Sirius swore, shaking his head as he stood staring at Remus, still aware of Lily shouting behind him, "Fine," he muttered, turning to the teenage girl at last, "Fine, Remus. Don't take any responisiblity..."
From that moment on, Sirius listened intently to Lily, ready to interrupt at several points - but refrained from doing so by the continued outburst. Even as the girl hinted at his... relationship... with Remus, he remained silent... but his dark eyes flamed immediately, burning brightly, anger fuelling the flames. Only when Lily was quiet once again did Sirius make any argument. "For the sake of Merlin!" The roar echoed down the corridoor, flashing past Anya before turning the corner and fading away. "Lily - I don't think he's had many other girls! And as for whatever bollocks you're on about... he only wanted me 'cos I said No.. you're thinking about Harry Bushall in Slytherin, not bloody James! He's liked you since he first saw you. Because you were nice, friendly. And then he did something you didn't like. And you hated him ever since- but he hasn't stopped liking you!"

Lily blinked, "You don't understand. I'm angry because ... don't worry, you'd never understand." She said quietly before jumping at the sound of a very familiar female voice. Damn it! Anya was here? No, not now.

Remus froze. He'd thought things had been bad, but now they had just got worse. "Anya.. Anya go away." What would happen if Anya found out? Well, it wouldn't be very good, that's for sure. He glared shortly at Sirius. "I /would/ take responsibility, Sirius, were you not jumping to conclusions." He snarled, eyes still blazing, striding slowly towards Lily and Sirius.

"No," she snapped. "Someone tell me what the hell is going on here! I have a right to know!" Well OK maybe she didn't. But that was besides the point.

Sirius began to back away as Remus approached him, "I'm jumping to know conclusions," he replied as he moved, arms spread wide, "I'm just referring to what I saw! And if you don't want me to talk about it, fine! I don't want to fall out with you over it... And Lily... No. You're right. I don't understand. And neither will James unless you tell him!"
Sighing, Sirius sank to the floor, ignoring the words enshrouding him and simply crossing his legs and miming the action of zipping his mouth. He looked helplessly up at Anya but shook his head, tresses flying everywhere.

Anya glared at Lily. "If soemone doesn't tell me whats going on, I'm going to be forced to believe that the slut who was once my friend was kissing the one person I love. Hopefully I'm wrong. NOW SOMEONE SET IT STRAIGHT!" Anya yelled.

Remus remained silent, staring intently at Anya. But then he spoke- "Anya, don't call Lily that," He said firmly, in a rather teacher-like voice. "That's not very fair." Remus added, watching Anya, and then glancing at Lily then Sirius. He brushed back auburn locks, closing his eyes and sighing.

"Who said life was fair?" She said coldy. "Who ever did must have been drunk." Normaly she would be a bit calmer. But these things ALLWAYS seemed to happen during that time of the month, if you know what I mean.

"Anya," Remus sighed. "You don't even know what happened. So don't go 'round calling people names before you know the whole thing." He added, glaring slightly at all those around him. "And you don't need to take that tone of voice with me, either."

"Well then explain to me what happened. And if I'm wrong, I'll appologize. Just someone explain to me. Please!"

"I don't /want/ to tell you, Anya," Remus sighed. Amber eyes downcast, as Remus scratched the back of his head, shaking it as well. He glanced at Sirius through half-closed eyes, and his stomach leapt. He didn't want to be here, he didn't want to have to have this conversation with all these people.

"Well we can't have everything we want, can we Remus? If you don't tell me, then I'll believe forever what I said. And I don't think you want that either do you?" She couldn't believe she was being so harsh on Remus! Maybe Celestia was right. She didn't deserve anyone.

"Anya...I." Lily paused, how was she meant to say it, her jaw dropped several times during Remus and Anya's conversation. The words spewing from the girl's mouth couldn't of been hers, they were too harsh. They didn't come from her best friend, did they? This wasn't fair, Anya was supposed to be comforting Lily now about the Potter incident, why had she kissed Remus? Now she'd ruined everything, and with everyone. "Anya I...I kissed Remus. I'm sorry." She said simply as her eyes refused to meet with the angry girls' across from her. What else was there to say? She had kissed him and she was sorry, and she was not going to tell Anya why in front of Black.
Her emerald eyes darted to the crouched Sirius and her eyes narrowed. Taking a deep breath, Lily knew she had to clear this up, maybe Sirius wouldn't be so harsh on them both if he knew why she was upset. But then wouldn't he just throw it back in her face later? What the hell...."If I tell you, then you can't tell Potter. Promise that you won't say and then I'll tell you why." She said quietly, wishing she'd shut up and just stayed in bed the whole day, that way she wouldn't of succeeded in hurting about five individuals. Curse words began to ring around her head as she looked back to the floor.

Sirius looked up sharply, his resolutions of silence broken. "Depends what it is," Sirius remarked, looking straight at Lily, before a plan formed in his mind. "Actually, no... scratch that. You've kept my secrets in the past... I'llkeep yours now..."
Sirius squirmed guiltily as he thought about what he was going to do, "I promise I won't say anything to James."

Narrowing her eyes in suspicion, she finally let up. She had to explain why she had kissed Remus so he, and herself, wouldn't be in so much trouble. Breathing deeply Lily looked away from Sirius' face as she mumbled quietly, "I was, errr, looking for Jame - Potter, to tell him, to tell him that he was an okay guy, you know?" She seriously hoped he would understand what she meant without her saying it. "And that maybe I should give him a chance."
Bringing her eyes up to meet with Sirius' she felt them well up again but refused to cry. "That's when I saw them and realised I was right. I put up barriers to try and stop this sort of thing from happening, block it out so it wouldn't hurt. I promised I wouldn't fall for his 'charms' and I wouldn't be a conquest. But then I liked him and my heart got hurt, again. See, as soon as I'd stopped putting up walls and started to like him he dropped me and went for another girl. So I was right, that's why it hurt so much, that's why Remus and I...so that's why I said those things Sirius. Not because it was Potter kissing a girl, but because it was James and he was too far for me to reach and...and I was right."
She said her little speech quietly and lowered her eyes to the ground and biting her lip to stop it from quivering. Why had she told Sirius that? Why? Now he'd hold it over her forever, why didn't she just shut up while she was ahead? Maybe it would've been better if a black hole had just swallowed her up, or the squid had pulled her into the lake, anything rather than say that in front of Remus, Sirius and Anya.
