Hey! I'm glad to say that From Hate to Love is back! From being deleted from fanfiction for grammar and spelling mistakes (too bad, since the reviews were increasing more and more), this is a more (hopefully) improved version. Thanks anyway to everyone who supported me in this fic, I really hope you won't lose your interest in this, since I made this primarily for your own enjoyment. Love much!

Chapter 1

"JAMES MICHAEL POTTER YOU GET DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" Lily Elizabeth Evans, a 7th year Gryffindor who was presently looking beyond pissed, yelled furiously.

A while later, James Potter finally went down from the boy's dormitories, followed by his best friends, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew, the four more commonly known as the famous-or rather, infamous- Marauders. James turned to face her. "What's the matter this time, Evans? And hurry it up, I was doing something important," he said coolly, although an amused expression was set on his face.

"The matter! I'LL TELL YOU WHAT THE MATTER IS, POTTER!" Lily yelled in a louder voice, a very angry expression on her face. It seemed as if she was gathering up all her self control to stop herself from killing the person in front of her. "MY HAIR! DO YOU NOT NOTICE, POTTER, THAT MY HAIR, WHOSE COLOR IS SUPPOSED TO BE RED, NOW RESEMBLES A RAINBOW?" She took no care at the fact that they were being stared at by the people in the Gryffindor common room, who were bracing themselves for the worst. It was well known that a fight between James Potter and Lily Evans was not a pretty sight, although it was rather amusing to watch.

"Really Evans, I don't get it," James said innocently, although his amused expression was replaced with a roguish smirk "First you accuse me of something without proof, although I do admit that I did it, and then you complain of the result? Personally, I think that the color, or should I say colors, are a nice change from that glaring red".

"POTTER YOU ARROGANT, AGGRAVATING PRAT TELL ME THE SPELL TO CHANGE MY HAIR BACK TO NORMAL BEFORE I STRANGLE YOU!" Lily shouted, getting even madder at what he had said.

"No way," James said defiantly. "You didn't tell me the spell when YOU turned MY hair all pink and poofy. I had to walk around for two weeks looking like a gay clown before Remus found the spell to change it back to normal!"

Despite her anger, she had to smile smugly as she said, "You deserved it. You transfigured the book I was reading during dinner into a pile of worms when you knew perfectly well how I hate them! I almost threw up my dinner because of them!"

"I wouldn't have done that if you hadn't charmed my broom so that I couldn't ride it for a whole week!" he retorted.

"You made my Potions Essay disappear! Do you know how hard I worked on it?" Lily said, her voice getting close to a yell.

"Who cares how hard you worked on it? Don't forget, when I once passed you note saying that you were an overbearing, perfectionist bitch, you stood up and showed it McGonagall, resulting in me getting another detention! Do you realize how agonizing it is to be sitting in that old bat's classroom, copying 7 chapters of our Transfiguration book for 3 whole hours!" James roared, getting angry.

"I wouldn't have done that if you didn't humiliate me by snooping through my trunk in the Heads' common room and enlarging, and hanging those embarrassing pictures of me when I was eight! Do you know how embarrassing that was?"

"NEED I REMIND YOU THAT YOU WERE THE ONE WHO SPREAD THE RUMOR THAT I WAS HAVING A SECRET, TORRID AFFAIR WITH SIRIUS! YOU DAMAGED HIS REPUTATION AS WELL AS MINE!"

"YOU, SIRIUS, AND THE REST OF THE BlOODY SCHOOL GOT OVER IT, DIDN'T YOU? I WOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT IF YOU DIDN'T START TELLING EVERYONE THAT I WORKED PART TIME AT A CLUD, 'SERVICING' GUYS SO I COULD FINISH SCHOOL, WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNTRUE, IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING!" Lily yelled.

"Oh please, that was ages ago" James scoffed. Then he went back to shouting. "REMEMBER THE TIME WHEN----"

"WILL THE BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP ALREADY!" Sirius Black and Kirsten Fletcher, one of Lily's best friends, yelled in unison.

Lily and James stared at them. Then, Lily childishly stuck out her tongue at James, who glared in response.

"Thank you," Sirius and Kirsten said. "Now, what were you guys fighting about this time?" Sirius asked.

James, Kirsten, and Lily stared at him as if he was a dense lunatic and Lily shrieked, "Isn't it obvious? My HAIR! That jerk you call a 'best friend' won't tell me the spell to change it back to normal!"

"I have good reason not to, Evans" James said. "If I do it, it means you win, and, as I have made it clear these past few years, nobody, and I mean nobody, wins against James Potter, especially not a red-head, green-eyed perfectionist suck-up like you". Then, he added as an afterthought, "Wait, scratch the last eight words I said. I meant, rainbow- haired, green-eyed, perfectionist suck-up like you" He then smirked smugly when he saw that Lily was about to blow up again.

"POTTER YOU------" Lily was about to say, or rather, yell, but was interrupted by a very annoyed looking Kirsten.

"James Potter, Lily Evans, for the sake of our sanity, enough! Lily, stop yelling before I put a silencing charm on you. James, turn her hair back to normal before I tell everyone what happened during the Dawson's barbecue party last summer," she said.

Not wanting anyone else to find out that, during the Dawson's party, he had fallen into a trap, which was initially intended to catch gnomes that had resulted in him being hung on top of a tree, he took out his wand and said, an annoyed tone in his voice, "Fine, fine. Really, it sucks being neighbors with your worst enemy's best friend". He quickly did the spell and left with Sirius, but not before he and Lily yelled, "I hate you!" to each other.

When he was gone, Lily turned to Kirsten and said, "Why did Potter have to exist in the same planet?"

And as James and Sirius walked away, James also said, "Why did Evans have to exist in the same planet?" They both had no idea that they had said it at the same time.

Hehe. As they say, great minds think alike.
