Chapter Two

A/N: Okay, I don't wanna waste any time, so fast forward to the first day of school.

"Tess, so how was your summer?" Ashley asked mischievously.

"It was great," Tessa mumbled, turning a bright shade of red.

"Yeah, I bet it was." Lily said.

At the other end of the table sat James, Sirius and Remus (A/N: I really don't like Peter, so I just got rid of him...hehe)

"So, what happened with you and Lily?" asked Sirius.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, she's kinda been ignoring you", said Remus.

"Yeah" Sirius said in agreement.

James sighed. "Ok, so I ask her out and she gives me that stupid excuse again."

"I'm sorry. I want to, but I just can't" Sirius and Remus recited together.

When James left to go to the bathroom, Sirius whispered, "Moony, we have to get those two together this year."

"Yeah, I know what you mean, but Lily doesn't seem to want to."

"Hmm..."

After the sorting and dinner, Dumbledore led Lily and James up to their dormitory.

"Ms. Evans, Mr. Potter, this", he said, motioning towards a corridor marked Head Boy and Girl, "will be your living quarters. It is not mandatory you live here and you may visit the Gryffindor common tower whenever you wish."

They stepped inside, revealing a roomy common area with comfy couches, a pool table, and a kitchen-like area.

"Wow", Lily whispered.

"Ms. Evans, your room will be up those stairs, to the left, and Mr. Potter you will be tothe right. I'll let you two get settled." And with that, Dumbledore left.

James looked over at Lily. She was like a little kid, visiting Zonko's for the first time. (A/N: like a little kid in a candy store)

"So, what do you wanna do?" He asked awkwardly.

"I'm really tired. I think I'm just gonna go to bed."

"Yeah, okay. Good night."

After she went up to her room, James leaned back on the couch and sighed. He reached in his pocket and pulled out the Marauder's Map. It showed Sirius and Remus waiting outside his room. He lazily got up and let them in.

"Wow James, this is awesome." Sirius remarked. He put down a big box that he had levitated. Inside were bottles and bottles.

"What's all that?"

"Most of its Butterbeer we got from the house-elves. But these" Remus said, motioning towards the blue bottles, "are a bit stronger."

"Gimme one of those blue ones." Remus tossed a bottle to James. He sank into the couch, drinking it quickly.

Sirius glanced at Remus worriedly, who just shrugged his shoulders and joined James.

After a few hours, the three of them were pretty drunk, and shooting pool. Around 2AM, they fell asleep on the floor.

Lily leaned back on her bedpost, flipping through a photo album of when her parents were sill together. They looked so happy. But underneath it all, their relationship was horrible. Lily shuddered, just thinking about it.

The next morning, the sunlight coming in through the windows cause James to wake up. When he tried to stand up, he let out a loud groan. His head hurt so badly and he was dizzy. Before he knew it, he was on the floor again, his eyes shut.

"What the..." Lily said out loud, while brushing her hair. She made her way downstairs only to find three boys sprawled out on the floor, asleep.

"James? Sirius? Remus? You guys, wake up. Its 7:30."

Sirius groaned. He got up, steadying himself against the wall. Slowly, James and Remus got up too and made their way to the couch. They held their heads, while moaning.

Lily walked over to where they were asleep and picked up several bottles. "Were you guys drinking?"

Slowly James nodded, but groaned again. Even moving his head slightly was making it hurt more.

"You guys are idiots."

"Yeah, yeah we know. Now do something about my hangover," begged Sirius.

Lily rolled her eyes, and flicked her wand, muttering a few incoherent words under her breath. Suddenly, they all looked wide-awake.

"Thanks Evans." James said. Sirius and Remus left the dormitory, making their way back to Gryffindor tower to get dressed.

"Boys", she muttered and headed down to breakfast.

A/N: I know, I know this chapter is short. Bear with me; the next chapter will be more interesting. Reviews are greatly appreciated!!
