A/N: Ok, hoped you like it so far, blah, blah, blah, get on with the story, people!

When they arrived at the hospital wing, several teachers, including Dumbledore, and the Potters were standing around the bed where James lay. Madame Pompfrey closed the curtains are him and let the Potters and James' friends see him privately. While the Potters were inside, Madame Pompfrey explained to the gang that James had a very bad concussion and a small crack in his skull. If he didn't regain consiousness soon, he could very well die. That was of no comfort to them.

Mr. And Mrs. Potter came out comforting Sirius, Peter, and Remus and being introduced to Meira, Holly, and Clohe. Sirius was the last to see James and when he got out the girls had already left, but a very tired Remus was waiting for him.

"Is something wrong, Moony? I mean besides this?" Sirius asked concerned.

"Full moon is near," Remus muttered softly.

"Oh, well…you can go back up to the dorm, I'm going to stay here a little while longer," Sirius said knowing Remus needed to sleep.

"Sirius this must be awful for you," Mrs. Potter said as Remus left. "I can't imagine what it's like to see your best friend almost killed."

Tears finally came out of Sirius' eyes, and when Mrs. Potter hugged him he only cried harder. Even when his mother had thought there was some hope in him she had never hugged him like Mrs. Potter did then. He didn't want James to die.

"Sirius!" Dumbledore said after the Potters left, "I didn't know you were still here. You should go get some rest, you've had a very long day, and many more to come."

"Sir? I was wondering if I could stay down here with James, just so I could be with him," Sirius said sheepishly.

"I don't see why not, in fact that could be a very good idea," Dumbledore said thinking about something.

After some arguing by Madame Pompfrey and Dumbledore, Sirius was allowed to stay with James. He tried to sleep, he really did, but he couldn't. So, instead he talked to James. He told him everything, how hard it was for him at home and how he was going to run away, how he liked Holly, but most of all he told James how much he loved him.

"Remember that one summer when I was over and we went into the muggle town. I dressed up as a, whatchamacallit, oh yeah, a clown for that girl's birthday party while you tied the real clown up. That was the oddest thing I've ever done. Those kids just kept expecting me to do the stupidest things, and then that kid threw a pie at me! Muggles really are quite odd if you ask me. But we got a lot of money for it and we bought a soccer ball with it. That was tons of fun even if we didn't have broomsticks. Those muggle midgets were crazy though. Kept kicking the ball this way and that, of course, once we found out you couldn't use your hands we were all right. And remember when we convinced your parents to buy a TV? We spent the whole day setting that up and we watched it all the time. That show 'The Wiggles' kind of scared me though. A whole bunch of guys dressed up in funny colors, I don't see what kids like it for." and Sirius went on like that for the most of the night.

Around two in the morning, Sirius started to doze off. He was laying on half of James' bed and half on his own.

"Sirius?" came a shaking voice from James, "What are you doing?"

"JAMES!" Sirius cried joyously, "You're alive! And awake! Madame Pompfrey, Madame Pompfrey!"

She came running into the room and immediately started firing questions at James to see if his memory was ok. After she determined that his memory was fine, she left to make a sleeping drought.

"What happened?" James asked confused.

"Diggory," Sirius added a couple of choice words after his name, "just wapped you around the head with a beater's bat, and then you fell off your broomstick to the ground, oh, I'd say about a hundred feet."

"Why am I not dead then?" James asked unconcerned.

"I, well, I'm not quite sure because I had to take care of a few people," Sirius said smiling.

"I hope you beat the bloody heck out him," James said giving Sirius a weak smile.

"I think he might think twice before coming near you, or anyone I'm friends with for awhile," Sirius said laughing.

"Boys, that is quite enough. Mr. Diggory is also in the hospital, and although he is nowhere near as bad off as you, I'd say it was the worst anyone's ever been beaten up before," Madame Pompfrey said sternly, "Now drink this my dear boy."

James fell immediately asleep after he drank the sleeping drought, and Sirius for the first time that night, fell into a peaceful sleep.

"Lily, Sirius didn't mean it," Holly tried to explain for like the millionth time during History of Magic.

"Yes he did! It's been four days since they've even talked to me, let alone, let me see James. And don't tell me that his injuries aren't that bad because his parents are still here and have you seen Sirius, Remus, and Peter? They mope around acting like the world is going to end, and they haven't even bothered Snape!" Lily said a little loudly, causing Proffesser Bins to look at her.

"Is something wrong, Ravens?" he said although you could tell he didn't care at all.

"Yes Sir, I need to go to the hospital wing," Lily replied already heading out the door.

She ran to the hospital wing and asked Madame Pompfrey if she could see James. "Yes Lily, dear," she had replied, "Third bed on the left." She took a deep breath and opened up the curtains, she gasped-Sirius was inside.

"What are you doing here?" Sirius growled.

"I want to see James," Lily replied not batting an eyebrow.

"Sure, probably more like posion him. Here's an idea for you, Evans, go check on Pretty-boy Diggory, he seems to have a few injuries," Sirius said laughing cruelly, "Go on you filthy little Mudblood," tears swelled up in Lily's eyes, causing Sirius to regret what he said.

"Sirius!" James said suddenly waking up.

"James, you're awake!" Lily and Sirius said together.

"Chill out man, judas priest, just give the girl some time with me," James said smiling as Sirius left unhappy.

"James, I-I," Lily began.

"Don't worry Lily, Sirius was mad because he didn't think of hitting anyone with a beater's bat first. And you have connections with the one who did somebody with one, unfortunately it happened to be me. And Sirius thinks that it's his fault that I was hurt," James said comfortingly.

"I would never tell Amos to hurt you," Lily said seriously.

"I know, even you couldn't hate me that much Evans," James raised an eyebrow.

"I don't hate you James!" Lily said laughing.

"You gave a good impression of it," James teased her.

"Ok, ok! Maybe I was a little harsh, but you were so full of yourself, and still are, but we can be friends from now on, right?" Lily replied.

"I knew you couldn't resist the Potter Charm!" James said laughing as Lily rolled her eyes.

"Speaking of Potter Charm, I hear you're going with Miera," Lily said.

"Yep!" James said happily, "Me and the prettiest girl in school, and she's good at quid ditch!"

"I'll leave you to dream, Potter," Lily sniggered.

"Yes, you wouldn't want to miss too much class just to see me, would you Evans," James said shooting her an evil grin.

Lily laughed and said she'd see him around. She opened up the curtain and was face to face with Sirius. He jumped about ten feet in the air which gave her the impression he was trying to eavesdrop.

"Evans, I-" Sirius began sheepishly.

"Oh stop it, Sirius. I know you didn't mean it," Lily said laughing.

"Yeah, maybe, but that's something a Black would say. Maybe I can't deny my true family's feelings on these sort of things," Sirius continued.

"Sirius, really! You are the most unblackish Black I've ever seen! If you keep saying that I'm going to hit you with a beater's bat. And don't worry, James still has his sense of humor. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing," Lily said, kissed Sirius on the cheek, and left.

Sirius rubbed the spot where Lily had kissed him. And she said that he was the most unblackish Black she'd ever seen. It only occurred to him then that she had never any other Blacks. He laughed out loud at this, waved to Diggory who was leaving the hospital wing, and went inside to tell James that Lily Evans had just kissed him on the cheek.

A/N: Ok, so please review and I'll try to update soon. School's out for summer so I'll have a lot more time! YEAH!! Hope you liked it and point out things you want me to improve on when you review. This is only my first real fic, unless you count the one I've only done one chapter one, so I'm sure I still have a lot to learn. It would really help! Thanks again to everyone who read this and helped me with it. Tell your friends about it!
