Summary: It wasn't only Lily who was in love with James….
Chapter One: Introductions
Lily groaned inwardly and rolled over under her covers that were a bright orange with flowers emblazoned on the cover. She reached to her bedside table and put her glasses on her nose, making sure they didn't cut into her skin as her old ones had, she sat up straight in her bed and pushed her headband back to the crown of her head. Inspecting the room she was in, she found that too her horror was not her bedroom, nor was it even the girls dorm rooms. Lily began to panic; she looked instantly around the room she was in.
'Wondered when you'd wake, Sirius and I had a bet on that you'd sleep well into lunch, but looks like he lost as its just gone 11,' James said casually balancing a tray in his hands, he placed it on the desk by the window. Lily looked dazed and pushed her glasses further up her nose, causing this pair yet again, to cut into the bridge of her nose.
'James, what am I doing here?' Lily asked curiously.
'You fell asleep,' he said kindly 'we were talking and-'
'James, I know,' Lily grinned 'stop talking,'
'What else am I meant to do?' he said playfully leaning in closer to her.
'Oh I don't know,' Lily said as if this were a throw away question, with her arms around his neck and she kissed him warmly, when they broke apart James was slightly dazed, 'Is that a good change of topic?'
'I think I'd prefer a food topic really,' he replied playfully and Lily pushed him away softly.
'Since when did you become Sirius?' she smiled, sliding out of the bed
'Oh I don't know,' James said thoughtfully 'maybe it has something to do with sharing a dorm room with him for several years,'
'If I let my roommates influence me I'd be a right mess now!' Lily laughed, as she stood up to James 'for starters,' she said kissing him lovingly 'I wouldn't be with you, I'd probably be with Snivellus or worse Sirius,'
'And I think I'd die if you said yes to either of them,' James said cradling Lily in his arms and kissing her softly on the lips.
'And what would exactly be wrong with dating me?' Sirius grinned from the doorway, his arms folded and staring huffily from Lily to James.
'Well,' Lily said breaking away from James though not letting go of his hands 'there is the fact you have a different girlfriend each month because you can't find someone who will tolerate your bizarre questionings of the female psyche.'
'And the other fact that you are on and off constantly with my sister,' James pointed out fairly.
'Fair, fair,' Sirius said thoughtfully 'but I might make Rose permanent; Alyssa is starting to bore me,'
'And there we have the final point,' James commented sarcastically.
'I'll see you down in the common room,' Lily said kissing James kindly and exiting past Sirius who gave her a very suspicious look before she left.
'When I said get a room I didn't mean-'
'Padfoot, my dear friend,' James interrupted, patting his friend on the back 'we talked and nothing more,' James added sternly to the look on Padfoots face as James whisked him out of the dorm room and down to the common room. 'We're not all like you,'
Sirius glared at him, then added to his friend
'You sound just like Lily,'
'Well better than sounding like a-'
'James, don't finish that sentence,' Sirius warned him playfully nodding his head in the direction of the portrait hole where Samantha had wandered in slinging her back over her shoulder and hitting unsuspecting first years over the heads as they rushed past her.
