~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
It was around 10: 30 a.m. at the Potter Mansion , and a seventeen-year old James Potter had just been rudely awakened by his best friend Sirius Black ( A/N : *drools* ). James sprung from his bed in a desperate attempt to get away, only to find himself on the cold floor. "Awww Man!! Padfoot! Why'd you have to go and do that! "said James. "Jamesie, did I disturb any of you dreams about Evans?? "Inquired Sirius. He grinned as James mumbled obscenities incoherently. It was common knowledge that James was disgustingly in love with Lily Evans. But it seemed she was the only girl that had no romantic feelings for him whatsoever. As Sirius looked at James 's alarm clock he saw that it was 10:33 and with the force of a hurricane remembered it was September the first . James and Sirius were both wizards. They attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the train left at 11 am. "James!" Sirius yelped , "Were gonna be late so hurry your arse up before I have to dropkick you all the way to King's Cross Station."
After an endless car ride filled with Sirius and James making fun of innocent passer-by's, they were there. James hopped out of the car and tripped Sirius. It was a daily ritual between the two pranksters to attempt murder at least once. Not that they meant to be successful of course. They had better targets for that. James and Sirius looked at each other, and said in unison "Let's go find Snapey!" They said quick goodbyes to Mr. and Mrs. Potter and left to find their arch-nemesis, Severus Snape. Sirius had lived with James and his family ever since he was 16 and had run away from his parent's. The Black's and Potter's were both purebloods but they were two different worlds apart. The Potter's respected muggle- born children and half-bloods. But the Black's despised them. Sirius never saw a reason to hate muggles and when he was sorted, he was put into Gryffindor. Not Slytherin like the rest of his family. So he was shunned. And that's why he left. James' family welcomed him with open arms and James couldn't be happier, living with his best mate ever.
They hopped onto the train only to find themselves face to face with their other best friend Remus Lupin. Remus looked at his two best friends and noticed the change. (A/N I just remembered descriptions! Eek!)
Sirius had grown at least 3 inches in 2 months. He was now 6'1" and Sirius had long abandoned his short ponytail. His hair now fell over his eyes which were a striking steel gray. James, it seemed, had grown about a foot. He was now 6'3" but still had his messy hair sticking out at every angle possible and he still had those familiar black glasses around his sapphire blue eyes. Remus himself had changed as well. He was now about 6 foot and had cut his sandy brown hair. His amber eyes still speckled with green still had that happy yet mischievous sparkle about them. He looked quite strained and tired for it had been the full moon 2 days ago. Remus was a werewolf, you see. Now, to normal kindhearted people this might seem a little strange but would present no real dilemma. But Hogwarts was filled with evilness, those Slimy Slytherins as Sirius would say. Anyway, Remus would be horribly shunned if it got out to everyone at Hogwarts. James and Sirius had found out in first year after hearing 6 months worth of "Um, Aunt Millicent died and I have to go to her funeral." It might have been kept secret longer but Remus had failed to notice that Aunt Millicent had died about 6 times. But after figuring it out, James, Sirius and their other friend Peter Pettigrew had decided to become illegal animagus to keep Remus company during his illness.
Remus was suddenly snapped back to reality (A/N: oh there goes gravity.. Okay I'll stop) by Sirius pulling his nose.
"Get OFF, Padfoot! "yelled Remus.
"No problemo my friend! "replied Sirius. "Let's go find Wormy!"
"Hey guys!" said a voice as Sirius screamed. "No! Don't take us! We didn't mean to play pran- Wormy?"
"Umm yeah... Are you okay Paddy? " asked Peter. Peter was about 5'11" and wasn't as attractive as the other three but still wasn't bad. He had blond hair and turquoise eyes that showed his emotions.
"Yeah, Yeah, whatever let's go find a compartment then go over today's agenda," said Sirius quickly before setting off down the hall. James smirked and followed him, Remus and Peter behind him. They got up to Sirius just as he opened the second last compartment down the hall.
"Hey fire! "greeted Sirius. He was facing a beautiful girl named Lily Evans. She had straight crimson hair flowing down her back and was about 5'2" (A/N I'm short so she is too). Her green eyes sparkled with amusement as she replied sweetly with an odd smile," Call me fire one more time and YOU will have to put out a fire near your family jewels."
"I like em' feisty!" said Sirius but instantly made a beeline for the seat beside Lily's three best friends Cali Romanov, Rylee Matthews and Keltie Micheals. Cali was 5'4" with long blond hair and deep blue eyes. She was perky and fun and was to Lily's annoyance a morning person. ( A/N random fact !) Rylee was 5'7" had long black hair, pale skin and blue eyes and was called the "ice Queen "because she never dated anyone but was one of the most beautiful girls in school. Keltie was the tallest at 5'8" and had brown hair with copper highlights with gray- blue eyes. All girls were very pretty.
"So Lil', any idea who your fellow head person thingy is?" inquired Sirius at the precise moment James, Remus and Peter walked in.
"How'd you know I was Head Girl? "Asked Lily.
"Well, who else was it gonna be? That really hot girl from Hufflepuff? I've always thought she was a bit thick. Nice to look at but definitely thick"
"My god Sirius, you manwhore. Is that all you think about? "said Cali obviously disgusted.
"That and a lot more Hun," he replied. Rylee started gripping her book with alarming strength and Sirius looked frightened.
"Whoa there tiger! I Kid! I Kid!" said Sirius quickly, fearing for his life.( Black's Gurl : Like Normal People! )
"Hey Lily," greeted James timidly. He watched Lily's face turn sour.
"Hello Potter," she spat. Just like everyone knew James fancied Lily, everyone knew Lily had the temper as short and small has a salt molecule when it came to James and wasn't particularly fond of him. He thought she was smart, beautiful, and witty and everything he ever wanted. She thought he was arrogant, mean and had no heart and was everything she didn't want. So James had just tried being her friend but Lily was one of those stubborn idiots who just didn't accept change. (Black's Gurl: My Poor Prongsie!)
"Smooth, Potter, Smooth," James muttered under his breath as he went to sit in between Cali and Rylee. Sensing the tension, Sirius stood up promptly and pointing to the corner of the room he yelled," Boys? AGENDA! "The four boys followed and almost immediately James and Sirius started talking in hushed voices. Lily, Cali, Rylee and Keltie ( Black's Gurl: Notice how they all end with an "eee" sound ? No? Well I did!) all sighed and began chatting.
"Wonder what the beginning of the year prank is this year eh?" Rylee pondered.
"Hmm. I wonder. Well last year, they poured shampoo all over the Slytherin table and transfigured them all into chickens. Poor Snape was devastated. His usually so-greasy-I-could-work-for-Colonel-Sanders hair was clean! The boys really topped themselves!" said Lily.
"Huh? Who's Colonel Sondeer? And how do you top yourself? "asked Keltie.
"It's SANDERS! I swear Kelt, I know you're pure-blood but seriously!"
"One word Kelt, one word. Muggle Studies," said Rylee sweetly.
Suddenly the compartment door opened and in walked Amos Diggory, the school's biggest player. The boys turned around at the noise. They weren't particularly friendly with Diggory since he was Cali's boyfriend and Remus had a crush the size of Russia on Cali.
"Oh. It's you," said Sirius as if Diggory was a mark on the sole of his shoe.
"Yeah. Gotta problem?" he replied with a air of arrogance.
"Yeah. Loads" mumbled Remus under his breath. He couldn't risk Cali knowing how he felt if he wanted a chance with her.
"Diggory. Go away and screw a goat you bastard!" yelled James.
"James! Leave him alone! What did he do to you!?! "screamed Cali.
"You really wanna know? Well how about Prank-Back number 689 and ΒΌ? Huh ? When he nearly caused us to get EXPELLED? We're not that bad Cali. Just calm down and if you wanna be with him then just don't do it infront of us, please? "
"Okay James. I'm sorry," sighed Cali in defeat. "Come on Amos, let's go. I'll be back soon guys."
Just then the compartment door opened (Black's Gurl: Yet again!) and in hopped in the school's resident whore, Holly McFarland.
"Amos, Honey I was wondering if ya wanted to go snog or somethin'? The train arrives in like 15 minutes so like yeah, ya wanna?" (Black's Gurl: Long sentence eh?)
Amos turned from red to green faster than a traffic light. It didn't even stop there. He then turned a pale yellow which Remus thought, made him uglier than he already was.
"Amos? Who's she?" asked Cali turning red. (A/N: I got tired of writing black's gurl but people turn red a lot. I must change that.)
"Who are you? Amos is MINE, you slut "said Holly.
Remus was outraged. How dare she, he thought.
"WHAT THE HELL? You BITCH! I think-no wait I KNOW that the only slut in this room is you, McFarland! And YOU! Diggory! Cheating on Cali! You don't even deserve her! Go back to where you belong! Which is a shit-hole in case you're wondering!" yelled Remus. And with that, the pair stomped out of the compartment, but before they were out of ear-shot Sirius, being Sirius felt he needed to have his two cents in.
"Y'know that kinda means you're OVER! HA!" yelled Sirius with glee. He got back in just as the train stopped.
"Whoopie! We're Heeeeeeere! Come on ladies and laddies!" sang James. They hopped off the train and walked toward the carriages which would take them to Hogwarts. As they started climbing into one of the carriages, they came to the realization that not all eight of them would fit into the carriage so they came up with the idea that Lily would sit on James and Rylee would sit on Sirius, much to their annoyance.
"So Lily-Bean, how was your summer?" asked James. Lily, who was used to pick-up lines, was shocked. She stared for a few moments, (A/N It's rude to stare! Wait, I made her stare! My bad!) then decided to speak.
"Why do you care? You probably just wanna get me in bed or something so go away!" spoke Lily harshly.
"Well sorry. I didn't think there was anything wrong with being nice," came the reply. Instantly, Lily felt bad but shook her head and decided to ignore it. Meanwhile, Rylee and Sirius were bickering like a married couple.
"I'm NOT touching you ass!" argued Sirius while grinning like a madman.
"Oh yeah? Then why is your hand there?" replied Rylee.
"It's not on your butt, woman. It's on your lower back. There's a difference."
"Yeah, Yeah."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*
After endless bickering, they reached the castle and went inside. All eight of them sat at the Gryffindor table and whispered quietly through the sorting. They had all learned to tune out since third year.
"Come on, Come on! Where's the food?" asked Sirius and James impatiently.
"It's coming just shut the hell up," muttered Keltie.
At the end of the sorting, Professor Dumbledore stood up to make his beginning of the year speech.
"Welcome back to another year of Hogwarts! And hello first-years as well as the students who act like first-years," his eyes flickered to where the Marauders, as the four boys had dubbed themselves, were sitting looking like if they didn't get food, they might wet themselves. ( A/N: Ewe!)
"Hey Albus! What up dawg?" asked James.
"Er- Word..?" replied Dumbledore. There was a bit of laughter before he started up again. "Anyway, moving on, it gives me great pleasure to introduce a new teacher this year for Transfiguration, Professor McGonagall," he continued and there was a round of applause for a proper looking lady with a tight bun and emerald green robes. She looked like a person you really did not want to make angry.
"And our Head Girl, Lily Evans and Head Boy, James Potter," said Dumbledore.
"Prongs! That's you!" hissed Sirius to James.
"Wh- ? Oh yeah....." replied James, and stood up. Lily stood up as well, and turned beet red when she saw James.
"Shit! Working with Potter!" she whispered to Rylee.
"Lily, get over it. He's grown up. Climb out of your stupid pride and take the time to see that," said Rylee,annoyed.
"Well whatever. I saw you getting kind of friendly with Black. Please don't tell me he's growing on you?" begged Lily.
"You know, we're right here!" James told them.
"I've been thinking and-"started Sirius but was rudely interrupted by Remus.
"Have you? Did it hurt?" joked Remus.
"That hurts. Anyway as I was saying before I was interrupted so rudely by Lupin over there, I've been thinking and I think we should just all eat."
"Really? I find it interesting that you feel that way," said James.
"I find it interesting that you find it interesting that Sirius would feel that way," continued Remus.
"Do you? Because I find it interesting that Remus would find it interesting that James found it interesting that Sirius f-," but Peter didn't get to finish before Lily had interjected," What are you trying to do ? Go for the most interesting's in a sentence?"
"You know," pondered James," we could do that,"
Before anyone could reply, Dumbledore stood up to bid everyone to their dormitories. "I would like for the prefects to lead their house's to their dormitories and would the Head Boy and Girl please come to the Head Table for a moment." Cali, Remus, Sirius, Rylee, Peter and Keltie all went to the Gryffindor Common Room while Lily and James went to the Head Table.
"I would like to congratulate the both of you on achieving this post. I trust you will both do your job responsibly and positively. You have the permission to give detentions and take away house points but I would ask you not to abuse your powers unless you wish for them to be taken away. That is all for today, you may go. Oh, and the Gryffindor password is Cocoa Puffs. Good night." He finished, before setting off to his room.(A/N: Ever wondered where Dumbledore slept?)
Lily and James both set off to the Common Room. As they walked there was an awkward silence. James, being James decided to say something.
"So, how are you?" he asked politely.
"I'm alright, I guess." She replied with a bit of bitterness.
"Can't we just be friends?" James blurted out. Lily was taken aback.
"I'm not ready for that, I ju- just why don't we just be aqquaintances for now," she asked. She watched as James looked crestfallen. Lily felt relief wash over her as they reached the portrait of the Fat lady.
"Cocoa Puffs."
They both walked in an empty common-room and started off to their respective staircases.
"Lily?"
"Yeah"
"Er, Good night"
"Thanks James, you too"
He smiled and ran up the boy's staircase up to the seventh door, grinning like a lunatic. She had called him James. He opened the door that was labelled Seventh Years (Property of the MARAUDERS! Courtesy of Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs)
He saw that Sirius was lying on the floor snoring and mumbling,"Rylee...yeah..." James smirked and walked over to his bed. He hopped in and fell asleep instantly, his head swimming with dreams of a beautiful green-eyed redhead.
A/N: That's It! My first chappie! Hope y'all liked! I accept flames! Tell me what you think! Thanks! REVIEW! And ill give you cookies! * holds up jar of internet cookies* well I have to go sleepie time! Later!

You have the permission to give detentions and take away house points but I would ask you not to abuse your powers unless you wish for them to be taken away. That is all for today, you may go. Oh, and the Gryffindor password is Cocoa Puffs. Good night." He finished, before setting off to his room.(A/N: Ever wondered where Dumbledore slept?)
Lily and James both set off to the Common Room. As they walked there was an awkward silence. James, being James decided to say something.
"So, how are you?" he asked politely.
"I'm alright, I guess." She replied with a bit of bitterness.
"Can't we just be friends?" James blurted out. Lily was taken aback.
"I'm not ready for that, I ju- just why don't we just be aqquaintances for now," she asked. She watched as James looked crestfallen. Lily felt relief wash over her as they reached the portrait of the Fat lady.
"Cocoa Puffs."
They both walked in an empty common-room and started off to their respective staircases.
"Lily?"
"Yeah"
"Er, Good night"
"Thanks James, you too"
He smiled and ran up the boy's staircase up to the seventh door, grinning like a lunatic. She had called him James. He opened the door that was labelled Seventh Years (Property of the MARAUDERS! Courtesy of Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs)
He saw that Sirius was lying on the floor snoring and mumbling,"Rylee...yeah..." James smirked and walked over to his bed. He hopped in and fell asleep instantly, his head swimming with dreams of a beautiful green-eyed redhead.
