Living with James

By: Midnightmoonstone163

Becoming Head Girl felt just as she hoped. Her own room, a huge room to be exact. She did have to share a bathroom though. She wouldn't of minded if James bloody Potter wasn't who she had to share it with. Yes, James Potter was head boy, the last person Lily Evans wanted to spend a whole school year living with is. She told herself to not freak out, though. She told herself that if she's calm and just ignores him, things might go a little better. But, ignoring someone is hard to do when they burst into your room at 5:30 in the morning.

"Lily! Lily, wake up." James whispered next to Lily's sleeping head.

"Lily Evans." he spoke louder.

"Potter! What do you want? I'm sleeping!" She grumbled.

"Lily, I know your sleeping, that's why I'm waking you up."

Lily lifted up her head for a moment to get a glimpse at her clock.

"At 5:30? 5:30, Potter?" She shrieked.

"Well…yeah. I usually get up at 5a.m. to workout, then I shower."

"And why are you waking me up?" she muffled from underneath a pillow.

"Well, I wanted an excuse to come into your room half naked so you could see my abs. Or because we have a Heads meeting at six. Whichever excuse you like best."

She stared at him for a second before what he had said sank in.

"Oh, Merlin! Well why didn't you tell me that to begin with? I'm going to be late!" she yelled as she jumped out of bed. She rushed over to her trunk but the sound of someone snickering stopped her. She looked down at her kitty pajama's, then looked at James who was smirking. He winked.

"GET. OUT." Lily growled.

Lily made it to the Heads meeting on time and it went smoothly. She wanted to prove to Professor Dumbledore he made the right choice of picking her as Head Girl. Lily just had no idea as to why he had picked James Potter as Head Boy.

She hated Potter. He was always asking her out and showing off or pranking some poor person. He thought because he was Quidditch captain he was some sort of sex god or something. So, every time he would ask her out, she said no, and she quite enjoyed turning him down.

She was heading down to the Great Hall for breakfast when she felt two small hands cover her eyes and a bubbly voice say, "Guess who?"

"Marlene!" Lily turned around to hug her friend.

"Oh, I've missed you, girl!" Marlene said, "I know we wrote to each other over break, but tell me everything! Congrats on making Head Girl!"

All throughout breakfast Lily told Marlene of how Potter is head boy. Marlene suggested that now that they live together, they can snog all they want, which just made Lily mad and lose her appetite.

They talked some more about the horrors to come this year with Potter as Head Boy and of what happened over break until it was time for their first class of the day, Potions with the Slytherin's.
