Hey Ch. 2 is here so R&R (seriously, I'm getting lots of views but no reviews) This first paragraph moves kinda fast, like two months.

LILYS POV
No No No No! I was not going to date James Potter. There had to be some way that I could get out of this. Luckily the OWL prep was all the teachers could talk, and give homework, about.

Finally after all that work and testing was over. The OWL's were almost over, ending with DADA.

"Five more minutes!"Called out Professor Flitwick, I yawned, I had just finished the extra section. I felt so relieved. These were supposed to be so hard, and I had studied forever.

What is the proper way to dispel a Raggunkle? The test asked. How obvious! I mean everyone know that Raggunkle's were attracted to flowers so all you'd do is lead it somewhere unpopulated and full of flowers, like a meadow, and whola! No more annoyances from Raggunkles.

I stretched, as Flitwick squealed, "Quills down, please. That means you too, Stebbins." He smirked. "Please remain seated while I collect your parchment. Accio! Now everybody you are free to go." I got up and ran over to where Alice, Emmeline, and Marlene the only three normal people in my year, were sitting.

"C'mon, we are free from exams. Now Lily I know your very disappointed, but we can still have fun." She smirked.

"Oh, shut it. You know I'm as relieved as you." I laughed and grabbed her hand. I dragged her to the lake, we kicked off our shoes and jumped into the shallow end of the lake. We could see the giant squid milling about the bottom. Suddenly SPLASH A spray of cold water washed over me. Alice giggled.

"Oh, oh no! Oh no you didn't!" I yelled and the splash war commenced. Finally it ended in a draw and we stretched out on the smooth grass with only our feet in the water. The sounds of the conversations of other filled our ears. James' voice was audible over all, at first it was normal talk. Snitches, transfiguration, etc. then suddenly,

"Snivellus."Rang out and the whole crowd silenced. Everyone turned to see James and Sirius standing against Severus.

"Alright, Snivellus?" asked James.

Lightning fast Severus had his wand out.

"Expelliarmus" James cried out, and Severus' wand flew through the air. It was immediately followed by the Impedimenta yelled by Sirius, who knocked Severus off his feet. As James and Sirius advanced on Severus James shot a look over to us. I rolled my eyes. What was he going to do to show off this time?

"How'd the exam go, Snivelly?" said James.

"I was watching him," Sirius mocked. "his nose was touching the parchment. There'll be great big grease marks all over it, they won't be able to read a word." He barked out a laugh, if not everyone was watching before now they were. Severus, no matter about how I was his friend, was unpopular with most of the students.

"You wait-" Severus panted, "you wait-"

"Wait for what?" Sirius snapped. "What are you going to do to us? Wipe your nose on us?" Severus let out a rant of unintelligible swear words and hexes intermingled.

"Someone needs to wash out their mouth!' Said James coldly. "Scourgify." Pink soup bubbles came soaring out of his mouth, making him choke. Finally I could take no more.

"Leave him ALONE!" I shouted.

"All right Evans?" He asked me pleasenly.

"Very fine, Potter, although I don't appreciate your lack of listening skills, Leave him alone!" I quipped. "Honestly, what's he done to you?" James looked at me and contemolated his answer.

"Well, it's more the fact that he exists. If you know what I mean…" many of the students laughed. My rage was beyond boiling point, I was just ice cold.

"You think your funny, don't you Potter?" I asked, my eyes slits. "But your just an arrogant bullying toerag, Potter. Now leave him alone!"

"Well, now, since you are going out with me, I'll stop for a kiss." He grinned at me cheekily.

"Oh, you think I'm still going out with you! I wouldn't go out with you if it was a choice between you and the giant squid." She screeched. The impedimenta jinx was wearing off and Severus reached for his wand.

"Bad luck mate." Said Sirius as James ran his hand through his hair, prat. "Oi!" They both turned, and James' wand was out within a second "Levicorpus!" The spell was only heard by me and the marauders, as James had mumbled it, then Severus was pulling into the air by his feet, his ropes fell down to his face, as his arms flailed about, to reveal skinny pallid legs and graying underpants.

A majority of the students cheered, aside from me I was furius.

"Let him down." I said in a cool controlled voice.

"Certainly," James replied with a lopsided grin and flicked his wand. Severus toppled to the ground, he scrambled to his feet wand out when

"Locomotor Motis!" cried Sirius. Severus keeled over stiff as a board.

"LEAVE HIM ALONE!' I screamed my cool blown and my full rage seeping out, and my wand in my hand.

"Oh, Evans, don't make me hex you." Said James earnestly, I glared at him.

"Potter, I would be more afraid of my wand if I were you." I snapped at him. "So let him go or I swear I will hex you with the bat boogey hex so badly that there will be no reversal." James gulped and glanced at Sirius. James flicked his wand and the curse was lifted.

"There you go," James said as Severus sat up. "Lucky Evans was here, Snivellus-"

"I don't need help from filthy little mudbloods like her!" Severus interrupted, then with a flick of his wand a gash appeared on James' face. James growled and spun on him, than he glanced at me. I blinked.

"Fine. I won't bother in the future, and wash your pants Snivellus." I said cooly and began walking away.

"Apologize to Evans!" James roared.

"I don't want you to make him apologize." I snapped, rounding on James. "You're as bad as he is!"

"What?" James cried, "but I would never call you a – a you-know-what!"

"Messing up your hair because you think it looks cool to look like you just got off your broomstick, showing off your stupid Snitch, walking down corridors and hexing anyone who annoys you because you can – I'm surprised your broomstick can even get off the ground with that fat head of yours. You make me SICK!" I screamed at him, letting out all my anger. Then I stormed off, James started running after me.

"Evans!" he yelled, I ignored him. "EVANS!" He yelled.

I guess that was one way to get out of a date with James Potter.

Well there we go, R&R and I'll update ASAP! :-D –
