Sirius Competition

I don't own HP. J. K. Rowling does.

St. Mungos (Remus POV)

Sirius and I were waiting in the Lobby. For some reason I was kind of nervous. Peter was supposed to be there, but (as usual) he was late. Mrs. and Mr. Potter were with James and would call us when we were allowed to come in. Sirius and I were both quiet, and both pale.

"What do we do if they ask what happened?" Sirius asked me, barely moving his lips.

"Tell them that you and James were in the great hall then he cursed James." I said, my voice shaky and unsure.

"I guess. Should we tell that is was Snape? What about Lily?" I just stared at Sirius when he asked me this question. Two things struck me as odd- Him calling Severus by is last name, Snape, instead of Sevvy or Snivellus. Also, he said 'What about Lily?' instead of 'What about Evans?'.

"I'm not sure. You were the one who was there!" I poined out. I really didn't have answers to his questions.

"Well... I guess. I'll leave Lily out." I think that is what I would have done, left Lily out of the whole situation and told about Snape. I really don't think it is the best idea to leave Sirius' curse out, but if I was Sirius, I wouldn't tell on myself.

St. Mungos (Sirius POV)

"You guys can come in now." Mrs. Potter said, looking solemn. Remus, Peter (who had just arrived) and I got up. We saw James, all cleaned up in a white gown, whose eyes were now partly open.

"Wh- What happened?" He asked. Mr. and Mrs. Potter looked at me.

"You don't remember anything?" I wanted to be sure. He would know if I lied.

"We were talking in the Great Hall about them." He knew I would understand. Mrs. Potter looked at me questionably.

"Oh yeah. Well then we walked a bit more and Snape just said some weird spell and you fell on the floor bleeding." I said. Mrs. Potter looked like she was going to burst into tears. Mr. Potter looked angry.

"For no good reason? He just hexed James?" He asked.

"Well, he thought we were listening in on his conversation or something. We weren't."

"And did you tell Dumbledore?" Mrs. Potter asked.

"Not yet." Remus saved me.

"We should go talk to him." Mr. Potter left the room with Mrs. Potter following closely behind.

"So guess what!" I said, hoping the kiss would cheer up James.

"What?" He looked like the word caused him pain.

"Lily kissed you when you were on the floor!" I whispered so only Peter, Remus and him could hear. Peter's jaw dropped. I guess I forgot to tell him.

"Really?" James looked surprised but not exactly happy.

"Yeah!" I tried again.

"Well that is too bad because I'm giving up on her."

Sorry for the short chapter and long update time. I've been busy! I love reviews and I'm almost to my goal, so keep reviewing. Thanks for reading and check out my other stories!
