"Hey Lily!" Alex and Alice said one afternoon about a month later.
"Hey Alex. Hey Alice," Lily sat down by the lake. It was Saturday, in October, but it wasn't that cold. "Put the snitch away." Lily said to James. Him and his friends were walking by. He was showing-off his seeker abilities.
James stopped and mounted his broom. "How about you come and make me?" He teased and smiled.
"Accio broom!" said Lily. Her broom zoomed out of a Gryffindor Tower window. She caught it. "Dare to say that again?" She giggled.
"Uh, sure. How about you came and make me?" James smiled again.
Lily kicked off the ground and hovered next to James. "Let the snitch get a ten second head start and then we'll go after it. Oh, and don't hold back Potter."
"Alright Evans, but you do know that I'm the best seeker at Hogwarts right?" asked James, still smiling.
"We'll see about that. Let it go," said Lily.
"3...2...1!" shouted James and they were off. Lily and James were head to head. They snitch dived, so did Lily and James. Lily held out her hand and caught the snitch two feet from the ground! She pulled out of the dive and got off. Everyone was in shock. James landed next to her, mouth hanging in shock.
"And I thought you said you were the best seeker," teased Lily.
"You know how to ride?" asked James.
Lily shrugged. "A little."
"That wasn't a little," said Sirius. "You out flew the best flier ever!"
She shrugged and gave James back the snitch. Then she walked back over to her friends. They were in shock too. Them being her best friends and they didn't even know.
"Where did you learn to fly like that?" asked Alice.
Lily shrugged again. "I taught myself."
"You completely shocked James," laughed Alex.
"Not a lot of people know I fly," said Lily.
"Why aren't you on the team then?" asked Alice.
"Quidditch takes homework and study time away," said Lily.
"Let's go in," said Alice. "It's starting to get windy and cold.?"
"Ok," said Lily and Alex. They got up and went into the castle to warm up in the Gryffindor common room.
"Can you believe that?" asked Peter.
"I didn't know she flew so well," said Remus.
"She doesn't look like the type that can ride huh?" said Sirius.
"Never judge a book by the cover," said Remus.
"Let's go inside," said Peter. They all headed for the Gryffindor common room.
"I think she did it on purpose," James said flopping on the couch.
"What do you mean?" asked Peter.
"So I would like her more than I already did," said James.
"But that doesn't make any sense," said Remus. "I mean, she doesn't even like you. Why would she make you like her more?"
James threw a couch pillow at him. "Geez, thanks for your support." He laughed.
A/N: Well, here's chapter 5! I hope everyone likes my idea of having Lily ride the broom! Most people think Harry got his Quidditch abilities from his father...not in my book... he got it from both Lily and James! hehehe
