~*GREEN EYES*~

Chapter Four- Midnight Discussions
The next week seemed like forever. All of Lily's classes dragged along slowly, and it felt that every minute was like an hour. Lily really wanted to be at the dance, enclosed in Sirius' arms. Somehow, she managed to keep doing her excellent homework as usual, but she barely even realized that she was doing it. She bumped into Sirius a lot, and there was tons of chemistry between them. All of her friends thought that they should hook up. This was the case when Lily was talking to James during a game of wizard chess.

"Hey Lil, do you think that you will eventually go out with Sirius?" he asked as he moved his pawn forward.

"Yeah, probably. I really like him." she said. "You might want to move your knight out of the way."

"Well, you guys make a cute couple," he said. "And my knight is not in any danger what-so-ever."

"Yeah, well the moment has to be just right. What about you and Nancy? Will that ever work out? Oh, and by the way your knight was in trouble. But he's mine now."

"Nancy and I are just friends. We have no feelings for each other. Check."

"Yeah, well are you going to dance with other girls at the dance then? I wouldn't do that if I were you."

"What, what's wrong with dancing with other people, cuz that's what we decided to do!"

"Oh, no, I meant don't move there. Check mate!" said Lily. "Well, I am pretty tired. I need to go to bed. 'Night"

"Good night Lil," said James. Lily bounded into the girls dorm and flopped down on her bed. She then sat up quickly, because she realized that she had sat on the book that she passed letters to Jamie in. She opened it up and read.

Hey Babes,
What's up Lily my friend? I missed seeing you at the robe shop. My girls and I completly forgot about it, until we saw you coming out of there. I got the coolest. most fashionable robes. They are great. You will see them tomorrow. Anyways I saw you with Sirius at Hogsmede. With your arm wrapped around Sirius at Hogsmede. What's going on with you two? If there is anything going on I am going to hurt you. You told me that I would be the first to know.

Listen, I know that I haven't seen you in awhile. I don't have anything to do on Saturday before the dance. Let's meet then, we can get ready together. I promise not to forget this time. Well, write me back, ok? Bye dear.
Lots of Luv,
Miss Perfect!

Lily laughed out loud. Jamie could be funny sometimes, if not the slightest bit egotistical. She took up her pen and started wrote her back:

Hey Jamie,
Saturday sounds great. And there isn't anything going on between Sirius and I...yet. I promise I will tell you if there is, or else you can take some horrible revenge on me! I can't wait until the dance, so much fun. We have to hang out together, you're the only other one I know that can dance really well, besides me. We'll dance together.

So the weirdest thing happened to me today. Guess who bumped into me?? You'll never guess so I'll just tell you: Jeanine Anderson. You know, Jame's girlfriend since second year? Well, she was talking to me and she's really mad about the break up. Something like, "I can't believe that James would do this to me! And he's going with that tramp Nancy, what is this world coming to?" You know, I never liked her that much. She's always bragging about those photo shoots that she does for Witch Weekly all the time because her mom's the editor. And her "amazing voice" which no one in the school seems to have heard. Well, she doesn't really brag about that. I guess my point is that I pretty much hate her. Oh well.

It's getting late, you're already asleep, and I was tired before I came to the dorms so I am completly beat now. So I'm gonna go to bed. See you in the morning, okay?
Love always,
Lily

Lily closed the book and set it on Jamie's bedside table. Then she dozed off into dreams.

"Lily, wake up," a familiar voice whispered. Lily looked up. Sirius was standing above her bed, looking extremly worried.

"Sirius, what's wrong? It's after midnight!" she said.

"It's James, he's been hurt. You have to help me, there's no time to explain." said Sirius. He took her by the hand and lead her to the common room. James was sitting there, looking bloodly and bruised. He was unconcious, and moaning sofly.

"Oh my God, Sirius what happened to him? Why don't you just take him up to Madame Pomfrey?" asked Lily.

"It's a long story." said Sirius.

"Well, it's going to take a long time if you want me to make him better. Tell me." Lily got out her wand and started try to mend James' wounds.

"Well, I am sure you noticed that Remus leaves once a month. Well, have you figured out why?" said Sirius. Lily shock her head no. "He's a werewolf. He is taken to the Shrieking Shack so that he can transform. Since he is one of our best friends, we quickly worked out why this was. We worked hard and this year we figured out how to change into a different animal..."

"Oh Sirius, that is illegal magic! You can't go around doing that."

"I know Lil, but he is one of my best friends. We visit him each night that he is gone. When we have transformed, he is more human. When we went to visit him tonight, he was angry. It seemed that he was mad at Snape for teasing him about where he goes every month. He was going to go and hurt him, because his mind was not thinking clearly. James tried to stop him, but he was hurt. I pulled him out of the shrieking shack and came here. We can't take him to Madame Pomfrey because he isn't supposed to be out on the grounds with a werewolf and..."

"Sirius, I understand. Hold on a sec...ok, he's as good as new. James, wake up." said Lily. James fluttered his eyes open. "James, you need to go back to your dorm. You're going to be fine, you just need some rest." James got up and stumbled toward his dorm. Sirius colapsed onto the sofa, and Lily plopped down next to him. They started talking, and pretty soon they both fell asleep.
