I forgot my disclaimer last time hope you like this.

Disclaimer: If I owned any of this would I have to write this? That's what I thought. No, this all belongs to the goddess J K Rowling except any characters you don't recognize.

James makes sure she's upstairs before he talks to Sirius.

"So Padfoot, what's up?" James asks.

"I could ask you the same question."

"She found my mom drunk this morning. I had to explain to her so she'd understand."

"Ah ha, well I was wondering if you wanted to do anything, but it looks like Lily stayed over last night. Maybe I should leave you two alone today."

"Why?"

"You mean you guys didn't…"

"NO! Padfoot are you bloody crazy? She was upset last night, I couldn't take advantage of her. Besides it's Lily Evans remember she hates me."

"Prongs mate, it didn't seem like she hated you when I popped in. so why was she upset?"

"I can't tell you mate. She'd kill me."

"You didn't try anything with her did you Prongs?"

"I kissed her…but she kissed me back mate."

"Evans doesn't hate you then, I'd say she likes you."

"She's not at all the goody two shoes we thought she was. Why don't we meet up in Diagon Alley invite Eloise, I noticed you two were pretty close yesterday."

"Sounds good, how about 11:00?" Sirius says. James checks his watch, its 10:30.

"Ok, we'll meet you then. Bye Padfoot."

"Bye Prongs." Sirius says. James gets up and goes upstairs. He heads to Lily's room and looks in. Lily's sitting in a chair by the fireplace, a fire is lit. She's writing in a book.

"Hey there Lils." he says. She looks up and smiles.

"Hey, come in." she says. James walks in and sits down beside her in the other chair.

"What you doing?" he asks her.

"Writing; why."

"We're going to Diagon Alley hurry up and get ready. You can have your shower first."

"Thanks. I know how hard this is on you; I mean I don't want to make it any harder. I can look after myself."

"You don't make it harder, believe me." James says and chuckles. He gets up and leaves.

"The world's not such a bad place, if we can just get along. Everybody in the world, singing the tune to the very same song. Oooh oh, oooh oh. Oooh oh, oooh oh" Lily sings in the shower. She turns the water off and hops out. She wraps a towel around her and knocks on the door which leads to James' room. He opens it.

"Nice voice."

"You can get in now." Lily says. He comes in and she exits through the door to her room. She gets changed into a forest green tee and a dark denim skirt. She puts the curling spell on her hair again, this time it dries it too. She's ready now. Lily walks over to James' door, it's open. She watches him. Wow, he's got a great body, she thinks. This is the first time she noticed his six pack and his muscular body. He looks over at her.

"Hey." James says to her. "I'm almost ready." he says. He throws on a red tee-shirt and they go downstairs. The fire is already out. "Have you ever travelled by floo powder before?"

"Yep, with Jenna." she says. She takes a handful of the powder and steps into the fireplace. "Diagon Alley" James does the same thing. They arrive a little after 11:00. Sirius and Eloise are already there.

"Hey guys." James says.

"Hey." they say in unison.

"Can we go to Gringott's first? I need to get some money out." Lily says.

"No need, I have enough." James tells her.

"I can't let you do that."

"Lily just let him, he always gets what he wants." Sirius says to her. Lily looks at James as if to say, did you tell him. He nods. She shakes her head.

"Fine, but only because I know Sirius is right". Eloise gives Sirius a confused look. I'll explain later, he mouths. "Where to first?"

"Quidditch store." James and Sirius say in unison. Eloise and Lily laugh. Sirius puts his arm around Eloise's waist and they all walk over to Avo's Quidditch Supplies. They enter the store. They split up and wander around, James and Lily go one way, Sirius and Eloise got the other.

"Do you need any help James?" a young girl comes up and asks. She's the same age as them. She's got an hourglass figure, bleach blonde hair, and blue eyes. She doesn't take her eyes off James. Lily watches her. Why's she watching James like that? Wait, am I jealous of her, Lily wonders. James sees Lily watching the girl. He knows her from school, Tammie from Hufflepuff. She's just some blonde bimbo. Tammie's hot though. Is Lily jealous, he wonders.

"Tammie nice to see you, but no I don't think I need any help."

"Well you know if you do just give a shout." she says. She walks away, putting an exaggerated sway in her hips. James leans in and whispers in Lily's ear.

"Don't be jealous."

"WHAT! You think I'm jealous of that bimbo. Come on James." Lily tells him quietly. She walks out of the store. Crap, James thinks. He finds Sirius and Eloise by the brooms.

"Eloise do you think you could go find Lily, she just walked out. No explanation or anything." James asks her. She looks up at Sirius, he nods and removes his arm from her shoulders.

"Sure James." she says and walks out of the store. Sirius turns to James.

"What did you do this time mate?"

"I didn't do anything. We were looking at the snitches when Tammie came up…"

"Wait Tammie, as in Tammie Walker from Hufflepuff."

"Yeah…so when Tammie left I told Lily not to be jealous."

"Prongs."

"You know how I meant it." James tells Sirius. He nods.

"But Lily doesn't."

"I gotta go find her."

"Eloise is there mate, just leave her alone for a bit." Sirius tells James.

"Lily…" Eloise says quietly when she finds her. She's sitting on a bench just down the alley. Lily looks up. "Hey, can I sit down?"

"Yep." Lily says. Eloise joins her on the bench.

"Why'd you leave like that?"

"He told me not to be jealous. Jealous of that blonde bimbo Tammie Walker. Can you believe that?" she asks.

"Were you jealous? I mean if it was Sirius that she was coming on to, she was coming on to James wasn't she?" Lily nods. "I know I'd be jealous."

"But you like Sirius, Eloise. I don't like James, why would I be jealous."

"Lily…come on, when he kissed you this morning didn't you kiss him back?"

"What!? … How'd you find out about that? Oh my god, Sirius told you didn't he?" Lily asks. Eloise nods. "Why does he have to make my life harder?"

"If he is, he's not doing it on purpose. James wouldn't do that."

"How long have you know James?"

"My whole life. We used to be neighbours, but then my family moved. James and I kept in touch though."

"Eloise…"

"Yeah?"

"Maybe I was jealous, maybe I do like him."

"No offence Lily, but you'd have to be pretty stupid not to. I mean, if I wasn't dating Sirius I'd wanna go out with James."

"I used to hate James, he was…is an annoying git."

"So you don't hate him now? Is that it?"

"I don't know." Lily says.

"Padfoot they've been gone awhile, we're going to find them." James tells Sirius. They go up to the counter and James buys the snitch he was looking at before. Tammie watches them as they leave. James sees her, she waves. He ignores her. It's her fault Lily's upset.

"Prongs mate; I know what's going on in your head. It's not Tammie's fault Lils mad at you, it's yours."

"Shut up mate." he says. They walk down the alley and find them sitting on the bench, they stop not far from them. Eloise and Lily don't notice them.

"No offence Lily, but you'd have to be pretty stupid not to. I mean, if I wasn't dating Sirius I'd wanna go out with James." Sirius gives James the evil-eye.

"I used to hate James, he was…is an annoying git."

"So you don't hate him now? Is that it?"

"I don't know." Lily says. She looks up and sees James standing there. He looks upset. She mumbles, "Crap. James I don't hate you." He turns around and walks away. Lily gets up and goes after him. Eloise gets up and goes over to Sirius, she hugs him.

"Did you hear us talking?" she asks. He nods. "I'm going out with you. I meant if I hadn't met you. Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm fine, but remember that you're with me."
