Over the next few weeks Lily spend more or less equal time with both Remus and James. She found that her time with the two boys was very different feeling, and she didn't know how to feel.

James was cocky. James was very cocky. He was also very into Quidditch, which he talked about a lot, as well as what he had blown up the day before. As Lily perceived it, he was overall plain immature and instead of talking with her he talked AT her.

Remus, on the other hand, was sweet. He was funny, charming, gentlemanly, interesting. They shared long conversations about worldly matters to long conversations of the contents of their refrigerators at home.

*Oh my goodness, James is a bit of an idiot, Remus is a perfect sweetie, and I'm still with James?*

"Hey Bea I think we need to girl talk." Lily said, grabbing Bea's hand and leading her to the girls' bedrooms. They plopped down on Lily's bed and Bea waited for Lily to go. "Well the thing is, I've been spending time with James and spending time with Remus. And I love Remus! He's so nice, so, I don't know, perfect!" she said wispily.

"Well then what's the problem? Loose James! I mean sure he's dreamy, Quidditch captain, rebel, that's why you liked him. But for the person that he is, that's not what attracted you." Bea said expertly.

"Did you major in psychology or what? You just know things, it's incredible! We'll anyways you're probably right. If James doesn't smarten up in," Lily thought of a time period but couldn't make one up. "If James doesn't smarten up SOON then it's over for sure!" she settled.

She walked down the hall and ran into James on her way to visit Hagrid. She smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

"Hey James, I'm going to see Hagrid, d'you want to come?" she asked taking his hand. He said nothing, but pulled her into a deep kiss. Lily did not have a problem with making out with James. But it was when he began reaching up her robes, and up her skirt that she backed away.

"James what on earth are you doing?" she said, trying to push his hand down and laughing softly. He grinned a wicked-looking grin.

"Well you mudbloods are only good for one thing, right?" he said viciously. Tears began to swell up in Lily's eyes as she backed away from James. "What, d'you think I really liked you for you? You were hot, so I decided to pretend you weren't a mudblood. I still know though and it's been hard, but I'm getting used to taking a shower after every time I see you."

"JAMES!" she shrieked. "James Potter you're disgusting and I'm never talking to you again." She said, tears still flowing down her cheeks. "AND JUST SO YOU KNOW! YOU'LL NOT HAVE ANY FRIENDS AFTER THIS. I HATE YOU JAMES POTTER!" she said turning back and running towards where she came, the common room. James snickered and followed her.

Lily ran into the common room, and James managed to catch up and slip in just after her while the portrait hole was still open. Lily and flung herself into Bea's arms and was whimpering things to all of the surrounding people. After she was finished talking all four of her surrounding friends turned to James with sickened looks on their faces.

"James, you fucking jerk!" Remus said, as he took Lily in his arms. She whispered something in his ear and Remus nodded, glaring at James.

"Well I don't REALLY want to be seen with you either wolf-boy. Or that stuttering idiot over there." He said, jerking his head towards Peter who was indeed trying to find words for what he was feeling.

"GET OUT!" Sirius roared at James completely turning away from him.

"Fine," James said shrugging, still wearing that malicious grin, as he turned away and walked out of the common room.

"How can he say something like that? You know words hurt more than broken bones that little rhyme was wrong!" Lily sobbed.

"I can't believe him! My best friend for years! And I guess I just didn't know him at all." Sirius said shaking his head and running his hands through his black wavy hair and heaving a heavy sigh.

James found himself asleep on the library table, sprawled over an open book entitled "Most Potente Potions". He didn't remember opening that book, but he had been drowsy since after dinner.

Deciding that studying had really no purpose to him without his glasses, he put the book back. He searched for his glasses for a good fifteen minutes but had no luck. So he decided that he'd have to use the spare pair he kept up in his room.

Walking down the halls he ran into Severus Snape, who was walking right towards him with his usual revolting sneer.

"Hello Potter, I found these glasses and thought that you might be the owner." He said in a sickly sweet voice. James sneered slightly and grabbed them out of Snape's hands.

"What're you doing my common room anyway?" he asked.

Snape shrugged and said, "Taking a walk, you and your friends seem to not have a problem taking a walk by MY common room do you?" he said. James didn't reply and put his glasses back on. Then he brushed past Snape and into his common room. He could hear Snape laughing and feel his eyes watching him as he climbed through the portrait hole. "Oy, he's nuts that one," James muttered to himself.

The four of them sat there for about twenty minutes before James re-entered the portrait hole, sporting his usual smile, without the cruelty and said, "Hey guys what's up? I guess I fell asleep in the library."

"What are you doing?" Lily shouted hysterically. "You can't just waltz back in here expecting us to be friends!"

James looked at Lily's face and could see she'd been crying. "Oh baby, what's wrong?" he asked. His friends looked at him as though he was mad.

"You have some nerve coming back here and acting like nothing happened you jerk!" Sirius said heatedly, his face red. James couldn't help but laugh and frown at the same time.

"Honestly, what're you all on about? I've no clue what you're talking about!" he said throwing his arms up in the air. Everyone was mad at him, which was evident. But James just had to figure out why.

"I'm going to bed," Lily said, and Bea directly followed her.

Before Bea disappeared completely up the stairs she said, "I hope you're happy James! You said she meant more to you than anything! I just don't get it!" she said. Then she too was gone into the girls' dormitories.

"I'm speaking my last word you James Potter. Now." Said Remus just before he dashed up the stairs for bed. Sirius followed Remus only shooting him a wicked glare that was very unlike Sirius, James' best friend.

The only person who remained in the common room was Peter.

"Will you tell me why everyone's mad at me or are you just as pissed off as them."

Peter slowly but surely managed to get the whole story out in about half an hour. James had always been patient with Peter, but this he was dying to hear. After the story was finally out James shook his head.

"I didn't do ANY of that! None of it I was. I guess I was in the library." He said, remembering where he had woken up.

"W-w-well I d-don't think the others a-a-are g-g-going to take I g-g-guess as a b-believable answer." Said Peter shrugging and also running off to bed.

James fell asleep by the fire thinking non-stop about what Peter had said that he had done. He didn't remember doing it, however he didn't remember being anywhere else either. The part that scared James the most was, what if he really had done it. Either way it was going to be hard to prove that he didn't and until he could prove it, he had a feeling that he would have VERY few people who supported him.

A/n: I MIGHT be able to put out one more chapter before I go to California. Hope so, but if not I'll be back around the 24th or so and more will be out then!
