James chills down his spine when Lily laced their fingers together. It was the worst form of torture the girl could ever put him through, and he groaned mentally as he thought of the fact that none of this was real.
It's a prank, James. A prank on your friends that probably won't last past this train ride. She doesn't want you. Not yet, anyway. Keep that all in mind...
He walked with Lily, hand in hand, down the hall, squeezing past the trolley and the still compartment-less kids. He finally came to the door of the compartment, gave one last look at Lily, raising his eyebrows and opening it, finding his friends in almost the same position as last time.
Marly was against the window on one side, all to herself, Sirius alone on the other side--Remus must be off doing his prefect duties--, and Peter....still not there. Apparently the trolley had come, though, seeing as they had a pile of goodies in their laps. Marly's head was facing the window as she chewed on a chocolate frog.
Her head snapped to the ''couple'', however, as they walked in. James smirked cheekily, sitting down beside Marly and pulling Lily down beside him, their hands still entwined. Marly finally noticed that and coughed on her chocolate frog, banging at her chest to stop choking. What the BLOODY hell?!
"Hello to you lot, too," he said, smiling at them, then Lily, looking around for a response.
Speechless.
The plan was going accordingly...

Lily smiled nervously, waving around at everyone. "Hi there," She draped her leg over the other, her foot rubbing against James' leg.

Sirius looked up from his sneaker, which he was examining closely. What's all this then? Evans and Prongs being nice to each other? He raised an eyebrow.

"James, darling, you want to tell them the big news?" Lily looked up at James with a giant smile.

"Whoa!" Sirius jumped up. "Big news? You can't be--James, what the hell, man?"

"Big news?" Marly coughed out, getting her composure. "Yes, James, darling, care to explain?" she asked sarcastically, giving him a weird look.
"Well, uh, you see....we worked things out in the hallway--I was comforting her and whatnot--and she finally saw the better in me and agreed to go out with me!" he said proudly, giving her hand a squeeze. "About time, right?"

"I guess there is much more in James then just... arrogance and berkness," Lily shrugged, giving James a kind smile. "Plus, his smile is to die for."

"James, what did you do to her?" Marly practically screamed, looking at them like they were crazy. "You hexed her, didn't you? Wait, did you slip her some love potion?!"
"I did not!" he defended. "I swear, I didn't do a thing but charm her! I told you she would fall for me sometime. Really, Marly, I'm not that cruel."

Sirius thought he might gag. "What the hell is going on?" he asked.

"In lament's terms, Sirius," Lily said slowly. "Me and James are an item. We're going out."

"Padfoot, mate, I at least thought you'd be happy for me!" he said, pretending to look hurt.
"Bully. You two are lying," Marly said, crossing her arms and shaking her head. "No bloody way in hell is this really happening. If you two are going out, I shagged Sirius."

"WHAT?!" Sirius exclaimed. "That's not fair! How can you do this to me, Prongs, you git!"

"What's not fair?" Lily frowned. "That he's got the only woman he's wanted for three years? How is that not fair?"

Sirius ignored Lily. "I thought we were friends!" he raged towards James. "And then...then y-you go and do....this without talking to me? How could you?!"

"I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING THAT I HAVEN'T BEEN DOING FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS!" he yelled, his brows crinkling in anger. "You're mad! You should be bloody happy for me, not...acting like a git! I finally got Lily to say yes, and you're going insane!"
