Chapter Two
In James world on the first day of classes.
Let's put it this way Lily Evans is with out a doubt the most beautiful person or should I say angel on the Earth. When she first spoke to me I think my whole life flashed before my eyes and all she said was "Hi." The passion in that one word. How to describe Lily Rose Evans…Charming, comely, fair, fine, exquisite, lovely and all the above a gazzilion times over.
'Hey Remus is gazzilion even a word?' I called to my dictionary across the classroom.
'No James but you could just invent it.' Remus called back. You see us marauder's were separated in all of classes and sat in different corners but I think we made more of a racket that way. Anyway that's beside the point.
Where was I oh yeah a gazillion times over. You know I really honestly don't have a clue WHY she hates me I am the nicest guy around as well as coming from a prominent pureblood family and I am the best seeker since…OH MY HOLY EFFING GAWD SHE'S RIGHT I AM A SELF CENTERED ARROGANT PRAT!
'Sirius she's right I am a self centred arrogant prat!' I called to my best friend since god knows when.
'Bravo! It took you long enough!' Sirius yelled back and continued to work on his… his whatever it was he was working on.
Where was I that's right she's right I am a self-centred arrogant prat. Why do females always have to be right? No matter what even if the facts prove them wrong they are still right. Oh well continuing on with my obsession for Lily Rose Evans ask me anything and I could tell you the answer.
'Mr Potter what did Eglimelia Prateech do that made her famous?' Professor Baker said. Anything but that.
'Ah…Erm…' I stuttered before she interrupted. Anything except…THAT!
'Well Potter if you studied you would know that Eglimelia Prateech was famous for discovering how to make a love potion using slightly different ingredients from the original potion making now what is
known as a soul swap potion with your soul mate. She discovered this in 1893.' Lily said.
'Thankyou for that very enlightening speech you will now make a milder version which will switch you with your soul mate.' He said and looked at me and shook his head.
'Pairs are as follows, Black & Malfoy, Black & Bulstrode, Lupin & Zabbini, Moon & Snape, Nott & Crabbe, Goyle & Timmens and last but not least Potter and Evans.' The professor said oh well I didn't get paired with Lily Rose Evans. Hang on rewind just a bit.
'…and last but not least Potter and Evans.' Ha damn straight oh yeah uh ha oh yeah uh ha! I got paired with Evans. Shite what do I do um oh yer ruffle the hair and stand up straight and…oh just forget it James. Be yourself and not that annoying prat she thinks you are.
'Right Potter lets get this over and done with.' Evans said marching over.
'Ah okay then um can you pass me the boomslang?' I asked and she basically threw it at me. NOTE TO SELF: Never EVER, EVER, EVER pair up with Lily Evans in potions.
'Now class you shall take you vial's and drink an entire vial it will swap you with your soul mate for ten minutes so have fun while you are in their body but you can…' the professor was interrupted by the bell.
'You must trial the potion tonight. Good day students.' He said and we all ran out of the class and up the stairs because we had the afternoon off.
'Hey you guys look at what I found Lily Evans twenty survival rules.' Sirius yelled running up with a bit of parchment in his hands.
'Well give them back to her.' I said and Sirius smiled.
'Ah not on your life you're usually curious about her okay so here goes…' Sirius said and unfolded the piece of parchment and Remus put his book down and looked at Sirius.
'1. Sarcasm is a virtue.'
'Oh you'd never know.' Remus said sarcastically.
'2. Buffy the Vampire Slayer gets boring after a while but McLeod's Daughter's should be on every day of the week.' Sirius said
'I so agree with that one.' Peter said mousily.
'3. Peanut Butter and Jelly make a good sandwich.' Sirius said.
'This girl is good.' Sirius said.
'4. Red Cordial, Ice-cream and chocolate is the BEST thing for getting HYPED.' Sirius said.
'Agreeable.' Remus said nodding his head thoughtfully.
'5. Chocolate releases the same feeling as sex so be safe and just eat chocolate.'
'Now that I could do.' Peter said making the other two boys who were apparently listening laugh.
'Shanitha Carie is not beautiful in every single way.' Sirius said and nodded.
'Yep that's a given.' He said and continued to read.
'F.I.G. J.A.M. is the best saying ever.' And Remus nodded.
'Yep I have to agree there.' He said and Sirius continued to read.
'Blah, blah, blah.' He kept reading them for then he reached what I thought was number nineteen.
'If you don't play quidditch here's some advice play QUIDDITCH!' he finished and folded up the parchment.
'Sirius that was only nineteen.' I said and looked up at him.
'I thought you weren't listening and no that was twenty.' Sirius insisted.
'No it was not.' I said and looked at him he had guilty written all over his face.
'Oh fine the last one is…' He paused then started to read.
'SiriusBlackisaveragecomparedtoJamesPotter.' Sirius read quickly.
'What I didn't catch that.' I said and he looked at me.
'Sirius-Black-is-average-compared-to-James-Potter.' Sirius said slowly.
'No WAY!' I yelled and snatched the parchment out of his hand.
'Apparently yes way!' I yelled and jumped up and down.
'Do you know what this means I am apparently her crush!' I screamed and jumped up and down again.
'Well I could have told you that.' Sirius said and I stopped and stared at him.
'What?' I said and looked at him disgusted.
'I said I could have told you that.' He said.
'So in all my years as your best friend trying to catch the ever so rare Lily Evans you missed one tiny detail that she actually has a crush on me.' I said sounding like I was going to explode.
'Well, duh.' He said and smiled at me.
'Don't you well, duh me.' I said wagging and finger and putting my other hand on my hip.
'Well, duh.' He said right that's it I thought.
'WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!' I screamed at him.
'Coz you never asked you moronic idiot.' Sirius said and shrugged his shoulders.
'Oh, so now I am asking. What does Lily say about me.' I said calming back down.
'Sorry mate that's classified information.' Sirius said.
'Ummm…no its not Marauder rule number twenty eight states that you can't keep secrets from your best friends if they ask about it.' I said and Sirius looked at me.
'I swore on my magic I would never ever tell anyone no matter what.' Sirius said and I looked at him.
'Well you can live with me and Lily when we get married and have a girl called Rosemary Ann Potter and a boy called Harry James Potter.' I said.
'Um no you can't get it out of me.' He said and I glared at him.
'Fine consider this friendship over.' I said and crossed my arms.
'Potter you are such a prat now give me that.' Lily's voice came and she snatched it away from me.
'Why do you have to constantly snoop in my life?' She asked
'Because I'm curious and it's not like you want to be friends with me.' I yelled
'Well maybe just maybe there is a reason I don't want to be your friend.' Lily screamed and turned on her heel and went to walk away.
'When will you grow up?' I asked rather loudly.
'The same day to save me from the clutches of Voldemort and you grow up.' Lily said and continued to walk.
'Right so all I have to do now is get Voldemort to rock up at school and confront Lily save her and grow up all in the same day.' I said and continued 'Then she will be my friend.'
'In the mean time do you see who I see?' Sirius asked.
'Oh yes I see old Snivelly.' I said.
'So Snivelly old chap how have you been lately?' I asked as Snape walked closer to me.
'Just fine thankyou now if you'll excuse me I have better things to do than hang around the likes of you Potter.' He hissed at me.
'Wow you can string a sentence together.' I said cockily.
'How about I string you?' Snape hissed.
'Good idea.' I said and a ball of yarn started to wrap around him.
'You'll pay Potter you'll pay.' He said jumping or trying to towards the castle.
Six Weeks later
'Deck the halls with bows of holly falalalalalalalalala' I sang slightly off key.
'What should I get Lils?' Sirius mused.
'You get to call her Lils and I'm her future husband my god what is this world coming to?' I said and picked up a box of candy.
'You know she'll send it back to you cursed so when you eat it you turn pink with purple polka dots.
'Yeah but I like turning pink with purple polka dots.' I said and Sirius laughed.
'James old chap you are one strange person.' Sirius said and laughed slightly.
'Sometimes I wonder I really do.' Sirius said and walked toward the ice-mice section of Honeydukes.
