James went back up to his common room, reviewing to himself what the
Fat Lady had told him. He couldn't believe he had to make friends with
Snape. Oh, well, if he could win Lily over, he'd do anything. James spotted
Snape walking towards him. What a coincidence, he thought.
"Hi, Severus," James said pleasantly. "How's it goin'?"
"Hi, yourself, pea brain," Snape replied.
"Why Severus," This was hurting James more and more. "Can't a guy just be friendly for once?"
"Yeah, right," Snape said, still not believing James.
"Oh, come on, Severus," James pleaded, "Let's go play some wizard's chess,"
"I don't know..." Snape said.
"Please?"
"Oh, all right, Potter," So Snape and James headed outside to enjoy the evening and play a friendly game of wizard's chess.
"Why do you have to be such a pig?" Maria screamed. She and Sirius were having a fight while Remus and Peter watched on with interest.
"I'm sorry, Mi," Sirius said calmly, "I don't know why you're making such a big deal out of this," Sirius had been getting scolded constantly by Maria for checking out other girls but this time she had had enough. And to think earlier today Sirius had went shopping for an engagement ring. The one he bought was so pretty, although not very expensive or big. He planned to give it to her tonight when they went to Hogsmeade.
"Are we still going to Hogsmeade tonight?" Sirius asked her, thinking of the ring.
"I don't know!" Maria said in a huff and walked off.
"Check mate!" Snape said triumphantly. James sighed.
"That makes 5-0. Geez, Severus, I didn't know you were so good at chess,"
"Well, now you know. Were going to have to play again sometimes, Potter...er I mean James," They walked back to the castle together and met Lily along the way.
"Hi, Lily," James and Snape said at the same time.
"Hello," she said and stopped to chat for a while. It works! James silently praised the Fat Lady. "Do you guys want to come up to my common room?" Lily asked. "Some of the other girls and me are having a party,"
"Absolutly," said James.
"I don't know," said Snape. "I better pass, I have the Potions extra credit essay to do,"
"Okay," said Lily. Then she turned to James, "I'll see ya at eight."
James decided to go back up to his dorm before the party and freshen up. He saw Maria and Sirius sitting on an armchair. Maria was on Sirius' lap. On her finger was the ring Sirius had given her. Apparently they were done fighting.
"Hi, Severus," James said pleasantly. "How's it goin'?"
