Chapter 7

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lily couldn't fall back to sleep, the kiss that had just occurred had blown her mind. This must really be happening, he must like me, after all he did kiss me and ask me to a Hogsmeade weekend, she thought to herself as she starred at the ceiling, and James was fast asleep beside her.
She couldn't wait to tell Emily and Becca about what had happened. She had to pinch herself lightly to make sure this wasn't another one of her fantasies. This is real, she thought before a smile began to play across her lips. Finally she rose out of bed to head towards the shower when she noticed that James's hand was wrapped around her waist. Not wanting to wake him she slowly began to slide his hand off when he mumbled, "Just five more minutes mum," before returning to his slumber. Then she quickly got dressed and headed down towards the Great Hall, with a sweet smile across her face.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Peter felt awful about what he had done, and he knew he would really have to prove himself to James, Sirius, and most of all Remus.
The minute he had transformed back and told the guys about who was out there, his conscience was quick to make him feel incredibly guilty and rude for giving away secrets that his friends weren't ready to tell certain people. He decided today at breakfast he would muster up the courage and apologize to both his friends, and their girlfriends.
He took a quick shower and then headed towards the Great Hall in hopes of beating his friends there so that he could finally explain himself.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Emily and Becca had apparently not gotten up as early as Lily, but were quickly taking their showers and getting ready for the classes that awaited them. They were still incredibly tired from the previous nights events, but knew that if they lay in bed any longer, they might have not gotten up period.
"I wish it was a weekend," complained Becca, before yawning.
"Me too, but hey, it's already Thursday so by tomorrow the weekend would hit and we can put off all homework and just enjoy ourselves," replied Emily before yawning as well.
The two headed out the doorway as well, leaving the three guys fast asleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sirius was the first to wake up and nearly jumped at the thought that the bed was empty and he had only fifteen minutes to eat and then head towards their History of Magic class. He checked in James's room and then Remus' to see that both were still fast asleep, however that didn't last long.
"JAMES!!!! OH JAMSEY BOY!" he yelled into James' ear. James jolted awake to see his friends face right there.
"Thank you for the wake up Padfoot, damn, I was having a good dream too," he said groggily.
"Well besides the fact that we've only got 15 minutes, I thought you might want to go to class," suggest Sirius.
"Good point, however, think of a more subtle way to wake me up!" said James before heading towards the showers.
The two were soon on their way out, both jealous that Remus received a day of rest because his "condition" as it was known.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Great Hall was slowly filling with students as Peter sat down across from Lily who said a small hello before looking back over her book. Emily and Becca soon entered and didn't bother to even look his way.
"Look, I'm incredibly sorry for all of the trouble I have caused you Emily and you too Becca, I don't know what got into me, please accept my apology and forgive me?" he pleaded.
Emily sat quietly replaying what Peter had just said, she was known not to hold grudges, but incredibly forgiving, and under these circumstances, it was no different.
"Peter, I do forgive you and accept your apology, but we're not the people you really need to be apologizing to. You've got to be forgiven by James, Sirius, and Remus," she said before returning to her breakfast. Peter than turned to Becca who was still ignoring and it didn't look as though she was going to stop her silent treatment.
"Becca I know we're not on the best terms as of right now, and I know you're furious of what I did. I realize that I did deserve the punch you gave me. I can only apologize, but I'll let you have your time and just come to me when you're ready to talk to me again," said Peter before getting up and leaving the table.
Finally Lily could tell them what had happened last night.
"Guess what girls?" she said happily.
"What?" Emily and Becca said in unison.
"James asked me to a Hogsmeade weekend, and we, well, we," Lily stuttered.
"Spit it out!" yelled Emily excitedly, she had never known Lily to smile this early in the morning.
"Yea, come on Lils, what happened?"
"We kissed," Lily said simply. Her best friends apparently hadn't heard her and she let it sink in.
"WHAT?! Oh my gosh Lily, that's great! I knew this would happen," said Emily.
"No way, that's awesome, I'm happy you two finally got to liking each other. Emily you didn't know what would happen," joked Becca.
The three girls turned soon to see James and Sirius make their grand appearance in the Great Hall. Girls were drooling everywhere, but they didn't seem to take too much notice to it. They made a B-line straight for Lily, Emily, and Becca.
"Good morning ladies," said Sirius while giving a quick wink towards Becca, who began to blush.
"Took you guys long enough to get up, what late night," laughed Lily, knowing perfectly well why they were tired.
"Ha, Ha, it was another one of those long nights, and it took forever for me to finally fall asleep," said James, keeping his eyes locked with Lily's.
"Are you guys going to forgive Peter? Ever?" asked Emily.
"What he did was wrong, no doubt, but I mean, he apologized to Emily and myself, and we think you ought to hear him out, just give him a chance, alright?" pleaded Becca.
"I'm alright with it, as long as he approaches me about it like a man, however, Remus is going to be tough to win back over, he's not too proud about what he is, and considers it a very private matter. It may take him a while," answered Sirius.
"It doesn't bother me at all, but like my man Sirius said, he's got to be mature and act like a man," said James.
The group sat silently and finished their breakfast before heading off to class.

Sorry this one is the same as all the others, but I couldn't write a lot. I've been extremely busy lately and for me to get out about 1,000 - 2,000 words per chapter is really stretching it, sorry guys! Thanks to all of my wonderful reviewers!
