Lily quickly found Janet and Katie, as she didn't think she could stand another
minute of Potter. Even though he hadn't done anything arrogant, his stupid fan club
followed him everywhere. "Hey guys," Lily said when she found them at the Gryffindor table. "Hey Lil" they replied "what's up?" Lily asked. "Oh well ya know, nothing new". "Cool I guess" Lily said. Then it happened Lily saw the guy she had liked since 5th year, Aaron Schmidt. He was cute, smart, and polite. As he came closer Lily felt as though her heart was going to explode. Then he sat down next to her, "Hey Lily how was your summer?" he asked. "Umm" is all Lily could say "oh that great, was it?" he replied. "Well I wanted to ask you something, I was wondering whether you um, like wanted to go to Hogsmeade with me?" he asked her. "Yeah sure of course I will go with you" Lily said excitedly.
At that the first years piled in the great hall. When they had all been
sorted. Dumbledore gave his usual start of term speech, when he was done the
plates were filled with food. "Prongs pass the potatoes here will you," Padfoot said as he had inhaled all the food that was already on his plate "yeah sure" James said. But he was to intently watching Lily and Aaron talking to realize what Sirius had said. "PRONGS potatoes please" Sirius yelled at him. "Yeah what did you say Sirius" he replied. "James what is wrong with you?" Peter said as James hadn't touched his food. Lupin the only one who could tell what was wrong with him simply replied "Prongs it's nothing probably a simple chat." "So that's what's wrong with you, it's her," Sirius had finally caught on, and said it with disgust. It was a known fact that Sirius had not liked Lily as she tended to be a know it all sometimes.
"Padfoot, just because you don't like her, doesn't mean we all don't," James
glared at him. "All I'm saying is you could do so much better than Evans, and she is so annoying, what do you see in her?" Sirius asked. "Just shut up both of you" Wormtail said. "Fine" they both said. Pretty soon they were talking about quiditich again. Since both of them were on the team, they were talking about new practice routines.
"I would like to inform you that our new head girl and boy are Lily Evans and
James Potter. Also Mr. Flich, the caretaker has asked me to tell you that a list of all forbidden objects in the castle, is posted in his office. Lastly, no students are allowed in the forbidden forest. Well it's pretty late now, so if I could have a word with the new heads, you should all go to your dormitories". As everyone made their way out, James and Lily made their way toward the front of the hall to speak with Dumbledore. "Hello Mr. Potter, Miss Evans I Just wanted to tell you a little more about your new positions. As you know there is a special dormitory for heads and I wanted to tell you where it is located, and the password. It is located on the third floor behind the house elf statue. The password is wizard's chess. I hope you enjoy it, the house elves have worked all summer to make it perfect. So I will see you later." "Yes sir" James said.
As they made their way up to the third floor James wanted to ask Lily what
she and Aaron had been talking about, but he decided not to because it would sound to nosey. "So here we are," Lily said as they had just reached the house elf statue "wizard's chess," James said. The statue moved aside to reveal a gorgeous room of all red and gold coloring. It had oak desks with top of the line quills and parchment on them. And a fired and two chairs that looked like the comfy kind and a couch that looked all squishy. On opposite sides of the room were two doors. One said Lily in a delicate cursive type of writing on bronze, and the other said James in bold handwriting. They both went into the rooms labeled with their names on it.
In Lily's room was a king size bed with red and gold silk sheets. There was
also a huge wardrobe, another oak desk, and a bathroom just for her. In the bathroom was a huge bath tub, more like a hot tub with a life size mirror and counter tops made of marble. James' room also had a king size bed, but his sheets were made out of Egyptian cotton. They were also red and gold. His room had quiditich posters all over; he had a dresser instead of a wardrobe though. In his bathroom was a huge bath tub, and a large cabinet to hold all his hair styling products. He needed to get his hair to stay like he just got off his broomstick.
"Oh my, Dumbledore out did him self," Lily said gleefully. "Yeah he did, these
rooms are awesome." "Hey do you know when the first Hogsmeade weekend is?" Lily asked. "Um yeah, its next weekend, why?" "Oh I have a date with Aaron." "Oh," James said sadly. So now he had missed his chance to go to Hogsmeade with Lily, she already had a date. Probably after they went together they would start going out, he had lost his chance, at least until they broke up. Lily didn't seem to notice that James had gone silent, or that he looked sad. "Well I think I'm going to head towards the Gryffindor common room," James stated. "Oh hold on, I will go too Potter. I need to talk to Katie and Janet anyways. James hadn't intended to have her come with him as he felt as though she had just ripped out and thrown into the trash can.
