Chapter Three
The months went by happily for Lily and James. They celebrated Halloween, Christmas, Easter, Lily's birthday, James's birthday, other friends' birthdays, among other holidays together. They did pranks on enemies and shared good times together. Everyone thought that they would get together by the end of the year.
~*~
Towards O.W.L.S though, Lily was a wreck. She kept on trying to memorize the library. Her other friends were just as worried, well, except James and Sirius. They kept trying to get everyone to lighten up. They were failing miserably.
The two had come up with a 'brilliant plan' according to them. They planned to put this into action just before the tests. They couldn't wait to have their friends back.

(A Few Days before the Test)
Lily and the others were in the common room studying, what a surprise. She was going over Herbology notes, when suddenly a bunch of firecrackers went off in the room. Everyone started screaming and the prefects tried to calm everyone down. Then all of the gang's notes were blown out of the window by a burst of wind through the common room. Lily felt so angered and was ready to tear whoever did this apart. She heard laughing by the fireplace. It was James and Sirius.
Remus was trying to get the notes back while everyone else just sat there stunned because now they had nothing to study from. Lily ran over to them and slapped them both.
"HOW COULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS? NOW WE HAVE NOTHING TO STUDY FROM! MERLIN, YOU TWO CAN BE SO IMMATURE SOMETIMES!" Lily screamed at them.
"Lighten up, Lils. We were just trying to get you away from studying. We know that the tests are important, but honestly, do you need to study everyday and night?" James asked her.
Lily was livid but then he smiled at her and it went down a little. "Let's go to breakfast"
~*~
During breakfast, Lily was still angry at them but her fondness for James helped an awful lot.
Just then a Hufflepuff girl by then name of Jessica Appleby came and sat on James's lap. She smiled at him and started to snog him. After five minutes of this torture, Sirius kicked him underneath the table.
"Ow! Oh, yeah, people, this is my girlfriend Jess. Isn't she great," He said with a dreamy expression. Everyone looked from James to Lily with a surprised/horrid look on their faces. They knew Lily liked James.
"Lily, what's wrong?" a clueless James asked her. Jess smiled smugly at her.
"What's wrong? You're a conceited idiot that's what. I hate you James Potter. I hate you for hurting me and for losing my notes you selfish prick." With that, Lily ran from the room.
"What just happened?"
Remus glared at James. "You just lost a good friend James. You're really thick, you know that." Everyone left James and Jessica to snog at the table.
~*~
Lily never wanted to talk to James again. They constantly fought. James realized what life without Lily was like. He also realized that he liked her more than a friend. He always had but never really thought about it. To him, she was just 'one of the guys'.
Everyone else forgave him for being a prat but Lily never did. She hated him; at least that's what she told everyone. James isn't know what to do, so he had many girlfriends to try and forget Lily. It never worked.
The summer before 7th year though, he promised to himself that he would change.
A/N - Well, there you go. Post more tomorrow or maybe tonight.
