New story!!! Yay!! claps for herself My internet was dead... and I got bored. ) have fun reading!!

Sitting in her dorm one night, Lily became aware of a tapping noise at her window. Opening it up to allow a handsome barn owl to fly into her room, it dropped a piece of paper onto her bed it turned and took flight out of the window. Lily picked up the paper and read:

Lily, darling, will you go out with me? PLEASE SAY YES THIS TIME!! xxx James 3

JAMES!! I've said no no no NO NO NOO!!!

Get that in your idiot head of yours! L. Evans

C'mon Lily baby, one date??!! I LOVE YOU!! –James 3

NO!!(Lily threw down the parchment and stormed from her dorm room. James looked sadly down at the parchment he was holding, but then new writing formed the words ;)

Prongs mate,

GIVE UP!! Your driving us all mad!

Lots of cuddly love, Padfoot

She said no again!!! Why me???????? –pRoNgS

Ermm cuz its YOU! If it had been me pronsie, the flower would be mine P don't take it badly mate… just kidding. S

Hello Prongs, Padfoot. Bad luck with Lily again? R. Lupin.

Of course I did.

Erm… yea he did Moony.

Right, well better luck next time! Bugger, class. Bye. –Moony

I've got to go too Sirius mate, see you later.

OI! I'm in the same class as you prick… Yea well bye…

The 3 boys got up from their different seats, Remus in the Common room. James in their dorm and Sirius… God knows where… .

Lily who luckily had Arithmancy found Remus quickly in a seat close to the front of the room. Sitting down she smiled at him and whispered, "Pencil Remus?" He always forgot one, only in this class though… Funny, Lily thought. Muttering thanks he took the pencil and switched his attention to the middle-age witch in front of them all.

After Lily had extracted herself from a fascinating discussion between Professor Gregorkins and a large hufflepuff, she looked down began reading chapters 3-4 in her textbook. Finishing quickly she glanced to her side delighted to see Remus staring into space.

Hey, fancy helping me a bit with something? –Lily

Of course Lily, what do you need? R.

Erm… well you see, it's about James. AndwhyIcantsayyestohim.

I thought it was merely because you disliked him?

Well it is, but there's another thing… I kinda like this other guy…and he's kind of close to James you see…

Lupin shot her a curious look, and scribbled down an answer.

Okay… assuming it's not Peter. It can be either me or Sirius. I'm thinking not-me.

Remus! Why wouldn't it be you? You're a lovely, good looking guy; you could get as many girls as James and Sirius if you tried!

As nice as you are Lily, I know it cannot be me because I show no interest in girls and you are aware of that. And you are hardly one for pining for what you can't have.

If I'm not one for pining after what I cant have why do I like Sirius then?! Lily scribbled angrily before chucking the parchment at Remus.

Sirius eh? insert quirked eyebrow Poor James.

Shut up. I feel bad enough, Remus what am I going to DO?

Well I could always hint to James that you've got your eye on someone else and then he'll realise it's a lost cause and move on. Find another girl… then Sirius is free for your taking.

As lovely, I mean LOVELY. As that sounds Remmy, you think James will give up cause I 'have my eye on another guy'?

Ok so I don't, but you needed something to make you feel better, don't worry Lils, it'll be fine… I'm sure of it.

Lily smiled down at the parchment and folded it carefully then placed it into a pocket on the inside of her robes. "Class dismissed!" Standing she took the pencil that Remus held out for her then dashed out of class.

Lily walked down the Hogwarts corridors clutching her books making her way to the great hall for lunch, on her way she saw James and Sirius exiting a classroom. Her gazed lingered on Sirius as she felt herself heat up while she examined his well built frame and groomed mop of dark hair. Obviously feeling her eyes Sirius turned and caught her gaze, he smirked cockily at her before turning his attention back to James. Lily sighed and continued walking past them, her mind full of Sirius. Things just couldn't stay this way, she was sick of hoping. Yes she did hope that Sirius Black, the young man that was infamously rumoured to have photo in the popular magazine Playwitch. Would look twice at her.

As she walked past them she heard someone calling her name, turning she saw James. "Go out with me Evans?" She looked at Sirius, he was grinning at his friend obviously expecting a No.

"I'll think about it."

And with that she walked off.
