Hey there everybody. I recently decided to start another Fan-fiction. I've had an Idea playing around my head for ages, but recently I decided to act upon it.

I hope people will enjoy it.

Please persevere with it.

And note that the Marauders and co. Are in there sixth year.

Disclaimer: I do not own or claim any of the characters mentioned here which are also part of J. stories Harry Potter. However, I do claim all characters who are not in Harry Potter as my own O.C.'s

Chapter 1: That Stupid Potter Boy, and that Stupid Diary! Or...Prologue (Lily's POV)

AKA

Chapter 1: That Incredibly Hot Evans Girl, and That Stupid Diary! Or...Prologue (James' POV)

Monday September 27th 1975:

I don't want to be writing in this. I really, really don't. I have Charms homework to do. I have Transfiguration Homework to do. I do not have time for Professor McGonagall's stupid pet project. I don't even WANT to do Professor McGonagall's stupid pet project. Unfortunately, I HAVE to do Professor McGonagall's stupid pet project, and it clearly seems like I don't have a choice in it.

I figured I should probably explain how this all started...It is the 27th of September (oh right – I've already said that) and during Transfiguration Class today, my life ended.

Oh come off it Lily. It wasn't that bad. You're just being melodramatic again.

I am not being melodramatic!

Ten Galleons says that you are.

You're on.

Lily just shouted to Eilish, who read the last paragraph, and said that it was melodramatic. Lily now owes me ten Galleons.

I don't have ten Galleons dammit!

I'll take a date instead?

Good try Potter. I think I'd rather have an IOU.

I'll pay for drinks?

Not a hope. Now can we stop writing notes and start on the actual entry.

You sure about that date?

Give up Potter. What should we start on?

How about our 'Punishment?'

Fine. Should I write about it or you?

You can.

Thanks. Real Gentleman aren't you.

I do try...

"Now class," Screeched Professor McGonagall, as she scratched some words onto the hard surface of the blackboard causing a ringing into the ears of all the Gryffindors and Ravenclaws. "Can anybody tell me what this incantation represents?"

I put my hand up. "Miss Evans?" McGonagall instantly asked.

"It's a Reversal Spell." I answered, having already read about it in the homework we'd been given yesterday. When McGonagall turned away, to talk more about reversal spells, I wasn't surprised to hear the words "Smart Alec" from the desk behind me. I turned around to see James Potter sitting there, casually flicking his hair with his wand, a flirtatious smile playing around his lips.

"At least some of us actually contribute in class." I bit back.

"I contribute" Rebutted Potter, adopting a mock-hurt tone, "I just don't suck up to every teacher in the school like you do!"

"Pig! I don't suck up to the teachers!"

"Yes you do."

"No I don't!"

Suddenly, a third voice entered our argument. It was the voice of Sirius Black – one which I didn't need to hear. Black is tall, reasonably attractive, as well as a masochistic pig, whom seems to believe all girls are merely for flirting with, snogging the hell out of, and then dumping as soon as he spots someone better looking.

"Are we having an argument?" He asked, in his low yet childish voice, "Cause if you are can I join in!?"

"Piss off Black!" I replied, "James is just being the normal self-centred pig he is. I'm sure he can't help what comes naturally to him."

"Yeah," James added "And Lily is just being the annoying, stupid, nerdy and yet surprisingly hot freak who sits next to me in Transfiguration."

I kicked him in the shins.

A new voice then entered the fray. It was the voice of my Salvation. Eilish Burrows had entered the fray. She is attractive, clever, and head-strong, with short brown hair and a fiery temper. She is also James' cousin, and Sirius' mortal enemy.

"Are you and James at it again already...?"

Sirius looked rather irritated that Eilish had joined the onslaught. Attempting the rudest tone he could imagine, he muttered "Well if it isn't everyone's least favourite brat." Unfortunately for him, Eilish heard this comment.

"Such an honour to be talking to the first man who was born with breasts AND an obnoxious personality!" Eilish replied bitterly.

"Still better looking than you or anyone else..." Sirius argued.

Eilish rolled her eyes. "You should probably listen in on the lesson Black. They're talking about reduction charms. Maybe you could use one on your ego."

Now Remus Lupin joined in on the argument. "Guys! Will you please keep quiet, McGonagall's gonna hear us!"

Starting to get angry now, I continued to rant at James.

"Will you just grow up Potter!"

"Lily..."

"Don't use my name like that, you ego-centric, arrogant, cocky..."

"No but Lily..."

"I said to not use my name like that! You stupid pig!"

"Fine – Evans! Turn around you think idiot!"

I turned around to stare into the face of McGonagall herself.

"I'm sorry if my Transfiguration class was interrupting, Miss Evans."

I sank lower in my seat...then stammered,

"Sorry, Professor, Just, Potter and Black and Annoying and..."

"Leave it till later. I'll see all of you after class. That includes you Lupin..."

"But all I..."

"ENOUGH!" McGonagall shouted, finally losing her cool. "All of you. After class."

The Lesson then passed quickly and quietly, with no-one daring to talk, for fear of angering McGonagall more. When the lesson finally came to a close, the professor beckoned to us all and pointed at her desk. Like obedient sheep, we, err, sheepishly walked to the front of class, where McGonagall was pacing in front of the blackboard.

"Now...What are we going to do with...!"

But before she could finish, a small, blonde-headed girl streaked into the room.

"Lily! Eilish! I just heard what happened. If it was that goddamn Black again I swear I'm gonna..." But she stopped instantly when she spotted McGonagall's face.

"Excellent. Miss Devon. I had hoped you'd arrive. I must admit that I am disappointed with all of you. You are now sixth years, and I expected you too all act as such. Yet instead you continue immature little third year feuds, showing a desperate lack of mental growth at all. Therefore I have decided on a punishment for you all, and It involves, this..." She then brought out a small diary, which she handed to me. "On each day of the week, you and the person you are sharing the rota with will combine to write at least 1000 words on what has happened during the day."

"You may only write with the quill I shall provide with the diary, and should you or your partner not write at least the required 1000 words, you will be kept awake all night, by a simple charm I have placed on the front cover. Also the quill is likewise bewitched, so that it will stick to your hand and continually shock you should you lie or leave out important parts of the day. Open the book to the front page to find out who you will be sharing you're rota with."

I opened up the book to reveal a neatly written rota, describing our week.

Monday: Lily Evans/James Potter

Tuesday: Remus Lupin/Amy Devon

Wednesday: Eilish Burrows/Sirius Black

Thursday: Remus Lupin/Amy Devon

Friday: Sirius Black/Eilish Burrows

Saturday: James Potter/Lily Evans

Sunday: Combined Group

"I have to share nights? With Potter?" I half screamed.

"Is that a problem Miss Evans?" McGonagall rebutted, using a calm and controlled tone.

I cowered. "No Professor."

"Every month, I shall look at how well you have co-operated. If you do indeed spend an entire month without any arguments or fights, I shall allow you to stop using the diary. That is all you need to know about your punishment. Goodnight."

And with that we left the foreboding classroom and into the long corridor opposite.

"I can't believe we have to write in a shared diary." Complained Eilish. "I don't want those pricks reading about every single bit of information in my private life. There are things I don't want every boy in the school to know about." She moaned.

"Ahhh." Teased Sirius, putting on a mocking tone, "Does Eilish not want me to know about her periods?"

"Shut your mouth Black, before I shut it for you!"

"And how would you do that?" Replied Sirius, puckering his lips.

"Like this!" Shouted Eilish, punching Sirius and winding him, leaving him gasping for breath.

James gave Sirius a bemused look and muttered, "Smooth mate."

I couldn't help the giggle that escaped from my lips. Everyone instantly turned to face me, ignoring Sirius and Eilish's verbal assaults. "What! Just because James is an insensitive idiot doesn't mean he can't be slightly amusing. Occasionally." Seeing Remus' raised eyebrow I added, "Very occasionally."

"Did you hear that?" James said, delightedly, "Evans thinks I'm funny!"

"Rarely." I added. "In fact – I think this is one of those 'once in a lifetime' moments"

I'm very proud to say this successfully wiped the smile of James' face, which was instantly replaced by a deep scowl. "You may change your mind about that if you come with me to Hogsmead?" He offered, but the look of disgust on my face was more than enough of an answer to him and he gave up.

"So..." Started Lupin, attempting to relieve the awkward silence which had been caused by Mine and James' previous argument. "I know it could be a bit embarrassing – but as a punishment, I don't think this is too bad, it might mean we'll get too know..." But he wasn't able to finish the sentence when he realised the glares that everyone but Amy was giving him.

"Well you could at least try to co-operate!" Sighed Remus.

"No offense mate," Sirius replied in mock-politeness, "But the idea of co-operating with Weasel over here is almost certainly a crime against nature."

"What did you just call me?!"

"Weasel – Because I'm thinking your face looks shocking like that of a weasel. It really is a testament to how drunk James must have been to kiss it."

Eilish blushed deeply, then turned her killer stare on Potter. "You told him about that!"

James rolled his eyes. "Eilish – it was three years ago, and half the school knows about it. You know it meant nothing. And I was sort of drunk – it was the first time I'd had a large quantity of butter-beer. Now, if Evans had kissed me..."

I knew this would eventually bounce back on me. I rolled my eyes as Sirius taunted, "Well you must have been seriously drunk James. Like half of the Three Broomsticks stock drunk. Because kissing that thing, it's so...Wrong!"

At this point Eilish cracked, and tackled Sirius onto the ground, violently assaulting his ribs, and basically causing him many forms of bodily harm. Unwilling to fight a girl, Sirius managed to taunt "I didn't know you were an 'on-top' kind of girl?" Causing Eilish to get even angrier, and increasing the ferocity of her desperately aggressive assault on Sirius.

I smiled and caught Amy's eye.

"This is going to be one hell of a year." Lupin grumbled.

So yeah. Now I guess you know about how you came to be, oh time consuming and incredibly irritating diary.

But at least you get to spend some quality time with me?

Go stick your head down the loo James.

That wasn't nice Lily. What did I ever do to you?

Insult me continually. Annoy me continually. Embarrass me continually. Need I go on?

No I think that's more than enough – But you should at least try and get to know me. You might even find you like me.

There is absolutely no chance I will ever like you James.

The Quill just shocked you didn't it.

Yes. But even so – It's an incredibly low chance.

A chance is all I need. For you Lily, I will wait an eternity.

I just punched James in the face. He's looking rather upset about it actually. I just feel accomplished.

You're an incredibly violent and cold person Lily. I think you should probably take some Anger management classes.

Whatever. You get to do the next bit.

What about?

How about Charms.

Right – The 'Bet.'

I will win that by the way.

In your dreams. You're doomed.

You're very cocky for someone who just got punched in the face.

You know you'll end up loving me Lily. All girls do.

From the amount of times you and your 'Gang' have called me male, I guess I'm an exception to that rule.

I don't call you male!

Sure you don't. Just get on with the entry...

"Oi! James!" Sirius shouted at me from over the other side of me. "It's so bollocks that we have to do this stupid pet project for McGonagall."

"It could be worse," I replied, as Sirius followed my gaze, revealing the fiery red of the back of Lily's head.

Sirius chuckled. "Sorry, I keep forgetting this is a dream come true for you. It's a nightmare for me. I don't know how many temper tantrums from your cousin."

"I don't get why you guys don't get along," I muttered in exasperation.

"I wouldn't get along with Weasel if my life depended on it. She's rude, and obnoxious, and she thinks she's the best at everything."

"Perfect match for you then," I smiled before Sirius shot me a look. "Ok – leaving it. Just remember that Hate is a form of passion Pads."

"Who hates who?" Whispered Lily from behind me.

"Just saying how hate is a form of passion Evans," Answered Sirius wiggling his eyebrows suggestively.

"In your dreams Black," Lily bit back.

"More likely to be in James'" Winked Sirius.

"Hey!" I answered angrily as Lily chuckled.

"I wouldn't be surprised."

"You know you like me Lily. Or at least...you will," I sniped.

"As Sirius said. Only in your dreams Potter."

"I bet you." I threw out, rashly.

"Pardon?"

"I bet you I can make you like me before the end of this year."

"On what terms?" Asked Lily cautiously, a sparkle of mischief in her bright green eyes.

"If I win, you have to go on a date with me to Hogsmead, and you have to tell the entire school at breakfast that you're in love with me."

"You what?" Lily replied furiously, blushing at the thought.

"You heard me." I answered cockily.

She considered my proposal. "What if I win?"

"I never bother you again." I said simply.

I watched as a look of defiance filled her eyes. "You're on. Remus and Amy are judges. Deal?" She offered out her hand.

"Deal." I took her hand, with Sirius watching and laughing.

"You crazy kids" He chuckled, causing Lily to turn a deep red again.

That's it?

What?

I write over one and a half thousand words in my entry, and you can't even reach four hundred?

There wasn't that much to write about. And it's not my fault you ramble...

I ramble? You're unbelievable!

It's true.

Get a life James.

Having a temper tantrum are we?

I will hit you.

Poor little Lily. Go have a cry.

I just hit James. Again. He's trying to get my attention now (failing miserably – just in case you were wondering) but I think I may go bruise his ego for a little while. We've written well over the thousand words anyway.

This is Lily Evans, Signing off.

Signing off? Who the hell says Signing off. Were at school – not in the army! But just for the hell of it,

This is James Potter, Signing Off to go taunt Lily for a bit. (after all – I have a bet to win)

And that concludes the first chapter. Hope you all enjoyed it. I'm likely to come back and edit this a million times, but for now, I'm very interested to find out what you thought about the story so far, and whether or not I should continue. Personally, I didn't think this chapter was too great, but I know that new chapters are always really difficult. Hopefully It will get better. Anyway, thanks for reading, and...

PLEASE.

REVIEW.

(No but seriously. It would be really appreciated...)
