Lily was surprised by his sudden change, but didn't question it. She grinned and took his arm. "I agree. The weather has been rather lovely lately. I want to take advantage of this strange warmth while we still can! Knowing our luck, the next couple of months will just be filled with rain and snow." She made a face. She liked winter, but the warmth of spring and summer were more to her liking.
It was nice to walk lazily through the courtyard on Sirius' arm. She couldn't help but roll her eyes at the girls who followed them with their eyes, turning to each other to giggle and whisper to themselves once they had passed.
"Your popularity with the girls is ridiculous sometimes," she said light heartedly. "I feel like we should walk a couple feet apart so news doesn't get back to James." While she had confided in Molly that she wasn't sure if she wanted to be anything official with James, she couldn't help feeling like she didn't want him to think she was fancying anyone else.
