"Rach! Rach, wake up! Rachel!"

"What?" she asked grumpily at being woken.

"You'll never guess what I just found out!"

"Can't it wait."

"NO!"

"Fine, well make it fast."

"Sirius loves you!" I sat back grinning waiting for her to wake up and become as excited as I was.

It never happened though. She just sat there staring at me. Then she rolled her eyes, and flopped back down into bed.

Defiantly not the reaction I was hoping for.

"Rach! Don't you even care? Isn't this what you wanted? Now the two of you can get together and you'll leave happily ever after!"

"Lily, you don't get it at all. That's why I didn't tell you in the first place." Rachel sat up. "I don't want my happily ever after with Sirius Black. I hate him and him loving me just makes it worse!"

"But Rachel, if you love him-"

"Lily, it's not like the way you love James. You love James and want to spend the rest of your life with him. I love Sirius and wish he would drop dead so I wouldn't have anything to love any more."

"Oh." I still didn't understand but I don't think Rachel understood either. She's just afraid I firmly told myself.

It was then that I made it my personal mission to get Sirius and Rachel together if it was the last thing I did.

"Well, Rach, I let you get back to sleep," I said slipping off her bed.

"Thank you."

~

"James, honey, wake up." I whispered.

He grumbled something incoherently before turning over and continuing to sleep.

"James Potter, you wake up this instant!" I yelled, yet still whispering.

"Ten more minutes..."

"No! No more minutes, you get up right now!"

"Fine, I'm up, I'm up."

He sat up rubbing his eyes.

"Lily?"

"You have to help me."

"What are you doing up here? What time is it?"

"It's only one."

"In the morning?!?"

"Yes-"

"This had better be pretty damn important."

"It is, now shut up and let me talk. I have a plan. Sirius loves Rachel. Rachel loves Sirius. They're soul mates. Rachel can't seem to see that. You and I are going to get them together."

"Correction, YOU are going to get them together. I don't mess with people like that. It's a crazy plan and if they're meant together it'll happen with out our. help."

"Oh, your one to talk. Always pranking messing with people."

"Well, you'll have to do it with out me."

"Merlin, what a great boyfriend you are," I said sarcastically.

"I try."

~

"Harry! Harry get up!"

"What'd ya want?" He mumbled.

"I want you to get up and listen to me."

"Fine. I'm up. Now what do you want?"

Him and his father, both, so not morning people.

"I need you to help me get Sirius and Rachel together."

"I dunno mum... Maybe they should just figure it out for themselves-"

"No! That'll take years. Now Sirius already knows he loves Rach and is willing to get together it's just Rachel we need to work on."

"You know mum it sounds like you've got it pretty much under control so why don't I just let you handle the situation? Goodnight."

You have no idea how loved I feel right now. Well, if they're not going to help me I'll just do it myself.

~

"Come on Rach! I so don't get your thinking! I mean you both love each other so why-"

"No!"

"Come on!"

"I've told you a million times and I'm only gonna tell you one more time I am not gonna go out with Sirius Black."

"Wow, Rach, talk about timing..."

"So nice to know you love me too Bible."

Last name. Not good.

"So nice to know you find it necessary to tell my best friend you love me before me."

Well, at least she still considers me her best friend. I wasn't sure seeing as I've been bugging her to go out with Sirius for the last two days.

"Well I would have told you but seeing as I can't even talk to you with out you blowing up in my face!"

"Ha! The very notion that I'm your soul mate makes you barf!"

"No, the smell of Wormtail farting makes me barf."

"Oh, that's rich. Your little friend has such impeccable timing."

"Wait!!!"

They both turned and looked at me. They had obviously forgotten I was there. Have I mentioned how loved I feel?

"Who's Wormtail?"

"Peter," Rachel said simply.

"Oh.." Wait. How did she know that? "Wait! How did you know that?"

"Oh, um... dunno, just did."

"Oh." I eyed her suspiciously. "Carry on then." and I sat back ready to watch the fight commence.

They looked at me like I was crazy. Now that I think about it though I probably am. Whatever.

~

"So mum, how is the plan going?"

"Okay I suppose."

James gave me a look of disapproval. Well, he can disapprove all he wants. I disapprove of most of the things he does and that does stop him?

Like I said. I don't care.

Okay, so I care a little.

Fine. I care.

"James come on! Lighten up!"

"Lily, your toying with peoples' feeling here!"

"Oh and you've never done that in your life!"

"This is different!"

"How?!?"

"They're our friends!"

"And I'm making them happy!"

"Look at them! They are so not happy! They hate each other!"

Your the one who's not seeing it! They love each other!"

"Yeah, that's why they're always fighting!"

"Look at us! We used to fight all the time!"


"So that's different."

"How?"

His mouth opened and closed like a fish.

"Told ya," I said smiling smugly.

He stuck his tongue out at me.

"It's so nice to know I have such mature parents." Harry said sarcastically.

I looked over at him. He look a lot like Remus at the moment. His nose in a book, a serious look on his face.

I leaned over towards James and whispered, "He got that from me."

"Huh?" they both said together.

"Oh honestly!" I threw my hand up into the air before walking up to my dorm.

I love those two but they drive me crazy sometimes.

"Hey Rach."

"Hum."

"What?"

"Hum."

"Are you mad?"

"Hum."

"I'll take that as a yes." I sighed, "What happened.?"

"Well, I hope your happy."

"What?"

"I said yes."

"I'm still confused."

"Bloody hell Lily! I said yes damn it! Sirius asked me out and I said yes!"

Someone has some major anger issues- Wait, did she just-

"You said yes!"

"Yes."

"Why am I the happier one here?"

"Merlin, I hate him and now I have to go on a bloody date with him!"

"Come on Rach, admit it, your excited."

"Am not." but a slow smile was making it's way onto her face.

"Admit it!"

"Okay! Fine! I've never been more excited about anything in my life!"

So for the rest of the night we giggled and ate junk food and talked of our great guys and agreed we would never go double dating because that would just be way too corny.
