A/N: I was meant to update these chapters before I left but I didn't have enough time, as we were leaving at 4:30 in the morning. So I'm very sorry. But here it is anyway.

Chapter 14 - A Little Suprise

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any characters the belong to the book.

Three weeks had passed and Lily and James had accepted that nothing was ever going to happen between them. Lily hadn't said anything for four days when James decided to move onto a different girl.

Lily, getting James' hint moved onto a different guy too, his name was Marcus and he was blonde and had hazel eyes. He had no sense of humor and overall was pretty boring, some how, that was all Lily managed.

Emma was still dating Hamish and adoring him more each day. Sirius was still dating Kat. The group was getting sick of her hanging around all the time and it seemed like she had become a part of them, no one wanted to tell him though.

'Hey Lily, you want to come with me to talk to my sister?' Emma asked.

'Yeah, I haven't seen her in ages,' Lily said. It was a Sunday and everyone else was sleeping in.

The met Ellie on the oval a couple of minutes later. Ellie was Emma's oldest sister; she was Head Girl and was also the oldest in the family.

'What's up?' she asked.

'Nothing much,' they both said, looking at the ground.

'Ok, that was the first thing that was wrong, you should have told me something so it sounded like you just had a boring life and you were looking at the floor,' she pointed out.

'Ok, you got us both. We both have boy problems,' Emma confessed.

Ellie smiled and said, 'spill.'

'Ok, I "divorced" Sirius, and now I'm dating Hamish, but now I think I still have feeling so him,' Emma said.

Lily took a deep breath, 'and James has been so good to me lately and I was so ride to him. I couldn't tell him how I really felt and now we're both dating dreadful people.'

'Ok, the same thing applies to both of you,' Ellie said, 'you need to see how they feel.'

They nodded, 'first things first: Lily do you want to date James?'

Lily hesitated, 'yes, but he's dating someone else.'

'The someone else isn't the problem,' Ellie said, 'we all know he would give up anything to date you for a day.'

Lily laughed half-heartedly. 'I know, I really like him now, I think.'

'You have to tell him how you feel,' Ellie said urgently, 'it's the only way.'

Lily nodded.

'Ok, little sis. Do you think you have a future with this Hamish guy?'

'No,' she said truthfully, 'he depends on me too much.'

'Ok, good, at least you know. Next thing, do you know whether Sirius would be willing to come back?'

'I do!' Lily piped up, 'yes he would.'

Emma grinned, 'really?'

'Really, really.'

'Thanks Ellie, you really helped,' Lily said, looking at Emma, who looked slightly dazed and excited that he would actually like to get together again with her.

'Can you help with me with my problem now?' Ellie asked shyly. This was weird, because Ellie was usually a happy, bubbly weird person who always had something interesting to say.

They looked at each other and shrugged, 'yeah, sure.'

'I think I'm in love with Amos,' she said slowly. 'Last night he nearly said it to me, but he started to stutter and he ran away saying goodnight.'

'How is that a problem? That's great!' Emma said, 'be happy you're not single and you have someone that loves you!'

'You're right. Thanks guys see you around!' she said running off to catch up with some of her friends who had just passed by.

'Did you think that helped?' Emma asked Lily on their way up to the Gryffindor Common Room.

'Yeah! What about you?'

'Yes, but now's the hard part, we have to actually talk to them about "how we're feeling",' she laughed.

'To be honest I think that talk helped me move on from James rather than move "to" him. I think I'll just leave it now,' Lily said stepping into the Common Room.

'Are you sure, I mean, this isn't just because it's going to be hard to tell them, is it?' she asked.

'No, I just think I can do better than Marcus and James now,' Lily explained. Emma nodded, but really she was hoping that Lily would run to James and tell him what an idiot she had been for not being with him.

Lily and Isy caught up with Jess and Claudia again after lunch. They were sitting on a bench in the sun talking.

'Lily, do I have some gossip for you!' Jess said excitedly. But Lily wasn't concentrating on Jess; she was more focused on Claudia. She was tugging at Jess' jumper and giving her glares.

When Lily didn't answer Isy said, 'really? What is it?'

Jess took in a deep breath, glancing quickly at Claudia, 'Claud here, is dating James Potter!'
