Chapter One- Meetings at Breakfast
---THREE MONTHS LATER---
James woke up and groaned at the sight of the sun peering through the separation of the curtain. He hated morning now. Walking up meant one more day of nothing but missing Lily for him. He opened his eyes and rubbed them before putting his glasses on and taking a look at the calendar on the wall. Today, December first, marked the ninety-fourth day since their break up. Today also happen to be their second year anniversary, that is, if their relationship would have held on.
He got up and walked over to his dresser, taking out a fresh white button up shirt and a pair of beige kakis for the day. He walking into the bathroom he shared, by force, with his ex. After standing in the shower for about an hour, it was seven thirty. He buttoned the cuffs to his shirt and then made an attempt to tame his hair. At not being able to, to gave up and put his robe on with the Gryffindor emblem on it, then grabbed his books on the was out of his door.
As he made his way out of the Head's portrait hole, he bumped into someone and his books fell, along with the other persons.
"Oh, I am so sorry." Said a female voice as she struggled to separate their stuff. "I guess I wasn't looking where I was going."
"It's fine. No need to apologize." Said James as he help her to her feet, picking her stuff up and handing her stuff to her before getting his own stuff in his arms.
"I'm kind of new here at Hogwarts." She said as she tucked a piece of black hair behind her ear and twirled the blood red between her fingers.
"Then allow me to introduce myself." He said extending a hand to her. "James Christopher Potter, a pleaser to meet you...?" he said trailing off, wondering if he and caught her name or not.
"Oh sorry," she said shaking his hand with a blush and a small smile. "Kiara, Kiara Raleigh Snape."
The smile fell from his face when he heard her last name but then reappeared. "How are you a Snape? I mean what is the relation?"
"I am Severus Snape's twin, fraternal twin."
He was beginning to forget Lily as he looked into her lavender eyes faintly speckled with black. Some of his pride, and large amount of charm was coming back.
"But, love," he began. "How can you be as beautiful as you are and be a Snape?" he said using 'love' as a simple name, not a pet name.
"How flattering, but it will take a whole lot more than your flattering comments to hook me. I bid you a good morning then, James." She said with a small smirk, as she walked away, leaving a very befuddled James to sulk I his thoughts.
As Kiara walked into the Great Hall, she laughed slightly as she thought of what had happened just a bit ago. "Damn, I have spent one day in this place and am already getting hit on, none of the less by my brother's worst enemies." She muttered to herself, "First Sirius Black, then James Potter. Who next?"
"What did I hear about those two Kiara?" asked Severus, beaming when he saw her sister.
"Oh, nothing you need to worry about, Sev." She said and hugged him.
"It's never just nothing with you, or with the two of them in a sentence alone or together." said Severus. "But whatever it is, I trust that you will tell me if it's anything to worry myself over."
"Believe me Sev, if there is anything you need to know, I won't tell you." She said smirking.
"There is no doubt that you are a Snape..." he said and laughed as he shook his head, letting his sister go.
"Damn..." started Sirius as James walked over to the Gryffindor table. "Who is the new Slytherin looker and why the hell is she sitting with Snape? I meant to catch her name, but caught a slap in the face instead," he said rubbing his jaw.
"Don't even try it, and she's sitting with Snape because she is a Snape," stated James and winked at her when she looked from the Slytherin table and she rolled her eyes.
"That one right there to his left is a Snape?" asked Remus.
"Don't get any ideas Remus. You're forgetting you have a girlfriend." Stated Lily as she sat beside him and gave him a kiss.
"Oh, believe me, I won't forget that after the other night," said Remus and then cat the same moment, all the Marauder's were staring at Remus and Lily. Peter's jaw dropped, Sirius was grinning, and James was frowning more that he ever had.
About fifteen minutes later, they were sitting in potions and James' day just couldn't get any better. First, a Slytherin rejected him, a Snape Slytherin but a Slytherin never the less, then he found out that his best friend was sleeping with his ex. Yes, he expected them to be dating but that already. Lily and James didn't get that far until their fifth month together, it was only Remus and Lily's second month.
"Don't worry about it James. There are others out there. Like that new Slytherin over there who happens not to be sitting by anyone." Said Sirius.
"Why are you so hell bent on me getting her?" asked James.
"Because it is only once in a life time that you get a double hitter like this." Sirius stated.
"A double whatter?" asked a confused, no very confused, James.
"A double hitter Prongs. You get a hot girl, and you get the chance to piss Snape off royally, all in the same shot." Sirius said grinning.
Slowly James' frown of confusion turned into a grin of satisfaction and understanding. "Sometimes, Padfoot, I believe you are a pure genius."
"Well, you don't hear that everyday." Stated Sirius.
"No you don't, and thank god." Said Lily.
"Oh shut it Evans, no one asked for an opinion from Remus' "love" kitten." Sirius said. "No offense Remus, of course."
"None taken."
Lily made an 'hmph' sound and opened her book and began to read.
"Oh Lils, don't take it hard, love." Said Remus.
"I'm not. Sirius can be just an ass." She said.
"Thanks babe." Said Sirius, getting a snort from the other three Marauders.
"We all knew that from the start." He said and kissed her softly.
She smiled and then the teacher came in and class started.
"Okay class, copy down the directions and then I will put you into partners for an up coming project." Stated Professor Carroll.
The class copied it down and the pairing began.
"Evans, Mister Parkinson."
"Lupin, Malfoy."
"Black, Mister Snape." Said the professor with a grin.
The pairing went on until it came to the last two.
"Mister Potter and Miss Snape. Now that that is over, I advise you to get along with your partner. This counts for more than haft your grade. Class dismissed.
