Lily Evans scowled as Professor Slughorn paired her with Sirius Black. SLughorn gave her a look that said clearly that if he paired her again with her best friends the others would think he favored her. Which he did of course.
The reason Lily didn't want to be with Sirius was because all he did was nag her. About James Potter. She hated that James Potter. It was always James Potter with his Quidditch and his hair and his stinking popularity. And him calling himself a marauder strutting about the castle being so arrogant.
Just as Lily crazily thought she could make the potion before Sirius crossed the room she heard a voice. " So, Lily, gonna go out with Prongs yet?"
"No. The only time Potter will be seeing me is when I turn him down and leave him in the dust." Lily said fiercely as she cut up daisy roots. They were supposed to be making the wolfsbane potion. She added a fusion of wormwood to her simmering cauldron. She instructed Sirius to finish cutting up daisy roots. She scowled as Sirius tried to persuade her to go out with James.
Lily flasked their potion and gave it to one plump Professor Slughorn. Meanwhile, back at the table Sirius was absentmindedly putting things away. Why wouldn't Evans go out with James, he wondered.
"Uh-oh." HE knocked some seeds over and they instantly bloomed into flowers. He needed to clean them up now, too.
Lily hurried over to put stuff away. She scowled at Sirius. "You just try to ruin me, don't you? First you follow me around trying to persuade me to date Potter and then you make me stay and clean after my last class of the day! I could be relaxing right now!"
"Don't think I'm too happy right now! My persuasion hasn't worked and I haven't had to clean in months!" Sirius retorted.
They argued about immaturity and James and other stuff. It had taken them a half an hour to clean already and they hadn't nearly clean ¼ of the mess because of their bickering. Both were becoming irritable.
Finally Lily screamed "EVANESCO!" and the mess disappeared. She stored away her cauldron and glared at Sirius. Sirius thought sparks were coming from her eyes. He started to glare back.
They glared for 15 minutes. Slowly Lily started to pack her books. It seemed to take forever to get to the door. But right before she got there Sirius finally punctured the balloon that tolerated him.
"Evans, are you going to go out with James, yet?"
Lily drew her wand and there was a bang; both had tried to hex each other at the same time. Both were lying on the floor.
"Shut up, Black, I'm warning you!"
"Is that a yes?"
Something odd happened. Their wands each spun towards each other and a gold light connected the tips. Sirius and Lily felt like they were falling. A second later they were back.
Lily felt funny. She reached her hand up…..it was bigger and stronger…….what was wrong?
"Why is my hand moving?!?" Sirius said. When Sirius said this Lily felt her mouth move and she was speaking.
Sirius and Lily looked around. Lily's body was lying on the floor. "OH MERLIN! MY BODY!" Lily shrieked. She ran to the mirror. She was in Sirius's body……….but that meant she was sharing a body with him.
Lily: Oh, my! I'm sharing a body with Sirius!
Sirius: Obviously! What did you do? I can't share a body with you!
Lily I didn't do anything! You need to carry my body to McGonagall.
Sirius: Okay, Let's go.

That is what they are saying to each other in their minds.
