Chapter eleven.

"She kissed me!" James yelled as he ran through the door of Sirius' cottage,

"Sirius! She kissed me!" he yelled again, Emma ran out of the bedroom in only a towel,

"James! Don't tell him that! I thought we weren't going to tell them what happened between us?"

"No! Not that!" James said, "Lily kissed me!"

"Oh, congratulations." Emma said,

"Yeah, thanks. Where's Sirius?"

"I dunno, he's always going somewhere, leaving me to do all the housework."

"That's not fair."

"I know." Emma said, "You know what he said yesterday when he came home from Hogsmeade."

"Oh god, was he smashed?"

"Surprisingly no, but he came in and said, 'Er, Emma, where is my dinner?' and I just blew up."

"Too right, that is so wrong." James said, he was disgusted and ashamed of Sirius,

"And then we had a fight and he called me Emmalille, and that was the last straw, I threw his clothes out the front door and haven't seen him since."

"Well, I'll deal with him." James said angrily,

"He's probably living in the forbidden forest, I bet he's delirious and crazy from lack of food and people to piss off." Emma sighed, then realizing she was wearing only a towel, she said, "I'm going to go and get dressed now." then walked back to the bedroom, leaving James in the living room. He ran out the door and towards the forest, which was rather close to the large group of cottages.

James had been in this forest many times, so it wasn't scary for him, and even if something did happen, he could easily just transform and run off.

"Padfoot!" he called, "Padfoot, are you out there? It's an emergency!"

James came to a clearing where he found a big black dog drinking from a lake, "Sirius!" he said, "Transform now, it's urgent."

He watched the dog slowly morph into a dirty,worried looking Sirius Black.

"What is it? Is there something wrong with Sirius Junior? Did he choke on the Padfoot shaped cookies I asked Emma to make him?"

"No, Padfoot is not a shape, it's a nickname, and that's what I wanted to talk to you about."

"Hey, James if you wanted some Padfoot shaped cookies, you should have asked."

"No, I don't want any Padfoot shaped cookies. The problem is you."

"Me?"

"Yeah, you're being a sexist bastard towards Emma. She's sick of it, and so am I. So, if you don't clean up your act, I'm going to get very pissed off."

"Right." He said, "Where'd you get that from?"

"Straight from the horse's mouth, you practically just admitted to being stupid, and Emma told me about it. That's why she kicked you out."

"Oh."

"Yeah, so just…er stop being an idiot." James said,

"Alright then." Sirius said, edging slowly away from James,

"Oh, and have a shower, you stink."

Lily sung an old song from when she was little, it sounded off-key and out of tune, but she didn't care.She was in the shower, finishing off washing her hair.

"Hello Lily." someone said, Lily screamed,

"James! Get out!" she turned to face the wall so that he couldn't see much.

"What?"

"Get out! What is wrong with you?"

"Nothing. Lily, what's up?"

"Nothing. What do you mean?"

"How long are you going to keep doing this?"

"This?"

"Yes, this."

"What's this?"

"This dance we do." James said, Lily was feeling very uncomfortable, seeing as she was naked in the shower, the water was going cold and James was in there, acting very relaxed about the whole thing.

"What do you mean?"

"You keep leading me on, and then going all hot and cold on me!" he said loudly,

"I do not."

"You do, first you make out with me, then you go off me, and then you kiss me on the cheek, I'm getting mixed messages. I need to know what's up."

"James, turn around." She said, James did as he was told and face the window; Lily got out of the shower and pulled a towel around herself,

"James what are you waving at?"

"The birdies." He said happily, waving to something outside the window, "Are you done yet?"

"Yeah, you can turn around." James turned around,

"So?"

"So… let's give it a go." Lily said,

"What?"

"I said, let's give it a go."

"Really?" Lily nodded, "I don't have to fight, cos' I had this whole speech planned out."

"No, no fighting."

"Wow, that simple huh?"

"Yep."

"Well then, I wonder what else is simple?" he said with a raised eyebrow,

"James, I only just agreed, don't go getting any ideas." She said, walking out of the bathroom, giving him a quick kiss before entering the bedroom and closing the door behind her.
