Underneath It All
Summery
James Potter is the most popular guy in school, but only because of his wealth and looks. He never talks to anyone besides his 3 best friends if he can help it. And James has one rule: never fall in love, but what happens when he meets Lily Evans? Because buried under all the money, good looks and Quidditch is a heart of gold.

Hogwarts, most of the teachers, Lily, James, Sirius, Remus, Peter, Hogsmead and anything else you recognize belongs to J.K Rowling. Lily's friends and anyone or anything you don't recognize belongs to me, including the plot.
Thanks for all the reviews. U guys are so cool! Sorry this took so long, my holiday was longer then I expected, but I'm not complaining, I got to see Pirates of the Caribbean again. If you haven't seen it yet I recommend that you do. It's the best movie in the world, so go see it..but not now, after you've read this chapter.
Okay, on with the chapter
James woke the next morning to icy water being poured over his head and three faces peering down at him.
'What.what the hell was that for, you idiots' he spluttered at his best friends, and at the same time trying to shake his sopping hair out of his eyes.
'Ah, the beast has awoken' said Sirius, smirking
'Sirius, in the nicest possible way, are you insane?' James asked grumpily.
'Now why in the world would you ask that' Sirius said, still grinning
'Well it would explain why you find it necessary to pour cold water on me at this hour'
Sirius chuckled. 'James, you slept in, we've missed half of breakfast. We could have gone down without you, but being the nice friends we are we waited, so now you will feel no need to curse us because of our harmless joke'
'Harmless joke!' James fumed 'Sirius, I'm bloody freezing. It'll be amazing if I don't catch cold.. A really bad one'
Remus flicked his wand and James was dry
James got ready quickly, he didn't want to miss breakfast
'If you have to curse anyone, curse Sirius, it was his idea' said Remus, as they made their way down the stairs
'Oh sure blame me, Moony' Sirius said, punching him lightly on the shoulder.
When James entered the great hall, he was immediately met by the smell of breakfast. All of a sudden he felt extremely hungry.
Not looking where he was going, James ran straight into someone leaving the great hall. As James stuck out his hand to help the person up he realized it was the red-haired girl from the prefect meeting the night before.
'Oh gosh, I'm so sorry' the girl said as she stood up, shaking her wavy hair from her eyes. 'but that's me for ya, always the clumsy one'. The girl grinned
'Right' said James, nodding. He had to admit he was a little freaked out by the girl's cheerfulness.
'Lily, you coming or what?' called a girl by the doors
'I'm coming, Tasha' the girl, obviously called Lily yelled over her shoulder.
'Anyway, I'll see you around James' Lily said
'Yeah, bye. wait, how did you know my name?' asked James uncertainly
'I dunno. word gets around' said Lily, walking away
James stood there puzzled. No one usually was that comfortable talking to him, besides his friends and teachers. Not that he minded people being comfortable while talking to him, it was just weird.
James shrugged, quickly walked over to the Gryffindor table and sat down.
'So, charming one of your lady friends' asked Sirius while the others tried to hide their laughs.
'Sirius, I don't even know her' said James as he helped himself to some eggs.
'Well, whoever she is, she's hot' said Sirius grinning
'Really, Sirius is that all you think about?' asked Remus.
'Do you really wanna know the answer to that?'
'No, we really don't' said James, laughing.
Sorry that was short and didn't really tell much about the story. Someone (I can't really remember who) asked why Lily and James are in different years. It's for the sake of the story so just pretend Lily was a year younger then James.
Anyway read n' review peoples.
Peace.
