=Chapter 4=
The 7 weeks flew by quickly. It was time to get back to England so that Lily could get her school supplies. When they got on the flight, they were told to go to the same seats as before. Lily did so, and was soon joined by James Potter. He had a glint in his eye which caused Lily to ask,
"What did you do now?"
James looked at her with an eyebrow raised, "You can tell when I do something?"
"Is that a trick question?"
"What kind of an answer is that? Well, you see… I was moved here because Padfoot- err- Sirius broke my glasses last flight. So-"
=
Meanwhile, up in first class, Sirius's front pocket just exploded.
=
"You put a cherry bomb in his front pocket?" Lily asked, her eyes wide, "How did you do that without him noticing???"
James looked at her again, "I'll teach you… if you go out with me," he added quickly, "Go on, Evans! Go out with me! Heck, I'll teach you on our first date if you want."
Lily rolled her eyes and turned the other way. She slept for the rest of the trip.

As soon as she got home, two owls delivered her letters. The usual from Hogwarts, and the other one from Ness asking if she could go with them to Diagon Alley.
"Mom, Dad? Can I PLEASE go with them?" She asked using some puppy dog eyes.
"Sure! Just be sure to come home by 10:00, or call telling us where you are!" Her parents answered. Lily jumped for joy and ran up the stairs to get dressed. Petunia was blocking her
door.
"Going to get your supplies I see! Sometimes I ask myself why I have to share a home with a freak," She sneered.
"Funny," Lily replied, coldly, "I ask mum and dad that every day." She walked around her elder sister and went to get dressed.
=
"That trip was horrid," Sirius complained as the three walked back into the Potter Manor. It was large and spacious, but very homey as well.
"Remus, cut your hair! Remus, Your posture!" He put down his book to imitate James's Grandmother.
James and Sirius laughed at a decent imitation.
Three owls dropped off a Hogwarts letter for each of them.
"You guys can go and get your supplies today," Mr. Potter said while walking through the door. As soon as he was out of ear shot, Mrs. Potter came in looking tired.
"Maureen, James's hair is messed up, it came from your side of the family!" She mocked, "Maureen, I complain about everything and soon, your head will explode from all my
COMPLAINTS!" Her voice grew louder with every word. The three boys laughed at the imitation, and got ready for Diagon Alley.
=
"Wow, Lily! You spent the whole weekend with Potter?" Belle asked, her face glowing.
"Who wouldn't give to be in your shoes???" Ness asked.
"And I thought summer was supposed to help me get away from the marauders," Lily sighed.
"I truly am hurt," They heard a voice from behind them. All three turned to look at Sirius Black.
The other three marauders were surrounding him, all four wearing identical smiles. Sirius was clutching his robes with his right hand, the other placed on his head, "And, dear Lily-kins, I thought you LOVED US!"
Lily just grabbed her friends and ran.
=
The four boys watched as the three girls ran the opposite way and burst out laughter.
"How was your summer?" Peter asked.
"Horrible," James answered, "We spent summer at my Grandmother's house." The three boys then began to imitate James's grandmother, "James, comb your hair."
"Sirius, button up all those buttons!"
"Remus, shine those shoes!"
Peter then started to laugh. His laugh sounded like a fish gasping for air (have you ever heard someone laugh like that?).
=
"Wow! Lily, look!" Ness said, pointing at the window of a shop, "Wizard camera's are on sale!"
"So?" Lily and Belle asked in unison.
"You can take pictures and save them! Next year IS our last year at Hogwarts after all, why not make a scrapbook to remember everything that happened?"
They thought about this for a moment, "Good idea," Lily said, "I love scrap books!"
They all walked in and bought one wizard camera each.
===
"Bye mum, bye dad!" Lily gave them both kisses, "I love you, so much! See you for Christmas!"
"Bye Lily!" They said in unison.
A bell rang throughout the platform which meant they hadto load the Hogwarts Express.
"I'll owl you whenever I can!" Lily said as she joined her friends. They all went into the second to last compartment with Alice again, and heard a familiar explosion sound next door. Today they decided to ignore it by:
"TRUTH, DARE, DOUBLE DARE, PROMISE TO REPEAT?!" Ness screamed to Lily.
"Truth," Lily answered peacefully.
"If you were forced to date a hufflepuff, who would it be?"
Lily thought for a moment, "Amos Diggory, I guess."
"OOH! LILY GOT THE HOTS FOR MR. DIGGORY?" Alice asked, eyebrows raised.
"No! There aren't that many Hufflepuffs that have the same opinion as me that's all," Lily answered in a matter of factly tone of voice, "Belle, Truth, Dare, Double dare, Promise to Repeat"
"Truth."
"Who would you like to take some whip cream, spray it on their neck, and then lick it off?"
"Sirius Black," She answered without hesitation, "Ness, Truth, Dare, Double dare, Promise to Repeat"
"Truth."
"If you would allow any marauder to get in your pants, who would it be?"
"James Potter," She said quickly, "But I wouldn't mind giving him up for Lily here," She winked at her best friend, "Anyway, Alice, truth, dare, Double Dare, Promise to Repeat?"
"Double Dare."
"Go french your boyfriend!"
Alice grinned and left for a minute. She came back about five minutes later with a hickey on her neck. "Now what?"
Ness thought for a moment, "WRITE AN ANONYMOUS LOVE LETTER TO SNAPE!" The girls burst into hysterics.
They soon put an anonymous love letter under a compartment door. It went something like this:
'Dearest Severus,
You won't believe how much I love you. Every day I wish I could just run my hands through your hair, then I come back to reality. I have long blonde hair that reaches down to my shoulders, and am a pure-blood who hates Gryffendor. See if you can find me, darling.
Love,
Your Secret Admirer'
"Blonde hair that's shoulder lengthed," Lily laughed, "He might end up thinking it's Malfoy!"
Alice laughed and turned to Lily, "Lily, truth or dare."
"Dare."
"Go snog James Potter," She raised her eyebrows.
"I DON'T WANT TO!"
"I'll go make sure she does," Ness said.
"BUT I DON'T WANT TO!"
Just then, the compartment door slammed open, and none other than James Potter walked in.
"What's with all this screaming?"
"James," Lily began as she stood up. He ruffled his hair with his hand like he always did, "Come here," he did so. She then grabbed his collar, tiptoed and kissed him right on the lips. He seemed surprised for a moment, but soon kissed her back. His response was so deep, so passionate, she didn't want to let go.
'He uses a lot of tongue,' she thought to herself. 'But just the right amount.' Soon, she felt the
eyes of her friends looking at her, and pushed him off.
"It was a dare, don't think too much of it." She told him, strait forward.
He grinned at her, "If you say so," And he left.
Lily sat down and wiped her mouth with her sleeve, "Here, Lils," Ness said holding a piece of paper in front of Lily, "Promise me you'll keep it, no matter what, okay?"
Lily looked at her for a moment and nodded her head. The other three girls grinned as Ness shoved it into Lily's face.
She opened it and blushed. It was a picture of her grabbing James by the collar and kissing him.
"In memory of your first kiss," Belle said.
"A promise is a promise," Lily said as she put the picture in what was soon to be her scrap book.
The game continued until they made it to Hogwarts.
