ThAnKs 2 aLL mY FANTABULOUS rEviEwErS
A/N – I never told you guys this, but me n the other person who shares this user name (BEC) are having a bet. Whoever gets the most reviews in one week for one chappie wins. She won last week, but I….I WON THIS WEEK YAY! Anyway the terms of the bet aren't made yet, but we'll tally them up and whoever wins the most until Christmas has to do something or something or other. Never mind, I'm just talking nonsense now. Well THANKS 4 REVIEWING!
Captain Oblivious – LOL you're hilarious! Thanks for reviewing. Hope your backside doesn't hurt from falling backwards LOL. Anwayz I thought people would get annoyed with all the 'I love you' stuff, thanks for saying it wasn't. Anyway I have to ask you something. Your absolutely amazing, fantabulous, excellent and purrfect fanfic – If you're not the one- will it be continued? It was just sooooooooo great and I'm practically pissing my pants waiting for you to post the next chapter (if you are). Well hope you like.
Agloechen – thanks for reviewing. The James and Lily scene will be ………. NOT TELLING! You'll just have to wait and see. That will be my favourite chapter to write, I'll make it is fluffy and lovie dubby as possible. I love romance scenes, they make my eyes go all watery, my stomach goes all fluttery and I start thinking 'will that be me?' The bec-sirius-em thingy is complicated. I don't exactly know what to do with them, but if you have any ideas drop me a line. Anywayz enjoy this chappie.
kevin luver – Hehehe, are you hyper now? You still driving your boyfriend nuts, lol? Well that's what boyfriends are for, to annoy, lol. How was your field trip to the interesting football field? It's absolutely enjoyable watching grass grow. NOT. Oh well, anyways I have to tell you a story of what happened to me in food tech. It involves a 'frying pan of doom', lol. Okay in food we were making spring rolls and we had to put them in frying pans full of hot oil. I put my stove really high n me n my partner put them in and they just started sizzling and spluttering out oil everywhere. It was evil I tell you. Anyway I started to yell and freak out n I got sent out n the teacher called me an 'over exaggerating girl', huh, it was trying to kill me I tell you. Anyway thanks for reviewin hope you're hyper while you read this chapter.
Jamesflower - thanks for reviewing. Hope you like this chappie!
FireFox 37x – Hey thanks for reviewing. I hated myself for writing what I wrote, but sometimes that's what happens. The guy or gurl you like might to like you in return, no matter how much you care about him or her. (Learnt from experience, and I'm sure this has happened to loads of people). That is what I love about writing, you can put a bit of yourself into your stories. Thanks and hope you like.
Wicca Willow – Thanks heaps for reviewing. I really liked how Lily blurted it out too, I thought it was cute. Originally I was going to have him to her, but I've read too many stories like that, and I've read too many stories having it said in a perfect way. Sometimes things just come out, I reckon they're just as perfect as the perfect way. You get me, or am I confusing you? Lol never mind. Anyway have fun reading.
hugabug – SHUX, really! Thanks for reviewing. I hope you like this chappie as much as you did the others.
COuRtNeY - AHHHH I know, both couples said it. Good work for picking the 'I love your eyes' part. No one else has commented on that. Yeah that means 'I love you'. Well for James and Lily that is. James was going to tell Lily he loved her many times, but in the end Lily told James. How funny? Well do enjoy.
cute-crazy-chick1 – thanks for reviewing. Have fun readin this chappie
Manny2003 – thanks for reviewing. I hope you find this chappie kool too.
tom girl – thanks for reviewing. Was this up soon enough? I couldn't get it up earlier becoz I hadn't written it and I didn't have time to write it all week. I haven't even written it now, I'm just responding to my fantabulous reviewers and then I'll start writing it. I'll try and make it good. Hope you like.
padfootluvr88 – thanks for reviewing. I'm glad you liked it. Were you surprise that Lily told James, and that James didn't tell Lily first? Well, the bec-sirius-em thingy is pretty difficult to write. Either way someone will get hurt and their group will get torn apart. I'm thinking of a happily ever after ending, but so far I haven't thought of one. If you got any ideas tell tell plz. Hope you enjoy this chappie.
forsakenphoenix1 – I love lily and james stories aswell! Lol, anywayz thanks for reviewing and I hope you like this chapter.
iNsAnEgUrLrOx – Here, here. I agree, from the start I knew that Em and Sirius would break up. I couldn't see them like I see James and Lily. Do you think Bec is Sirius' kinda girl? Hope you like this chappie.
Alcapacien/Quiggles – thank-you very much for reviewing. AND for using manners by saying please! LoL anywayz hope you like this one.

Prefect's Are Boring
James POV
Laddidaddida……………Laddidaddida…………….. Laddidaddida……………………...
How can these people, NO, I mean 'prefect's' just sit here and talk about the stuff they're talking about? It's boring I say! Laddidaddida…………….. Laddidaddida……………… Laddidaddida…………………. Laddida-
"James, James" said Lily.
"Huh" I replied, I had no clue what she was talking about. I had no clue what they're talking about "This is my first meeting, I don't understand"
Everyone sighed and shook their heads. Moony on the other hand, slapped his hands over his mouth, trying to stifle his laughter.
"Well" announced Lily "What we were talking about before 'Potter' or 'Mr. This is my first meeting' interrupted us, was Halloween"
"Ohhhhh" exclaimed James "That's soon isn't it"
"Yes it is" said Lily through clenched teeth. She was obviously getting annoyed at my lack of interest or input in the meeting.
"Anyway" interrupted Moony, he could see the anger rising in her eyes and didn't want us to start fighting "Dumbledore suggested that we might have some sort of festival or fair kind of thing"
"Maddaz" I yelled. Hogwart's has never had a fair or festival, this is going to be grand.
"OH" complained a female fifth year from Hufflepuff "I really wanted a ball. My friends wanted me to suggest a ball. And I'm sure lots of you would want a ball?"
"Um, how about NO?" barked back Michael Croner, he was a 6th year Slytherin "All you girls get all 'stupid' when it comes to dresses and dates and make-up. And the list goes on. Balls turn you into giggling maniacs"
All the girls glared at him, but couldn't reply because is was the truth. The boys on the other hand made signs of agreement, silently that is, we didn't want to have the girls turn on us.
"I have an idea" squealed Christina Murdock, unfortunately she was made prefect last year. "We could sort of have both. You know like, we could trick 'n' treat in Hogsmeade during the day, and then at night we could like, um, you know like, have stuff!"
"Stuff" snorted Lily in disgust "I like the first 'stuff'', but maybe at night we could set up an open tent and have a dance floor below it. And we could also have – "
"Unicorn Rides"
"Fairy floss"
"Ghost stories"
"A play"
"Snoggin" I yelled, everyone turned and laughed.
"Thanks for breaking the chain of thought James" Lily said as she lightly hit me over the head "-but anyone else have any ideas"
"Costume competition"
"Games"
The list went on and on. And as the hour progressed Lily's parchment became full of ideas and suggestions for Halloween.
"Well I think that's all" declared Lily as she put her parchment in a neat pile "The next meeting will be this time next week. And if anyone has any ideas before then don't hesitate to tell James or myself"
She looked over at me and I was swinging back and forth on my chair, not paying any attention to what was going on. She shook her head and turned to the prefect's.
"Scratch that, maybe you should contact Remus or myself instead" she said.
"Huh, but that's James' job" whined Moony.
"Remus" mumbled Lily a cold expression on her face.
"Find, but I still think its James' job" mumbled Moony as he glared at me.
The prefect's left the room and Moony, Lily and I remained.
"I swear you two are just as bad as each other" stated Lily looking frustrated.
We just laughed.
"Hey Lily. Are you okay with me, well, being what I am?" asked Moony.
Lily was on the verge of crying, again. "Of course I'm okay with you being you. For God's sake Remus why would I have a problem? Did you think you chose to get bitten? It's not fair, you're so nice. You're a great person" she took a breath and wiped the tears that had started to pour out of her eyes "You're the only Marauder I truly respect"
"Hey" I shrieked in protest.
"Oh Lily, don't cry" Moony pleaded.
"I'm not crying" replied Lily stubbornly "Anyway let's change the subject"
"Before she starts the water works again" I mumbled jokingly under my breath.
"Prongs shut your mouth" whispered Moony "I don't want her to start crying again"
"So how's things with you and Bec?" Lily asked.
"Um, well. There was never an 'us' to start off" explained Moony.
"What?" Lily and I yelled.
"I mean, we just started hanging around each other because everyone started pairing off. I love her and everything, but just as a friend. And the same goes for her. Everyone just assumed that we were together, even we assumed we were together" he laughed "You know she loves Sirius"
"What?" Lily and I yelled.
"Well, I'm tired I'm going back to the tower" he stood up and smiled "James, Lily, close your mouths and stop staring. It's rude" he laughed then exited.
"Okay. I think we missed something" Lily said, obviously still shocked about the revelation of Sirius and Bec, and the not happening of Remus and Bec.
I too was shocked, but everything sort of makes sense. "He broke up with Em because Sirius loves Bec" I yelled.
"Oh my gosh" replied Lily "I just realized that too. And James don't say it too loud, someone might hear you. This is really bad James. Oh no. What will happen if the truth gets out?"
"I don't know Lil" I said, concern and worry apparent in my voice "But the truth always comes out eventually"
"Oh James" sobbed Lily "This will tear everyone apart"
"Not you and me though" I added confidently.
Lily and I walked to the tower silently. I was her support, kind of like a human pillar, she leaned against me as we walked. I don't think she could handle the truth about her two best friends and my best friend. I could barely come to terms with it. Those four girls were just as close as my friends and I, but I guess girl friendships are fragile and delicate, sometimes unrepairable.
Could 7 years of friendship be torn apart by love?
* QUIDDITCH TRAINING NEXT DAY *
Em POV
Where is our friggen Quidditch Captain James Potter? We've been waiting for him for 10 minutes already. That new Chaser from 2nd year, Angelo Spinnet, can't stop jumping up and down in anxiety. Our keeper, David Brown, won't stop pacing up and down. The other chasers, Patrick and Pauline (they're twins) Patil, won't stop bickering.
Here he comes. Oh no, look who's behind him. It's him.
I forgot, him and I are both beaters. We use to call each other B1 and B2, like Bananas in Pyjamas, this may sound stupid but, it just hurts seeing him and remembering these sort of things.
"Sorry guys" apologized James as he looked over at us "We had some trouble getting down here"
In other words him didn't want to see me.
"Patrick, you help Angelo with the basics. Pauline you can practice with David. I'm going to be thinking about the upcoming season, while siriusandempractisetogether" said James, mumbling the last part.
"Sorry Capt, what was the last part" I asked, my eyes full of contempt staring at him. He couldn't just make him and I talk.
"He said 'while Sirius and Em practice together'. I guess we have to follow orders" stated Sirius "Em you should know something"
"What?" I yelled "Did you cheat on my while we were goin out? Or are you gay or something?"
"No!" replied Sirius, his eyes were pleading, but my heart was too broken to think about how him felt.
"Then what is it? You didn't mean to hurt me. Can we just be friends? Can I just forget that you tore my beating heart from my breast and thrust it 100 miles into the earth? What, Sirius, WHAT?" I yelled as I stomped off to the Quidditch case to grab a bat and release one beater.
Him walked over to the case and got a bat also. The beater came flying straight towards me, I hit it as hard as I could to him, and he in return hit it high in the air. Both of us had remained on the ground, we forgot to mount our brooms.
It returned to me and I hit it to him again.
"Em, I'm sorry it didn't work" apologized Sirius as he hit the beater into the air.
"And sorry's suppose to what - " the bludger returned to me yet again, so I hit it to him again "forgive you or something"
He hit it into the air "Can we just be friends again?" he ducked as the bludger came back his way and was heading for me.
I hit it as hard as I could towards him "NO! I CAN'T BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE I – SOMEONE I – WHO I – WHO I – H A T E" I yelled and ran towards the castle.
He wrestled the bludger to the ground and returned it to its case, and then he looked at my retreating back.
He watched as my body grew smaller and smaller in the distance. He watched, as I cried and ran. He watched, as I hurt. He watched, as I stumbled over a rock. He watched, as the tears continued to roll down my face. He watched, not knowing how much pain I was feeling. He watched, just watched.
A/N – Hey guys, thanks for reading and reviewing. I had to use Sirius as him in this chapter because if I were Em I wouldn't be able to say his name. It sounds too melodramatic, but Em's a melodramatic kind of girl, not to mention a broken hearted girl.
How would you feel?
Anyway Review please, all kinds of criticism it welcome, just not too harsh.
