Lily: when are YOU going to buck up and get yourself a lay... from james potter that is?

Hmmmm, a bit outta my hands, I think.

Sadly.

I didn’t say that. You heard nothing.

Excerpt

“Oh, I didn’t mean that to sound mean,” Prudence added quickly. “I just meant—I know that he used to. He didn’t say so, but—I guess we could all guess as much. And I know that you must have known…”

“I…”

“A girl always knows,” Prudence interrupted softly, and Marlene broke off. 

-Chapter 32

donna are you in love with lathe?marly when are you going to tell adam that you love him?

Donna: Don’t make me laugh. I mean, yes, he’s obviously attractive, and compared to the silly immature blokes at Hogwarts he’s… but… no. Shut up. Go away.

Marlene: If I ever lose my mind. God, I mean I rejected the poor bloke. How much of an awful human being would I have to be to go after him now that he’s finally happy with a girl?

Excerpt, Chapter 32

Especially these patrols. This was her third time patrolling with him, and Lily was always left feeling guilty.

He had a girlfriend.

Couldn’t she just… just… forget that she fancied him? Then, spending time with him wouldn’t make her feel like—well, honestly, like the Carlotta to James’s Frank Longbottom.

Damn it all.

Perhaps she’d better steer clear of James Potter for a few days.

Mrs. Potter just how often does James talk about Lily Evans?

Not so much anymore.

And almost never directly to me.

But when he and Sirius were little tykes, they weren’t nearly as stealthy as they imagined…

So now that you have no friends, Carlotta, how do you spend your hours apart from your boyfriend?

Meditating and improving my mind, body, soul, and magical talents.

And I have friends, just… I mean… whatever.
