Note My first Harry Potter fic. This is hopefully a Lily and James work, but it might change over the um...chappers. Thanks a bunch. Now enjoy
Provisions for the Test
"Hello there, Miss Evans," Lily turned around to find the dark brown eyes of Lucius Malfoy staring at her. She lost herself in those mystifying eyes. Almost all the girls in the school wanted Malfoy, Malfoy and the Maruaders, a little foursome James Potter and Sirius Black made, adding Remus Lupin and the other prangster Perer Pettigrew. Every girl in Hogwarts wanted them, every girl but Lily. Lily didn't want them, she wanted to be a witch.
"Oh. Hi Malfoy," Lily said back as she rushed down the hall to Charms, but Malfoy put his body in her way, and blocked Lily's retreat.
"I was wondering, Lily, if you wouldn't mind having dinner with me tomorrow up at the astronomy tower," He called to her with his soothing voice. Lily found herself wanting him more than ever.
"Lay off Malfoy. She doesn't want you," James said as he turned around the corner.
"I don't need coaching from you, James," Lily said icily.
"And she wouldn't want to go with your type, James. I regret ever being related to the pig of a dad you have. Maybe father could perform the Chappelous Spell, and rid his blood from yours." Malfoy said in a cool voice that denied the redness that was coming to his face.
Lily and James drew their wands at the same time. James shouted, "GREPHIS," the curse of amazement. It turned all those put under it into a veela for two days. Lily called out "EXPELIARMUS," and James' wand shot out of his hand.
"You know the rules, Potter. No spells in the hallway," Lily said as she turned and walked away with Malfoy's arm around her waist.
(~*~*~*~*~)
"What's up with her. I've been trying to get her since the first time we met, and she's been blowing me off." James asked to nobody.
"Don't worry, Jamesy. You can't get all the girls. At least leave some to your old friend." James turned to see Sirius walking up to him, followed by Remus and Peter.
"We can get Malfoy later," Remus said naturally. For a shabby looking boy, James found him really smart.
"I'm not so sure, Remus," Sirius backed away with a smile on his face. "I would much prefer getting that black poodle."
"You mean Snape," Peter piped up. Transfiguration was his best subject.
"Exactly,"
"Well, he did dance well," James cheered up as the boys started to talk about what they could do. They decided to change Malfoy into a Troll, and Snape into a beautiful blonde. The perfect plan.
(~*~*~*~*~)
Dinner came after a boring class of Potions. Everybody was feeling down, and Malfoy, especially his lapdog Snape, looked too happy. James found out that potions was their best class.
The school started eating in silence, the first silence James had ever seen in the school. He looked up to Sirius, who had a bored expression on his face. Remus was busying himself on his pumpkin pie, and Peter was scoffing James' food. James took his spoon, and gently tapped it on the side of his goblet. A dull clang resounded from it, followed by a scream from across the room. All four looked up.
A massive cave troll was chasing an exact replica of a blonde Manibell Partelou. The Headmaster, Professor Dumbledore looked up from his plate, and smiled at the four mischief makers. Quickly lifting his wand, he muttered a few words, before he too was changed into a troll, and started chasing after the blonde.
Professor McGonagoll was finishing her pumpkin pie when the Headmaster turned into a troll. Thinking she knew better, she cast a few gold sparks on the professor. None of her transfiguration spells worked before she became a blonde Manibell Parelou.
All hell was loose on the Great Hall for dinner, and the Marauders just sat back and laughed with the rest of the school. The only person who didn't laugh was Lily Evans.
(~*~*~*~*~)
"Why did you do that to Malfoy?" Lily asked James as he entered the common room.
"What? Don't tell me your siding with that bafoon," James laughed as he saw Lily's face go red.
"A bafoon or not, he's the one I let court me, so you better be nice."
"Or what, Miss Evans. You'll curse me for the rest of the year. You know he's going to hurt you. He's going to test you, and when you fail, your history."
"Exactly."
"Exactly what?" James asked
Lily didn't have to answer. As soon as the words he finished talking, his unruly hair turned into a mass of spider webs. All across the common room, spiders disappeared, including a giant tarantula that Sirius smuggled from the Care of Magical Creatures class, and landed on James' head. Lily left out of the Gryffindor Common room with a triumphant smile on her face.
"I don't think you should talk like that Jamesy. You might get in more trouble," She heard Sirius say as she left them far behind.
(~*~*~*~*~)
"Ah! Lily dear. Glad you could make it." Lily gasped as two strong arms found their way around her waist. She looked up to find Lucius Malfoy bending down for a kiss. She let him as her hunger for him grew.
