting it as Sirius leaned in for a good morning kiss, she got caught up in her own moment and stopped worrying about her best friend.
***********
'Ugh. My head is killing me' I thought painfully. 'where am I? Why am I wet? Oh my god! Where's bella? Why am I outside? Why am I next to Potter?' Then I remembered. The deal. I was supposed to be his friend now. Damn Ogden and his stupid Firewhiskey for tasting so good. Well, I guess this won't be too bad. Everyone seems to like him.
"James....James..."I tried to wake him up. "JAMES EDWARD POTTER! IF YOU DON'T GET YOUR SORRY ASS UP RIGHT NOW, I'LL---"
"You'll do what, firecracker?" He said, grinning at me. "Remember, you have to be nice to me now and treat me the way you treat the rest of my friends." I don't remember that part of the agreement, but I smile and retort-"That goes both ways Potter. I'm going inside to find a cure for a hangover and to get dressed. You can come if you want and dry your clothes."
So, we rose(slowly but painfully) and headed towards Bella's house. I left James in the kitchen with Hermux's Patented Hangover Cure and went up to get dressed for the day. On my way up the stairs, I saw Sirius walking toward the bathroom with a huge grin plastered across his face.
"Good night, eh?" I ask.
He replies "You have no idea...."
"No offense, Riri, but I don't think I want to know. See you downstairs in a minute."
He nodded and I continued to my room. After gettingdressed in shorts and a tank top, I went downstairs. I was caught by surprise as James swept me up into a huge hug and said "Good morning Firecracker!"
I knew he was just trying to embarass me, so I replied "Same to you four eyes!", but I tried to keep the smile on my face so he would know I was just kidding.
He finally put me down and we turned only to see Sirius and Bella staring there with looks of shock on their faces. I giggled, but realized they had to be surprised. I mean, only yesterday, we rarely spoke and never smiled at eachother. Ah well.
We ate breakfast, but then Sirius and James had to leave as they were having lunch with James' parents. What I wouldn't give to have lunch with my parents.....but anyways, we said goodbye and they flooed home (A/N: is flooed a verb? If not, it should be).
Arabella suddenly turned to me, sat me in a kitchen chair, and said in a very serious voice, "I want to know everything."
Laughing, I leaned back in my chair and began to tell the story.....

Chapter 3: The Ride to Hogwarts
What will everyone think? Gasp....

I know this chapter was pretty short--I try to make them long, but I thought this seemed like a good stopping point. Anyways, please review--it would make my night!
