Chapter Two: Meeting Lily

"We've looked in every compartment, Prongs," Sirius complained, "And no luck yet, our best chance was that Lucy Pullman, with the dorky teeth."

"No," James replied, "I want to prove that git that we've got the geekiest girl that can be popular."

"We do as well," Remus said, "but I actually want to sit down today."

"OK, OK. We'll go in that last compartment at the end."

They walked the last metre or so and were about to open the door until Alexis Pryne came running up to them shouting, "Hey guys!"

Alexis was smart, and she was the 'Goody two shoes'. But she was also wild, sweet and nice. She had long brown hair with highlights and large hazel eyes. She was going with Remus, for the last year.

"Hi, Honey," she said, kissing him on the cheek. Remus blushed and went off to 'la la land' for a while. "And you!" She turned to Padfoot; "You need to calm Krista down. She's being having a fit for the last hour because of you!"

"OK," Sirius grinned widely, "bests talk to her. Prongs are you coming?"

"Nah, thanks," He knew that Sirius would try to set him up with someone, "Anyway, I need to finished off some homework."

"Homework! Dude! You're supposed do to homework at home. That's why it's called home-work. And you call yourself head boy!"

"Oy! You know that it's a Potter curse!"

"Anyway, are you sure you don't wanna come?"

"Yeah, See ya." James walked in and saw that the compartment wasn't empty. A girl, with fiery red hair, reading Big Book of Magic, was sitting by the window.

Who is she? James thought, closing the door behind him. She jumped and looked around and saw James standing there, staring at her. "Hello," she said, and returned to her book. James sat opposite her and there was an awkward silence for ten minutes, but it seemed like two hours, to James.

James saw a badge on her chest saying 'Head Girl.'

"You're head girl?" he asked.

"Yes," she said, eyes glued on the book.

"Cool, I'm head boy."

"Congrates." James could tell that she wasn't in a mood of talking.

Another awkward silence.

"What house are you in?"

She looked up at him and said, "Gryfinndor, why?"

"I've never seen you before. I'm-" He put a hand on his chest, and was about to say his name, but the Fiery Head interrupted.

"James Potter, I know." She returned to her book, her glasses nearly falling off.

"Can I know your name?"

"Lily Evans." She said, simply shrugging her shoulders.

"Pretty name." he replied, truthfully.

"Thanks," she said blushing.

"So, how come I've never seen you around before?" James asked.

"I spend all of my time in the Library. It won't be the last the I've fallen asleep in the library." She laughed. If you were to call it a laugh. To James, it sounded like a donkey, having a cough attack.

He smiled weakly and let out a fake laugh, which Lily took as a real one.

"Well, it was nice talking to you." James stood up and walked to the door, "See ya around, I guess."

"Yeah, bye." Lily said and began to read her book, thinking, well, he was nice.

As he closed the door, he thought, OK, glasses were so thick, they make her eyes huge! Braces and a lisp! A big Bookworm! A laugh of a donkey and top girl student, as she's head girl! James said, "Yes!" We have our geek!
