James* POV:

Lily dropped my hand as we neared the door of Compartment #3. The warmth from my hand left almost immediately and was replace by a cold icy feeling. Despite the numb feeling, I opened the door for Lily. We found Lupin and Black sprawled out on the seats in their new black Hogwarts robes.

**Did Lily scare you?** Remus said as if he were talking to a three year old.

Before I could retort, Sirius teased, **God, the way you ran out of here running made you look like you were the girl. ...No offense, Lily.**

**Haha! Padfoot. Very funny. But if I recall youÕre the one still sleeping in footie pajamas!** I said.

**Footies?!** Lily giggled.

**I do not!!!** Sirius screeched.

**Before you get into that oh so touching story of how your mum knit them, I must tell you that me and Lily and I still need to change,** I said.
Sirius waved Lily and me off. We grabbed our rooms and parted, heading to the restrooms. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

LilyÕs POV:

**Hey, Alli!** I called as I entered the Great Hall. Alli, my best friend in the world, ran over and enveloped me in a huge hug. **Oh, I have missed you so much,** I whispered, blinking back the tears.

**WhatÕs wrong?** Alli said, letting go. Her big brown eyes flooded with concern. Ever since the first day of school Alli had been there always protecting me from the names and pranks the Slytherins had played on me. They loved to tease me just because I was a **Mudblood,** as they would say. Alli was the kind of friend a girl could only dream about.

**Petunia. I swear her head is swollen. Since Vernon proposed, she has been torturing me to death. I think she figures she has to get in as much tormenting as possible before she moves. **

**Forget her, by the time winter vacation comes around, she will be gone,** Alli said as we walked to the Gryffindor. **So, how is it going with you and Sirius.?**

**ItÕs wonderful. We were able to meet up over the summer a couple of times.**

**Are you talking about me?** Sirius asked looking up.

I smiled, then sat down next to him and said, **Yes, we were.**

**We were talking about Lily being absolutely smitten over you! She thinks your a big hunk and wants to snog!!!!** Alli said passionately sitting down next to me.

**Oh, really?** Remus raised an eyebrow, the corners of his mouth twitching as if he was trying not to laugh. He was sitting next to James across from us.

**I did not say that,** I shrieked.

**You donÕt think I am handsome? Then I donÕt wanna kiss you either,** Sirius said giving me a pouty look.

**Of course you are beautiful, Sirius,** I said.

**Do you I get a kiss then?** Sirius said as if he were a very hopeful four year old.

**I guess...** I said. I wasn*t a big fan of kissing in front of a audience. I quickly leaned over and kissed Sirius on the lips.

The whole time I was talking to Sirius, I never realized James hadn*t said a single word, that he was just staring. And the thing everyone missed was the painful look James got in his eyes when I leaned over and kissed Sirius. The kind of look I never wanted to give anyone.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

James POV:

**So, what did you want to talk about?** I said as me and Remus entered the empty 5th year dorm. I was trying not to show the hurt in voice. It was just hard to not be upset when your best friend kisses the girl you really like, especially when he doesn*t even know he is.

**You know what!** Remus exclaimed.

**No I don*t** I lied.

**Do, too!**

**Do not!**

**Do, too!**

**Do not!**

**Oh fine then, I give up. What was up with what happened this afternoon? You were in awe when Sirius and Lily kissed. Haven*t you ever seen Padfoot lock lips with a girl?** Remus asked.

**No- I mean yes. It*s just that...** I started to say. **No never mind.**

**No, what?**

**No, it*t nothing.**

**Come on!** Remus pried.

**There is nothing!!!** I practically yelled.

**It has to be something if it is bothering you so much!!!** Remus said, obviously getting annoyed.
**Okay so maybe there is something...** I replied. ~How am I gonna say this without sounding completely stupid or jealous?~ I wondered.

**Come out with it already, James,** Remus said impatiently.

**I like Lily,** I blurted out. ~Whew, itÕs over.~

**Oh,** Remus said quietly. **How long?**

**I dunno,ever since I broke up with Pam Johnson in second year.**

**But you have had other girlfriends between then and now,** Remus exclaimed.

**I didn*t really like them though,** I replied. **I didn*t want people to start wondering.**

**Oh, what can we do? I mean you like Lily a lot and Sirius is going out with her. This could completely screw up our friendship,** Remus mused.

**And this is hard for you? Imagine what it is like for me,** I said.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Sirius* POV:

I knew something was up the minute I walked through the dorm door. James was hanging upside down off the edge of his bed with his thick, round, black glasses on the floor. He was just staring off into space.

Remus was on his bed reading. He looked up when I entered. I pointed at James and gave Remus a questioning look. *DonÕt ask,* Remus mouthed. I shrugged my shoulders and went over to my own bed that had a red velvet cover with matching curtains. I sat down and pulled the curtains around me. I grabbed my notebook and started to write.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Lily*s POV:

Alli and I sat on the floor of our dorm, after dinner, with Pam Johnson and Alex Kinling, our friends and roomies.

**So, now that were back together we need to catch up,** Pam said. **I was think a little truth or dare.**

**Okay,** the rest of us agreed.

**I will start. Truth or Dare... Alex,** Pam said.

**Truth.**

**Hmmm... What is the biggest lie you have ever kept from your parents?** Pam asked.

**That I once snuck out with Ted from Ravenclaw during summer,** Alex said. She had chocolate colored skin, big brown eyes and tight black ringlets. **I know what you guys are thinking, incredibly lame but hey my parents are strict and it is hard to pass anything under their noses. So my turn. Alli truth or dare?**

**Definitely dare.**

**I dare you to go up to Peter, tell him he is a hot stud then kiss him on the lips. No exceptions.**

**Sure,** Alli agreed. We all knew she couldn*t stand Peter but then again, Alli never turns down a dare. We stood up and went down to the common room. Peter was nowhere in sight so we went to the boys dormitory.

Alli knocked on the door and Lupin answered. **Good evening ladies,** he said when he opened the door. **Would you like to join us?**

**Uh... sure!** I said as I walked through the door. I looked to see Sirius and Peter playing wizarding chess on the floor. James was laying on his bed with his eyes closed.

**Prongs, we have guests,** Remus declared.

**Wha... hmm?** James said sitting up. He sat up and smiled sleepily. **Oh, hi.**

**Did you girls come to hang out?** Sirius asked looking at me.

Alli took over and said, **Actually there is something I would like to get off my chest. Something that I have kept bottled up inside all summer. If I don*t say it know I think I will explode. Peter would you come here?**

Peter nodded and came to stand in front of Alli. He looked a little confused. I actually felt sorry for him. ~Wait! Me pitying Peter? NO... WAY!!!~

**Peter... Peter, I don*t know how to say this but,** Alli grabbed Peter*s hands and went into full drama mode, **I think you are a hot stud, and I love you.** Alli then leaned over and gave Peter a wet, sloppy kiss on the mouth.

**Wow... Wow...** was all Peter could say when Alli let go. His green eyes were huge and he was even paler than his white blonde hair.
**Well, now that that is over I think we shall be going,** Alli said. **It was nice seeing you, Ta Ta!** Alli gave a little wave then we left all the boys in udder shock.

Oh, my gosh! I think he actually believed you!!!** Alex said as we walked into our rooms.

**He was so pale!** Pam piped up, her blue eyes shining, framed by her frizzy brown locks.

**Did you see how Sirius, Remus and Sirius were just as shocked as Peter?** I asked.

**I want to forget that my lips ever touched Peter so lets get on with the game, okay?** Alli said sitting down, the rest of us following. **Lily truth or dare?**

**Dare,** I said wondering what kind of crazy stunt Alli would come up with.

**Okay, you have to fly over to the boys dorm in one hour. Knock on the window. When Sirius opens it ask him if he would like to go on a moonlight ride,** Alli said excitedly.

**Deal.** I said nervously.

An hour later I had changed into red Qudditch robes and was climbing onto the windowsill.

**Good luck!** Pam whispered as I mounted my broom and flew left to locate the boys dorm. I counted the windows as I flew by until I was 10 away from my own. It was two dark to see inside but after five years of being here I knew the layout of Hogwarts pretty well.

I took a big breath then squeezed my eyes shut as I knocked. ~Sirius is going to think I am so weird after this,~ was all I could think.

I kept my eyes closed as Sirius opened the window. **Would you like to come for a ride,** I said quietly.

Silence.

Silence.

Silence.

Silence.

I opened my eyes to find myself face to face with not Sirius Black, but a very confused James Potter.
