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 following day in Charms, James stared intently at Lily until he heard Sirius swear on his opposite side. "Hey guys, why is it that Evans is third in the top five in our year?" he asked.
"Because Moony is one step ahead of her and Arthur is one step behind." Answered Sirius, who was still having problems with his Engorment charm.
"It's because she's not too good in Transfiguration." Remus informed. He looked over at Lily as well. "Though she does seem to be able to master everything else, doesn't she?" James leaned forward in his seat and rested his elbow on the desk and his chin in his hand.
"Well it's about time I came to the rescue again, eh?" Sirius looked over his Charms book at his friend and raised an eyebrow at him.
"What are you muttering about over there, Prongs?" James just shook his head and grinned. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lily was on her way from the library, still having no luck finding a book that would help her out with transfiguration, when James came out of nowhere and grinned down at her. "Evening Lily." He piped.
"Evening Potter." She answered flatly, not looking at him as she continued down the corridor. To her annoyance, he stayed at her side. "What do you want?"
"I have an interesting proposition that I'm sure you can't refuse." He informed.
"I somehow doubt that." James moved in front of her, blocking any way of her getting around him. He grinned triumphantly. "Potter."
"Listen, I hear from a very reliable source that you aren't too good at Transfiguration." Lily took a deep breath and leaned against the wall and listened to him. "So I figure being the genius I am, I'll teach you. After all, what female wouldn't want to sit alone in a empty classroom with for a good hour or two?"
"Honestly, Potter. You're full of it." Said Lily, she took her finger and prodded in the chest. "What makes I'd want to be stuck in a room with room, ALONE for an hour?"
"Because you love me." He answered with a wicked grin. Lily let out a laugh.
"What makes you think I fall for a stuck up, know-it-all, prattish." she didn't get a chance to finish before James leaned forward and pressed his lips to hers. Lily felt her back slide down the wall, though their lips didn't part. When they finally did, James grinned at her, pushing his glasses back up his nose.
"So what do you say, Evans?" he asked, his brown eyes shinning. She looked up at him and smiled a bit, blushing.
"Just call me Lily, Potter."
"Just call me James, Lily." She blushed a bit and nodded before pushing herself off the ground.
"I'll see you tomorrow then." She said and he nodded his face still a bit red. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sirius and Remus exchanged looks as they stared at their fellow marauder. James sat with a dazed look on his face and he honestly wasn't paying much attention to the task at hand. "Prongs, are you feeling alright?" asked Sirius. Arthur, who was suppose to be helping them with their muggle studies work, but had fallen asleep some time into the studying, lifted his head and yawned. He looked at James with tired eyes.
"He looks like he's in love or something." He informed, looking at Remus and Sirius.
"No way. James, tell us we're just being daft and nothings wrong with you." Said Remus, shaking the boy's shoulders. James laughed and made Remus let him go.
"You guys are being daft. Why would I be in love?" he asked. He still had a dazed look on his face, so he really wasn't convincing anyone. Arthur shook his head.
"I told you." Sirius leaned forward and looked his long time friend in the eyes. He couldn't believe Prongs was in a daze! Of all of them to look stupid at that moment, and had to be the master min behind the marauders.
"So James, who is she?" asked Remus curiously. The three Gryffindors looked at their friend expectantly. He suddenly came back to his senses and his eyes went wide.
"What the hell are you guy talking about?" he snapped. "I'm not in love with anyone." Sirius rolled his eyes, leaning forward with a smirk on his face.
"Of course not, Prongs." He said. "But you do realize you can't keep secrets from us, right?" James stood up and ruffled Sirius's hair.
"Believe me, Padfoot. You guys'll be the first to know if I'm, in love." He informed and went up to their dorm. Remus looked at the others.
"He's in love." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Molly looked across the table at Lily. She and Sandra had joined her in the library to work on DADA, but they hadn't gotten any done since they arrived. Lily was humming to herself and doodling on her piece of parchment, which was suppose to be her homework. "What's that you're humming?" asked Molly finally.
"A muggle love song." Lily answered absently.
"How come?" asked Sandra curiously. Lily smiled and blushed a bit.
"She's in love." Answered Lily knowingly. Lily's head snapped up.
"What makes you think something crazy like that?"
"I dunno, maybe that stupid dazed look on your face." Answered Sandra, causing lily to blush.
"You're kidding?" she asked, and looked at Molly, who nodded. She groaned and buried her face into her arms, shaking her head.
"So, who is he?" asked Molly. Lily looked up at her in confusion. "You know, the guy."
"Oh...well he's no one really important I suppose."
"Oh come on Lily. I know you're lying." Said Sandra.
"Well why don't you tell us who your boyfriend is!" announced Lily. "I've never seen you with him anywhere."
"That's because he's a muggle." Answered Sandra. The girls stared at her with wide eyes.
"But you're a pureblood." Said Molly. "How'd you manage to get a muggle?"
"I have a muggleborn friend who's house I went to visit and that's where I met Chris Finnigan. He's a regular babe." She said and pulled out a locket opening it and showing the girls a picture of her and a tall sandy haired guy. "He doesn't know I'm a witch, but he thinks I'm at a boarding school and we've been dating since my fifth year." Said Sandra with a dazed look.
"I see." Said Lily and Molly turned to her.
"So, tell us who he is."
"That's right Lily, who is this charming young man?"
"You really don't want to know." Said Lily, burying her face back in her arms.
"Oh come on. You act as if it's Lucius Malfoy. or worst yet, Snape." The girls all cringed at the thought.
"Tell us Lily."
"No."
"If you don't we'll spread a horrible rumor that you're dating Severus Snape." Said Molly and Lily groaned.
"FINE!" Lily said and looked around. "It'sJamesPotter." She said quickly. They stared at her in confusion.
"James Potter? Is that what you just said!" announced molly excitedly and Lily went scarlet.
"NO WAY!" Both Molly and Sandra announced. They grinned at Lily and Molly patted her on the back.
"That's so cute! I knew you two had it for each other."
"But he's so impulsive!" said Lily in annoyance. Molly rolled her eyes.
"Get over it, Lily. You love him and you always have. That's why you two argue so much."
"I argue with Sirius more than him, so I suppose I love him too?" Molly shook her head.
"That's not the point, Lily. Fact is, you're in love, and it doesn't look like it'll be leaving anytime soon. James isn't one to give up on something he believes in.
