Sirius and Remus said good night to the girls and walked up to the
dormitory. When they got there they saw that Issac and Peter had already
gone to sleep and James was pacing back and forth. James was also mumbling
things incoherently.
"James?" Remus said.
"What, oh. How is she, I was so stupid this morning, she's pissed isn't she." James said and Sirius smirked. James and Sirius were best friends. If saw one you, the other was not far behind. So, when they got into fights it really didn't last more then 24 hours.
"Buddy old pal, haven?t you figured it out? Your in LLLLOOOOVVVVEEEE with her."
"No I'm not!"
"Right, anyhow she's fine, yes, you were extremely stupid this morning but she's not pissed at you or Sirius for any reason." Remus supplied.
"Really?!" James asked.
"Yes." Remus said. "Now I have to go to bed I am tired. We looked for Lily all over the castle before we found her. Good night!"
"WE have to prank someone." Sirius said out of the blue.
"Who exactly is *someone*?"
"Mia? Snape? Malfoy? Slytherins? Your Choice."
"Well I am going to have problems with Mia tomorrow so sure! Mia it is!"
"We first have to sneak into the girls dorm."
"Easier, said then done. If we try the steps, they become a slippery thingy and we fall back down."
"JUMP!"
"Why, not? Lets do it. Here's an idea??
~*~*~
The next morning Mia woke up and took a shower. When she got out and looked in the mirror, she saw her hair had turned lime green. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! Everyone in the Gryffindor tower woke up after that piercing scream. All the girls in the dorm looked at Mia and started bursting out laughing, with the exception of Ashley and Mia. (a/n: That would mean Bella, Kellie and Lily)
"Umm.Mia, nice, umm.thing you did with your hair." Bella said, then burst out laughing. Mia left in a huff. Lily, Bella and Kellie finished getting dressed, and went down in the common room.
"Nice job." Bella said, as they sat down next to the boys.
"What on earth are you talking about?" Sirius asked in mock innocence.
"That's what I thought." Bella sat on his lap and started a deep passionate kiss.
"Get a room." Kellie said rolling her eyes
"I kind of like it here." Sirius said. "So what to do on a day like this?"
"In your case- snog. In my case, apologize." James said.
"True."
"Lily, can I talk to you?"
"Sure." James took Lily to the other side of the common room to talk.
"I bet they kiss." Sirius said.
"3 galleons says they don't." Remus said.
"You guys bet on your best friend?" Bella said.
"Yeah! It's so much fun." Sirius said.
"Only when he brings it up." Remus said.
"Ohh."
~*~*~
"Listen Lily, I'm really sorry about yesterday. I was a real jerk. I was just so angry that you were ignoring me all week, so I went and kissed Mia and then was all pricky with you. And I'm really, really sorry. Please forgive me." James said very fast.
"First of all, slow down. And second of all- I forgive you. And I'm really sorry I overreacted about you guys trying to help me and being intrusive and stuff, you forgive me?"
"Always." James smiled and Lily and Lily smiled back.
~*~*~
"Kiss, Kiss, Kiss." Sirius was chanting only loud enough for Remus, Kellie and Bella to hear. Kellie smacked him upside the head.
"OW!!!"
"Shut up, will you?"
"Kiss, Kiss, Kiss."
~*~*~
James and Lily were absentmindedly moving closer.
"J-James."
"Lily?"
"We shouldn't do this."
"Do what?"
"Kiss."
"We aren't."
"What?"
"My guess- Sirius bet Remus we were going to kiss so I'm going to make it look like we almost kiss then you walk back a step, okay?"
"Okay." James bent down just far enough so that they would look like they hadn't kissed yet and like James told Lily to do, she backed away. James and Lily walked back and saw Sirius' face. They both started cracking up.
"Why are you two laughing?" Kellie asked.
"Because, I knew the bet. Now I know Sirius was the one who bet for the kiss."
"Damn you!" Sirius said, and folded his arms against his chest.
"Right. Now we've got nothing to do."
"Quidditch match?" Bella asked.
"Next week." James and Sirius said in universe.
"Let me see the map." Lily said.
"What! How did you know about that?!" James said, looking at Lily.
"Everyone does. Just let me see it." James went up to the dormitory and gave Lily the parchment. Lily took out her wand and said.
"I solemnly swear I am up to no good. Just what I thought."
"What?"
"You don't have the fairy room or the passageway to Monstrone's personal ingredients."
"Monstrone's p-personal ingredients?" James said, eyes widening.
"Yep. You have a memory charm on this, right?"
"Yeah." James said.
"Okay, then I shall show you the way." Lily said. James and Lily left.
"So, you picked me to take." James said.
"Yep."
"Why not Sirius, Remus or Peter?"
"Because, Sirius is dating Bella and she gets jealous very easily. Kellie, well you know, Bella would probably persuade Kellie into thinking I like Remus, and I didn't pick Peter because his presence is missing yet again."
"Oh."
"Yep."
"So, why do you know about this passageway to Monstrone's personal collection?"
"Kellie found it."
"Oh."
"Yea, I found the fairy room."
"Oh, what do you mean fairy room?"
"I mean exactly that -fairy room. It has a whole room of fairies in it."
"Really, well you know we don't have to go there."
"Why do you not want to go to my not-so-secret hideout?"
"Bad experience."
"*Your* afraid of *fairies*"
"If you must know, yes, and I'm not the only one- Sirius and Peter are to!" Lily burst into a fit of giggles. "It's not funny!"
"Y-yes it is." Lily managed to get out. Lily slipped and James tripped over her.
~*~*~
"You know right about now they are probably snogging." Sirius said out of the blue.
"Or confessing he is to afraid to go into the fairy room." Remus said and tried to stifle his laughter.
"You said you wouldn't repeat that!"
"Sorry it's, just too funny!"
"Grrr!"
"James, afraid of fairies?" Kellie said, looking at Remus.
"Very."
"They are so snogging right now."
"Shut up!" Kellie yelled at him "They are not snogging."
"Do you know where the passageway that Lily was talking about is?"
"Yes, I'm the one who found it."
"Lets go then!" Kellie, Remus, Sirius, and Bella went to the passageway and saw James on top of Lily.
"Told you so!" Sirius said James quickly got up and helped Lily up.
"Um hi guys, what're you doing here?" James asked.
"What are you *doing* to our dear friend Lily, Jamsie boy?"
"1) Don't call me Jamsie *ever*! 2) I wasn't doing anything to Lily. 3) What are you guys doing here?"
"1) Jamsie, Jamsie, Jamsie. 2) You were doing something to our little Lily. 3) I thought you were snogging and I was right!"
"Actually you weren?t" Lily said.
"What!?"
"We didn't kiss, I slipped and James tripped on top of me."
"That's not what it looked like."
"That what it was!" Lily said and smirked. "Come on we all might as well go to Monstrone's then the //Laugh// Fairy //Laugh// Room."
"He told her." Remus said.
"No kidding!" Sirius yelled. They got to the passage way and entered Monstrone's office. Once they saw it appear on the map, they walked to the fairy room.
"Lily, no." James said firmly.
"Oh, come on."
"No."
"Fine then."
"Hello Lily!" The green Fairy on the portrait said again. "Hi Emma. We've got two scaredy cats so I'm going to do code blue."
"Okay, Let me inform Buttercup, and Tabby."
"Okay."
"L-Lily what's code Blue?" Sirius asked
"Oh nothing." Lily said smiling.
"Lily, has anyone told you that you are not very good at lying?" James said.
"Yea, you have like three times before. Sirius, Kellie, and Bella too!"
"True, but not the-Ahh!!!" Buttercup and Tabby had come out of the room and Buttercup sat down on Lily's right shoulder. (Ivy Green fairy) Tabby sat on Lily's left shoulder (Orange fairy). Lily rolled her eyes.
"Utterup os ver o ames an igggle is ar. Abby sam os or ou nly it earius." Lily said in fairy-ish. Both the fairies raised their eyebrows as they weren?t used to Lily using fairy-ish talk to them. [Buttercup go over to and James and wiggle his ear. Tabby same goes for you only with Sirius.] Buttercup and Tabby did as they were told.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" was all you heard until Lily could get her voice back from the laughter.
"Okay, Tabby, Buttercup stop."
"Okay!" Buttercup said. "So Lils, how's that bastard that kissed slutty Mia?"
"Excuse me!" James yelled.
"Some asshole kissed Princess Mia, and Lily got upset because she-" Tabby covered Buttercup's mouth.
"What she means to say is that Lily was upset, but she obviously isn't anymore so we will just be going I see our room has been added to the map. Bye Byes Lils!" Tabby said. The portrait closed and Sirius and Bella were already snogging in the corner.
"Sirius has the map, lets go he can find his way back." Remus said.
~*~*~
Most of the day Remus and Kellie played wizards chess, and talked and of course- the kissing. While James and Lily sat next to each other, Lily hiding a quidditch magazine behind and extra cover she had of the witch weekly. James chuckled as he saw what she was reading.
"Shut up." Lily whispered.
"It's just too funny."
"No, it's not."
"Yes it is. You're secretly reading about quidditch- it's funny."
"Whatever." Lily rolled her eyes and started reading with smile on her face.
'God, she looks beautiful.'
'Admit it! You like her!' Came a voice in his head which was becoming very annoying.
'Okay, I kinda like her more then a friend.'
'You're so stubborn, ya know that?'
'Yea, I've been told that.'
~*~*~
(Later that night) Kellie and Remus were in his room on his bed. Remus closed his curtains and got under the covers with Kellie.
"So Kellie why did you want to come up here?" Remus said after putting up a silencing charm around his bed.
"Wanted to talk about Lily and James."
"What about them?"
"We should get them together."
"Really?"
"Yes, they both like each other-that much is obvious."
"How is that obvious?"
"The ball, the apology, him tripping over her, the way he was staring at her today."
"You pay way to much attention to him."
"Reemy. This will be so much fun."
"I think your crazy and since when do you call me Reemy?"
"Since now." Kellie kissed him on his forehead, "I know I'm crazy but you still love me, now, don't you?" Kellie kissed his nose.
"Of course."
"So you'll do this with me?" She put on a pout and kissed him.
"Sure."
"Good." Kellie and Remus started kissing (a/n: NOTHING HAPPENED besides the kissing and lots of it!)
~*~*~
Meanwhile, in the Common room. James and Lily sat on the couch. Lily had fallen asleep on James lap. James put a loose hair behind her ear. 'She looks so peaceful when she sleeps.' James just stared at her until he fell asleep.
Lily woke up the next morning next to James. James had his hand around her waist. She saw that some people were gathered around them, first years giggling, Mia scowling at Lily. Remus, Sirius, Bella and Kellie with amused faces.
"James." She whispered into his ear.
"Let me sleep."
"Can't do that- we have classes and a audience."
"What do you mean audience?"
"Open your eyes and see." James opened one eye and saw everyone. 'Well I'm gonna have a fun time trying to convince Remus and Sirius I didn't do anything' He thought sarcastically.
"Nothing to see here, move along now!" James said. The giggling first years left.
"Why are you sleeping with a filthy little mudblood?" Sirius, Remus, Kellie and Bella?s amused faces turned into scowls. And James jumped up looking like he was ready to fight Mia.
"Don?t ever call her a mudblood!" James growled. "Why not? It's the truth, and everyone knows it except you five who try to ignore it! Lily Evans is a Mudblood!" James muttered something and Mia flew back about ten feet, at the same time it seemed that Sirius, Remus, Kellie and Bella had shot curses at her. Her hair turned green. She had pimples all over her face, she was throwing up slugs and her face was upside down.
"Ummm. good job guys! Which of you did each thing?"
"Made her fly back." James said.
"Turned her hair green." Sirius said triumphantly.
"Pimples, not that original." Bella sighed.
"Slugs." Remus said glaring at Mia.
"Upside down face. Didn't have enough time to think up some thing gruesome." Kellie said.
"Cheer up Kellie, it's really all pretty impressive." Lily said. "Plus I have the best friends in the world." They all smiled.
"Okay, so I have to go get dressed see ya guys later!" James said and ran up into the boys dormitory.
"Me too!" Lily said and ran up to the girls dormitory.
~*~*~
Later in astronomy, James, Sirius and Remus were passing notes. They knew they could count on Kellie to help them with there homework seeing as her mother was a muggle and an astronomer. And Kellie had this obsession with stars.
So sleeping with Lily-flower already?-Sirius
What! NO!- James
That's not what it looked like!-Remus
We did NOT sleep together-James
Don't worry James, your not the only one who slept with someone wolf boy over there did too.-Sirius
We just slept. We didn?t have sex! And don?t *ever* call me wolf boy!- Remus
Aww, why not? ::Pouts:: How bout Reemy! I think I recall someone calling you that last night.-Sirius
Shut up!-Remus
Reemy, Reemy, Reemy, what to do with you?-Sirius
You guys, I think you should listen to the lesson, especially since it's about the constellation Canis Majoris, now aren't I write ,Alpha Sirius?- Kellie
Kellie who said you could write on this note, and what! NOOOO!-Sirius
Huh?- Remus/James
Grrr.boys, Canis Majoris is the constellation in which Sirius, the star is in. Sirius is the Alpha star, hence why I called Sirius, Alpha Sirius.- Kellie
Kellie's got brains! I would have never known a half-blood could have so much intelligence- Lucius
Shut it Malfoy, and stay out of our note!-James
James, Kellie I think for now on we should call Sirius; Alpha Sirius!-Remus
Shut it wolf boy!-Sirius
Sirius!!!!!-James
Calm down boys! Remus told me bout him.-Kellie
Oh.-Sirius/James
"Mr. Black, could you please tell me a fact about the star Sirius?" Professor Goldheart asked. Professor Goldheart had only graduated last year, and got the job from Dumbledore. Goldheart was very kind, friendly and had a sense of humor. When she was a student she was in Gryffindor, Goldheart was one of the most liked students because she was so young and energetic. She also had many student still calling her Kristen, which she didnt mind at all she actually felt being called Professor made her feel old.
"Ha, Ha Kristen. Sirius, is the star I am named after." He smirked. Sirius quickly wrote a note to Kellie.
HELP ME!!!!! Pleaseeeeeee!!!- Sirius
I guess I should but you owe me. Sirius is the second brightest star, highest point of view in February, Alpha CMa. - Kellie.
"Very funny, and Kellie I know you helped him." Kristen smiled.
"She did not, I am the brightest star here."
"Well seeing as there is no sun in here, I will except that Mr. Black. Oh and Mr. Black, next time be a little more sirius." Kristen smirked. While the Marauders, Kellie and some other people snickered.
"Hardy Har Har."
"Glad you see things my way, getting back to Canis Majoris. Your homework will me to research its position in the night sky which should include its Right Acension, Declination and when it is best seen." Another reason for the student to like her- she told you exactly what she wanted in the homework, and gave you hardly any.
"I would like on my desk by Friday, which gives you week to do it. If you have any questions, ask me or the star himself. See you Wednesday, class." Kellie, Remus and James walked out of class while Sirius walked up to Kristen.
"Professor?"
"I have told you people time after time to call me Kristen."
"Sorry, Kristen."
"Much better."
"I was just wondering if this was your subtle way of flirting with me."
"Oh, Sirius, how did you figure it out? I must confess my undying love for you now!" Kristen said in a mock tone with her hand on her forehead.
~*~*~
Bella was walking to her next class. When Jason Greenwalk walked up to her and pulled her into a closet.
"Been a while, love." He said cupping her face with his hand. Jason was tall, with dark brown short hair, and dull green eyes. He was also the seeker on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
"I know, I haven't been able to leave Sirius." They kissed.
"When are you going to dump that guy?" They kissed again.
"I don't know, I think I will today." They kissed and they didn't realize the door opened. Bella was the one to notice first, and she saw Sirius. He was clenching and unclenching his fists.
"Slut." Was his only words, and he ran from her. He ran to the lake and sat there, thinking about Bella and Jason. 'How could she do that to me?' He sat there thinking the whole day. The sun started to go down, mixing colors of orange, pink and purple into the sky and soon it had become pitch black with only the moon and stars giving him light. Then he saw a figure walking towards him.
"Sirius?" said Lily's voice.
"Yes?" He said.
"Everyone's looking for you. What happened?"
"Bet Bella isn't." Lily took the hint as they broke up or, wait- didn't she see Bella with Jason last week?
"What happened, it wasn't Jason was it?"
"It was, wait- you knew she was doing this!" Sirius yelled suddenly feeling anger toward Lily.
"NO! First of all calm yourself. Second it's her loss, Sirius, you were a great boyfriend to her." Sirius smiled. "Third, I only thought it might be Jason because I had seen them last week together; I had no clue though, sorry." She said.
"It's okay, I'm sorry I yelled at you."
"It's okay. Lets go up to the common room everyone is worried about you."
"Okay, I guess." Lily tried very hard to pull him up but did not succeed.
"Could you try getting up?"
"Why?" Sirius pouted.
"Cause I'm not as strong as James or Remus."
"Okay." Sirius got up and as they walked over to the common room, they passed the quidditch pitch. Sirius saw a twinkle of joy in her eyes.
"So Lily, enjoy quidditch, eh?"
"Er.how did you find out?"
"That twinkle of joy in your eyes. It's there when you look at the quidditch pitch or maybe it because the pitch remind you of a certain chaser we know all to well." Sirius smirked.
"I don't like James."
"Oh, well then it must have been because of a certain beater."
"Fat chance, Sirius."
"Sure!"
"So anyhow."
"Try out."
"What!? Are you crazy?"
"No, well, actually I am; but that isn't the point!"
"Then what is?"
"I am signing you up for tryouts whether you like it or not."
"Your are most definitely crazy."
"That we all knew. Now what position do you play?"
"Sirius, I've erm. never played." All the color drained from his face and he looked like a muggle who had just seen a ghost.
"You've never played?"
"No, not really."
"Well, we are just going to have to change that."
"How exactly are you going to do that?"
"Training starts tomorrow."
"Don't have a broom."
"No worries."
"Only flown once."
"No worries."
"You are crazy."
"Of course. Meet me here at eight tomorrow."
"Whatever." Sirius put his arm around Lily.
"Lily, Lily, Lily you know that you want to impress a certain stag."
"Sirius, do me a favor and shut up!"
"No can do, and look here he comes now." James walked up to Sirius and Lily with a smile but it faded when he saw Sirius had one of his arms on Lily;s shoulder. Lily saw this and didn't understand why.
"James, you okay?" Lily asked with deep concern in her voice.
"Um, oh yes. So you found Sirius I see."
"Yep, we were just heading back to the common room."
"Oh okay." The three walked back Lily and Sirius leading, James in the back watching Sirius' hand with his arms crossed. Sirius was smirking, Sirius, Kellie and Remus' plan was working. They wanted James to become jealous, and oh was he jealous alright. Sirius was actually enjoying himself, I mean he loved Lily, but in a brotherly way, as did Remus. Sirius slid his arm down Lily arm and on her waist. James was clenching and un-clenching his fists. Then Sirius suddenly took his arm off Lily and started talking to James.
"Hello, James. How are you today?"
"Fine, what are you up to?"
"Nothing, nothing at all."
"Right." Lily wasn't conscious of their talk at all. She was thinking about things. 'I wonder if Sirius can really make me become a good quidditch player? I wonder if I could make the team next year. There are two other girls on the team, so the captain must not be sexist. What are they talking about?' They were finally at the common room, Lily muttered the password and walked in, where Remus, Kellie, and Peter were waiting.
"Sirius!" Kellie and Remus yelled at the same time.
"That's my name, don't wear it out."
~*~*~
The next day Lily woke up at the ungodly hour of 5:00. Lily was known for when she gets up she stays up. Lily took a shower, and got dressed in her school robes, she walked down to the common room and saw James was asleep. There was a book on his chest. Lily picked up the book and closed it. It read in the bottom right corner JAMES HAROLD POTTER in gold writing the books leather covering was a dark red. 'He looks so cute when he sleeps.' Lily thought. James started to stir in his sleep.
"Lily." James said in his sleep. Lily smiled, he was dreaming of her. Lily summoned a blanket from her dorm and placed it over him. Lily walked to the window. She watched as the sun rose. There was breeze and Lily shivered for it was January and they still had the weather of winter. Suddenly she felt warm she looked and the blanket she had just placed on James was on her, she turned around and saw James.
"Thanks for the blanket." He whispered into her ear.
"No problem." She whispered back.
"You um.didn't er.read my er. journal, did you??
"Actually, I didn't." James let out a sigh of relief. Lily raised her eyebrows.
"Just some er. personal stuff in it."
"Oh."
"Yea, so what are you doing up so early?"
"Nothing just pondering."
"Over what?"
"Things. Personal stuff."
"Oh."
"Yep." Lily turned around. James and Lily could feel each other's breath. James put his hand behind Lily's neck and slowly brought his head towards hers.
"I" Lily jumped away from James, Sirius had come down to the common room, she didn't want to jump away, but Sirius had taken ten years off her life with the word 'I'. "leave you alone and what happens? You two snog each other!" Sirius said scowlingly. (a/n is that even a word?) Lily and James were blushing. Sirius smirked the plan was working- yippee!
A/n: Loads of thanx to IluvMoony, my beta reader, read her stories they are awesome! Okay so did you love it or did you hate it? I think I am going to rename it but I need some ideas, I'm thinking of bring it thru the summer maybe to their marriage, all these ideas in my head what should I do!? Help me, voice your opinion!

"James?" Remus said.
"What, oh. How is she, I was so stupid this morning, she's pissed isn't she." James said and Sirius smirked. James and Sirius were best friends. If saw one you, the other was not far behind. So, when they got into fights it really didn't last more then 24 hours.
"Buddy old pal, haven?t you figured it out? Your in LLLLOOOOVVVVEEEE with her."
"No I'm not!"
"Right, anyhow she's fine, yes, you were extremely stupid this morning but she's not pissed at you or Sirius for any reason." Remus supplied.
"Really?!" James asked.
"Yes." Remus said. "Now I have to go to bed I am tired. We looked for Lily all over the castle before we found her. Good night!"
"WE have to prank someone." Sirius said out of the blue.
"Who exactly is *someone*?"
"Mia? Snape? Malfoy? Slytherins? Your Choice."
"Well I am going to have problems with Mia tomorrow so sure! Mia it is!"
"We first have to sneak into the girls dorm."
"Easier, said then done. If we try the steps, they become a slippery thingy and we fall back down."
"JUMP!"
"Why, not? Lets do it. Here's an idea??

"You guys bet on your best friend?" Bella said.

"Kiss, Kiss, Kiss." Sirius was chanting only loud enough for Remus, Kellie and Bella to hear. Kellie smacked him upside the head.
"OW!!!"
"Shut up, will you?"
"Kiss, Kiss, Kiss."
~*~*~
James and Lily were absentmindedly moving closer.
"J-James."
"Lily?"
"We shouldn't do this."
"Do what?"
"Kiss."
"We aren't."
"What?"
"My guess- Sirius bet Remus we were going to kiss so I'm going to make it look like we almost kiss then you walk back a step, okay?"
"Okay." James bent down just far enough so that they would look like they hadn't kissed yet and like James told Lily to do, she backed away. James and Lily walked back and saw Sirius' face. They both started cracking up.

"Let me see the map." Lily said.

"Everyone does. Just let me see it." James went up to the dormitory and gave Lily the parchment. Lily took out her wand and said.
"I solemnly swear I am up to no good. Just what I thought."

"You don't have the fairy room or the passageway to Monstrone's personal ingredients."
"Monstrone's p-personal ingredients?" James said, eyes widening.
"Yep. You have a memory charm on this, right?"
"Yeah." James said.
"Okay, then I shall show you the way." Lily said. James and Lily left.
"So, you picked me to take." James said.

"If you must know, yes, and I'm not the only one- Sirius and Peter are to!" Lily burst into a fit of giggles. "It's not funny!"
"Y-yes it is." Lily managed to get out. Lily slipped and James tripped over her.
~*~*~
"You know right about now they are probably snogging." Sirius said out of the blue.
"Or confessing he is to afraid to go into the fairy room." Remus said and tried to stifle his laughter.
"You said you wouldn't repeat that!"
"Sorry it's, just too funny!"
"Grrr!"
"James, afraid of fairies?" Kellie said, looking at Remus.
"Very."
"They are so snogging right now."
"Shut up!" Kellie yelled at him "They are not snogging."
"Do you know where the passageway that Lily was talking about is?"
"Yes, I'm the one who found it."
"Lets go then!" Kellie, Remus, Sirius, and Bella went to the passageway and saw James on top of Lily.
"Told you so!" Sirius said James quickly got up and helped Lily up.
"Um hi guys, what're you doing here?" James asked.
"What are you *doing* to our dear friend Lily, Jamsie boy?"
"1) Don't call me Jamsie *ever*! 2) I wasn't doing anything to Lily. 3) What are you guys doing here?"
"1) Jamsie, Jamsie, Jamsie. 2) You were doing something to our little Lily. 3) I thought you were snogging and I was right!"
"Actually you weren?t" Lily said.
"What!?"
"We didn't kiss, I slipped and James tripped on top of me."
"That's not what it looked like."
"That what it was!" Lily said and smirked. "Come on we all might as well go to Monstrone's then the //Laugh// Fairy //Laugh// Room."
"He told her." Remus said.
"No kidding!" Sirius yelled. They got to the passage way and entered Monstrone's office. Once they saw it appear on the map, they walked to the fairy room.
"Lily, no." James said firmly.
"Oh, come on."
"No."
"Fine then."
"Hello Lily!" The green Fairy on the portrait said again. "Hi Emma. We've got two scaredy cats so I'm going to do code blue."
"Okay, Let me inform Buttercup, and Tabby."
"Okay."
"L-Lily what's code Blue?" Sirius asked
"Oh nothing." Lily said smiling.
"Lily, has anyone told you that you are not very good at lying?" James said.
"Yea, you have like three times before. Sirius, Kellie, and Bella too!"
"True, but not the-Ahh!!!" Buttercup and Tabby had come out of the room and Buttercup sat down on Lily's right shoulder. (Ivy Green fairy) Tabby sat on Lily's left shoulder (Orange fairy). Lily rolled her eyes.
"Utterup os ver o ames an igggle is ar. Abby sam os or ou nly it earius." Lily said in fairy-ish. Both the fairies raised their eyebrows as they weren?t used to Lily using fairy-ish talk to them. [Buttercup go over to and James and wiggle his ear. Tabby same goes for you only with Sirius.] Buttercup and Tabby did as they were told.
"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" was all you heard until Lily could get her voice back from the laughter.
"Okay, Tabby, Buttercup stop."
"Okay!" Buttercup said. "So Lils, how's that bastard that kissed slutty Mia?"
"Excuse me!" James yelled.
"Some asshole kissed Princess Mia, and Lily got upset because she-" Tabby covered Buttercup's mouth.
"What she means to say is that Lily was upset, but she obviously isn't anymore so we will just be going I see our room has been added to the map. Bye Byes Lils!" Tabby said. The portrait closed and Sirius and Bella were already snogging in the corner.
"Sirius has the map, lets go he can find his way back." Remus said.
~*~*~
Most of the day Remus and Kellie played wizards chess, and talked and of course- the kissing. While James and Lily sat next to each other, Lily hiding a quidditch magazine behind and extra cover she had of the witch weekly. James chuckled as he saw what she was reading.
"Shut up." Lily whispered.
"It's just too funny."
"No, it's not."
"Yes it is. You're secretly reading about quidditch- it's funny."
"Whatever." Lily rolled her eyes and started reading with smile on her face.
'God, she looks beautiful.'
'Admit it! You like her!' Came a voice in his head which was becoming very annoying.
'Okay, I kinda like her more then a friend.'
'You're so stubborn, ya know that?'
'Yea, I've been told that.'
~*~*~
(Later that night) Kellie and Remus were in his room on his bed. Remus closed his curtains and got under the covers with Kellie.
"So Kellie why did you want to come up here?" Remus said after putting up a silencing charm around his bed.
"Wanted to talk about Lily and James."
"What about them?"
"We should get them together."
"Really?"
"Yes, they both like each other-that much is obvious."
"How is that obvious?"
"The ball, the apology, him tripping over her, the way he was staring at her today."
"You pay way to much attention to him."
"Reemy. This will be so much fun."
"I think your crazy and since when do you call me Reemy?"
"Since now." Kellie kissed him on his forehead, "I know I'm crazy but you still love me, now, don't you?" Kellie kissed his nose.
"Of course."
"So you'll do this with me?" She put on a pout and kissed him.
"Sure."
"Good." Kellie and Remus started kissing (a/n: NOTHING HAPPENED besides the kissing and lots of it!)
~*~*~
Meanwhile, in the Common room. James and Lily sat on the couch. Lily had fallen asleep on James lap. James put a loose hair behind her ear. 'She looks so peaceful when she sleeps.' James just stared at her until he fell asleep.
Lily woke up the next morning next to James. James had his hand around her waist. She saw that some people were gathered around them, first years giggling, Mia scowling at Lily. Remus, Sirius, Bella and Kellie with amused faces.
"James." She whispered into his ear.
"Let me sleep."
"Can't do that- we have classes and a audience."
"What do you mean audience?"
"Open your eyes and see." James opened one eye and saw everyone. 'Well I'm gonna have a fun time trying to convince Remus and Sirius I didn't do anything' He thought sarcastically.
"Nothing to see here, move along now!" James said. The giggling first years left.
"Why are you sleeping with a filthy little mudblood?" Sirius, Remus, Kellie and Bella?s amused faces turned into scowls. And James jumped up looking like he was ready to fight Mia.
"Don?t ever call her a mudblood!" James growled. "Why not? It's the truth, and everyone knows it except you five who try to ignore it! Lily Evans is a Mudblood!" James muttered something and Mia flew back about ten feet, at the same time it seemed that Sirius, Remus, Kellie and Bella had shot curses at her. Her hair turned green. She had pimples all over her face, she was throwing up slugs and her face was upside down.
"Ummm. good job guys! Which of you did each thing?"
"Made her fly back." James said.
"Turned her hair green." Sirius said triumphantly.
"Pimples, not that original." Bella sighed.
"Slugs." Remus said glaring at Mia.
"Upside down face. Didn't have enough time to think up some thing gruesome." Kellie said.
"Cheer up Kellie, it's really all pretty impressive." Lily said. "Plus I have the best friends in the world." They all smiled.
"Okay, so I have to go get dressed see ya guys later!" James said and ran up into the boys dormitory.
"Me too!" Lily said and ran up to the girls dormitory.
~*~*~
Later in astronomy, James, Sirius and Remus were passing notes. They knew they could count on Kellie to help them with there homework seeing as her mother was a muggle and an astronomer. And Kellie had this obsession with stars.
So sleeping with Lily-flower already?-Sirius
What! NO!- James
That's not what it looked like!-Remus
We did NOT sleep together-James
Don't worry James, your not the only one who slept with someone wolf boy over there did too.-Sirius
We just slept. We didn?t have sex! And don?t *ever* call me wolf boy!- Remus
Aww, why not? ::Pouts:: How bout Reemy! I think I recall someone calling you that last night.-Sirius
Shut up!-Remus
Reemy, Reemy, Reemy, what to do with you?-Sirius
You guys, I think you should listen to the lesson, especially since it's about the constellation Canis Majoris, now aren't I write ,Alpha Sirius?- Kellie
Kellie who said you could write on this note, and what! NOOOO!-Sirius
Huh?- Remus/James
Grrr.boys, Canis Majoris is the constellation in which Sirius, the star is in. Sirius is the Alpha star, hence why I called Sirius, Alpha Sirius.- Kellie
Kellie's got brains! I would have never known a half-blood could have so much intelligence- Lucius
Shut it Malfoy, and stay out of our note!-James
James, Kellie I think for now on we should call Sirius; Alpha Sirius!-Remus
Shut it wolf boy!-Sirius
Sirius!!!!!-James
Calm down boys! Remus told me bout him.-Kellie
Oh.-Sirius/James
"Mr. Black, could you please tell me a fact about the star Sirius?" Professor Goldheart asked. Professor Goldheart had only graduated last year, and got the job from Dumbledore. Goldheart was very kind, friendly and had a sense of humor. When she was a student she was in Gryffindor, Goldheart was one of the most liked students because she was so young and energetic. She also had many student still calling her Kristen, which she didnt mind at all she actually felt being called Professor made her feel old.
"Ha, Ha Kristen. Sirius, is the star I am named after." He smirked. Sirius quickly wrote a note to Kellie.
HELP ME!!!!! Pleaseeeeeee!!!- Sirius
I guess I should but you owe me. Sirius is the second brightest star, highest point of view in February, Alpha CMa. - Kellie.
"Very funny, and Kellie I know you helped him." Kristen smiled.
"She did not, I am the brightest star here."
"Well seeing as there is no sun in here, I will except that Mr. Black. Oh and Mr. Black, next time be a little more sirius." Kristen smirked. While the Marauders, Kellie and some other people snickered.
"Hardy Har Har."
"Glad you see things my way, getting back to Canis Majoris. Your homework will me to research its position in the night sky which should include its Right Acension, Declination and when it is best seen." Another reason for the student to like her- she told you exactly what she wanted in the homework, and gave you hardly any.
"I would like on my desk by Friday, which gives you week to do it. If you have any questions, ask me or the star himself. See you Wednesday, class." Kellie, Remus and James walked out of class while Sirius walked up to Kristen.
"Professor?"
"I have told you people time after time to call me Kristen."
"Sorry, Kristen."
"Much better."
"I was just wondering if this was your subtle way of flirting with me."
"Oh, Sirius, how did you figure it out? I must confess my undying love for you now!" Kristen said in a mock tone with her hand on her forehead.
~*~*~
Bella was walking to her next class. When Jason Greenwalk walked up to her and pulled her into a closet.
"Been a while, love." He said cupping her face with his hand. Jason was tall, with dark brown short hair, and dull green eyes. He was also the seeker on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team.
"I know, I haven't been able to leave Sirius." They kissed.
"When are you going to dump that guy?" They kissed again.
"I don't know, I think I will today." They kissed and they didn't realize the door opened. Bella was the one to notice first, and she saw Sirius. He was clenching and unclenching his fists.
"Slut." Was his only words, and he ran from her. He ran to the lake and sat there, thinking about Bella and Jason. 'How could she do that to me?' He sat there thinking the whole day. The sun started to go down, mixing colors of orange, pink and purple into the sky and soon it had become pitch black with only the moon and stars giving him light. Then he saw a figure walking towards him.
"Sirius?" said Lily's voice.
"Yes?" He said.
"Everyone's looking for you. What happened?"
"Bet Bella isn't." Lily took the hint as they broke up or, wait- didn't she see Bella with Jason last week?
"What happened, it wasn't Jason was it?"
"It was, wait- you knew she was doing this!" Sirius yelled suddenly feeling anger toward Lily.
"NO! First of all calm yourself. Second it's her loss, Sirius, you were a great boyfriend to her." Sirius smiled. "Third, I only thought it might be Jason because I had seen them last week together; I had no clue though, sorry." She said.
"It's okay, I'm sorry I yelled at you."
"It's okay. Lets go up to the common room everyone is worried about you."
"Okay, I guess." Lily tried very hard to pull him up but did not succeed.
"Could you try getting up?"
"Why?" Sirius pouted.
"Cause I'm not as strong as James or Remus."
"Okay." Sirius got up and as they walked over to the common room, they passed the quidditch pitch. Sirius saw a twinkle of joy in her eyes.
"So Lily, enjoy quidditch, eh?"
"Er.how did you find out?"
"That twinkle of joy in your eyes. It's there when you look at the quidditch pitch or maybe it because the pitch remind you of a certain chaser we know all to well." Sirius smirked.
"I don't like James."
"Oh, well then it must have been because of a certain beater."
"Fat chance, Sirius."
"Sure!"
"So anyhow."
"Try out."
"What!? Are you crazy?"
"No, well, actually I am; but that isn't the point!"
"Then what is?"
"I am signing you up for tryouts whether you like it or not."
"Your are most definitely crazy."
"That we all knew. Now what position do you play?"
"Sirius, I've erm. never played." All the color drained from his face and he looked like a muggle who had just seen a ghost.
"You've never played?"
"No, not really."
"Well, we are just going to have to change that."
"How exactly are you going to do that?"
"Training starts tomorrow."
"Don't have a broom."
"No worries."
"Only flown once."
"No worries."
"You are crazy."
"Of course. Meet me here at eight tomorrow."
"Whatever." Sirius put his arm around Lily.
"Lily, Lily, Lily you know that you want to impress a certain stag."
"Sirius, do me a favor and shut up!"
"No can do, and look here he comes now." James walked up to Sirius and Lily with a smile but it faded when he saw Sirius had one of his arms on Lily;s shoulder. Lily saw this and didn't understand why.
"James, you okay?" Lily asked with deep concern in her voice.
"Um, oh yes. So you found Sirius I see."
"Yep, we were just heading back to the common room."
"Oh okay." The three walked back Lily and Sirius leading, James in the back watching Sirius' hand with his arms crossed. Sirius was smirking, Sirius, Kellie and Remus' plan was working. They wanted James to become jealous, and oh was he jealous alright. Sirius was actually enjoying himself, I mean he loved Lily, but in a brotherly way, as did Remus. Sirius slid his arm down Lily arm and on her waist. James was clenching and un-clenching his fists. Then Sirius suddenly took his arm off Lily and started talking to James.
"Hello, James. How are you today?"
"Fine, what are you up to?"
"Nothing, nothing at all."
"Right." Lily wasn't conscious of their talk at all. She was thinking about things. 'I wonder if Sirius can really make me become a good quidditch player? I wonder if I could make the team next year. There are two other girls on the team, so the captain must not be sexist. What are they talking about?' They were finally at the common room, Lily muttered the password and walked in, where Remus, Kellie, and Peter were waiting.
"Sirius!" Kellie and Remus yelled at the same time.
"That's my name, don't wear it out."
~*~*~
The next day Lily woke up at the ungodly hour of 5:00. Lily was known for when she gets up she stays up. Lily took a shower, and got dressed in her school robes, she walked down to the common room and saw James was asleep. There was a book on his chest. Lily picked up the book and closed it. It read in the bottom right corner JAMES HAROLD POTTER in gold writing the books leather covering was a dark red. 'He looks so cute when he sleeps.' Lily thought. James started to stir in his sleep.
"Lily." James said in his sleep. Lily smiled, he was dreaming of her. Lily summoned a blanket from her dorm and placed it over him. Lily walked to the window. She watched as the sun rose. There was breeze and Lily shivered for it was January and they still had the weather of winter. Suddenly she felt warm she looked and the blanket she had just placed on James was on her, she turned around and saw James.
"Thanks for the blanket." He whispered into her ear.
"No problem." She whispered back.
"You um.didn't er.read my er. journal, did you??
"Actually, I didn't." James let out a sigh of relief. Lily raised her eyebrows.
"Just some er. personal stuff in it."
"Oh."
"Yea, so what are you doing up so early?"
"Nothing just pondering."
"Over what?"
"Things. Personal stuff."
"Oh."
"Yep." Lily turned around. James and Lily could feel each other's breath. James put his hand behind Lily's neck and slowly brought his head towards hers.
"I" Lily jumped away from James, Sirius had come down to the common room, she didn't want to jump away, but Sirius had taken ten years off her life with the word 'I'. "leave you alone and what happens? You two snog each other!" Sirius said scowlingly. (a/n is that even a word?) Lily and James were blushing. Sirius smirked the plan was working- yippee!
