Disclaimer: I don't know if I remembered to post this in the first chapter, but, I DO NOT own all of the stuff that you recognize as J.K. Rowling's, k? Now with that said...
A/N: My laptop just broke, and all of my stories (including following chapters) are GONE, yes, BYE BYE. So, now I've got to rewrite all of my upcoming chapters for the stories, so, let's just say it might take awhile....
Lily loves James loves Lily? OR NOT! Chapter 2:
The rest of breakfast passed uneventfully, unless you count Lily and James arguing about the upcoming Quidditch tryouts. James was the captain, and Lily was co-captain and manager of Gryffindor's house team. James was also the team's star seeker, and Lily was the best chaser to come along in a very long time. This, of course, just made Lily and James more competitive.
"Just because you like that Rivers girl does NOT mean she automatically gets a spot on the team!" Lily exclaimed outraged. Katelyn Rivers, a fourth year Gryffindor, was trying out for the beater position, which was one of the positions actually open. Katelyn was quite popular, and also quite a ditz. Lily had always wondered why Katelyn had been placed in Gryffindor. But, James always went after the blonde ditzy type, so it was no wonder he had a thing for Katelyn. "And anyway, even if you do go out with Katelyn, you'll break up with her after about two weeks anyway!"
"I can choose whoever I wish to," James replied, now very angry. "I, yes, I am the captain. You're just the co-captain."
"Since I am the co-captain AND manager, I get a LARGE say in who makes the team," Lily argued. "If I say no, then that person can NOT make the team."
Thankfully, at that moment, the prefects were called up to the head table. James and Lily, being they were both prefects, reluctantly trudged up to the table, sending glares at each other the whole trip. Professor McGonagall handed out the Gryffindor time tables to Lily, James, Amber Grodel- Lily's friend, Lars Goldilgh- a sixth year, and the head girl Carliana Windsor. Lily and James quickly handed out the portion of the time tables, along with their own. As they sat back down, they saw Remus hitting his head against the table, Darcy looking grim, and Sirius grinning like a maniac.
"I'm guessing we have double potions with the Slytherins first?" Lily questioned already looking unhappy.
"Yes!!!" Sirius screamed out with delight.
"Sirius, that is NOT a good thing," James explained sarcastically.
"Oh, but my boy, it is!" Sirius replied grinning like a maniac. "We'll be able to pull loads more pranks," he whispered quietly with glee to the group.
"Sirius!" the Marauders all yelled as they each smacked him playfully. After the six finished their breakfast they hurried out of the Great Hall to have some time to goof around in the common room. Lily, James, Sirius, Darcy, and Amber all played a rousing game of exploding snap. While those guys were playing exploding snap, Remus had challenged Elizabeth to a game of wizard chess. (In which he was beating her spectacularly)
The Marauders were becoming closer to Amber Grodel and Elizabeth Smithens, Lily and Darcy's dormmates. Amber and Elizabeth were the most popular girls in school besides Lily and Darcy. Amber had curly black hair, amethyst eyes, and a fair complexion. She was quite beautiful, and very charming and witty. Elizabeth had honey brown straight hair that fell just past her shoulders, brown eyes the color of stained wood, and quite tan skin with a few freckles. Elizabeth was quite clever, beautiful, and humorous, and was just as popular with the male population of Hogwarts as Amber. Even though Amber and Elizabeth didn't love pranks as much as they boys, they were still definitely Marauder material. Just like the Marauders, their personalities shone, and they were both mischief makers also.
"Ah ha!" Amber exclaimed triumphantly as the cards exploded into Lily, James, and Sirius's faces. "I win!!!"
"Awww, you got lucky," James replied, giving Amber that famous lopsided grin of his. James was becoming quite fond of Amber, as a friend, if not more.
"Yep, uh-huh, sure," Amber replied happily.
"Check MATE!" Remus cried out triumphantly. He had just won his and Elizabeth's chess game.
"Okay, now YOU got lucky!" Elizabeth replied.
"Ummm, guys, it looks like it's time for potions," Peter piped up from the corner, where he had been observing the exploding snap game.
"Well," Lily replied happily while jumping up from her cozy chair quickly. "What are we waiting for?!?" She then dashed out the portrait hole dragging poor Peter along with her.
"Lils, I've never seen you this enthusiastic about Potions before," Sirius said jokingly as he and James caught up with Lily, who was now at a walking pace.
"It's most likely because Lily can't wait to try out her new plan," Darcy said as she ran up to Sirius, Lily, and Peter.
"And what plan would that be?" James questioned as him and Amber caught up.
"I guess you'll just have to find out during Potions, won't you?" Elizabeth teased him as her and Remus had finally caught up with the group.
"You mean you three are in on this too?" James demanded as he pointed to Elizabeth, Amber, and Darcy.
"Awww, come on girlies, tell us what your plan is," Sirius pouted as Remus started to chuckle.
"What?" Sirius and James demanded at the same time.
"You mean YOU'RE in on this too?" James demanded at Remus.
"Seriously guys, this one is ingenious," Remus said while clutching his side, trying to hold in the laughter that was threatening to escape. And at that moment the Marauders plus Amber and Elizabeth arrived at the Potions dungeon.
"Well, here goes nothing," Darcy said quietly while walking in. But, instead of seeing Professor Valeek, the same potions professor from the four years the Marauders had been here, they saw a beautiful young woman in her nid thirties.
"Now, class, if you can please take your seats I will introduce myself," the young woman announced with a magical voice as the bell rang for class to start. "Now, my name is Martilia William, and I am the new Potions Master here at Hogwarts. If you are wondering what happened to Professor Valeek, he transferred to Rockhurst after being offered the Defense Against the Dark Arts position there. And, for those of you who don't know where Rockhurst is, it is a wizarding academy in Massachusetts. Now, you may all call me Professor William. And now, instead of making an invisibility potion as scheduled, I believe we will just have a fun day. Now, we will go around the room and introduce ourselves. Just say your name, your house, and three things about yourself."
"Oh no, our pranks is totally ruined now," Lily said glumily.
"And what was your prank in the first place?" James and Sirius demanded at the same time.
"We were going to put some "extra" ingredients in the Slytherins' potions so they would all turn into the animal that looked most like themself," Darcy explained.
"And I really was looking forward to seeing Malfoy as a ferret," Amber said with a grin on her face from just picturing it.
The rest of the lesson everyone took turns introducing themselves. Lily, Sirius, Remus, James, and Darcy all said the same thing. Their name, Gryffindor, and that all that mattered was that they were a Marauder forever. And then, they each said something witty about the Slytherins which received hidden laughing from Professor William.
When the bell rang signalling for the end of class the Marauders and Amber and Elizabeth jumped up quickly out of their chairs and raced for the door.
"Bye Professor William!" the girls all shrieked happily.
"Yeah," Sirius yelled. "You have achieved the first good potions lesson in the history of the Marauders being here!" And with that, he ran out quickly, receiving murderous glares from the Slytherins.
"So, Jamsie, isn't tonight the big night?" Remus asked James.
"And what big night would this be?" Darcy asked suspiciously.
"Quidditch tryouts, DUH!" Sirius yelled out happily. "So, Darcy, you trying out this year?"
"Mmmmm, I'm not sure," Darcy replied nervously. "I mean, I didn't make it in my second year, why would I make it this year?"
"You will, trust me," Lily encouraged her friend. At that moment, there came a loud beeping noise, along with the obnoxious words "It's time for lunch, it's time for lunch," in a sing-song voice coming from Sirius' new watch.
"LUNCH!!!!!!!!" Sirius screamed out as he made a dash for the portrait hole and ran to the Great Hall.
"He'll end up in Azkaban someday, I'm sure of it," Lily said jokingly as the other turned to follow him.
