Enjoy this chapter!!
Chapter 4: Prefect Meetings
"Order. order!!" The head boy, a Hufflepuff named Amos Diggory called out, sighing. "Hello. yo!! Ordeer!" He screamed. But the Prefects kept on chattering.
"WHY did they make me Head Boy." Amos muttered.
"Calm down, Amos. You need to get their attention." The head girl, a Ravenclaw named Matilda Connery said.
"THAT'S what I've been trying to do." Amos said. "OKAY. PEOPLE. ORDER.!!"
But, of course, no one listened to him. The prefects kept on chattering away, oblivious to the now hopeless Head Boy.
"When is McGonagall coming?" Amos asked Matilda.
"Soon." Matilda smirked.
"She better hurry." Amos said wearily.
Brian Evans and Olivia Haddaway where having a rather heated conversation about something, the Ravenclaws and Slytherins were talking in groups, and Lily Evans was arguing, once again, with no other than James Potter, who was seated right in front of her.
"NO, Potter, can't you get it through your thick head that it DOESN'T work like that!"
"Evans, you and I both know that I know everything. So, of course I'm right."
"Right? You, right?" Lily scoffed. "You're always wrong! I'm always right!"
"You've got it the other way Evans, I'M always right, and you're always wrong!"
"No, I'M always right."
"You're really stubborn, you know that Evans?" James said.
And, wands out, they began to throw silly hexes on each other.
"EVANS! POTTER!!" Amos yelled. "10 POINTS FROM GRYFFINDOR, PLEASE STOP THIS- "
"Potter, Evans, stop it, please." McGonagall said lazily, sighing as she came into the meeting room. "Diggory, you should've stopped them."
"But Professor they wouldn't listen to me!" Amos whined.
"Yes, whatever you say. Why isn't this meeting in order yet?!" McGonagall barked.
"Professor, none of them were listening to me, they were all talking and-"
"Fine, call this meeting to order.Potter! Evans! Give me your wands right now!"
"Huh? What did I do?" Brian asked.
"Not you, your sister." McGonagall said. "Brian, please get me their wands."
Brian shrugged and snatched both James and Lily's wands from them, who were pouting slightly, and handed them to McGonagall.
"I'll keep this until the end of the meeting." Prof. McGonagall said curtly. With a wave of her wand, James and Lily (who had colorful hair, warts, extra noses, and different colored eyes) turned back to normal.
"Behave." McGonagall said. James and Lily both had angelic faces on. "Now, first item on the agenda."
Prefect Meetings were boring, as so thought Lily. She would've fallen asleep if some Hufflepuff girl who was sitting next to her wasn't whispering too loudly about some guy she liked to her fellow prefect friend.
McGonagall was blabbing about school rules, school spirit. yada yada yada. Bleh. Lily yawned, her head propped on her hand, trying to listen to whatever McGonagall was talking about.
Her eyelids. it was getting heavier. oh. she's about to fall asleep. maybe she should just close her eyes for a second. only for a second.
*Thud* It startled Lily. She snapped out of her sleepiness, looking up, glaring at whoever dared to KICK her foot.
It was no other than James Potter, of course, who was grinning toothily at her. Annoyed, Lily sat up straight and kicked him back.
Satisfied, as James shot deadly daggers at her, Lily turned her attention back to McGonagall.
*Thud* 'How dare he kicked me again!!' Lily thought angrily. James was smiling so angelically at her, which made Lily's blood boil. 'Oh, he's going to get it.'
*Kick* *kick back* *glare* *kick again* *narrows eyes* *kick* *growled* *kick*
Olivia giggled. And Lily didn't believe what Olivia had said before. Olivia thought that maybe Lily also liked James. Hm, so cute. Look at them 'flirting' like that. It was rather childish but so cute...
"Evans, Potter, if you're done playing footsie with each other, please turn your attention back to ME?" McGonagall called out.
Startled, both Lily and James looked up from their "footsie war" to the annoyed McGonagall.
Giggles and snickers could be heard from the other prefects. Olivia was giggling madly, while Brian was rolling his eyes. Lucius Malfoy, a slytherin prefect, on the other hand, was smiling- in a very disturbing way.
"Good. Stay that way until the end of this meeting. Now, the idea of this."
Lily thought she would never be able to come out alive from her first Prefect meeting.
Fortunately she did, all she had to do was glue her eyes to McGonagall, and ignore Potter.
When McGonagall let them out, Lily let out a loud sigh. Finally, she can now go up to the common room, and curl up with a book.
"Hey there Mudblood, had fun with your boyfriend?" Someone smirked.
It was Lucius Malfoy, who was smirking, arching his eyebrows at Lily.
That made Lily almost throw up that instant, on Lucius's shoes. But instead, Lily just gave him a dark look and strolled away.
The nerve of him to call Lily a mudblood. DOESN'T he have anything better to do rather than torture those with muggle heritage? Well, Slytherins are certainly like that. And what was that he was saying, remarking about her boyfriend? Was he implying that she and James.James POTTER. were. a couple?
Lily shuddered in disgust and quickly walked back to her common room.
Lucius, on the other hand, was looking for more preys.
"Potter." He said silkily, as he noticed James walking out of the room. "I didn't know you could stoop that low to be with a mudblood."
Unlike Lily, James felt his blood boil. "What did you say?"
"You know, you and your new redheaded mudblood girlfriend." Lucius smirked.
"Malfoy, don't you EVER call Evans that." James snarled. "EVER."
"So you're not denying it, hm?" Malfoy continued. "So you have it in for that mudblood?"
"I'm warning you, Malfoy."
"Sure, she's a pretty thing." Malfoy said. "But she's a Mudblood, Potter. And you- you're from one of the oldest wizard families."
"I can't believe I'm wasting time with you, Malfoy." James chided. "I have better things to do. Good bye." With that James left Malfoy with a disgusting sneer and smile of satisfaction.
"Send me an invitation to your wedding." Malfoy called out at him.
"Nice cloak Potter." Sirius grinned as he met up with James and Remus outside on the Hogwarts grounds, near Hagrid's hut.
"What about it?" James asked. "People have been looking at me weirdly today. I dont see anything wrong with it..."
"Yeah, it's completely normal and most likely something you would wear. It's black, thick, and it's got 'LILY EVANS ROCKS' written across the back." Remus smirked.
"Yeah exactly... WHAT?!!??!?!" James yelled. "I'M GONNA GET HER BACK!!"
"Sure, you will..." Peter muttered.
Lily folded her parchment and passed a note to Maria. Maria was staring at Sirius, who was. well, he was drooling. Lily grimaced.
'Could this class be any slower?' Lily thought sarcastically. 5 more minutes till the bell rings. 4 min 56 sec. 4.52. 4.48. 4.45.
"I've decided to give you all class projects." Professor Binns said. Everybody seemed to wake up in surprise. Prof. Binns barely gave out homework.
"Nothing big, I'll divide you all in groups of 2, and just do a research on whatever topic I give you." Professor Binns continued. "Green.Pulmer." "Black. White." Lily noticed the excitement on Maria's face. "Lupin. Kilmer." "Johnson. Wakefield." Lily saw Alison's face fell, she probably wanted to do the project with Remus. "Pettigrew. Cone." "Potter. Evans."
"WHAT?" Both Lily and James cried out at the same time.
"Franklin. Leombard." "Portman. Foreman." Prof. Binns continued to drawl.
"EXCUSE ME, Professor!" Lily called.
"Mitchelin. Natt." Really, is this Professor deaf?
"PROFESSOR!" James called out loudly.
"Queen. Thompson."
"PROFESSOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lily and James yelled.
"Uh, yes?" Professor Binns asked, looking up from his parchment.
"I can't work with her/I can't work with him." They said at the same time.
"I'm sorry?"
"I can't work with him!!" Lily said loudly. James nodded. "I can't work with HER."
"Why not?" Professor Binns asked.
"Just because." Lily huffed.
"I'm sorry, children, but I've already copied it down to the records for your grades. it's only for a few weeks."
"BUT-"
"Young. Richardson."
Lily and James both slumped in their seats.
"Better get this over with." Lily said, as she opened a gigantic encyclopedia. "Nicholas Flamel."
"You wont find him in an encyclopedia, Evans." James said.
"Then I suppose you've got a better idea?" Lily asked curtly.
"This book. Here, page 225." James said, holding the book "Famous Wizards"
Lily reluctantly took the book and opened it to page 225. She rolled her eyes as she found the black headline "Nicholas Flamel".
"Alright, I'll copy this down." Lily said, feeling her cheeks burn with embarrassment.
"For once, I'M right?" James said, teasing her.
"I was just foolish enough to look in the encyclopedia, Potter. Doesn't mean you're right."
"But. if I hadn't brought the book, you would never find-"
"Okay, okay. You're right this time. Satisfied, Potter?" Lily said exasperatingly.
"Not quite." James answered, a grin playing on his lips.
Lily chose to ignore him, while she copied the 2-paged autobiography of Nicholas Flamel.
"You're taking way too much time like that." James said, snatching the book.
"HEY!" Lily cried. ("SHH!!" Madame Pince, the Librarian shot deadly glares at them.) "Give that back! I was copying-"
"Copius!" James said lazily, tapping his wand over the book.
"Paste." James said, tapping his wand over the roll of parchment Lily was writing on. (A/N: HEHE! COPY PASTE!)
Instantly, the parchment was full with words- the exact same words as the ones in the book-James had used some duplicate copying spell.
"And you call yourself the Charms master." James smirked.
Lily's eyes widen at the parchment. "We can't do that," Lily said, after finally finding her voice. "That's cheating!"
"Evans," James said, sighing. "That is NOT cheating. We were just saving our time. If you copied the whole thing, it would take you hours, days, weeks maybe. This only took a few seconds."
Lily's eyes narrowed, the thought of James Potter out-smarting her again was just too much.
"Now," James continued. "We can use our free time to do other things."
"Like what?" Lily asked bluntly.
"Come on." James said, standing up, while putting Lily's quill and leftover parchments back into her book bag.
"But-" Lily started.
"Let's go." James said, slinging Lily's book bag over his right shoulder, and pulling Lily's arm. Lily was a bit shocked but she eventually followed James out of the Library.
"Where are you taking me?" Lily asked.
"Outside." James answered.
"But it's dark outside. And cold." Lily whined.
"Come on, Evans, relax." James said, pulling her towards a small door. He opened the door and pulled something out-a broom.
"What are you doing with that broom?" Lily asked.
"You'll see." Was all James answered.
He took her out to the Quidditch Pitch.
