AN: Obviously my shameless bribery has not worked as I have not reaped many reviews. Honestly people most of you are authors you know that feedback is needed on a story to help develop it! And I know most of you have added this to your story alert so please review without making me grovel.

James moved towards the dance floor when suddenly he was intercepted by Emeline Vance who started sort of rubbing against him, obviously drunk. James didn't mind, he rubbed along for a little while because Emeline was a pretty girl whom he happened to like. The firewhiskeys he's had where starting to make his blood burn in a pleasant manner rendering him woozy and impairing his better judgment. Emeline was starting to kiss his neck and suckle on it and he was enjoying himself oblivious to the many stares they were getting as everyone knew James was in love with Lily. All in all James was quite enjoying his victory party until he looked up from his rubbing and saw a tear-streaked face look at him and run off. James' senses then came rushing back in a fit of soberness. He shoved Emeline into Sirius's arms who was more than happy to oblige and while dodging around numerous tipsy and interested girls he ran out of the common room after that face he didn't think he would ever forget.

"Mary! Mary wait up!" James yelled but he knew exactly where she would go when she was upset, one was the pitch but as she was upset with him he doubted the memories would help. So he directed himself towards the Astronomy Tower because he had lost sight of her anyways. He heard sobbing and ran up the stairs and banged the door open a little too loudly. Startled Maty looked up and upon seeing him sobbed some more before asking,

"What do you want James? And how did you know I was here?"

"You once told me when you're upset you need to see the stars and they calm you down, after today I doubted you would go onto the pitch so I came here. As for what I want, I want to know what the matter is."

"If you don't know then I think we're both wasting our time here."

"I think I have an idea of what it might be that upset you so much but o be sure I'm going to need you to look me in the eyes Mary."

Mary brought her tear-stained face up to stare into James' searching eyes and he seemed satisfied with what he found because he smiled a bit before saying,

"Mary, it didn't mean anything; it was just drunken dancing."

"What on earth would make you think your rubbing and slurping with Emeline the horny Ravenclaw are what upset me? You are too self centered for your own good Potter!" she snapped wiping the tears off her face and standing up to leave.""

"Mary, don't do this."

"I'll do what I dam, well please Potter. You may call the shots on the pitch but right now you don't get to decide anything about what I will of won't do!"

James caught Mary's arm and spun her towards him, "Mary, it's ok."

"No James it is anything but ok. You know what go back to the party and leave me be." She tried to free her arm.

James tugged her towards him spinning her around and kissed her, it was perfect: soft yet passionate, he held her close under that stars and slipped a hand into her hair and snaked an arm around her waist to bring her closer. Any girls dream kiss couldn't have been more perfect yet when they pulled away, Mary opened her eyes to glare at James, push him away and shouted, "You prick! You think you can just go around kissing girls because they're upset or drunk! News flash potter not everyone is at your feet begging you to care about them!"

"Jesus Mary! I don't go around kissing random girls! I friggin' fancy you! I did not kiss Emeline and that kiss meant something to me!"

"Really well good for you! I hope you enjoyed it while it lasted. Now as moved as I was by your touching declaration you'll have to excuse me, I'm going to bed away from you and your saliva!"

Mary wrenched open the door and ran back to the Common Room hearing James' echoing shouts behind her as she did so. She said the password and rushed into the room only to find Sirius and Emeline heavily making out and Lily and Kingsley dancing rather closely while occasionally kissing and talking. Mary started for the girls' staircase when she heard the portrait hole open behind her, knowing who it was she ran to the staircase.

"Mary!" James shouted looking at her desperately over the croud.

Mary turned around and shot him a look full of disappointment, disgust, sadness, hope and anger. She then continued up to her dorm slamming the door while James deciding to teach her a lesson joined the party one again after several beverages and grabbed the first willing girl and started to make out with her.

AN: I hadn't intended to make everything so messy but I feel a little drama never hurt anybody in the long run...Tell me what you think and what I should do next!
