(well...that's weird. I guess chrissy was writing while i posted. Sorry...)
The three boys, Sirius Lupin and James, crowded around the girls exchanging pleasant greetings.
"The underwear stunt was great, which one of you thought that one up?" Cara grinned.
"Who's to say it was us?" Lupin asked suspiciously.
"Come now, i wasn't born yesterday, i know what you guys are up to under that invisibility cloak of yours." Cara said.
"She's got us there." Sirius confessed, "I did it."
"Oh did you..." Cara replied sarcastically, looking deep into Sirius' eyes. For a second they held eachothers gaze, but then Sirius broke off and looked at his feet. Peter had been observing the whole scene from a good 10 feet away.
The reason Peter was such a safe distance away was because of his secret crush on James' older sister, Cara. He had loved her sinse the first time he ever layed eyes on her, 1st year. From her dark brown hair to her magical green eyes, to him she was the perfect picture of all things good and true. He worshiped her from afar. And had begun many love-letters to her, that were never sent. But his friends had conviniently not noticed his obsession---erm---love. Now he stood outside of the group, to nervous to come too close to the goddess named Cara.
"Is you friend okay?" Cara asked James in a muted tone as she smiled and waved for Peter to join the circle. Peter widened his eyes at the gesture and his mouth opened up.
"Who? Peter? Yeah, he's always like that." James answered.
It was as if Peter had died and gone to some artificial universe. The one he loved had just waved AND smiled at him, in the same day! Still shocked he wadled over to the little group.
Lilly was playfully tugging on James' hair.
"When are you going to ever get this cut?" Lilly teasingly asked him.
"Hey." he replied, prying her hands off of his hair.
"You know, i could cut it for you." She offered, "My mum's a hair stylist."
James didn't answer he just smiled at her. It was a well known fact that Lilly was from a muggle family. Though some would be prejudice against her because of her family background, Lilly was the sweetest girl that ever graced Hogwarts, to James that is.
As the small group laughed and joked Peter stood starring at Cara, his eyes still wide and his mouth still open. The others didn't really notice, but Cara did.
"What is he doing?" Cara frantically whispered to James, who was to her right.
"Who?" James asked, still smiling at a joke Lupin had just told.
"That Peter kid." Cara answered, glancing back at Peter.
"Um...i'm not quite sure..." James admitted, frowning at the seemingly frozen Peter.
"Ex-excuse me, Peter is it?" Cara said to Peter. As if his transe had been broken Peter sprang back into life.
"Wha-what?" he murmured. But in his head he was excitedly thinking, 'she knows my name! SHE KNOWS MY NAME!!! WOO HOO!'
"Yeah, uh Peter, why were you starring at me?" she inquired, looking at him oddly.
"Oh, what? I didn't mean to stare i'm sorry." Peter apologize. He wanted to come up with something witty, something romantic to say to her. Something like 'I was gazing at the most beautiful creature that has ever graced this earth'. But it would have come out something like, 'Oh, i thought i saw a crow with a hat on over there...'
"Right..." Cara replied, returning to the conversation. But every once in a while she would peer over at Peter and see that he was yet again starring at her.
