Every time I look up,

I see it in your face you wanna hook up with me.

Instead of acting like you're supposed to,

You cop an attitude like you're too good for me,

If I wanted I could take you from your man – with my eyes closed.

I could have you eating out of the palm of my hand,

And all your little girlfriends too.

No you can't get with me, and I don't want you,

Yes I can and I will if I want to.

If I-if I want to, if I-if I want to baby.

Aint nobody trying to clown you,

But you too damn old to play highschool games with me.

Yes you do,

'Cause even when I'm not around you I be hearing from my friends you been asking bout me.

I don't really care how long you been together with your man.

It's just a matter of time,

Before I make you mine.

I wanna make it clear so there's no misunderstanding,

That I get, what I want, when I want.

If I wanted I could take you from your man – with my eyes closed.

I could have you eating out of the palm of my hand,

And all your little girlfriends too.

No you can't get with me, and I don't want you,

Yes I can and I will if I want to.

If I-if I want to, if I-if I want to baby.

If I wanted I could take you from your man – with my eyes closed.

I could have you eating out of the palm of my hand,

And all your little girlfriends too.

No you can't get with me, and I don't want you,

Yes I can and I will if I want to.

If I-if I want to, if I-if I want to baby.

That I get what I want, when I want.

If I wanted I could take you from your man – with my eyes closed.

I could have you eating out of the palm of my hand,

And all your little girlfriends too.

No you can't get with me, and I don't want you,

Yes I can and I will if I want to.

If I-if I want to, if I-if I want to baby.

Usher If I want to

Lily was rather eager to get away from her parents and sister. She had been soundly berated for her episode the night before. In other words, she couldn't wait to get to Hogwarts.

She found Missy, Joan, Sirius, and Remus in an empty compartment, and sat down next to her best friend. When James walked in, she put down her book so she could glare at him.

When James finally found the right compartment, he strutted in. And was stopped mid-strut. Inside were the Marauders, Missy, Joan, and Lily. And Lily was showing a helluva lot more skin than he was used to seeing her in. She was wearing short jeans shorts and a short blue spaghetti-strap tanktop. What surprised him most was the belly ring. It was a dangly ring with diamonds on it that winked in the sun. It shocked him. 'Lily' and 'belly ring' just don't go together.

There was an uncomfortable silence for a minute, in which James was unable to tear his eyes away from the hypnotizing ring. I think she's finally lost it. Either that or she's gained it, hard to tell.

Missy broke the silence. "So, James, have you met my best friend, Lily?" she said with false, ditzy brightness.

"We're –erm- acquaintances."

"Missy, you're worrying me, who are you speaking to?" asked Lily, pointedly looking anywhere but at James. She hadn't yet told her friend about the fiasco of the previous night.

"Ah, Lils, this is my best friend James. He's a ghost. But obviously he still has enough blood in his body to blush," said Sirius, playing along with Missy.

And James was definitely blushing. He still couldn't tear his eyes away from the ring.

"Hate to break it to you Sirius, but ghosts aren't this enthralled by shiny objects," Lily told her friend wryly.

"So you do see him!" said Missy with fake excitement, clapping her hands together.

"Of course I can," Lily's voice was so dry it made you kinda want toast… "How could anyone miss that fat head?"

"Lily, we need to talk because there's something you're not telling your best friend," Missy told her, hands on her hips.

"Fine," Lily groaned, dragging her friend outside the apartment.

"Um, hate to burst your bubble, but won't we get in trouble for being out here while the train's moving?"

"Oh, no," Lily said dismissively. "I'm Head Girl." Missy opened her mouth, which Lily promptly covered with her hand. "Do you want to know James's latest screw up or not?" Missy nodded her head, and Lily related the whole thing. Of course, Missy, being the caring, supportive friend she is, had tears of laughter running down her face by the end.

"Oh my God, you snagged your belly ring! That's priceless!"

Once Lily had calmed Missy down sufficiently, they returned to the compartment, where James had quite obviously been telling the same tale. Unfortunately, 1) he didn't know it was Lily's belly ring that had caused her to scream and 2) he wasn't having as much luck calming his listeners because all three listeners were on the floor, gasping for air.

Lily excused herself and went to find out her Head Girl duties. After patrolling, Lily returned to the compartment. Everyone else had on their wizarding robes, so Lily grabbed hers and went off to change. When she sat back down, everyone was staring at her. Remus and Joan with looks of sympathy, Missy and Sirius with looks like Christmas had come early, and James with a look of utter disbelief.

"What?" she asked, looking from one face to the next.

"Um, Lily…" said Joan.

"WHAT?" Lily was semi-scared now. She looked at James. Then she looked at James. "Oh. Dear. God. No! THISISN'THAPPENINGTOME! WHYISTHISHAPPENINGTOME? What the HELL did I do to deserve this?" Because on James's robes was pinned a shiny new Head Boy badge. This meant that Lily would be living with James for the next year.

Missy and Sirius could no longer control themselves. They burst into uncontrolled laughter, as they seem to do so conveniently often. Remus and Joan hid grins behind hands, and James just stared at Lily's badge.

At least, I HOPE he's staring at my BADGE… But either way, I think I'm gonna be sick!

They soon arrived at Hogwarts, which was really fortunate because Lily was about to climb out the window. She hated her life. Again. No, wait, still.

A/N: Short and sweet, what can I say. Fluffless, that'll come later, don't get too comfortable! Either you're throwing stuff at your computer because that was so short, or you're going 'thank GOD it's finally over! Why the hell am I reading this, anyway? It's damn boring!' Either way, I'M SORRY, DAMMIT! Does that make you feel better? Oh, and I worship the ground my reviewers walk on. I'd die without you guys! There, that's my fluff for this chappie! grins evilly I know it's not fair, but who the hell said life was fair?
