LilyOh god…
She is going his way.
Oh shit.
That means Remus was right: if you respect a girl then
they'll come at you in flocks.
Well that's just great.
Now I owe Moony a galleon.
Damn.
I wanna hear this.
(james pov)
"Hello Lily."
"Hi"
Don't say anything stupid.
"Did you get my letter?"
Good James. Very Good. Very Civilised. Not prickish at
all."Why yes, in fact, I did."
Must restart brain. I'm stalling.
"Err…. What did you think of it?"
Did that sound impatient?
"Very eloquent."
Must resist asking…
"What do you think of my new philosophy?"
Wait does that sound like I think of girls as a
philosophy?
"I never knew that you listened to Remus when he
talked to you. But now I see that you even took
notes!"
Shit.
(peter pov)
Great.
Just bloody great.
All I do is walk in to the common room.
I see Lily smiling at James rather impishly.
Remus with his "I-hope-he-learned-a-lesson" face.
I see Sirius beaming like he just won a galleon.
I ask what I missed.
And what does dear old Prongsie do?
He breaks my nose!
Now I'm stuck in the hospital wing with our crazy
school nurse.
Just great.

"That's cruel, Evans, that's just cruel."
His words echo in my head.
Was I too mean?
My instinct says no but my conscience says yes.
Should I really give him a try?
Pearl and I are really well known as the most modest
girls at school. When my acquaintances ask me out I
say that I don't have time. That's true. Pearl says
the same thing. I am constantly studying. Studying and
writing and being presiding officer of Charms Club and
being secretary for Defence Against the Dark Arts Club
and all of my prefect duties…
Pearl has a type of asthma that magic can't cure. Yet
she is a brilliant quidditch player. Between practice
and treatment, being alternate presiding officer for
DADA Club, a recruiting officer for the Charms club,and being a straight outstanding student, she's
swamped. We could make time with motivation I suppose…

Score!
Lily just sealed her fate.
She will be forced to go out with me.
I asked her out again and instead of saying flat-out
no, she said that she'd go out with me when pigs flew,frogs croaked the ABC's, and Snivilus gets a bad grade
on a potion.
Remus noted that that's not much of an improvement.
I note that I can force those things to happen.
Lily said that Snape had to get a bad grade on a
potion.
She never said that it had to be his fault…
Excellent.
