Author's note:

Wow. It sure has been a long time since I updated this one eh? I've got a lot of you guys sending me angry e-mails. Now…that's not very nice. But I suppose it also wasn't too nice of me to write part of a story and never finish it. But I will, I promise. I've just been more centered on my other account, Twitch of Queenliness, and the stories on there…Sorry guys.

In any case,

Disclaimer: No. It doesn't belong to me. Or better yet, you sue me, I sue you. Kapieche? (sp?)

Okay. Here we go then.

Chapter Seven: Perspective.

Sighing, he got up from the table. Was it just him or were things really weird with his two best friends? And Lily, poor Lily. She seemed really out of it today as well. Shaking his head, the short, stumpy boy headed towards the common room, completely dumbfounded. Most thought him quite stupid, but he really just wasn't very observant.

But it didn't take a magnifying glass to spot the discomfort going on with Sirius...and Lily. There was less with James, but Peter had been able to detect a small glare of indecision as Sirius left the table.

Yeah, something was definitely up here. The only problem was, he didn't know what.

There was a triangle going on. Lily, Sirius, and James…Yeah. Something was definitely strange here.

And, however much he hated to admit it, he was going to snoop. Peter Pettigrew, the small, shy, nice one, was going to snoop on his best friends, and the single person who could even come close to being a 'Maraudette.' He was going to pry into their lives. He wouldn't like it, and he'd feel guilty, but he'd do it.

It wasn't fair how the other boys left him out of things sometimes. He knew they didn't mean to, but he was easy to overlook. So, to console himself, Peter told himself firmly that they had brought this upon themselves.

Yeah…keep thinking that and you'll be okay.

James frowned, creating bird's feet in between his eyes. Something had happened. Something was different. Something was wrong. And it included his best mate in some way. And his dearest Lily-flower.

But, stubborn as he was, he didn't want to think that anything could possibly be wrong. Not when everything had just fallen into place. Not when everything was finally starting to make sense. No, it couldn't be. He wouldn't let it be.

"I won't let there be something wrong!" he cried triumphantly in a whisper, slamming his fist on the table.

It was then that Remus was shaken out of his reverie.

"Something was definitely out-of-place just now." Remus commented.

Oh, good Remus, who always noticed things, even when he was at a disadvantage. Remus didn't wear glasses, but he may as well have, for he had a habit of seeing people far more clearly than they wanted to be seen. James looked at his friend, who had a thoughtful expression on his face. He had the distinct feeling that Remus knew more than he was saying, as always. Did that boy ever have the ability to reason!

James' faint smile turned to a frown when he heard his friends' words. "What do you mean?" he asked. "I mean…I could tell something was a little awkward or something, but Lily and I finally kissed. Of course she'll be feeling a bit odd." He smiled, nervously.

"Yeah, okay James." Remus said quietly. "I think I'm gonna go to the Library, kay?" he said as he stood. James nodded, deeply concerned now. Remus could tell something was wrong.

And if Remus thought something was up, then that something was probably soaring sky-high.

A/N: Okay, there it was. How'd I do for my first-time back? I bet my writing style has changed a bit, but that's to be expected. Yeah. In any case, I'm sorry I didn't post for so long, but here it is anyhow. I know it's short, and I'm sorry, but I'm really tired, seeing as it is WAY past my bedtime…
