Everyone pretended that night didn't happen.

Every so often, Frank would send a glare at Sirius, but that was it. Well, besides the fact that Alice and I have become friends. She helped me. Alice tried to worn me last year about Sirius. Sirius and I had awkward moments every now and then. He would smile at me, and I would give him a shy smile back. Remus and Jinxy had some sort of strange relationship. They talked and laughed. I thought Jinxy might have liked Remus.

Anyway, it was three days before the full moon in October when my werewolf symptoms started acting up. Remus's had as well. Remus had been preparing me for it, but it still didn't go well.

"Rani, you're dangerously hot, are you ok?" Lils asked one night. I nodded.

"Fine," I lied. Jinxy smiled at me. Remus Sat across from her, Sirius Sat across from me, and James across from Lily. Peter decided to sit next to James.

"Hey, Evans. Go out with me?" James smirked. Lils' face lit up. She looked as if she were going to say yes.

"No," she shoved her fork in her mouth and glared at James. Sirius nudged Remus.

"El," (he even came up with a nickname for her?!)" I was wondering if you would like to come to Hogsmed with me this weekend?" Jinxy almost coughed up her food. I patted her back.

"Oh, I...um-" Remus looked away.

"Remus! I'd love to!" She exclaimed. I looked at Lily with my mouth agape. Her face was exactly the same.

"Sooo, James. Did I make the Quidditch team?" I asked, batting my eyelashes. He sighed.

"Yes. You did. You've missed three practices already though. You'd better be great," he sighed.

"She already is! She's the best. Better than you are," snarled Lils. I giggled. Peter chuckled. Remus and Sirius 'ohhhhhh'd. It was extremely funny. Peter looked at someone, the stood up. What was he doing? He walked over to a girl. He came back smiling like a mad-man.

"I got a date!" He exclaimed. Everyone gasped.

"What?" We all hissed. He nodded.

"Wow man. That's just sad," Sirius sighed, shaking his head at James, "Wormtail can get a girl but you can't?"

"I don't see you having a date!" James hissed.

"That's cause I haven't asked her yet," Sirius smiled smugly. My face fell. He was asking someone else to go to Hogsmed with him? I guess I could go with Alice.........

"Rani! Lils! Jinxy! I got a date for Saturday!" Alice squealed.

"Great for you!" Lils hugged them.

"Who?" Jinxy and I asked.

"Well, I'm going with Frank," Alice giggled. I smiled. I expected that one. Maybe I'll go with Sev. Wait, he never goes. I guess I'll go alone...

"River," (that was Sirius's nickname for me), "I was wondering if you would like to accompany me to Hogsmed this Saturday? Along with you friends, of course." He winked at me. I almost died. I was in much shock, I fell backwards off the stool.

"I think you killed her,"

"Great going Padfoot. You killed her before you could get an answer,"

"Shut it, Moony. Keep your mouth shut, Prongs," someone growled. There as a lot of laughter. Mooney, Padfoot, Wormtail, and Prongs must be their nicknames.

"You ok, Rani?" Three people pulled/pushed me back up.

"Yes," I said, looking straight at Sirius. He gave a lopsided grin that made me giggle.
