Hello my FanFiction fans!!! hehe I'm super sorry about the really really
long wait for an update!! I was on a break from FF.net for a while.
Hopefully I will be back in full force! I had to re-read this whole story,
and I don't remember what grade they were supposed to be in! If anybody has
any clue, please tell me! I know this sounds really pitiful. well, it is
really pitiful, but I need your help! But I'm pretty sure they're in their
sixth year. Anyways, on with the show!

After the dance with Remus, Lily walked over to her friends who seemed to be dieing with delight and trying desperately to keep their squeals from leaving their mouths. Unfortunately, they were unable to hold it in any longer and started jumping up and down and gibbering on about "how romantic" Lily had looked kissing Remus. On the other side of the room, Remus was not getting such a warm welcome.

Remus walked over to where the rest of the Marauders were sitting, earning some smiles and some glares.
"Well done, Mooney! I had no idea you were going after Evans!" said Sirius, trying to lighten up the mood as James gave Remus looks that would kill any normal person.
"Yes, good job, mate!" said Peter, following Sirius' lead.
"Heh, thanks." Remus replied with a nervous laugh.
Sirius and Peter looked at James expectantly, who started to examine his fingernails.
"OW!" exclaimed James as Sirius kicked him underneath the table.
Remus sat down and looked at James. "Look Prongs, I'm really sorry. Its just that. well, I don't know, but-"
"Oh you knew perfectly well, Remus" interrupted James. Remus winced at being called his real name; the Marauders only used nicknames when around each other. " I've seen the way you stare at her, the way your always watching her walk away. You knew I liked her! You knew I'd been trying to get her to like me since FIRST YEAR! I thought you would be more polite then to just go and take her like that!"
"Well I'm sorry that I can't control my feelings, James! I'll think about you the next time I fall in love, and make sure that you haven't already 'taken her!'" Remus replied. Sirius and Peter stared in disbelief at Remus' explosion; he never acted this way. He was calm, cool, Remus. James said nothing, just glared at Remus for a moment, then stalked off, flinging the doors to the Great Hall open, attracting the attention of many of the students.
Remus sighed and looked up at his remaining friends. They gave him comforting looks, and finally Sirius spoke up.
"Look, Mooney, you did the right thing. You followed your instincts. Now go ask your girl for another dance!"
Remus smiled and stood up. He walked over to where Lily and her friends were having a conversation, filled with giggles and gasps.
"Er, excuse me, but I was wondering if I could have this dance?" he said, and immediately the girls stopped talking.
"It would be a pleasure," said Lily. Remus bent down and kissed her hand. "The pleasure is all mine," he said, his breath tickling her hand slightly.
They walked out onto the dance floor and began dancing to and fro, Lily's head resting gently on his shoulder.
Lily raised her head. "What was that argument you and James had about?" Lily asked, although her and her friends had been discussing it, and she had a guess as to what the answer would be.
"You." Remus stated simply.
She had been right.
"Oh," said Lily, "I see."
"It was nothing," said Remus, laying her head into his shoulder once more.
So Lily thought nothing more of it.
*
Lily and Remus were inseparable the whole rest of the night, and when it was time for everyone to go to bed, he walked her back to the Common Room. They stood at the bottom of the stairs for a moment, not wanting to go their separate ways.
"Lily?"
"Yes?"
"Umm. I was just wondering. its ok if you don't want to, but. I was just wondering if maybe you would be my girlfriend." said Remus, ready for the impact of a no.
"Of course, Remus!" Lily said, and soon nailed a very surprised Remus with a very long kiss.
