Disclaimer: I own nothing.

A/N: I've never written a story about James and Lily before until now, and I hope you like it. It's about rich popular boy James Nicholas Potter being in his fifth year and really meeting beautiful, sophisticated, quiet Lily Andrea Evans. Of course they hate each other he's a Gryffindor and she's a Slytherin (but not evil). He's having trouble in his Potions class and if he doesn't get his grades up he'll be kicked off the Quidditch team. So Professor Benzalk (the potions master) sends him to Lily and at first they hate it… but then they find out that they have a lot in common and actually like each other. Soon they fall in love, and just have to hope people will except it.

Title: It Doesn't Matter

Chapter One: BUSTED

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Excuse me sir, but Head Master Semitone's needs to see James Potter." A tall girl about the age of 15 said politely.

Professor Benzalk looked up from his papers and scowled. "He's taking a very important potions test right now."

"But Professor Forbes (The Head Master) needs to see him, it's very important." The girl said again plastering a fake smile on her face.

"Oh very well Potter, take your stuff and leave my class now." Benzalk said glaring at James like he was a fungus in a jar or something.

"Yes sir." James said trying to hide his grin as he packed his stuff and headed out of class.

Once they were out of ear shot James cracked up and said, "Good job Em I would've freaked! Forbe's needs me? Where'd you come up with that? I definitely would've failed that test if I'd stayed in that dungeon with the King of Darkness."

Emerson grinned, she was proud of herself too she didn't think she'd be able to get him out of class either but she did it! "I know, I know I'm special you don't have to tell me." She said walking up the stairs and beckoning for him to hurry. "Sirius, Remus, and ugh Peter are already up in the common room."

"Oh yippy!" James said in a high-pitched girl voice. "We will all have so much fun studying for a test we'll never pass, and that our kids will probably fail."

Emerson laughed as they reached the Fat Lady. "Slytherin Sucks major monkey." She said and the door swung open.

James hopped in then put on a French accent, bowed and said, "Madame."

"Merci." Em said airily.

As they walked in pillows being thrown in their faces met them.

"Gah took you long enough Em didn't it?" Sirius asked as he walked over to her and slid his arm around her waist. You see Sirius and Emerson were going out.

Em giggled and said, "Sorry Siri."

James and Remus pretended to throw up as James jumped in a chair by the fire.

"Like gag me with a spoon!" Remus said in American valley-girl voice.

Em grinned and sat in a love seat with Sirius who had his arm around her.

James rolled his eyes and took his potions notes out of his bag and began to look over them.

"So did you hear?" Peter asked nervously.

"Hear what?" James asked not taking his eyes off his notes.

"Hear about the tutors, the Quidditch team players who aren't passing some of their classes are going to get."

"WHAT!" James, Remus, and Sirius shouted standing up.

Peter's left eye twitched, his neck bent sideways, and his right ear sort of waggled, he always went a little weird when people made loud noises. He didn't do well in the Great Hall.

"Sorry Peter… but uh you can't be serious. Now can you?" Remus asked hopefully.

"I-I'm sorry t-to say I am… I over h-heard Professor Forbes t-talking to Madame Vert." Madame Vert is their Quidditch trainer. They have their team captains and everything but Madame Vert is the one who's basically in charge of keeping them on the team. James Potter is the team's seeker, Sirius Black and Remus Lupin are the team's beaters, and Emerson (Brown), Lindey York, and Hayden Marks are the chasers. And their Keeper, the captain, Ashley Hawk.

"I bet this was the fruits idea." Emerson said shaking her head and laughing.

"You're right! That stupid fruity piece of shit, I bet this was Ashley's idea. He is so GAY!" Remus shouted throwing his hands over his face and sinking into his chair (A/N: Okay I know the cuss word went a little overboard but I mean he is an angry jock. Come on people you have to take that into consideration, lol). Like I said before Ashley Hawk is there captain on the Quidditch team, he's a boy though… and he wants to be a girl. So basically he's gay and they all call him fruit, fruity, gay, apple, orange (i.e. fruit) basically anything degrading. (a/n: I have nothing against gay/ lesbian people okay! I just put it in the story to make it more interesting. SO no offense if your gay, I DID NOT mean to offend you.)

"No it was mine." Said a sharp familiar voice from behind them. They all winced and turned around face to face with Professor Killong (Deputy head Mistress and head of Gryffindor house). She was the meanest Deputy Head Mistress in all of Hogwarts history, she basically didn't like anybody not even people from her own house.

"Hello there Professor, we were just talking about how erm, wonderful it is to be in such a great house like Gryffindor ruled under such a nice and forgiving Lady as yourself." James said in a sugary tone that he seldom used.

"I'm so sure Mr. Potter." Professor Killong said icily rolling her eyes, "In fact I'm so sure that your not supposed to be here right at this moment, now are you?" She added glaring at them.

All of them squirmed under her malicious stare. "Well we uh… w-"

"PROFFESSOR THIS IS FOR REAL! I WAS IN PROFFESSOR B's CLASS AND WE WERE TAKING A TEST THAT I WAS GONNA FAIL AND EM WAS JUST TRYING TO HELP ME AND… please don't hurt me." James whimpered giving her puppy dog eyes.

"Well that's exactly the reason why all of you pathetic athletic students are getting tutors," She said cringing at the thought of athletes.

"Then could you at least spare us some agony? By telling us who we're going to be forced to associate with during this semester?" Sirius asked glaring at her bravely.

She returned his glare gladly and said, "This semester?" Which after she promptly laughed in a 'I love to torture you' sort of way. "This arrangement will be going on all year long."

"Alright then… but that wasn't my question, Now will you please tell us who we're going to be paired with?" Sirius said with an unkind edge to his tone.

"You will all report to a meeting to find out, after lunch today. That is final." With that Professor Killong left leaving them there.

"Well hey… think of it this way at least she didn't send us back to class." Emerson said helpfully looking around at the glum faces of her best friends.

"Oh and one more thing get back to class." They turned around again and saw that it was still Professor Killong. They all packed their stuff up and trudged silently out of the common room and back to class.
