Chapter Fourteen

Sirius fell asleep until late in the next morning. He missed breakfast and didn't go anywhere until lunch. He stayed up in his room thinking about how he was going to deal with Elise. He obviously had to talk to her about it. He'd take it as it came he decided. He made his way to lunch very sullen.

Elise hadn't seen Sirius since he went to get snacks last night. She assumed he was tired and forgot to say goodnight to her. So when he came to lunch she smiled at him and tried to give him a kiss of greetings. Sirius flinched and pulled away.

Elise looked hurt for a moment but brushed it aside. Remus and their friends all noticed this and looked at Sirius curiously. They soon went back to eating their meal not trying to be meddlesome in their friends' affairs.

"What's wrong Sirius? You seem distracted," Elise asked Sirius. She moved in to kiss him again but he pulled away angrily.

"How dare you try to kiss me after what you've done? You bitch," Sirius spat at Elise. She looked so hurt and on the verge of tears. By the end of this statement, all of their friends and most of the Gryffindor table were looking at them.

"What are you talking about, Si-"

"DON'T TRY TO ACT ALL INNOCENT! I ASW YOU LAST NIGHT! YOU WERE CHEATING ON ME! DID YOU THINK THAT I WOULDN'T FIND OUT? DID YOU THINK IT WOULD BE GREAT FUN TO CHEAT ON ME? I BET YOU AND MY BROTHER, OF ALL PEOPLE, WERE LAUGHING AT ME, MOCKING ME WHILE YOU MADE OUT WITH HIM!" By now everyone in the Great Hall were watching the incident unfold before them. Girls were gasping and men glared. Sirius was too good for this. Even though he was a womanizer, he never cheated on them or helped cheating on anyone else. He didn't condone it.

"Sirius, I never-"

"DON'T TRY TO PULL THAT BULLSHIT ON ME! I SAW YOU MAKINGOUT WITH REGULUS ON THE BALCONY LAST NIGHT. HOW DARE YOU? AM I NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU? IHOPE MY BROTHER CAN FILL THE NEEDS FOR YOU THAT I DIDN'T ELISE, BECAUSE WE ARE THROUGH. I CAN'T BE AROUND ANYONE THAT CHEATS ON ME! GOODBYE ELISE." With that he walked out of the Hall, leaving gaping people in his wake.

Elise sat there, stunned at what just happened. After the initial shock wore off, she burst into sobs. Lily, being the one next to her, hugged her and let her cry on her shoulder. Lily whispered comforting words to her.

"I swear I didn't do anything to him. I swear that I didn't go anywhere near Regulus. Why would I want anyone else?" Elise really started crying at the way Sirius treated her.

"What are you talking about? I saw you with Sirius. You were making out with his brother. You are a cheating piece of scum that doesn't deserve Sirius's love. Tell me something Elise, was it worth it. Can't answer? Well, I hope you regret everything you ever did him," Remus said. Gwen gasped and slapped him across the face.

"How dare you say that to her! She was with us all last night. She was talking to me, Lily, and James all last night. She didn't go anywhere near Regulus last night. You have no right to treat her that way Remus." Remus stared at his girlfriend.

"Look, I know what I saw. Unless Elise has some sort of a twin, she was kissing another guy. I'm sorry that you guys don't understand!" Remus stood up and walked out of the room upset that his girlfriend would try and tell him that he didn't see something he saw.

Drama has seemed to find them yet again.

(

Lily and Gwen had taken Elise upstairs and calmed her into a sleep. After all of the crying she did, she was tired. Gwen went over to find Remus and ask him what his deal was. She couldn't have any of her friends being abused by her boyfriend.

James was the only other person in the common room. After Remus was lead away, James took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. He stared up at the ceiling and sighed. He looked exhausted. It was probably because he had the game and party yesterday and the drama of his friends today. Lily knew she was tired. She went and sat next to James.

James put on his glasses when he felt the weight of someone sitting next to him. It was Lily, sitting next to him. She wasn't sitting in the empty chair or couch next to him. His was sitting next to him. His heart fluttered at the sight. Lily sighed before speaking.

"You know that she didn't cheat on Sirius right?" James nodded.

"He thinks that he saw her cheating on him. He's really up set. How's she holding up?"

"She cried a lot and is now sleeping. She's really broken hearted at how he would even think that. This is so stupid." James nodded again and the two fell into a comfortable silence.

"Lily, have you thought about us? Have you thought about what we talked about a couple of weeks ago?" Lily nodded.

"Everyday I think about it."

"Do you have an answer for me? I really like you Lily." He didn't want to tell her that he might love her because he didn't want to scare her.

"James I do have an answer. If you really like me as you say you do, then you will challenge Sirius to a duel and hurt him as much as possible for slandering my friend." James looked appalled for what she had proposed. He couldn't harm his friend. Sirius was always there for him. He made one mistake and harm the love of his life and now Lily wanted him to duel him.

When he had voiced this, Lily looked outraged. "James Potter, you said that you liked me. You will do this and you will challenge him to a duel. If you don't, you won't have me, understand? Now go!" James nodded and went to challenge Sirius.

(

James went upstairs and talked to Sirius.

"SIRIUS, SHE WAS WITH ME AND THE GIRLS LAST NIGHT! HOW COULD YOU POSSIBLY SAY THIS TO HER?! HOW COULD YOU DO THAT TO HER?! YOU BASTARD! NOW, SINCE YOU SLANDERED AN INNOCENT GIRL'S NAME, I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!"

"JAMES! I SAW HER!"

"YOU SAW WRONG BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY SHE COULD HAVE! DO WE HAVE A DUEL?!"

"YES YOU SON OF A BITCH! I'M GOING TO KILL YOU JAMES!"

(

Lily heard everything from downstairs. When James emerged, she gave him a kiss. "Thank you James." James didn't know whether to be happy because he finally had Lily or upset that his friend would no longer be his.

A/N: There you go. Hope you like them. Lily seems like such a bitch but I assure you that she isn't. She just panicked. So, please review.
