Chapter 18:
"Everyone wants what they can't have, and James thinks he deserves everything and everyone. The fact that you hated him made his game more fun. STOP TRYING TO IRRERUPT ME!" Sirius scowled. "Now as I was saying, we changed you. You were perfect; you were nice to everyone and popular for your first five years at Hogwarts. But then James, Lupin and I convinced."
"Whatever! I was not popular!"
"Lily you were too! You were friends with everyone, well excluding the Slytherins, but they don't count. You were popular. So we convinced Brit, Jia and Bella to make you one of us, a Marauder. So you weren't as nice anymore, but you were much more popular. Unfortunately, the plan seemed to have failed! You still didn't like Potter, but that never stopped him, and eventually the girls convinced you. I don't know how they did it, but you actually danced with him, THE DANCE. We were shocked, and then YOU did that the defending thing again. It ruined ALL of our plans! So there we were, you were a Marauder, but the idea of you and James together seemed doomed. And then Lupin does the worst thing possible- he starts liking you! That started the first big fight in our friendships! So, you and Moony break up, I still don't know why, but we will get to that later. And now you are actually thinking of leaving the Marauders and going out with Josh? You killed the Marauders and you can not and might I add, WILL NOT leave it like this." Sirius breathed deeply, though he seemed relieved to have said it all. "Sirius. You mean Brittany was right? That the only reason I was in the group was because of James? God! I can't believe how insensitive and horrible you all are!" Lily's eyes were filled with tears, and she headed for the door.
"Wait! NO!" He sighed, "Don't make this about you! This is about the group! THE MARAUDERS! IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE ABOUT THE MARAUDERS!" But Lily was already crying in the bathroom. "NO! Lily? LILY? Read your diary Lily. I know you keep one. Read it! Why would a smart girl waste her time with writing pages upon pages about a guy she hates? Why? WHY? YOU TWO BELONG TOGETHER THAT'S WHY!"
Black was shaking, and Lily heard her door slam as he left. She pulled herself off the bathroom floor and dried her eyes. /No, you won't cry anymore about this. / She vowed. She walked up to her bed, and shaking opened a small leather bound book.
