CHAPTER THIRTEEN: THE BREAKUP
"So how are you doing your hair for the dance?" Haley asked over breakfast the next day before the guys got there.
"I don't know yet," Megan said, "I'm thinking, stick straight or loose curls. What about you, Hales?"
"I'm thinking up-do," Haley said. "Lil?"
"I'm doing curls," Lily said.
"Cute," Megan said.
The boys sat down at their usual places.
"Hello, ladies," Sirius greeted them. He gave Megan a kiss on the cheek.
"Morning Hales." Remus greeted his girlfriend with a kiss on the lips. "Megan, Lily."
"Good morning, Lily, Megan, Haley," James said, cheerily.
"My, aren't we cheery today," Haley said to James.
"Well I have reasons to be happy," James said.
"Who did you snog?" Megan asked with a big smile on her face.
James glanced at Lily. "Uh . . . someone really special to me."
Lily smiled to herself. She moved her right hand, which was on the bench, slightly over to James' hand. James looked down at his hand then up at Lily and smiled at her. James' (A/N: hehe, I did it!) hand was warm. Lily's hand was small compared to James'. (HA! Mr. Brauns! I did it AGAIN!!!)
"It was Lily," Sirius said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Duh," Haley said.
"Lily and James snogged? When did this happen?" Peter asked.
"Last night," James said. And it was perfect, James thought about adding.
A blush crept up on Lily's cheeks.
"So Lily, Prongs won't tell me anything about the kiss," Sirius said. Lily took a sip of her drink as the others started eating. "There was tongue, wasn't there?" Peter cringed.
Haley stifled a laugh. Megan dropped her fork, her mouth dropped, she looked at Sirius. Lily coughed. Her eyes widened. "Excuse me?" Lily said a little louder than her normal voice.
"Prongs gave you tongue didn't he?" Sirius said.
Lily looked at James, slight shock on her face. "What did Prongs tell you exactly?" She looked back at Sirius.
"I didn't tell him that, Lils, I swear," James said.
"He didn't tell me much, just that you kissed," Sirius said, ignoring James. "I just wanted to know if he was with holding information. I mean, it's not really James' style to not do that."
James looked around the room, avoiding any eye contact. Finally, he couldn't take it; he looked at his friends and Lily's friends. He finally looked to Remus for help.
"Sirius, maybe Lily doesn't want to hear about James' past relationships," Remus said.
"Sirius, we didn't do that. All we did was kiss. Nothing more, nothing less," Lily said.
"Lil, I swear, I didn't tell him that -" James said.
"James," Lily cut him off, "I believe you. Sirius never said that you said that stuff."
James smiled but found himself thinking about French kissing Lily again. He looked away and finished eating his breakfast, one handed.
Haley stifled another laugh. Lily looked up at her.
"I'm sorry, I thought it was funny," Haley said. "I mean, he actually thought you would let James do that and if you did that you'd tell him! I find that very funny." Megan laughed.
"It is a bit funny," Megan said.
"No, it's not! It's embarrassing!" Lily said. "I don't want to tell Sirius what I do with guys. Just like I don't want to know what he does with girls."
"You're not the only one," Remus said.
"Well, James wouldn't tell me anything -" Sirius said.
"Because there wasn't anything to tell!" James said. "I told you all of it!"
"Do you guys tell each other everything you do with girls?" Megan asked, slightly disgusted.
"Uh, I refuse to answer on the grounds it might incriminate me," Sirius said.
"Sirius has been watching American cop shows," James explained.
"Ah, now I see," Lily said.
"So, Peter, did you ever ask that girl out?" Sirius asked Peter.
"She already has a date," Peter said.
"How do you know?" Sirius asked.
"When I asked her, her friends laughed and she told me that she already had a date," Peter said. "Then I'm pretty sure when she turned she started laughing with her friends."
"Tough break Petey," Sirius said.
"What a great friend you are," Lily said.
"I am! I am the greatest friend in the world," Sirius said.
"Yeah, and you don't have a big ego at all," Lily said, sarcastically.
"I'm sensing sarcasm again," Sirius said.
"Hon, it's a good thing your good looking," Megan said.
"Of course I'm good looking! I'm Sirius Black," Sirius said.
"Thanks, cuz we didn't know that," Haley said, rolling her eyes.
"And not cocky at all," Lily said.
"Confident, not cocky," Sirius said.
"Whatever you say Sirius," Megan said.
"Then I say you -" Sirius started.
"Don't even think about finishing that sentence," Megan said.
"H-Haley, can I talk to you, a-alone?" Remus said, nervously.
Haley looked around at her friends. Nothing good ever came after that. But maybe this time would be different.
"Sure," Haley said, quietly. They got up and walked out of the Great Hall.
Lily looked at Megan, a worried look on her face. Megan shrugged. Lily looked at James. He had a confused look on his face and shrugged at Lily also.
"What's going on?" Lily asked the boys.
"For once, I'm clueless," Sirius said.
Everyone was to worried and shocked of what Remus could be saying to comment. Peter, of course, was clueless to what was happening.
"You don't think he's breaking up with her do you?" Lily asked.
"No!" James said. "No!" He sounded more like he was trying to convince himself, more than the other people. Sirius leaned around Lily and tapped James on the shoulder. He whispered something in James' ear. "Um, I'll see you later, Lils."
"I'll meet up with you at class, Meg," Sirius said. The boys got up and left.
Lily looked at Megan again. "Should we go see what's up?"
"Oh-ho yeah," Megan said.
The girl's got up and headed for Gryffindor Tower. They went up to the girl's dormitory and found Haley crying on her bed. Their faces fell and their hearts sank.
"Hales, what happened?" Megan asked, sitting on the end of her bed.
Haley sniffed and shook her head.
"Come on Hales," Lily said, sitting next to Haley.
"H-he broke up w-with m-me," Haley said.
"Oh, honey," Lily said, hugging her friend. "Why?"
"I-I don't k-know," Haley said. "Why d-doesn't he l-like me? A-am I not g-good enough for h-him?"
"Of course you're good enough for him. But he obviously isn't good enough for you," Megan said.
"I r-really like him," Haley said.
"We know, sweetie," Lily said.
