Chapter 6: the short, brutal fight:

Lily POV

Well, as soon as I realized I'd left the picture, I started back. Then I realized, duh, I'm a witch! So I apparated back to the hotel. I appeared in the room just in time to see James' fist connect with Remus' head for what did not look like the first time. I freaked out.

"James? What are you doing?"

"Lily! He didn't hurt you did he?" he said, he looked worried about me.

"No! Why did you hit him?" I shrieked.

"Well, because he was trying to steal you." He stammered.

"Steal me?" here was the suffragette in me. "What am I? A broomstick? You don't own me James, you never did." I was on fire.

James was taken aback at the fact that I was not hurt or mad at Remus for what he probably thought was, "making a move on me". I rushed to Remus. He was unconscious and there was a fair amount of blood on his face and hair.

"James! Look what you've done!" James went pale.

"Um," he croaked, with the air of a man trying to undo what he had done. "Let's get him to St. Mungo's. He'll be okay, sweetie." He reached for my arm but I pulled away and glared at him. He recoiled.

"I'll take him." I said in a dangerous whisper. "You just...go home!" I was almost crying.

With one last look backward, James apparated. I choked back a sob. What a mess we were in! a noise on the floor startled me and I turned to see Remus stirring.

"Remus! Are you all right?"

"Am I what...?" He stuttered. Oh lord, he was out of it.

"It's okay Remus, you've been hurt. By a monster." I said, glaring at the spot where James had apparated.

"I'm a monster." He whispered absentmindedly.

"No, you're not. Come on." I grabbed his hand and we apparated to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries. They patched him up just fine. I was so glad James hadn't hurt him too badly. But I was also worried about patching up James and I's relationship. Or ending it.........

A/N: well, I must say thank you for bearing with me! Here it is. The sixth chapter. I am so happy! All the thanks goes to my parents 4 taking us on a surprise getaway to Michigan where I could my thoughts together and write this. And thanks to all of you for not giving up on me. Well, maybe ya did. Just come back now! And enjoy this chapter! Here are some thanks I must give:

TomTom21: yes, more painful Lily/Lupin ahead. Glad you like it though! It's so sad later on. Thanks for putting me on your alert! And sorry but I enjoy cliffies! 

Muse of the stars: I'm almost always in the library in the morning if ur looking for me! Just like Hermione. Except on Monday when the lab is open. With faster computers. Teehee. Thanks for another review!

Prongs Princess: wow! Thanks for making an exception and reading Lily/Lupin for me!  I appreciate and I am glad I have kept you enraptured!

LadyLupinLover: it's the review that counts! 

Deoxyribonucleic acid: well, thank you. I am accepting your criticism. I know I am biased towards Remus. That's why you're allowed to write about specific characters on here. We are all biased toward the characters we like. It happens, get over it. What do you do? Just go into categories you don't like just to bash the authors? That's pathetic. If you don't like them, DON'T READ THEM!!!!!! I don't like slash, so I just don't read it! I don't go around cutting down the authors! Get a life. Oh, and by the way, fine, don't write and see if I care but your lack of drive will hurt you in the long run. So, grow up.

Thank you for listening to my rambling. Sorry you had to see that last one. But, I was getting bashed and I had to do something about it. Muse of the stars knows. But, that will all end because he/she is BLOCKED now!!!!!! HA! So, stay tuned 4 the next installment, "Love Me Like That"! 
