Chapter 3:
The marauders were all standing stunned at the end of Remus' bed.
"She's right. Right?" Sirius said, breaking the silence.
Peter nodded and then looked up at James to see if he'd done the right thing.
"Yeah, I guess she is." James said.
"Ah, you're only saying that because Lily said it and if you agree with her than, uh-" Sirius broke off and nudged James in the ribs, raising his eyebrows.
"Oh shut up Sirius!" James said, but he couldn't suppress a grin.
"Guys?" said a feeble voice and they all turned their heads toward Remus who had just woken up. "I'll understand if you don't want to bunk with me anymore. I'll just talk to McGonagall about switching and I-"
"We want you to stay!" Sirius burst out.
"-and I'll get packed and, what did you say?"
"We still want to be your friend, dummy!" James said, rather harshly.
"Yeah!" Sirius burst in. "we aren't gonna let something you can't even control get between us!"
"Um," said Peter, looking around to see how best to fit in. "Of course!"
"Thanks guys. I've never had friends like you. I really appreciate you."
"You should." Said Sirius. "And we'll be with you till the end, every minute. Every day…"
"Yeah, and if I'm thinking the same thing Padfoot is, the full moons are gonna be a lot more easier for ya."
"What are you guys up to?" Remus asked, looking suspiciously between the two.
"You'll see." And James and Sirius began laughing with Remus looking confused and Peter chuckling to fit in.

"So you patched everything up with the guys?
"Yea, I guess you made them feel guilty and they realized what they were doing was wrong."
"Well, I think they would be pretty stupid to dump you. You're a great guy Remus."
"Thanks Lily." Remus sat there, his hand so close to Lily's and wondered if he should ask. He finally decided that sitting here by the lake with the sun setting was the perfect time. "Hey Lily,"
"Yea Remus?"
"Would you maybe wanna go with me to the next Hogsmeade weekend?"
"Sure." And as she replied, Remus touched her hand ever so slightly. She clutched his harder and leaned her head on his shoulder. They sat there like that for quite a while until Lily actually fell asleep in Remus' arms.
"Lily," Remus whispered, brushing her red hair off her face. "You're a beautiful person. You have a way of seeing the beauty in others when they can't see it in themselves and I'm thankful for you. I love you Lily Evans."
