The Tale of Two

It was a hot summer's day on number 4 privet drive. Lily evens was sitting outside on her porch swing letting the breeze capture her thoughts. Lily was a 13 year old girl entering her third year of school. See lily is no ordinary girl. Not only by appearance with her flowing dark red hair and her flashing emerald green eyes, she was also a witch. And her school was no ordinary school either. She went to one of the finest wizarding academies in Europe, Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry. How she missed it so. She missed her friends Anna, Bridgett, Bella, and Star. She missed the moving stair cases the ghosts the nutty professors, hell she even missed fights with her worst enemy James Potter. Yes James Potter he was a wild one. He had uncontrollable messy black hair deep ocean blue eyes that any girl could melt into. He was chaser on the Gryffindor house team and he was, to put it bluntly, a loaded pureblood. All those qualities made him the most eligible bachelor at Hogwarts. Even though he had his good traits he also had his faults. Yes probably all the girls in Hogwarts wanted him but he went through a girl faster then you could say Quidditch. He also had a nasty habit for playing pranks; this is why lily and he got into so many fights. Along side James in everything he did was Sirius Black. Also devilishly handsome, with his shaggy dark brown hair and his puppy dog brown eyes he was also a major prankster and heart breaker. Another one of their friends was Remus Lupin. He was exceptionally handsome but not as stunning as his other friends. He was rather quite but still participated greatly in their pranks. Once a month Remus would always seem to disappear, they said it was to visit his sick mother but lily knew better. And the last of the group was Peter Pettigrew. He was a small tubby boy with sandy blonde hair and a timid look to his face not at all a lady getter as the other three but still a prankster who would join in on the fun. Together the four boys would call themselves the Marauders. They were by far the most popular group in school if they all hated you so did everyone else. But the funny thing was that lily only got cross with James; she liked the rest of them just fine (except maybe Peter). But there was just something about James that pissed her off, not to mention the constant pranks he pulled on her. But enough about James and the Marauders. Lily traveled back inside to her kitchen to get snack. Her family sat in there. Lily's family was Muggles, or non magic folk but it didn't bother Lily a tiny bit. There was her radiant mother who always had a smile on. She had the same red hair as Lily's and stunning hazel eyes. Then there was Mr. Evans sitting there reading the paper. He had shaggy blonde hair and the same brilliant green eyes as Lily's. And the last member of Lilly's family was her sister, Petunia. Petunia was the worst sort of muggle imaginable. She hated anything magic, including Lily. She had blonde hair hazel eyes and a long neck; she kind of resembled a horse. Lily went over to the table to join her family.

"Good morning everyone!" she said cheerfully.

"Good morning sweetie how are you today." Her mom said with her usual smile.

"I'm great mum. How are you father? Petunia?" she asked

"Good." Her father said half consciously, because he was to occupied by his paper

"It'd be better if you weren't here freak!" Petunia said bitterly.

"Petunia be nice to you sister!" her mother snapped.

"Mum my equipment list for Hogwarts came and I was wondering if we could make a trip to Diagon alley soon?"

"Why of coarse dear, you can invite a friend along if you wish."

"Thanks mum." Lily said sweetly and kissed her mom on the cheek.

Lily got up from the table gave her mother a smile, gave her sister a sneer and then went up stairs to owl her best friend Bella to go shopping with her. Yes lily had many best friends but Arabella Figg, Bella for short, was by far her best. With her raven hair and her stunning blue eyes Bella was a fire cracker. She was extremely outgoing and was quite the charmer. Lily was very beautiful but didn't go for what she wanted. Bella on the other hand went right for her prey and usually got what she wanted. Lily made it up to her room and pulled out a piece of parchment and a quill to write to Bella.

Dear Bella

HEEEEY! How has your summer been? Good I hope. Mine has been same old same old boring as usual. My mum is going to take me to Diagon ally in a few days would you like to come? If so just owl me back ASAP

LoTs Of LoVe LiLy

She handed her letter to her owl Juliet and watched her owl soar out the window.

~Ok right now we are changing POV for those of you out there who didn't notice (~

"OY JAMES WHERES THE CALDRIN CAKES?" screamed Sirius

"In the cabinet to your left genius." Said James

"Thanks Jim."

"Don't call me Jim."

"Alright Jimmy."

"Don't call me jimmy either."

"Jeez there is no pleasing you is there."

James Potter and Sirius black stood in the kitchen of the Potter manor looking for a mid day snack. Both boys were also going into there third year at Hogwarts along with lily and her friends.

"Hey you wanna go to Diagon ally in a couple days?" asked James.

"Fur why wot." Said Sirius with his mouth full.

"God you're a pig, I hope you?" said James.

"Thanks Jim!" said Sirius affectionately. James just sighed.
A couple days had past and Lily and Bella were down in Diagon Ally getting their supplies. Bella was talking about how she met the cutest muggle ever.

"Lil you just don't understand I mean this boy was no human he was a GOD!" Bella ranted.

"Really Bella he couldn't have been all that great" sighed Lily.

"Oh but he was. and speaking of cute boys I think I see James potter and Sirius black!"

Lily sighed, just what she need a visit form the stupidest jackass ever.

"Why hello Bella, Lily." Said Sirius elegantly. Bella giggled, Lily knew that Bella had always fancied Sirius, boy was she dumb.

"Hello" Sirius they said in unison.

"Hey Bella, fire head." Said James.

"Oooh clever Potter, did you think of that on by yourself?" replied Lily.

"If I didn't know any better I'd swear you were a snap dragon not a Lily" said James.

"Shove it pot head." Lily was getting extremely angry.

There arguing went on for some time while Bella and Sirius would stand to the side and flirt with each other. Finally when they both finished arguing they decided to leave.

"Come on Bella lets go I've inhaled enough pot for one day." Lily said in a rage.

"Umm OK Bye Sirius, James." Bella said politely.

"OOOOO that James Potter is such an annoyance. CHRIST how could anyone be friends with such a pig headed arrogant shit faced jackass LIKE HIM!" Lily screamed "You know what I think?" said Bella

"What?" said Lily.

"I think you like James." Said Bella smiling.

"WHAT! That is probably the-"

"Smartest thing I've ever said, yes I know I'm a genius."

"I was going more towards retard. How could you think that? It's just sooo ugh!"

"Well you tow are always around each other and you always talk about him it's almost like your obsessed." Said Bella grinning madly.

"Yeah I talk about how much I hate him, and how I always insult him and he insults me!" Lily yelled.

"Yeah. Well hate is a form of passion and mocking is a form of flattery." Said Bella.

"GRR You're so infuriating." Lily said

"Yes, but you love me anyway."

What Lily didn't know was that while she and James were arguing is that Sirius and Bella had a plan. They intended on setting up there two best friend but weren't exactly sure how yet, but if anyone could do it they could.

Little did Bella and Lily know was that James and Sirius were having the same conversation.

"CHRIST ON A CRAKER! I don't know how anyone could stand being in the same presence as that red haired big mouth book worm of a bitch!" James raged.

"Why Jimmy boy if I didn't know any better I'd say you were quite taken with little Lily flower." Said Sirius.

"Well then I guess you don't know any better 'because I hate that girl AND STOP CALLING ME JIMMY!"

"Oooh but I think your wrong James; I could see the heat between. When you told her that she better put out her hair before Diagon Ally burnt down what you were really saying was. 'Jump in to my bed hot mamma.' And when she told you to eat hippogriff dung what she really meant to say was, 'I want you sooo bad be my lover."

"Wow, and I thought you were Looney before, jeez was I wrong."

"Whatever you say James." And that was the end of their conversation. Both groups finished up their shopping and went back home. When Lily got home she was sooo made she could scream. That little run in with Potter was not a pleasant one. And then having her best friend say that stupid thing about her liking James. How stupid was that. 'Yeah like I would ever like James Potter' she thought to herself. Ha what a stupid idea. 'But you know you do' said a little voice in the back of her head. 'WHAT!?! 'You know it's true' 'NO WAY!' 'You shouldn't deny it' 'I DO NOT repeat DO NOT like James and why am I talking to myself?' 'I don't know I'm your sub conscious.' Lily stopped talking herself and fell on her bed. "I DON"T like James Potter." She said to herself as she fell into a distant sleep
