James had been trying to get with Lily for ages. Years. Remus didn’t remember when it had started anymore, but it was just the status quo at this point. James fancied Lily, Lily ignored him, but no matter how many times she shot him down and no matter how many other girls tried to flirt with him he was adamant, it had to be Lily. Remus hadn’t really ever believed she would cave but when it had happened he had been delighted for his friend. He’d assumed Sirius would be too.
