Chapter 1

'Oi Evans what are you doing next Hogsmeade weekend? Oh I forgot your going with me.' James Potter announced to the entire Newts Potions class as they waited for professor Slughorn in the corridor.

James Potter had been asking Lily Evans to go out with him since third year and thank to his marauders map of Hogwarts he knew exactly where she was in the school.

'Potter I think you must have lost the last of your brain cells when you fell of your broom during the last match.' Lily Evans retorted.

'At least I caught the snitch.'

It wasn't James' fault he fell and Lily knew that. After all she had screamed at him from the stadium when Malfoy had hit the bludger in his direction.

'Anyway I heard you were all upset while I was in the hospital wing. Did you miss me?' James pouted.

A few girls sighed. Everyone in the entire school was in love with James Potter the big Quidditch star, but not Lily. Potter was always so arrogant around her. He loved himself along with his fan club of marauders. Sirius Black, who had a different girl for every day of the week, Remus Lupin, he was very studious and not so much like James and Sirius. He had grey eyes and was very good looking. Out of all the marauders Lily liked him best. Then there was Peter Pettigrew, he tagged along and idealised James. Lily could never figure out why. All they ever did were pull pranks (that Lily secretly thought were funny).

'Don't flatter yourself Potter. Rictusempra.'

He rolled on the floor because he couldn't breathe from laughing. Lily smiled at her handy work as professor Slughorn trundled down the corridor. They all filed into the classroom as James broke free of the tickle charm.

'Miss Evans, Mr Potter I would like to speak to the both of you after class.'

'Oooooooooo!' The class chanted.

Lily scowled at James but he just winked at her.

'Ok! Settle down class. Alright, today we are going to make a Polyjuice potion.'

Lily went over to where she always sat with her two best friends, Dorcas Meadowes and Mary McDonald. Dorcas had dark brunette hair and dazzling blue eyes. Mary was tall and thin like a model. She had long blond hair and hazel eyes. All the guys were in love with her. Behind them in the back row sat the marauders.

Sirius passed Mary a note.

Hey Sexy, Hows about you and your posse meet us tonight and we can get it on in The Three Broomsticks?

Mary passed the note on. Lily shook her head. 'You must be joking; I'm going no where with Potter.' She hissed

'Please Lily please' begged Mary.

'Fine but you can't leave me alone with him.'

Mary gave Lily her biggest smile and sent the note to Sirius, who winked. Lily knew that there was something going on between them but Mary would never give in to admitting it.

Class ended and as lily got up to leave through the door. She heard a voice.

'Ah yes lily, James I just wanted to congratulate you both on getting head boy and girl.' Slughorn beamed at them both.

Lily rolled her eyes.

'I hope to see you two at the next slug club party.'

He gestured towards the door. Lily and James practically ran for it before he could say anything else.

'Fat chance I'm going to another one of his parties.' James said with a smile.

Lily laughed despite herself. He beamed at her.

'So I'm glad you're coming tonight.' He hesitated a waiting Lily's response but none came.

They walked in silence to there common room. Lily was sick and tired of always having to fight with him. They entered through the portrait hole.

'Ill see you tonight then.' asked James hopefully. Lily nodded.

James sighed as he climbed the stair to the boy's dormitory.

Will she ever like me? He thought.
