CHAPTER 1
James:
The sun was setting out over the horizon, sending rays of purple, pink, yellow, and orange into the sky. Lily sighed in pleasure and James wrapped his arms around her. Everything was perfect. He had his beautiful Lily sitting in his lap, he had her love, had had everything he ever wanted! Months ago she hated him and wished him to leave her alone, but he never did until she realized that he was the man of her dreams.
"Oh James, I can't believe I was such a fool! I should have known from the beginning that you were the one for me!" Lily exclaimed, "And I thought I was smart!"
"Don't worry my flower," James replied while running his fingers through her soft and flaming red hair, "At least we have each other now and that's all that matters."
She turned her body to look at him; her emerald eyes were sincere and burning with passion. "You are so wonderful, but I still can't believe how stupid I was!"
James laughed and then suggested coolly, "How about making up for all of it with a kiss?" Lily giggled and nodded. James then leaned down slowly to reach her luscious, red lips and was about to press them with his own...
"PRONGS!!"
James woke up with a start, falling from his bed to the floor. "Ow." He moaned while picking himself up from the floor. That was going to leave a bruise. He squinted, reaching around for his glasses and he felt someone put them into his hands. "Thanks." He then muttered and slipped them on, instantly his vision was clear and he realized that he was standing in his room. Oh, it really was a dream. James heard sniggering and turned around.
"Merlin Padfoot, you didn't have to yell in my ear to wake me. Can't you do it in a civilized way?" He scolded the dark haired teen who was sitting down on his bed.
"Sorry mate," Sirius replied with a wide grin, "but you mum's got breakfast ready and you know how I get when I smell food."
"Barking mad."
"Exactly." He agreed, "Well hurry up or everything will get cold!"
"Like you'd wait up for me anyway!" James snorted.
"Good point!" Sirius laughed and then ran out of the room and bound down the stairs.
A few minutes later, James walked into the bright and yellow kitchen. Mrs. Potter was flitting about the room cooking and putting food onto the table, Mr. Potter was reading his morning paper, The Daily Prophet, and Sirius was eating savagely, as if he hadn't eaten in months. It was quite an amusing sight. Mrs. Potter was the first to notice his presence, "Morning dear!" She said brightly and kissed her son's forehead. Mr. Potter looked up from his paper and smiled.
"Morning, son."
"Morning Dad. So what plate is he on?" James questioned nodding his head toward his best mate.
"Finishing my third." Sirius stated. James was not surprised.
"Waking up a bit late are we?" Mr. Potter asked as James sat down at the table and started eating.
"Only after I woke him up from that fairy-tale dream of his." Sirius replied, talking with his mouth full of eggs and bacon.
"Ugh, Padfoot," James said appalled, "Talk after you chew and swallow, it's disgusting!"
"I may disgust YOU Prongsie, but don't forget that I am the hottest and most desirable man in all of Hogwarts." Sirius proudly stated. James rolled his eyes.
"And what was this fantasy dream of yours about?" Mrs. Potter asked James curiously.
"Nothing mum." James said as innocently as he could.
"Rubbish!" Sirius exclaimed, "You were dreaming about your Darling Evans. How about making up for all of it with a kiss?" Sirius said the exact words from James' dream. Had he been talking in his sleep? Sirius then started making rude snogging noises.
"I was not!" James denied, but his blushing easily gave him away.
"Evans?" Mr. Potter questioned interested in the conversation, "Isn't that the young woman who Sirius said hated you?"
"Lily doesn't hate me! She is secretly in love with me and doesn't want to admit it…..but doesn't know it yet."
Padfoot laughed, "Yeah, sure she does!" James grew frustrated at him and threw a piece of a sausage at his head. Sometimes Sirius was both his best mate and his enemy.
"Shut it Black." He growled.
"Hey!" Sirius jumped up from the table, "My hair!"
"Boys." Mr. Potter warned them.
"Who in their right mind would hate my Jamsie?" Mrs. Potter asked clearly offended.
"Well there's Evans, Snivellous, Rosier, so basically everyone who's in Slytherin, and then there's….." Sirius counted on his fingers and sat down again.
"Just so you know there is an 'I Love James Potter Club'." James pointed out.
"Yes," Sirius agreed, "but there are more members in the 'I Live and Worship Sirius Black Society'."
"For your information….."
"Boys, if you don't Apparate to Kings Cross station right now, you'll miss the train." Mr. Potter told them.
"Are you both ready?" Mrs. Potter asked concerned. The teens nodded. "Very well. Goodbye loves, write to us soon." She hugged and kissed them both lovingly. James and Sirius got up and took their luggage in their hands.
"Try not to get into detention for at least one day AFTER you arrived." Mr. Potter said warily. The two friends grinned at each other wickedly and then disappeared with a "CRACK!"
After a few seconds they found themselves in front of Kings Cross Station and Sirius grabbed a nearby trolley and loaded it with their bags.
"Hurry up!" James urged. They ran into the station at a fast pace, oblivious to the stares of the people passing, afraid that the train had left without them and didn't stop until they reached a brick wall between Platforms 9 and 10.
"Don't worry, Prongs. We have a few minutes left." Sirius panted and pointed to a clock and then gestured towards the barrier, "Ladies first." James smirked.
"How about together?" Sirius nodded at his suggestion.
"Together." He agreed. First they glanced around them for any on looking muggles. Upon seeing none, they ran swiftly, side by side, right into the Platform 9 ¾ for the seventh time in their lives.
Lily:
Lily reached the familiar magical barrier with her family, but not exactly on time for once due to traffic. Sure, she could have Apparated, but it was a kind of tradition to say goodbye to each other at the station. She remembered the first time she went through this exact wall in her first year. She was a muggle-born so she had no idea how to get to the platform. Thankfully, a kind raven-haired witch told her how to. At first, she thought that the woman was joking, but when Lily saw how serious she was….well she decided that the woman was just plain mental! I mean, who would run into a BRICK wall without impaling themselves?
When the witch saw her doubtful look, she directed her child (who was actually James Potter, but she didn't know that he was an idiot then) to show her. The boy jogged right in the direction of the wall, without hesitating, and disappeared. It was AMAZING! Of course, she had just found out about being a witch and that magic was in fact, real!
"We're going to miss you hon." Lily's mother's voice snapped her out of her reverie. She turned around, caring faces looked back at her (except for her sister, Petunia, who was glaring at her in hatred and jealousy).
"I'm going to miss you too mum!" Lily's eyes were starting to cloud with tears.
"What about me?" Her father demanded, "You can't forget about your dear old Dad."
"Of course not!" Lily hugged him tightly around his waist.
"Can we go now?" Petunia whined, "I'm supposed to meet Vernon." Nobody paid attention to her. Lily let go of her father and laughed.
"I guess I should get going now or I'll miss the train." Three heads nodded at her. "I'll send an owl as soon as possible." She then promised.
"We'll be waiting impatiently." Mrs. Evans answered. Lily bade her parent farewell and turned to her sister.
"Goodbye, Petunia." She hissed. Her horse-faced older sibling merely grunted in response. Mrs. Evans sighed; she had given up trying to make them act civil towards each other ages ago.
With a final wave, Lily sprinted through the magical barrier and was met by the Hogwarts Express, a large and beautiful scarlet train. A loud whistle indicated that the train would be leaving and she quickly jumped aboard. She walked slowly down the isle as the train started moving.
"I wonder where Alexa, Alice and Christine are." She said to herself while looking through the compartments for her three best friends. Suddenly she heard an annoyingly familiar voice calling out her name.
"EVANS!" Lily braced herself and hoped it wasn't the person she thought it was.
"HEY, EVANS!" She turned around and the first thing she saw was a pair of hazel eyes.
Oh no.
