Later that day all the girls were in the common room, including a girl Odetta just recently met. Her name was Alice Fortescue.

They were all joking around, and laughing with each other before a familiar group of boys walked in.

"Oh look. They're here." Odetta says, emphasizing in the word "they're".

"Actually" James says before walking up to the group of girls.

"I have come here to apologize to my dear Lily-flower" he continues.

Odetta looks clearly shocked.

"James Potter? Apologizing? That's a first. But before I start anything, me and the girls are leaving. So you guys can have your alone time." Odetta states before getting up, and signaling the girls towards their shared dorm room.

Once they get up there Marlene says "Why did you drag us up here? I wanted to listen." She pouts.

"Well there's no point in spying if lily will just tell us about it later" Odetta says.

"True." Alice replied.

Meanwhile with Lily

"So" James starts, while walking towards Lily.

"So?" She says while crossing her arms.

"As you already know, I want to apologize for being a dick. I'm sorry, and I won't do it again." He has a look of regret on his face.

Lily lightly smiles.

"Apology accepted." The redheaded girl starts.

"Yes!" James says to himself.

"But."

"But?"

"But." She starts again, while James looks confused.

"I want you to apologize to Odetta."

"What? Why?" He asks, confused.

"For being such a dick to her all these years. I don't mind you liking me or whatever, but what I do mind is that you're a prick to my best friend, and then you want to act all lovey dovey with me! Things don't work that way." Lily says.

"So you won't accept my apology until I apologize to Odetta?"

"Yes."

"That's all?"

"Yes."

"Okay then" James says, looking shocked because he'd never expected that he would have to do something so easy. He decided he would do it later, and not right then.

Later that night, the girls were all hanging out in their dorm when Dorcas got an idea.

"Hey guysss" She starts.

"Oh no" lily says while doing a facepalm.

"We should have a little party. Just us and the boys. Doesn't that sound fun? Drinking to our first night at Hogwarts?"

"No way. No." Lily says.

"Well I mean.. that sounds nice" Alice chimes in.

"I agree" Marlene says in reply.

"It's up to you Odetta" Dorcas says.

She thinks about it for a moment before finally answering.
