A/N: I watched the first seven movies in preparation for my midnight show for the eighth, and I was inspired by Sirius in the third one. These are just going to be different moments that James, Lily, and Sirius spent together. First Harry Potter fic! Review, please! :)
When Lily was in Transfiguration, she made sure to write down everything Professor McGonagall said. As this required all of her attention, she could not hear the Marauders whispering behind her.
Finally, Sirius resorted to throwing a roll of parchment at her.
"Evans!" he whispered loudly. "Evans, turn around!"
"Shut up, Black!" Severus hissed from the next table. "Can't you see she's not interested in talking to you?"
"We weren't interested in talking to you, Snivellus," James retorted. "Evans!"
Lily finally turned around, glaring at all of them.
"This is a class, Potter," she told him. "And some people actually want to pay attention."
"Not us," Sirius grinned, earning a laugh from Peter and an exasperated smile from Remus.
Lily rolled her eyes.
"Do you guys have something to say?" she asked.
"I just wanted to make sure you were coming to the Quidditch match tomorrow," James shrugged. "After all, Snivellus won't be in the Gryffindor stands to guide you through your first match, so I thought I'd have the honor."
Severus was too angry to retort, so he followed Lily's earlier reaction and rolled his eyes.
Lily looked up at Professor McGonagall, who was still teaching, before replying.
"I have to finish the Potions essay," she said. "I won't be able to make it."
"Lighten up, Lily," Remus broke in. "That's not due till the end of next week. Besides, Quidditch matches are an experience."
Peter nodded enthusiastically.
"Well, I'm not coming with you, Black," Lily said rudely. "Or you, Potter."
She turned to Remus, the only Marauder she actually considered a friend.
"But I guess I'll have to go," Lily admitted. "It does sound fun."
"It will be," James assured her, smirking at Severus as if he had won something.
"You arrogant—" Severus began.
"Sev, he's not worth it!" Lily exclaimed.
Sirius appeared to be about to say something rude about Severus' nose, but his mouth closed abruptly, and he sat up straight. A satisfied Lily turned back around, only to find Professor McGonagall standing in front of her.
"I hope I'm not interrupting your conversation, Black," she said.
"No, Professor, we were just about finished," Sirius assured her, smiling.
James started to laugh, but stopped when Professor McGonagall turned to him.
"Potter, Black, detention today," she frowned. "Miss Evans, you will join them."
"But, Professor!" Lily protested. "I didn't even—"
"No excuses, Miss Evans," Professor McGonagall cut her off. "I will not tolerate disrespect in my own classroom."
As the Transfiguration professor made her way back to the front of the classroom, Lily sighed.
"I've never been given detention before," she said sadly.
"Don't worry, Evans," Sirius laughed. "James and I will be right there with you."
It took all of Lily's self composure not to scream.
