"Oh god not potter again!" Said Seventeen year old Lily Evans. James

potter had just walked into the Gryffindor common room. "I wish eh would

go and fall of his broom stick!" she said to her best friend Lyra Zalize.

"Yeah, yeah, I bet you do." Lyra said offhandedly. 'But I still think you

should give him a try... there is a Hogsmeade trip this weekend, he is

bound to ask you, he always does." She said flicking through her

transfiguration notes.

"Even if he does ask me I will not go with him." said Lily stubbornly,

looking at her notes as well.

"Why?" she asked. "He's perfect! But he is not really my type." she

said, eyeing Sirius Black with interest.

"But do you know what that ass said to me?" She asked, Looking at

Lyra in disbelief.

"UH..NO!" she said, sounding highly annoyed.

"He said that since I am head girl and he is head Boy then we are

bound to get... oh my gosh get this... he thinks we will get married!" she

said rolling her eyes.

"When did he say that?" Lyra asked looking astounded.

"On the platform before coming to school."Lily said looking

depressed.

Just then James stood up and walked over to Lily and Lyra.

"Oh god, don't look now but he is coming over here!" said Lyra

looking into her lap to hide how hard she was laughing at the look on Lily's

face.

"NOW! Oh no, no, no! Im leaving." she said starting to pick up her

things. But she was not quick enough, James was already standing right

behind her. She turned around quickly and ran right into James.

"Whoa, where's the fire Evans?" he asked casually.

"What do you want Potter?" she spat at him, she glared at Lyra who

was turning her laughter into a fit of coughing.

"Well, as I am sure you already know, there is a Hogsmeade trip this

weekend, and -"

"You knew when you came over here what the answer was, so why

don't you get back to shoving your head up your own ass and leave me

ALONE!" she shouted and stormed off of to the girls dormitories.

Lyra who was still trying hard not to laugh looked at James and said

"sorry mate, you tried, but there is no convincing her." she said starting to

walk away.

"But wait, what did I do?" James asked staring after Lily. Lyra

shrugged her shoulders and ran off after Lily.

"Damn mate, she turned you down again, that has got to be a

record for you." James turned around to see who was talking to him. It

was Sirius, his best friend. James slumped down in an arm chair and stared

into the fire.

"I just wish she would give me a chance. I think I've changed a bit.. I

think." said James rather lamely.

"Well mate, it is not my place to say but I don't think she likes you

very much." Said Sirius, rather seriously.

"Hello captian obvious!" said James looking at Sirius in disbelief.

"I'm just joking mate! She is bound to warm up to you some time!"

said Sirius cheerfully. "After all you are head boy and girl, you have to

spend SOME time together." he said laughing. James just sat there looking

at Sirius.

"I guess it could have been worse." said James miserably.

"Well why don't you sleep on it, it is getting lat." said Sirius standing

up and yawning.

"I guess your right." said James, starting up to the boys dormitory.
