What You Get For Messing With Lily

Lily was walking down the hallway thinking.

"Hey babe." She heard a familiar voice behind her.

Lily froze.

"Oh no. Not now. Please not now." She said quietly, praying he would walk away.

"What's up flower?" James asked putting an arm around Lily's waist.

Lily cringed and pushed the shoulder off.

"How 'bout you come with me to Hogsmeade?" James asked putting on the Potter Charm and showing off his famous lopsided smile.

"How 'bout no." Lily said in a fake sweet voice and walked away.

"Come on Lils!" James said catching up to the redhead.

"It's Evans to you!" She said getting frustrated that he was still following her.

"Alright Evans. Why won't you go to Hogsmeade with me?" James asked now walking side by side with her.

"Incase you haven't noticed, I have a boyfriend." Lily said.

"Well, you can just dump him." James said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.

"Maybe I don't want to." Lily said, her hands turning into fists.

"Why not? You know you want me." James said grinning. He knew he was getting to her and that would make it for him to get her, but it was so tempting.

"Potter I would rather go out with the Giant Squid than even think of going out with you!" Lily yelled turning very red.

James could've sworn there was steam coming out of her ears. But he didn't have much time to look since she came charging at him, her hands in fists.

"Oh crap!" James said and started running.

Meanwhile, two boys were walking around the hallways.

"You know Wormtail, I think you can't lift the feather with your wand because you're saying the spell all wrong. Say it again." Remus said.

"Wingardium Leviosa!" Peter shouted doing the movements he learned in first year.

The feather blew up.

Remus flinched.

"It's not Wingardium Leviosa, it's Wing-gar-dium Levi­-o-sa." Remus said.

Peter blinked.

"There was no difference." Peter squeaked.

Remus just shook his head.

"It still surprises me how you managed to fail that assignment when we learnt it in our first year!" Remus said.

Peter shrugged.

They were about to take a turn when a raven-haired boy came running past them.

"She's gonna kill me! AAAAAAHHH! Run for your life!" James said running as fast as his legs could take him.

Two seconds later, a very angry redhead came running behind the raven-haired guy, who Remus and Peter identified as James.

"I HATE YOU, YOU BLOODY GIT! YOU CONCEITED, BIGHEADED, STUPID…" Lily said running.

Unfortunately, Remus and Peter couldn't hear the last part of what the redhead, who they identified as Lily, was saying because she was too far away. Either that or she finally got James. Remus hoped it was the first reason. God knows what she will do to the poor guy.

Peter started to feel sorry for his friend. But he knew that if he did something, he would probably be in the same position as James, knowing Lily. So all he could do was pray and leave Lily to do whatever she was going to do on James.

James kept running and looking behind him once in a while. He saw Lily was right behind him and started running faster. He turned his head to see where he was going and collided with a brick wall. At least that's what he should've done, instead he went right through it.

Lily, too preoccupied with catching James, did the exact same thing he did and fell right on James.

"I always knew you'd fall for me." James said, though he was squished and could barely breathe.

"Eww! Eww! Get off me!" Lily said hitting him.

"Oww! I'm not (ow) on you (ow)! You're the one (ow) on me! Oww! Lily! STOP!" James said grabbing both Lily's arms. He was getting really annoyed now.

"I can't get off you because I'm not on you. You need to get off of me." James said once she had calmed down.

"Oh." Lily said sheepishly.

"Where are we?" Lily asked.

"Like I'm supposed to know." James said.

"Well, you're supposed to be the guy who knows all the secret passageways and stuff about Hogwarts." Lily said matter-of-factly.

"Fine I do know. But I'm not sure we can get out—"

"What do you mean we can't get out! I can't be stuck here forever! Especially with you!" Lily started freaking out.

"Lily! Please would you let me finish. And what's wrong with me?" James asked.

"If I told you all the things that are wrong with you, I'd be here for days." Lily said crossing her arms across her chest.

James sighed.

"You have to wait for another Marauder to come." James said finally.

"Why another Marauder?" Lily asked.

"Because we're the only ones who know how to get out of this." James said.

"Well can't you tell someone that walks by?" Lily asked curious.

"No. Because it's too complicated." James said frustrated

"How is it complicated?" Lily asked.

"You ask too many questions." James said.

"Tell me!"

"Fine. If you say so. First you have to say this password. Then you have to tap on these four bricks. Then you find the second one to your right and you pull it out. Then you reach in and take some dust. Then you blow it on the other three bricks. Then you take the brick that you pulled out and replace it with the brick you tapped farthest on your left. And you take the brick that's farthest on your left and—" James stopped when he saw the confusion on Lily's face.

"See, I told you it was too complicated." James said.

"How did you guys find this out? It's not an ordinary secret passage thing. I've never heard of anything where you take out bricks and replace them with others and blow dust on them." Lily said still very confused.

"Actually you first blow the dust and then you replace the bricks." James corrected.

"Whatever." Lily said.

They started talking about who their favorite teacher was. About 10 minutes later they could hear Remus yelling at Peter about paying more attention in class. Lily and James immediately ran towards the wall and started banging on it.

"Oi Moony, Wormtail! Help!" James yelled.

Peter got startled and jumped about ten feet in the air.

"Prongs? Mate is that you? Where are you?" Remus said being the smarter and wiser one of the two.

"Remember in 3rd year when we went through a wall. And in order to get out we had to do some complicated things." James said hoping Remus would remember.

"Oh yeah! That's when Padfoot started freaking out and we had to send him to Madame Pomfrey he had freaked out so much." Remus said recalling that day.

"Err… yeah I guess. But can you get Lily and me out of here? Please?" James said not exactly remember the part about his best mate freaking out.

Remus put on an evil smile. Lily could almost feel him smiling.

"You and Lily eh?" He asked.

"Yes." Lily said cautiously.

Oh no. She thought.

"No." Remus said calmly.

"WHAT!" James yelled.

No answer.

Remus had left.

"I can't believe him! That bloody git! That son of bi—"

"Hey Potter! Since I'm stuck with you in this place for merlin knows how long, at least try to keep it G-rated. I'm really not in the mood for your type of vocabulary right now." Lily said.

"My type of vocabulary?" James raised an eyebrow.

"Yes. Now leave me alone. Accio book." Lily said. Once she had the book she started reading.

After 20 minutes James started getting bored playing finger puppets.

"What are you reading?" James asked leaning forward to see her book.

She snatched it away from him.

"None of your business." Lily said.

"Jeez. Someone woke up on the wrong side of bed this morning." James said smirking.

"I'm sorry I have to do this but…actually scratch that…I'm not sorry I have to do this. I'm actually pretty happy I'm doing this." Lily flicked her wand and said, "Silencio."

"Now that's one less headache." Lily said satisfied.

James on the other hand wasn't as happy as Lily was.

He sat back with a very grumpy face. He mouthed the words "I hate you" to Lily but she just smirked.

Remus was sitting on a couch in the common room. Tori came down in her pajamas, sat on the couch across, and yawned. She wasn't a morning person.

"Happy birthday Tori! You're seventeen!" Remus said coming over and hugging Tori.

Tori look confused for a second then her eyes widened.

"Ooooh yeah! I can't believe I forgot!" Tori exclaimed.

"I can't either." Remus muttered under his breath.

Tori smacked him on the arm in a friendly way.

"Oh yeah. I almost forgot. I have to get Prongs and Lily out of that secret passage thing they're in." Remus said getting ready to leave.

"They're in a secret passage thing?" Tori asked looking surprised.

"Yeah. I wouldn't let them out. They're lucky it's your birthday." Remus said smiling and walking off.

Lily was sitting and reading her book.

James was stabbing a piece of paper with a drawing of Lily Evans on it.

Lily furrowed her eyebrows.

She took the piece of paper he was stabbing, stared at it for a moment, then wrote something on it and handed it back to James.

James read it. It said:

Are you good at French?

James replied on the paper, seeing as he can't talk.

Very.

Lily looked at it and smiled.

Good. I need you to read this paragraph to me. I can read a little French but I'm not very good.

James replied again.

No.

"What?" Lily asked.

James crossed his arms and shook his head. Then he took the paper and wrote on it again.

Only if you let me talk.

Lily hesitated for a moment. Opened her mouth. Then closed it. She did that a couple times until she finally decided to take the spell off. She really liked the book and need to know what that meant.

She said the counter-curse and gave him the book. He had a huge grin on his face like Christmas had come early. Very early.

I get to read to Lily Evans. Never thought I'd live to see the day I read Evans a book. James thought.

He started reading. Once he was done with the paragraph, he gave the book back to Lily. Lily grabbed for her wand to put the spell on James. Unfortunately, James had her wand, so she couldn't do anything to him. She frowned and went back to reading.

As long as he gives it back before we get out, if we do, and doesn't take advantage of it.

James just put the wand down, where he could see it and paid close attention to it just in case.

"Prongs I'm here to rescue you. If it wasn't Tori's birthday, I'd have kept you in there longer." They heard a familiar voice on the other side of the wall.

James jumped up and yelled, "YES!"

Too bad the room was too small. He ended up hitting his head on the ceiling and his "YES!" turned into "YEOW!"

"Yeow?" Lily asked raising an eyebrow.

James shrugged.

"Half yes and half ow." He replied.

After saying a password, some tapping, blowing dust, and replacing bricks, Lily and James finally managed to get out of the small area. Immediately James started kissing the floor of Hogwarts. Lily and Remus just stared at him.

"We have to get ready for the party. I'll be taking her to Hogsmeade since her boyfriend wants to be a part of the surprise." Remus said. He wasn't exactly happy about that, because he wasn't that good at keeping a secret. See how his werewolf secret turned out. His friends found out about it, not long after they met.

Tell me how it was. Thanks a lot for the reviews! Keep reviewing! Oh and I finally found out what James was (I had to reread the first Harry Potter book). And now…for the moment of truth…James Potter is…a Chaser! Thanks JinxTwix you were right. I'm changing him to a Chaser.
