Disclaimer- nothing is my own!
A/N This is just a boredom story but it's my 1st ff so please R&R! I know it will be crappy so please don't flame me! Summary: It is 5th year for Maurarders, Lily, and her friends. Dumbledore announces a week of games for 5th years and up. Where does it go?
"Could I have your attention please?" Dumbledore asked the already silent room. He had that all-too-familiar twinkle in his eyes, that told everyone something was definitely going on. They listened eagerly to hear what it could possibly be.
"I hope it will be something worth listening to" James whispered to Sirius in a bored tone.
"Yeah, like a new Quidditch Pitch. Now That would be cool!" Sirius said, getting excited.
Remus overheard and whispered, "Do you two think of anything besides Quidditch? Honestly, Dumbledore could be telling us something serious, and you two are droning on about a SPORT!"
James opened his mouth to protest, but Sirius cut him off. "Moony, Moony, Moony. To answer your question, yes, I think about girls a lot also! And quidditch is not a mere sport. It is our way of life."
Remus rolled his eyes as James nodded his head emphatically at everything Sirius said.
Peter added-quite randomly, "Look at that prefect Evans! Miss Goody-Goody is taking notes on what he's saying."
Both Remus and James whipped around to face Peter. "Don't ever say something about Lily or prefects again!" Remus said fiercely.
Peter looked frightened and could only nod. He always said the wrong thing. He never knew when to laugh, or when to be serious-which wasn't often. But a moment later. The whole incident was forgotten.
Not far away, Lily was sitting with her 3 friends, Natalie, Olivia, and Katrina. She was indeed taking notes, and James looked longingly at her as he admired the way her soft but vibrant red hair fell softly down as she bent over the paper.
Dumbledore smiled as he caught the look, and went on to make the announcement. " Welcome. I have decided to host 3 events this year, and those 5th year and up are eligible to join. I hope this will open your minds a little, as they will most likely be muggle games. The first one will be announced tomorrow. Until them, good night."
There were grumbles heard about the Great Hall as the students complained about having to wait until tomorrow.
In the Gryffindor common room, the four marauders were talking excitedly between themselves. "I wonder if there will be Quidditch??" James said to Sirius.
Remus opened his mouth again- but then Peter interrupted.
"I heard there will only be one game, and it will be for girls!" Peter said, in a squeaky voice. They all gaped at him, openmouthed.
"You CAN'T be serious!!" Remus said frantically.
"Actually." Sirius began, but was cut off by James. "Don't say it, Padfoot." He warned Sirius.
"Sorry, I couldn't help myself." Sirius said sheepishly. They all nodded understandably, as the lame joke attempts happened quite often.
Meanwhile in the girl's dormitories, Lily sat brushing her luxurious red hair. Next to her, Nat, Livi, and Kat sat quietly, just watching, mesmerized, until Kat asked them, quite suddenly, what they all thought of these games that were to take place.
Lily took a long while to think. "Well, I guess it may be fun, as long as things don't get out of hand. It does seem interesting, especially with Muggle games to play." Since Lily was muggle born, she thought she had a good chance on competing or winning, even.
Katrina said excitedly, "Lily, maybe we could get you and James together. That would be so cute!"
Lily cast her a Look, then said quietly, "I don't know why he likes me, boring old me. He could have any girl, they all like him, but he chooses me. I don't get it, or him, or that matter."
Her friends knew the subject was closed now, so they drifted off to peaceful dreams, all except Lily, who was deep in thought. " why does he like me. I'm not anything special. But if I did like him, would it only be because he likes me. I don't know. I just don't know."
At the same time, the four boys had gone to sleep. Well, 3 of them had. James lay awake thinking, " Lily Evans. Lily Potter. Lily Evans-Potter." He then realized what he was doing and mentally smacked himself. Then he fell asleep.
A/N hope you all liked the revised chapter better, it is longer and with more detail and depth to the other characters, but I will try to also redo chapter 2 eventually, to develop Lily's friends more. Until then, Ciao!
