CAPTER 5: THE CHAPTER LEADING UP TO THE CHAPTER WHERE SOMETHING HAPPENS BETWEEN TWO PEOPLE WHO AREN'T LILY AND JAMES!

Potions passed quickly. Next was Charms, which Lily had with Keila. Then was Lunch, Divination, and a free period, the dinner.

Lily walked towards the Charms corridor quickly. She had been the first one out of the room. She didn't want to see James. Sure, she liked him, but it was just a passing fancy. She wouldn't turn into one of those girls James would date for a week, snog, and then get over. She wouldn't be used by him. Never. Se couldn't believe she had kissed him back. It had felt so right. How could something that felt so right, be so wrong?

As Lily approached the Charms classroom, she saw Keila waiting for her.

"Hey Lily."

"Hi Keila."

"So, ready for a boring hour and a half of Charm?"

"Hey! I like Charms!" Lily exclaimed.

"Right, I forgot."

"OK, let's go."

For the next hour and a half, Lily learned about the wand movement and history of a charm that could show if someone was disguised or using a polyjuice potion, etc.

When Lily and Keila got outside of the classroom, Keila said "Alright, lets go to lunch, I'm bloody starving."

"Ok, come on."

Lily and Keila walked into the Great Hall and sat down. Soon afterwards, Sam, Teri and Shanese walked in as well.

"Hey Keila, Sam, Shanese, Lily." Teri said.

"Hi Teri." Lily replied.

"Hey."(SAM)

"Yo."(KEILA)

"'Sup?" (SHANESE)

They all sat down and began eating their lunch. Just as Lily was about to get up, the Marauders walked in. James took one look at Lily, turned bright red, and sat down a few seats over.

Lily then stood up and walked out.

"What's up with her?" Keila asked.

"I don't know." Teri replied. "Hey, I'm going to go talk to Sirius."

At that comment, Teri stood up and went to-surprise surprise-talk to Sirius.

"Yeah, well, I think it's safe to say that Teri fancies Sirius." Shanese said.

"DUH!" Everyone practically screamed.

After lunch, Lily headed to Divination. Her "Div. Buddies." As they were deemed, were Teri and Sam. They walked towards the Divination room and climbed up the ladder. Soon, they were seated in beanbag chairs in front of a crystal ball. They were assigned to assess each others' dreams. Today was a simple practice; there would be a test later on.

"Uh…I don't really dream." Sam said.

"Me either." Lily said

"I had a dream like a year ago." Teri put in.

"What was it?" Lily asked.

"I don't remember." Teri replied sheepishly.

"Well, that's great." Sam said sarcastically.

"Well, we'll just make something up."

"Ok"

They spent the next hour and a half making up dreams and interpreting said made-up dreams. As they were excused, Lily, Teri, and Sam climbed down the ladder ad out of the classroom.

"Glad that's over." San said.

"Yeah." Teri agreed. "I have Charms next."

Lily nodded. " I have free."

Keila and Shanese also had free.

"Hey Keila, Shanese." Lily said, walking into the Gryffindor common room.

"Hey Lily." Shanese replied.

"So, what are you two doing?" Lily asked.

"Finishing my homework." Keila said quickly, turning back to her essay.

"Me too." Shanese said.

"Done." Keila said. "I'm going down to the lake."

It was only the first week of classes so it was still quite warm.

"Me too." Lily said.

As they walked towards the lake, Lily saw James sitting on a large rock. Her heart fluttered. Just a passing fancy, Lily, just a passing fancy.

"Hey James, where's Remus?" Keila called out to him.

"Um…I think he's doing homework."

"Oh." Keila said, clearly disappointed. "Ok."

"Hi James." Lily said, somewhat shyly.

"Hi Lily." James said equally as shyly.

Keila, clueless about what was going on between them but still sensing that this was a good time to leave, went in search of Remus.

" Lily, about this morning…" James said.

"Oh, yeah, this morning." Lily replied.

" Lily, I want to know why it's wrong." James cut to the chase. Forget small talk, it gets you nowhere.

"I really don't want to talk about this morning." Lily said.

"Fine." James said calmly. "We'll have to talk about it eventually though."

"Hey, where did Keila go?" Lily said, changing the subject.

"Probably to go look for Remus, I swear, she eats, sleeps, and breaths Remus. She' bloody crazy for him and he doesn't even notice. He doesn't think she likes him." James said, deciding to drop it.

"Yeah, probably. That's usually how it is. So clueless." Lily said. " Well, I gotta go." She walked back towards the castle.

Keila hadn't found Remus in the common room. She asked some random person where he was and the person, a fifth year said. "I think he went up to his dorm."

"Thanks kid." Keila said

She hesitated to walk up the boys staircase. After a moment she made a decision and walked up the stairs. She knocked on the door to his dorm(don't ask how she know where it is, she just does.).

"Come on in." A voice Keila recognized as Remus' said.

She pushed open the door and walked in. The room was in complete chaos except for the part around the bed Remus sat on. She smiled.

"Hey Remus."

"Hello there." He said, looking up from his work and smiling seeing it was her.

"So…what are you doing?" She asked off-handedly.

"Well, I was doing an essay, but I just finished." He said.

"That's uh…great?" She said/asked. She walked over to where he was sitting on his bed and sat down next to him.

"So, do you know what's going on between Lily and James?" He asked.

"Nope. I hoped you would. They were really shy around each other."

"Yeah and James turns the color of Lily's hair whenever he sees her."

"I noticed that too but didn't say anything."

"Yeah. We'll find out soon enough."

"Mmm." She agreed.

Lily arrived in the Heads' common room and ran to her dorm. She flung herself on her bed and burst into tears. She lay there, sobbing for a very long time.

Even when James came in an hour and a half later, she was crying rather loudly. He heard her sob and walked to his dorm and lay down. He was having a mix of emotions.

Soon though, the loud sobs stopped as Lily fell asleep.
