A/N: Okay, so the name of this chapter could rank in the top ten of Really-Bad-Names, but it was the only thing I could think of that would fit the chapter. Well, not forget to R&R! ENJOY :)

Summery: A/U What if Lilly Evans wasn't Miss. Perfect? What if she had a twin? Lilly Evans and her twin, Linzey Evans, have just transferred to Hogwarts from another magical school. They're in their second year and quite the troublemakers. James Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin—the Mauderers—are in their second year at Hogwarts (Peter isn't in this fic) when two beautiful transfer students arrive. They're in for a surprise when the new students threaten their position of "troublemaking kings". Then James falls in love with one of their new enemies…The fun begins.

Chapter Five: Liking, Cornering, and Trying Out.

Lily's P.O.V.

I walked over to where the Marauderers were sitting. Ray had just asked me to see if Remus Lupin liked her. Liz took her off somewhere to get her 'ready'. Or at least that's what she said. I always have to do the hard work, but as a good friend I was going to ask him. Not that I wanted to have anything to do with the Marauderers, but Remus is pretty much sane. Plus, I could use this as my advantage—annoy that prat of a Potter.

I like never call a guy by his first name unless I actually like him, which is saying something if I do. Since Remus is okay I call him by his first name. Anyways, it annoys the heck out of Potter.

"Hey, Remus, can I talk to you for a moment?"

Hearing me, Potter looked up from his food. Whether it was surprise, hurt, or dislike in his eyes I don't know—or care. But, his eyes are so— Wait a second! What am I talking about? Potter's eyes? I'm defiantly going crazy! Oh, Merlin!

"Um, Yeah." Remus scooted over on the bench to make room for me.

"alone" Potter's eyes grew wide. Black just kept on stuffing his mouth with food. Gross. Remus looked over at the two.

"Er. Okay."

I smirked at Potter; he probably thought that Remus had won me over. Prat. Remus followed me out of the great hall. Once we were out of hearing distance I tolled him what was up.

"Do you know who Rachel Taylor is?"

"Um, is that the girl who always hangs out with you and your sister?"

"Yep."

"Then yes, I do." He seemed to be getting a little excited.

"Well, er… I don't know how to go about this."

"Just spill, Lily."

"Fine. Rachel wants to know if you'll go out with her."

"Go out with her?"

"Yep."

"Of course! I've liked her since the beginning of last year! I just didn't have the courage to ask her out."

"Really?"

"Yes."

"Well, great! So, um, she's waiting for you down the hall and to the right. Have fun!" I patted Remus on the back. After making sure he went to see Rachel, I headed back to the Gryffindor common room. Unluckily, Black and Potter had tried to find Remus and me. I bumped into them; they cornered me. Great, just great.

"Where's Remus." Black pulled out his wand, and Potter followed.

"Beats me. Why don't you go ask him? Oh, wait, you don't know where he is…how sad."

"Evans, its two against one, so tell us. We know you know where he went." Potter said. Two against one? I don't even have my wand out. What makes them think that I want to fight?

"I said that I didn't know. Why are you so worried about him anyways? Seriously, he's alright."

"Well…because! And how do you know if he's alright or not?"

"Because! Now get out of my way! I would like to get ready before Quidditch tryouts, thanks."

"Sorry, no can do. Not until you tell us where Remus is." Potter said.

My temper was rising. Maybe I should look into anger management classes. "If you move, Potter, I'll go out with you."

"Really?"

"Heck no, now move!"

Black spoke up, "Like we said, we'll let you go if you tell us where Remus is." Didn't they get that I didn't know where Remus went? Potter and him started moving forward until I bumped into the wall. It was then that I felt the secret door. I gave a quick smirk to the two Marauderers, opened the small door, and took off. Potter and Black followed.

Coming out of the tunnel I bumped into something solid. Looking down, for I was on top of it, I saw that it was Liz. What a happy surprise. I quickly got off of her.

"Black—Potter—coming—tunnel." I managed to get out. Liz understood and pulled out her wand. I did the same. When Black and Potter came out of the opening, we were ready.

"Hello boys." Liz said.

I smirked. "Corning a girl isn't the way to her heart, Potter. I thought you wanted to go out with me."

We didn't get to hex them, sadly. They went back into the secret tunnel and ran for it. Oh, well. Liz and I can prank them after tryouts.

QUIDDITCH TRYOUTS

James' P.O.V.

Oh, I've waited for this moment since the day I left for Hogwarts. I was standing at the end of a 4-person line of wannabee seekers. They didn't stand a chance. I was going to get the seeker position. A seeker, keeper, and beater position was open.

I looked around at the others trying out. Beside my line where the keepers, and my view turned to the front of the line-Lily Evans. The girl I had liked since the moment on the train when I first saw her. A troublemaker with an attitude, perfect girlfriend material. Now she was getting even more perfect when the captain asked her to position herself at the goalposts—she liked Quidditch? Now lets see how good she is.

Lily flew up in the air like an angel. She arrived at the goalposts and the chaser started shooting the quaffle. She was perfect—she saved 5 out of 5, and not one of them was a close save. At that moment I found myself falling farther into the pit of Lily Evans.

Not one of the other keeper wannabees was as perfect as her. One saved 4 out of 5, but just barely. Lily Evans was the new keeper. And with this announcement I was even more determined to get on the team.

Next were the beaters. Sirius did absolutely perfect. Gosh, I hope he makes the team! But then the night went downhill. Lily's sister was up in the air, trying out for beater. Of all the places, beater. At this time I snuck a look at Sirius, whose face was screwed up in a mixture of surprise and nervousness. Uh-oh. Lily's twin flew into the air and did just as good as Sirius. It was going to be a tough choice.

The already picked team decided to wait until the end of the tryouts to decide who would be the next beater. I looked up in the stands at Sirius and gave him a reassuring smile. But, my glace quickly changed to Lily, who was glaring at me like I was the reason her sister wasn't picked. Seriously. If I didn't like her I would have gone up there and hexed her. I just glared back and returned to watching the tryouts. Soon enough it was the seekers. Joy.

I was so nervous when it was my turn. The thought of Lily Evans in the stands glaring at me didn't help one bit. Really, it just doubled my nervousness. The feel of the wind on my face quickly changed that. I was the fasted one to get the snitch—which didn't surprise me one bit. Turning to go into the stands with the rest of the team, very excitedly, I glanced over at Lily and thought I saw a faint smile form on her face. But, then again…she was glaring at me. It was time to pick the beater.

After the team, excluding the newly picked bunch, huddled up to decide the captain spoke. "Unfortunately there is only one beater spot open, but there is two good beaters in front of me. So, we have decided that the one not picked will be an alternate in case a beater from the team gets hurt. And our new beater is…Linzey Evans."

WHAT? Evans got the spot instead of Sirius? What were they thinking? I looked over at Sirius. He was bummed. I am too. I was looking forward to him being on the team with me. And for a split-second I hated Lily Evans. But only for a second. Maybe Sirius and I could prank them…it'll make him feel better.

Unfortunately, the Evans Twins got to pranking first…

Thanks everyone for all the reviews!
