Purple hair, crushes and dates
Howdy well I have another chapter for ya. Nothing you recognize is mine.
Hope you like it.
Ladysiri glad you got more bad mental pictures. There is one of Malfoy later on in the story I think you will have to wait for it. Its great.
Keronshara I'm sorry I got the symbol for Ravenclaw wrong when I wrote it I didn't have the books near me but thankyou for correcting me and I am glad you liked the story. "Um hello," one girl said.
Sydney and Lily jumped. "Sorry we didn't know anyone else was in here," Sydney said.
"What's so funny?" the other girl asked.
"We just umm. pulled a good prank. You'll see it in the morning." Lily decided they could tell these two. "My name's Lily by the way."
"Ok, my name's Flair," said the first girl who had spoken. She had blond hair and amber eyes that had a certain spark.
"I'm Stormy," said the second girl. She had brownish ginger hair and eyes that looked like the sea after a storm.
"My name's Sydney."
"Do you know those guys you were sitting with at dinner?" Flair asked.
"Yes four of them are mischievous, troublesome boys and the other is like my bro." Lily said.
"They're all nice but watch them is they're smiling." Sydney added. "I should know, one is my brother."
"Are they the ones you pulled a prank on?" Stormy asked with a grin.
"Of course. You know James and Sirius haven't gotten us back from the Leaky Cauldron." Lily added as an after though.
"We better watch it. Oh, well," Sydney shrugged.
"I'm tired. I'll see you guys in the morning" Lily said. She got her toothbrush and went into the bathroom. When she came out, she said goodnight and got into bed. Stormy and Flair were already ready and Sydney went in after her.
When Lily woke up she took a shower and got dressed. Lily woke up Sydney, Flair and Stormy. "You want to see our plan in action?" She asked. They all jumped up and got dressed. The girls grabbed a camera and hurried to the common room.
Around 7:00 the four troublemakers stumbled down the stairs. Chad had come down earlier so he had not seen their hair. Lily grabbed a camera and started taking pictures. The boys were too tired to realize what she was doing. She ran her camera back up to her dorm. When she came back down everyone headed to breakfast. On the way people were whispering behind them and pointing. Sydney and Lily were laughing while Flair and Stormy were surprised. When they finally made it to the Great Hall and walked in, it became quiet. Then the first years took a seat and the whispering started. Everyone loaded his or her plates. As Remus reached for the syrup he noticed Sirius' hair and did a double take. It was bright purple with golden tips and puffed out like an Afro. He turned to look at James and found his was neon blue with silver streaks. Quickly he grabbed a cup to see his reflection but it was normal, he sighed. Then he looked at Lily and Sydney, who smiled and waved, he laughed and kept eating. Around that time hundreds of owls flew in going to their owners. Two owls came over to Sydney and Lily, each were given a bouquet of flowers. They looked around for who sent them. They couldn't figure out who it was. They took a big whiff of the smell and smiled. About that time Professor McGonagall came by with schedules.
"Good morning ladies, here are your schedules." Lily and Sydney started to giggle. McGonagall gave them a quizzical look.
"Look, Lily, we have potions first with Slytherin. You'll see your friend there," Sirius teased. Lily was giggling at first then realized what she was doing and tried to stop.
"That's gross Sirius. Why can't I stop giggling?" she realized what she was doing and saw James grin. "James Potter what did you do to me? You are making me act like an IDIOTIC, BLOND, AMERICAN VALLEY GIRL!" Sydney realized she was giggling also.
"James I have three words for you. RUN FAST NOW. Oh and Sirius you should follow him." They were the center of attention. The whole Great Hall was watching. It was hilarious watching two girls furious and not be able to stop laughing.
As James and Sirius were running out of the Great Hall Lily yelled, "Oh by the way I love your hair!" James and Sirius stopped, looked at each other and started to laugh. They realized what happened and turned to Lily and Sydney.
"LILY MARIE EVANS"
"SYDNEY CAMIEL POTTER"
"You did what to my hair?"
The whole hall erupted into laughter.
"James, blue is definitely your color," Lily managed.
"Sirius, you should stay with purple. It works," Sydney added
"You dyed my hair?!" James and Sirius yelled. Lily and Sydney stood and took bows while the whole school clapped.
"It's not funny," James grumbled.
"You should have seen your faces and hair. Oh, it is so funny." Lily corrected him
Sirius and James looked over at Remus and started laughing.
"What?" Remus asked.
"Your hair looks like my grandma's. It's all silver and curly" Sirius wheezed.
"WHAT!?" Remus shouted.
"Actually, its quite stunning Remi. If I do say so myself." Sydney teased.
Remus grabbed his plate turned it upside down "My hair is brown like always. What are you talking about?" This made people laugh even harder.
Dumbledore finally stood up not laughing but smiling. "I would like to thank Mr. Potter, Mr. Black, Mr. Lupin, Miss. Evans, and Miss. Potter for this morning's entertainment." All five stood up and took a bow. "But lessons must start in ten minutes." Everyone jumped up not realizing how late it was and rushed to classes.
On the way Chad said something that made everyone think. "You know James, you, Sirius, Remus and Peter should come up with a nickname. You know like Lily and Sydney being the delightful due-o."
"You know you're right." Sirius agreed "We could be called the saints because were perfect angles." Everyone started laughing.
"I hope you weren't being serious," Stormy said. "I've only know you since last night and I know you aren't angles or saints."
"I'm hurt," James said. "You know I like the saints idea but Marauders would be better. I mean we sacrifice ourselves to make other peoples' days funnier."
"You make everyone's but the person you prank day better" Lily pointed out.
"So Marauders it is," Remus agreed.
They finally made it to potions and sat down. Lily saw Snape coming her way and pulled James into the seat next to her, Sydney was already on the other side. Snape veered away.
"Lily I know you want me but please try to restrain yourself. All my admirers might get mad," James teased.
"I don't know James I mean you're so fine and sexy and irresistible I can't help but touch you." She proved her point by running a finger down his arse.
Stormy piped in at this moment. "Lily, what are you doing? He's mine. I won him fair and square last night in Rock, Paper, Scissors." James was puzzled.
"Oh right I forgot," Lily replied.
"No, Stormy, he's mine. Remember I won him from you in a coin toss." Flair added.
"Oh yeah, sorry." Stormy repeated.
"Then, Flair I paid you 50 cents for him," Carolina said.
"And I traded you my blue shirt for him," Eve put in.
"Remember I won him in a bet from you," Lydia said.
"Don't forget that switch we made," Dawn piped up. By this time all friends were laughing. James still hadn't caught on.
"Dawn remember you then gave him back to me. So he's rightfully mine," Lily finished.
"Oh yeah," a couple of the girls uttered. Then they looked at James and fell out of their seats because they were laughing so hard. He had the most perplexed, excited, confused face you could have. He was happy girls were fighting over him but confused that they would trade or bet over who could have him and even more confused that Lily would give him away.
"You girls are good." Sirius said. "I've never seen him look like that."
"You came close this morning," Stormy added. About this time the professor walked in.
"Please take a seat and let's begin." The group tried to calm down but every time they looked at James they started laughing again.
"My name's professor Lee. This year we will be learning about." that's all they understood the rest slurred into one long unintelligible word. "And that's what you do with wolfs spleen. I hope you got that all down next class you will have a quiz. You may leave."
You heard a lot of "what" "huh?" "Could you understand her?"
The Gryffindor group got up and walked out. As Lily and Sydney walked by a group of Slytherin boys Snape and Malfoy stopped them. "We were wondering if you would like to accompany us on a moonlit walk tonight?" Snape asked.
"I'm sorry, you know the rules." Sydney made up.
"Rules?" Malfoy asked.
"All students must be in their common rooms by 7 or they must have a teachers permission to be out." Lily continued.
"Oh maybe some other time," Malfoy said. Lily and Sydney walked off.
Next Gryffindors had Charms with Ravenclaw. Lily was excited she would see Tim.
"Hey," Lily said as soon as she walked in the Charms classroom. Then she went to sit by Tim.
"Hey. How do you like school so far?" he asked.
"It's good, you?"
"It's so much better than I dreamed of. Why are you giggling?"
"The Marauders played a prank on me this morning."
"Marauders?"
"Yeah, James and his group of friends."
"Oh, by the way who sent you those flowers?"
"That was them. There was something on them that makes me and Sydney laugh."
"I was umm wondering if maybe you would sometime like to maybe."
"Just say what you're going to say."
"wouldyouliketogooutwithme?"
"Huh? Come again."
"I was wondering if you would like to go out with me."
"Yes"
"Really?"
"Of course" Lily and Tim kept talking. Little did they know a certain blond brat was standing behind them, plotting her revenge on Lily. If she couldn't have James, Tim was just as good. Right?
After class was over Lily was talking to Sydney. "Guess what?" Lily said.
"The moon is made of stinky cheese," Sirius butted in.
"No."
"Snape washed his hair," Remus laughed.
"No."
"My hair is not blue anymore," James guessed.
"No."
"It's raining cats and dogs?" Chad asked.
"No."
All the girls looked at Lily's face and said at once, "Tim asked you out."
"Was I being that obvious?" Lily asked. Lily and Sydney felt a wave of jealousy from all the Marauders and James stomped off muttering about prats and gits.
"I'm happy for you," Remus said.
"If he tries anything, one word and he's dead." Sirius told her.
"Thanks" Lily replied. "Why did James leave?"
"He forgot something in the common room," Sirius covered.
"Ok. Let's go to lunch." Lily smiled. She practically floated to lunch but kept thinking about James storming off.
The rest of the day was rather uneventful, or as uneventful a day at Hogwarts with the Marauders around could be. James finally talked to Lily again, they found the poltergeist was very annoying and not to get on the bad side of the caretaker, Ms. Klein.
That night in the common room the Marauders, delightful due-o, Chad and the other first year girls sat in a circle talking about their day.
"Quiet everyone" Sirius said. "I want to take a poll. Who liked their first day?" Everyone raised his or her hand. "Ok its unanimous. Hogwarts rocks!"
"Sirius said he likes school? I'm shocked." Lily pretended to faint.
"Shut up fire," Sirius retorted.
"Stuff it not so," Lily replied.
"What?" they said at the same time. Everyone laughed.
"Where did you to come up with those names?" Flair asked.
"Her hair looks likes its on fire," Sirius explained.
"Not so, as in not so serious," Lily also explained. "And you came up with fire 'cause you know I'm hot."
"Won't argue with that," they heard someone yell form the other side of the room. Everyone burst out laughing. The voice wasn't even talking to them.
"So Lily you gonna get it on with Snape?" Sirius asked wiggling his eyebrows.
"Please tell me you are joking. That's got to be on of the grosser things I have ever heard. Never use Snape and get it on in the same sentence. I would choose you over him" Lily replied.
"That's good," Sirius said and pretended to wipe his brow. "Wait a minute. You said you would choose me over Snape like I was a last resort."
"So you would be," Lily smiled.
"I'm insulted. I think I'm going to cry." He covered his eyes.
"Oh come here poor baby." Stormy joked. "Did big, bad, Lily make you cry?" Sirius shook his head yes and crawled over to her and put his head on top of her stomach because she was lying down. She patted his back. "Poor thing." She said. Everyone was laughing at his and her antics.
"By the way, when's our hair going to change back to normal?" Remus asked.
"Your hair? It will changed back after 48 washes." Sydney said.
"WHAT!?" James yelled. " I thought this was a charm."
"Well the charm makes you not able to see you hair. The rest is hair dye," Lily explained.
"We'll see you in the morning." Sydney and Lily jumped up before the guys could catch them and ran to their dorm. The rest of the girls followed.
"Lily when will the dye really come out?" Eve asked.
"In a week," Lily answered. All the girls were rolling their eyes or on the floor laughing.
"You know they are going to spend the next day or so constantly washing their hair," Lydia pointed out.
"They'll even probably count every time they wash their hair to make sure." Flair added.
"The best part is the dye won't fade. It will just be there one minute and gone the next," Sydney explained.
"You two are evil," Carolina said
"No, we aren't evil. We are the delightful due-o." Lily and Sydney took a bow.
"And that's why we're so much fun to be around," Lily explained.
"Can't deny that, except that you also always hang around with the three cutest boys in the year. So if I didn't like you I would try to anyways," Lydia pointed out.
"So Sydney who do you like? We all know Lily likes Tim." Dawn asked. They were in Lily and Sydney's dorm.
"Chad" Sydney blushed. "He's so sweet."
"Who do you all like?" Lily asked not bothering to beat around the bush.
One by one they went in a circle.
"Sirius," Stormy said defiantly.
"Remus," Flair giggled.
"Chris, he's in Ravenclaw." Lydia explained.
"Josh, he's Chris' twin." Carolina said
"Getting the twin thing on?" Stormy joked.
"Mike, he's our bro's friend," Eve responded.
"Mark, also our bro's friend." Dawn also explained.
"Going for older men?" Lily asked.
"Of course. I mean the ones our age are so juvenile." Eve said with a straight face but then everyone laughed. They stayed up talking ate into the night getting to know each other better. When they were done they were to tired to move to their own beds so fell asleep on the two they had pushed together.
In the morning the girls were woken up by cold water being poured on their heads. They jumped up.
"JAMES POTTER I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!" was heard all through the Gryffindor tower. People stuck heads out of doors to watch. Lily had jumped up, grabbed her wand, and started chasing James. He didn't think she knew any spells but was soon proved wrong.
Lily started yelling curses, hexes and jinxes. James finally got to the point where he couldn't move. Everyone was in shock. They were surprised a first year that only had one day of lessons could perform any spells. Lily finally clamed down. When she looked at James she freaked out.
"Oh my god! What happened?" She didn't remember anything.
"Uh, Lily please don't hurt me," Sirius said, "but you did that to him."
"What?" she was surprised then thought back. "I did, didn't I." She walked over to James "I am sorry. Let me fix you." She said the counter curses to everything. He finally recovered.
"Oh my god. Lily you're brilliant. Think of what we could do to Snape." James said.
"You aren't mad?" Lily asked.
"No way. But watch your temper. I'm your friend, I hope, and look what you did to me. Think what you could do to a slimy git like Snape." James grinned.
"Yes, you are my friend. At least I hope you are after what I just did to you." Lily answered his question.
Sirius walked up, "Where did you learn those? Some of those aren't in the charms book."
"I made up a few by mixing words out of the charms."
"You have got to teach us." James and Sirius piped in.
"I'm going to go get ready for breakfast. See you in a few." Lily ran to her room. She felt all eyes on her back.
Ladysiri glad you got more bad mental pictures. There is one of Malfoy later on in the story I think you will have to wait for it. Its great.
Keronshara I'm sorry I got the symbol for Ravenclaw wrong when I wrote it I didn't have the books near me but thankyou for correcting me and I am glad you liked the story. "Um hello," one girl said.

Lily started yelling curses, hexes and jinxes. James finally got to the point where he couldn't move. Everyone was in shock. They were surprised a first year that only had one day of lessons could perform any spells. Lily finally clamed down. When she looked at James she freaked out.
"Oh my god! What happened?" She didn't remember anything.
"Uh, Lily please don't hurt me," Sirius said, "but you did that to him."
"What?" she was surprised then thought back. "I did, didn't I." She walked over to James "I am sorry. Let me fix you." She said the counter curses to everything. He finally recovered.
"Oh my god. Lily you're brilliant. Think of what we could do to Snape." James said.
"You aren't mad?" Lily asked.
"No way. But watch your temper. I'm your friend, I hope, and look what you did to me. Think what you could do to a slimy git like Snape." James grinned.
"Yes, you are my friend. At least I hope you are after what I just did to you." Lily answered his question.
Sirius walked up, "Where did you learn those? Some of those aren't in the charms book."
"I made up a few by mixing words out of the charms."
"You have got to teach us." James and Sirius piped in.
"I'm going to go get ready for breakfast. See you in a few." Lily ran to her room. She felt all eyes on her back.
