Chapter 3
The Marauders were sitting at the Gryffindor table, eagerly awaiting food. Alcohol and partying has that effect on people. The sorting was finally finished, and Dumbledore began his speech. None of the Marauders were really paying attention to the speech, until something caught their attention…
"Students are also reminded that any 'partying', no matter how innocent or not innocent it is, is not allowed on Hogwarts grounds. Like, for example the Hogwarts Express."
The eyes of all the Marauders showed amusement, and Sirius couldn't help showing a slight smirk.
"So, I will give out the custom detentions to the Marauders, like every year, and I plead that it doesn't happen again. Your detentions will be served on Saturday night at 8:00 with Rubeus Hagrid. With that said, tuck in!"
Dumbledore waved his arms and tons of food appeared before them. Roast potatoes instantly replaced Sirius' smirk.
"I wonder what detention will be this year," Remus wondered aloud.
"Hopefully it doesn't involve hungry creatures with sharp horns like last year, for James' sake!" Lily smirked.
"How was I supposed to know that you and Nicole put chocolate frogs in my pocket!" James asked angrily. Nicole looked away innocently while Lily started a conversation with Madeline about potions. Everyone smirked while peter chuckled,
"Don't worry, Lily will save you!"
Lily turned a deep shade of crimson.
"I was drunk…" She muttered before returning to her conversation with Madeline.
After dinner Lily and the other Gryffindor prefect, George Lutz, showed the first years to Gryffindor Tower.
"Daffodil" Lily said, and the first years stared in awe as the portrait of the fat lady swung open to reveal a hole in the wall. As soon as they were all inside, Lily went straight to her dormitory to decorate and gossip with her friends, while all the guys went to their dormitory to talk about quidditch and girls.

3 IN THE GIRLS DORMITORY… 3
The girls talked endlessly about Lily kissing James, much to Lily's embarrassment, and much to another girl's disappointment.
The girls' other roommate, Kathy Smith, was often ignored by her roommates, probably because of her attitude towards Lily. Kathy hated Lily because of James Potter. James was obviously in love with Lily Evans; Kathy could see it, probably because she herself was in love with James.
Kathy had strawberry blonde hair that hung limply to her shoulders. She was about 5'3'' and she had boring greenish-bluish eyes.
"So, was he good?" Nicole asked Lily slyly.
Of course he was, thought Kathy, he's the perfect guy! Kathy rolled her eyes.
Lily reddened slightly.
"Come on guys, lay off Lily for a while, bring it up in front of her parents later!" Sarah grinned.
Lily looked up extremely alarmed, while Nicole and Madeline howled with laughter.
Sarah got up and hugged Lily.
"Don't worry Lil, no kiss-and-tell for Miss Evans tonight, or later," Sarah said with a smile.
Sarah was the sensitive one, almost everyone that met her was instantly her friend, and she was just a good person.
"Well," said Nicole getting up, "I am very anxious to decorate this room!"
The girls all agreed, and totally attacked their dormitory. The room never knew what hit it!
One Hour Later…Each girl had bed sets in their favorite colors.
Lily's blankets were emerald green, and her pillows were violet, two colors that none of the girls could find good together, except for Lily. But that was Lily... she was the strange one.
Nicole's blankets were bright red, and her pillows were bright orange. She also had a small bright yellow pillow in the shape of a sun. These colors showed off her bright and warm personality.
Sarah's blankets were white with elegant black flower designs, and her pillows were black with the same white design. They suited Sarah, they were classy yet casual at the same time, and very friendly colors.
Madeline's blankets were lime green. She also had neon pink sheets and pillows that had a lime green 'M' embroidered into them. Madeline loved bright and outgoing colors.
The girls had also painted the walls of their room bright blue. The walls were plastered with memories, like awards, photos, concert tickets and notes they had written to each other over the years. They had conjured a bright purple carpet that had black swirls in it. The room totally suited the girls, especially because they had broken about 70 school rules to get it was way, and especially because Kathy refused to let them touch anything near her bed.
O IN THE BOYS DORMS…O
James Potter was completely silent, thinking. We all know about what.
Peter Pettigrew was sorting through his trunk, desperately trying to find his wand. Forgetful little thing.
Sirius Black was bouncing up and down on his bed, talking on and on about quidditch.
Remus Lupin was pretending to listen to Sirius, but his mind was on a girl, and the letters she had sent him during the summer.
George Lutz' mind was on a girl that was in love with another guy. Normal teenage boy stuff you say, but this was different. For George at least. For those of you who don't remember George Lutz, he's the male Gryffindor Prefect, Lily's counterpart. He also happens to be the roommate of the male marauders. He was a strange boy… he had wild dark brown, almost black hair, and on days when he was looking particularly peaky and creepy, his beard was grown in a bit. The Marauders never talked to him, because he didn't seem to like any of them. The truth was, the only one that he didn't like was James Potter. He was merely annoyed with the rest of them for hanging around with the arrogant prat. James didn't know why George didn't like him, but there was a big reason. A huge teen-love reason with red hair. It was the girl that James had obviously charmed into loving him. The girl that George loved.
"So, quidditch captain prongs, how much of a chance do I have of making the quidditch team this year?" Sirius asked, interrupting George's thoughts.
"About as much chance as you have talent, Padfoot. I can't let you on the team just because you're my best mate, you'll have to beat out other people for the position." James replied.
Sirius widened his already bulging eyes and pouted slightly.
James rolled his eyes.
"Your puppy dog eyes may work on the ladies-"
"Like Nicole…"Remus smirked.
"-But not on me."
"Care to make that literal, prongsie?" Sirius grinned.
The marauders all looked confused, until Sirius transformed himself into a huge black dog. The dog walked to James and put his front paws in his lap, and looked at him with pleading eyes.
"Whatever, Padfoot" James said as he pushed the dog off him. James got up and grabbed his broomstick. He was going to go flying to get his mind off of Lily. He walked out of the dormitory without another word, and out to the quidditch pitch to be alone with his thoughts, and his broomstick.
A/N
No sexual innuendo, really, it just kind of happened that way, when my friend pointed out the whole broomstick thing…and the George and Kathy thing wasn't planned, until my friend mentioned it, and I had to call George 'George Lutz', haha.
