I love Lily
By: Hay Lin Felton
The Famous Marauders
"James! Hurry up or we'll never find a good compartment!" Sirius Black ran his hand trough his long dark hair and ignored the dreamy sighs of the sixth year girls who were huddled near him.
It was the first of September and they were already at Platform 9 ¾ along with the other Hogwarts students. They, being referred to as the famous Marauders, were Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and James Potter.
"Aw, keep your paws together, Padfoot," James retorted, not even bothering to turn to Sirius as he continued to look around, craning his neck as if looking for somebody.
Sirius rolled his eyes impatiently, "I'm going ahead," he said as he headed towards the big red train.
"Sirius, wait for me!" Peter quickly picked up his tattered suitcases and ran after Sirius, who continued walking to the train.
James still continued to scan the crowd until he found her. He smiled to himself.
Remus, who was busy with his book, looked at him briefly and shook his head knowingly.
The beautiful redhead finally walked to him and James seemed to be bewitched by her beauty.
"Hey, Lily," he said, trying to sound cool, as she passed by him only to be returned by a brief detached glance as if she didn't know him.
James however, smiled broadly.
"Are you quite done?" Remus asked, picking up his luggage and James nodded,
"Yeah. . . She's definitely into me," he said and Remus only shook his head.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Finally, you're here! I almost thought the train left without you," Sirius drawled as James and Remus entered their compartment.
"You know James," Remus shrugged and Sirius clicked his tongue and shook his head as if he's disappointed,
"You were stalking Evans again, weren't you?"
James snorted, "In her dreams,"
"Right," Sirius drawled sarcastically and Remus only shook his head as he sat down beside a sleeping Peter and opened his book,
"Hey, what's with Wormtail?" James gestured to Peter and Sirius shrugged uninterestedly, as he gazed outside the window as the scenery sped by,
"Beats me. He could be dead for all I know,"
James was about to add something when the compartment door slid open. Both he and Sirius turned to the door and James's smile broadened,
"Hi Lily," he said and Remus finally looked up from his book and smiled at Lily, who returned it warmly,
"Hey, Lily," he said
"Hi Remus," Lily spoke, "Well, I was just checking around and I guess this compartment's full," she shrugged, "Sorry for the interruption,"
"Wait! I mean, we could make room for one more," James offered eagerly as he watched Lily's beautiful bright green eyes brightening and her perfect lips curving into a smile,
"Really? You sure?" she looked at Sirius and he shrugged while Remus was back to his book,
"Yep, we're sure," James nodded eagerly and Lily looked relieved,
"I'm so glad," she said and before anyone could say a word, she ushered a pretty thin girl with dark brown curls and large blue eyes,
"Guys, this is Alicia Crit, and she'll be sharing your compartment," she smiled broadly, as Alicia eyed them shyly, blushing.
Sirius was eyeing her quite dangerously and James was still in state of surprise as Lily waved at them,
"Thanks for making room for Alicia guys," she said before heading out,
James stared at Sirius disbelievingly as his friend just smirked,
"In her dreams, huh?"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Did you see James? Oh my god! He's such a hot piece of. . ."
"And what about Sirius? Oh I could just. . ."
"Girls, please," Lily shook her head as she closed her novel carefully and eyed her two friends, "I don't think I could stand more of hearing about James Potter's 'yummy body' or Sirius Black's 'hot butt' and most certainly not about their 'undeniably great performance in bed'! I think I've heard enough of that since, I don't know, the last three years?" she added sarcastically,
"Goodness, Lil, you just don't know what we're talking about cause you're such a virgin! I swear, once you've tried James or Sirius, you won't get enough, trust me," Lila Spellman, a girl with long blonde hair, said
"I completely agree, Lil, you don't know what you're missing," her other friend, Sabrina Brown added, flipping her shoulder length brown hair, her dark eyes shining.
"Oh I think I know what I'm missing and frankly, I couldn't be gladder! I mean, how could you sleep with those obnoxious troublemakers?"
"Lil! They're famous and hot and really great!" Sabrina exclaimed and Lily just rolled her eyes,
"And I'm sure they're well aware of that," she said sarcastically, returning to her book
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
They arrived at Hogwarts just in time for dinner as usual, and they were now waiting for the sorting of the first years.
James snuck a look at Lily as she excitedly chatted with her two friends
"Hey, Prongs, check it out," Sirius whispered, gesturing over to the Ravenclaw table where a hot looking Chinese girl with long, straight, jet black hair was seated,
"What I would give to have a piece of her," Sirius said and James shook his head,
"Nah, she's not as good as she looks," he said casually and Sirius eyed him in surprise,
"Hey, what makes you say that? . . . Oh my god, James, when?"
James sighed audibly, "Last year. I think it was a week after midterms. Anyway, you were at the Astronomy tower that night, I think, " he shrugged,
"And you conveniently forgot to update me? I thought we were friends!"
"I guess it just slipped my mind," James mumbled as his gaze went back to Lily. She turned quickly at his direction and their eyes met for a moment before she turned to her friends again.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Don't look now, Lil, but James is staring at you," Lila whispered, looking at where the Marauders were seated
"What?" Lily turned sharply at his direction, and sure enough, James Potter was staring at her. Lily felt a rush of annoyance as she turned back to her friends,
"He's probably just spacing out, thinking of God knows what," she said dismissively as the first years entered and Professor McGonaggal positioned the hat on top of a stool and unrolled a piece of parchment and began calling out the names of the first years after it sang a new song.
"Lil, I mean it. I think James thinks you're hot," Lila whispered again and Lily tried to tune her out with no such luck,
"Li, he thinks every person with boobs are hot," she said flatly,
When the sorting was finished, Dumbledore made his usual announcements.
"I would like to remind everybody that the Forbidden Forest is out of bounds for all students, and I would like to congratulate our new Head Students. Our Head Girl, Ms. Emily Ridgley of Ravenclaw House,"
A loud applause came especially from the Ravenclaw table.
"And our Head Boy, from Slytherin house, Mr. Lucius Malfoy,"
A louder applause came, now from the Slytherin table.
"And now, let the feast begin!"
As the plates filled up, Lily's thoughts were still on James and suddenly felt self-conscious. She had noticed James staring at her and she knew that he has had a crush on her since first year when Remus told her as he delivered James's pathetic Valentine, but she hadn't told anyone, including her closest friends.
She slowly snuck a glance at him and found him laughing with his friends. She didn't know why, but she felt a bit disappointed that he wasn't looking anymore. She didn't like him at all. He is obnoxious, arrogant and mostly, he's a player. He probably lost his interest in her by now. But why was he staring at her?
Lily kept wondering.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The Gryffindor House common room was practically empty except for James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter huddled on one corner, Lily, Sabrina and Lila on the other corner and a few seventh years.
"Hey, did you see Snivelly's face when that dungbomb exploded in his seat? I thought I would die laughing!" James laughed as his friends laughed with him,
"I know! He's such a loser!" Sirius put in, laughing hard
Remus's laugh was the first to die down,
"Can you believe we're on our last year at Hogwarts?" he asked and the group fell silent
"I know, time seems to have flown so fast," Peter put in
Sirius was quiet for a moment but when he finally looked up at them, his eyes shone of that of mischief,
"Right. So this being our last year, I think it's the perfect time to make our mark, leave a legacy for our future generation to forever look up to,"
"That's great, but what more could we possibly do? I mean, we've practically done everything," Remus shrugged,
"Don't worry, we'll think of something. We have an entire year ahead of us," Sirius smiled menacingly.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The common room was already empty as Lily sat down at the couch and opened her romance novel. Somehow, she had trouble sleeping that night so she decided to read instead.
"Lily," a voice from behind her spoke and her heart leaped in surprise and as she turned and saw the owner of the voice, she sighed irritably,
"What are you doing here, Potter?" she asked irritably and James smiled pompously as he sat down beside her.
"I can't sleep,"
"Really? What a pity," she mumbled uninterestedly as she kept her eyes glued to the pages in her book as she pretended to read, and hopefully, he'd get the hint and leave
"So, what about you?" James asked, as he scooted nearer to her and at the same time, Lily tried to move away from him but she was already at the edge of the couch.
"Obviously, I'm trying to read," she said coldly, "Now if you'll excuse me," she motioned for him to leave but James didn't seem to take the hint.
"You're beautiful, you know that Lily?" he murmured, his face inching closer to hers and Lily could feel her heart pounding hard and she knew she should get out of there fast but her body seemed to be paralyzed.
"Um, James," she began but he cut her off,
"I just love the sound of my name on your lips, Lily," he said moving closer
Oh my god! He's going to kiss me! Leave, Lily, leave!
Lily's mind raced as she quickly stood up. James however didn't seem surprised at her reaction as he stared at her.
"I. . . I have to go to. . . bed," she stammered as she fumbled with her book nervously and James stood up, smiling,
"If you insist. Mine, or yours?" he drawled and Lily's temper flared,
"You are such a pervert, you know that, James Potter?" she exploded before storming up to her room.
The nerve of that arrogant little prat thinking that I would go to bed with him! How irritatingly arrogant!
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"That was quick. How'd it go?" Sirius asked as James entered the room.
"I'm tired," James said and Sirius grinned,
"Oh, it was that good?"
James just rolled his eyes irritably,
"I bet she stormed off the common room, didn't she Prongs?" Remus asked and James made a face,
"I'm not in the mood to talk right now so if you don't mind, I'm going to bed," James said as he stepped into his pajamas and climbed to the bed,
"Yep. I knew it," Remus said as James closed his bed curtains as the soundproofing charm did its job.
The next morning, they all got their class schedules at breakfast.
"Oh, man, this sucks!" Sirius complained as James glanced at his schedule,
"What are you talking about? We have the same classes,"
"I know but none of them are with the Slytherins," Sirius stated as James looked at his own schedule and nodded, frowning thoughtfully,
"You're right. It does suck,"
"What about History of Magic?" Peter said, pointing to the bottom of the schedule and James nodded,
"I know, but I heard Snivelly dropped that class for Advanced Potions. He's such a nerd," Sirius stated irritably, shaking his head, "I guess that prat finally got away from us,"
Peter just sighed.
"Hey guys!" a high-pitched voice came from behind them and when they turned to look at the owner, it was Lila Spellman.
"Hey, Li," James grinned. He and Sirius had already slept with her and he had to admit, she was pretty great. Easy, but great.
"So, what are you four up to?" she flashed her trademark seductive smile as Sirius answered coolly,
"Oh, nothing. Just having an innocent breakfast,"
"I'm sure," she said sarcastically
"Hey, Li. What about your friends? Where are they?" James asked and Sirius snorted
"Oh, Lily and Sabrina? They're coming. . ." she smiled, "Why do you ask?"
"Oh, nothing,"
"He just wants to ask Lily for a date," Remus supplied and James frowned,
"Nobody asked you, Moony!"
"Are you serious? I could ask her for you," Lila's eyes widened, as she smiled confidently, "Lily could never say 'no' to me,"
"Her and every guy in school, am I right, Li?" Sirius teased as Lila giggled,
"Not every guy, Sirius," she said before facing James again, "So should I ask her?"
"Well, I don't technically let anyone do the asking for me. . ."
"Just go ahead and ask her," Remus interrupted,
