Sorry this chapter took so long! -hangs head in shame- I'm a horrible author! I know the last chapter might have been awkward for those of you who read it before i slightly edited the end of it, but it was just characterizing Renee. Well it's here now, finally. I just got a little bit lazy, and tired, and then of course school happened. I hate science just to let you know. My science teacher too. So for my science teacher who isn't reading this and never will, I Hate You. Well I suppose you don't want to listen to my rambling about my evil science teacher, so yeah on with the story. You guys know I don't own any of these characters so yeah... Here 'ya go!

The next few days just flew by for Lily. She was always seen with a crazy grin on her face. Especially when Josh was around. Nobody noticed James uneasiness, nor his failed attempts to make the rest of them jealous his time was being spent, well not with them. They all liked Josh in short. He was cute, funny, charming, and smart. Everything Lily ever wanted in a guy. Even Sirius approved after a thorough interrogation.

The day of the Hogsmeade visit was no different.

"Hey baby," Josh said, sliding onto the bench at Gryffindor Table giving Lily a peck on the cheek.

Before Lily had a chance to answer Kylie jumped in.

"Oh hey Josh," Kylie said cheerfully. Lily always had this thing about answering people first, it was one of those odd little quirks about her.

Lily just tossed a playful glare in Kylie's direction.

"He was talking to me 'ya know,"

"Ya I know. It's just fun to push your buttons," Kylie responded spreading some marmalade onto her already butter loaded toast.

"So," Josh started breaking off the playful little mini battle between the best friends so early in the morning. "What are we doing in Hogsmeade?"

"Well," Lily started, "I was thinking that we could go to Honeydukes first. I need to restock on my Ice Mice and Drooble's Best Blowing Bubble Gum, maybe even get some Pumpkin Pasties for Lauren since I ate her last pack."

"Sounds good to me. How about after that we can go to the Shrieking Shack or something. It's the most haunted house in Britain,"

"Yeah over the past three years of Hogsmeade visits I think I've established that." she said letting out an un-Lily like giggle.

"Right, well then we could just wander the streets and meet the others at the Three Broomsticks at one?"

"No, sorry, one isn't good for us," Sirius said pointing at Lauren and himself.

"Why?" Lauren asked.

"Because, we have to make a stop at Zonko's at 12:30!" he said as if it was obvious.

"So,"

Sirius sighed. "So.... That means we have to get our full hour in there!"

"An HOUR?" she asked.

"Well yeah, you didn't think that we would just leave all of the new merchandise for amateurs to buy did you?" he asked laughing.

"I guess not. But we ARE meeting Lily and Josh at the Three Broomsticks at one thirty. Madam Rosemerta would be disappointed to see one of her best customers not show up," said teasingly.

Rosemerta was the pretty Barmaid at the Three Broomsticks. She always had on a pair of sparkly heels to match her outfit. She graduated four years ago, so she was still young, and loved to humor the Marauders.

"So I'm guessing that Remus, Peter, and Morgan will be coming with?"

"Why do I have to go?" Morgan whined jokingly.

"I'm not going to be the only girl there! Alice and Frank are going to be on their date. Lily and Josh will be together, and Kylie and Logan are going to be on their date as well. You have nobody to go with besides me. Don't think I didn't have this planned out either. It'll be fun, maybe,"

"Yeah, maybe." Morgan grumbled, really she was glad she and Lauren were going to hang out together with Remus, Peter, and Sirius. That meant she and Remus would be able to spend some time together. Ruining her unhappy act, she started smiling uncontrollably.

"Erm, Morg? Why are grinning like an idiot?" Peter asked. Morgan turned a dark shade of red when Peter pointed this out. Everybody started laughing and just joking around for about five more minutes. Until of course James and Renee had to come over and ruin it.

Sliding down next to Sirius he and Renee started talking, Renee giggling like the bimbo she really was.

"Oh James you are sssoooo funny," she said batting her eyelashes, sliding her hand down James arm. It was quite disgusting how open she was about Public Display of Affection (PDA for short).

"Yeah I am aren't I?" tilting his head back so his voice carried over to their group.

"Let's go," Frank suggested seeing the growing tension between the groups.

They got to the carriages clear of anymore obnoxious giggling.

Lily and Josh parted off from the others, and walking hand in hand to Honeydukes.

"Hey look at this!" Lily yelled across the little shop.

"Yeah?" he said hands in the pocket of his jeans walking casually towards her.

"They make the ice move now!" she said excitedly.

"I'll buy them for you, how 'bout that?" he asked sweetly.

"Well...."

"That's what boyfriends are for right?" he asked lightly with a chuckle to go along.

"Sure. Thanks boyfriend," she said giving him a sweet peck on the lips. Lily filled the bag of candy to the top and gave it to Josh to go pay for while she went and did some more sweet shopping.

A half hour later they were walking down the street and down the hill towards the Shrieking Shack.

"You scared?" Josh teased.

"You wish," Lily laughed.

"So do you really think there are ghosts in the shack?" Lily asked.

"No, I think it's a werewolf." At this Lily froze.

"A werewolf?" she asked nervously.

"Well yeah, I mean ghosts don't howl at night do they?"

"I guess not," Lily said chosing her words carefully afraid of letting something slip of Remus' condition. She had a habit of rambling when she was nervous.

"Are you scared now?"

Deciding to humor him, Lily put on her best terrified acting face and humored him.

"Are you sure it's a werewolf?" Lily asked in her fake scared voice.

"Well yeah," Josh said over confidently, "I mean what else do you know that makes those kinds of scratches there, except a VERY irritated niffler?" He said pointing to some deep long gashes you could see from inside the closed, dirty, window.

"I'm not sure......"

"Let's go back up to the streets," Lily suggested feverishly, starting to get antsy by just standing at the place where Remus had to transform gave her the creeps.

"Ok, I thought you weren't scared though," he said questioningly.

"Oh I'm not it's just we have to meet the others in ten minutes," she said checking her watch.

"OK," Josh said awkwardly. "Whatever you say, what ever you say," he mumbled.

As they started up the hill Lily tripped over a stray tree root.

"Aaaahhhh!" she shrieked in pain.

"Lily!" Josh yelled as she started tumbling down the steep, gravely hill.

As soon as Lily started to plummet towards the ground she instinctively shoved her hands out in front of her and closed her eyes, bracing herself for the impact. It came. As soon as her body got to the 150 degree angle part of her fall, she heard a deafening crack, well for her ears at least. Her ankle had snapped, she had surely broken it, or fractured it at the least.

She started tumbling down the cold, hard, rocky hill.

In one swift movement Josh was holding her by the wrist.

Another crack and her wrist was broken and limp, getting harder and harder to hold onto.

"LILY!!!!!" a scared voice shrieked.

Josh looked up towards the voice quickly. That was just enough motion for his large, rough, hand to slip out of her small, soft, and limp one.

"LILY!!!" another voice yelled from the top of the hill.

"Well... Get her!" Morgan screamed.

"Oh yeah right," and in a flash Josh was running full speed down the hill. For being a in fit Quidditch player, this was pretty fast, going downhill especially.

When he got there he already knew her wrist and ankle were broken, and he now saw all of the tiny scratches, and scrapes, even a few gashes all over her body. At least she was wearing long sleeves that were only partially rolled up.

He decided he didn't have enough time to carry her all the way up, and he knew he couldn't levitate her so he did the only thing he could think of. Apparate. He knew it was especially dangerous when his mind was so muddled, but it was his only chance of actually getting her back up to the street without help.

Crack.

Unable to hear the crack due to the loud and obnoxious group of boys near them they nearly screamed when they saw Josh, cradling Lily in his arms like a baby, appear out of thin air.

"We need to get her to the Hospital Wing," Josh said hurriedly. "And fast." he added.

"Well if it isn't Davies," a snide voice from behind sneered.

"Sod off Potter," Lauren said pulling her wand out.

"Now, now Lestrange no need for wands," he said smugly.

"No need for you ugly face either," Morgan spat acidly.

"Well at least his face is cuter than your boyfriends," Renee said innocently. "Oh that's right, you don't have one." she said triumphantly.

"Just ignore them," Josh muttered, still not turning around.

"So, did you lose your girlfriend already?" James mused. (For those of you who are wondering, Josh is next to Lauren and Morgan, so James and Renee can't see Lily's legs. When they turned around the took a step forward, unknowingly blocking their view of Josh from an angle.)

At this Josh turned around.

"We all will if you don't just get the hell away. She fell down the hill and is losing blood fast. You just had to come and slow us down," he angrily snarled.

Trying to regain his cool, he just started walking forward. Making sure to purposely bang into Lauren's braced shoulder on his way. Renee, Lily's feet.

"Now that that's over with," Lauren mumbled.

"You have to get her to Madam Pomfrey. Her broken wrist and stuff isn't a problem, but the castle is at least a ten minute walk, and she's losing a lot of blood." Lauren said urgently. "There are just so many scrapes and gashes."

"Come on," Josh said, swiftly taking large strides, so that the girls had to jog just to keep up with.

(Zonkos)

"So where do you think the girls went?" Remus asked Sirius.

"They're probably over looking at the Nose Biting Teacups, or something that looks girly," Sirius voiced carelessly.

"Or they ditched us." Remus said in a resigned voice.

"Or, they're just looking at the dung bombs," said Sirius dismissing the thought with a wave of his hand.

"Sirus," Remus started, with a look of pure astonishment of his best friends stupidity. "I doubt Lauren would be looking at dung bombs. Remember in third year when you put one in her satchel?"

Sirius' face paled at the memory.

"Yeah they ditched us." he said trying to recover from the mere thought of Christmas third year.

"So......"

"What!"

"I have a really bad feeling about this," he muttered.

"Fine, we'll go looking for them if that's how you really want to spend the rest of your trip,"

"You can always come back later, or next trip. We can even sneak out," Peter said, appearing out of nowhere apparently having listen to the whole conversation.

"Wormtail, we've been over this. One visit per trip. Remember what happened that one time we came twice?" he asked, now obviously irritated at his friends.

Peter and Remus simulataneously gulped.

"Third Year was a bad year. I never knew Lily and Kylie could hit so hard," Peter shuddered.

"Ok, fine we'll leave. Potter has the map anyways." he muttered darkly. "I mean it's not like we can prank without.... him," Sirius trailed off. He was referring to James of course, or Potter as he was called by them. In their second year when they found out about Remus' condition they made a pact. A pact to forever be friends, and never prank, make a new pact, have secrets, nor secretly date without the rest knowing.

When they got outside they were met with the squabble between the two parties in plain sight.

They noticed three things.

1) Lily was obvoisly hurt, in pain, unconcious, bleeding, and being held in somebody's arms.

2) Potter and Abercrombie were amused at the sight of Lily being hurt, mangled, and bleeding, or that's how they saw it anyways from the distance.

3) Potter was there.

And CUT!!!!!!! I know it's been awhile since I'm posted, and as I've said I am SO sorry! Again evil science teachers do affect my mood. And evil science teacher's homework. -grumbles- Well I'm finally finished. I started to read the Twlight series also this week, that's another reason why I didn't post a few days earlier. For those of you who got mad in a few previous chapters when I mentioned the name Jacob Black, I still don't regret it. I don't like Jacob Black very much. I just finished New Moon, so I still might change my mind, THEN apologize to you but yeah....

LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!! REVIEW PLEASE!!!!!!!!!! YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO!

Again, love you!
