Years three through five flew by for Lily. In fourth year, after an especially torturous meeting with James and Co, Lily had sunk into depression for six months. Fifth year, Lily and Remus had gotton to know each other really well. The summers were best in Lily's opinion. Whenever the Potter's and Evans' got together, James and her would act like best friends and to Lily it felt almost like the old times that she cherished.
The summer before sixth year, Lily's family had gone to France for the summer where they owned a house. That summer of Lily's best of best, for she blossomed into a gorgeous redhead. She was petite, 5'3, with a slim, hourglass shape figure. The french boys had gone absolutely nuts over her and she got a boost of confidence. She didn't develop an ego though because she felt that the English boys would still think of her as 'nerd' as the way James had called her that.
Lily sat in her room packing to go back to Hogwarts. She wasn't sure what to wear so she pulled out everything in her closet and Petunia's and she and Petunia ( A/N: they were friends until Vernon came along) decided to make her wear a green off-the-shoulder top and whit flares with black ankle boots. Lily smiled to herself, she had a plan to make James pay for everything he had done to her since that day in second year.

James Potter had everything he could ask for, he was the most popular guy in school (A/N:thanks to Lori) had the three most awesomest friends in the world(A/N: unfortunetly one of them will betray him and KILL the Potters....DIE RAT!), and on top of that he was doing great academically.
James and Sirius had spent the summer working out and now had erm...really nice bodies. VERY muscular( a/n: I like 'em that way!lol).But still James for some reason felt as if something was missing from his life. He couldn't place his finger on it, but something was missing. He shrugged it off as he and the rest of the Marauders packed their bags for Hogwarts.

Lily hugged her parents goodbye. She had come to the station half and hour early so she and Melanie could get a compartment to themselves. She rushed through the barrier where she a heard a loud a gasp. She turned to see Melanie standing there. Melanie had also gotten beautiful during the summer. She stood a 5' 7 with her brown locks down to her shoulders and slightly curled. Her eyes stood out with the help of black eyeliner. Melanie's face was in awe. "L..L..Lily?????Is that y..you?!?!?!?!?!" she stuttered.
Lily grinned, "The one and only!" They two girls hugged and climbed onto the train. They settled themselves in a compartment and began whispering details of their summers.
Soon the door slid open and a handsome boy with sandy blonde hair stepped in gaping.
"WHOA! Wow! Lily? and Mel? you guys look terrific!" he said.
The two girls laughed and Melanie replied, "Not looking bad yourself Mr. Remus!"
The three laughed and Remus stayed a couple minutes to chat then left again to find the other Marauders.
Lily turned to Melanie and said, "This year is going to be great Mel. I can feel it! AND I have an awesome plan for getting back at Potter."
Melanie grinned and she and Lily spent the next two hours thinking up ways to kill James and Sirius's reputation.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~(boys compartment with Moony)
The door opened and James and Sirius ran in. They shut the door behind them and locked it. You could hear pounding on the other side.Moony looked up at them and grinned.
"Your fan clubs back again?" he joked.
Sirius looked terrified. "With reinforcements."
Moony and Wormtail laughed as the other two tried to catch their breaths. ( They had been running from the mob for the past half-hour.)
The four sat down and discussed their summers. Remus had gone to Italy and had brought back back these ridiculus looking hats for James and Sirius.( The hats were long and jesterish looking with Italy's flag colors on them) For Peter he brought back these preserved shrubs that were only found on one mountain in Italy. (Peter is a herbology freak btw) He had left the rest of the souvineirs in the bag ( the one's for Lily and Mel) . Peter had gone to Greece and had brought back chocolate for the rest of them. James and Sirius ( who as you know had spent the summer at James's house) made sure to remember to get the others a BIG presents at Christmas.
Sirius got up and opened the door so he and Remus could go and search for the food-cart lady and James stayed with Peter discussing new pranks to pull on the Slytherins.
As the two made their way up the train, Sirius spotted something that left him hanging. A girl, with long beautiful auburn hair and bright green eyes was walking towards them. He had a nagging feeling that he'd seen her before... but he wasn't sure where. She walked past Sirius without a word or a glance and Sirius snapped out of his trance at once. He turned to look at Remus who was on the ground laughing.
"What's so funny?" he growled.
Remus laughed harder but spoke in between laughes, "She....just....walked...right past you! hahahaha! That must be the first girl in history to do so."
But he was wrong. As they continued again, Sirius stopped dead to see ANOTHER gorgeous girl walking towards him. This one with brown hair. She brushed past him and didn't even blink.
Remus was on the ground laughing so hard he had tears streaming down his face. Sirius's face was priceless.
"TWO girls in ONE day, my my Sirius. your either losing your touch or those girls have just set a record." Remus choked.
Sirius glared at him and having lost his appetite, dragged Remus back to their compartment. Thank fully they didn't see the girls again.
They walked into their compartment and Remus burst out laughing again. James and Peter looked up quizically and Sirius was screaming, "SHUT UP!SHUTUPSHUTUPSHUTUP!"
James, by now, HAD to know what happened. He shook Remus asking, "What was so funny?What the heck was so funny?"
Remus gasped for breath and repeated what had happened earlier. By the end of it James, Peter and Remus were laughing their heads off and Sirius was sitting down with his hands folded across his chest.
Suddenly the compartment door opened and a girl 's head popped in.The guys stopped laughing at once. It was the same redhead as before(A/n:Lily). She peeped in and mumbled an apology before slamming the door closed.
James looked at the door after she had left and asked to no on in particular, "Who was she?"
Remus looked at Sirius who was still fuming about the two girls and said, "That was the redhead which ignored Sirius."
James's jaw dropped. "Good God, she's gorgeous. I wonder who she is? Does she have a boyfriend? What year is she in? Who are her friends?"
Remus shrugged but was thinking, "She's Lily Evans. She doesn't have a boyfriend. She's in sixth year like us, and her friends are me and Mel and she used to be yours before you hurt her."
Remus didn't say anything much the rest of the ride. He was thinking about a certain brown haired, honey eyed,shy girl.
Next chap: What will Hogwarts say to Lily and Melanie? What will James do to her next? befriend her or hurt her? Sirius will get a shock. And Remus a crush. *whispers* can I kill off Peter??? Oh right I can't. Poop. NEXT CHAPTER WILL NOT BE WHAT YOU THINK! Lily has an evil plan, a VERY evil plan. Please review! Brownies to all who do! Pwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeez???
