Chapter 4: Shaky Legs and a Jealous Sirius

'What is he up to now?' Sirius thought sadly with confusion written all over his handsome face as he watched his slender amber-eyed friend all cleaned up on Saturday morning.

"Hey, what's the rush?" he calmly asked.

"Oh, I'm just going to take a walk with Lily," Remus replied nervously while looking down at his slightly shaking feet. He knows that Sirius thinks that he is with Lily, he figured that James told him about it by now....

"Oh-kay then," Sirius noticed the anxiousness. Remus faked a smile with his perfectly shaped rose-red lips and sped off.

"Lily, good you're up," Remus said breathlessly, "I know that you hate me right now for everything and especially for ruining your relationship with James, I'm only asking if you can be patient, I will tell James eventually when I'm ready which I hope will be soon, so all of this misunderstanding between both of you will be resolved," he added in a professional 'stranger' voice.

"For god sake Remus, stop acting as if I'm an alien, and no, I never had a relationship with Potter and I don't care if he's pissed off. Thirdly, I'll never stop being friends with you Remus, so stop acting like a stranger to me." Lily said with a hint of tears in her emerald green eyes.

"But...-"

"No buts! You have been a wonderful friend to me, in a matter of fact, you are my first real friend I ever have....well, Severus is my first but still..-"

"So are you saying that we're back to normal..as in we're still friends?" Remus asked his lips curved up and slightly amused by Lily's rambling.

"Obviously you daft, if not, I would have left you when I found out the other day," Lily said matter-of-factly.

"Remus, tomorrow is the hogsmeade trip right? Do you know that there will be a musical play by this famous kid....what's his name?" Lily changed the topic.

"Gilderoy Lockhart?" Remus answered curiously, "So?"

"Well since you're not with anybody tomorrow, I've decided to watch the play with you,"

"Oh, I don't know...James might -"

"I don't care what James might think, it's going be fun, the title of the play is 'The Tale of The Jinxed Bride', sound interesting ain't it?" Lily said excitedly, "besides Alice is going with Frank, so I don't want to interrupt and you...I've noticed that you are getting quite distance with your friends so might as well go with me..you can tell James that it's not a date if you want to," she added with a hint of nervousness in her voice.

At the breakfast table~

"Soooo? Please tell me you're coming with me?" Lily inspected Remus's moody expression.

"Yeah, I am, but I didn't tell James about this, he just keep avoiding me and he's not afraid to show it. I don't know Lily, I never felt so depressed in my life, I don't want to lose our friendship or maybe I don't deserve his friendship...i think beasts are destined to be lonely," Remus said sullenly.

"Remus, you over exaggerate sometimes, he's only angry because he thinks that you're dating me," Lily convinced him.

"But what about Sirius and Peter, I know they faked their sleeps so that they don't have to confront me, obviously they're siding with James, I'm going to die alone Lily, ALONE!" Remus snapped.

"Enough trash talking, lets cheer you up," Lily dragged Remus up and sauntered slowly to hogsmeade.

Hogsmeade~

"Damn it, it's them," Remus gasped anxiously while pointing his finger to the three dark figures ascending to their views.

"Chill Remus, it's not like they're going to the play," Lily assured him. As James, Sirius ad Peter approached, Remus and Lily stopped to a halt. After a moment of awkward silence, James just continued fronting while Peter tailed him but Sirius remain fixed in his position. His betrayed grey eyes meet the frail amber eyes. Sirius himself didn't know why he felt such hatred towards the hands-holding couple, was it jealousy....'jealous of what?'...that's ridiculous.

Remus gulped, his legs were visibly shaking(not because of cold). Then his legs gave away and was about to topple down(again!) unfortunately very close to Sirius.

Because of the slow reaction of Sirius Black, Lily Evans came to the rescue. She grasp Remus's waist this time but she didn't manage to pull him up. It ended up by having Lily landing on top of Remus.(awkward)

After seeing this with bulging tear-glistened eyes, Sirius stalked away. Remus managed to call out for him but Sirius didn't heard him or pretended not to.
