Chapter Two:
The Answers of One
That night, Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs explored Hogsmead for the millionth time. It was starting to get dull.

While they walked back, James told his friends about his after-dinner encounter with Lily.
"She said 'For you information, Potter, some of us actually do our homework.' and then ran off. I heard Molly Weasley telling Bertha Jorkins that Lily always gets really pale after Divination. We have break after Divination, and we always fight during break. But she never looks pale..." James told them, completely bemused.

"Maybe Evans likes you?" Peter put in thoughtfully.
"Nah. I saw Evans get pale the other day after a fight with that one girl.....what's her name?" James puzzled.
"Malorie McKormic?" Remus helpfully put in.
"Yeah, her. It was strange......" James said.
"Maybe she gets weak after arguments...." Sirius said.
"That MUST be it!" exclaimed Peter as they got to the common room.
"yes..." James said absently "It must..."
