A/N: This chapter is shorter than the others because it's just here to take space. The next chapter should have more information. I'm thinking of doing Sirius' POV again.

I woke up just like the day before, to Lily's music blasting from the bathroom. It was a song that I had never heard before, and I guessed that it was from a Muggle band. I yawned and looked over to my alarm clock and saw that it was only 6 o'clock. "LILY!" I yelled, standing up and putting on a pair of Muggle jeans. I opened my bedroom door and went to the bathroom. I knocked on the door "Lily!" I yelled again.

"What?" She snapped from inside. The music became quieter and the door opened. Lily was standing in the door way soaking wet and covered by only a towel. "What do you want?" She said.

"I-" I began. I couldn't help staring at her, she was just so amazing. She seemed to notice I was staring because she began to blush. I shook my head a little and said "I want you to not wake me up at 6 o'clock every morning with your music." There I managed to say it without staring too much. But damn, she's hot!

"Well...okay. I'll keep it down from now on," She said. She seemed kind of surprised. My turn to be surprised was next. "I'm sorry I woke you up." See? She apologized! Shocking, huh? I don't think I've ever heard those words coming from her mouth and directed to me. Well no, I have. In first year. She accidentally bumped into me on the way to breakfast the first day of classes and she said 'sorry'. But other than that, she's never apologized to me.

"It's okay," I said. I went back to my room and I heard her close the door. I fell back down on my bed and closed my eyes. "It's too early," I mumbled to myself. Half an hour later I heard Lily leave the bathroom. I got up and got my uniform out of my trunk. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower. After my shower I got changed and headed back into the Common room. Lily was sitting on the couch reading a book.

"Hey, are you heading to breakfast?" I asked her. See, I can act mature when I want to. I'm not a total idiot who always asks Lily out.

"Yeah, let me just put my book back," She stood up and headed to her room. She came out a minute later with her bookbag. "I'm ready, let's go." She walked out of the room and I quickly followed. "So, you really did help pull that prank yesterday, right?"

Bloody hell, if she starts yelling at me I'm going to run for it! "Er - yeah." I can't believe I admitted to it. She's going to kill me!

"Thought so," She smirked. "So how come you had Sirius cover for you?" Wow. She smirked, and didn't yell. What is wrong with the world?

"Lily, are you okay? You're not sick or anything. Tired maybe?" There had to be a logical reason as to why she wasn't mad at me. I mean, Lily never approves of our pranks!

"I'm fine! Why? Surprised I didn't yell at you for causing a food fight?" Lily smirked, again! She really must be sick.

"Erm - yeah. You never approved of our pranks before," I said slowly, trying to work everything out in my head. I was so confused! Why did she do this to me?

"Well, since it was a food fight, I get to brag to Aaron. He's always wanted to start a food fight at his school, but thanks to you, I have something I've done that he hasn't!" Aaron? Who's that? I guess I'll ask later, it's not that important. The only thing that's important is that she enjoyed our prank!

"You enjoyed our prank? You actually liked it! I never thought I'd see this day!" I cheered. We walked into the Great Hall and I walked over to my friends with a grin on my face. Lily had gone to sit with her friends and I watched her walk away as I sat down.

Sirius noticed all this and asked "What's got you so happy, Prongs?"

"Lily," I said. "Liked our prank yesterday." I'm still getting over the shock, so bear with me. I might not talk in complete sentences for a while. Haha, I'm crazy, I know.

"You're joking, right? Or dreaming? Anything?" Remus asked from across the table. I don't blame him. "I mean, this is Lily Evans we're talking about. The Lily Evans who has never once approved our pranks?"

"Yeah," I looked around and noticed that all the Marauders and Isabella were there. "Wait, what are you guys doing up so early?" It's a rare occurrence for them to be here before 8 o'clock. Remus is up at the crack of dawn, just like Lily, but he usually waits for Sirius and Peter to wake up.

"Soccer," Sirius muttered sending a glare in Isabella's direction.

She smiled broadly and threw a bit of toast at him. "Get over it. I needed someone to show me the way to the Great Hall, and you guys are the only ones I wanted to bring me." Haha, that's great!

"You could have waited and extra hour, but no you had to eat breakfast at 7," Poor Sirius, he had to wake up early.

"Sorry, but that's what time I ate at my old school, so I'm just used to waking up so early," She shrugged and casually threw another piece of toast at Sirius.

He blinked and stared at her. "Ouch," He said after a minute.

We all started laughing at Sirius' reaction. He can be such an idiot sometimes, it's very funny. After the laughter died down I turned to Isabella and asked "So, what was your old school like?"

"It was great. No uniforms or houses. No huge castle where you get lost every other turn. And it was right in the middle of the city," she sighed. She must miss it there. I wonder why she left. I know she told us that her dad got a job here in England, but I think she was lying. There had to be more to her story, but since she obviously didn't want to talk about it, I won't push it.

"Do you play Quidditch?" Sirius asked her. Good topic, it always starts conversations.

"Yeah, I love it. We didn't have a team at NYHS, but I followed the Quidditch teams here in England," She said. I didn't know what NYHS was but it was most likely her old school. "And I learned to play. I'm a pretty good chaser." She smiled, probably remembering good Quidditch memories.

"Good, we need another chaser for our team. You should try out," Sirius said.

For some reason Isabella looked uncomfortable. "Um - I don't think I'm going to join any teams for now. I just want to get used to the school." What? Quidditch would help her make new friends and everything, so why not?

"Oh, okay," Sirius said a little upset. Probably wanted Quidditch Tryouts to be over with really quickly. I don't blame him, he's Captain this year. I was the last two year, but since I'm Headboy McGonagall decided to choose Sirius. And tryouts are always the worst part of the season.

Just then the owls came flying in with the morning post. An owl landed in front of Isabella. She grabbed the letter and opened it. She started reading it, and I could read it over her shoulder.

Isabella,
I know you're not happy about those rules, but I put them in place for your own good. We can't have a repeat of what happened in New York. As Professor Dumbledore told you, I don't want you to get more than four detentions this year, and you have to keep up your grades. If you don't follow the rules you will be pulled out of Hogwarts and go to school with your brother. Stay out of trouble this year. I'll see you at Christmas.
Love, Dad

I was confused by the letter, but obviously Isabella understood it because she scowled and put the letter in her bag. I heard her mutter "Idiot Dad" under her breath, but no one else noticed. I wanted to ask her about the rules, and what happened in New York, but I figured she wouldn't tell me since she didn't know me that well, so I let it go.

After a few minute of silence during which everyone ate their breakfast, Professor McGonagall came by and gave us our schedules. She told us to help Isabella find her way to classes then moved to the next group of students.

"Potions first, that sucks," Isabella commented looking at her schedule. And I agree, Potions call does suck. Especially with Slughorn as our professor.

"Well should we get going?" I asked looking at my watch. It was best not to make Slughorn mad the first day of classes.

Everyone agreed and we got up and left the hall. We made our way down to the dungeons, pointing out secret passageways to Isabella. We made it into the classroom to find Slughorn giving assigned seats. Great, that's just what we need. Not.

"Lupin and Pettigrew here, Potter and Evans upfront," Slughorn said. I'm with Lily! This has to be the best potions class of my life! "Hart and Black here." Isabella and Sirius sat right behind us. Slughorn finished pairing the class and went to the front of the room. "Alright, today we won't be brewing a potion. Copy down these notes, then take out your book and read chapter ten. Begin." We got out our things and began a very boring potions class.

About half an hour into class, Isabella and Sirius started arguing behind me.

"Sirius, stop it!" Isabella hissed.

"Not doing anything," Sirius said innocently. He was lying though, you could tell. He was never good at the whole lying thing.

"You keep writing on my parchment," She said back.

"Oh that, my bad," You could almost hear him smirking. He is such an idiot sometimes...all the time.

"Yes your bad! So stop it!" Isabella said louder than before.

Slughorn heard. Not good. He walked over to them and said "Do you have something to share with the class Miss. Hart?"

"No, Professor," She said.

"Keep it down then, and continue writing the notes, not these doodles all over your paper," He walked back to his desk and sat down.

I could tell Isabella was mad. "Idiot! Look what you did!" She furiously whispered to Sirius.

"I didn't do anything! It's not my fault you were being loud!" Sirius defended himself. It was his fault, but he's to stupid to realize that.

"Yes you did! You were drawing on my paper!" She said. Slughorn noticed again.

"Miss. Hart, if you can't keep quiet during my lesson I'll have to give you a detention," He told her.

"But-" She began.

"No excuses. See me after class," He said. I thought he was being a little harsh, it was her first day after all, but that's what he does to people who aren't in his little 'Slug Club'.

A while later the bell rang and everyone packed up. Isabella walked dejectedly to the front of the class and talked to Sluggy. We waited for her at the back of the class so we could bring her to Transfiguration.

"Is he always that stupid?" She asked as we walked out of the room.

"Who, Slughorn or Padfoot?" Remus asked.

"Both," She mumbled. Sirius sent a glare in her direction.

"You have to admit that it was your fault Pads," I said sticking up for Isabella.

"I didn't know she'd get detention her first day here! I figured the teachers would give her some slack," Sirius defended himself. Okay, so I was thinking the same way. I mean, how can Slughorn do that? For all he knows, she could have been allowed to talk during class at her old school. Stupid teachers. "Well, Minnie will give you some slack, so I'll bother you during this class," Sirius smirked and opened the classroom door.

"You better not! I can't get another detention," She hissed as she sat down. Then I remembered that letter. Four detentions and she was out of Hogwarts. She could only get three more detentions the whole year. That sucks.

"Alright, I won't be the reason you get another detention this whole year," Sirius promised. I don't know if he could do that, he loves making trouble.

Isabella smiled. "That's all I ask."

Transfiguration passed pretty quickly. McGonagall just lectured us then had us review the stuff we did last year. After the bell rang we enjoyed a nice lunch, then we got a free period.

We were sitting in front of the fireplace trying to come up with something to do. This school can be really boring.

"What did you do for fun at your old school, Soccer?" Sirius asked.

Isabella shrugged. "We had computers and we watched TV sometimes. And if it was nice outside we would play a sport, usually soccer." What the hell? What's a computer, or a TV?

"Okay, I didn't understand any of that," I said. Sirius and Peter were also confused, but Mr. Smarty Lupin knew what they were.

Isabella laughed. "God, you wizards here in England are like Medieval, aren't you? A computer is something you can go on and play games or type or go on the Internet and talk to people really far away. I have my laptop upstairs, I can show you sometime. And a TV is something that you watch shows on." I still don't understand, but I pretended that I did.

"Why don't you get your labtop and show us," Peter suggested.

"It's laptop, a 'p', not a 'b'. And I'll get it now," She stood up and headed up to the girls dormitory. Sirius and I still haven't figured a way up there, but we'll get it soon enough. She came down a couple minutes later with a white flat thing. She sat down and placed it on the table. She opened the top and pressed a button and something popped up. It said 'Windows' and under that it said 'loading' with something that was moving.

"What is this, some kind of Muggle thing?" Sirius asked.

Isabella nodded. The screen changed and turned blue and in the middle it had an icon of a soccer ball and it said 'Isabella Hart'. Isabella clicked it and typed something. It began loading again. When the next screen popped up Isabella looked up at us and smiled "Okay, what do you want to do? I have PacMan, or we could just go on the Internet."

I didn't know what either of those things were. She explained it as best she could, then clicked on a little icon that had a blue 'E' and said 'Internet Explorer'. She showed us something called 'e-mail' and had us each try to play PacMan. Sirius was the best at it, behind Isabella of course.

After she put the laptop away we began walking to Defense. "That was weird," Remus commented.

"Yeah, it was," Sirius agreed. "But it was so much fun kicking all of your arses!"

"Excuse me, I think I was the one who got the most points. Your ass was kicked too," Isabella said. Haha, she's right. Sirius didn't like that though. He was pouting all the way to class.

A/N: The poll on my profile is for this story. I want to know if I should have Harry as their DADA professor. They won't ever figure out that it's James and Lily's future son, and there won't be any chapters just about him. But there will be hints as to who he is, and the Marauders and crew will be suspicious of him and maybe Ginny will join him. Please go to my profile and vote, or leave it in a review. Sorry, couldn't think of how to end this chapter. I wanted DADA but you have to vote in the poll first. I won't put a DADA class in until I get at least 10 votes! Thanks! x3 scribble.

P.S: I hope you liked this chapter. Please review :)
