THANK YOU SO MUCH... I actually was a little scared that you got mad lol, so I'm really glad that you liked it.

that's so cool, I never go (fake) married with a paper ring :(

@werewolfadmirer here ya go! it's currently one in the morning but i wanted to get this done :) (it's probably not great but who cares)

HOW TO KISS EVERYONE IN YOUR FRIEND GROUP AND GET AWAY WITH IT

First year, they didn't care about kissing in the slightest. All James and Sirius wanted was to have fun, all Remus wanted was "some fucking quiet!", and all Peter wanted was for Remus to stop swearing so much.

Sure, Marlene, Lily, and Mary were all right, and Bellatrix threatened to hex Sirius into next week when they passed her in the corridor sometimes, but there was never any talk of snogging. There was no talk of fancying one another, no initials carved into tree trunks inside crude hearts.

Second year, things got a little bit different. They still had each other, and they had sworn that they would always have each other. But other things started happening in second year at Hogwarts. James and Sirius could practically read each other's minds by that point, and Peter had discovered chess.

All of this left Remus feeling sort of outside. He didn't have anyone- or anything, really- to rely on like that, and one night, that all came spilling out.

It was after the first big Quidditch match with Slytherin, because, well, of course it was. Gryffindor had won. Sirius and James spent the evening celebrating, clinging onto each other excitedly, stuffing their faces with sausage roll after sausage roll. And while he wasn't on the team, Peter was glowing with excitement too.

It was past midnight when the four of them finally went to their dorm, three of them buzzing with joy and the fourth a sulky mess.

"Oh, c'mon, what's the matter with you?" Sirius asked cheerily, ruffling Remus's hair.

"Fuck off, Pads," He growled in response. Sirius opened his mouth to snap something back, more than ready to bicker with Remus again, when James stepped in, calmly instructing Sirius to fuck off.

"Lupin? Are you ok?" James asked gently, sitting down next to Remus. In the background, Peter and Sirius were having a pillow fight- the point is, they were distracted.

Remus nodded, staring at James's lips and feeling strangely warm. James noticed.

"Want me to take your mind off things?" He asked, voice low and kind and toffee-flavoured and so very James Potter that Remus couldn't help but nod again.

James leaned in, and Remus awkwardly followed suit, resulting in a brief, warm, kiss, that was nothing if not an excellent first kiss. James had forgotten the next morning. It was just a dumb, sweet way to cheer up his friend, right? Remus, however, spent the next few weeks thinking about every little thing James did before it wore off and he went back to his usual, sarcastic self.

Third year, there wasn't much new on the kissing front. The other boys had begun teasing James about the way he acted around Lily.

"Obsession, that's what it is," Sirius said.

"More like infatuation." Was Remus's reply.

"It's bloody Lilymania," Peter scoffed, earning him a mocking "language!" from his chums.

But it was all good fun. Nothing ever really happened there.

Fourth year was Sirius's turn. It was a birthday party- of course. Loud, colourful, cake and presents and far too much regurgitated alcohol for a 14-year-old's birthday.

It all happened very fast. Just an "oi, James, your glasses are fucking adorable, c'mere!", and then lips colliding with his and the sharp sting of something alcoholic.

James remembers breaking away, smiling, crashing back into Sirius's smug mouth. Sirius remembers waking up the next morning, the headache, the thrill of drunkenly kissing his best friend. They kept up like that for two months before agreeing that they were really just meant to be best friends, however fun the snogging was.

That was the start of something, though. All of a sudden, both of them started turning up all over the castle with various girls in various states of undress. Remus shook his head fondly while Sirius recounted his sexual adventures, and Peter listened entusiastically whenever James introduced the group to his new girlfriend.

Fifth year went by in a similar fashion. Lots of girls, plenty of sneaking about. Detentions for all of them. Remus, who had hit a growth spurt that summer, started getting looks too. Well, more looks than usual. He ignored all of them. Peter trailed after the three of them, pretending to be happy in his singleness.

Peter congratulated the two outgoing boys when they told him how far they had gotten with some girl or other. He listened when Remus told him about how pretty Sirius looked under the moonlight, how we would never dare tell him. His heart ached and he laughed. His heart broke watching the boy he liked fall for a hundred different pretty girls and he greeted every one one of them with a charming gap-toothed smile and a "hello".

Sixth year, Peter couldn't take it any more. A rainy morning on the Quidditch field was when he snapped. He was sitting in the stands, umbrella above his head, watching as James showed off and did laps around the field.

"Bet Juliette likes it when you do that," He muttered.

"What's that, Wormy?" James shouted, flying closer to where Peter was sulking. Peter hesitated for a moment, and he wasn't quite sure why he did it, but he decided to tell James everything.

Maybe it was the rain, maybe it was the cold, maybe it was how good James looked in his quidditch robes, but Peter found himself babbling about how he had liked James since forever, and how James was so careless, and how he knew that James had kissed both Remus and Sirius, and how it made him so bloody sad that he'd never be enough-

James cut him off with a kiss.

"Peter, mate-" James said, breaking away and climbing down from his broom. "I don't want you to be sad. I'll break up with Juliette for you if you want."

"Yeah, and then what? Go back to that other skank? I don't care, James, just fuck off, I know we'll only ever be just mates. Sorry."

"We don't have to be just mates, though."

From that day forth, Peter looked at James like the very sun shone from his eyes.

Seventh year, Peter and James were a thing. Seventh year, Remus finally told Sirius how he felt. Seventh year, all James and Sirius wanted was for their respective boyfriends to be happy, all Remus wanted was to see Sirius smile like that, and all Peter wanted was to keep his James safe.

The end??

Yes the end, because noting bad never happened, they got married and everyone was happy.

I'm actually going to add something because I want too and I have free will :

I like shiny things, but I'd marry you with paper ring / Uh-huh, that's right

Lily Evans, was seventeen years old and she didn’t want to hope anymore. She didn’t want to hope about them finishing their life together. She didn’t want to hope that they loved her too.

But still, Lily Evans hoped ; she hoped for an impossible love… Because the hearts she wanted were already taken, had been taken since they were eleven years old and freshly at Hogwarts.

She knew the way that Peter looked at James every single day since they were eleven years old, she knew the way that James looked at Peter every single day since they were eleven. It was a look of devotion and pure love, it was the kind of way her mother used to look at her father, before the car accident. It was the kind of love that she wanted to have, it was the kind of why that she wanted them to look at her.

She had fallen in love with them very differently, for Peter it had been quiet, playing chess and exchanging gossip around the fire. It had been going steal Mary's cookies, back when they were together. It was comforting him when the thoughts started to eat him alive. (Now, it was James that confronted him and Peter didn't come to her when he needed help.)

For James is had been loud, just like he was. She was thirteen years old and he used to like her. They would walk in school and talk loudly together, taking all the space in the world because with him she had the impression she could do that - she was invincible. It was screaming when Gryffindor won matches, and kissing in common room to put a spectacle to the boys that were calling her a slut. It was jokes and noice.

Peter aloud her to be quiet, to like the quiet, calms moments in the swings talking in the wind. While James aloud her to be as loud that she wanted, very far away of the voice of her sister telling her not embarrass herself in front of those important people. And Lily Evans, she needed them both and she couldn't have neither.

It was their last year of school, their last six months of school and then they would be adults, and they won't be Hogwarts students anymore, and Lily Evans she was freaking out.

She was in her bed, at her side Severus that was annotating his potions books, why he was doing this, she didn't dare to ask in fear that it would lead to a complain about the book, Slughorn or the entirety of the members of education (not that she didn't agree with the last point.)

" Severus... Sev, Severus. SEVERUS, listen to me ! " The boy finally drops his work to look at her, extended in her bed. She had been complaining about the fact that she would end her life alone because James and Peter were dating and she would never fall in love with someone else. Severus had been ignoring her wines for a while : " They are going to marry each other and I'm going to be all alone. "

Severus had signs when she had been talking, and finally says : " Just confess to them, they like you. "

" How do you know ? " She asked.

" Because I'm not stupid. " He answers.

" Comparably to me ? " She sends back.

" Yes. " He simply says before going back to his work.

Lily stays in silence for a long time. Form one part, she was dying to date them (both of them, she didn't want only one of them, she never had wanted only one of them.) From the other well : " Either way, they are happy like this, they are my friends and I don't want to fuck up their relationship because I'm having a little bit of issues, that should be worked one. Also, I don't know how to do that. How to confess to them, something like that."

The polish boy doesn't answers, he was focused into finding a solution for getting the money that he needed to become a potion master. Under his breath, he whispers : " Maybe, I should become a prostitute. I'm hot enough and people don't really care about your money, if you fuck well. " The rest of the evening is spend of Lily trying to convince Sev that being a prostitute is in fact a bad idea.

The next week, she finds a piece of paper sticked in her mirror that said.

HOW TO ASK OUT BOYS THAT ARE DATING EACH OTHER : 1. Talk to his friends for advice. 2. Stop by the library. 3. Go for it.

Lily was actually impressed by the advice. Of course it was written in a super sarcastic way, because well it was from Sev. (Lily actually wasn't sure if he had given someone advice without being a completely asshole about it, ever in his life.) But it was good advice, something Tuney, no Petunia, would have said if she actually still cared about Lily and her life. (If Petunia actually decided not to be so uptight about everything and following the rules of the society so much.)

First Lily decides to go talk to Remus, after all he could have some helpful information about what the hell do. (She wasn't sure if she was going to tell them, no she wasn't going to tell them. It was going to end badly after all and she didn't need in her life right now. But it could help to collect data just for the fun.)

" Hey, Remus." She says while she arrives in the table that the brown haired boy is sited in the library. " What would you do if you were me and you were in love with Peter and James, and you know that they loved each other and they were going to marry each other. But that your best friend told you to do something about it. It being asking them out. How and why would you do it."

" Okay, so first of all this is a lot of information in the same time. One : You are in love with Peter and James (at the same time, not that I'm judging you obviously.)" No, that would be fucking hypocritical of you. She thinks. Remus then says : " So low key, I think you should tell them. Why ? Because they both like you and it would be a waste of time not to do it."

Lily hums, she knew that they didn't like her but it felt nice that other people thought that it wasn't the case. She wished, she could be delusional but she knew that it would hurt her if she did that. She couldn't forget the true, or she would end destroyed. The wolfish boy continue by saying : " Here's what I think you should do. Invite them to an outing, don't say date. Then, the three of you have a great time and then at the end you confess to them."

Lily asks : " Why are you so convinced that they like me too. "

" Love, I have eyes. I am sure that they like you. But in the case they don't, you and Severus can come at we can do a sleep over and eat a lot of ice cream in front of a movie, I promise. " He answers with a sweet smile, at the thought of spending time with Sev.

" You sure you are not using me to hang out with Sevy ? You know that you can just ask him to hang out with you, right. I'm sure that he will say yes. He loves hanging out with you. " He loves you. She thinks, silently laughing at her best friend love problems. He was so fucking obvious.

Remus hums, while blushing a little bit. " I don't want to impose myself. " He says quietly, then he continues by saying. " I'm sure you go this, go win their heart, little redheaded doll. "

Lily stays with the other boy for a little while, before getting up to see the second and last person in her list : Sirius Black. While Remus was Peter's best friend, Sirius was James's. She finds him at the lake, scrutinizing form afar Severus that was talking with Dorcas Meadowes. " Creepy. " She says, while she arrives at his side : " You could just go talk to him, instead of trying to murder Dorcas with your eyes. They are just friends, you know. Either way, Dorcas is a lesbian so I highly doubt that she likes Sev."

" Fuck off Evans. I don't need you judging me, what are you even going to do tell him. He already hates my guts. " Lily looks at him and says : " He doesn't, but I don't really have the time to explain the inter work of Severus Snape, it will take way much time and I don't want to talk about his fucking asshole of a father. Go to your brother, I am sure that he knows way more than me, or maybe to Pandora. I know that you are more unlikely to curse each other before even starting to talk. "

" Why are you like this ? » The boy asks, without looking at her. Still observing where Severus and Dorcas are. They are now playing with stones and trying to do ricochet. " I simply know too much and I like to learn, talking about learning I need your help. I am thinking about confessing to James and Peter that I like them, Severus and Remus kinda forced me. " If she convinced herself, that she didn't have an other choice ; That it was the only think to do, she would have less difficulty to do it. " I need to know your opinion on how should I do it. " She continues.

Sirius answers, unfazed about what she just told him : " They are both fucking romantics, flowers and sweets. Bring them to the place that you like the most. Be clear about the fact that this is a date and not a friendly hang out. Don't let them have the impression that you are third rolling them, but that you want to BE with them. "

" You surprisingly give goods advices… Thanks for the help Sirius. " She says with a smile. Then she takes his hand, and in a moment of surprise she drags him across the lawn to where Dorcas and Severus are. When they arrive, her hand still in his wrist, she says : " Hey Sev. "

" Hey Lily. Hello Sirius. " In the side Dorcas is silently laughing at the boys. Sirius had been in chock for at least a minute, mouth just a little bit open and looking like he wasn't sure what he was suppose to do. Then he had taken the control of himself again, had arrange his hair and was flashing at Severus his I most have you smirk. Severus obviously had noted absolutely anything.

" What are you doing here. " The polish child asks. " I was asking Sirius advice for the thing you told me to do. " Lily answers not wanting for Dorcas to know what she was talking about. " You are going to do it ? " Severus asks incredulous. " Yeah, I mean what I have to lose, that isn't their friendship and my dignity. "

" Pretty sure that you can't call this dignity, it just fear. Are you an Gryffindor or not ? Because if you really are an Gryffindor you would do it, without thinking about the consequences. " Sirius finally enters in the conversation.

Severus retorts : " You know, this is my problem with your house. You always do something without thinking about the consequences and when someone gets hurt or something bad happens, you are surprised. " The arguments fade while she walks in direction of the castle, by her side Dorcas, letting the two boys all alone to argument about house and whatever they wanted to talk about.

She spends the next of the week perfecting her plan, going to the library and harassing Remus, Sirius and the others. She talks to everyone, Marlene and Mary - that is super happy for her, that she finally is ready to make a move after years of winning about it. They had stayed friends after the breakup, because it had been mutual. - Severus and his friends, Regulus, Pandora - that she adore with all her heart, she used to have a mini crush in the girl when she as younger. - Barty and Evan - that had given her some insane ideas, but form how the others had reacted maybe this was just the way they were - and of course Dorcas - that had spend way to much time talking about her girlfriend Marlene. -

After the third day, she had come around at the fact that she was in fact doing this. She was no longer scared of the consequence. In fact, she had channeled her inter Gryffindor and had accept that this was going to happen and that it would go well.

The Friday the 16 of January, Lily Evans sends a letter to Peter Pettigrew and James Potter, that said :

Dear James & Dear Peter. I am writing (because I can panic by paper and nobody will every know) because I needed to ask you something. I would like to invite the both of you on a date, at the forbidden forest this afternoon. Please come back to me. With love, Lily Evans Jones

The letters comes back in the start at the end of their first class with, an simple :

It will be with pleasure. Let's meet at 15 hours in the start of the forest. Love, Peter and James.

The rest the day happens quickly, suddenly it is 3 in the afternoon, and Lily is putting the last touches of her makeup, Mary and Marlene at her side helping her out while Severus was in the ground, a book in an hand and a pen in the other. The two girls send her away while telling her good luck, while Severus accompanies her out of the dorm, having said that he didn't want to spend time with the others girls without Lily.

At the door of the common room, they suddenly meet Remus that has himself a book in his hand. He looks at Severus and quietly says : " Hey Sev. How is it going ? Do you want to hang out, while waiting for the news of the others date. " Severus looks at the other boy and after a fews seconds says : " Yeah, why not. It could be fun. "

Remus says back : " Yeah, it will be fun, because I'm fun. " The polish boy looks at the brunet and with a smile says : " You know that is the same thing that someone saying that you are a nerd and you saying, no, I'm not, right ? "

Severus kisses Lily check and both of them stop talking one second to tell her good luck, before going back to their discussion. She leaves as Remus says : « No, it’s not." The redhead walks all the way to the forest with nerves eating her up and annoying questions popping in her head such as what if they don't show up ?

She arrives, soon after as she was almost going to turn over and there they are. James is playing with something in his hands while Peter is looking at the ground and examining what seems to be a flower. She kinda wants to stay here for the rest of her life, not having to more or to deal with the fact that they both knew that she liked them, that they were going to a date. But then, James sees her and the magic breaks and she starts to walk in their direction.

" Hey. " She whispers as the arrives in front of them, Peter was still kneeled in one knee observing what she could know see was an butterfly in a flower and form some reason, she decides to say : " Already, sweetheart ? Most people wait at least an year before proposing. "

Peter eyes start shining and with a smile he says : " Got it, in one year, I'll ask you to marry me, Miss Evans. " Lily nods with the biggest smile and says : " You better. " James was smiling at both of them with the most amazed smile possible and after a beat says : " Hey Lils. "

" Hey Jam. " She says back, it felt stupid, everything about this day had felt stupid, but still she was happy about it. It felt right, so fucking right.

" So I got flowers and chocolate obviously. " She says with a smile, as she approaches closers to them. She hands at both of them a bouquet of flowers, that included petunias. They had been always been her favourite and still were even after everything. (Still were even if Petunia hated her now. Because maybe, just maybe they could come back to what they used to be.) They both tell her thanks, Peter kissing sweetly her check. She looks at James just to make sure that he wasn't mad that his boyfriend was kissing a girl, even if it was in the check, in front of him. But the other boy was simply beaming at the thought form being here, he didn't even seems unfazed about it.

She says : " Should we go. " James hums and takes the picnic basket that was at his feet and the three enter in the Forbidden Forest. The rest happens very sweetly, times seems to stop...

At some point, Peter makes her a paper ring and tells her that he didn't want to wait an other year to marry her. She laughs and they both decide to marry right now and there. She gets up and Peter takes her hand and drags her at the middle of the clearing. James that had been in his back just looking at them, gets up and says that he would officiate the weeding. He starts to talk :

" Miss Lily Evans Jones will you take Mister Peter Owen Pettigrew as your lawfully weeded husband. "

" Yes. " She says with the most breathtaking smile in the world. A little bit of her wanted to laugh but the bigger part of her new that she couldn't, it would break the magic of the moment.

" Mister Peter Owen Pettigrew will you take Miss Lily Evans Jones as your lawfully weeded wife. "

" Yes. " Answers the other boy, he didn't seem having to think about this, he just had answer. The second that Peter had answers, they had both looked at James - that was still smiling, still having fun even if he had technically married his boyfriend and a girl. Under James watching eyes, Peter and Lily exchange paper rings.

James says : " By the powers that are conferred to me by the ministry of magic, I declare you husband and wife. " He looks at Peter and says : " You may kiss the bride. "

And Peter, because he was Peter, slowly walks in her direction and slowly approaches her, Lily knows that he is going to kiss her, puts her hand in front of his face, to stop him. " Stop. " She says, screams… " You shouldn't do this, your boyfriend is literally in front of you. And, I'm in love with you. Well both of you, and I really had fun with you guys and I want this to be an date... "

She is interrupted by Peter that very calmly tells her : " One, yes I know that you are in love with us. Two, this is a date and generally people kiss in dates. I'm not James, I don't kiss all my friends... I just kiss my boyfriend and my future, I hope, girlfriend. Now, can I kiss you ?" Lily slowly nods and Peter slowly takes her hand away and kiss her.

One year and a half later, Peter will tell their weeding guests how technically Lily and him were already wed and would tell the story about their first date and the weeding that had happened that afternoon, while James smiled at his side and Lily silently laughs embarrassed of her older self comportment and obviousness (how could she not know that those wonderful boys, that were now her husbands, were in love with her.)

While Petunia, the only biological family that she had left, smiled at her sweetly, with Severus at her side, and her baby in her lap. And the rest of her family all around : Sirius and Remus that had gone in a date with Severus a fews weeks after her and James and Peter, and now were all dating. Mary and her boyfriend, a wonderful boy that cared a lot about her. Marlene and Dorcas, that were still as strong that when they were at school. And of course, Pandora and Xeno - that literally matched each other freak. Barty and Evan that were still being a little too bit insane for her, but that she loved dearly. And Regulus and the boy that he was going to marry. Lily Evans Jones was happy at the side of her husbands and her family. They were the only things that she needed.

THE END

I had so much fun writing this :) Anyway, I hope that everyone loved it, I have no idea how the hell I wrote this much, but anyway. The idea for the paper ring music came in the end, so it's not present in all the text but it's present a little bit and I love it. Have a nice day/night and love you all. (Hope the angst wasn't too bad lol. It was not suppose to have to much angst but you know me.)
