Disclaimer: Sadly, only the plot is mine, but if Lily doesn't decide to take James soon I might have too :P

First fanfic yay! It's amazing how quickly i got into it! Please review with any advice!

All I did was change the layout on her when I reposted it for those of you who noticed it was edited.


Chapter 1:

Hopefully Potter has found some other girl by now. Lily Evans wished to herself as she walked to her dorm in the Gryffindor tower back for her sixth year at the wizarding school, Hogwarts. She was looking forward to another year, just as long as James Potter stayed as far away from her as possible.

Lily couldn't stand Potter unlike all the other girls at school who swooned at the sight of him. Lily didn't understand why they were all obsessed with the git. Lily saw Potter sit with his three other friends and felt like gagging just at the sight of him.

"Lily relax! Every time you look at that guy you seem like you're dying to kill him!" cried Alice, Lily's best friend since second year. "Give him a break, maybe he's not as bad as you think. Everyone must think you're completely mental!"

"Alice come on, how could he be possible any better? He's a stuck up cocky prat!" By now people in the common room had looked up at her wondering what she was yelling about. Lily lowered her voice, "Potter is self centered and doesn't give a damn about other people's feelings. All he wants is for some girl to go on gloating about him all day and give him someone to snog in the nearest broom closet!"

"Fine Lily, I give up." Alice shook her head with a faint smile. "Oh there's Frank, I gotta go." She grabbed her books and threw them into her backpack, running over to her boyfriend Frank Longbottem and he embraced her in a huge hug.

Lily sighed. She hated it when Alice brought up The Prat. She looked over to where the Marauders, James and his friend's name for themselves, huddled close together, most likely planning their next prank. The four boys suddenly burst out laughing. Lily watched as one of the boys, also her fellow prefect, put his head in his hands smiling shaking his head. His short light brown hair was neatly combed as usual and his almost black blue eyes sparkled. He was probably the classiest of the Marauders, and he and Lily were somewhat friends.

Lily could have sworn Sirius Black's laugh sounded almost like a bark. His last name fit him well for his long black hair. It swished as he continued to crack up. All the girls wanted to Black, and at some point they all did. Black's relationships rarely lasted a couple of weeks, let alone a couple of days.

Peter Pettigrew just sat in the corner with a fake smile on his face. Pettigrew never seemed to be part of the group, he more just kind of followed the other guys around.

"Come on Wormtail, have some fun." James told his Pettigrew, giving him a small nudge in the arm. Pettigrew looked away. James leaned back in his chair. His jet black hair was an untidy mess. He was always running his hands through it to make sure it stayed far from neat so he looked as if he just got off a broom, which drove Lily insane. James was in his shirt that said across the chest "Catch the snitch" letting everyone know he was the seeker for the Gryffindor quidditch team. Being the seeker really gave Potter quite the physical athletic look. He is kinda good looking… Lily silently thought to herself. Oh my god, I can't believe I just was thinking that about Potter.

Suddenly James leaned back a little more in his chair and Lily watched as the chair fell over backwards. Black stood up and looked at James surprised and then roared out laughing.

Practically breathless Black congratulated his friend, "Nice going Prongs! You made such a loud crash! Gee mate, maybe you should lose a few pounds!" Black continued with his canine laugh.

"You okay Potter?" Lily looked into his hazel eyes as he lay on the floor stunned. Suddenly his face lit up.

"I think I hit my shoulder on the table. Can you kiss it to make it feel better?" James had a huge smirk on his face, proud of his comment. Lily made a growl and turned on her heels and started to walk away to her room. "Hey Evans!" James called after her.

"What do you want now Potter?"

"Will you go ou-"James started before she cut him off.

"Once again Potter, NO!" and Lily stormed out.

"She hates me…" James sighed.

"I think you're right pron- Oww!" Sirius wailed as Remus hit him with his potions textbook.

"Has it ever occurred to you that she finds you asking her out all the time rather annoying? Maybe you should just leave her alone for a little bit and stop trying to impress her." Remus made James think for a second.

"Moony, that would keep her from seeing all my wonderful charm!" Remus shook his head.

"Lillian Evans, you are insane! I can't believe you keep turning down the James Potter! He's by far the hottest guy in school!" Alice was screaming at the top of her lungs at her red head friend.

"Al, calm down, all of Britain will hear you." Alice rolled her eyes. "Please Alice, try to see it from my view. He drives me insane. How am I supposed to go out with him if being with him for five minutes ticks me off? Just thinking about him ticks me off!"

Alice sighed. "I know, but I mean, at least you're thinking about it…"

"I am not thinking about it! There's nothing more to him than his good looks!"

"Good looks? Lily do you really think that about Potter? At least you have some appreciation for him…" Alice had left Lily lost for words.

I can't believe I just said that! Potter… good looks… Those two words usually I wouldn't even think together let alone say! There is no way I can like him… Alice was waiting for Lily to respond. "Urgh, leave me alone!" Lily cracked a semi fake smile. "I'm going to bed, you should to." Lily pulled the red curtain around her bed as she heard Alice murmur an incantation to turn off the lights

In the Marauders dormitory, the boys hadn't even considered sleeping yet. After being in the school for not even twenty-four hours, the room was a disaster.

"I can't believe you guys just threw your new robes all over the room like this." Derek Stolton and Davey Gudgeon walked their way over to the canopy beds.. Sharing a room with the Marauders wasn't easy for the two boys. Usually within the first two months they moved into another year's dorm.

"It's going to be like this in a couple days anyway. Might as well not wait." Sirius picked up a bag of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans and popped one into his mouth. "Mmmm, chocolate!"

"I love those things!" Derek out his hand at Sirius.

"What's with the hand? I'm not going to sniff it if that's what you want." Remus tried to hold back a small chuckle.

"Ha. Ha. You think you're just so funny don't you Black?" Derek said while rolling his eyes.

"Clearly I do, that's why all the ladies love me and not you." Gudgeon let out a small laugh, but quickly stopped when Stolton gave him a dirty look.

"Black you idiot! Can I just have a Bertie Bott?"

"Beg like a puppy first…"

Derek grabbed one out of Sirius taunting hand.

"Look everyone! Stolton just stole from me!- ha! That's sounds good together, Stolton stole, trying saying that five times fast. Stolton stole, stolen stole, stolen stole…" Sirius was making different voice pitches for each one, very amused with his joke.

"Enough already Black! Davey, let's go to my brothers dorm. Next year we won't even bother trying this room…" The two boys grabbed their trunks and stomped out of the room.

"They're gone." Peter remarked the obvious as his usual.

"Thank god they are!" Remus rolled his eyes at the thought of the two. "Now James can tell us why he looks like he was just hit by a bludger."

The three boys looked over to where James was sprawled out on his bed staring at the ceiling as he picked at the fringe on his pillow. "It's Evans isn't it…?" Remus put a hand on his friend's shoulder.

"I don't get why you like her Prongs." Peter piped in. James gave him an annoyed face. Peter continued, "I mean she's just a mudbl-"

"DON'T YOU EVER SAY THAT ABOUT LILY EVANS AGAIN!" James suddenly jumped up threatening his friend.

"Don't threaten me!" Peter fought back, but came on sounding really weak. "She hates you and you know it!" Lupin shot Pettigrew a look to signal him to shut up. Peter sat down on his bed in the corner of the room.

"Man you're one thick rat Wormtail." Sirius glared, "Maybe if you weren't stuffing your face in the kitchens you would hear that's all he talks about is how Evans hates him but he's obsessed with her!"

"Padfoot, you're not helping." James had an uneasy look to himself.

Remus stood up knowing to put an end to the conversation. "Oh look what time it is!"

Remus pointed his wand at the clock making the hour hand move ahead two hours. "We really should go to bed now with classes tomorrow…." He flicked off the lights and everyone got into bed pulling shut their curtains.

Meanwhile Stolton lay in an extra bed in the seventh years dorm room. Stolton stole, just wait Marauders, Stolton isn't finished stealing…


Well? What did you think? Please review! Any ides would be great. Also, I know that only in the HP movies James is the seeker but I think a seeker suits him better, so in my story he's a seeker. It's fanfiction so he can be some green haired guy if I want him too, only that would be oh so wrong…
