Thank you again for the follows/favs! Also a big thank you to my girls Kelsey (my fellow Harry Potter nerd) and Faye (the most awesome Hufflepuff), :D

Hope you enjoy xx

September had been extraordinarily uneventful. No one had played any pranks that were worth noticing, homework was given and people went to lessons. James usually would be extremely bored with such an uneventful month, but someone had been like a shining light, adding fun into the dullest tasks. Lily Evans was now, not just the girl he fancied but, a great friend. Her infectious laugh brightened up boring Head duties, and her wicked sense of humour could reduce all the Marauders to tears. Everything about her was interesting, and the more James learned about her, the more she occupied his mind. Lily was perfect to him; she was smart, funny, always up for a laugh and completely gorgeous. He couldn't help but smile when she was around.

"Oi, Potter!" He heard her voice ring through the corridor. He turned around already smiling his famous smirk.

"Hello, Evans. What can I do for you?"

She smiled back at him. Merlin, how is it possible to look that good? Surely its not legal!

"What are you doing tonight?"

James' heart stopped. Is she asking me out?! Stay calm. Be cool.

"Nothing much, probably just homework. I know I'm such a party animal. Why?"

"I was thinking of having an unofficial Heads meeting, if you're free. So we can finalize Hogesmeades visits and stuff, I know it's not the most fun thing for a Friday night but I do have some Honeydukes chocolate I may be willing to share, if you're interested?" She winked cheekily causing James to practically die.

Lily Evans wants to spend her Friday night with me. Am I actually awake?

"Well I can't turn down the offer of food, I'll be there. 7 in the sitting room?"

"Cool see you there." And with that she strolled off to her class, leaving James doing a victory dance inside all the way to class.

"Prongs, are you even listening to me?"

"Padfoot, I think he's finally lost it. He's had that dazed look all afternoon."

Sirius whacked James with a book, causing him to awake from his daydream

"What was that for?" he yelled, throwing his Potions textbook at his best friend.

"I was asking you what you think our next prank should be, however you were staring off into space like a complete moron so therefore I hit you."

Remus laughed, "Big words there Padfoot." He dodged a well-aimed cushion from the Gryffindor Beater, "I think I know what is occupying our dear Prongs' mind. It wouldn't be a certain redhead, would it?"

James blushed slightly.

Sirius shook his head, "Mate, you need to forget about her. She is pretty cool and a good laugh but she doesn't want to date you. Move on to someone else, please. For our sanity as much as yours."

Smirking, James replied, "That's where you are wrong. We're having a meeting tonight, which she asked me about. It is basically a date."

Simultaneously Remus and Sirius groaned, they both liked Lily but they knew she only liked James as friend and if James kept carrying on fancying her, it was going to end in a complete disaster.

James arrived in the Head's dormitory bang on 7, not wanting to appear too eager. He was greeted with the sound of the record player, Lily loved it so much, and she was always playing with it.

"Evans! Are you here?" he shouted up the stairs as he went to get changed out of his robes.

"Hi! I'm just getting changed, I'll be right down."

James smiled, Lily was very stereotypical when it came to getting changed, she always took forever and would never leave the dorm without at the very least about 10 coats of mascara. He bet she would still look gorgeous with no makeup on.

He quickly changed into a pair of jeans, a t-shirt and hoodie, then went downstairs and lit the fire. He sat down in his favourite armchair, thinking about his favourite sport, Quidditch and the upcoming match against Hufflepuff.

After about 10 minutes, Lily rushed downstairs apologizing for being late. She took James breath away, she looked just stunning. She was wearing low rise, very short shorts, yet they didn't actually show any of her butt like some sluts' do, and the way her oversized grey sweatshirt slid of her shoulder was so sexy, but still so classy. She's just perfect.

Lily turned to him, with her hands on her hips and a sassy expression on her perfect face, "Take a picture, babe, it'll last longer. And it won't slap you if you continue to stare at it."

James cleared his throat to cover his embarrassment and grinned, "Sorry, Evans. You are looking good though. Much too good for our humble Head's meeting."

She blushed slightly and smiled, "Cheers. You look alright, yourself. Anyway, down to business."

The next few hours were spent discussing Hogesmeade visits, patrols and prefect meetings, all equally dull topics, yet somehow Lily was having the best Friday night she'd had in a long time. Potter just had a way to make her laugh so hard it hurts and she feel so relaxed with him, it was like she'd know him for ages. She'd realised that he wasn't the arrogant idiot he seemed to be, he was hilarious, easy to talk to and, most surprisingly, a good friend. A few weeks ago, if someone had said you will be having a great time just chatting to Potter about Head stuff, she would have died of shock. However now, she loved being around him, he was just so….fun.

"I think that's everything!" James said slamming the new patrol schedule on the table, "Or if that isn't everything, I'm going to chuck myself out of that window!"

Lily giggled, "Finally! Now, partaaaaay!"

James raised an eyebrow, "The Head Girl, a party animal? Why Professor McGonagall would die of shock."

"Ha bloody ha." She replied sarcastically, "What I was only going to get the chocolate and put on some music. Is that okay with you O great Head Boy?"

"No problems here. May I join you then, my darling Evans?"

Lily's laughter echoed up the stairs as she ran to get the large box of chocolates and music. She put the first record on and it was Maroon 5, one of Lily's favourite bands. As she went to sit, she noticed James's confusion, "Its Maroon 5, they're this muggle band and they are beyond amazing. I love them. This is their third album, Hands All Over." She explained, offing him some chocolates.

James smiled, "They seem pretty good, so what kind of music do you like?"

The two of them spent the whole night talking about their favourite music, favourite lessons, favourite chocolate (Lily was horrified to learn that James loved orange chocolate, her most hated chocolate) and loads of other random fact and stories about each other.

Lily suddenly squealed her favourite song has just begun playing, 'Come On Eileen' by Dexy's Midnight Runners, "I love this song!"

James stood up and offered Lily his hand, "Would you do the honour of dancing with me?" he asked, smirking his famous Marauders smirk.

Lily grinned, "I would love to!"

Oh my god! I'm dancing with James Potter! And it is the most fun thing I have done in ages. I have officially lost it!

They danced madly, making each other double over in laughter at each other's moves. Once the song had finished, they were both out of breath and panting like they had run a marathon.

Lily yawned, "I'm exhausted now! I think I'll go to bed before you kill me with your crazy dancing!"

James faked offence, "How very dare you! My dancing is amazing, Evans!"

Lily giggled, and as wen to go into her room she turned to him and said, "Call me Lily, not Evans."

James froze, shocked at this unexpected advance in their relationship. It had always been Evans, she used to hate him calling her by her first name. But now..

"Alright. Goodnight, Lily."

"Goodnight, James"

And that was the night Lily finally admitted that they had become friends.
