Chapter One: "You're Head Boy?!"

Lily and Friends POV

"How did Potter get to be head boy?"

It was well known throughout the entire school that Lily Evans loathed James Potter. On the other hand, ever since James had met the beautiful red head he had claimed to be in love with her. He had taken to asking her out nearly every time he saw her, and now that he was head boy and she was head girl, they would have to be together more than Lily could stand. Lily was starting to wish she hadn't been made head girl.

"He's really not that bad Lily, you just haven't taken the time to get to know him." Claire was Lily's best friend. After all they had grown up together, but she knew Lily was overreacting. Claire had been a chaser on the Gryffindor Quiditch team with James since there 2nd year along with his friend Sirius Black. She had befriended them and there friends Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew, much to Lily's annoyance.

"Maybe Claire's right, Lily, you should give Potter a chance. I mean you are going to have to spend a lot more time with him this year." Jane was another of Lily's good friends. Although she wasn't as close to the boys (more commonly known as the marauders) as Claire, she knew that they weren't as bad as Lily claimed they were.

"Jane, It's Potter! If I so much as acknowledge his presence he thinks that I am proclaiming my love for him. Alice you agree with me don't you? Alice? Hello! Earth to Alice!"

"Huh? Oh sorry, must have zoned out, what did you say Lily?'

"Oooooooo Alice, Daydreaming about Frank again, what is that the 3rd time we've caught you today?" It was well known to the girls that Alice had a huge crush on Frank Longbottom.

"Shut-up Claire!"

"Anyway, what am I going to do about Potter? I can barely stand being in the same class! This year was supposed to be perfect and now once again bloody Potter has to go and mess things up."

"Lily it's not the end of the world." Claire reasoned "He's just an extremely hot guy who just happens to be in love with you. Personally I fail to see the problem here."

"Oh my gosh Claire, how many times must we go through this. James Potter is a self obsessed arrogant git! And he's not in love with me, I'm just the one girl that won't swoon at the sight of him and he is determined to change that. He just can't stand the thought of someone not thinking he's irresistible."

"Whatever Lily, I give up, but if you don't hurry, you're going to be late for your first head meeting."

"What! O my gosh your right! Got to go."

Marauder POV

"How did you get to be head boy?"

It was well known throughout the entire school that James Potter, was far from what people might call a "model student", which usually is a quality in a Head Boy. He and his partner and in crime Sirius Black, currently had a whole drawer full of past detention slips in Mr. Filch's office.

"I guess now we have concrete evidence that Dumbledore is off his rocker after all."

"Now Sirius, I'm sure that Dumbledore has a rational explanation of why he made James head boy, I just don't know what it could be."

"Remus, why do you always have to take the Teachers side?"

Out of the four boys, most people would think that Remus Lupin was a shoe-in for the head boy position. He always paid attention during class and, even being a marauder, was very seldom seen in detention. He was even made prefect in his 6th year, along with Lily Evans.

"Well I don't care what his reasoning behind it is; all I know is that I get to spend a lot more time with our new head girl Miss Lily Evans."

"I'm sure she's not to happy about that. I wouldn't be surprised if she was trying to resign right now."

"She can't do that, can she?"

"No, a head student can't resign; I just said that she would probably be trying to."

"Well that's a relief; don't scare me like that Remus. Hey Peter you awake over there?"

Peter Pettigrew had started to fall asleep in the corner. It was unknown to people who knew the marauders why the boys had befriended Peter. Unlike all the other boys he was, to put it nicely, a dork. He followed the others around and basically worshiped the ground they walked on. He really wasn't all that great in school. The only reason that he got to his 7th year was because the marauders helped him.

"PETER WAKE UP!"

"Huh, what? Sirius, why are you yelling? Are we there yet?"

"No Peter, I was just going to ask you how your summer went."

"Oh, well um nothing much happened. My mom got this new owl, and it wouldn't shut-up all summer. I hardly ever slept through the night, so if you will excuse me, I need some sleep." And he promptly propped himself up against the window and fell asleep.

"Ok then. Hey James you better get going or you're going to be late for your heads meeting."

"O yes James, wouldn't want to disappoint Miss Evans on the first day would you." Said Sirius snickering.

"Shut-up Sirius. Thanks Remus, I'll see you guys later."
