Chapter 4: The Plan for This Evening

James couldn't believe what was happening. How did this happen..? Just last night he was a boy and now . . . this flirtatious girl..?

"What is going on..?!" James shouted. Then he stopped at his own voice. Sweet and much higher pitched than his own, "WHY ME—?!" James cried.

"Why what..?" said someone asked groggily from somewhere in the room.

James jumped back into his (or Lily's) four-poster quickly and jerked the curtains shut. He heard footsteps coming over to his (well Lily's) bed.

"Lily is that you..?"

James was thinking fast. What should he say..? Wait . . . no . . . what would Lily say..? His mind was racing now. What would Lily say..?

James opened the curtain, "Ummm . . . yea— I mean yes..?"

Smooth James, he thought, Real smooth . . .

"You alright..?"

It was Marie. She had a candle in her hand and looked a bit extra sleepy. James was guessing he woke her up with the several screams he had let out.

Smiling weakly, James said, "Oh . . . erm..? Me..? Fine..! Yup just fine..!"

Marie cocked an eyebrow, "No you're not."

James felt his heart jump. Could she tell that something was not right. He hadn't even said that much . . . was he that bad at acting..?

"I—I'm n-n-not..?" James asked nervously trying to act as Lily-like as possible.

"Course not," Marie said, "You're still upset about James."

James felt as if he had lost twenty pounds. He sighed in relief and answered, "Well . . . oh you're right. I'm still mad at that stupid arrogant, git."

Marie laughed and James felt some stress leave. If he was this worked up about morning hellos . . . how was he going to survive as Lily for the whole day..?

"THIS CAN NOT BE HAPPENING—!" Lily shouted in her new voice (more like James' voice).

Sirius was full of confusion, "James— what..? What's wrong..? No what's going on..?" he demanded, "You're acting really . . . odd . . ."

Lily looked back at him. She felt as if he could see right through her and knew she wasn't really James. She bit her lip (well James's lip) uncomfortably, "O-o-odd..?"

"Yea . . ." Sirius said, then he broke into a grin, "Oh I know what's wrong Prongsie . . ."

Lily felt frozen. Did Black know she wasn't Potter..? Could he tell just by Lily's behavior..? Was her acting that bad..?

"You're still upset about Tiger Lily aren't ya..?" Sirius asked slyly.

Lily must have looked like the happiest person in the world or something, because she let out a huge sigh, "You caught me . . . I was trying to hide my love for that sweet, wonderfully—"

"Is it time for the Lily 'update' already..?" Peter moaned getting out of bed.

Lily wanted to wring each one of their necks. Especially James Potter's. He had updates on her..? He was going to pay for that. Lily was going to make sure of it.

Lily smiled doing her best James impression and Kingsley asked if he had just eaten a sour piece of candy. Lily wanted to slap him but resisted the urge . . . that wouldn't go over well and she knew it. She was trying her best to be like James . . . and it was only morning.

James fiercely brushed his (well Lily's) long, beautiful hair. He felt like he was attacking a giant furry animal and loosing the battle. Did Lily do this every morning..? This hair was a battlefield..!

"OUCH—!" James cursed, "Stupid hair . . . I'm gonna get it all chopped off . . ." he said hotly.

Marie turned around, eyebrows raised, mouth in a drop, "Seriously Lily..?"

James, who forgot that Lily would never chop off her red locks, answered in his own opinion, "Yea . . . it's so annoying."

"Come on Lily," Sarah said smiling, "You're just having a bad hair day is all."

"It'd be better if it was all gone," James mumbled.

"Oh tish-tosh," Grace said who had finished dressing, "You'd miss it if you cut it all off."

James put his new silky, painted hands in front of his face, "PLEASE—! Don't dress in front of me girls..!"

All of them exchanged looks, "Lily . . . are you sure you're feeling alright..?"

"Of course," James said trying to imitate Lily, "I just don't enjoy watching girls dress."

The all gave James a raised eyebrow.

"GROSS—!" Lily shouted as Kingsley took off his shirt to change into uniform, "Don't dress in front of me..!"

Kingsley looked at Sirius very strangely.

"I do this every morning James . . ." Kingsley said in confusion.

Lily stopped herself. James wouldn't act this way. She had to think, "Oh you're right. How stupid and arrogant of me."

"Right . . ." Remus said rolling is eyes and tying his shoes.

Lily went into the boys' bathroom and dressed there. Sirius asked, "James . . . are you sure you're okay..? I mean you've been kinda jumpy, ya know..? Is there something maybe I could do to help ya..?"

Lily assured she was fine, "Oh erm . . . no. I'm good Pladfot . . . I'm good."

Sirius looked back at Peter, "Pladfot..?"

Peter shrugged.

After Lily had changed she went down to the Common Room looking for James, in her body. She sat on the couch looking up and down the Girls' Staircase waiting for Lily . . . no James to come down. After 15 minutes of waiting and shaking the Marauders off by saying she was going to flirt with Lily, Lily saw her body walking clumsily down the stairs.

"You—!" Lily said stomping over in James' body and smacking James in the (well in her) face. James let out a girly squeak and grabbed Lily's (well his) hands.

"STOP THAT—!" James demanded, "BOYS DON'T SLAP ONE ANOTHER..!"

"AND GIRLS DON'T WALK LIKE THEY HAVE DUCK FEET—!" Lily shouted back.

James looked down at his (Lily's) feet, "I don't walk like I have duck feet."

"Yes you do. I saw you falling down the stairs," Lily said putting her hands on her (James') hips.

James sprung to life immediately, "Don't put your hands on your hips..! Guys don't do that..!"

"Well they do now if you don't undo what you've done," Lily snarled, "I don't want to be YOU anymore..!"

James glared at her, "Well Lily I didn't do this. And I hate just as much being YOU—!"

Lily shot him a piercing stare and felt like she was going to cry. James picked up on this and frantically tried to come her down, "I'm sorry..! I'm just mad and— don't do that..! Come on Lily, guys don't cry."

Lily tried to stop herself, "I'm sorry but— I DON'T WANT TO BE YOU ANYMORE—!"

"And I don't want to be you anymore either," James said, "But we're gonna have to deal with it. Come on. We can go through the whole day acting like one another. Just not embarrassing each other. Then tonight we can sneak to the library and look for a book to reverse this."

Lily raised an eyebrow, "There wouldn't be a book like that just in the library."

James nodded and grinned, "I know," he said folding his (Lily's arms), "We'll be stopping by the Restricted Section."

Lily looked like she was going to burst out laughing, "Oh yes because they let just anyone in the Restricted Section Potter. We'll be seen..!"

Again James grinned and reaching into his bag pulled out a silvery, soft cloak, "Who says we have to be seen..?" he asked with a mischievous smile.

Author's Note: Okay so there chapter 4. Well Lily and James don't seem too happy in each other's bodies now do they..? Well tell me what you think..?
