Chapter One
Great. Another Year at Hogwarts. The good news? I get to see my two best friends. The bad news? I get to see the one person who is out to make my life a living hell. James Potter. He is out to get me, thinking he is all high and mighty. Damn him.
These were Lily Evans thoughts as she stepped onto Platform 9 3/4 at 10:30 on September 1st. She was dreading going back to school, just because of Potter and his three little friends, Black, Lupin, and Pettigrew. Although her two best friends, Mercy Lewis and Jackie Kearney were always by her side, Potter still asked her out every day. She was sick of him and the little pranks he played on her. And fact, because she was now Head Girl, she wasn't going to take any more of his crap. She was going to put him in his place this year.
Lily Evans was no average girl. She was a witch, and was in her seventh and final year at Hogwarts. She was tired of being known as the good girl, so she decided to change her image. Instead of wearing her usual sweatpants and t-shirt, she had put on a short skirt with an extremely tight top. Her hair was no longer in a ponytail. Instead, it was down and curled. Lily also had put on makeup. Not a lot, but she had put on some lip-gloss and mascara. She looked cool. In fact she looked awesome. Guys' heads were turning her direction, everywhere she went. Lily was proud, and excited. She was going to get a boyfriend this year, finally.
Lily was snapped out of her thoughts by her best friend, Mercy Lewis. Mercy screamed and started running towards Lily. She tackled her, and they landed on the ground with a thud, hugging. Eventually, Mercy stood up, letting Lily get a good look at one of her best friends.
Mercy was about 5'3", and the shortest of her friends. She had chestnut brown hair that came down to her shoulders. Mercy was known as the bad girl of Hogwarts. She played pranks on tons of people. She was also as bad as James and Sirius and flirted and dated about half the guys. She was a Chaser for the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, and was really good. She was athletic, but you couldn't tell by looking at her. Mercy was known as the girl who got all the guys.
Today Mercy was wearing a short tan skirt with a green halter-top. She was extremely tan from summer, and her blue eyes were as bright as ever. She had on green flip-flops, and had a green headband in, holding her hair back. Mercy had three piercings on each ear as well as her bellybutton pierced. As usual, she looked spectacular, making Lily envy her even more.
"Have you seen Jackie yet?" Mercy asked impatiently. "I swear that girl was born late. She is never on time."
Lily laughed. "Chill out. Be patient. Did you already get a compartment?"
Mercy nodded. "Of course. Last one, right next to the Marauders."
Lily groaned. "Aw, come on. Why did you have to do that? I mean. Can't we go one train ride without them around? They are so arrogant."
"But sexy." A deep voice said behind her. Lily sighed and turned around.
"What do you want Potter?" She snapped. She couldn't believe what she saw when she turned around. The boys had "grown up", as one would say. They were hot last year, of course, but this year, all of them except Peter were drop dead gorgeous. Unfortunately, Peter was still short and fat and full of pimples.
James had grown about three inches, and stood at 6'1". He had blue eyes, and those glasses that Lily hated. He now had muscles, probably from training all summer for Quidditch. His untidy black hair looked even untidier, and he was running his hand through his hair again.
Sirius Black looked even better. He had grown to be about 6 foot, and with green eyes and neat black hair, he could send any girl to her knees in less than a minute. His smile was charming, and pretty much just said, "Please come to bed with me."
Remus Lupin had definitely had the biggest improvement. He wasn't the pale, sickly boy he used to be anymore. In fact, he was the tallest of the three, now. He was about 6'3", and he had cute his light brown hair so it was a lot shorter, and looked clean. His shy smile was extremely cute, and his blue eyes sparkled with delight. Lily knew this was the type of guy Mercy usually went for, and sure enough, Mercy was checking him out and grinning a little.
Lily had to admit, they all looked pretty good. She found herself blushing.
James smirked. "Like what you see Evans?"
Lily snapped out of her trance. "No, you should learn to brush your hair every once in a while." She snapped.
James laughed. "Sure, whatever Evans. See you on the train."
Lily and Mercy watched them go. Mercy turned to Lily. "So, are you done checking James out?" She teased.
Lily blushed. "What? No way." She scoffed. "I mean, he is Potter. And when did you start calling him James?" She asked.
Mercy smirked. "Since his best friend became drop-dead gorgeous."
In the Marauders Compartment
James walked in and sighed. "Did you see Evans? Damn, she was fine. Why can't she like me now? Then everything would be great!"
Sirius rolled his eyes. "Yea, everything would be hunky-dory!" He said sarcastically.
Remus snorted. "Face it James, she will never like you. She hates you, remember?"
James rolled his eyes and pulled out a magazine. "Yea, well, I saw you looking at Mercy. Does little Remmy have a little crush?"
Remus turned bright red and threw a book at him. "She is hott."
Sirius snorted. "Yea, right. So I guess I am the only one who isn't madly in love?"
Before either of the boys could say something, the compartment door opened, and Jackie Kearney stepped in. "Hey, have any of you guys seen Lily or Mercy?"
Jackie was 5'5" and about 100lbs. She looked like Mercy, except she was taller and had lighter hair. It was a dirty blonde. Other then that, they could be twins. That was because Mercy and Jackie were cousins. She was a Beater on the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, and loved every minute of it. Jackie loved to get the girls into strange situations. It was like her specialty.
Sirius stared at her. "Uhhh I uh think t-they..."
James started laughing. "They are in the next compartment over."
Jackie looked at Sirius strangely and thanked James.
Remus started laughing. "And you think we are in love?"
James started laughing also, as Sirius turned redder and redder.
The Girls Compartment
Jackie walked in, and laughed. Her two best friends were playing exploding snap, and they were both badly burnt. "I see you two still can't play."
Mercy gave her cousin a hug. "Hey girlie! You look great!"
Jackie smiled. "Thanks. You look awesome Lils!" She said as she hugged Lily. "I just walked into the boys compartment, and they acted strange. It was like Sirius had dyslexia. Did he fall off his broom or something over the summer?"
Mercy shrugged. "Probably."
Lily rolled her eyes. "Who cares?"
The rest of the trip was pretty uneventful, unless you count Peter breaking his leg by tripping over his shoelace eventful.
The train stopped. "Well, girls, welcome to Hogwarts. This is our year." Mercy announced happily.
