After class Melanie and Lila hurried out of class. They reached their dorm and bust out laughing. They exchanged high-fives and went into another fit of giggles.
"Did you SEE her face????" Lila cracked up.
"Oh my gosh, it was PRICELESS!" Melanie giggled.
"We are sooo mean." Lila coughed trying to stop laughing.
"WHO cares???? This is awesome!" Melanie said then suddenly stopped. She put on a serious face and turned to Lila who immediately stopped laughing.
"What?? What's wrong?" Lila asked confused.
"Umm, nothing. Never mind. I just...never mind." Melanie said.
"Mel, you're freaking me out! I don't care what it is, but WHAT is wrong?" Lila asked nervously.
"Lila, umm what if.what if, when you ask James out, he says yes, because he really does like you?? Then what will you do? You can't just go and break his heart. The entire female population would kill you!" Melanie said uncomfortably.
"Oh Mel," Lila said soothingly. "Don't worry. Everything will go fine. And if he DOES like me like that.I'll break his heart very politely ok?"
Melanie started to laugh but blurted aloud, "I hope all goes good, I'd hate for this to cause an even bigger rift between Lily and James."
Lila laughed, "Once you told me the story, I knew we had to do SOMETHING. Now come on we have a free period and Lily doesn't so we better get started on our plan."

James and Remus were walking up the stairs without Sirius who had gone to meet his girlfriend.
"Remus, my friend, you ARE a genius!" James said to him laughing.
"Well it runs in the family. We Lupins just have NO competition." Remus said jokingly.
"I hope she says yes, otherwise our entire plan will sink faster than the Titanic." James said.
"The WHAT?!?!?!" Remus said, coming from a full-fledged wizarding family, Remus had no idea what the heck James was talking about.
"Never mind. Come on! We have Ancient Ruins in ten minutes, and it's on the other side of the school. Lets GO!" James called running, already halfway down the hall.
"Sh**!" (a/n: yes I realize what it says.should I move the rating up?? And Yes the words will always have the little stars.I don't swear.)
"REMUS! Watch the language!" James called back over his shoulder.
Remus laughed, "For a guy like you, you most certainly DO care about the 'language' too much."
James stopped, "What was that supposed to mean?"
Remus laughed again, "Never mind. I take it back."
James smiled, "Good. Now get your butt moving!!!!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Ancient Ruins was one of the classes that Lily and James shared (in 6th year they get to choose their schedules any way they like to..hence the free periods and few classes shared.).
Lily and the rest of the class looked up to see what was the disturbance at the door. The boys were late even though they ran the whole way.
"Settle down class." The young Professor Adams said. She had long blonde hair and hazel eyes. She was an extremely fair teacher and a really good one too. Also the fact that she was stunningly beautiful made part of the class..consisting of boys.enjoy the class even more. She turned to the boys and asked them to take a seat and start the assignment. Lily smiled to herself when she saw the two turning a brilliant shade of red for being embarrassed in front of everyone. Prof. Adams went on to give them a lecture of loitering in the halls.
"And just because you see some pretty girl out in the halls, DOES NOT give you the right to skip the beginning of part of class. ANY class for that matter, whether it be this one or another. Do you understand????"
The two boys meekly nodded and sat down in the back.
Adams gave them a glare and spoke sharply, "No I simply won't have you two sitting together at the BACK. Lupin move here." She said pointing to the desk next to a ravenclaw girl who started smiling like the Cheshire cat. "And you Mr. Potter will take Mr. White's place in the front next to Miss Evans." She continued. Lily looked horrified. How could Prof. Adams do this to her??? James? Of all the people in the school it had to be JAMES?????
James grumbled an answer and gathered his stuff. HE went up slowly and took the seat. The whole class neither of them would even look at the other. Even when they had to pair up for the class assignment they wouldn't say a word to each other unless it was absolutely necessary.
When the class was finally over Lily practically jumped out of her seat. She ran out the door and went straight to her next class Arithmancy. Yet James had off the period and Remus had Arithmancy also. James made his way to the common room slowly. He had an hour and a half before his next class, transfiguration. "Oh god Potter! How could you not even say 'Hey' to her? She used to be your best friend! You never had problems talking to her then. Why now?" James mentally kicked himself. He reached the common room and went straight to his dorm. He walked into the room and lay down on his bed. He fell asleep the instant his head hit the pillow.
~*~*~~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The next day when everyone was in the common room a huge event took place. One that changed the lives of six people.
Melanie, Lila, Remus, and Sirius were sitting in the common room waiting for their friends to come up from dinner. The common room was crowded but not as much as usual. Most people were either still at dinner or had this or that to do.
Suddenly the common room door banged open. Lily came in screaming at James and had a letter in her hands. Lily was half crying half in rage and James was extremely angry. "It's all your fault!" Lily screamed.
"MY fault??" James yelled back.
"YES! OTHERWISE NOTHING WOULD'VE HAPPENED!" Lily hollered.
"WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?" James roared.
"IF I HADN'T MET YOU OR YOU STUPID FAMILY MY PARENTS WOULDN'T BE DEAD RIGHT NOW!!!" Lily shrieked.
James yelled. "LILY! NEVER EVER INSULT MY FAMILY!" He raised his arm as if to slap her but suddenly two strong pairs of arms held him back. Lila and Melanie ran over to Lily who had just collapsed into a heap onto the floor.
"James! WHAT THE HE** IS THE MATTER WITH YOU??" Sirius yelled.
"Calm down!" Remus bellowed.
They grabbed a hold of James and dragged him up the stairs to the dorms.
Lila and Melanie gently picked Lily up and took her upstairs to her bed.
Then the foursome returned to the common room to meet a totally frozen and horrified room.
"Well, get on with your business then! GO ON!" Sirius said. The chatter slowly resumed and the four took a seat on the couch.
"Oh my god. What in the world was THAT all about?" Melanie said.
"And how are we going to solve it??" Remus said, hugging Melanie.
"OH my lord." Lila kept repeating.
"WHAT can we do?? Should we tell someone?" Sirius asked.
"I think that's a good idea, Padfoot. Let's go." Remus said quietly and they all made their way out of the common room.
