Lily was dreaming.
There was a boy. He was at Hogwarts…or at least that's what it looked like. He was running….running as fast as he could go. There was an evil laugh in the background. The boy pulled out his wand and was about to kill off the evil thing when-
She woke up with a start. This dream had been coming to her for three nights.
"Gosh…who is this person?" Lily asked herself. She pulled the comforter off the bed and walked down to the common room. The room had an eerie glow to it, as the ever-burning fire flickered along the walls. She curled up in an armchair and stared into the fire for a few minutes, trying to organize her thoughts. The dream had first started off with a happy little family-mother, father, baby. It sped ahead to where the boy was living at a Muggle house with relatives who disliked him very much. Then it showed him at Hogwarts, with two other people.
Lily was ultimately puzzled by the mysterious little boy and his friends. The boy looked so much like-
"James!" She exclaimed as he pulled his hands off of her eyes and kissed her softly.
"Hello. I saw you down here and I figured I'd come and say hi." His hair was messier than normal, if possible, and his glasses were crooked, making him look like a slightly confused little boy.
"Hi, yourself. Why are you up at this hour?"
"That's what I was going to ask you."
She smiled. "Well, I asked first, so answer me."
"Well, there were these giant aliens in the room and they were about to kil-''
"The truth, Potter." She tapped her foot and hid a grin.
" Alright, fine. I couldn't sleep so I decided to come down here. Then I saw you staring into the fire like you were a million miles away. So there I was on the stairs and I said to myself 'I should say hi.' And here I am." He smiled innocently. "Now, do tell, why are you here?"
"Just because."
"I know! You were down here because the aliens were about to kill e- !"
"Do shut up, James. You know and I know that there were no aliens in any of the rooms."
He looked sad. "Well, I just wanted to make you laugh…"
"That was an awful lousy was try, then."
"Fine! I'll just go upstairs and stay there!!" James ran up the staircase and slammed the door.
"Boys.'' Lil muttered to herself as she climbed up the stairs to the 7th year girls dorms.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
The next morning was a Saturday, and not many people were up around 7:30. Except, of course, the gang of 7th year Gryffindors and a few choice Slytherins. Including Sevvie-Poo Snapey-Boy, as the giggly Whitney Bimbbleton called him.
And poor (not) Severus Snape didn't notice that his robes were gone. Or that his undies had suns on them that were grinning (a/n: think teletubbies), giggling, and generally making him look like a fool.
"My, my, my. Looks like the sun has risen bright and early today. Wait! That doesn't appear to be the sun at all! SEVVIE SNAPE'S UNDERPANTS ARE SHINING!!!!!" James called, while clutching at his sides. Sirius was off his chair, beating the floor with his fists and crying. Lily was grinning a wide grin, Remus was snorting into his oatmeal, and Peter just looked confused.
Severus was looking at the Gryffindor table like they were mental institution escapees. Even some of the Slytherins were laughing.
Dumbledore walked in, whistling. He stopped short at the sight of Snape in sunny pants, and the rest of the Great Hall erupting in insane laughter.
"Um, students, please calm down!! We need to keep the noise level at a dull roar, if you don't mind…oh bother, this is no use. My my my, what are we going to do?" Dumbledore was quite scattered by this time.
McGonnagal stood up, pointed her wand at her throat and said 'snorus' "EVERYONE SIT DOWN THIS INSTANT!!!" The hall became orderly. After quickly talking off the spell, she beckoned Snape over to her. He listened, looked down, and turned the color of a very well ripened tomato. And then bolted out of the room as fast as his short little legs could take him.
"I want the person or persons responsible for this little stunt to report to my office, now!!!" She was pissed and it was obvious.
Lily moved around in her seat. "Soo, are you gonna admit it or are you going to wait for her to come and hunt you down?"
"Wait for her to hunt us down, of course." James said this with pride.
She sighed went back to calmly eating her eggs.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
Of course, McGonnagal did find out that they had been the little pranksters and sentenced James and Sirius to 1 week of cleaning, helping teachers, and anything else there was to be done during the detention time.
"Say…Lily…?" James walked up to her and tried to sound as normal as possible.
"Say…James? That's my foot you're stepping on. "
"Sorry, Lily. Anyway…Lily?"
"What, JAMES??" Lily began to sound exasperated.
He cowered. "Sorry…never mind! I haveta go to my detention now. Bye!!" James ran off, seriously scattered. His girlfriend was obviously pissed and Sirius was hiding from 'The-Evil-Detention- Monster-Who-Was-After-Him-And-His-Halloween-Costume'.
"Eeee! Eeee! James! IT'S COMING!!! HIDE MEEEEEEEE!!" Sirius ran through the common room, being chased by what looked like a girl. James snorted. Sirius Black was SCARED of a girl. Who would've thought?
Lily snorted. "Um…I was going back to get my Arithimancy book?"
James grinned a wide, happy grin. "So you take my apology for stepping on your foot?"
"Errr….I'l think about it, ok?"
"Whatever you say, your highness." He kissed her hand, made a sweeping bow, and exited the room.
"Guys are weird."
"HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELPPP! OOOOOHH NOOOOOOO! THERE'S TWOOOO!" You can guess who sprinted through the room, screaming at the top of his lungs.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
The week following detention was a peaceful routine.
BOOM!
"Heeheehee!!!"
"Sirius Black!!!! GROW MY HAIR BACK NOW!!!!"
"I'm sorry, I haven't learned the counter-spell yet. Would you like to try some Rogaine?" Sirius asked innocently.
The scene looked like this: A very mad, very bald James Potter screaming at a very purple Sirius Black, who was holding out a small, brown bottle. In the background, a Lily Evans sat calmly at a desk doing her Muggle Studies homework and hiding a very large grin.
"Um…guys? Can we move to the Bald Boy's dorm with this? I'm trying to think and it's um…not possible. So could you…?" They ran up the staircase. "Thank the Lord." She sighed and went back to copying a paragraph on the microwave.
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
"Insane…squirrels…they're coming to get me….help. I need help." James mumbled to himself in his sleep.
"HAH! James! I'm an insane squirrel!!!! Watch out!" Lily stood over her boyfriend grinning and shaking a finger in his face. "You need to stop stealing that perfume. The smells gonna drive you crazy.''
"Huh?"
"Oh c'mon. Your squirrel friends could sound more intelligent than that. It's time for your detention and since you obviously won't listen to Padfoot, I decided to wake you up." She zapped him with an itching spell and he was up in a jiffy.
"L…ily! P-please!! I'm u-u-up!!!" James rolled around on the floor like a dog with an itch on it's back.
"Fine. Get up, you lazy doof."
"Ok…what time is it? I can't seem to find my glasses." He reached around on the table beside his bed, knocking over a glass of water and a bag of Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.
"Sweetie….your glasses are on your face. You wouldn't know your nose if it was in the middle of your face. Which it is." She grinned at him. "Up now!!!"
He grumbled and slid out of bed, pulling Lily into a hug.
"Um….what do you want now? It's quite unusual to have you hugging me."
He made a sad face, "Liwwwy!!!! You hurted my feelings! I not feel loved now."
"Excuse me? Liwwwy?" She groaned. "You have the habit of picking the stupidest, most babyish names possible. Now, if you don't leave soon, McGonnagal's gonna drop-kick you down the hall."
¤¤¤¤¤¤¤
"SNAAAAAAAAAPE! I'M GONNA RIP OFF YOUR ARM AND BEAT YOU WITH IT IF YOU DON'T STOP LAUGHING!!!!!! GET TO WORK, NOW!!!"
"Potter? What are you talking about? I'll slap you bal' headed if you don't pipe down, pipsqueak."
"My, is it Bash the Students Day? Cuz my armor's in the common room….mommy. Help me. I feel scared." Sirius buried his head in his arms and pretended to weep.
"Insufferable gits." Lily muttered to herself, earning a vicious look form the professor.
"Evans. Are you talking???"
"NO ma'am, of course not." She smiled, giving Minerva a look, that clearly meant it would surely look bad to punish your head girl.
RRRIIINNNGGG!!!
"Hallelujah!!!" All three yelled simultaneously making a mad dash for the door.
"HOMEWORK!!! PAGE 534 ON THE TRANSFORMATION OF A CHAIR TO THE RARE ATALIN PLANT!!!!" She yelled at them before anyone got out the door.
They all groaned and went out the door, talking about how much homework they had among other things.
