Lily spent the next week avoiding James; this was made exceedingly difficult due to the fact that they were Head Boy and Girl. During rounds Lily kept her mouth shut and tried not to look at him. James however was far from happy with the arrangement no matter how hard he tried he couldn't get Lily's lips out of his mind.

Lily was lying on the couch in the Library when Alice and Claire walked in. Alice had been going out with Frank Longbottom for a while now they probably would have been Head boy and girl together if it wasn't for….lets just say it involved a sofa, chocolate sauce and wet clothing while taking the lords name in vain. Claire on the other hand was more promiscuous than her two friends and liked to get around. Rumor had it she and Sirus were competing over who could get laid more. Alice pulled Lily out of the couch

"C'mon its about to start"

"I already told you I don't like Quidditch"

Lily pushed the image of James taking her for a fly out of her mind. Claire sighed

"No you idiot the dueling finals is about to start"

(Allow me to explain, although Quidditch was the more favored of the wizarding sports Dueling was still quite popular. An American Auror started the Dueling World tournament 60 years ago and it was renowned for its more violent results i.e. if you don't want to get your bones broken it's not something I recommend)

The girls walked in the common room to bursts of shouts and people screaming in front of a projection of a huge Dueling arena

"Lucien's gotta win it"

"No way man the Russians has won it 5 years straight"

"C'mon England"

Suddenly the whole room went quiet as the screen showed a man address the crowd.

"Ladies and Gentlemen a present to you the 60TH Dueling World Tournament Final, in the left we have our previous world champion representing his country of Russia Dimitri Zarchovsky"

a man stepped up on the plate he was tall yet quite thin his face showed years of experience and zero fear.

"And on the right an unknown to the sport of Dueling, but this person has fought his way through to the final round representing his country of Great Britain Lucien Cross.

Lucien stepped onto the plate, and then the cheering fans of Gryffindor Common room stared gobsmacked in disbelief eventually one stood up and screamed

"That's Gabriel Cole! He dropped out of school in year 4"

Lily then noticed Claire staring at him with complete confusion Lily asked her

"What's wrong?"

"I slept with him!"

"Argh why am I not surprised"

Then the match began to start, the referee literally ran out of the way but instead of screaming hexes the two just stood staring at each other. Lily whispered to Alice

"What are they doing?"

"There using legimens and occumelency to try and predict what the other is going to do while blocking their own thoughts"

Suddenly the starring stopped and the two started battling it out Lucien ducked and weaved while blasting out spells back at the Russian who dueled with equal ferocity. The crowd watched in awe as the two duelists collided against each other. Dimitri flung spell after spell at him but Lucien fought back with a sick smile on his face. Suddenly Lucien in a flash transformed into a monkey and jumped over the Russians spells and quick as a flash transforming back into his human form he shouted

"Fuck you comrade Incarcium!"

a jet of white light shot straight into the Russians chest sending him flying into the wall. There was a cheer of joy as the crowd and Gryffindor erupted into happiness. Unfortunately it was at that moment that McGonagall walked into the room

"What is going on here who is responsible for this?"

Suddenly all heads turned to a laughing James whose grinning face caused Lily to fume and blush at the same time

"Potter this is not proper behavior detention!"

Then James smirked

"But Lily said we could have a party I just set it up"

McGonagall turned on Lily with a look of disappointment on her face

"Ms Evans even though you are Head Girl does not mean you are exempt from the rules, both of you will serve a detention now all of you of to bed"

McGonagall and the rest of Gryffindor started leaving the room James looked at Lily who was literally shaking with rage, James turned to Sirius and spoke

"How fucked am I?"

"You know that guy Hitler from Muggle studies?"

"Yeah what about him?"

"Remember what happened to him?"

"No what?"

"Well after he took poison he was chucked on a ditch set on fire and then shot at"

"Ooh ouch any suggestions"

"Run like hell and don't sleep for a week"

"See ya!"

And with that James ran out the room while lily screamed at him

"James!"
