At 6 am, Lily buried her head deeper into the pillow, letting out a deep, frustrated groan. The obnoxiously loud beeping was still here, growing louder every second. "STOP!" She moaned into the pillow. She reached out to shut the alarm that just refused to stop ringing."Oh Merlin! Who put it here again?!", she whined, sitting up. Honestly, people, didn't they get that she treasured her sleep? Still tired and grumbling, she turned it off, taking out the batteries before immediately crawling back into her bed.

Trying to go back to sleep, she squeezed her eyes closed. Lily sighed. It's not working. "Stupid alarm clock.", she muttered, silently cursing whoever placed the alarm by her bed. She blew the disheveled red hair out of her face and flipped over to her back.

Lily stared at the ceiling. The letter from Dumbledore was still in her mind. A large grin spread across her face and she giggled softly.

"Congratulations, Miss Evans, for being Head Girl of your year.

I have decided that you, being kind and clever, alone deserves this prestigious position.

The badge is in the envelope, please remember to host a prefect meeting at 3:15 pm at the Perfect Compartment on the Hogwarts Express on 1st of September. hope you had an enjoyable summer, Miss Evans

Signed, Professor Dumbledore."

the letter had read. Lily couldn't believe it, mostly because of her muggle-born status. How could she be Head girl? Head Girl... She squealed again and sighed happily. Head Girl and Head Boy were the positions that Lily had looked up to as a child. Who was Head Boy anyway?

Lily scratched her head, thinking hard. Remus Lupin maybe? He was always a great prefect, always nice and helpful. Hmmm... maybe Amos Diggory? He was a respectable boy, but a little too arrogant, Lily thought, scrunching up her nose. Yeah Dumbledore wouldn't give him that position, Diggory really was very full of himself. Speaking of arrogance, someone popped into Lily's head.

James Potter.

she rolled her eyes. That annoying nut-head. He's been bothering her since forever, just thinking about his stupid cocky smirk every time he asked her out makes her want to slap him. Lily chuckled, thinking of all the times she'd hexed that boy.

Something had changed though, James Potter seemed quite strange since last year. He seemed different, less... less cocky. Less annoying. Now that Lily thought of it, the weirder it was.

The usual hexing of first years, had gone. Instead, he devoted his spare time to tutoring young students. He would help teachers give out books, and didn't even bother Lily as much, except for a few occasional teasing.

Really, the only thing about his behavior that didn't change, was that he would still pull a LOT of pranks, at least weekly. But those pranks were actually pretty funny, although Lily would die before she admits it.

Lily thought of his messy black hair and hazel eyes with just a little speck of emerald, his lightly tanned skin with a few freckles. He was very handsome, there's no denying that, but no matter, he was still an intolerable git.

James woke up at 8. Well, kind of. He had been having trouble sleeping for ages. Like every morning, he got up, ruffling his hair even more and put on a shirt before laying back onto the bed.

James stared at the photo album in his hands, his eyes glazing over with tears. He remembered every little smile and hug Wanda gave him and he just felt lonelier than ever, looking at the pictures. It's been two months since Wanda, his aunt, passed away and James has only left his room five times since. He was very close to her. Only Sirius Black and Remus knew about this but the amount of comfort they could give him was very limited. James sighed and rolled over to the other side of the bed, letting the shiny tears fall, staining his sheets.

Author's note: Yes, I know, it was very boring, but I really did work hard on it. I'm just rushing through it all haha. I have never written anything like this before, so yeah hope you understand if I have any errors. Stay tuned for some better chapters, some MUCH BETTER chapters lol.

~Lots of love,
