Summary: Yada yada yada, Lily & James's 65th year at Hogwarts, yada yada yada, he loves her, she hates him, yada yada yada. Its your basic love/hate, LE/JP story. Read & Review, pls.
WARNING! This story involves too much matchmaking, and a lot of talking and/or flying pie.
As the sun hit the pinky-orange clouds, and birds flew overhead… An angry former-red head let out a howl of anger. She stomped down the stairs, and into the Gryffindor Common room. It wasn't until she heard several catcalls that she realized she was still in a towel. The shook her head, and carried on towards the murmuring group of 5th year boys, and smacked them each very hard on top of the head.
"Ow!"
"Ow!"
"Ow!"
"Hey Lily, wanna date- OW!"
"Turn it back instantaneously!" Lily cried, stepping forwards, and causing James to take a step backwards.
"Only if you date me!" He cried.
"What are they talking about?" Shannon O'neil, Lily's closest friend, asked Remus.
"James dyed her hair green again." Shannon nodded, and Remus sighed.
"When will he learn…" Remus said.
"They just aren't cut out for each other." Shannon replied.
"Well, you cant blame him," Remus said, "I mean, she's pretty, and smart, and funny, but he has to take a different approach."
Shannon looked up at Remus, and smiled inwardly. He has sweet to stick up for James, and, well, kind of cute. But Shannon didn't think she felt that way about him. He was like her brother.
But being a girl, Shannon came up with a crazy idea that only a girl could. But she didn't have time to tell Remus, because someone crashed into her. Two someones, in fact, Tomika Randshaw, and Patricia Biddle. Patricia was famous for liking Sirius Black, and Tomika for liking James.
If my plan is going to work, Tomika will be crushed. But she likes a bunch of guys, right? She even finds Remus and Sirius attractive. That girl has even liked a Slytherin once! He was the one who dumped her…
"Hey," Tomika said, brushing dirt off her slim body, and flipping her purple hair. Lily, who was busy lecturing James & Sirius (who were not listening, and placing another card on their game of exploding snap whenever she looked away).
"-And furthermore," Lily cried, "It is completely unfair to dye someones hair green, when you know they are applying for advanced DADA today! This could RUIN my chance of getting in!" She stomped her foot, and slapped James.
"Lily," Sirius said, "I think its time for me to fess up. Im the one who dyed your hair. James had nothing to do with it." Lily, outraged, slapped Sirius once, and james three times.
"What was that for?" James cried.
"How could you let him take the blame? Could you just be honest for once?" She stormed out of the room. Sirius shrugged and said, "I don't know how she does it, mate." James shrugged too.
"I guess that's a no on the date?" He asked.
Shannon continued her plotting, and finally had a perfectly formed idea. But for it, she needed Remus's help.
"I'm hungry," She said, "I'm going down to the kitchens, would anybody like to come?"
"Im starved!" Sirius cried. "Me too!" James roared. Patricia and Tomika, not wanting to leave Sirius and James, followed them. Peter, not wanting to leave his crush Patricia, left, too. Remus got up to go, and Shannon pulled him back down.
He gave her a funny look.
"I need your help." She said. Remus, who was completely in love with Shannon, was more than happy to help her out.
"Yeah, sure Shannon- how?"
"Before I tell you," She said, "You have to agree." Remus thought to himself;
Well, it's a bit of a risk to promise, like the time I promised for Sirius, and he made me drink toilet water… But this is Shannon, and she wouldn't never do something like that… So I guess im safe.
AN Not as good, pls review.
