"I'm telling you, James, the Nimbus 300 is a lot better than the Silver Arrow." Lily heard a boy say. That boy Lily thought. Her voice is strangely familiar.

"No, Sirius, there's no way. Hey, look at that red head. She looks a bit like Evans from behind." Another boy said.

"And what a behind it is, hello hottie!" (*~AN: We don't know about you, but when we were 11 the boys were almost as bad as they are now, 5 years later in terms of sex, except they only dreamed about having it then, now, well actually most of them are still dreaming, lol.~*) Lily felt her ears getting hot. At that moment she hated her good hearing.

"Yes, well, Evans is quite attractive too." A quieter, more mature voice said.

"Yeah," The second voice snorted, of you like insufferable know-it-alls." That was it, Lily had had enough.

"Excuse me?!" She demanded, turning around, before fainting on the spot…

Lily woke up about 5 minutes later. What a stupid thing to do. She thought to herself. I can't believe I fainted. She sat up and looked around. What she saw made her want to faint again.

"Oh no." She moaned. Potter, Black and Lupin! Here! In Diagon Alley! And even worse, they'd seen her faint!

"Lily, sweetheart, are you alright?" Her mother asked anxiously, swooping down on her. Lily glared over her mother's shoulder, as Black pretended to swoon, and Potter caught him.

"Yes, Mum, I'm fine." She said, getting up, and swaying as the room spun. "Oh, I feel sick." She muttered, feeling her face go green. She turned her attention to the 3 boys, and, remembering their comments, felt her nausea fade, replaced by anger. "The only reason you don't like me, Potter, is because I a) am not fooled by your innocent looks, b) don't care for your stupid pranks, c) have played pranks on you guys, and d) I beat you in everything. Just get over yourself, you stupid self-conceited arrogant prat."

"You do realize that self-conceited and arrogant are practically the same thing, don't you Evans?" Remus Lupin asked.

"Yes, Lupin, I do." Lily snapped. "Although I'm surprised you do."

"Oh? And why's that?" Lupin asked in a dangerous voice.

"Because you're one of them." She spat the word out like it was foul. "And, I'm sorry, but I don't think any of you will ever amount to anything. I'm surprised that you're magical enough to get in here. See you at Hogwarts, boys, I'm sure you'll make perfect fools of yourselves there too." She swept out of the shop, but not before she heard Lupin mutter,

"And there's a Slytherin if I ever saw one." As she passed. I don't know what you meant by that, Remus Joshua Lupin. She fumed silently, But it was obviously meant as an insult, so you are gonna pay. Pasting a smile on her face, she walked with her mother to the car.

~*AN: Hee, hee, so short! Should I end it here? Hmm…

Hmm…

Ok, I won't.*~

*@* James's POV *@*

James Potter woke up bright and early on Friday morning. He couldn't wait to get to school! Today he, Remus and Sirius would make sure to play a prank on that stupid bitch, Lily Evans. They'd hated each other ever since the first day of school. He'd called her carrot-top because she'd poked her tongue out at him when he got into trouble with the teacher. In return, she'd chucked her apple and cinnamon muffin at him, earning herself a detention. It had been war between the two ever since. He put on his cargo shorts, and a white t-shirt, and headed downstairs for breakfast.

James sat in his seat, watching smugly as Lily strolled in, just on time.

"Lily Evans."

"Here" Lily replied

"Aaaaaaah so Lily Evans decided to show up to class today did she" the teacher said snidely

"Now of course I showed up Ms Shadbolt I just love school it's the highlight of my life so why wouldn't I show up?" Lily replied sarcastically.

"Detention for being rude & late go to the principles office right now Miss Evans" Ms Shadbolt yelled angrily.

"Yes ma'am!" Lily muttered as she walked out of the classroom. As she passed the desk that James, Sirius and Remus sat at, they all smirked at her. She gave them a glare and walked off to the Principals office. James snickered Again, Evans. He thought happily. You'd be expelled if it wasn't the last day of school. Those thoughts made his stomach turn over. The last day of school… He'd forgotten. His Hogwarts letter should come today.

"James Potter." Jerked him out of his reverie.

"Here, Miss." He gave their stupid teacher the trademark Potter grin, and she almost swooned. Stupid muggle. He thought. Why do they always have to be like this? All muggle and magical females… They all go gaga over that smile. *Except Lily Evans* A little voice said. *She couldn't give a damn about your smile. She sneers at you even more when you use it.* Thank god. He thought. At least some people are intelligent. I did not just think that. He told himself. I did not. Evans is not intelligent. He spent the rest of the hour arguing with himself, and finally, when the bell rang, he realized that he'd spent an hour arguing with himself. It was kind of scary, actually.

He and his friends walked over to where Evans was. He wasn't sure exactly what he was going to say to her, but he knew that at some point he was going to tell her how much he enjoyed her paying out Shadbolt.

"What do you want Potter?" Lily asked angrily.

"Oh just wanted to see what you were sulking about this time" James sneered.

"I'm sulking because the principal informed that I have to live on the same planet as you three." Lily retorted sharply.

"You couldn't be anywhere near as angry as I am about it!" James exclaimed hotly, forgetting about what he was going to say.

"God Potter wake up to yourself when are you gonna stop being such an insufferable git!"

"Ummmmmmm let me see how about when you stop being such a stuck up ho."

"I HATE you Potter! I wish that, that your bag would just incinerate!" She stomped off, and James was left with the task of trying to figure out how she'd set his bag on fire, and, more importantly, how to put it out.
