The Argument

A/N: okay I'm so sorry this chapter is very boring. Part of why it took me so long. The other reason is as I have mentioned I have trouble getting on the computer. Good news tough, I have the rest of this story written out it's now just a matter of typing it up. I know that sounds easy, but it's not I'm a very slow typist. I hope to have it finished by the third when I go back to school but I doubt it. After the third I won't have any free time at all until summer, so don't expect an update until then. Okay I know you guys just want me to get on with the story so I'll shut up.

Disclaimer: If I were the author of Harry Potter, I would never have anyone die and thus it would be horrible and no one would read it. In case you didn't pick up on it I don't own Harry Potter.

James POV

My trip to Diagon Alley with Lily was wonderful. I think we're actually going to start being friends. I know if we do become friends I'll be the happiest man alive. I love her so much I'll be happy just being friends. (A/N: famous last words)

I was on a high until we saw Kristen sitting on her bed trying not to cry. When she told us it was because of Sirius I was torn. On the one hand Kristen and I have always been really close and she had just been hurt. On the other hand Sirius is my best friend and I would have probably done the same thing. When Lily said she didn't want to fight I was shocked. I knew then what I had to do.

I arrived in Padfoot's living room where he was sitting just staring into space.

"Sirius, what is wrong with you! You can't hex Snape unless he hexes you first," I yelled.

"He did hex me first, Prongs! Remember, on the train," he yelled back.

"But Kristen didn't know that. And even if she did I still don't think she'd approve. You just can't do that. You have to be careful around the girls. Do you want them to hate you?"

"You know, James, you do the exact same thing, so I don't know why you're shouting at me."

"I'm shouting at you because Kristen's upset. You have to go talk to her. Now!"

There was a pause. I could tell Sirius was trying to calm himself down.

"Kristen's really upset?" he asked calmly.

"Yeah."

"Where is she?"

"At her house with Lily."

"Fine. I'll go talk to her."

We apparated to Kristen's house. Lily and I left almost immediately so Kristen and Sirius could talk.

When we arrived at my house Lily went to her room. She said she wanted to write some letters to her friends.

I went to my room to think. Was it possible that Lily and I were finally going to be friends? I hoped so. I didn't think too much about my row with Sirius because we were obviously going to forgive each other. We always do.

I was thinking about how great Lily is when I heard Sirius calling me. He was using the mirrors we usually use during detention.

"Prongs!"

"Hey, Padfoot."

"I'm sorry about earlier."

"No, I'm sorry. I overreacted."

"So we're okay?"

"Yeah, we're okay. So, what happened with Kristen?"

"We're good now, but we're not going to go out again."

"Oh well, that's too bad."

"I dunno. There are plenty of other girls out there. I have to go now. I have some work to do around the apartment. I just wanted to make sure everything was okay between us."

"See ya, mate."

"See ya."

Sirius's image disappeared so I set the mirror down. It was close to dinnertime. I went down to the kitchen to help my mum.

A/N: I'm having some trouble getting on the Internet and right now I have this horrible pain in my chest. Therefore I'm not sure how much I'll get done over the break but I'm going to try. Also, a note to anyone whose story I'm reading I am still reading it, I just don't have time to review anyone. Sometimes it's also that it just doesn't work, but keep it up. I'll start reviewing again when I get my computer back. Again sorry this chapter is so boring.

Praises: thank you to everyone who reviewed this story.

Hon Snowfire Browneyes: omg I haven't talked to you in soooooo long. And I have Chris news, too. I'll email the whole story to you. You're going to hate it. But you got to email me back. All you have to do is click the little reply button and tell me what's going on in your life. Okay so in answer to your question yes "flooed" is a term in Harry Potter's world (at least I think it is) but so is "apparated" and when you use them spell check freaks out. It says that the word is spelled wrong and I don't have a verb. Anyway email me soon. Thanks for the review.

Lilypad-7879: wow your story is sooo good update soon. I tried to review it, but it didn't work. I'm sorry about your dad. I hope he gets better. In answer to your question, I live in America in the stupidest state in the country. I hate my state. Anyway update your story soon. It's amazing. I can't wait to find out what happens next. Thanks

Krissygurl: Kristen is actually based off one of my best friends. She's a blast. Poor thing, though, after I was half way done writing this story I found out I was spelling her name wrong. She spells it Kristin. Thanks for the review.

The almighty and powerfulM: yes Sirius did have a moment of stupidity there but everything will turn out okay. That is until Voldemort kills Lily and James and Sirius is blamed for giving away their position. Trust me if I could change that I would. Oh well thank you for your review.

Mrs.ProfessorLupin: I'm glad you like my story so much. I'm sorry I took so long to update. Thanks.

Writergirl709: I'm glad you love my story. Thanks for your review.

Xo DaNiElLe 03 oX: I'm sorry I didn't review your story but I did read it and its great. Update SOON! I'm glad you like this story. Thank for your review.

orlandolover07: I'm glad you like my story. Thanks for your review. Btw Pirates of the Caribbean is my favorite movie (along with the Princess Bride).

Lily Christie: thank you for the extra long review and I'm glad you like it so much. Now to answer your questions; I'm not quite sure where the whole snitch thing came from. Did I say something about it in the shop or something? Anyway, if that's the case don't the still sell snitches? I mean they have to right? So, then James just stole it to be cool. Sirius is living in his Uncle's place. Remember Sirius's uncle died when Sirius was 17 and left him the place? Well, he's 17 here because I didn't want him in the house with Lily and James. Well, James is more confident, but lily has shaken his confidence just by her presence. Isn't that sweet? Lily's actually suppose to be a spoiled brat in the beginning and get better later on. I was doing that on purpose. I explained it earlier in one of my author's notes. You were right about the Alley thing. I can't spell. I'm sorry. No, I don't need any more ideas. This story is finally finished. All I have to do is type it up. Finally, the romance will start to happen very soon, just be patient. Thanks again.

DIFFEN-DOOFER: thanks for the encouragement and the review. I'm glad you like this story.

Lils-X: wait Lily does have blonde hair and James does have blue eyes in this thing. No, no, only kidding. I just don't want someone to flame me because I got it wrong. Thank you for your review and your input.
