Chapter One
"When are you going to stop abusing me?" Sirius grumbled, rubbing his now bluish arm after Lily had literally punched him. "When you stop trying to match make me with your idiot friends." Lily replied calmly. In an attempt to explain his rather-regretted action of even suggesting James, Sirius said, "All I'm saying is you should have someone whose shoulder you can cry on, someone you can trust..." Sirius launched into his tirade of reasons why Lily should get a boyfriend and stop treating him as a punching bag. Lily had learnt to block out all material of such waste matters and she walked on, oblivious to Sirius' pointless reasoning. When he had finished a few centuries later or so Lily thought, she muttered "Bye Sirius" and gave the password to the Fat Lady. She stepped into the dorm calmly, leaving a very disgruntled Sirius to hurry in before the door closed. She walked up to her dorm, tired after such a grueling day of Sirius and his nagging. Inside her dorm she merely muttered a greeting to her roommates before flopping onto her bed, tossing her bag onto the bedside table, also knocking off one of her roommate Stacy's books, much to Stacy's disgust. Before she knew it, she was slipping out of reality, into a dream...
...It was the night of the annual prom and Lily was getting ready. She was so excited that James was her date. She had been anticipating this night since forever, although everyone had thought she despised him. She took out her newly bought evening gown and slipped it on, admiring herself in the mirror. She did a little catwalk and flashed an award-winning smile in the mirror. It was quite a funny sight for someone like Lily to be doing this sort of thing. Suddenly, James burst through the door with a bunch of flowers in his hand and he said rather dramatically, "There you are Lily." He walked up to her and complimented her on her choice of dress, and she blushed quite noticeably. James took Lily by the hand and led her out of the room. In the great hall, which had been drowned in pink hearts and flowers, they danced to the great music. In the spotlight, Lily felt like she was drowning in James' eyes. "You're so beautiful Lily."
"Lily!!! What is wrong with her?" Stacy asked over the very audible giggles. Lily squinted as she opened her eyes and nearly died when she saw all her roommates' faces practically hot pink and overwhelmed with laughter. She bolted upright and asked very cautiously, "What was I doing..." Stacy was turning purple trying to stifle her laughter. Lily screeched, "Tell me now!!!!!! Whether I want to know or not!!!" Another roommate Vanessa tried to explain in her laughter. When Lily was informed that she had been smiling oddly and giggling and muttering "James" in her unconsciousness state, she grabbed her wand in a futile attempt to perform a memory charm on each and every one of them. Stacy grabbed the wand and no sooner had she done that, Lily was being pinned to the bed by the laughter- engulfed girls. Lily's eyes dilated in fear as she had foreseen what was coming. "Does Lily like someone.... *giggle* Lily shrieked in violent protest. She turned a bright red as she screamed "HELL NO" over and over again. Truth was, she did have a major crush on James, regardless of the thousand times he had changed her colour. Just then, Sirius burst through the door, grumbling, "Honestly what is your problem? You girls are screaming and giggling twenty-four seven.do you have some sort of vocal projection disorder?" The minute Lily saw Sirius she knew she would be in for it if he found out, so she yelled as loud as she could manage, "SIRIUS!!! They are planning to paralyze you and give you a makeover and take a picture and show everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! RUN WHILE YOU CAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Sirius Black was amazingly not intellectually challenged. He did not buy Lily's story and so he yawned and said in quite a composed manner, "Lillian, I know you well enough. You know me well enough to know that I am not intellectually challenged. I am insulted Lillian!" Lily made a face and continued shrieking in protest. "NO!!! NEVER!!! I SHALL SUE!!! GO AND CURL UP IN A CORNER AND DIEEEEE!!!!!" Sirius, quite smartly, just stood against a wall and smirked in amusement.
