"What do you mean what happened to James, I'm right here" said James.

"No what happened to the old James. The one who would pull pranks and hang out. Not the one who all he can think about is lily. Not the one who is standing in front of me." Said Sirius his temper rising. James was speechless. He didn't know what to say. Sirius was right. He was changing his whole appearance just to impress lily.

"Look I've just been a little busy" lied James.

"busy?!" said Sirius in a sarcastic voice.

"Yeah I've been preoccupied," said James lying again.

"Preoccupied" Sirius repeated again

"All you do is sit around with lily getting all cuddly. I mean I can see you doing that for an hour or so but not the whole day." Said Sirius.

"Then to make it worse all u think about is lily. Someone could diss you right in your face and you wouldn't really care. Or maybe you would but you wouldn't do anything about it." Sirius went on

"look I'm sorry that's the way you feel" said James knowing Sirius was telling the truth,

"ok maybe your right. Ill try to get back to my old self but it's hard. When she's around I feel like I have to be on my best behavior. How about tomorrow we go and play a little prank on Snape." Said James

"whatever see ya in the morning" said Sirius. They both turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Lily awoke the next morning bright and early. She went down to the common room to find James sitting there alone staring into the fire.

"Morning" she said

"Good morning" James replied.

"What's wrong" lily asked

"Nothing just thinking about something Sirius said last night," said James.

"Oh" she said.

"So what are you planning on doing today" said James changing the subject.

"Nothing that I know of. Probably just going to hang around with the girls. Unless you had planned something," she said anxiously.

"No just wondering," he said. Millie came down wondering where lily had gone.

"Morning what are you two doing up so early" Millie asked

"Couldn't sleep you?" said lily. "Same." She replied.

"I'm going to go back up stairs and see if I can go back to sleep. C-you in a couple of hours" said James as he got up and walked up the stairs to his dorm.

A couple of hours later the girls were dressed and down in the common room waiting for the guys to come down. They were talking about what lily was talking to James about this morning. The boys walked down the stairs moments later and said good morning and they all went to breakfast.

During potions class (a/n- remember James sits right next to Sirius and right behind lily) Sirius was talking to James about what they could do to Snape and Malfoy. After class they went and sat by the lake. Snape was sitting about 20 feet away. James and Sirius got up and walked over to Snape. James flicked his wand and Snape floated up into the air. James flicked his wrist again and Snape turned upside down and his wand fell to the floor." "Put me down potter" Snape yelled! Sirius started to laugh as James twirled Snape in the air. Lily came up out of nowhere

"WHAT IN HEAVENS NAME ARE YOU DOING James!" She yelled.

"I was just having a little fun Lily. " he said

"WILL YOU PUT HIM DOWN!" she yelled.

"Fine fine" James said. He flicked his wrist again and Snape dropped to the floor.

"You've never changed." James said.

"You yelled at me when I did this when u hated me and u yell at me when I do this when were dating". James joked. Sirius laughed.

"Lets just go back up to the common room and meet up with every body. Lily said changing the subject. They walked back to the common room.
