Chapter One: Wise Up!
Authors Note: Heya! So this is my first ever James and Lily fanfic! -Insert clap here-! So I guess you all know the drill, I'd like you to review! You don't have to though! So, enjoy the story!
I'm away laughing on a fast camel!
Love, Caroline! ()
"Lily!"
Lily Evans, upon hearing her name, spun around in the middle of Kings Cross Station, focusing on a tall girl with long blond hair.
"Hey, Marly!"
She hugged her best friend. " So, fifth year, huh? Joy. Exclamations of joy!"
Marlene laughed. "So, shall we?"
"We shall!" replied Lily.
The two girls took a run at the wall. Marlene shrank back; she always expected to crash headfirst.
They stopped running when they heard the gentle hum of the gleaming Hogwarts Express, and the buzz and chat of most of the student population.
Lily laughed, and turning around, she saw a small brown-haired, pale girl.
"Alice! Come on!"
Alice grinned and walked over. "Hey guys! Seen anyone else?"
Lily narrowed her eyes suspiciously. " And who exactly would you mean by 'anyone'?"
Alice smirked. "Why, the Marau-."
"EVANS!"
Groaning inwardly, Lily turned and saw a boy with very untidy black hair, which he was in the process of messing up even more.
"Hey, Marly, Al! And if it isn't Evans!" Sirius Black joined James in standing beside them.
"Hey Lily," James winked. "Still harbouring your eh... true feelings for me, shall we say?"
Lily's voice became sugary sweet. "It's true."
"Now, that's not very ni- wait, what?"
"I have been harbouring new feelings for you."
James smirked. He'd known all along.
"To say the least, they're a bit more profound than last year's. You have become more stuck up than a Malfoy, more irritating than Peeves and you bludgeoned me with owls every day on HOLIDAYS. Just when I thought your life couldn't get any sadder..."
Everybody rolled their eyes at James and Lily.
"If it weren't for the fact that they're getting married someday (and that James would probably attack me), I might just do a Bruno Flumm on it." Sirius muttered darkly.
"What hang them both upside-down in the middle of the Great Hall, while letting Peeves have a free run with water balloons?"
"Until they confess their luurrrve for one another? Incidentally, that given me a thought..."
Lily and James boarded the train hurriedly.
