A/N: Well thanks for all the reviews I was really happy about them because usually we don't get very many readers. But like a lot of people say, beggars can't be choosers…. and I have one thing to say about that…just watch me! HAHAHAHA… sorry I am so bored and I just want to get to type…but I guess what I'm doing now is considered as typing, I am such a dork!

Chapter 8:

Girls

"Okay Madison, yes I know he was enjoying it, just stop freaking out about it. Just go take a shower and pray to God that the slime with go away." Lily said getting annoyed as they walked through the portrait hole.

Madison ran up their dorm stairs still screaming about Snape being a git. Lily sat down on a couch and closed her eyes for a moments peace, which was of course disturbed by shouts coming from outside the portrait hole, she quickly ran up to her dorm. The shower ran for at least an hour and Lily was tired of waiting; she quickly went downstairs with a book. James andSirus were quietly talking with Remus, apparently telling him everything.

After about 15 minutes, Madison finally came down stairs.Sirius went up to his dorm, closely followed by James. "So did you, well you know?" Remus asked Madison, she held her breath as to not scream, mainly from the look Lily was shooting at her.

"Yes, and to my distaste, he liked it. It was just a joke, only to make Sirius mad." She placed a hand up to her eyebrow, and closed her eyes and after a minute opened them again.

"Uh oh, um Maddy sorry to tell you this but um, you still have a bunch of slime on your shoulder, right there." Lily smirked as Madison screamed in terror and ran up the stairs, and into the shower. "Oh stupid Lily, I knew that would happen." Lily said talking to herself, she laughed.

"So how do you know about the Snape incident?" Lily cocked an eyebrow.

"Oh, um James," she quickly looked at her feet a little hurt by the mentioning of his name. Remus must have noticed, "andSirius told me about everything."

"I kinda thought they would," Lily kept her gaze on the floor, "Is James mad at me?" asked Lily, she was mentally slapping herself for asking, she already knew the answer.

"Well yeah. Saying that you loved one of his friends like that, I think it really hurt him, but he'll be okay." Remus smiled; she looked up and he winked reassuringly.

(A/N: This next part is kinda confusing, I got confused while reading it, and I wrote it…)

James soon came downstairs, his arms full of his books, with a small side-glance at Lily, he walked over to a couch and slammed his bookson a table; the sound made her jump. She got up and ran to her dorm, she slammed the door shut.

"Madison hurry up in there!" Lily shouted pounding on the bathroom door.

"You try hugging Snape!" Madison shouted back.

Lily sighed frustrated and jumped onto her bed, and buried her face in her pillow. Slowly she drifted off to a light sleep. Another loud slam ofbooks onto a table from downstairs suddenly woke her. She noticed that the shower still contained Madison. Lily took her wand and pointed it at herself, her hair was now dry, and her makeup was clean.

She picked up her homework and made her way to the door, then the bathroom door opened. "Showers free now." she looked at Lily.

"Never mind, I don't need it now." Lily turned towards her. "Oh, you still have some grease in your hair." Madison shot her a disbelieving look.

"Nice try Lily. Oh and if you're going anywhere, I suggest that you change your clothes, you're still sopping wet." With that, Lily changed into clean clothes. She grabbed her robe (not bathrobe) and herbooks and walked down the stairs, Madison following closely behind her. Lily found a couch by the fire; she sat down, slamming herbooks on the ground. She pulled her legs onto the couch, her Hogwarts robe covering them. She placed a book on her stomach and propped it against her legs. She put a piece of parchment on top of it; she began to write an essay.

Madison walked over to a corner by the fire. Another couch, much like the one Lily was at, she too set her books down roughly. She lay on her stomach on the floor beside her books.

"No James, you got that answer wrong. It's this one right here." Remus pointed to a book. "Maybe if you paid attention, then you might actually get this finished.Sirus don't comment, I meant you too." Remus lectured with a smile.

"Shut up Remus, no one is in the mood right now." James said annoyed.

"Yeah we've all got other things or people on our minds right now." Sirius said loudly, shooting a glance at Madison.

Madison looked up at him and glared back. "This is so stupid!" Madison muttered louder than normal; she looked at Lily who looked back and shook her head and glared at the boys.

"Maddy, do you wanna help me up stairs really quick, I need to find a book." Lily called to Madison who nodded and they both stood leaving their stuff where it was and walked up to the girls' dorm.Sirius looked at James who slumped down further in his chair and buried his face in his hands.

"Prongs, do you think Madison really does like Snape?" Remus snickered quietly and turned around to hide his smile.

"I dunno, if not she is really good at acting cause it takes a lot for me to even pretend to be civil around Evans." James said disgustedly.

(I hope the confusion is somewhat over…)

Sirius looked down miserably at his paper that he had doodled on; it had Madison andSirius' names on a cross with roses and ribbons binding them together. He leaned over to look at James' page who had been drawing too and saw James and Lily's name on the side of a snitch. Just then Lily and Madison stepped down off the girls' staircase.

"I think I can answer your question Sirius," Madison said as she stepped into the middle of the room timidly.

Sirius stood up immediately, slammed his book shut and was on the first step when he felt her hand slip around his wrist. He turned back to her his eyebrows furrowed. "Come on, let go!" he muttered pulling on his arm. She grinned and tightened her grip. He could see there was no way he'd get away without hurting her so he let himself be led back to the couch. She sat down but he remained standing.

"Sirius please sit down." She said. The whole time Lily and James stared amused but glanced at each other and frowned.Sirius stood there and crossed his arms; Madison stood up looked atSirius and said " Sorry." before pushing him down on the couch.

They sat there for a few minutes looking everywhere but at each other. Lily and James were still glaring at each other, James turned away and shuffled his papers and began working again.

Lily checked her watch; it was about time for lunch. She slowly walked over to James. "Can I sit down?" she asked walking over to his table. James pushed his book to the floor then looked back at his paper.

"Moony, could you help me with this question?" James asked Remus, who had been reading a book in the corner farthest from the group. Remus got up and began walking across the room.

"Oh James, the answers right there." Said Lily pointing at the sentence. James bent down closer to the book and said, "Never mind, I found the answer." Lily smiled and stared at James.

James felt her gaze and turned to her uncomfortably. "Can I help you?" he said turning over hisbooks and shutting them.

"I'm really sorry about earlier," she said leaning closer to help him put away his books. He stared at her as he went to grab his quill; he missed and grabbed her hand. She just blushed and smiled. James pulled his hand away, with the quill and shoved it in his bag.

"Err…I guess." He said standing up with her and walking to the portrait hole. "Sirius, mate, I'm gonna go talk with Ev-Lily." James mumbled,Sirius slumped down in the couch next to Madison. Remus got up out of the corner too, "I'm going to go find Belle, see you two at lunch?" he asked looking fromSirius to Madison.

They both shook their heads at the same time and mumbled, "I'm not hungry." Remus left thinking he didn't want to be around when Madison and Sirius's tempers heated up.

Sirius looked at Madison who looked away and blushed.Sirius kicked his feet up onto the table in front of him and sighed; Madison looked back at him trying to think of what to say.

"Sirius I was only joking earlier about Snape." Madison said, "and he knew we were joking, I think." She said as an after thought. Sirius didn't say anything.

"Okay I really am sorry," she said getting upset, "it's not like I enjoyed it or something." She gagged.

"Well that's what it looked like." He huffed.

"How could you possibly think that I would ever even think about liking that ugly, arrogant, ignorant, greasy slime ball!" she said, he voice rising, " I just told you the other day that I hate his slimy guts."Sirius sat quiet for a moment then said turning to look at her, "So you don't like him then?"

She smiled and said, "Hell no, I hate him with a…passion." She ended darkly.

"So who's name were you writing?" he questioned suspiciously cocking an eyebrow at her.

She blushed, "Well, if you don't know, then I'm not telling you." She answered slyly. They joked around for an hour or two then started on some homework.

Meanwhile, once Lily and James stepped out of the portrait hole, Lily suggested they head for the Great Hall.

"So Lily do you like him or not?" James questioned, as they headed down the stairs. Lily blushed terribly but said "Isn't it obvious that if I liked him that much I would have just wrote Alex!" James thought for a moment then agreed.

"Well then why did you say you liked him if you didn't" he asked confused. Lily didn't answer, just sped up. "Come on Lils what were you really writing?" Lily stopped and turned to him looking annoyed.

"James you should know, it's not hard to figure out. But if you don't know yet, I'm not gonna tell you." She said broadly. Then she turned and walked leaving James there confused for a minute. He quickly followed. So James and Lily went to lunch then walked around the school talking and joking.

Remus and Belle stayed in the library for an hour or two then went walking around the school.

Peter and Anne had left early that morning and no one had seen them since.

Sirius and Madison were working on homework.Sirius had just scared a few first years out of the common room by threatening to transform them into slugs. Madison laughed asSirius sat down again and picked up his potions essay. "Finished!" Madison sighed setting down her "Unfogging the Future" book.Sirius looked at the book and smiled.

"So are you a true seer?" he asked picking up the book and reading the title. Madison smiled. "I doubt it, the professor seems to think so, but I don't think I've ever made a real prediction." She sighed and closed her eyes.

"What are you working on now?" he asked leaning back on the couch beside her.

"Palmistry." She muttered opening her eyes and rolling them into the back of her head. She checked her watch; it was about a half hour before Dinner. SuddenlySirius reached out and grabbed her book and flipped through the pages. He turned her hand over and leaned into it, to see it better.

"Okay it says here that that line means you're an alcoholic." He screwed up his face. Madison thought this was interesting and leaned in to get a better look.

Sirius stared flipping pages again and thought to himself, "How about I make this a little more interesting?" an evil grin spread across his face as he thought this.

"Oh and this line here means there's a love in your life, or there will be." He said this while dragging his index finger along the line of her palm; Madison looked up at him blushing.

"Hmm…and I think that means he'll err…have raven black hair, and dark brown puppydog eyes…"Sirius said trying not to smile. Madison was starting to get the idea that he was making this up.

"Really?" she said raising her eyebrows at him.

"Oh yeah, and plainly he's your age, and luckily he's in Gryffindor." He said lightly pulling her hand closer. Madison leaned in so she was inches away from his face.Sirius looked up at her and grinned, she smiled back. They leaned in, and for a second or two, she hesitated but then pressed her lips against his.Sirius had just put his hands on her waist, when the portrait hole opened and Remus and James stepped through.

Remus looked at them both, "Sirius what are you doing?" almost shouting. A minute later Belle walked in too.

"Madison!" she shrieked. Madison grabbed Sirius' hands and set them on his knees. "This might be a good time for you to let me go." She said urgently. She stood up and smoothed out her skirt.

"Madison, go to your room!" Belle shouted pointing her finger at the girls stairs.
