Tutoring the Enemy (by iigreenteaii)

Refrain:
James walked up to the common room after parting ways with Lily, still smiling to himself.
She almost seemed like a different person. He walked past the portrait and spotted a SOMEONE sitting next to the desk.
"Evans? How'd you get here so fast?"
"Potter, what the bloody hell are you talking about?" Lily growled, "I was here the whole time waiting for your ugly arse!"
Chapter 5
"What are you talking about? I just tutored you in Transfiguration in the library." James said confused.
Lily barked out a harsh laugh, "tutored me in Transfiguration in the library Potter? Are you bloody mad?! I was here waiting for you to come for your lesson for the past hour!"
James's face broke into a smile, "oh Evans! You're embarrassed! No need to be embarrassed Lily flower! The whole school saw what happened between us."
"Excuse me, but, what the bloody hell happened?!" Lily's usual calm and patient face was replaced by one of frustration.
"You kissed me remember?" James grinned stupidly, "damn, I felt like I was in heaven."
"I kissed you?! When the hell did this happen?" Lily tugged at her hair.
"This morning," James raised an eyebrow, " if I didn't like you so much Evans, I'd think that you were insane."
"B-b-" Lily gaped at him with an open mouth, she closed it and opened again. "I-I think I need to lie down."
"Do you want me to join you?" James wriggled his eyebrows at her. Lily stared and walked up to the tall black haired Marauder. Lily raised an arm and smacked his face.
"If I hear anything like that come out of your mouth again, I'll make sure you'll never be able to reproduce..." Lily left the sentence hanging and turned to walk up the girls' tower, but turned back to James, "ever again."
"Bye, my Lily flower!" James called and walked out of the Gryffindor common room.
"Oh, Prongs, Lily wanted to meet you in the library." Peter said as he walked up the stairs to the Gryffindor common room.
"What are you talking about Wormtail? Evans is in the girl's tower." James raised an eyebrow, "I'm serious-"
"No, I am." Sirius said smiling as he put an arm around Peter.
"Padfoot, that's getting really old. But I mean, what's happening? I just met Evans in the common room and she was saying that she didn't kiss me this morning."
"Maybe she's in denial." Sirius shrugged and scratched the back of his head.
"Or maybe the Lily from this morning isn't the real Lily." Remus said walking up to the three Marauders. James, Sirius and Peter stared at Remus and burst out laughing at the same time.
"You're mad Moony. Who in their right mind would want to look like Lily Evans?" Peter's squeaky laugh was cut short by James' hand hitting the back of his head.
"No, I'm serious. It could be one of James' obsessive followers. I don't know, or maybe it's someone who wants revenge for something." Remus started listing off reasons, but Sirius rolled his eyes, "or maybe, Moony, it REALLY is Lily."
Remus crossed his arms, " I find that hard to believe." He muttered, earning a glare from James.
"What? It's the truth! She couldn't stand you just yesterday." Remus brushed back his hair and sighed, "Prongs, I'm just saying, maybe you should just, you know, check out the new Lily. You wouldn't want me to be true and find out you've actually been snogging or shagging Retina Zaas."
James sighed and raked his fingers threw his hair, making his hair messier than before, "Moony, you just know how to bring a guy down."
"Shut up Prongs, at least I'm making sure this new Lily Evans really is Lily Evans instead of so manly looking Hufflepuff." Remus rolled his eyes.
"Moony, there are NOT any ugly chicks in Hufflepuff." Sirius pointed out. The four friends made their way to the courtyard talking about Quidditch and their newest prank they were going to pull on the Slytherins.
"Oh James, I was looking for you." Lily's soft voice said walking up to the four boys.
"I thought you were going to take a rest." James said, ruffling his hair.
Lily just smiled, "I was going to, but I couldn't. I was too restless thinking about you." She grinned at him.
"Say Lily, what happened to you overnight? Just yesterday you couldn't stand Prongs." Sirius put an arm around Lily and smiled at her.
Lily blushed at raised an eyebrow at him, smiling playfully, "shut up Black, maybe I just felt like telling him." Lily checked her fingers, "oh you guys, I think I broke a nail, I'll see you later."
The four Marauders stared after the red head.
"That's not Lily." Remus said finally.
"How can you be so sure?" James asked a little hope still clinging to him.
"Seriously Prongs, you've had you eyes on this girl for four years, and you still can't tell." Sirius smirked at his friend.
"No, it's not that. It's just that I- I guess I had a little hope left." James sighed and then smiled, "anyone wanna come with me to find out who it really is?"
"Me!" Sirius hopped up and down and jumped onto James' back. Immediately making the lighter of the two crumble down.
"Get off!" James grunted, struggling under his friend's weight. Sirius laughed and the four friends walked back into the castle. James ruffled his hair and spotted a familiar red head.
"Hey, Evans!"
Lily turned towards the Marauders and narrowed her eyes, "what do you want Potter?"
"That's our Lily all right." Sirius muttered and turned to the red head, "hi Lily."
"What do you want? Are you guys plotting something against me?" Lily asked narrowing her already narrowed eyes at James.
"I wouldn't dream of it." James winked at her, "open your eyes Evans, you look as if you're constipated."
Lily snorted and un-narrowed her eyes, "hey! No running in the hallways!" She yelled at an obvious 1st year. Lily's eyes rested on Lucius Malfoy who was towering over a cowering figure.
"Malfoy, stop picking on the student. 20 points from Slytherin."
"What is this?!" Malfoy growled as he turned around to face an angry Lily.
"What is what?" Lily crossed her arms and looked around Malfoy to see who he'd been picking on. Her eyes grew large. That mane of long dark red hair, the creamy ivory complexion, the dark green eyes framed by dark lashes, and full, pink, pouty lips.
"Hey Sirius, it's your twin fantasy." Peter whispered, making the tall, dark brown haired Marauder laugh.
"Yeah, too bad she's Prongs'."
"I don't belong to quote Prongs unquote!" Lily said, her pretty face was clouded with confusion and annoyance, "can someone tell me why there are two me's?!" She ended up starting the sentence calmly, but ended up yelling in frustration.
"What are you taking about Lily, I'm Lily." The other Lily scowled.
"What are you talking about? I KNOW who I am." Lily matched the scowl.
"Hey! Lily, I was looking all over for you!" Cecilia ran up to Lily, Lucius Malfoy and the Marauders with Arabella running after her.
"Are there two Lily's?" Arabella asked, stopping in her tracks and looking at the two angry red heads.
"I don't know." Cecilia frowned and scratched her head, "are we missing something? Were we hanging out with two Lily's?"
Remus smiled inwardly at Cecilia's puzzled look, and resumed watching the argument between the two Lily's.
"Well, if I'm not Lily who am I?!"
The Lily behind Lucius sniffed, "I don't know. You're probably that stupid Oakland pretending to be me." James smiled and put an arm around the Lily closer to him who immediately smacked his hand off.
"Yup, this ones the real one."
"So, exactly who are you?" Sirius asked smiling goofily at the one standing in front of Lucius.
"I'm Lily." She crossed her arms, "if you don't believe me, just go shag yourself."
Remus rubbed his eyes, "this whole facade is tiring. If you just don't do this ever again, I won't report this to Professor Dumbledore."
"Fine! Don't believe me!" She stormed off down the hall, away from the group.
"Potter, you're stupid fan clubs out to make my life hell." Lily rubbed her eyes
"Aw, don't worry." He kissed her on the cheek and smiled at her, "I'll make sure this all stops."
"Uh, Prongs, I'd run if I were you." Sirius laughed as James winked at Lily and started to run.
"Come here Potter! I'm going to rip off you're ugly little head!" She screamed as she chased after him.
"Yup! That's the really Lily." Cecilia laughed and turned to Arabella, "I wonder who that other Lily was though." Remus just smiled lightly at Cecilia and turned to walk up to the Gryffindor common room when they heard a sharp voice down the hallway.
"Miss Evans and Mr. Potter! No running in the halls! Detention after class today! Seriously Miss Evans, I expected more from a prefect!"
