Ourlitlesecret7: It isn't really a mutual hate thing, it's more because they're friends and Skye never really thought about Remus that way

"Hi there, Jamesie!" said Anita, batting her eyelashes. "Err…its James" said James, looking at her in disbelief. And I thought Morgana was stupid, he thought. "Sorry, Jamie!" she gasped. James looked at Sirius, bewildered. "Padfoot, can I talk to you for a second…privately?"

"Sure" said Sirius, looking puzzled as James dragged him out of the common room. "What's up, Prongs?"

James rolled his eyes. "What do you mean, what's up?" he yelled, "SHE CALLED ME JAMESIE! NOONE'SCALLED ME JAMESIE SINCE I WAS ABOUT THREE!"

Sirius looked as though he was trying very hard not to laugh. "Calm down…Jamesie" he said, grinning. "You want this to work, don't you?"

"DON'T CALL ME JAMESIE!"

"Okay, okay… blimey, some people are so touchy."

James took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Sorry, Padfoot," he said, rumpling his hair absentmindedly. "But she's so annoying!"

Sirius snorted. "Yeah, well, just be glad she's not your cousin."

James kicked a statue angrily (The statue attempted to kick him back, but he jumped out of the way just in time) "If only we knew who that someone else was-I'd knock the stuffing out of him."

Sirius paused. "Maybe it's Frank?" he said thoughtfully.

James shuddered, "What in the name of Merlin would Lily see in that pompous, puffed-up pretty-boy?" he said angrily. "Don't you remember what he did to her last term?"

"Yeah, you're right"

"Okay," said James, resisting the urge to kick the statue again. "Well, let's get back inside. I want Lily back and if that means putting up with your airhead of a cousin, then so be it!"

"That's the spirit…Jamesie." Sirius said, grinning evilly.

This time, James just rolled his eyes and muttered obscenities under his breath.

"Let's just get this over with quickly," James said, grimacing, as he and Sirius walked back into the common room

"Ready?" said Sirius, as he scrutinised all of the portraits to make sure none of them were looking. "I'll go through the plan one more time- you two snog like mad until Lily shows up, Lily sees you, gets jealous and dumps that other git, and everyone's happy- except that other git, of course. Any questions?"

"Yeah," said James nervously, glancing at Anita, who was applying a very thick coat of lipstick. James fervently hoped it wasn't long-lasting lipstick. "Can I have a stunt double?"

Sirius rolled his eyes exasperatedly, "Seriously, Prongs" he said reassuringly "I can't believe you're actually turning down a kiss from the best kisser at Hogwarts-apart from us, of course."

James blinked. "Um…how do you know your cousin's the best kisser at Hogwarts?"

Sirius shrugged. "She's got quite a reputation" he said, "Actually; I'm surprised you haven't heard of her before…well, actually, I'm not. You have been obsessing over Lily for the past six years."

"I have not been obsessing over Lily!" James retorted.

"Have so!"

"Have not!"

"Have so!"

"Have not!"

"Have so!"

"Have not!"

"Have so!"

"Right, then" said Sirius, "I'd better go hide, Lily should be here any minute now."

James looked at him pleadingly, "You don't have to leave now!" He said desperately, using his best puppy-dog face. Unfortunately, it didn't work.

Sirius grinned evilly, "You're on your own, mate" he said gleefully. "Come on, she's not that bad-looking!"

James grinned "You've got a point there, Padfoot" he said. True, Anita was incredibly annoying, but she was also incredibly pretty…not to mention well-endowed. James smirked. This wasn't going to be so bad after all.

Meanwhile, Sirius was watching James from under the Invisibility Cloak. He watched as Anita drew closer to James, who, surprisingly enough didn't look so nervous about the prospect of having to kiss Anita anymore.

Anita moved closer and closer to James, wrapping her arms around his neck and pouting seductively. James looked a little surprised at first but he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her .

Sirius looked on in amusement as Anita ran her fingers through James' hair. Strangely enough, James didn't seem to be raising any objections.

"Hurry up, Lily!" yelled Morgana. "I'd like to get to the library sometime this decade, if that's alright with you!"

"Yeah, Lily, we don't have all day!" Skye said.

Sirius grinned. The plan was working perfectly.

"Since when have you two been so eager to get to the library?" muttered Lily.

Morgana and Skye ran past James and Anita, and into the library. "Wait for me!" yelled Lily from behind. She rounded the corner and bumped into two people kissing.

" I'm so sorry, Anita!" she exclaimed as Anita narrowed her eyes at Lily.

"Watch where you're going next time," Anita snapped angrily.

"I didn't mean to hit you two!" Lily answered indignantly, "It was an acci…"

Lily's voice trailed off as she turned and saw James

"James?" she said in a strangled whisper as she took a faltering step toward him. Her bottom lip trembled. She suddenly whirled round the other way and fled. Morgana and Skye, who had been watching from behind the library door, immediately ran after Lily to comfort her.

Sirius , who had been watching with interest from under the Invisibility Cloak, followed them quickly.

James and Anita were left behind in the corridor.

"Now, where were we, Jason?" purred Anita.

" We're finished for now, Anita" replied James glumly, not bothering to correct her. Kissing Anita hadn't been so bad, but he couldn't bear to see Lily cry.. He tried desperately to resist the urge to run after Morgana and Skye, and possibly Sirius, wherever they were going, and hold Lily in his arms again, and tell her everything would be all right.

If I could only hold you now

Make the pain just go away

Can't stop the tears from running down my face…help

All I know is I'm lost without you, I'm not gonna lie

How am I gonna be strong without you, I need you by my side

If we ever say we'll never be together and we end it with goodbye

Don't know what I'd do, I'm lost without you

Lily's heart was bursting with jealousy. There was no point in trying to stop the steady flow of tears rolling down her cheeks, so she just headed for the girls' toilets and hoped she didn't meet anyone on the way.

Lily's tears came down faster. She ran as fast as she could, her eyes blinded by tears, and walked straight into a very startled Remus.

"Sorry," said Lily in a choked voice.

Remus realized then that it was Lily. She pushed him aside rather roughly and raced on, praying that she wouldn't meet anyone else.

A moment later, Morgana and Skye came round the corner looking out of breath.

"Why didn't you stop her, you prat?" yelled Skye exasperatedly.

"Was that part of the plan?" asked Remus blankly.

Morgana rolled her eyes.

"Come on, Skye!" she said.

They hurried on and Sirius went after them, unseen and out of breath.

Lily flung the toilet door open. She ran into a cubicle, locked the door behind her, sat down and wept her heart out. She had only been there a few moments when she heard a knock on the door.

"Lily?" said Morgana's voice, "Are you OK? Lily?"

"Go away!" Lily sobbed, "Leave me alone!"

Skye and Morgana looked at each other. Morgana signalled silently to Skye. Skye took a deep breath and whispered " Alohomora!" Morgana eagerly pushed the door open and went over to Lily's side and gave her a hug. Skye (and Sirius) went in as well.

"W-What on earth w-was he d-doing with th-that…that… thing?!" sobbed Lily.

"I can't believe he would do that!" she exclaimed. "I mean, I only broke up with him yesterday!"

When Lily had calmed down, they unlocked the door and Lily washed her face.

"I just don't know what he sees in her" said Lily angrily. " I mean, the only thing lower than her IQ is her neckline!" Morgana gave a snort which sounded very much like laughter.

"I'm serious, have you seen the length of her skirt?" exclaimed Lily.

"No you're not," said Sirius' disembodied voice. All three girls screamed.

"I'm Sirius!" he said dramatically, and flung off the invisibility cloak. This time, only Lily and Skye screamed. Morgana had fainted. Sirius quickly caught her before she hit the ground.

"What are you doing here?" Skye asked indignantly as Sirius gently lowered Morgana to the floor.

"Yeah!" said Lily irritably, "This is a girls' toilet, in case you haven't noticed!"

"Is Morgana alright?" asked Skye.

"She doesn't seem to be breathing," said Sirius, looking concerned.

"Is her heart still beating?" asked Lily.

Sirius put his hands on her chest, feeling around for her pulse.

"It's in her wrist, you idiot!" said Skye, rolling her eyes.

" I knew that" replied Sirius, grinning sheepishly.

"I think she needs mouth-to-mouth," suggested Lily. She and Skye looked at Sirius expectantly.

"Okay then," said Sirius rolling up his sleeves gleefully, "I hope this works."

As he bent over Morgana, her eyelids fluttered open. His eyes, however, were closed so he didn't realize that she was conscious. She almost screamed again ,but realized that it was Sirius, so she wrapped her arms round his neck and pulled him towards her . Sirius nearly fainted when he realised Morgana was kissing him back, but he recovered and pulled the Invisibility Cloak over the two of them.

Skye realized that Morgana was all right, and giggled helplessly . Suddenly, Lily started crying again.

" What's wrong, Lily?" said Skye. " Sirius and Morgana aren't that disgusting!"

"Hey!"

"I'm joking, you muffin. Get back under the Cloak."

" Gladly."

Skye pretended to vomit, then turned to Lily. "What were you going to say?"

Lily dabbed at her eyes. "W-well… she said. "It's j-just that… James k-kissed me under the C-Cloak once!" . And then she burst into tears all over again. Skye smiled to herself. This was a lot easier than she had expected it to be. " Look, Lily" she said patiently, " If you really love James that much, why don't you dump that other git and get back with James?"

"I can't" said Lily, splashing cold water on her face.

Skye's jaw dropped. "You can't?" she yelled. "What do you mean, you can't?"

Lily sighed. " I don't have much of a choice now, do I ?" she said sadly. " I mean, he's already found himself a girlfriend, so there's no point in sitting around and moping- All I can say is, I really hope this secret admirer of mine has manageable hair…um, Skye? Do you realise you're turning blue?"
