Don't sue, no point. *^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^* James dashed into the Gryffindor common room. "Where's the fire?" Remus asked. He and Sirius were studying on the couch. "Oh, thank Merlin, you're back, Prongs! Moony actually talked me into studying! I thought I was going to die of boredom!" Remus rolled his eyes. "So.anyway.why were you in such a hurry?" "You'll never believe it! I-" Just then the common room door swung open. Peter was standing there, his face and his hair damp and he seemed to be smelled like.chowder. As he walked in he started hyperventilating. Remus looked at him. "What happened, Wormtail?" "Oh it was terrible! There was a food fight in the cafeteria! I hit someone with my orange, but all of a sudden someone hit me in the head with an apple and I fell right into my clam chowder! I was drowning in my-IT IS NOT FUNNY! I could have died!" James, Remus, and Sirius were all snickering. "Sorry! Sorry!" Sirius started, "But that's the first time I've ever heard of death by soup!" This made them laugh even more. Peter shook his head. "Ok, but James was just about to tell us something!" Remus said. "Oh? What's going on?" "Ok. Well, You'll never believe it. I got Lily to go to Hogsmeade with me!" "Lily as in Lily Evens?! Are you bloody serious?!" James nodded. "Damn, you'll be on a date with one of the hottest girls in Gryffindor." Remus said. "Not just that', Sirius added, 'But this means you'll have finally gone out with all the 6th year girls in Gryffindor!" "I know!" James laughed. Remus looked at them. "Don't you guys even feel a little bit bad, by going out with all these girls, even though you don't like them?" "Hey, I like Lily. And all the other girls I went out with." "Yeah, well what about Dana, or Charlotte, or Chrissie, or Jenna, or Belinda, not to mention Sally and Emil-" "OK! I get it! But that's what I have to do to be popular, and besides, it makes things more interesting! I mean come on, could you really just date one girl forever? It's so boring!" Sirius agreed. "You're siding with him?" "Yes, Moony, lighten up, jeez!" Remus gave up, and they all started laughing again, but little did they know, Lily was watch and listening, tears glistening in her eyes, from behind the partially open common room entrance. *****************************
