Friends before Rivals

Eleven-year-old James potter walked briskly onto the platform pushing his heavy cart. For years he had watched his brothers and sisters leave for Hogwarts. Now it was finally his turn! His parents would have seen him off, but they were busy. They had important duties as King and Queen of France. He sighed and heaved his trunk onto the train.
James found an empty compartment and dragged his heavy trunk into it. James plopped down on the seat closest to the window. A few seconds later the door opened and a girl stood there. She had gorgeous green ayes that sparkled like emeralds, and long red hair that fell gracefully her back. (A/N: Lily Evans perhaps…he he he!)
"Is anyone sitting here?" she asked.
James opened his mouth but no sound came out. 'Great' James thought bitterly 'now she thinks I'm an idiot.' At that thought he closed his mouth quickly and shook his head violently.
The girl laughed. "I'm Lily by the way, Lily Evans."
"Erm…James…Potter…"
They sat there in silence until the train started moving. "Well this is awkward…" James muttered.
Lily laughed but didn't say anything.
"Right…" James started rummaging thorough his trunk and pulled out a blue and black guitar.
"Wow!" Lily muttered. "Can you play something?" she asked hopefully.
"Sure" James said then he started playing.
Someday I'm gonna be famous
I have talent…well...no…
These days you don't really need it
Thanks to reality shows
Can't wait to date a supermodel
Can't wait to sue my dad
Can't wait to wreck a Ferrari
On my way to Rehab
Cuz when you're a celebrity
It's adios reality
You can act just like a fool
But people think you're cool
Just cuz your on T.V.
I can throw a major fit
When my laitie isn't just how I like it
When they say I've gone insane
I'll blame it on the fame
The pressures that go with
Bein' a celebrity
I get to cry to Barbra Waters
When things don't go my way
I'll get community service
No matter which law I break
I'll make the supermarket tabloids
They'll write some awful stuff
But the more they run my name down
The more my price goes up
Cuz when you're a celebrity
It's adios Reality
No matter what you do
People think you're cool
Just cuz your on T.V.
I can fall in and outa love
Have marriages that barely last a month
When they go down the Drain
I'll blame it on the fame
'N' say it's just so tough
Bein a celebrity
So lets hitch up the wagon
And head out west
To the land of fun and sun
We'll be real world bachelors
Jackass millionaires
Hey-hey Hollywood
Here we come
Cuz when you're a celebrity
It's adios reality
No matter what you do
People think you're cool
Just cuz you're on T.V.
Bein a Celebirty
Yeah celebrity
James stopped and looked at Lily.
Lily, wide-eyed and gaping, just stared at him.
Suddenly the compartment door swung open and three boys stood there.
"Do you mind if we sit here?"
A/N: ooooh! Cliffie!

Betcha can't guess who was at the door! Hehehe!
