Confessions

           With new teachers and classes, sixth year flew by. James however, kept himself as far away as possible from Lily so she never spoke to him.

          After 2 months in Hawaii, Lily returned to Hogwarts for her 7th year at Hogwarts as beautiful as ever with a light tan, and a few freckles to add to a blinding smile.

          On Platform 9 ¾, hundreds of kids and parents were gathering around to say their goodbyes for the next few months. "Bye Mum, Daddy." I'll miss you." Trying to hold back tears, she kissed her parents and Petunia (who made a face of disgust and pushed Lily back). She walked backward towards the train waving to her family and accidentally bumped into somebody she didn't recognize, but he smelled familiar. She looked down and turned around, she lifted her eyes as she apologized and saw James. He grew taller and became incredibly handsome. His hazel eyes danced and his jet black hair was as untidy as ever but there was something about him… He helped Lily up and her heart fluttered.

"It's nice to see you smiling Lily." He flashed a smile 

"It's nice to see you got some manners, Potter." she said

"Hello to you too." He frowned and got on the train.

Lily gathered her belongings and made her way to the train. She found Alexis on the platform.

"Alexis!!" she called. Alexis hugged her.

"Long time no see! I missed you tons!" Lily said.

"Your tan is beautiful! How was Hawaii..."

 They got on the train and found Giselle and Sarah saving a compartment for them. They sat down and spoke about their vacations, school, and guys.

"I heard James became really hot. Lily, what's going on between you two? No romance? I heard that he was also in Honlulu." Giselle asked.

"I didn't see him there. Better for me, he would have spoiled my vacation. But I did bump into him a while ago, he did grow taller and he looks cute." she replied.

"Correction: he looks HOT!!!!" said Sarah

"Whatever…"

She sighed and thought about how she acted towards James. "No, he made your life a living hell for 6 years, at this school- no wait 5 years, where was he last year? He's obviously up to another one of his practical jokes and trying to suck up towards you."

          "Hey man! How's life treating you?" Sirius and James were on the Platform holding their belongings and discussing their summer.

          "I'm okay, how was your summer?" James asked.

          "Fine, I saw Giselle a few times at Paris, we got together… How's Lily?"

          "I dunno what Remus was talking about; I bumped into her today, for a minute she smiled and then, well, I don't really want to talk about it." James shrugged.

          "Take your time…" Sirius replied. On the train, they met up with Peter and Remus. After looking through nearly every full compartment, the Marauders made themselves comfortable in the last one.

Sarah prattled aimlessly about her vacation and how she met so many of her "hot" cousins. The compartment door opened, and the Marauders entered. Sarah ran to Remus and planted a kiss on his lips.

          "I missed you so much how are you?" she asked.

          "I'm fine, how are you? I hope nobody took my place at the Caribbean."

          "Of course not! How could you say that!" She winked at him than kissed him. Remus and Sarah continued talking and snogging each other at the corner of the compartment. Peter sat himself at a different corner of the compartment took out a pillow, stuck his thumb into his mouth, and drifted off to sleep. Sirius sat down next to Giselle and they began talking (or flirting if you will take into account that Giselle kept on fluttering her chocolate brown eyes at him). James sat a few feet away from Lily. "Good," Lily thought, "Keep AWAY from me!" But without Lily realizing, he kept inching his way towards her.

          The 8 hour train ride was incredibly tiring and within 2 hours most of the compartment was asleep, but of course, except for James and Lily. James was looking at the view from the window, and Lily was reading a book, struggling to keep herself awake.

          "What's it called?"

          "Hmm?" Lily looked up.

          "What book are you reading?" asked James.

          "Jane Eyre. It's a muggle book, you probably don't know it." She handed him the book.

          "Actually I enjoy muggle literature. Have you read 'A Tale of Two Cities'?"

          "No, I read romance." He handed the book back to her. She went back to her reading and James looked back out at the window.

Slowly, Lily closed her eyes and without realizing, laid her head on James's shoulder (who was now only a quarter of a foot away from her). Despite James's astonishment, he quickly took out a blanket and covered Lily.

          "Lily, James, wake up." They both yawned. "Lily, James UP!!! We're 5 minutes away from the castle." Sirius and Giselle pocked them and they finally woke up. Lily looked at James and realized that her head was on his shoulder and his head on top of his hers.

          "EWWWWWWW!!!!!!! POTTER!! GET OFF ME!! What are you doing sleeping right next to me and sharing the same blanket! Who do you think you are! You were slee- UGH!" Lily yelped.

          "Sorry Lily. I didn't mean for that to happen. And for your information you fell asleep on me. But just for you to know, I would never do that on pur-"

          "Potter, get away! I really do not want to hear it." Lily snapped.

          "Peter, Remus (Sirius and Giselle made their way to the castle together), I'll see you at the castle. Excuse me ladies." He looked at Lily and left the compartment.

          "Finally, the sorting is over!" Lily exclaimed. Everyone was anxious to hear who the new Head Boy and Girl are.

          "Before I announce the new Head Boy and Girl, I have a few announcements to make. First and foremost, all 1st years are forbidden to go into the forest," Dumbledore said.

          "Yeah, yeah we know!" muttered James.

          "Mr. Filch has also asked me to say that whoever will be caught with Dungbombs will be punished by a month's cleaning of their Common Room. Now, I would like to ask James Potter and Lily Evans, our new Heads to see me after the meal. Let the feast begin!" Food magically began filling everyone's plate. Lily's jaw dropped open. She stared at James, his eyes were dancing.

          "Oh no, no, no, no, no! Hell no!!!!!!!!!!!! I am absolutely not going to put up with him. This is my last and final year here and he will absolutely NOT ruin it for me!!!!!!!"

          At Dumbledore's office Lily objected. "Professor, there must be some kind of mistake. I mean this is Jam—"

          "Lily dear, I believe there is no mistake, his excellent grades and behavior over the past year prove that he should be Head Boy. You will meet once a week and discuss any ideas that you have. During the day you will be patrolling the halls and if you see any students doing any activity that is against the rules of this school you must deduct points from their house, even if they are Gryffindors. You have your own private bathroom on the 7th floor- the password is mermaid. You are dismissed."

Lily went back to her dormitory. Sarah was asleep, Giselle was in the Common Room (and she had a very good idea what she was doing), and Alexis was reading. It was late at night and the view from her room overlooking the lake was as beautiful as ever. Lily thought about James.

          "James became extremely handsome," she thought, "It's a shame that he's so snobby." She got ready to sleep and lifted her blankets. On her bed sheets she found a large bouquet of white Lilies and a note.

          "Surprise form someone arrogant." Alexis said.

 It was written quickly, but the handwriting was soft and careful. She read:

Dear Lily,

I am incredibly sorry about today. I would never,

never do something like that do dishonor you. I ho-

pe you can forgive me. Let me make it up to you.

Meet me by McGonagall's office tomorrow at ten.

James

          She sighed, "Maybe not as snobby," she said. She fell asleep and saw herself in a beautiful white silk gown dancing with someone, but she couldn't see his face. Suddenly her fantasy melted into a high-pitched cackle and a shot of green light. She woke up breathing heavily and sweating.

A/N: I know this is incredibly obvious but you MUST use you imagination to picture this story and the characters; For example, picture Remus and Sarah as Brittany Murphy and Ashton Kutcher; Giselle and Sirius as Sophia Bush and Chad Michael Murray (with darker hair), or something like that. I know, you may think that the fact that James smelled good is corny, but it's better than him having bad B.O. or smelling like AXE, and this "smell" of him will be mentioned again, (hint, hint, HINT!). Yeah, you probably didn't get it, you'll see…. Isn't it ironic that LILY fell asleep on JAMES? Please, PLEASE R&R! I need at least 10 more reviews, otherwise, I'm not sure I'll continue.

Notes to my reviewers:

 SEVEN SALTED FRENCH FRIES thank you for your review but if you want to know who Og is, read my notes, they will tell you who he is. LEHA- I know what 'sardonic' means, otherwise as you said I wouldn't use it. She was being sarcastic when she was talking about the number of adjectives she has for him compared to Alexis. And the point is that Giselle and Alexis ARE NAMES- in fact Alexis comes from Alexander which was a name used way back when and Giselle is in German. So just because you live in a world where the only names are Chelsea and Amanda, doesn't mean there aren't any other names out there. And that scene that you said was plagiarized, um I don't know if you have noticed but that is why I wrote DISCLAIMER in the beginning of my story.

Thanks to all my other reviewers: Black and Potter, JEARK Potter, marauderbabe289, Helga, sambrat, freesoul15, and mymagic!

Love Ya'll!
