Author's note: Sad that no one reviewed my last chapter.*sob*. Maybe I was expecting too much I guess. Hmm anyway, here's the next chapter for you!
Chapter Five
It took 3 days before James' broken arm finally mended. Madam Pomfrey clucked disapprovingly.
"Really, you kids should know better than to break his poor arm," she told them with a slight frown as James let out an exaggerated sigh when Lily, Phoebe, Remus, Peter and Sirius came to take him back to the common room.
"We didn't break it!" Peter replied indignantly, earning another frown from the nurse, "He broke it himself while trying to break a wooden board with his vare hands!"
The rest of them fought them a laugh as James' expression changed under Madam Promfrey's glare.
"Is that true, Mr. Potter? Your explanation doesn't seem to fit in with theirs," she questioned.
James squirmed. "Well, I was too hurt and maybe, urm, I forgot some of the incidents."
"And thus you were under the idea that your arm became broken after Ms. Evans here broke it as revenge for her boyfriend Snape," the nurse commented, while the rest of them grinned, with the exception of Lily, who looked as though she was going to puke. Her eyes flashed angrily at him.
Oh no, James thought as he saw her expression, my arm is really gonna be broken by her this time.

Exams had started. Although none of them actually realized it, everyone started getting more irritable, even Lily and James, both whom were usually at the top of the class.
"Hey Lily, I want my book back. Thanks," James shouted to Lily one evening when she returned from the library, carrying her completed homework. She preferred to do it in the library as there were often a lot of distractions in the common room (provided with the courtesy of James Potter and Sirius Black). "Your book? But I am not finished with it yet! You agreed to lend it to me till Friday!" Lily pushed her hair out of her face while carrying her books in the other hand.
"Well, I need it now. Please return my book."
"That's not fair! You agreed to lend it to me!"
"Hey Evans, It's my book! If I want it back, it means I want it back!"
"I don't care! I will return it to you only on Friday night, 11.59pm!"
"I need it NoW!"
"Well, so do I!"
"You have already finished your work, I haven't!"
"The book doesn't contain any information to help you in your homework! You just want your book back!"
"Yes that's right! And you must have finished reading the book, since you know what information it contains! So give it back to me now!"
"So? I want to re-read the book!"
"You freak!"
"I'm not, you jerk!"
"Freak!"
"Jerk!"
"Hey will the two of you break it up?! The rest of us are cramming for the exams here!" One girl from Lily's dorm, Rachel, spoke up with a frown.
"Yeah, if you two want to have some lovetalk together, please go to a private place!" Another student shouted.
Lily looked disgusted. "Me, Lily Evans, liking him? No way! I will never like boys! They are disgusting!"
"Girls aren't any better, if they are all like Lily Evans!"
"You boys all suck!" "Girls suck too!"
"We don't!"
"You do!"
"We DoN'T!"
"You DO!"
"SHUT THE HELL UP YOU TWO! WE NEED TO STUDY!" Rachel hollered at them. Looking at her fierce face, their voices subsided as James stormed back into his dorm and Lily into hers with Phoebe.
When they were back into the dorm, Phoebe tried to comfort Lily.
"Come on Lil, don't be so angry with James. I guess he was just in a bad mood," Phoebe soothed, trying to explain on James' behalf.
"I'm not angry. Just pissed off I guess. James is always pissing me off in one way or another. Argh!"
"Aw, at least it's better to be pissed off than pissed on, yeah?"
At her words, Lily couldn't help but gave a tiny grin. "I guess so. All I hope is Potter gets pissed on!"
"That's mean, but hey, it will be funny!" Phoebe laughed. Before she herself knew it, Lily too joined in.
~*~
"Hey! That's my robes you are packing!" Phoebe squealed as Lily stopped.
"Oh! Ok, no wonder it looked so big," she grinned. Phoebe laughed.
"Ya right!"
Time flew past, and exams had ended and it was finally the last day of school (I know this is quick, sorry guys, but I really want to move on to my actual storyline. If you don't like this arrangement though feel free to tell me =P).
As the four boys, Lily and Phoebe entered a train compartment, Lily sighed. It seemed only like a while before when she had just met Remus and the all the rest. She took her seat by the window again, as Remus sat down beside her.
"So how has the year been for you?" He asked, looking at her profile.
Lily turned to face him. "Not all that bad actually," she admitted, "If not for that potter making trouble for me everywhere, right from the start of the year!" Lily made a face as Remus laughed softly.
"Actually, James is not as bad as you make him out to be. He just likes to make fun of you, that's all," He explained in his clam voice.
"What? And you call that 'that's all'? I have been positively tortured by him all year!" Lily shrieked. Opposite her, James snickered.
"Aww, Lily, you can't blame anyone but yourself. It's just your own fault you make a perfect candidate for playing pranks on!"
"Shut up James!"
"Bleah. It's no fun talking to you anyway." With that, James turned back to the game he was playing.
"You get the idea of how much I suffered now?" Lily sighed. Remus could only grin.
"Ah well, he's James. By the way, what are you doing over the holidays?"
"Homework?"
Remus gagged. "Ok. Besides that."
"Hmm, Phoebe!" At here Lily grinned, having a brainwave.
"Yes Lily?" Phoebe replied, not taking her eyes of the exploding 'snapE' (newly invented by James and Sirius) she was playing with Peter, Sirius and James.
"Want to meet up sometime during the hols?" Lily asked, her eyes sparkling in anticipation.
"Why not? Sure!" Phoebe smiled at her. Just then, Snape exploded.
"Ahh! No way, I made sure Snape was not in danger when it was my turn!" Phoebe protested.
"Come on, admit it. Snape exploded at the sight of you," Peter laughed.
~*~
"Mum, Dad! I'm home!" Lily shouted happily as she bounced into her home.
"Hi sweetheart, welcome home," Her mother gave a tired smile as she gave Lily a hug. Lily returned the hug.
Her father, on the other hand, only nodded at her, and his head retreated behind the newspaper again. Petunia was nowhere to be seen.
What's happening? Lily wondered as she looked at her parents' attitudes.
There! A cliffhanger! If there are actually people reading this, I hope you will review and tell me what you think! Please! The reviews are all that keeps me going!
