Lily was flying on a broomstick, her red hair whipping behind her as she soared above
the grounds of Hogwarts. She was gripping the back of a black haired boy. A buff black haired boy. Nothing could ruin that happy feeling except for the red robin that kept poking at her. Swatting at it to drive it away, the bird zoomed in close and started beating her back with its wings. Cut it out! She yelled at the insufferable creature. Yet the bird dodged her blows and kept on whacking her…
"Would you stop already!" demanded Lily.
"Wake up! God Lil, you think you could at least let us know when you plan to fall asleep in the Library!" shouted her friend, Roxxi.
Lily tossed her fiery red hair to one side and looked her friend up and down, noting that today her hair was brown with red streaks, which complimented her black mini and blue halter.
"Lily where were you? Did your clueless mind forget what today is?"
Searching her mind, Lily could only think of one thing, "Finally kill Potter?"
Roxxi rolled her eyes. "That's tomorrow." she joked with a hint of truth. "No unfortunately today is the day the seventh years at Hogwarts are paired as couples and forced to live like muggles." With that thought she scrunched her face together, making her look like a monkey.
Lily laughed hard, and ran to class, meeting her other best friend, Lexi. The blond girl waved her over.
"Lily oh my gosh finally!" She ran up to her best friend and hugged her. "I thought you would never make it! Good thing Roxxi decided to go look for you."
The trio walked over to the Great Hall. All the tables had been pushed aside and in their place stood an altar and long lines of racks and tables filled with clothes and supplies. Lily was eyeing them and began silently laughing as she realized this was a wizard's idea of modern muggle materials: slightly rusting toaster, old TV's that only received a few channels. Turning to point this out to her friends, Lily was knocked over by three boys chasing after a black haired, buff, and completely annoying guy. A guy that Lily knew without looking, who it was.
"POTTER!" She shrieked, whipping out her wand, red hair crackling with energy and emerald green eyes glowing bright with anger.
James POV
James chased after the ball he had bewitched to look and act like the snitch. Sirius followed close behind him, eager to win the game. Moony grabbed onto Sirius' pant leg as he fell, causing a chain reaction as the falling Sirius shoved James, making him shoot straight past Lily Evans, knocking her to the ground. Within seconds, James was flat on the ground with a wand being pointed at his face by a livid yet beautiful Lily.
"Umm hey Evans. Would you by any chance take pity on this knocked over boy and go out with him?" James asked.
"Knocked up boy and you know it Potter. Just like you know my answer." Hissed Lily.
"So I'll see you Saturday at eight?" he asked hopefully, heart skipping a beat.
"Hell no." With that Lily muttered a spell that James knew quite well, and found himself hanging upside down by his feet. Lily let him hang there before letting him down with a thud.
Undeterred, James got up amidst the laughter of his fellow Marauders and his classmates, who thought this was the best "No." Evans had ever given.
Smacking Sirius, who had been rolling on the floor with tears of laughter in his eyes, James listened intently as the names of the couples were called on, silently praying he was with the dangerously beautiful Lily.
