DISCLAIMER I do not own the world of Harry Potter, (though I wish I did) anything you do not recognize is mine.

Just then Snape entered the great hall. It was quite a sight; his hair was sparkling clean and had been dyed beach blonde. It was also permed and put up into a beehive style. What's better was that he had no clue of his current feminine appearance. He was just walking in haughtily as usual. So when someone called out "Love you style Severus" he smirked at the marauders and sat down vainly.

The boys, who couldn't control themselves any longer, burst into fits of laughter, Sirius rolling around on the floor. Lily herself couldn't help but give a small giggle. The site of Snape with a perm was just too much. When James saw this his eyes glistened and a smirk played on his face. Then all of a sudden Remus pulled out a magical camera and started flashing pictures whist Sirius, who had finally recovered from his fit of laughter yelled "Strike a pose Sevvy"

Lily then inwardly reminded herself to ask Remus for some copies so she could put them into her photo album. Lily was swiftly interrupted from her thoughts by the sound of Sirius voice, he was talking to James. "So Prongs, Snivillous's hair is all clean. Washed to perfection in fact" he said.

Soooo thought Lily he would know as he must have helped with the prank.

"You took that literally?" asked James laughing at his friend's antics.

What literally? thought Lily.

"Always Prongs" replied Sirius with a stupidly large grin on his face.

"But one thing" James teased "you forgot the pigs"

Okay James has officially gone off his rocker, what does he mean pigs? Thought Lily.

"No we didn't"

"Where are they then?" Prompted James.

"Hey look over there" exclaimed Sirius. James swivelled around; Sirius took this advantage by pointing his wand to the roof and muttering an incantation, instantly two chandeliers transfigured into the two pigs he had gotten prior, but these had miniature angel wings and were fluttering around the hall clumsily. So that's what the pigs were for thought Lily. James turned back around and frowned at Sirius.

"I don't see anything" He said.

"Oh well, look, pigs" said Sirius gesturing upwards rapidly whilst the whole time keeping eye contact with James.

"Well if you never, Pigs can fly" James said quietly to himself.

That's when Professor Dumbledore popped up out of the blue and said "With a little help from magic Cough fairy-dust cough anything can happen" Then he strode off humming happily to himself.

James, Remus and Sirius where down in the common room Relaxing and Every now and then discussing certain topics Cough lily Cough. The fire was roaring keeping the warm on the freezing winter's night. James had been rather cheerful all day thanks to the boys. But now he sat down to think about it he realised that just because pigs could fly didn't mean Lily would suddenly fall head over heels in love with him. He decided to voice his worries to the others.

"Sirius, you do know that prank you played won't affect how Lily feels about me?" Sirius looked at James with a look that clearly said he hadn't thought it would and had thought that James knew that.

"Yeeaah"

Damn Im so stupid I really thought Lily would like me because some stupid animal could become airborne, huh, stupid, stupid, stupid!

"Speaking of the flower" said Sirius, nodding his head toward the girl's dormitories. James turned his head and saw Lily with a determined look on her face. God she is beautiful. Thought James. Lily was clutching a blue book with golden writing on the front displaying the title in fancy cursive "Emma by Jane Austin"

"James" she said dragging out the word. She wanted his seat, he knew she did. She always sat there on a Sunday night to relax before a week full of studying. James hadn't even thought of that before he had sat down.

"Would you like something flower?" he asked. He loved winding her up, besides; she looked so cute when she was frustrated, with her jaw clenched and red colour in her cheeks.

Lily let out a huge sigh then said as calm as possible "James may I please have my seat" emphasizing the word 'please' and 'my'.

James observed the seat and all the others around. They all looked the same to him; he wondered why she needed this specific chair. "What's wrong with any of the other chairs? Why this one Lily?" he inquired.

"Because, it's a lot squishier than all the others and I always sit there" she replied, and she was speaking from first hand experience too. She had tested every single chair in the common room and that one was by far the most comfy. Being at the school for six years and reading every weekend gave her a lot of time to test pilot each chair. "Plus its blue" she added.

"Hmmmm, Mooney what should I do mate?" He asked his friend who was rather tired and peaky looking, as there was a full moon coming up soon.

"Give up you chair to the fair maiden" said Remus being the chivalrous Gentlemen, as usual. But James what in the mood to play around with Lily, so he asked Sirius also.

"Well James, It sounds like you have yourself a prime spot there. So I suggest you bargain for it" replied Sirius with a huge grin plastered on his face.

Now that's a good idea thought James. He silently praised Sirius for his Genius suggestion.

"What do you want for it?" said Lily cautiously, She was obviously expecting him to come out with something annoying like a date request or a trip to a broom closet, but was pleasantly surprised when he asked for some help with his charms homework. He never was as good as Lily with charms, he was much better at transfiguration and defence against the dark arts. But if he wanted to become an auror like his father he would have to keep his grades up. Plus, that was perfect time he could use to show Lily how perfect they were for each-other.

"Ok, sure. Now shove it" she said.

James laughed, the said smirking "I've always loved my women feisty"

There's the James I know thought Lily going slightly red from embarrassment. But before she could come back with a witty comment there was a shrill yell from the portrait hole. "Black, Lupin, Pettigrew" It was a Dishevelled looking Professor McGonagall being swiftly followed by a flying pig. This earned quite a few stares from the younger students, for the older students were quite used to McGonagall bursting in and cursing (not literally) the marauders.

As Remus, James, Peter and Sirius sat at the back of history of magic they discussed the boy's punishment. It turned out that they all had a shared detention with filch cleaning the entire collection of school trophies by hand without any magic. "No need to worry thought right guys" said Remus. They all nodded their heads in agreement except James who sat there looking utterly confused. How could they not worry? Filch will want them spotless and no wands allowed, they were confiscated at the door, then given back at the end. He decided to ask them their plan.

"Um, why not worry?"

The marauders all chuckled and Remus gave him an 'isn't it obvious' look before resting his hand on James shoulder and saying casually "Because you will be their doing it for us with your wand"

James sighed, that was the night he was going to start tutoring with Lily. Oh-well he thought I will just have to reschedule. He then turned to face the front of the class and pretended to take notice of what Professor Binns was droning on about.

It was Finally Lunchtime and Lily sat next to Belle and Ellie. Chatting away happily about everyone's latest crush. Belle seemed to have a thing for a Ravenclaw 7thyear, Brandon Mathews. He was bout the same height as James (very tall) and Keeper and captain for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. Ellie liked someone new every five seconds, but she was currently explaining in great depth how gorgeous Steven Hughes was, a 6th year Hufflepuff. That's when the conversation rounded on Lily.

"So Lily, Who is your lucky fella'?" asked Belle "You still hate James, right?"

Lily laughed at her friends grudge against James, "No, I don't hate him Belle. You know that. Remember, James and I are friends now"

Lily saw Belle stiffen and become more restricted. "Just friends right?" she forced out. Feeling sick at the idea of anything more with him.

"God yes" said Lily.

Belle let out her breath and relaxed visibly, "Good" she said.

The next class they had was potions with the Slytherins. Their teacher, Professor Slughorn liked to play favourites and James, Remus and Lily happened to be top of his list. As they entered the classroom they heard Slughorn's booming voice call out their names. "James, Remus, Lily" he said "Your coming to my next Slug-club party? Yes?"

Lily looked at James helplessly, desperately hoping he would come up with an excuse not to go. The Slug club meetings were always terrible. Slughorn invites a lot of important and boring people and shows them off. Lily remembered one particular occasion when she met the founder of the daily prophet newspaper. He was a boring old fart that droned on about nothingness, James caught her gaze and gave her a look that said 'Don't worry, leave it to me'.

"When did you say it was, sorry?" asked Remus. Lily could see he was rapidly searching his mind for a believable excuse, merely asking questions to gain himself time.

"Thursday evening M'boy" Replied Slughorn "6.30-10.30" Boring and long, Thought Lily.

This was when James decided to join the conversation, "Oh, I'm sorry sir; me and Lily are doing some very important studying that night what we definitely not miss out on." He said smoothly. Lily gave him a thankful look inwardly wondering how he could come up with an excuse so easily.

She then turned to Slughorn and smiled confidently as to show that what James had said was true. Slughorn looked extremely disappointed that two of his most favoured students wouldn't be attending. "What about you Remus M'boy?" he said "You can bring a friend if you like" Remus gave everyone desperate looks but got back all unenthusiastic faces. Remus was about to tell Slughorn he would be attending alone when Allie took pity on him and agreed to go. Remus positively beamed at her thankfully.

"Well then that's settled then M'boy" said Slughorn happy at least one of his favourites was going. "Anyway, must start the lesson now, every please sit down and start heating your cauldrons"

Later on that evening when all the lessons had finished the girls sat discussing the day. In between the conversations about Sirius getting his hand stuck in an enchanted vase and James lack of being arrogant and not asking out Lily came the discussion Allie had been dreading all day since potions.

"So Allie, what are you going to wear on you date with Remus? Something really pretty I hope" asked Ellie as she sat filing her nails.

"It's not a date" assured Allie "but I was just going to wear my jeans and hoodie anyway" when Allie said that Ellie cringed and gave her an appalled look

"You are not wearing merely that on your 'not-date' with Remus" replied Ellie " Im taking you shopping"

As much as Allie had tried to come up with an excuse not to go Ellie always came up with a solution to the problem Allie found. Her last hope was saying that they would get caught but Ellie rebutted that aswell by telling the Marauders (excluding Remus) what she was doing. First of all they laughed and teased Allie for having to go, then they gave them the invisibility cloak James owned and told them a suitable secret passageway out of Hogwarts into Hogsmede village.

So, currently Allie was being dragged along by Ellie and surprisingly Lily. When Allie had enquired about it Lily merely said every girl had a weakness and clothes's shopping was hers.

"Ooooohh, Madam Sheek, my favourite store!" squealed Ellie as the approached the shop.

Meanwhile…..

"Hey Remus, buddy old pal' said James. They (the Marauders) were down in the kitchens lounging about and stuffing their faces. Remus was off in La la land, and James and Sirius wanted to talk to him.

"Mooney ya goose, watcha thinking about? Ill give you a penny" said Sirius.

Remus sighed at his friends incapability to remember sayings properly and decided to correct him. "The saying is, 'A penny for your thoughts' Padfoot" Sirius just grumbled

"Yeah, jeez Padfoot, get it right" said James sarcastically.

"So, I think this colour really brings out the green in her eyes" Said Ellie.

"Oh, but this colour really matched her highlights superbly" Said Lily.

These comments went on for hours and hours until Allie got severely bored and decided to let them choose, which is what they had been planning from the start anyway. "Annoy her so much, she lets us choose" was there motto I know not very creative, sorry

When the girls finally got back, the other two were up waiting for them. Lily wondered why, since Alice and Belle were definitely not the type to wait up over a piece of clothing. She decided to ask, but Ellie beat her to it.

"Um, what's up? Why you guys still up?"

"The boys wanted to see us in the kitchen when you get back, so lets go" said Belle.

Allie looked hesitant to leave after curfew but knew if she argued she wouldn't win anyway, so she followed the others.

"Gosh, what is taking the girls so long" wondered out loud, James and Sirius exchanged Knowing looks; they knew exactly what was taking them so long. But they played the innocent card anyway.

"Probably just doing there hair or summit like that" said Sirius.

Finally the girls entered through the portrait chatting animatedly

"Took you long enough!" exclaimed Peter

"Anyway, now you're hear who wants to play…" said James

"Truth or dare!" shouted Sirius happily.
