Over the next few days October had tried to figure out what the best present for Lily could be, but the only thing that came to mind was a book.

"She probably has all the books in the world." October mumbled as she looked trough the library for book ideas.

"But what she probably doesn't have is a book from the normal world." October said as the thought popped into her head. She ran out of the library and back up the dormitories and to her suitcase. As she threw everything out, October grumbled.

"Where the hell is that book?" October asked herself as she looked through her trunk, not sure where it was.

"October, what are you doing?" October spun around as she heard Lily's voice.

"Looking for a book." October said nonchalantly as she watched Lily eye the mess she had made.

"Did you find it? Or did you throw it out of your trunk with everything else?" Lily asked as she tried to hold back a laugh.

"Its not nice to laugh at me. I was only looking for it because I thought it was one you would enjoy reading." October said as she sat with her back against her trunk.

"Why?" Lily asked as she gave October a confused look.

"Lily I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I've been ignoring you, its just I felt really betrayed. But I miss you as my friend." October sighed as she looked up at the read headed girl in front of her.

"It's okay October. I'm sorry for what I did. I shouldn't have. It was wrong." Lily said as she sat down next to October before hugging her.

"So friends?" October asked, raising her eyebrow at Lily.

"Friends." Both girls smiled as they hugged once again.

"So what book where you looking for?" Lily asked as she once again surveyed the mess around the room.

"The Secret Garden." October sighed once more as she started to pick up the mess she had made.

"Oh I borrowed that from you last month. Its in my trunk." Lily said as she helped October clean the mess.

"How come I don't remember this?" October asked as she randomly threw books into the trunk.

"Because you have a bad memory." Lily laughed as she saw the expression that crossed October's face.

"I do not have a bad memory Lily Evans. Take it back." October said as she stood up straight and crossed her arms.

"No. I'm right October. You do have a bad memory." Lily said as she eyed October seriously while still trying to pick up the mess that the other girl had made.

October laughed a little before resuming to pick up the mess with Lily.

When the mess was finally clean, October and Lily both collapsed on their beds. October glanced at the clock hanging on the wall and she gasped when she saw what time it was.

"Lily I have to go!" She jumped up off her bed and began to rush out of the room.

Lily got up and followed her out of the room and down the stairs to the common room.

"Where are you going?" Lily asked October as she watched her run out of the portrait hole.

"I promised I would meet Sirius. I cant break the promise." October huffed and the portrait of the fat lady swung shut.

Lily sighed again before taking a seat on the couch. She laid her head back and closed her eyes, trying to get comfortable until she heard someone sit down beside her. She turned her head slightly and opened one eye to see James there.

"Can I help you?" Lily asked as she eyed James before shutting her eyes once more.

"Go out with me Lily." James said as he kept his gaze on her face.

"Nope." Lily shook her head as she pushed herself up from the couch and headed back up to the dorm room.

James sighed as he rubbed his eyes with the back of his hands.

"Will she ever want me?" He asked himself as he too headed up to his dorm room.
