Lily stopped at the bottom of the staircase to catch her breath. Just then, Veronica came stumbling into the castle wet, drunk, and covered in seaweed.

"Hey Lily." she cheered while grabbing onto the same railing that Lily clutched. "Are you... okay?"

"No Veronica, I am far from okay. Now are you okay?" she asked while choking back tears. Veronica hiccuped and brushed some salty hair out of her face.

"I am fine! Wow swimming is fun.." she smiled. "Now its late, lets all go to bed."

After hearing the word 'bed', Lily just broke down and started sobbing again.

"Lily?" asked Veronica as she slipped down onto the ground next to Lily, "Are you sure your okay?"

"I'm fine!" yelled Lily as she got up and ran through the portrait hole.

"Okay." shrugged Veronica as she leaned against the wall. She looked up as James came trudging down the staircase, head hanging low.

"Hey James." yelled Veronica as she stumbled to her feet. "What's up!" she gave him a big hug.

"Are you... drunk?"

"You bet! I am totally plastered!" cheered Veronica.

"Oh shit. What exactly did you do in the lake, Veronica?" asked James, thinking Sirius got her drunk to get her guard down.

"Well we went swimming in our underwear... then the squid came and gave us a ride to the other side of the pond where we ate berries and then he gave us a ride back to shore where we dried off and went back into the castle." she sighed.

"When did you drink?" he asked.

"Well the berries we were eating had alcohol in them! How cool is that?"

"Oh." sighed James. "So Sirius is drunk too?"

"Yeah. And now I am going to go back to the dorms... And by the way I think Lily was upset, m-mabey you should go comfort her later...." she slurred while staggering towards the portrait hole.

"Wait!" he said while grabbing her and kissing her. Now there are many reasons not to kiss a drunk girl. But there are many advantages to kissing a drunk girl. Unless she is you best friends girlfriend.

"What the-" she slurred while pushing him away, but he pulled her back and continued to kiss, putting his tongue into her mouth. It tasted like a mix of beer and strawberry.

"James," she moaned in between kissing, "I think this isn't right..."

"No." James said, "Trust me, its fine." he added while taking his hand and putting it in her shirt, about to fondle her...

"Seriously!" she giggled while pushing him away. "I really have to go to bed." and with that, she walked away, falling into the wall only twice before reaching her dorm.

James sighed again. Now he wasn't only in hot water with Lily, but with Veronica, AND Sirius, her bOYFRIEND. "I hate hormones... Tomorrow is going to be a loong day.." he muttered while loosening his tie and trudging up to his dorm.

The next morning, Veronica woke up and her head was pounding. She rolled over in her bed, almost getting sick after smelling the saltwater that was all over her pillow. "What the fuck..." she moaned.

"Vee!" yelled Tori as she rushed over. "Are you okay?????"

"Hell no, my head kills and I smell like the mother fucking lake." she said.

"Well you don't remember anything from yesterday?" asked Devonny from across the room, where she was stroking Lily's hair as the girl was curled up a ball at the end of her bed, sobbing.

"Only going to detention but not going to detention.." she thought.

"Well two went to the lake and swam in your underwear with Sirius, then you got drunk off berries, but Sirius is a good person who cares about you so I don't think he did anything." explained Adele. "And I don't think he has the urge as bad as James..." Lily sniffled.

"And what happened to Lily?" Veronica asked while rolling out of bed, hitting the floor, and scrambling over to her. "And what the hell did James do this time?"

"James tried to touch me even though I said no." whispered Lily as her body began to quiver.

"No he didn't!!!!!" yelled Veronica as she hugged Lily, forgetting about her headache.

"Yes, and a fourth year saw him kiss you!" she sobbed.

"What the-" said Veronica. "Lily I was drunk, I swear I didn't mean to-"

"I am not mad at you, he tried to fondle you! But luckily you had enough sense to push him away-"

"HE TRIED TO WHAT?" She yelled, making her hangover headache like 10 times worse.

"He tried to take of your shirt!" said Lily before flopping down on the bed and crying.

"FUCK!" yelled Veronica as she stormed out of the dorm, still wearing a soaking wet white t shirt and an equally as wet skirt.

"Wait, Miss Wet T-shirt contest, change your clothes. James doesn't talk to faces, he talks to-" began Tori, but she had left already.

Devonny frowned to herself as she hugged Lily. "This isn't the time to tell them about me..." she thought as a silent tear fell down her face, as well.

Veronica stormed into the seventh year boys dorms, seeing Remus in the corner frowning and shaking his head, James groaning and hitting himself, and Sirius was standing around and frowning as well.

"Veronica!" he spoke as soon as she came in.

"This!-" said Veronica while slapping him very hard, "-Is for getting me drunk, leaving me, and probably doing things to me!"

"I swear I didn't-" be began, but she rounded on James.

"You ASSHOLE! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO LILY? AND WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO TO ME? WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM?" she screamed while slapping him as hard as she possible could.

"I- I didn't mean for it to go that far and-"

"HOW COULD YOU TOUCH LILY WHEN SHE SAID NO? AND HOW COULD YOU TRY TO DO THE SAME TO ME?"

"Well I was caught up in the moment and you were drunk and-"

"SO IT WAS OKAY TO TOUCH ME BECAUSE I AM DRUNK!?" she screamed while slapping him again.

"Hormones." said James before hanging his head ins silence.

"And Sirius, I believe you, but just don't leave me drunk around overly-horny assholes?" she said quickly before rushing out of the dorms.

"Shit.. I messed up.." groaned James. "Lily probably won't even talk to me. And we still have to go to the ball together."

"At least Veronica isn't too mad at me." said Sirius. "And I really didn't do anything to her.. I have respect for girls." he said while glaring at James.

"Look I am sorry I kissed her, I got out of control." said James.

"Whatever. I just need some time to think, okay? And I won't be at Quidditch practice today." he said while storming out of the room.

"Remus." said James. "What do I do?"

"I don't know James, it looks like you really screwed up." said Remus. "And I can't give you my advice."

"Please, I really need it." moaned James.

"Well you have ever listened before, but here goes..." he took a deep breath. "Just leave Lily alone. Don't bug her, let it sort of fade out. Let her come to you." Remus said wisely.

"But-"

"No buts, that's my advice. Just try and listen for once?" said Remus.

"Okay, thanks." said James. "Now shall we share a manly embrace?"

"Nah, let's just shake hands instead." and it was so.

James changed into his Quidditch robes, not excited for Saturday morning practice. He trudged out onto the pitch to see his cheerful team, all lined up, waiting for practice to start.

"Hello Mister Potter." said Veronica darkly with an bittersweet grin on her face.

"Veronica, hi. Well everyone, put away your brooms. We don't need practice in the air, so we are doing dry lands." He said lamely. "Sprint from one end of the pitch to the other until I tell you to stop. Now go."

All of the younger team members who worshipped James sprinted eagerly, but Veronica yawned and sat down on the ground.

"You have to run like everyone else on the team, Veronica." said James, carefully choosing his words.

"No, I fancy having a rest. Just do me a favor and don't try to fondle me whilst I sleep." she snapped while laying on the ground.

"Look, I am sorry. I know what I did was inexcusable." mused James.

Veronica rolled over onto her back. "Yeah, all I have been hearing lately is 'Sorry Veronica, I was wrong' and 'I am so sorry, it won't happen again.' I mean how many fucking second chances am I supposed to give? Actually, I am actually up to 5th chances with Sirius." she said in a tired voice.

"I know, and if you don't want to accept my apology its alright." he frowned.

"Its okay, whatever. I know you are actually just a decent person who made a mistake and got caught up in the moment. Plus I am drop dead sexy and extremely irrisistable. The tough part is not getting my acceptance, it's Lily's. And Sirius's."

"Yeah." sighed James. "How is she?"

"Well she is pretty upset. And she doesn't plan on talking to you ever again." said Veronica as she propped herself up on her elbows.

"Shit. And Sirius won't talk to me either I guess." James said.

"Yeah, well you tried to fuck his girlfriend." laughed Veronica. "I am pretty dumb when I am drunk, aren't I?"

"I'm not in the mood for this." sighed James as he sat down on the ground as well.

"Actually, a little laugh is just what you need. Let's go down to Hogsmeade and just let loose and chill out." said Veronica.

"So now you want to have fun with me?" asked James blankly.

"No you retard. I mean like go in some shops, take your mind off things."

"Ok, let's go."

"What about your team?"

"The pitch is over a mile long round trip, and we are all out of shape, they won't make it back before dark."

"Cool." said Veronica as she and James got up, and began to plan the best route to sneak into town.

Back up in the girl's dorms, Lily sighed and rolled out of bed after a long sleep. "Afternoon, Lils." said Devonny as she put down the magazine she was reading.

"What are you still doing here Dev? Shouldn't you be put enjoying the sunshine?"

"I was waiting for you to wake up so we can chill or whatever." replied Dev. "And I bought you the newest issue of Vogue! Pre-read to be sure its a good one."

"Thanks." sniffled Lily. "You are a good friend."

"You are surrounded by good friends. I bet Vee would be right here if she didn't have quidditch." said Dev as she magicked some ice cream and tissues with her wand. "Now empty a pint of Ben and Jerry's and a box of Kleenex while you talk to me."

"Ok... well I think I made a horrible mistake Dev." said Lily as she tucked into the ice cream.

"How? James was the creep, not you." said Dev with a raised eyebrow.

"I think I was a little over dramatic, I mean I said no and all, but I was too harsh and now I am sobbing so much I may drown in my tears..."

"How many times did he keep going after you said no?"

"Two, then I bailed out." answered Lily.

"Tsk tsk, that's what you get for dating an overly-horny guy. But what do you think, I mean was the ship that good that it's worth a second chance?" asked Devonny.

"Well... I just don't know."

"Just give it time, then."

"Thanks, Devonny, you are the best cosmic advisor."

"No prob, thats what I do. Now Degrassi marathon is on, let's watch the tele so we can see relationships that are even more troubled than yours!"

Lily laughed as Devonny conjured another spoon, and the girls watched TV while eating high-cal ice cream.

Back to Veronica and James, the duo were hunched over and walking underneath James's invisibility cloak, looking at the Marauders map as they climbed up a marble staircase leading to the statue of the one-eyed witch.

"Dissendum." said James as he tapped the hump on the witch's back, opening a small hole.

"I'm impressed with all this rule-breaking technology." laughed Veronica.

"Ladies first." said James. Veronica shrugged and hoisted herself down into the hole. James followed and soon they emerged in the cellar of Honeydukes Sweet Shoppe.

"So where to?" asked James.

"Lets get ice cream on the corner and walk to the Shreiking Shack." said Veronica.

"But why?" asked James.

"You will see." said Veronica as they snuck out of the cellar.

So they got ice cream and began to walk.

"Have you noticed.." said Veronica. "That the shrieking shack is only haunted once a month?"

James faltered. Did she know about Remus's secret? "Yeah, I know. Isn't that weird?"

"Yeah and lately there have been reported haunts, more than their regular pattern." Veronica continued.

"Wait, so you go around timing when this place is haunted, and determine irregular patterns? I never knew you had a brain, Veronica. All I knew was you had huge knockers.. I mean.. nothing.. yeah..."

"Don't go there Potter. And i don't plan this shit, Nat, y'know that smart Ravenclaw? Well she planned this all and was boring me half to death with the details. And I remember when Lily was passed out in the loos... that was no coincidence. And I took your map when Sirius invited me into the dorms and did some research about it-"

"Hold it! You were in the boys dorms alone with Sirius? And you stole the map?"

"Yes and yes. Now let me continue before I hex you. Now anyway, that stall leads down to the Shreiking Shack as well as the path under that tree. And My dimwitted friends may not have notices, but Cris has been missing over a month. And there is no way she is shagging Josh 24-7 for that long."

"Oh snap! Peter has been gone a while too!"

"Yeah you dimwit. Two people missing from about the same time on, extra people in the Shreiking Shack, its too particular to be a coincidence."

"Wow, I am impressed. Who knew you were so logical?"

"Well I always have been but I hide it well. So the point is, we have to go in the shreiking Shack. I KNOW that Cris and that kid Peter are in there. I have this weird ESPN instinct...."

"You mean ESP?"

"Don't kill me with the details. So here's The Plan, we hop the fence and go on in there!"

"Can't we think of something a little less... barbaric? Possibly better planned?" asked James.

"Alright Head Boy, show me what ya got."

"Well we will need numbers, and out wands. They might help in case... in case we need them."

"Good point, so I will round up Sirius and Lily and... right.. they won't want to come near you, will they? " said Veronica.

"Well we need them, so I guess the Plan is off till further notice." said James.

"So turn yourself from and asshole to a not-asshole, and soon. That settles that. Now what do we do in the mean time?" she asked.

"Um... get more ice cream." said James.

"Your treat." smiled Veronica as they walked back down the hill.

Back to the castle again, Lily and Devonny were sitting in the same spot as they were hours before, gazes fixated at the Television screen.

"Hullo." said Adele as she waled into the dorms and plopped down on the bed.

"Hurry up, Caitlyn's Way is coming on. Ah! I love TV!" cheered Devonny.

"Caitlyn's Way... wasn't that a show about a girl who went from City Druggie to Redneck, but it got cancelled because it sucked and nobody watched it?" asked Adele.

"Yeah, but her brother is hot." said Devonny. "Woot, holler to Griffin." Adele conjured some popcorn.

"So where is Tori?" asked Lily.

"I dunno... she went off to the bathroom. I guess she will be back later." shrugged Adele.

"Whatever. Where is Vee... practice ended a long time ago, didn't it?" asked Devonny.

"Probably headed off to dinner. Let's go follow in her footsteps." said Adele as she hoisted herself up.

"Coming Lils?" Devonny asked as they headed out the door.

"Sure.." said Lily. "In a sec. I have to change into some different and less revealing clothes.."

"Just don't turn into a prude!" yelled Dev as she and Adele trooped down the stairs, to see none other than Remus and Veronica sitting on the couch watching James and Sirius talk in what seemed to be a very interesting conversation.

"Come join the party." cheered Veronica as the girls plopped down in some armchairs.

"Man.. how could you do that? To my girlfriend? We made a brother's pact and everything." Sirius asked James, oblivious to the crowd of listening people.

"You tell him!" cheered Veronica.

"I-I don't know, I was all caught up in the moment... but what do I have to do to get forgiveness?" asked James.

"Make him do 150 sit-ups hanging from a bar while wearing a bikini!" yelled Veronica. "Wait... do we really want to see that?"

"Well... I guess I can forgive you if you do all my homework this year." said Sirius.

"I do all of your homework already." said James.

"Ok, well I guess I forgive you then." smiled Sirius as he and James shook hands.

Just then. Lily walked down the stairs. She saw James and thought about going back up, but she had to talk to him.

"Lily.." spoke James softly.

"Nice to make up. but I have to go.. and.. yeah." said Sirius as he got up. He was followed by Remus, Devonny and Adele, but Veronica stayed. "Veronica, come on."

"I can't, I wanna see the sentimental conversation!"

"Veronica, I will do your homework since I no longer have to do mine"' said Sirius.

"Sweet! Later, Lily and James." said Veronica as she smiled and walked out.

James and Lily stood in absolute silence, both waiting for the other to make a move.

"I'm sorry." said James softly. "I should have respected you. But I didn't. And it was stupid." said James while moving forward and taking Lily's hands in his.

"Well.." said Lily.

"Can you forgive me?" he asked while looking deep into her eyes.

Lily looked back at his eyes, so caring and innocent. But she had made a decision, and there was no changing her mind now.

"James." she said, faltering slightly while trying to find the right words.
