Chapter Thirteen

Lily went into the Hall again in search for James. She wanted to apologize to him and beg for forgiveness, but she needed to think about being with him. She just needed to sort out her feelings about James. She knew she was attracted to him, but wasn't sure if having him as a boyfriends was a good idea. He did have a reputation.

Lily walked all over looking for him. She finally asked a 6th year Hufflepuff where he was but she said that she had seen him and Sirius leave to go to the common room a little while ago.

Lily felt terrible for ruining so many peoples' nights. As she walked over to her friends, she thought about what the night would have been like if she had said yes. She thought what the night would have been like if James had never asked her that one question.

A few weeks went by. It was mid-December. Lily and James had gotten past the question that James had asked her at the Halloween dance. They had decided to be friends while Lily thought about her feelings toward James. She still was trying to think about if James would be a good trusting boyfriend or if he would give up on her after a week. It was all very confusing.

Apart from the confusion upon the two teenagers, their friends were getting along very nicely. Elise and Sirius were looking very cute and had gotten very serious over the past month and a half. It was getting to the point where they were nauseating to look at.

Gwen and Remus were still going strong. Remus had told Lily and all of her friends that he was a werewolf under the influence of Sirius. He told Remus that the girls would understand and they wouldn't reject him. Sirius was very correct. By Remus trusting them with that information, he was showing his trust for Gwen, not to mention the other girls. Gwen assured Remus that if she was going to dump him, there was going to be a very good reason behind it. She wasn't going to dump him because he had a disease he couldn't help. This brought them closer together.

Sarah and Peter weren't going out anymore. They both agreed that they wanted time alone and weren't ready for a relationship like that. There weren't any tears or drama attached, just a mutual understanding.

Naturally drama finds its way into the most perfect situations.

The final Quidditch match before the winter break happened and the Gryffindor team won. There was a big party going on in the common room. Everyone was in there, 1st years through 7th years, celebrating the victory that the team had earned.

With everyone being in there and being hungry and thirsty, supplies were running low. Sirius and Remus had volunteered to go and get some more butterbeer and snacks from the kitchen.

The two had gotten two cases of butterbeer, carried by Remus, and two baskets full of snacks for the partying teens. Upon their journey back, they were stopped by Severus Snape and Roldolphus Lestrange. It wasn't after hours and they weren't against the rules, so Snape had no reason to stop them.

"Get your greasy self out of my way Snape. Isn't it time to take your yearly bath?" Sirius asked Snape with a look of contempt on his face. Remus was preparing to step in between of this potential fight. He charmed the bottles to be smaller to fit into his pocket.

"Snape, just get out of the way. We have a party to attend," Remus said trying to get past the git.

"We don't think you want to go that way. There is a sight that we don't think would agree with you," Snape sneered.

"Move Snape before I have to make you." Sirius took out his wand and pointed it at Snape threateningly.

"Are you sure? You don't trust our judgment?" Lestrange asked.

"Not really considering you hang out with my brother."

"Fine, go through, but don't say we didn't warn you." Snape and Lestrange moved to the side and went to watch the scene in front of them unfold. Sirius picked up the food and Remus followed him through the corridor to the stairs.

As they were walking up the stairs, the staircases changed. This wasn't helpful at all for the common room was on the other side of the building. Sighing, the two teenage boys made for a short cut they knew.

Before they reached the short cut, Sirius turned to look out of a balcony. Upon looking out of the balcony, he saw a sight that angered him. Remus turned to look and turned to stop Sirius from doing something drastic.

"Sirius, I'm sure that there is a perfect explanation to this." Sirius made to get past him but Remus using his werewolf reflexes and power to pin him against the wall. "Sirius, go back to the dorm and calm down. You can talk to her tomorrow." Sirius nodded and looked at the scene hurt.

Remus and Sirius carried the food and drinks to the common room. Sirius then went upstairs to brood over what he saw. Remus didn't even see James for he was surrounded by admirers. Remus didn't think it was necessary to tell him of what the two saw. After Sirius sorted out his thoughts, he would tell James and Peter all about it.

Sirius couldn't even fathom why she would do something like this. Hadn't he been everything she wanted? Hadn't she said last night that she loved him? He put everything on the line for him and she threw it out the window. She betrayed him and his trust. She broke his heart. It was the worst thing that ever happened to him.

He saw Elise, his girlfriend, making out on the balcony with his brother.
