James Sirius Potter couldn't be more like his namesake. He had messy hair, wore glasses, was one of the biggest pranksters Hogwarts has seen and, on top of that, he had fallen for a redheaded who hated him.

The difference between both of them was simple. Lily Evans did fell in love with James Potter I, but there was no way Alice Longbottom will fall for James Potter II.

To put it in Alice's words: she'd rather face Voldemort alone than go out with that jerk Mr. My-father-saved-the-world Potter.

Or so he thought.


"But Alice, please, just one date" James Sirius begged Alice Longbottom, again.

"For the thousandth time in the day, NO!" said Alice, screaming the last part.

"Just one date and I won't bother you again, if you want I'll even transfer to Durmstrang" begged James.

"Just one and I won't have to see your face again?" asked Alice, finally having a way to get him out of her life.

"Yes, but," said Potter smiling devilishly, "if you enjoy the date I'll get the privilege of kissing you."

"Ugh, fine, whatever, I'll probably kill you before the end of our date." said Alice. She left trying to ignore the butterflies in her stomach when she thought of kissing James.

"YES!" screamed James doing his victory dance once Alice was out of his sight.

"Are my eyes and ears fooling me?" asked Fred to his cousin, "did Alice just agreed to go on a date with you?"

"It took her seven years but she finally said yes!" answered James, still dancing.


After their first date, James swore Alice was the best kisser in the world, although she would never admit she enjoyed their kiss.


Author's Note: hey, guys! new chapter here! PLEASE REVIEW!

isaacswolfsbane: of course you can use my idea of Peeves befriending them! And about Scorp's and Al's Houses I actually see Al in every House and for Scorp and Rose I see them in Ravenclaw, Gryffindor and Slytherin (I loveSlytherin!Rose).
