AN: This is my first fic so please R&R! I need feedback good or bad!
"Lily, I just want you to know that I'm going to try to act maturely as head boy this years so don't get too stressed." James told Lily when they reached head compartment.
'Did he just say what I think he just said? It must be the apocalypse' Lily thought.
"Oh, ok good" she said smiling glad that he had supposedly changed. Throughout the meeting James contributed many ideas about the year ahead. 'He's obviously put a lot of thought into this' Lily thought as James talked about quidditch.
"And last but not least I think there should be quidditch cheerleaders" Lily didn't like that idea but she didn't worry too much about it because she knew it would never work out.
"Mr. Potter your ideas are well developed except for that last one, I'll bring them up to Professor Dumbeldore. Now there is a head room for the two of you, but you do not have to live in them, it is your choice. The headmaster would like to meet with you in his office after the feast. You may go now." Professor McGonagall said as she left.
"So what did you think of quidditch cheerleaders that one was from Sirius" James said as they walked toward their compartment.
"I don't really like it." Lily said
"I think it would be cool you know give all the prissy girls something to do."
"Prissy?" "Yeah prissy, you know girly girls the ones who like pink and wear ribbons in their hair" James said
"yeah, I know what you mean but 'prissy'? Never say prissy."
"Sorry I've been around Eloise too long." James said.
"Well, I wouldn't do it." Lily said.
"What!" James practically yelled
"I wouldn't want to wear some stupid and very short skirt and yell 'Go team Go' in front of the whole school."
"But you would make a great cheerleader" James said.
"No, Eloise would make a good cheerleader"
"Ellie, no way she's like, my sister"
"Duh, but she's not everyone else's sister"
"That's gross" James said making a face.
"James, get used to it, every guy in school wants your sister and if you learn to deal with that it would be a big step toward maturity."
"Okay." James said sounding quite defeated
"Good" Lily said as she opened the compartment door.
Lily sat next to James and they began to talk about their plans for the upcoming year at Hogwarts. They both surprisingly wanted most of the same things. Nadia and Sirius (or rather Sirius talked to Nadia) talked about quidditch, while Nadia listened intently. Eloise and Remus were in a heated discussion about how pumpkin juice was made, Eloise didn't really think they used real pumpkins while Remus strongly believed that the pumpkins were genuine. Before they knew it the train came to a stop at Hogsmeade. James and Lily made their way to the head carriage while the others shared a carriage. Once they arrived at Hogwarts the sorting began. Once everyone was seated Dumbledore stood and made his usual speech.
"This year there will be a track team at Hogwarts a track has been installed that circles the castle. Conditioning for spring will begin next week. Another new and exciting thing, this year every Friday will be a day in which students are invited to display they're individuality and abandon the school uniform, attire must be appropriate however.
This years' head boy and girl are Lily Evans and James Potter Both from Gryffindor. Enjoy the feast and have a great year." Dumbledore said and sat down. Once the feast was over Lily and James made their way to Dumbledore's office.
"Ah, Mr. and Mrs. Potter so lovely to see you" Dumbledore said
"What?" Lily said
"Its lovely to see you." Dumbledore said.
"No before that." Lily said
"Ah, Mr. Potter and Ms. Evans"
"No you said Mr. and Mrs. Potter" Lily said not only suspicious but a bit angry.
"I didn't know that you were getting married. Congratulations"
"Were not getting married!" Lily said looking at James for support he just shrugged.
"Ms. Evans are you feeling alright?"
"Yes I'm fine are you?" Lily said seriously.
"Please sit." Dumbledore said. They both sat in a pair of brown leather chairs.
"Mr. Potter Professor McGonagall informed me about your idea for is it cheerleaders?"
"Yes, it's mostly a muggle sport but many know of it, I figured it would give the 'girly' girls not 'prissy' but 'girly' girls something to do." James said, making Lily smile at his choice of words.
"Well, that sounds a bit presumptuous but it might work what do you think Ms. Evans?"
"I think it's worth a shot" Lily said surprising James.
"Yes, but who would coach it?" Dumbledore asked.
"Well, I sort of thought that Professor McGonagall might be interested." James said.
"McGonagall!" Lily said laughing.
"I'll ask her, but let me get this straight you want quidditch cheerleaders from each house?" Dumbledore said.
"Well, I think that we could start with Gryffindor and then if any other houses want to they can." James said.
"What about captains?"
"Well, whatever happens depends on what coach McGonagall thinks." James said smiling.
"Coach McGonagall, have you lost your mind?" Lily said and began laughing again.
"No." James said, but looked at Lily as if she had. Just then came the one and only Professor McGonagall walked into Dumbledore's office.
"Headmaster, I was just wondering if you, Oh I wasn't aware that you were still meeting with the heads." She said.
"Professor McGonagall you wouldn't believe James' idea" Lily said STILL laughing.
"What is it?" she asked.
"Well, you know my idea about cheerleaders?" James asked.
"Yes" she said suspiciously.
"Well we need a coach."
"I don't think so." She said.
"Wait, think about it Lily, Nadia, and Eloise" he said shuddering at his sisters name
"Are the prettiest girls in school and the other team will be so busy looking at them that they won't pay any attention to the game and then we win! It's fool proof." He said smiling.
"Yes, but what about the Gryffindor team looking at the cheerleaders as well? Namely you looking at Ms. Evans." She said
"Oh," he said sounding quite crushed.
"Yes, oh" Professor McGonagall said.
"Professor many girls would enjoy it and it might make them more enthusiastic about school work." Lily said astounding James.
"What do you mean make them more enthusiastic about school work?" Professor McGonagall asked genuinely interested
"You could have a policy of no cheers until after homework" Lily said
"But, I have never cheered before."
"My sister was a cheerleader and I used to help her practice, so I know quite a few."
"Very well put an announcement in the common room for Tuesday at 5 I suppose." She said with a sigh of defeat.
"Thanks Professor." Lily said
"Well, now that that is cleared up I would like to inform you of your patrol times. Every night from 7-11 the two of you will patrol the corridors. The heads room is located on the seventh floor, you may use go anytime you like it is just for your usage the password is jellybean. That is all you may go." Dumbledore said.
"Why did you help me on the cheer issue back there?" James asked Lily as they walked toward the common room.
"Well I told Eloise about it and she really wants to do it. And with all of the classes I'm taking this year I'm going to be really busy so I guess it would give me a chance to see my friends." She said
"Well thanks" James said.
"Sure" she said with a smile.
They found Nadia and Eloise on the couch by the fire with Remus and Sirius on the floor talking; Lily joined Eloise and Nadia on the couch while James sat with Sirius and Remus on the floor.
"So, do we get to cheer?" Eloise asked.
"Yes, Ellie now don't bug me anymore" Lily said
"Good. When?"
"Tryouts are Wednesday at five" Lily said.
"Wait, so the two of you are going to cheerlead?" Sirius asked.
"Correction the three of us are going to cheerlead. Right Nadia?" Eloise said looking expectantly to Nadia who hadn't spoken two words since they had gotten to the common room.
"I don't think I will." Nadia said in her usual calm voice.
"Come on Nadia it will be fun. Where's your school spirit?" Eloise said.
But Nadia shook her head.
"Please" Lily said
"I really don't want to" Nadia said.
"Nadia there are basically three types of guys in school: the ones who like brunettes like Eloise, the ones who like redheads like Lily, and the ones who like blondes like you." James said.
"I'm not the only blond in Gryffindor" Nadia said
"No but you're the only gorgeous one" Sirius said attracting stares from everyone.
"I don't know" Nadia said blushing slightly.
"Please it would be so much more fun with you" Lily said.
"And if you don't like you can quit" Eloise said.
"I'll think about it" she said. The six continued to talk about the term ahead and eventually went to bed.
