Please Review! There will be more to come so stay tuned.

Lily did it, she was going into her seventh year at Hogwarts as Head Girl. She was extremely happy when the shiny badge had arrived with her letter from Hogwarts.

Lily stood on platform 9 ¾ with her family, all except Petunia because she was with her new husband. She and Vernon were the perfect couple; they both thought that Lily, and all wizards for that matter, were a freaks. Lily hadn't met Vernon yet, but she didn't think this was an accident.

"Oh Lily you are just going to have to write to us!" Her mother exclaimed with tears brimming her eyes.

"Mum I do every year don't I?"

"Yes, yes of course you do sweetie." She came over and gave her another hug.

"I love you mum," Lily told her trying to get out of her mother's tight grip. "See you dad." She added to her father. They exchanged one last hug and quick goodbyes. Lily turned and tugged her trunk up into the train.

It took several minutes before Lily found her three friends. Ivy Nestels, Mary Reeves, and Jamie Heart were sitting in compartment 11 talking about summer vacation. Jamie was the first to notice her entrance. Lily hulled her trunk onto the rack before asking about her friend's break. Only Ivy beat her to it.

"So how was your break Lily?"

"The same as usual. But guess what," Lily said, "Petunia got married during our exams last year and I wasn't even invited."

"Sounds like something Petunia would do." Mary said shaking her head.

"Yeah I guess. So how was your break?" Lily asked the others.

They all took turns to explaining their different adventures during break. Jamie had spent most of the time telling them about her new boyfriend, Cory Jameson who she meet at the end of last year. She talked about how they had sent millions of letters to each other. Ivy briefly told them of her vacation in Italy, "Dull with lots of rude French boys."

Lily jumped up remembering that she had to go to the prefect's compartment. Of course they already knew she was Head Girl.

On her way she was stopped by James Potter. Someone she despised openly.

"Excuse me," Lily said as politely as possible. He was standing right in her way, making it impossible to pass.

"After knowing you for this long I don't even get a hello." James sighed sadly.

"Hello James, now excuse me." Lily repeated already loosing patience. A cocky grin played on James's perfect face.

"The famous Lily Evans is calling me James?" James asked feigning astonishment.

"Yes. Now please excuse me." She said getting irritated, but this didn't seem to bother James.

"Leaving so soon?" He still had that stupid grin on his face as he stepped aside. Lily took a deep breath reminding herself that this was the year she would try to be nice to James.

"Wait a second." Lily said realizing he shouldn't have been in the corridor at all. But rather he would be inside his compartment with his arrogant friends. "What are you doing out in the hall?"

"Oh well you know… the others will probably be looking for me." James said, but he didn't sound at ease or mocking like he usually did.

"The others?" she asked raising an eye brow. "Why would they be looking for you in the hall?"

"What's that you've got there on your robes?" he said trying to distract her. "Is it the Head Girls badge?"

"Is there something you wanted Potter?" She demanded. He looked behind her.

"Okay we have to get out of the hall now." He said suddenly.

"Actually I'm on my way to the prefects..." But she didn't finish as he grabbed her arm and pulled me into his compartment.

"Oh what a pleasant surprise," Sirius Black said in his usually joking voice. But Lily wasn't amused.

"I saw her in the hall and I thought we could talk in here." James said looking outside the compartment window.

"What is wrong with you boys?" she demanded. Clearly they were up to something.

"NOTHING!" they both said in unison. Remus wasn't in the compartment, but in with the prefects. Peter was staring at his feet looking guilty.

"I don't have time for this." she said turning back to face the hall.

"NO!" They shouted again.

"It's just a hall!" she argued. They began rambling off excuses and trying to start up conversations about the weather. "Beside I've got to be somewhere." Lily pulled open the compartment door.

"But there's such a great view from in here!" Potter called from behind her.

"The prefects are such bores!" Sirius added. She ignored them walking out of their compartment. Suddenly there was a crashing noise from behind her along with screaming, rattling and whizzing. She turned her head not sure what she would see. But she knew it wouldn't be good.

The candy cart was barreling toward her at lightning speed. No one was steering it. Lily was horrified, completely frozen in place. Suddenly there was something throwing itself over her, pushing her against the wall. One minute the cart was coming at her, then something –or someone else- was and then she was pushed against the wall with none other than James pinning her there. Having saved her from a run-a-way candy cart.

"Excuse me." she said sounding like a mantra. Only the last time he was only in her way rather than crushing her.

"Sorry." He said not moving. Lily waiting a second eyeing the cart as it continued down the corridor. It was almost impossible not to stare.

"Could you, possibly get off me?" She demanded. He moved away running his hand through his hair. Lily was about to start back toward the prefects compartment when James fell on top of her.

Only this time it wasn't to save her, rather the old witch, that was chasing her candy cart, pushed into him. He crashed into Lily causing them both to topple over. To make matters worse: students were now staring at them wondering what all the commotion was about.

Above them they heard Sirius laughing. Lily sighed irritated. This was not her day. Potter stood up then offered her his hand. She ignored it completely.

"What no thank you?" he asked.

"No." She said marching away from him. Sirius was now howling with laughter, with his bark like laugh.

Lily heard something that sounded like a slap then complaints and finally someone asking what was going on.

Finally Lily sat in the Prefects compartment. She told the prefects the passwords, some information from Dumbledore along with patrolling schedules. When they were done everyone headed their own way. The Head Boy never showed up.

"So how was your summer?" Remus asked.

"Okay. Yours?"

"Not too horrible." He smiled. "So I heard that commotion. It wasn't too big a mess was it?"

"Wait, you knew it was going to happen?" Lily asked.

"Sort of," Remus admitted. "It was Padfoot and Prongs' big idea. I told them not to though."

"Of course." Lily sighed. "When will they grow up?"

"At the rate they're going?" Remus said, "Never." Lily laughed and Lupin smiled.

"You're probably right." Lily agreed.

"I wouldn't give up on them just yet." Remus advised.

"Why do you say that?"

"Let's just say they can't be kids forever." But much to Lupin's dismay Sirius and James ran out of their compartment jinxing each others robes. Sirius's now sparkled pink with silver lettering reading 'Slytherin Forever' with a big heart around it. And James was sporting a blue robe with twinkling lights and a bright orange afro, something Sirius also changed.

"Oh yeah. They'll grow up all right." Lily agreed. Remus shook his head looking down. He mumbled something about changing them back.

Lupin pulled his wand from his robes. "Honestly can't you act mature for five minutes?" But at that exact moment a jinx aimed for James hit Remus turning his head into that resembling a monkey. Sirius and James exchanged looks before rolling on the ground laughing.

Remus saw his reflection in the window. "Oh yeah very funny guys." Lily wished him luck before returning to her compartment. Before she left she heard Peter ask what was going on.

"You would not believe what Potter and Black did this time." Lily said.

"Did it have to do with the flying candy cart earlier?" Jamie asked.

"Yes and no." her friends exchanged curious looks. "Okay so they did rig the candy cart, but now they're out in the corridor hexing each other. Potter's hair is bushier than ever and bright orange."

"No!" Ivy exclaimed.

"Yes! And Sirius's robes are sparkly pink."

"Bright orange and Pink all over!" Jamie laughed. Soon after that they arrived at Hogsmeade Station.
