School Days
Author's Note: This fic was done because I was just reading a story about back when James Potter and the others were young, so I decided to try it out for fun. Also for the fun of things I've James as the Quiddtich team Seeker. I know he wasn't, but what the heck! Arthur and Sirius are also on the team. This is a fanFIC after all, and its all for fun! So please no flames. And as for ages, I don't know how much older or younger everyone is so please bear with me.

The next day, the entire school was talking about yesterday's Quidditch match. James entered the Great hall and got pats on the back from most of the guys and compliments on the catch he had made. He just grinned and thanked them. When he got to the Gryffindor table, he was surprised to see that Lily wasn't there. Molly looked up at him. "You going to sit down, James?" she asked.
"Yeah, but where's Evans at?" he asked. Molly looked at him and smiled a bit.
"She's sitting at the Ravenclaw table of course." She answered and then grinned up at him. "But being Head Boy, you could invite her over here to sit with us. It would look as though you were just talking about school work." She informed brightly. James looked over at the Ravenclaw table where Lily sat listening to her friends.
"She doesn't seem to be having much fun with them, does she?" He said, a bit unsure if he should go invite her over.
"That's right Prongs!" Sirius piped. "Get over there and save her from that boring girly conversation like the stud of a prince you are!" he said and began laughing. Remus grinned.
"Ignore him, Prongs. You know Sirius's brain doesn't function like everyone else's." he informed. "Just go invite her over. It would look as if you two were just talking about school since you're Head boy and Girl."
"Yeah, I guess you're right. And we do have to plan the ball with each other tonight after all."
"What ball?" asked Molly.
"That's what we have to figure out." Laughed James. Then he made up his mind. "Right. Here I go." He said and walked off; ignoring the comment Sirius had just made. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lily let out a sigh and stirred at her oatmeal as she listened to May, Michelle, and a few other girls talking about the Quidditch match from the other day. They were all there so what was the purpose of talking about it. It actually made her wish she had sat at the Gryffindor table the morning. "Special message for Miss Lily Evans." Lily jumped and turned her head. James grinned at her. "Morning there, flower."
"It's Lily. Now what do you want?" she asked. He just shrugged a shoulder.
"Molly just asked me to come invite you to come and join her in the company of a few handsome, strong men, one of them being me."
"Since when are you a man Potter?" asked Lily, standing up and grabbing her things. She paid no attention to the fact her friends were staring in shock.
"Touché, Evans." He said, his brown eyes shinning. She rolled her eyes as she walked along side him to the Gryffindor table.
"Lily! I'm glad you could make it." said Molly and flashed a wide grin, then winked. She made room for her. Lily sat down and greeted the others. James sat across from her and Molly immediately turned to her. "So, what's this I hear about there being a ball?" she asked.
"Oh that. The Head Boy and Girl have to plan out when the first ball is going to be. as part of our duties." She explained. James grinned.
"You can't wait, can you?" Lily frowned at him.
"Get over yourself, Potter. I'm still upset about the fact you had the nerve to do what you did in front of the whole student body." She informed. James looked at her with a mock hurt expression.
"What's the matter, daisy? You don't like it when I show you signs of affection?" he asked.
"The name is Lily, dumb ass, get it right. And as for the affection part, no." James scowled a bit and ignored the fact that Sirius was holding back laughter at his side. Arthur on the other hand was doubled over, laughing silently at Molly's side. When he looked up, his face was red and there were tears in his eyes.
"Sorry, James. It was just the way she called you a dumb ass." He choked. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lily was on her way to the library when she noticed something out the corner of her eye. She turned around and looked down the corridor she had just passed by where she spotted Sirius and Cassie. She had to admit, what ever was going on right now was pretty interesting looking at the moment. Cassie had her arms crossed as she looked up at Sirius, her back leaning against the wall. Lily was beginning to wish she could hear what they were saying. She heard Cassie let out a sigh and she pushed herself off the wall, patting Sirius on the cheek.
"Maybe some other time, Black." She said and walked off. Lily smirked and when Cassie was gone, she cleared her throat. Sirius just turned around and raised an eyebrow at her.
"What do you want?" he asked. "Don't you and Prongs have a date in the library?"
"It's not a date. I'm being forced by Dumbledore to go." She snapped. Sirius grinned, obviously throwing aside his previous conversation just to mess with her.
"You know, I think my dear Prongs has been blinded by you." He informed. Lily raised an eyebrow at him.
"What does that mean?" she asked.
"Well at the match, all those babes you were sitting around, and he picked you out over them all." Sirius informed. Lily glared at him.
"Why do you bother to annoy me, Black?" she asked.
"Because you so damn sexy when your mad." Sirius informed and walked pat her, shouting a good bye over his shoulder as he left. Lily rolled her eyes and continued on her way to the library. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"We're going to have a ball that DOES NOT involve explosives and pranks." Said Lily, glaring across the table at James. He frowned at her. It wasn't as if he had voiced it, but a ball that involved that much would be worth going to. He blushed a bit.
"I wasn't thinking that. it's just that one like that would be more fun." He informed. She rolled her eyes.
"And I suppose next you expect me to agree to just let you, Remus and Sirius finish planning out the rest?" she asked.
"That'll work." Said James. She narrowed her eye at him.
"We're having a Christmas Ball, no questions asked. That way afterwards we can rest over the holidays." Lily informed. She looked up from her parchment and looked up at James. "Do you have any disagreements?" James suddenly jumped at her sudden question. He had just noticed he had been staring at her the entire time nonstop. He quickly shook his head.
"Nope, you just go on a do what you do best." She shook her head and shoved the parchment towards him.
"Why don't you do the party supply list." She said. "I have to find a book." James watched her walk off before turning to the parchment and beginning to list things.
"I never thought I'd see the day." James looked up and Remus was grinning at him.
"What the hell are you on about?" he asked grumpily. Remus sat down in Lily's empty seat and shrugged a shoulder.
"Just thought I'd never see the day James Potter would be in the library ACTUALLY doing work." He answered. "Where's Evans at?"
"She had to find a book. What are you doing here? Where's Sirius at?"
"I'm in a detention, believe it or not. Sirius has a detention with McGonagall." Answered Remus.
"You have a detention in the library?" James asked, raising an eyebrow at him.
"Like I said, believe it or not. I know you won't believe the story to back it up." Said Remus. "But Pince has me re-shelving books for two hours. He leaned forward and looked at the list James was working on. "You forgot dungbombs."
"Evans says no dungbombs." Said James.
"What's a party without dungbombs!" announced Remus, completely outraged, then he leaned forward. "Don't worry, I'm sure Sirius will bring along his secret stash."
"Good looking out, mate." Laughed James. Remus grinned and stood up.
"Well I had better get going before the old buzzard notices I'm not serving my sentencing." He said, nodding in Madam Pince's direction. James laughed.
"Se you." He called. Lily came back not too long after Remus left and sat down with a sigh. "What's the matter? Didn't find the book?" she shot him a look and chose to ignore his question.
"It's nothing. Did you finish the list?" James nodded and handed it to her. "Well I suppose this should be good enough until next week. I'll just bring this to Dumbledore." She said. James watched her get up and leave before chasing after her.
"So you're not going to say 'good night James, see you tomorrow in Charm'?" she asked.
"Obviously not." She answered.
