(A/N: Sorry for the wait, but I had to start over again because I didn't 'SAVE'. Here's my second chapter, thank you so much for your reviews, I'd like to say my thanks:
Disclaimer: You know that I so didn't make up the Harry Potter characters. Though characters you're not familiar with are my characters (unless you forgot). And the plot, you could say, is sort of mine (not that I intended to copy others.)
Christy Corr: Thank you for volunteering to format this chapter and all, but I've been waiting for you for two whole days so you can go MSN, but I couldn't wait any longer, so here's chapter 2.
Prankster_kid039: Thank you for the motivation =)
Mary: *smiles* I think you've got great ideas and I like them too, don't worry, when I use some of your ideas, I'll make sure you get credit
kim the writer: LOL, thx for your opinion
DarkestMaeve: I'm glad you enjoyed the story, and thx for your advice
You think I could get more reviews? I'm not sure this story is going to be good…well anyway her I go with the second chapter, hope you guys like it.
Reminder: 4got to tell you this, to be honest, I'm not all that into swearing and stuff, it's just to put some reality, like seriously, there is barely any bad guy/girl who doesn't swear at all, but then again, I don't want to overdo it. Well then, I could rate it PG-13 now, even though not everyone is at least 13 *eyes people*. I do apologize for the language.
Second, I'm not trying to be funny, I just put it in the 'humour' section, 'cause it'll give you a laugh on how I write stuff: lame, weird, totally-don't-make-sense type o' thing.
I apologize for the delay, but I didn't feel like writing for two days, and then this chapter took me to do for like a day and a half.
ENJOY!!!)
Enfin, je commence…

Seems Like Forever by sUsiE-cLoVer
Last time on 'Seems Like Forever'
'Laugh while you still can, Potter. I'll get you back, James, don't know what it is now, but I'll find a way. This may be my life...but nobody said I can't change it' thought Lily darkly.
Chapter 2: Be careful what you wish for…
"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!" The alarm went off. Lily changed the sound for her alarm. She thought it would be a new change, you know, it just made a new sound that could wake her up better; and it certainly did. It was rather annoying, because it just got louder and louder. Lily turned her alarm off and sat up. She raised her hands in the air for her last yawn.
"Yawww…" yawned Lily. Then something hit her.
"Wiippi!" shouted Lily wondering what day it was. She searched her calendar, totally excited (hoping that it's Friday); because of all the pressure and that the timing seemed so long. It's about time that the week finished. Her green eyes searched around…
"Yippy, it's, it's…" then her eyes full of hope, faltered, "…ONLY Tuesday!" Lily cried softly then bawled like a hysterical banshee.
While at the room on the opposite side of Lily's (James' bedroom), what you could hear was:
"Nooooooooooooooooo, n-n-nooooooooo, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
James woke up hearing that horrible screeching nails-on-a-chalkboard noise, and almost got a concussion.
"What the hell?!" James woke up. He wore his glasses, trying to get up, but then realized there was a hand on his bare chest.
"Jamesie, what is that noise?" said Beverly sleepily. "Can you dispose that lousy alarm clock for future times?" said Beverly seductively then grabbed James and started kissing him. James reluctantly pulled away and got up to put on his boxers.
"Get up Bev, breakfast is going to start…" yawned James.
"Oh come on, James, just a few more minutes?" asked Beverly seductively 'but in an annoying tone' thought James. 'She's got her uses though,' James smirked. Of course he loved her, but not in an I'll-do-anything-for-you-and-I'll-even-die-for-you kind of love.
"Just get ready, be right back, I'm gonna go check up on Lily first,"
"Why!?" shouted Beverly disgusted grabbing her bathrobe.
"Seriously Beverly, it's not what you think," said James laughing at what she was probably thinking.
"Sorry, Jay, I wasn't thinking properly. But you know, I thought you were desperate enough to go get in on with her, I mean, like, there aren't a lot of 7th-year-virgins left in Gryffindor, or even in the other houses…I think there's like four left!" laughed Beverly.
"It wasn't the alarm, my dear Beverly, it was Lily, geez her cries are crazy!" whispered James then said "Don't worry Bev, I'm not that desperate," while wrapping his arm around Beverly (with the robe on) and left.
*
Lily controlled herself, she totally forgot about James. He might've heard her. But then again, she was glad to wake him up from whatever situation he was in. She heard footsteps coming to her room. Then the door opened.
"Lily, are you okay?"
"Oh! You mean from yesterday? I'm surprised James Potter, that you give any condolences after what you have purposely done," said Lily sarcastically then turned to look at James a little more closely. She took in what she saw, looking up and down, with his boxers, even messier hair, and a defined chest… 'Wow…if only he got another personality he would be perfect, but nobody is. LILY! Ewww, what are you thinking? You should be ashamed at looking at Potter like that! He's nothing but a greedy slimy womanizer.' Screamed Lily in her thoughts. James noticed she was somewhat observing him and then smirked.
"Lily, don't think you're going to ever get this," said James pointing at his chest.
"Don't worry, I have NO intentions whatsoever, as if I'd want to ever kiss you…" said Lily confidently.
"Yeah sure, just keep telling yourself that. I'm suppose to say that," said James like she was one crazy person to ever think that. Suddenly Beverly came in.
"Geez Lily, why the hell did you have to scream so loud? Like, what is your problem not that you don't?"
"I am so glad you asked," said Lily sarcastically (A/N: Sarcasm has a huge role in this story if you have noticed). 'What am I going to do, I can't tell her I was screaming because I thought today was Tuesday, they'd think I'm a freak, there's something new…gotta make something up—quick!' screamed her head.
"I, well, you see—"
"While we're still young, Evans!" said Beverly impatiently. 'Think quick!'
"Because I saw you guys doing it by accident when I wanted to go get something in your room, James…" said Lily grossed out.
"Uh-huh," laughed Beverly in a fake tone.
"Oh wow, Jamesie, I love this room…next time it will be here, ok?" said Beverly in an annoying tone then looked at Lily expectantly. Lily, who didn't catch what she just said, said, "What?"
"Ew, ew, ew, ew, EWWWW!!!!" said Lily as if it was the most horrible disgusting thing she ever heard. "What do you expect me to say? Oh, it my honour for you to ever suggest that, of course, of course, you may!" said Lily (sarcastically).
"Well, duh!" said Beverly like it would be the most obvious thing in the world.
"You guys are sick do you know that!? I really have no clue how your mind works, Harrington! (Beverly's last name), and get your slimy hands off my armoire, slut!" shouted Lily angrily and impatiently.
"Bitch." Said Beverly and left to get ready for breakfast. James just stood gaping there like a brainless dummy.
"Hell-O!" waving her hand in front of James' face. "Lea-ve!" and stepped on his foot.
"What is your problem?" shouted James jumping up and down, "You, now will you go out, or watch me change?" said Lily ashamed of what she just said. At least she doesn't have to worry about it. James turned white really terrified and stopped hopping to rush out the door.
"The one time when I actually wake up early enough to take a shower so I can finally get rid of the grease lying on my hair. James had to come waltzing in my room to ask me if I was ok? Arggghh!!!" Lily soon got ready to meet Lucy and Amber in the common room.
"Good Morningggggggg!" sang Amber.
"I wish I could say the same thing," moaned Lily.
"What's wrong, care to tell us about it?" asked Lucy. Lily nodded and told them both about what happened. Lucy felt sorry for her but Amber was another story.
"That was a bad morning!?" shrieked Amber.
"Uh, ya!!" shouted Lucy and Lily like it was obvious.
"Are you kidding me? I would've died to just experience what you did!" said Amber enviously. Lily raised an eyebrow. "I mean James, wearing nothing but his boxers! You are so lucky!" screamed Amber.
"Gee Amber, thanks for being supportive!" said Lily sarcastically.
"Sorry, but really!"
"Uh huh! Well you leave me no choice but to tell you this," sighed Lily, "You see honey, he was there with Beverly, and I just woke them up from their party festival," said Lily with her fingers showing signs of quoting and unquoting. Amber quieted. She once dated James and well 'did it' with him on their first date and dumped her the next day.
"Ok so…fresh me up on our last class Luce. I know we have Herbology, Potions, then Arithmancy"
"Um, I think it's Muggle Studies." Lily was also excellent in Muggle Studies, being Muggleborn herself with a Muggle family and all.
"Oh cool, I wonder what we're gonna do? Maybe we'll learn how to sew, cook, and knit!" said Lily excitedly.
"Uh, Lil, that's not a good thing." Said Amber and Lucy together seriously.
"Of course it is! I mean, it's so impressive and excit—
"It's exciting to see James in an apron with oven-mitts!" laughed Amber and Lucy.
"Hardy-har-har, I share your joy." Said Lily sarcastically again (A/N: She's got some attitude, huh?).
"Oh, c'mon, it is just a little funny!" said Lucy.
"Ya, I guess," Lily laughed. "Hey Amber, do you still have your 'What If' ball from Zonko's?"
"I always carry it Lily dear." Said Amber cluelessly handing Lily the clear transparent crystal ball. "What for?"
"You'll see…" said Lily. Then Lily put the ball in plane mode (flat-screen).
"Okay, what if James started cooking and did a horrible job at it." The screen turned white and sparkles flew over, showing James, with an apron, frying something on a cooking-pan and taking out another pan filled with burnt cookies from the oven and dropping them on the floor on his bare foot. It then looked like James was cursing, but they couldn't hear anything.
"Gosh Amber, maybe you should get the sound version—" started Lucy but was interrupted by the burst of laughter from Lily. Lily was holding her stomach and her hair was flopping in front and in back of her face.
"See Lil, that's just what you need, a good laugh like that!" exclaimed Lucy.
"Quiet! Both of you!" shushed Amber. There was a girl coming out of a doorway, but there was a flash and the motion picture disappeared. Lily knocked it off of Amber's grasp by accident. Then someone who was passing by accidentally knocked Lily spilling chocolate milk all over her uniform. Lily tried to brush off some milk off.
"Is anybody not going to knock something on me?!" said Lily irritated. And then, not noticing that the person responsible was still there.
"I am so sorry, um Miss…" said a guy putting out his hand. Lily just gaped at him, she knew who he was, well, she forgot.
"Oh, uh—Lily E-Evans, it's totally okay though, I didn't like the robes anyway…" laughing nervously. And took his hand to shake it.
"I'm Amos Diggory. Wait, I know you, you're in my Arithmancy class aren't you"
"Ya." Said Lily shyly.
"Hey, aren't you that guy that stole James' date from last year's Halloween Ball and got into a big fight over him? Like aren't you that guy who James totally hates, loathes, despi—" asked Amber knowing rather a lot about James, (especially if you got the position of VP for James' fan club).
"Amber, I think he gets what you're trying to say!" said Lily giving her the signal to shut up.
Amos laughed lightly. "I wouldn't steal any girl from any guy intentionally. I ask girls out, and what I expect for answer is either a 'yes' or a 'no'."
"Sorry for interrupting your little convo, Ame, but we're running late," said Bernie Macmillan.
"Sorry Lily, but I do have to go, it was nice talking to you though, and sorry again for the spill," said Amos walking out of the Great Hall. And that's when Lily fell in love with Amos Diggory. Lily was dreaming about him. Like what it would be like to sit in a balcony watching the moon and the stars with Amos arms around her waist…
"Li-ly!" whined Lucy and Amber.
"What?!" said Lily angry for interrupting her daydream.
"'I didn't like the robes anyway?' What's up with that? That was so lame. They are our uniform, nobody likes them, except the guys who look under girls' skirts and did you know there was someone who was going to walk in!" said Lucy.
"What?" said Lily confused.
"In the 'What If' crystal ball. There was someone who was going to walk in, We wanted to know who it was!" said Lucy.
"Well, sorry" said Lily sounding the least bit sorry.
"Imagine if that happened though, it would be so funny!" laughed Lucy.
"Yeah! But nobody said it couldn't. Like ya, it's a 'What If' ball, but if you ask the right questions, it just might happen. Not all of them do come true, 'cause you're asking what if but if you ask a certain question that is somehow interrelated with fate's plan, then it'll obviously come true. I had that happen to me a couple of times."
"Uh huh," replied Lily not caring.
Lucy was just looking around the Great Hall and spotted Snape. He was looking at their direction. Even when Lucy was glaring at him back, he didn't seem to notice. Snape just sat there scooping his porridge with his spoon that kept missing his mouth. Lucy tried to match at what or whom Snape was staring at. Lucy then found the answer to that, it was Lily! Lucy tapped Amber's shoulder and showed her what she was talking about. Amber grinned.
"Lily, maybe we should check how would you and your secret admirer would be like in the future, married!" exclaimed Amber. Lucy smirked.
"Oh! Stop it Amber, Amos would never have a crush on me." Said Lily.
"Whoa, wait a minute, you like Amos don't you?" asked Lucy. Lily blushed.
"You're right though, Lil, he would never have a crush on you in the state you're in, like look at you—," Lily frowned, "Look at your hair, it's all greasy and bushy with major splits on the end, like your hair totally screams 'help, help me, save me from her' and those nails, they need a major manicure, don't BITE your nails! It's all so uneven, ahhhhhh! Fashion crisis! And you wear overalls! Ewwww, like, overalls! Wear caprice and tank tops! And your face—"
"Amber! Stop!" shouted Lucy.
Though Amber continued not hearing what Lucy just said, "it's all pimply. You have acne issues girl! And those eyebrows, they need—"
"Am-ber!" shouted Lucy and Lily loud enough so she could stop.
"Thanks Amber, that makes me feel so much better! Now I know how you really feel about me," said Lily sarcastically.
"Whoops…"
"Anyway, back to the subject," continued Lucy.
"What subject?" asked Lily curiously.
"We were saying how you and your secret admirer would be like as couple, and then a 'married' couple…"
"If you're going to say James Potter, you can flush that thing down the toilet because James and I will never, ever be a couple and do couple stuff like, kissing and making out," said Lily as she took a moment to shiver, "let alone getting married!"
"Would you just be quiet, and let us do the talking?!" asked Lucy impatiently.
"Like ya, ewwww, I mean-you with my James, ugh! I mean look at your eyebrows—" Lily rolled her eyes.
"Hello!" waved Lucy impatiently.
"Ya, well, anyway, we were talking about you and—" Amber waved her hand over the screen "Sevy Snape.."
"Put that away now! That is so not funny! I rather marry James Potter!" said Lily quite taken aback.
"Be careful what you wish for…" said Lucy.
"Puh-lease, you know perfectly well that won't happen." Lily pronounced.
"I'm just saying," continued Lucy.
"Well don't," said Lily firmly.
"Anyway…we better go to class," said Lucy. All three girls got up from their chair.
"Um, Lil, what about your robes, I mean if you think I'm going to be walking with someone who has dried chocolate milk on their robes, then you're wrong."
"Fine. Let's go Luce," said Lily pulling Lucy with her.
"Hey! I meant the other way around!" said Amber. Lily groaned and pointed to her robe.
"Lavio!" and the stains disappeared.
"See, that's all you need to do…" continued Amber.
"You know, sometimes I wonder why you weren't sorted to Slytherin…I mean, hello, I'm your fellow cousin, and here I am getting unfellowy comebacks from my own cousin." Said Lily.
"Ya, ya, ya," said Amber not listening to a word Lily was saying. (She was too busy thinking about James).
"Hey Amber, Why aren't you part of Amos' fan club? He is so much better! Like he's not a date-and-dumper kind of person. Like James totally hurt you and your still hanging out with him, and being VP for his fan club?" asked Lily.
"Why aren't you in Amos' fan club?!" snapped Amber rather angrily for mentioning that against James like that…it was considered blasphemy *gasps*. Lily blushed.
After, Lily and Lucy went to their first three classes. As usual, Lily earned some points for her classes, much to James' disappoint.

After Lily finished her first three periods, she was walking to her last class, Muggle Studies.
"I'm so excited!" cried Lily.
"Me too…" said Lucy sounding the least bit excited.
"Here we are…" The students from Gryffindor and Ravenclaw entered the Muggle Studies classroom.
"Oh, good afternoon, class!" greeted Professor Lovegood. "I have a surprise for you all…"Professor Lovegood smiled; she was Lily's favourite teacher. But little did the class expect what their surprise was.
