Everything You'd Expect

Disclaimer: I solomney swear that I do not own;)

A/N: I'm sure that there are a million fics out there like this, but give this a try anyway:) Won't be updated a bunch, as I have about five other stories that require my attention, but I have recently become, like, OBSESSED with the Marauders and Lily/James, so I thought I'd give an actual story a whirl instead of sitting in front of my computer until three a.m. trying to find the perfect story:) So I hope that you enjoy:)

FULL SUMMARY: The four Marauders are at James's house for the Summer before seventh year:) What they don't expect is a certain house guest...one girl by the name of Lily Evans. Naturally, there are pranks, games, and maybe even a kiss or two:D

PROLOGUE

"Alright, Padfoot. Truth or Dare?"

"Dare, of course!"

"I dare you to call Alice and profess your undying love for her."

"Aw, Prongs! Frank'll kill me!"

"I don't care! You're the one who picked "Dare" you bloody oaf. Just do it!"

"But it's three in the morning - she'll be asleep!"

"Wormtail, relax. If there's one thing we know about our darling friend Alice, it's that she was born to be an owl. She'll be up. Call her, Padfoot."

"Ugh. Fine...Hello? Alice? It's Sirius...Yes, good to hear from you too, and-"

"Get on with it!"

"Alice...I LOVE YOU! I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED YOU! PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME!"

"Yes! Hand over the ten galleons, Moony."

"No, Alice I-yes, I know about you and-no, I'm not playing any...no, how could you even-please, don't tell-Alice!"

James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew sat on the floor in James's room, snickering as Sirius was trying to evade Alice's wrath. They had been playing Truth or Dare for nearly three hours, and they weren't anywhere near bored yet.

"Nice guys." Sirius said, putting the phone down. "She absolutely loathes me now!"

"Aw, relax Padfoot." James laughed, messing up his already untidy black hair. "When school comes round in September, you can tell her that it was all for a prank."

"Yeah," Sirius mumbled. "After she's hated my guts for three months."

"Were we not so far off?" Lupin asked skeptically. "Do you really have a thing for Alice, Sirius?"

"Aw, shut up, Moony!" Sirius mumbled, throwing a pillow at his friend's head.

Lupin dodged it, and threw a pillow of his own at Sirius. In the end, all four Marauders got into an all-out pillow war, with James emerging victorious.

"Blimme, I didn't know you lot were so weak!" James laughed. "A bunch of girls I'm associating myself with."

"Shup up, Prongs!" The other three said unanimously.

The Marauders were laughing so hard, they could barely hear it when a knock came at the door.

"Who's that?" Peter asked nervously.

"Dunno." James muttered. "Who comes round knocking on people's doors at three in the morning?"

"We would." Sirius snickered. "Member when we did that last summer, Prongs? Epic, that was!"

"Should we see who it is?" Lupin suggested.

The other three nodded silently, and ran downstairs to answer the Potter's front door.

It was Sirius who got there first. He flung the door open without so much as a look through the peephole, and stared into the tired looking face of Lily Evans.

What did you think? I know it was short, but it's only the Prologue;) It's not going to be along the same lines as another WONDERFUL fic that I've read & favorited, so don't think that I'm stealing someone else's ideas - this is totally original, that other fic just gave me this idea:) Don't worry, but I hope that you liked this:) GO MARAUDERS!
