Remus mutedly watched his surroundings as he poked at his food with his fork. He wasn't really that hungry.. he was just still groggy from the train ride. He hadn't noticed Peter's where-a-bouts in a while, or maybe he just didn't notice him sitting at the table with the rest of them. But that wasn't unusual.
He did notice that it didn't take Sirius long to start flirting with a girl, matter-of-fact being that they weren't even in the castle yet. There was a small partical in the back of his brain that wished, sometimes, that he was like Sirius with all the girls fluttering about him. Or maybe like James.. even though he may not be the best when it comes to relationship material, what with being stuck on Lily and all.
In deep thought, he barely even realized that Lily had been staring down at them, merely glaring at James as usual. He smiled at her in a polite way as in hoping she might glance away and talk to some of her friends as to not start something with James again.
