Hello again! I know the last chappie was kinda weird but it's been a while, ya know? Hopefully this one will be much better, earning me many more reviews…

Ch.9: Very slutty

After James had left the Common Room Lily sat there, flabbergasted. She thought that this was surely the right thing to do. After all, Remus was being a bit of a prick lately. But her plan had failed utterly. Slowly, people began to filter into the room. Lily started to get frustrated. "Why does this kind of thing always happen to me?" she asked herself angrily. A little voice in the back of her head replied "James was only being a good friend, showing real loyalty. You were the one being a slut." Lily sighed and looked behind her. Remus was just entering the Common Room still looking very sleepy. She jumped up and ran over to him.

"Morning hun," she said, laying him with a big wet kiss.

"Good morning to you too" Remus replied, grinning. "What was all that about?"

"I know that things haven't been going that smoothly lately, but I'm ready to put that all behind us. What do you say?"

"As long as I get more kisses like that,"

James walked towards the kitchens, shrugging off the butterflies that were still flying around in his stomach. He felt slightly proud of himself that he had pushed away the girl of his dreams, although his body didn't feel quite the same way. Of course he felt a bit bad for Lily, too. I mean, she had been ready to give up Remus for him, even if it was a bit slutty. But the kitchens were the perfect place for him to go when he was feeling rotten; the house elves always made him laugh, and that Toby sure does make a mean treacle tart.

Sally and Candy stared at Lily. She was acting very strangely. Gone was the Lily who flinched every time her skin rubbed against Remus', who was always making up excuses as to why she couldn't go somewhere with Remus, who never, never showed PDA. Here, instead, was a new, sluttier Lily.

Candy grimaced as Lily licked Remus' finger clean. "Really, Lily, is that necessary?" she asked.

Lily looked at her and kissed Remus on the check before replying. "I suppose its time for Charms anyways. Bye Sugar."

As they walked out into the corridor Sally whispered loudly "Hello, Miss Virgin-no-more!"

Lily stopped abruptly. "What do you mean by that?"

"Yes, Lily dear, you made it that obvious."

"It couldn't have been that obvious if I didn't even notice!"

"Jesus, Lily, you mean you didn't?!"

"Of course not! I would've told you guys!"

"I swear every person in that lunch room thinks that you did."

"Was it really that bad?" Lily asked, smiling weakly.

Her two friends nodded their heads. She sighed and told them about the events of the morning.

"That was pretty darn slutty," Sally said when Lily was done with her story.

"But totally un-James like," added Candy.

"Tell me about it. I don't know, I was just trying to strike things back up with Remus, you know? That's why I was acting so weird this morning."

"And to make James jealous?" questioned Sally.

"No! Of course not! Well, maybe a teensy-weensy bit… But I really didn't mean to."

"We understand."

James walked into Charms and sat down beside Remus. "I see you got some serious action this morning."

"I'm guessing it wasn't as much as last night!" Sirius said, grinning widely.

"What?! No, no, no. That's not how it was. I don't know, that's just how she started acting this morning." Remus replied hastily.

"Slutty…. That's so hot!" Sirius exclaimed.

Remus rolled his eyes as Professor Flitwick began the lesson.

Lily said goodbye to her friends as she headed towards her dormitory. "I'll see you in the Great Hall in 10 minutes." She walked up the Great Staircase, took a left, a right, another left, her feet retracing the regular steps while her brain was on other things. Suddenly she felt a tight grip on her arm and she was pulled into a small closet.

"Who-" Lily began before a hand was put over her mouth.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" James voice whispered.

"I just-" Lily felt a bit wobbly at the knees. Since when did James' voice have that effect on her?

"Damnit Lily! Do you know what you are doing?! I mean, what's he supposed to think?! You rejecting him one day, and the next you're practically sucking his dick!"

It couldn't have been for long. A few weeks ago being this close to James would have made her sick to her stomach. Her heart began to beat faster.

"You can love up on him all you want, Evans, but don't do it like that again. You made yourself look like a slut. And you sure as hell didn't make him look good either."

His warm breath tickled her neck. She gulped up a big cloud of air and replied "I just don't know James. After this morning I-"

"This morning was nothing. Absolutely nothing. And it certainly shouldn't have had any effect on what you did today."

Oh if only he would touch her, she was sure he would understand how she was feeling.

"I just wanted to show him that I still liked him," she replied weakly.

James sighed loudly and leaned his head back against the wall. He closed his eyes tightly; he couldn't look at her. He was already overwhelmed by her without having to look at her. But it was for the best. For his friendship. He opened his eyes and pushed the door until he could see the hall. A tiny sliver of light leaked into the closet.

"Coast clear," he said, opening the door wider. Lily stumbled out.

"Remember what I said Evans." He lowered his voice and added softly "It really is for the best"

Oh, the drama! I decided I definitely like it when other people's chapters are long, so I decide to make mine long! I think that since I don't update that often, it should at least be worthwhile for you guys when I do! Anyways, I hope you liked it! Or, if you are more inclined to review when it sucks then, then I hope you think it sucks! Here's a little trivia for ya: How many times did I say slut in this chapter? Whoever answers correctly gets a special part in my next chappie! (Clues: No the chapter title doesn't count, but yes, words like "slutty" and "sluttier" do.)

A message to GlitterGreen: I didn't use 'nailed' once! HA!
