The Meaning of What's Meant to be

Chapter Two

Disclaimer: Just like pigs fly and cats swim I own Harry Potter…HAHA…I wish…

James was furious with Remus. How could he say such a thing to him? He cared more about Lily Evans then his reputation…Right? Of course I do. I care loads about Evans. More then anything else. If only she could see that… James spent the rest of the train ride glaring out the window. Even when the witch with the food trolley came by he didn't budge. He just kept glaring out the window. Now and then he would look at Remus and glare at him.

Sirius was thinking how odd Remus was being. He never really stood up for anyone. Unless it was one of them. Remus usually kept to his books and didn't say to much. That was just how he was. Quiet and calm, no matter what was going on. Him standing up for Evans like that was strange and far to different for him. Sirius knew that James liked Lily but secretly, Sirius liked her too. He would never hurt James by trying to take Lily from him, but if she came to him first there was nothing he could do about that. But now he worried that maybe Remus to wanted a piece of her. He wouldn't let Remus have her though. James yes but not Remus.

When the train stopped Sirius prodded James. "You can stop with the glaring and get off the train now."

"Go stuff it Black." James snapped at him.

"Okay…Have it your way." Sirius walked off the Train not looking back, Remus close behind while Pettigrew stayed behind James.

James didn't feel bad in the least for the way he had talked to his best friend. He knew Sirius would get over it and be all buddy with him again. Besides James was his best friend, no one could stay mad at their best friend.

Once in the Great Hall and seated at their designated tables, the Headmaster stood up and said a few words before the Sorting Hat was taken out and places apon each First Years head. As the First Years were being sorted to their new home, friends, and living areas James continued to glare at anyone who happened to be looking at him. He barely clapped when the some of the Firsties were sorted into Gryffindor. When they happened to look at him, James would give them a smouldering look and they would quickly sit down and look away.

Once all of them were sorted the Feast began. Food appeared on everyone's plates and on the huge Silver platters in front of them. James didn't eat much, mostly poked and prodded at his food, occasionally cramming a piece of something in his face in a very crazed was. His friends weren't doing much better.

Sirius couldn't stop staring at Lily. The way in which she tilted her head slightly back when she laughed or the way her eyes glittered when she smiled. She seemed to radiate happiness. Well, when she wasn't around James. Sirius noted the way the corners of her mouth would turn slightly down at the corners when someone said something that upset her. Or the way her emerald eyes seemed to loose their sparkle whenever James was mentioned. He watched her flip a piece of her auburn hair out of her face laughing at something someone had said. Sirius sighed at her beauty, knowing he would never get the chance to be with that beauty.

Lily felt eyes on her as she ate and laughed with her friends. Someone was watching her and she desperately hoped that it wasn't James. When she chanced a glance to where the watchful stare came from she was slightly surprised to see that it was Black who was looking at her. The corners of her mouth turned slightly down but soon her friend had her laughing. The smile spreading across her whole face. When she felt another pair of eyes on her she knew it had to be James this time. Who else would stare at her like that.

When she turned her head to looks she saw not James but Remus. She nearly fainted dead away when she saw him looking at her. Her crush on him had grown into some kind of obsession. She could look at him for hours. The way his eyes skimmed easily over the pages of a book, and when something amusing happened how he would smile or laugh quietly to himself. Or when something bad would happen or something he didn't understand, he would frown and mutter to himself things she couldn't hear. There was just something so entrancing about Remus Lupin. If only she could figure out what had her so infatuated with him. It was a wonder that she had been able to keep her cool around him this long.

Lily soon found herself staring and blushed, quickly turning away.

James looked around and saw none other then Lily Evans staring at him. Now why would she be looking at me hmm?? She must fancy me as much as I her then. James smiled ever so slightly. Looking around him noticing the only other person Evans may have been looking at was Remus and laughed mentally at the idea of Evans looking at him. The odds are slim. Very very slim, that she would be looking at him and not me. Why would anyone want to look at him? He has his head in his books. At least I let people admire my good looks. James winked as a girl passed him and Smiled as she nearly fainted away when he did so.

James knew that he was the most sought after guy in the school. Everyone wanted a piece of him. But James never let them go any farther then a snogging session. His heart was waiting for her. For Evans to understand that he cared about her more then she would ever know. He would wait until the end of time for her to feel the same for him. And to this he vowed…Never will I go with another girl until Lily Evans is mine. And then, and only then, will I settle down and be with one person. And that one person will only ever be Her. He said this to himself but promised to keep it. He wanted her and if he had to wait forever he would get her to fall for him the same way that he had fallen for her.
