She doesn't seem to Share my Feelings

Summary: It began at first year, when both Lily and James feel they need to burst each other's egos. James is popular at Hogwarts, along with Remus, Sirius and Peter. Lily is just normal. So why is she playing hard-to-get?! Love/Hate.

Disclaimer: Anything you don't recognize probably belongs to me, like a certain spell or character. But if you do, it belongs to Ms. JK Rowling, she rocks the world. Can't you just feel it shaking?

My first MWPP story!! Hope you like it, and a little review couldn't hurt.



Prologue

"AAAAURGHHHH!! I CAN'T STAND THIS ANY MORE!!" Lily yelled, waking up everyone in her dormitory.

"What is going on?!" Sara snapped as she violently sat up, she's tall and fit but also an annoying ginger-head whom Lily never got on so well with. "How dare you yell so loud waking up everyone from here to Asia?!!"

"This is untoleratable!" Lily breathed, pushing her pillow over her face with closed eyes. "It's just too dark!! It's too quiet!!" her muffled yet loud voice came from under it, "I haven't slept since I first came to this bloody school three days ago!!"

"So? Lily, what are you on about?" Her new friend Lana demanded, she had wavy shoulder-length light brown hair, currently tied in a french bun. "Don't you want it to be peaceful so that you could sleep nicely?"

"No!!" Lily sighed, she sat up and flicked her long straight auburn her hair behind her shoulders. "I'm just so not used to this!! Back at the big apartment which I live in, I would always drift off to sleep at the sound of the noisy streets - cars moving, people chattering, plus lights would pass through my window and all!! Now compare it to this."

"Well, you're just gonna have to get used to this new system now, haven't you?" Sara angrily half-yelled, "You woke me up, at." She glared at her watch, "3 o'clock a.m., and I was having a great dream too!! This hot new guy, Sirius Black, had his arms around me!!"

Lana snorted at this last remark, "Like THAT would really ever happen!!"

"Shut up!!" And Sara pulled her blanket over her head and continued on with her soft snoring.

"That's an improvement to her appearance, don't tell her I said that unless you wanna be murdered." Melody yawned; she's a pretty Indonesian girl who happened to be Sara's so-called best friend. "Say Lily, what are these -ah- 'kars' you were on about?" She was apparently interested in anything Muggleish.

"It's 'cars', and I'll tell you in the mornin', if you want." Lily stated, "Just go back to bed, sorry for waking you all up."

"It's OK, Lily, we don't really mind," another friend assured her, she became quite close to Lily first day of first year at school, her name was Agne and she was a beautiful but an exceptionally studious blonde Lithuanian, "Just hope you would go to sleep, G'night."

"Right." Lily sighed, and rested her head on her knees, which she hugged tightly with her arms. And in 2 seconds, everyone but her had their eyes shut, dreaming peacefully again.

She knew it would so totally be useless to even try and fall sleep now, so she shuffled off her bed and went down into the Gryffindor common room. She layed down on her stomach on a rug in front of the blazing fire. A dreamy smile formed on her face as she remembered this cute sandy-haired boy, Remus Lupin, who winked at her while they were on their way to Herbology. She shook her head, "Forget it, Lily, he'll never be interested in you." She thought sadly.

So far, all the first year female population at Hogwarts likes, no, are obsessed with him. Him and his 2 other friends, well 3 but no one throws a second look at Peter, Sirius and James have already become big shot around here. Not only because of their stunning looks. They always somehow seem to be dragging the social spotlight onto themselves, they do pranks on other boys - in a humorous but not serious way, if it were serious - it would be done mostly on Slytherin enemies and would be called a 'Marauder Prankfest' Everyone's feared of getting one. They always have hilarious comebacks to give teachers, plus they were all pureblood, rich and came from exceptionally high-dignified families. Each one had quite a different cute personality about him (not Peter, though, they just use him for most of the things they do, but he doesn't seem to mind much). On the great hall they always had the coolest talks (sometimes) in loud voices, which causes people to interestedly gawk at them.

Even some second and third years from all three houses (You can bet no one from Slytherin house thinks friendly of them, and vice versa) squeal at the sight of them. They really are quite popular. And to think they managed to achieve this in only three days at the start of school! God, if they now founded a fanclub of themselves they'd probably have at least 104 members- Lily thought.

Just then, Lily heard some footsteps. Someone from the boys' dormitories was heading down into the common room, late at this hour. She stayed there, staring, her curiosity getting the best of her. The person now came into view - and it was-

"Potter? James Potter?" Lily blurted out, startling him and sitting up straight from her position. "Don't you know it's three o' clock in the morning?!" It was the first time she talked to him since she arrived at Hogwarts.

She felt aware of him briefly inspect the dark blue circles under her eyes from the lack of sleep with disgust, then he twisted his face in annoyance and huffed, "It is absolutely none of your business, Evans, and look who's talking anyway-you seem to have hang out here at first, earlier."

"I don't deny that but at least I don't go around all the time walking with a swollen head," she mocked, "like I'm big-shot all the time. And I always do my homework and never drift off in class, like you do!"

Angrily, he grabbed her arm and squeezed it tightly so that she couldn't break free. "Don't you ever again dare," He breathed dangerously, his face close to hers. "to insult me, mudbl- muggle born!! Or I swear, you'd then wish you'd never been born. Say you get it. Say you won't compare me to your own pathetic self again."

Lily was still struggling to break loose of his tight grip on her arm, but her petite and skinny (in a nice way) body was no match for his masculine strong one (from playing Quidditch all the time, no doubt). "N-no. You're hurting me!!" She felt a tear run down her cheeks, the pain was unbearable.

"Say that you're sorry and that you will never ever do it again, now!" James threatened, his voice getting even more lower and dangerous, "and I swear I'll let you go."

"I - I apologize," she winced.

"And?"

"and I - I swear I will-"

"James?" The sound of someone coming down the staircase called, and to her relief, James immediately dropped Lily's arm as though it all of a sudden caught on fire.

Remus Lupin came into view.

"He just abused me!!" Lily cried, and held up her very red and bruised arm where James had squeezed it. "Look!"

Remus raised an eyebrow, his eyes traveling back and forth from her to his fuming friend. "James, what's going on?"

"She just insulted me," James rolled his eyes, "so I got a little carried away and made her apologize." He shot her a death glare, "If anyone else finds out about this, you'll be sorry." And he shot up off to sleep.

Remus gave her a sympathetic look, God-his eyes are amazing, all sparkly and dark hazel, Lily thought. Though he wasn't as built-up as James and Sirius were, nor as tall as them, but he looked quite. handsome, in a different way.

"You'd better listen to him and keep this a secret." Remus told her, flopping down onto a couch, "if James sets his mind onto something, he would go at any length just to achieve it. Try putting some cold water onto that arm, it always helped with my injuries."

He pulled out a red rose from his pajamas and began slowly pulling off it's petals. As though Lily wasn't there watching him.

"Erm- hey, what brings you here at this time of the day, I mean, night?" she asked, but seeing the look he was giving her - she quickly launched into her own summarized explanation of the whole not-being-able-to-fall- asleep-because-of-the-quiet-stillness-of-the-atmosphere thing.

"But, Lily, don't you know?" Remus said, surprised. "There's this simple spell my mother taught me to perform to make your wand let out a soft light and a tiny clicking noise of a watch when I was young." He was obviously smarter than the rest of his friends, but a little more quieter than them.

"That would be the perfect solution to my problem, only, uh," she said, embarrassed, "I don't really know how to do that much of spells since my parents aren't really our type."

"Oh," he said, looking at her with understandment, this made Lily's cheeks go a little pink for some reason. "This is how you do it." He used his wand for demonstration. "You swish your wand in a circle, doing it as many times as possible and taking your time, and say while doing so, "Semi-Lumos-di- Blomasto."

Immediately, the spell took effect as promised. Lily was impressed. "Ok, I got it. Thanks."

"Whatever," he muttered absent-mindedly, and then left up to his dorm.

Feeling slightly happier, Lily skipped up to bed and successfully managed to accomplish the spell without waking anyone up.

For the first time in three days, she slept.
