Suddenly Sara walked into the room while Norma and Lily were talking about her. She had big, dark bags under her eyes, and she looked pale and weak. It reminded them of how Remus looked before the full moon. Even though Norma and Lily were mad at Sara, they still were concerned for her. "Sara, what happened?" Lily asked. She immediately regretted it.

"None of your business, Evans." Sara said meanly. Even weaken; Sara could hurt Lily's feelings.

"We just want to help you, Sara." Norma said. Sara looked at Norma coldly, but softened at the sight of her old friend.

"I think...I think I became a Death Eater." Sara said.

"What? Sara, why? How? When?" Lily asked.

"Just now. I was hanging out with some Slytherins. I mentioned that I wouldn't hang out with you guys anymore." Sara said as she sat down. "And they asked me to join their club. Well, one of them did. He was the only one who would talk to me. It turned out, to be...be...him."

"Him?" Norma said.

"You-Know-Who." Lily said. "Sara, did you join or not?"

"I...I think so." Sara said. "But I hope not. All this time, I thought the Slytherins were so cool. How could I have been so foolish?"

"You just wanted to be popular." Norma said. "We all want that sometimes."

"I would rather be unpopular than be a Death Eater." Sara said.

"Can you, like...unjoin?" Lily asked. "I know it sounds dumb, but..."

"I really hope I can." Sara said.

"Can we see the Mark?" Norma said. Lily gave her a look of disgust. "Well, I've always been curious! I mean, I've never seen one."

"You're lucky." Lily mumbled.

"What?" Sara asked.

"Oh, nothing." Lily asked. Sara was confused, but eventually pulled up her sleeve. On her forearm was The Dark Mark. Lily turned away and shuddered. Norma stared at it.

"Okay, enough of that." Sara said pulling down her sleeve. "I'm just glad to be back. Right, guys?" Sara looked at her friends. Lily wouldn't make eye contact.

"Well, it's just...why did you call me a bitch?" Lily asked.

"I wanted to be like the Slytherins. But not anymore. I'm really, really sorry Lily. I know it sounds like what I wrote in my journal, but I do mean it this time. I was just the worst. I hope you'll forgive me." Sara said.

"Yeah, of course I forgive you." Lily said half-heartedly. Sara didn't seem to notice though. She just hugged Lily and thanked her.

"Okay, I am so out of the loop. What is going on in your lives?" Sara asked.

"Well, Lily and James are going out, and Sirius doesn't seem jealous." Norma said. "Can you believe it? But did you hear about Kayla Thomas?"

"I have not heard anything about anything. Spill." Sara said.

"Well, there's a rumor going around that she likes this Muggle. Like, she loves him. I mean, she's a year younger than us, and talking about love? She's already picked the name for their kid. If it's a girl, Jeanne, and if it's a boy, Dean." Norma said. "They practically rhyme!" Norma laughed.

"Is she pregnant?" Sara asked.

"Of course not. I still think she's crazy, talking about love so young." Norma said.

"Why?" Lily asked, coming out of her deep thought.

"Well, I mean, she's in her fourth year. She's not getting married anytime soon." Norma said.

"I have to agree with Norma, Lily." Sara said. "Fourth year and picking out names for her kid? You've got to admit, that is crazy."

"Well, okay, picking names is a bit crazy." Lily said. "But talking about love? I don't know. What if I loved someone? Would you call me crazy?" Norma and Sara were silent for a minute, and then they started squealing. "What? What are you squeaking about?"

"You love James!" Norma cried out.

"What? No! No, I never said that!" Lily said. "No, no, no, no, no."

"First step, denial." Sara said, and burst out laughing again.

"What's the name going to be? Are you going to rhyme it like Kayla? Harry, Larry, Barry..." Norma said.

"Harry..." Lily said thinking.

"Oh my gosh, she's picking names!" Sara screamed.

"Will you both shut it?" Lily said, giving into the giggles now. "I was just thinking about what a nice name Harry was."

"Not James Jr.?" Sara said.

"No way. James will not be in the name if it's a boy." Lily said,

"Okay, now are we seriously picking names?" Norma asked. The three friends looked at one another and started laughing all over again. "What about if it's a girl?"

"Then definitely not a flower." Lily said. "Do you notice how my sister is named Petunia, after a flower, and I'm named Lily, after a flower? No flowers, whatsoever!"

"Okay then...how about Lila?" Norma said joking.

"Daisy?" Sara said joining in.

"Rose?" Norma said.

"Or maybe tulip?" Sara said.

"Okay, I am not naming my daughter tulip!" Lily said, laughing so hard she was crying.

"And not Lily Jr.?" Norma asked. Outside the room, James was walking and was about to knock on the door.

"If I'm not naming it James Jr., I'm not naming it Lily Jr." Lily said. James barged into the room.

"You wouldn't name our kid after me?" James said.

"Or tulip." Sara said and brought everyone but James into giggles.

"Not funny. Why are you lot picking out names anyway?" James asked.

"For fun?" Lily said. "Why are you getting so mad?"

"Why am I getting mad? You're not naming our son after me!" James shouted. "What, am I not good enough for you?"

"If you are impregnating me, wouldn't you think that I think you're good enough?" Lily said logically.

"But not good enough for our son, then?" James said.

"If it makes you feel better, I'm not naming our daughter Lily Jr. either." Lily said. "Not that it should matter."

"Why shouldn't it matter?" James asked.

"Who says we'll even last long enough for me to have a child?" Lily asked.

"So you see no future in this relationship?" James asked. "Is that it then?"

"James, I'm in my 5th year at Hogwarts, I don't want to think about marriage quite yet." Lily said.

"But you'll pick names for our children?" James said.

"I was just fooling around." Lily said.

"Do you fool around enough that you are constantly having to pick names?" James asked.

"Get out." Lily said. "Get out right this minute, James Potter."

"Fine, Lily Evans." James said walking out. "I hope you never have to really pick our children's names."

"I hope I never see you again!" Lily shouted and slammed the door. Then she started crying and lay down on her bed. Norma and Sara looked at each other not knowing what to do. What could anyone do?
