A Nice Little Chat
"So Lily how's life?" Remus asked Lily. They were making their rounds and it was a rather silent night. They did spot Halo and Sirius, but that was it.
"Ah, not bad. Pretty boring really." Lily responded. "How's yours?" She said politely.
"James and Sirius driving me crazy a little, but there is nothing new about that." Remus said. Lily felt a shiver go down her spine when she heard James' name. She just couldn't understand why this was happening to her. What did she ever do?
"Yeah, they seem to drive everyone crazy." Lily said remembering this morning. "Can ask you something Remus?" Lily asked after thinking it through.
"Sure, though James really likes you and that's why he's ask you out, no other reason." Remus said knowing Lily's question.
Lily looked astonished at his answer before she even asked it. Now she went into deep thought. James really liked her. That was all she needed to know. No, no it wasn't all she needed to know.
"You should go out with him." Remus said, answering her next question. Then James would shut up about her. No, no he wouldn't. Remus thought.
"How can I trust him though?" Lily asked before she could stop herself. She needed answers, and these were things the Halo and Natalie couldn't help her with.
"I guess you have to trust your heart, but with the way James talks about you, you will never have anything to worry about." Remus said. Damn James would so owe him.
Lily thought about this for a second. The way James talks about her. What did that mean? Lily didn't get it. "James never talks about me." Lily said before she could stop herself. She didn't know if she really wanted to know that answer.
"Not when you're around, well in ear shot at least. He never shuts up about you. You should hear him. I swear Sirius and me have the same conversation with James at least three times a day. They're about you. There are two. One is when he rants and raves about how you wont go out with him. Then we tell him you don't want a one night stand, he says your not that your… yeah I won't finish that sentence. The other one is where Sirius and I try and tell him to forget about you. He says no. And goes back into reasons why." Remus said in a monotone voice.
"Wow, I never knew he liked having conversations about me. Seriously." Lily said with an awed expression. She had to think about all this now. Maybe the girls were right. "I can't give him a chance though." Lily said without thinking. She seemed to have a bad habit of doing it tonight.
"Why?" Remus asked curiously.
"I can't have my heart broken. That's what will happen, I can't let it." Lily told Remus. "Anyway, enough about my love life. How about yours?" She was dying to know.
"What do you mean? I don't have a love life." Remus said in a monotone voice.
"Liar. It's because you like Natalie or Halo." Lily said in a knowing voice.
"How'd you know?" Remus asked before he could stop himself.
"Because I'm Lily Marie Evans! I know stuff!" Lily said with a happy smile. "So which one?"
"Well, I like Natalie… But I think she has a thing for Sirius, since they kissed or whatever last year, but Sirius has a thing for Halo. Yeah. It's a mess." Remus said.
"Tip, if you like Natalie, don't act like you do, and tell Sirius to. It'll make her want you more. Further away, and she can't stand when guys badger her." Lily told him knowingly.
"Well that would explain why she's so hooked on Sirius." Remus said offhandedly.
"Yeah, but he more of pissed her off. Just play it cool when she's around. Pretend to ignore her, but throw her looks when she's not looking. She'll pick up on. Trust me." Lily told him. Remus smiled.
"What would I do without you?" Remus said with a smile. His stormy gray eyes were twinkling. Lily loved seeing her friends happy. It was one of her favorite things.
"I don't know, but please do me a favor. Tell James if he waits, and stops asking me out, then there is a lot better of a possibility that I'll go out with him." Lily told Remus in a whisper even though no one was around.
"He won't believe me, but I will." Remus said with a smile. James was just as stubborn as Lily.
"Yeah, you're probably right. I just, I don't know, I've got to figure it out. I can't say yes, but I can't say no. Him asking me out would drive me to insanity. I'll probably hex him to oblivion, then kiss him." Lily pondered aloud, smiling at the idea of this.
Hexing James, kissing him. What could be more fun? Well, making out with Sirius in front of James would, but… Oh yes, I could do that! Lily thought to herself. This could be a lot of fun.
"Lily that mischievous smile is one I don't want to see on such an intelligent girls face. It makes me worry that you are planning something crazy." Remus said. Lily's mischievous smile broadened. "You are aren't you?" He asked watching her.
"No, never, not me, I'm innocent." Lily said in a mock innocent voice. She knew the smile wasn't real, so did Remus. They both laughed aloud at this.
"Lily, don't play innocent, it doesn't work for you." Remus told Lily when they finally stopped laughing.
"Hey!" Lily said in a mock hurt voice, but she still had a huge smile on her face.
"Lily, we both know its true. You are far from innocent. After all, you are madly in love with James." Lily went pale as a ghost; she never said that to Remus. She knew she didn't, how'd he know.
"What'd you say Remus?" Lily asked quietly.
"Nothing c'mon lets go. Our rounds are done." Remus said and pulled Lily away.
