Chapter 3

I can't believe I said that to him! The look on his face! He looked like he was going to explode with anger! His ears were turning red and that only happens when he's REALLY mad! Lily thought to herself giggling more with every thought. Lily was getting her trunk on the Hogwarts Express; it would be leaving the platform soon.
Lily looked for an empty compartment that she could have all to herself. She found one in the back. Lily heard muffled talking outside the compartment door and then the door opened and who else would be there but Lucius Malfoy, and his crew. (A.N. thought I would've said James and his crew! Fooled you! HAHAHAHAHAHA!)
How lovely! First I had to spend all day with an annoying boy and now when I just find peace and quiet I'm going to be harassed by Malfoy and his crew. I'd rather be stuck with James! Lily thought to herself.
"Well look at what we have here, boys," Malfoy said maliciously. "'Ickle Miss Evans all alone without anyone, again! Oh so sad! EVANS GET OUT OF HERE NOW!"
"I'm fucking leaving! I'd rather be dead ("That can be arranged") then be in the same compartment with you! You are so low! If you were any lower---"
"Oh shut the hell up! I've heard enough from you to last me a lifetime! Now go Evans!"
Lily took her stuff and got out of the compartment. As soon as she closed the door, she took out her wand and she put a spell on them that made their robes say "Evan's Bihach". Lily couldn't find any other empty compartment, so she shared one with Peter Petegrew. Peter is one of James's best friends, though neglected, but still his friend. Peter is about 5 feet 5 inches tall and he looks like a rat.
"Hello Peter, do you mind if I sit here with you?" Lily asked.
"Go ahead, but I warn you that James, Sirius, and Remus are going to be here soon! So if you don't want to be around them then RUN!"
"No that's ok. I'd rather deal with them then deal with Malfoy for another moment! He just kicked me out of my compartment! I jinxed their robes to say 'Evan's Bihach" Lily commented.
Peter and Lily laughed so hard they were rolling on the floor. James, Remus, and Sirius came into the compartment and just stared at Lily and Peter on the floor laughing.
"EHEM" James said loudly.
"Oh, hey guys!" said Peter.
"Umm. Hi." Lily said shyly and also turning slightly red.
She looks so cute when she blushes. I should tell her that in the next letter. She really is everything I want! She's just so perfect for me! She isn't like the other girls; she's just so special! James thought to himself as he sad down on the seat next to Lily. He tried not to look at her. He looked down at his shoes, around the compartment, at his hands, nothing seemed to work. He wanted to stare at Lily, he couldn't get his attention off of her, he could only think of her.
Lily seemed to notice his sudden fidgetiness, and she too started to fidget. This made everyone uncomfortable. So, Remus decided to strike up a conversation.
"So, how was everyone's summer?" he asked.
"Eh it was ok, it wasn't too bad." Lily said.
"Same here." everyone else said together.
The witch who brought the snack trolley was here.
"Any thing off the trolley, dears?" the plump witch asked.
James got up and went over and bought chocolate frogs for everyone. He handed them out leaving the last one for Lily. He smiled at her as she handed it to him, she smiled back.
"Thank you, James" Lily said softly. He looked into her eyes for a few seconds and then looked away. Everyone else in the compartment didn't seem to notice, they were all engaged in conversations of their own.
James sat down and got out parchment and a quill and he began to write a plan of when and how to give Lily the love letter. He wrote:
1) Put it in her dorm. before she or anyone else gets there. 2) Send it by owl from one of the school owls.

Hogwarts School came into view and everyone was dressed in their robes.
"Ready to go everyone?" Lily asked.
"Yep!" James announced for everyone.
James tried to hurry up so that he could talk to Lily for a little bit while everyone else was still getting ready. But in his attempt he fell over his feet and he smashed through the door of the compartment half dressed. Lily turned a bright red, but not as bright as James, especially since his underwear read Sunday when it was really Friday. Lily repaired the door as James ran into the compartment to finish getting ready.
When he got out Sirius was ready for him.
"Geez man! Could you at least try to remember to change your underwear? I mean it's one thing that you wear tighty whities.but you don't have to flaunt it everywhere you go!" Sirius joked.
"Shut up!" James snapped back at him.
Lily just looked away and busied herself with her own doings. She was fumbling with her trunk, when, James came and took it down for her.
"Did you need anything in here?" James asked her pretending nothing happened.
"Yes, I needed to get my lip chap out of it. Thank you for getting my trunk for me!" Lily said.
Lily was in awe because James was never this nice to her.
Oh no! Am I going to regret being nice to her? Is she going to explode in my face? James thought to himself.
Lily was going through her trunk to find her lip gloss. Why is he being so nice to me? What prank did he pull on me? I should make a list of pranks to pull on him! Lily thought.
"Everybody off the train!" the train conductor said in an audible voice.
~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~In the Common Room a Few Hours Later~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
"Night everyone." Lily said yawning. (A/N: On the train, Lily and Remus became fast friends, so Lily hangs out with him and his friends.)
Lily went up to her dormitory and found a piece of parchment on her pillow.
~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~Back in the Common Room~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
"So, James, do you like Evans?" Sirius asked in an evil voice.
"No, of course not!" James said. I don't like her, I love her. thought James.
"Oh I see how it is Jamsie!" Sirius said.
"She's really very nice, and her name's Lily not Evans, Lily." Remus said.
"Yeah." James said dreamily.
~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_The Next Morning~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~
Lily came down into the common room with the piece of parchment.
"Hello, boys," Lily said to Peter, Remus, James, and Sirius. "Look what I have! I, Lily Evans, got a love letter! Does any one want to help me figure out who wrote it?" James looked as if he was going to be sick.
"Sure, I'll help ya!" Sirius said walking over to Lily.
"Ok, here" Lily said handing him the paper.
"Wow! This looks a lot like James's writing!" Sirius commented. Lily looked at James, he avoided her eyes.
"Alright, Sirius, Lily, James, Remus, any one want to go and get something to eat for breakfast?" asked Peter clearly because he didn't want to see this case solved.
"Sure," replied Sirius and Lily at the same time.
"I'll be down in a few minutes." said James.
"Me too" replied Remus because he caught the look on James's face, which was telling him to stay.
Lily, Peter, and Sirius made their way down the common room and out the portrait hole to the Great Hall. "What's up, Jamesie?" Remus asked.
"Let's go over here in this corner, so we can talk privately." James commented signaling over to the first and second years.
"Ok," Remus said.
They moved to that corner of the common room and then James said "Remus, I love Lily, I was the one who wrote her a love letter! I didn't sign it with my name! I signed it as 'secret admirer' What do I do? I think she suspects me!"
"Well," Remus said, "you could get one of those self-writing quills that that second year, Rita Seeker has." he suggested as he gestured toward her. She was sitting in a corner reading book. She had long brown strait hair and brown eyes. She was about 4 feet 11 inches tall.
"Brilliant! Thanks Remus! But what do I do if she asks me about it?"
"Hmmm.memory charm?.How about you just forget about it unless she brings it up?"
"Another brilliant idea! I'm going to go and buy that quill!" James said and he set off like he was on a top secret mission. Remus shook his head and smiled as he watched James walk away.

Who wrote this? Was it really James? Do I like James? Lily thought Or is this just a prank he is trying to pull? I think I will ignore it, unless I get another one! Lily decided as she ate her breakfast.
