Okay here's the next chapter sorry I haven't updated in ages I was just really busy!!
Disclaimer: I don't own anything you guys recognise!!
"Katie! Katie! Oh Merlin where are you?!" Lily shouted as she entered the common room.
"Lily? What's going on? What happened?!" Katie answered her hysteric friend, her voice dripping with concern.
"You will not believe what just happened!" Lily said out of breath.
"Lily calm down. Look sit down and tell me what happened." Katie said bringing Lily over to a chair to sit down.
"Okay so I was on the way back from prefect duty and I walk by the window and I look out and I see this thing writhing around on the ground outside and then it gets up and suddenly out of nowhere there's a big deer, stag thing and a dog around it jumping on it and I think I saw this tiny rat thing on the ground beside it running around. It so weird. What do you think is going on?!" Lily rushed through finishing looking confused.
Katie raised her eyebrows and placed the back of her hand to Lily's forehead. "I think someone needs to see Madame Pomfrey." Katie answered.
"I'm not sick!" Lily said defiantly. "I know what I saw and I saw that...thing on the grounds! If you don't believe me fine! I'll find someone else to investigate it with me." Lily said as she began to walk away.
"No Lily don't do that I was just surprised that's all! I believe you." Katie said after catching up with her.
"You promise?" Lily asked unsure of her friend.
"Of course I do! Plus who else would you go to if I didn't?" she asked sarcastically.
"Ha true!" Lily answered through a smile. "You coming to bed?"
"Yeah I'll be up in a minute." She answered.
With that Lily went up the stairs and through the door to their dorm, her mind still buzzing about what might be going on in Hogwarts that she didn't know about.
It was four in the morning and the marauders were just coming in the portrait hole carrying Remus between them, after a busy night with his condition.
"Prongs watch the lamp!" Sirius whispered too late just as the lamp went crashing to the ground making a loud noise in the empty common room.
"Shit! Hurry up lads someone probably heard that!" James said from behind Sirius and Peter, carrying his arms.
Just as he finished there was a gasping noise from the entrance to the girl's dorm room.
"Oh Merlin! What happened to Remus?" Lily asked looking over his scratched, bruised body.
"Em...he fell down the stairs. Didn't he guys? Yup fell down the stairs." James said trying to convince Lily and failing miserably.
"James what happened? Was it those animals on the grounds?" Lily asked ignoring the astonished look James gave her after using his first name.
"What animals?" James asked worry tugging his voice.
"Guys can we wrap this up a bit quicker here? Moony is kind of heavy for such a scrawny guy!" Sirius said panting.
"Put him on the couch." Lily answered still looking at James scrutinising him. "Now are you going to tell me or what?" Lily asked before walking over to the boys and sitting down on the floor in front of the couch they put Remus on.
"Lily...I don't think we can." James answered hesitantly.
"What you don't think you can? You either can or you can't" Lily said getting frustrated.
"Lily we can't tell you at the moment because it's not for us to tell." Sirius interjected.
"What do you mean?" Lily asked getting confused.
"Can we talk about this in the morning I'm really tired?" Sirius asked yawning.
"Fine!" Lily said before storming off up the stairs to the girl's dorm.
"Potty! Come here." Lily shouted through the common room.
James s said goodbye to Sirius and walked over to Lily "Why do you insist on calling me that when other people are around?" He asked his hands in his pockets.
"Because it suits your face better." Lily answered giving him her sweetest smile.
"Why did you call me over? Because if it's just so you can insult me more I'm leaving!" James said his cheerfulness gone.
"No don't do that I'm sorry. Um... I called you over to ask about last night." Lily asked hesitantly looking up at him cautiously.
James drooped head and sighed saying "I thought we told you I wasn't for us to tell,"
"Well then whose is it to tell at least tell me that. Please James." Lily asked desperately.
James looked at her for a few moments, searching her eyes, then he called "Remus can you come here for a sec?"
Remus looked over, confusion written on his face "What's up?" looking from Lily to James and back again.
"Lily wants to know about last night." James said still not looking away from Lily.
"Remus please tell me. I know something is going on, you have to tell me please" Lily pleaded.
"I can't Lily not yet." Remus said looking at his feet.
"What do you mean not yet?" Lily asked.
"I mean I don't trust you enough to tell you what's going on yet. I'm sorry Lily."
"Ugh! What do I have to do to make you trust me more?" Lily asked exasperated.
"Just forget about it and continue as normal. Be Lily Evans."
"Well who else would I be?" Lily asked before storming past them and through the portrait hole to breakfast in the Great Hall.
"I think it might have been better just to tell her. It is not good to be on the wrong side of Lily Evans." James said staring after the red head.
"Yeah I know but I just don't trust her enough yet. I'm sorry; I know you're madly in love with her or whatever." Remus said beginning to walk to the portrait hole to follow the red head to breakfast.
"I'm not madly in love with her!" James objected futilely.
"Ha whatever!" Was all Remus said to that comment.
