This is a story about James and Lily (duh) and how James realizes that he
wants to discover the more serious things in life.
It's not really a serious fic. More of a comedy. But there you go. Any
ideas on a plot, I have vague ideas but any more and I'll try to
incorporate them.
Disclaimer: I do not own any character you know. Evelyn Edwards is based on me. Weird I know, you can probably see from this fic that I'm a real clumsy dunce.
Chapter one: What a start to the year!
Sirius stared at his best friend in disbelief. James grinned and waved the glinting badge in the sunlight, in front of his friend's face.
"Bloody hell! How did you manage that?" Sirius asked looking bemused.
"I don't know do I?" laughed James. "Dumbledoor must have lost the plot. Again."
The two eighteen year old boys stood waiting on the edge of platform nine and three quarters for their other friend Remus Lupin.
Their other friend Peter Petigrew had severe constipation and had to stay at home for five months until his bowels started moving again, (a/n hahahahahahahahaha)
It was ten to ten and the train was getting ready to embark on its ten- hour journey from Kings Cross London to Hogsmede in Scotland.
James sighed and ruffled his hair. Yet another year meaningless fun, pranks and relationships.
Sure, it had been a laugh for the last god knows how many years, but this year, he wanted something more serious to occur. He was to leave Hogwarts this year. Go out into the unknown and dangerous world. He didn't want to leave not knowing the meaning of a serious situation or relationship.
He had first realized this strange ambition at the end of his last year where he had saved fellow students life, despite the fact that they had been enemies from square one.
It was here James realized that there were serious things in life. And these serious things were waiting to be discovered.
It was Remus Lupin, his other best friend who broke up his wandering thoughts.
"Hey Prongs" he said casually patting James on the shoulder. A casual greeting. James looked up and grinned back. He felt he should get to know this friend better this year.
They had been friends for many years, but not really known each other. They were from almost different planets. Remus from planet earth and James from lala land. He hoped that getting to know Remus might help him comprehend who he was as a person and what his destiny was in life.
When the greetings had been completed the three friends climbed aboard the Hogwarts express and went to find a compartment.
They search from one end of the train to the other but found no free compartments. The only one that they could squeeze into contained the boys other friends.
Jennifer Adams, Evelyn Edwards, Cassidy Lloyd, Jessica Mae and Lily Evans. All of which were extremely beautiful, intelligent, popular and mad. Mad to the bone, just like the lads. One reason why they all got on like a house on fire.
Well, except maybe James and Lily. There had always been a bit of hostility between them. Lily thought James was a stuck up prick and James thought Lily was a stuck up know it all. Although deep down he was very fond of her.
They all stopped laughing abruptly when the boys walked in. They one by one they jumped up and flung themselves onto the boys in a bone-crushing hug.
"Hey babes!" Sirius laughed falling backwards into the seats. Two of the girls fell with him and they all landed in a laughing heap on the floor. "Bloody hell, the things you do with ya mates!"
James while laughing at his friends and hugging Evelyn turned to acknowledge Lily for the first time.
"Hey Lil's" he inclined his head. She only half returned the grin before turning to face her friends lying on the floor crushing Sirius.
"I'll see you guys later" she laughed. The girls red-faced and puffed out tried to straighten themselves up.
"Oh all right. Cheerio then." Cassidy said while composing herself.
"Why where are you going?" asked Evelyn stifling a laugh and untangling herself from James's embrace.
"Head compartment" she said pointing to the badge on her chest. The others looked on admiringly.
"Lucky cow" Jenny muttered. "Hey does anyone know the head boy? I notice it isn't you Remmy, you aren't wearing the badge." She said pointing at Remus's chest.
He nodded and shrugged. The others looked thoughtful.
"Maybe it's Amos Diggory." Suggested Jessica. The others looked.
"There is no way- that I am ever- working- with- that- dickhead." Said Lily trying to remain calm over the fact that Remus was not head boy.
"Don't worry Lil's he doesn't have brains enough. He is nothing but a hufflePUFF." Giggled Evelyn. She did a gay wave at the end of her sentence to emphasize the point. Lily grinned.
"Well however it is, let me know. I will have to work my girly charms on him. Imagine the power I would have over my fellow students if I was dating head boy!" Jessica said seductively. James blushed a bit.
"What you blushing for head boy?" Sirius nudged James. James shot him the most evil glare he could muster. But it was too late.
"WHAT?? WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST CALL HIM??" Lily had her hand on her chest and was breathing deeply. "You're not- you cant be.no.no Dumbledoor is not.not that mad surely? No. That was a horrid joke you prick!! Why cant you ever be serious?"
"Oh but my dear lady, I think you'll find I am in more ways than one. Way one, that is my name on the birth certificate" (many people rolled their eyes at this) "and the other way, is that I was not joking in the slightest. No siree. Jimmy boy here, has landed himself with the head boy job. The world has gone corrupt," he said in mock-tragic manor.
Lily stood wide eyes gaping at James. "I have to work. With you. All year?" she said.
"Well, I spose its better than working with he who must be nutters." He said refering to the dark lord. Lily just looked at him. She was not amused. She turned and walked out of the compartment.
"Lily wait!" called Evelyn running to catch up with her. Instead, she tripped over the entrance to the compartment and fell headfirst into the food trolley knocking pasties, chocolate frogs, and bertie botts beans every where. The pumpkin juice flew into the air almost in slow motion and landed on the unsuspecting old lady.
The lady yelped in fright as the two-pint jug plummeted towards her head, the orange, sticky liquid making its way closer and closer towards her frayed gray hair. There was a sickening splash as it landed. She stepped backwards in fear, and knocked a first year backwards who tripped on the bertie botts.
She fell knocking the lunch out of someone else's hands and it catapulted and landed on the floor. Well, almost. On Evelyn's head who was sitting, covered head to toe in who knows what.
To add insult to injury, the students, all curious to know what the yelping had been about, pocked their heads out of compartment doors. Everyone laughed.
They laughed at Evelyn sitting in the mess on the floor, of the poor first year who had lost their lunch and at the old lady, lying on her back with her skirt over her head, flashing a pair of luminous pink and yellow striped knickers.
What at a start to the year.
Hello peeps. Please review, I don't usually write stories so if I'm crap, let me know and I'll give up. If you like it let me know and I'll update.
In the next chapter:
The gang's gay friends come in. Oh dear. More arguments and a possible truce between James and Lily. And someone's in lurve.
Cheerio!
