"Remember when, we never needed each other
The best of friends like
Sister and Brother
We understood, we'd never be,
Alone

Those days are gone, and I want so much
The night is long and I need your touch
Don't know what to say
I never meant to feel this way
Don't want to be
Alone tonight

What can I do, to make it right
Falling so hard so fast this time
What did I say, what did you do?
How did I fall in love with you?"

Backstreet boys- "How did I fall in love with you?"

Chapter: The ones I love

"Lily" Sang Priscilla happily; walking into the Common Room. "I hear about your wonderful transfiguration." She looked around for the chair "Where is it?"

"It's in our dorm," Said Bri walking down the stairs "It is a beautiful chair though." She looked around "And if you haven't noticed, Prissy, Lily isn't here."

Priscilla hid a blush "I knew that." She looked at the black cloak Sabrina was wearing "Anyway, where are you headed off too? And where is Lily?"

Sabrina smiled "Drago's taking me on a trip to the Snow Cap Mountains." She pointed to them out the window and sighed happily "I'll be back later tonight"

Prissy giggled "Have fun! We'll be up waiting for you." She handed Bri a piece of paper "Tell Drago I said hi."

Sabrina nodded "Oh and Lily is at a Head's meeting." She walked out of the Common Room leaving Priscilla to walk over to the fire.

"What are you doing here all alone?" Asked a voice from the stairs. Priscilla turned around and smiled. "Hello Remus"

Remus walked over and sat in the armchair opposite of her. "Where is everyone?"

Prissy counted on her fingers "Lily's at a meeting, Bri went to the mountains with Drago and Arya is off somewhere; probably the Library." She looked up "Why?"

He thought for a moment "You guys never talk to us anymore," He grinned "I remember when we were so close, what year was that again?"

"First through fifth," She said smiling "But, then things between Lily and James got unbearable and we just stopped talking to each other."

Remus nodded "I remember when Sirius and Lily used to be great friends."

"Now they hardly talk" She reminded him; then looked away unsurely "Do you think their acting different?" She looked back "James and Lily that is."

Remus nodded and leaned back "He's trying and after that little incident in Transfiguration..." he trailed off

"I think Lily likes him," She said at once "She's always complaining about him," She smirked "And it seems like she enjoys it."

He laughed "We'll give them sometime. It's amusing to watch is though."

"Do you think we can hang out?" She asked nervously

Remus nodded "I'm pretty sure James, Sirius and Peter would-"

"Not them," She said blushing "Never mind"

Remus looked confused then caught on. He looked closely at her "I'd love too"

Prissy was about to say something when they heard two loud voices, arguing. The Common Room portrait hole opened and in came James and Lily.

"You want to bet?" Asked James loudly

"Sure" Yelled Lily

"Ok how much"

"1 gallon"

"How about 1,000,000,000,000,000,001 gallons" Said James triumphantly

Lily rolled her eyes "Sure let me go ask my parents if I can borrow that much money."

"Ok go ahead" Said James smiling

"You are crazy!" She said amazed

"No no no no no" He said shaking his head "It has to be your money"

"My money?" Asked Lily, just to piss him off.

"Yeah" Said James for the fifteenth time "Your money"

Lily paused "What are we betting on again?"

He shrugged "I have no idea, I thought you knew."

"And I thought you knew" She said shaking her head amusedly and walking up the Dormitory stairs. James watched her go, then ran over to the Common Room couch and jumped on it.

"What was that about?" Asked Priscilla amusedly

James looked at her and smiled "I have no idea."

Arya browsed the old books, wasting time. All of her work as completed and there was nothing left for her to do, but wait for something exciting to happen.

"Nothing like that will happen here," She mumbled

"Talking to yourself?" Asked Sirius Black walking around the corner. "That, my dear, is the first sign on insanity."

She continued looking at the books "What are you doing here, Black? I thought you hated the Library."

"Not when there's a pretty girl in it," He said charmingly

Arya shrugged, she didn't consider herself pretty. Her hips weren't exactly small. In fact the only thing she did like about herself was her eyes and hair, everything else was just plain. Priscilla was the beautiful one, Sabrina had a dark beauty, Lily was pretty and she was the odd one. That's why she and Lily got along so well, they were both in the same predicament; always outshined by Prissy and Bri.

"And I thought we were on a first name basis?" He asked "What happened?"

She looked away from the books and to him for the first time "What do you want Sirius? You hate the Library."

He wrung his hands nervously "I wanted you to come to Hogsmeade with me."

She snorted "Why? Am I your pick of the week? What happened to Melanie Chang?"

He waved her off "She got boring after a while."

"She was a sweet girl," Arya said airily, looking back at the books. "Smart too. I'll never understand why she agreed to date you." 'Not that your ugly,' She thought. Sirius was defiantly handsome. His black hair fell into his stunning gray eyes gracefully.

He stepped in front of her and the bookcase "Just one date, please?" He gave her his charming grin.

She smiled sweetly and pushed a strand of hair behind her ear. "No" She dropped the grin and walked away.

"But why not?" He asked chasing after her "Why won't you give me a chance?"

She glared at him and mimicked his whole speech "I swear I'll behave. I really like you. You're the only girl I've met that made me feel this way. I don't think I'll ever stop loving you."

Sirius gaped at her "You memorized that?"

"No Sirius," She said angrily "I've heard it so many times I can recite it word for word!" She closed her eyes "What do you want from me Sirius? I am nothing like all the other girls you've dated! I'm not drop-dead gorgeous, I don't waste time with makeup in the morning-"

He cut her off "That doesn't matter!"

"It does Sirius!" She said "You know nothing about me!" She began to walk away "Besides, how can you begin to like someone if you don't even know yourself?"

--

"He what?!" Asked Lily amazed "Sirius?"

"Yes I am serious," Said Arya grumpily and missing the point. "He wanted me to go to Hogsmeade with him."

Lily walked over to her bed and sat next to Arya who was lying down. "What did you say?"

"I said no" She said, as if it was the most obvious thing. "Do you really think I am going to fall for him?"

"But Arya," Began Lily "He likes you"

Arya gaped at Lily "I thought you of all people would me on my side! Not his!"

"Arya," Begged Lily "Just think about it, please?"

Arya sighed "Fine, but I wont be a very happy person this week if I have to think about him"

Lily smiled happily "See? Everything will work out just fine. You're just being grumpy."

Arya growled into her pillow, as Priscilla walked into the room falling onto her bed. Lily raised an eyebrow at Arya who shrugged.

"Everything going well?" Asked Arya

Prissy blushed "I have a date"

Lily grinned happily and demanded "Who?"

"Remus," She said smiling

Arya looked up "I never knew you liked Remus"

"I did," Said Lily evilly "Ever since 5th year she's liked him."

Prissy gaped "How did you know?"

"It was obvious," She stated matter-of-factly "Besides you make an adorable couple."

"So do you and James, but you don't hear me telling the whole school." She said grinning as the redhead blushed.

Arya got up "I might as well do something useful with my time."

Lily asked, temporally forgetting to kill Priscilla "Like what?"

"Tell James you like him" She sang walking out the door.

Lily froze "ARYA!" She ran after her "You better not!"

"Why?" She asked sweetly "If you know it's not true, which you claim it is, then you should have nothing to worry about. But, if it is true then...well you know." She winked and walked out.

(Late that night)

Lily walked through the halls, patrolling the corridors. She left as soon as Bri came back from her trip, glad to see her happy with Drago. 'They've been dating for sometime now,' she thought 'About two years.' She sighed and stopped to look out the window.

"Did Sabrina get back alright?" Asked a male voice from behind her.

She nodded and turned to face James. "She's fine; a little happy, but otherwise normal."

James nodded "Want to walk with me?"

She wanted to slap him, tell him that he was a jerk and storm off, but she couldn't. "I guess so"

"I'm sorry for last week," He said

"It's alright," She said awkwardly, "I shouldn't have yelled, it wasn't my business."

James shook his head "I have to be more responsible now." He looked down at his badge "I'm Head Boy after all."

Lily looked at him sadly "It's not that bad, is it? Working with the student's, planning dances, being respected, not to mention the Head's Common Room that we haven't checked out yet."

James quickly shook his head "It's not bad at all; I'm just worried that's all." He took a deep breathe "Before you leave, just hear me out, please?"

Lily nodded slowly and they continued their walk.

"This is our last year and looking back I've realized what a jerk I've been. I never meant to hurt you in anyway. When I was younger, I never knew what I had until it was gone. My father was murdered in our 5th year; he was killed by Death Eaters."

He looked away; blinking back tears "I never thought I would lose him. I always thought he would be there, practicing Quidditch with me, baking cookies for my mother..." He trailed off and remained quiet for sometime. "Then I came back to school, after his funeral and thought if this was what it's like to lose a loved one, I hope I never love again.

"But there was always you Lily. You always amazed me." He slightly smiled "That's why I annoyed you so much, I never wanted to get close to you in fear of the same thing happening again." A tear fell out of his eyes "Because if you hated me, I was safe from losing you," He looked at her "Because I would never have you."

Lily's eyes were filled with tears, but they didn't fall.

"I'm not asking you to forgive me for all I've done to you," He paused "What I am asking is...Will you give me another chance?"
