A/N: Thanks to everyone who reviewed. I'm sorry about all the grammer and
spelling mistakes (Microsoft Word you have failed me). That is definitely
not my strong point. But never fear, my mom/editor is on the scene. Bad
grammer/spelling you don't have a chance. Thanks again and on with the
story.
Chapter Five: Lily in Love.
"So how was last night's patrol?' Mayda asked Lily as they walked into their charms class.
"Eventful to say the least. We found a group of mini Death Eaters having a meeting in a empty class room."
"No way! What Death Eater would be stupid enough to have a meeting right under Dumbledore's nose?"
'They weren't normal Death Eaters. They were kids, two Seventh years, five sixth years, a third year, and two second years. There were two Ravenclaws and the rest were Slytherins.'
'Ravenclaws got into that? What were they thinking?'
'I don't know, things are certainly getting bad out there. Selma Cook got a note yesterday saying her uncle died during one of the attacks.'
'Wasn't he a muggle?'
'Yeah, but that seems to be who they are targeting the most.'
'That's really sad.'
'Yeah.'
As Lily said this Professor Flitwick walked into his Advanced Charms class.
'Welcome class.' He said in his squeaky voice. 'Today we're going to try a charm that lets you see what is going on in other places. For example, if I placed the charm on Peter Pettigrew, I would see him eating the rest of his lunch under his desk in the back. But, I do have two eyes so I don't need the charm. Mr. Pettigrew would you please put away your food and join the class.'
'Sure Professor.' Peter said around the last of his corn beef sandwich.
'Thank you Mr. Pettigrew. Now I have placed my charms books around the school. Each of you will pick a book title out of my hat and use the charm to see where it is.'
*******
'Hey Lily.' Lily turned around and saw a cute Ravenclaw trying to speak to her.
'What is it Brian?'
'Would you..um like to go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend?'
Lily was a little shocked at first, but then she smiled. After all Brian Smoke was cute, smart, and a Prefect.
'Okay, where should we meet?'
'In the Entance hall, at eleven. We could go get lunch at the Three Broomsticks and then walk around. It should be fun.' Brian went back to his charm work with a huge grin on his face.
*********
'Brian Smoke asked you OUT?' asked Mayda.
'YEP!' giggled Lily.
'Oh my gosh your so lucky. He's so cute!'
'Yeah.' As you can see Lily was incapable of using full sentences. She was just too excited.
'Wait, isn't Brian bad in D.A.D.A.?' Sara commented as they sat down in the library to finish their homework.
'You know I think your right,' said Lily tentively.
'If he can't protect you, then maybe you could give him private lessons,' she laughed as she winked at Mayda.
'Are you saying that he is not good enough for me? He may not be good atDefense against the Dark Arts but if every boy said that his girlfriend had to be great at Transfigurations you would never have a date either.'
'That's harsh Lily, very harsh,' interjected Mayda.
'She deserved it.'
'Then you deserve this.' Sara opened a mini dung bomb on Lily's head. Small enough to just hit her yet smelly enough for the whole library to stink.
'SARA YOU'RE GOING TO GET IT THIS TIME!'
'Miss Evans,' Madam Nightly exclaimed as she hurried over to Lily and company's table. ' I expect better from the Head Girl. There is no yelling in the Library. MISS EVANS, ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME???'
'Madam Nightly, did you know your yelling in the library?' Lily whispered.
'OUT!!' she yelled as she pulled out her wand from her robes.
'Okay, but you really should be whispering in the library. Uh oh, abort abort. Run away.' With that Lily, Magda and Sara ran as fast as they could, dodging Madam Nightly's hexs all the way.
'Good going Lily. We probably won't be allowed back in for a month,' grumbled Mayda.
'Yeah but I couldn't resist it.'
'You're a bad girl Lily Evans,' scolded Sara.
'Why does everyone keep saying that?'
***********
That night at the dinner table, Brian came over and sat next to Lily.
'Hi.' Lily said with a smile.
'How was you day? Anything interesting happen?' Brian asked with all innocence.
'Oh well, this weird guy asked me out and then I got in trouble with Madam Nightly, but other then that nothing.'
'Oh I see, so going back to this guy who asked you out. Any thoughts about him?'
'Mmmmmm, I don't think so. You're not getting any information out of me, Mr. Smoke.'
'Not even a hint as to where I stand?'
Lily smiled, 'I said yes didn't I?'
'Okay I'll leave you to your secrets but I'm really glad you said yes.'
'I am too. Bye.'
********
'Hey Prongs, is it just me or is Evans really happy today?,' Siruis remarked as he watched Lily.
'She does look happier today. What did you do last night Prongsy?'
'Nothing much really. We just patrolled the school. Caught some bad guys. Nothing really exciting.'
'Then I wonder what she's so happy about then?' Moony asked.
'Can't a girl just be happy for no good reason?' remarked Wormtail as he scratched his head in confusion.
'No Wormtail. Gosh, don't you know anything?' said Padfoot. ' That's not just any happy. It's the happy of a girl in love. I should know.'
'Why should you know? Are you 'a girl in love',' asked Prongs with a sneer.
'No!!!'
'Ri.gh.t. Remind me to change in the bathroom from now on.'
'Whatever you say Moony.'
'Really guys, I want to know what's going on.'
'Okay, Okay Prongsy don't get your panties in a bunch. We'll just go ask them.'
'Now that's what I like to hear. Let us go take action.' James said gallantly as the Marauders walked over to where Lily was and sat down.
'Well Lilikins, what's up?'
'Lilikins?? Were did that come from?' Lily asked as she looked up from her shepherd's pie.
'Oh I just came to me, you know spur of the moment. But Lily you wouldn't be avoiding the question would you?'
'What question?'
'What's Up?'
'Oh nothing. Why do you ask?'
'Oh no reason. Maybe just because you look pretty happy today.'
Lily looked at Mayda and Sara. They all were thinking the same thing. What is it with these guys?
'So what you're saying is I can't look happy for no reason?'
'No, but is the reason you're so happy was that you went on a patrol with Prongsy here last night?'
The girls started laughing.
'Sure it is. And the other reason is because I have a DATE with a cute guy.'
Silence....the Marauders were speechless. Lily had a date? No one noticed that poor James looked shocked, jealous, sad, and angry all at the same time.
'With WHO?'
'That's none of your business Black.'
'Sara who is it?' asked James.
'Hey what makes you think I'll tell you?'
'SARA!' the boys yelled.
'Fine, sorry Lily but they would have found out anyway. Brian Smoke asked Lily to Hogsmeade.
'Smoke? The Captain of the Ravenclaw Quidditch team?'
'One and the same.'
'I can't believe you are going out with the enemy. You know the first Quiddictch match is against them?'
'Oh come on, 'the enemy' you make him sound like he is the epitome of all that is evil.'
'Well he is.'
'You don't know that. You've probably have never talked to him. Besides at least he's nice, unlike four jerks I know,' said Lily.
'You can be just as bad, Miss Evans, so you can't say a word.' taunts James.
'WORD!'
'Oh look at the little comedian,' said James.
'You know what I would like to know, is why it matters to you so much? What do you care if I go out with Brain Smoke?'
'Evans, if you're really that thickheaded, you don't deserve to know.'
The Marauders walked out of the Great Hall. Lily, Mayda, and Sara sat trying to figure out the ways of teenage boys.
'You know we should really study boys is Care of Magical Creatures,' observed Mayda.
'Hear, Hear!'
********
'Calm down Prongs. It's just one date,' Sirius said as they sat down in the overstuffed chairs near the fire in the common room.
'You saw how she was, Smoke would be a fool if he only took Lily out once.'
'True but what are you going to do about it? If we get Smoke to not take her The girls will kill us. Remember what happened last time. I don't want to wake up without any hair again.'
'Oh calm down Padfoot, It all grew back, didn't it?'
'PRONGS!' Sirius, Remus, and Peter yelled, startling the second years that were studying.
'Come on, we have to do something. Even if they go for retaliation, it will at least keep their minds of the other boys.'
'Prongs you're really sick, do you know that?'
'Oh come on Wormtail, you wouldn't want me any other way.'
'Suuurrre, whatever you say.'
'Okay let's plan Operation Sabotage.'
********
Okay here comes the fun. Marauders get Brian, Girls get Marauders, what could be better. I apologize that the chapters will take longer to get up. I'm going to have my mom read it for mistakes so I have to wait till she can read them. This means chapters will go up in spurts. We also will go back and fix the old chapters.
Thanks and please review.
