----------Why did I fall for your charms?----------
"Yeah rubber glue back to you Potter" I said ignoring the hand he shot out for me to grab and instead scrambling up off the floor by myself and brushing myself off hurriedly. I looked up at him. Why was he so bloody tall? Or why was I so bloody short? No, there's no need to contradict myself, just him. As I said, why was he so bloody tall? I looked up at him and him down at me. I didn't like the way he looked down on me, as though I was below him or something.
"So Evans, I see you are also taking Ancient runes, am I correct?"
"For about the first time in your life Potter yeah" I grumbled trying to push my way past him.
"Oh Lily do stop pushing me I do get rather ticklish you know" He said smirking, looking as though he was not going to budge any time soon.
"Then just move out of the way Potter because I do have a wand and I am not afraid to use it on an arrogant ass like you" I said in a deathly whisper.
"And once again Lily, I'm shaking"
"Look Potter, I've had enough of all your mind games and crap, just let me through the god damn door!" I roared. He looked slightly taken aback for a moment but then regained a cool and collected posture.
"I will Lily, if you just go on one tiny date with me" He said spacing his fingers about a centimetre apart to show just how tiny he meant.
"I would rather go on a date with my great aunty Gladys, who by the way has bunions, the size of your head and halitosis that could kill" I said darkly. He smirked.
"Oh Evans, I didn't know you swung that way" He smirked.
"Oh you're despicable" I spat.
"Then again you being a lesbian has possibly made me even more attracted to you" I rolled my eyes and kicked him so hard in the balls he crumbled to the ground clutching them, a look of indescribable pain on his face.
"Now Potter, if you want to be able to make children when you're older I suggest you don't cross lines with me again. Got it?" I didn't bother to wait for a response and had already sat down and got out all my books by the time he hobbled back into the class room at the beginning of the lesson.
"Open your books to the beginning of chapter 4 class" Our teacher Professor Smithy drawled, scratching the chalk against the black board and making an awful screeching noise against its surface.
I covered my ears with my hands and looked around the class room, many others were following suit. I spotted Daisy in the corner of the class room and smiled at her. She smiled back and winked at me. Then I spotted Potter and glared. Oh how he made my blood boil. How could I ever like a boy like that?
I took the occasional note as the teacher droned on about nothing in particular. I was amazed actually that this was such a popular class. I suspected it had something to do with the amount of well paying jobs you could get if you took the class. I don't even like runes much; I find them very…boring.
I looked around me. Half the class was asleep, including Alice and Sandy who had fallen asleep on each others shoulders. I saw Sirius drooling over his parchment and Potter attempting to arouse him. (Oh no, I should never use that word when I talk about James again!) He was using his quill to poke him. Sirius snorted loudly and scratched his head, but didn't flutter an eyelid. Peter was watching with awe along with Remus who had stopped scribbling down notes franticly in his notebook.
James slipped suddenly and the quill got stuck in Sirius ear. He shot up and looked around groggily before falling straight back to sleep. James sniggered silently as he fished the quill out of Sirius ear. I expected the quill could have gone right in one ear and out the other, seeing as there wasn't anything in the middle to stop it.
I looked away from the Marauders to look at a couple of Ravenclaws making out at the back. It was disgusting; their bodies were so entangled that you could barely see whose body parts were whose.
Shivering I looked away from them also. My gaze fell on Richard Jenner. He was one of Frank's friends, a Hufflepuff. He was tall and dark skinned. He had short black hair and warm deep brown eyes.
I started to get butterflies; I had always had a secret crush on him but had taken it no further as I knew Hannah also liked him. I sighed to myself. What sort of friend would I be if I asked him out? A bad friend. Though…why was I the one who had to keep it all locked up? I had liked him just as much as her, why couldn't I have him?
Because he doesn't like you that's why you stupid cow. I told myself…then I began to argue with myself.
You don't know that, and you don't know if he likes her either.
Oh shut up conscience you're all ways bugging me.
And you're a boring person, go on live a little, take your chances with him.
NO! I've told you all ready, I just can't.
Fine then, but if you don't go for that Jenner boy than at least give that Potter kid a chance. He isn't a bad looker that one.
No he's not…
So what's the problem?
I just don't like the way he's a jerk to everyone, and the way he thinks he's better than everyone else.
Maybe he's just a little self conscious.
Potter? Self conscious? I don't think so.
Fine then, be a sad lonely spinster for the rest of your life.
Hey I am not a spinster!
Spinster, spinster!
Shut up!
Spinster!
"I AM NOT A SPINSTER GOD DAMMIT!" I bellowed, and then I groaned. I did not just day that out loud did I? O gawd how will I ever show my face in public again.
"That's all very well Miss Evans but since when did the form of communication between the Romans and Scots have anything to do with being a spinster?" Professor Smithy drawled looking rather amused.
"I'm not sure Professor, but since when did the form of communication between the Romans and Scots have anything to do with Ancient runes?" I asked smiling sweetly. The class burst into laughter and Professor Smithy gave me a teeny glare before turning back to his black board and continuing with the lesson.
----------------------------------------------------
I was so glad the lesson had finished finally that I didn't wait until he had dismissed us before standing up and leaving. After all he couldn't really keep us in at lunch could he?
I hovered outside the classroom for a moment until Alice came out arms linked with Sandy, Jenny, Hannah and Daisy trudging along behind them.
"That was a brilliant come back Lils" Alice said laughing. She linked my arm and we walked down to the Great Hall for our lunch.
"I do try" I said smiling.
Us Gryffindors sat down at the Gryffindor table and Jenny and Hannah sat at their own.
"So I've got…Charms next" I said smiling, "how about you?"
"I thought Charms was this morning" Alice said taking a sip of pumpkin juice from her goblet.
"I guess they've got two classes for this year" I said scanning over my time table.
"Oh well, I've got a free period" Daisy said smiling.
"Lucky bitch" Sandy muttered under her breath.
"I shknow" Daisy chuckled, mouth full of mashed up food.
"Oh yuck, please close your mouth when you're eating" I grimaced looking away.
"Shorry" She mumbled, wiping her mouth.
"So Sandy what have you got?"
"Well let me see…hmm Muggle Studies" She said happily.
"But Sandy, your dad is a muggle" Alice said giving her a 'what's the point of taking a class that you already know all about?'
"I think I know" I said smirking.
"No you don't" She said hurriedly, blushing.
"Oh yes, I see now too" Alice said laughing.
"Just shut up will you" She mumbled.
"What? What is it? Am I missing something here?" Daisy said looking in turn at each of us.
"Two words Dream"
"Professor Shepherd" Alice finished, smirking.
"No it's not!" She said defiantly, "It's just an easy class to take is all" She said hanging her head.
"Oh Sandy, don't tell me you like Professor Shepherd" Daisy groaned, smiling slightly.
"Look I don't ok so just back off will you" She huffed and folded her arms against her chest.
"Oh Rogers looks like your knickers are in a right twist, want me to adjust them for you?" Sirius asked walking past. Him and the rest of the Marauders sat down beside us.
"As lovely as that offer isn't I'm perfectly fine, thank you very much" She glared at him and unfolded her arms.
"What are you doing here anyway?" I asked them, eyeing them suspiciously.
"What does it look like we're doing Evans? Sitting down and eating of course"
"Then again you girls wouldn't know about that would you? Seeing as you girls are anorexic" Potter said raising an eyebrow.
"Except Sawyer over there, who eats like a farm animal" Daisy looked at him and stack her middle finger up before continuing to eat her ham sandwich.
"More like she eats farm animals"
"Shut up Potter or you'll be the one starting farm animals, what the hell is your beef with us?"
"Dearest Evans, we have no beef with you, we just wanted to wish you a Happy Hanukkah is all" Sirius said smirking stupidly.
"Was that supposed to be a joke Black because it was about as funny as my great aunt Sally's funeral" Sandy said darkly.
"Ok, ok no need to get all, serious" He said.
"No you're serious" Potter laughed stupidly.
"Oh yeah" He said also laughing. I wondered why it was that Remus and Peter never seemed to talk much when around Black and Potter, I supposed even they didn't find their jokes very amusing.
"And for the record Black I am not anorexic" Alice said sticking her tongue out at him.
"Ok Alice a bit late for that now isn't it" I said rolling my eyes.
"So, I couldn't get a word in edge ways at the time" She said playing with a plate of spaghetti.
"Sure you're not Powder Puff; wanna show us your stomach just to prove it?" Sirius said winking.
"You make me sick Black"
"And you make me horny" He said grinning.
"You lot are gross, do you boys ever think about anything other than sex?" Daisy asked, finally stopping her eating.
"Nope" They said at the same time grinning like stupid bloomin Cheshire cats.
All four of us girls rolled our eyes. Something we did frequently as a group.
"You girls sure do roll your eyes a lot don't you?" Peter squeaked.
"So, is it illegal now?" I asked.
"No, I was just saying" He said looking slightly flustered. I rolled my eyes again.
"Well don't" Sandy said, still a little annoyed at the whole Marauders sitting next to us thing.
"Aren't you going to make a smart comment Remus?" Alice said, giving him a pointed look.
"Nope" He said simply, grabbing a piece of chicken off a bowl in the middle of the table.
"See at least one of you isn't a sexist pig" I said, nodding at Remus.
"Moony's just tired, he can be a right sexist pig too, the way he goes on about that Turner girl- 'oof', ouchies Moony what was that for?" Sirius stopped short, rubbing his side. Remus looked at us then back to him. "Oh right, was I not supposed to say anything?" Sirius asked stupidly. Oh how I wanted to smash him in the back of the head sometimes.
"So you've still got a thing for Jenny then Remus?" Alice said smirking.
"No" He said looking down and hurriedly buttered a piece of bread. Sirius mouthed a 'yes he does' to us and we all smiled a little. We continued our lunch in an uneasy silence. The Marauders didn't seem that bad company, but this didn't stop us being deadly enemies.
"So, Potter just out of interest what's your next lesson?" I asked, praying that he wouldn't say Charms.
"Charms" Damn it, I knew he would.
"Oh…and you Black?"
"Same"
"Remus, Pettigrew?"
"We all have charms" Remus said. I was officially dead. I couldn't express just how ecstatic I was that Jenny would be there with me also.
"By the Evans, why do you call Remus by his first name and the rest of us by our last?"
"Because you're all arrogant, stuck up, pond scum whilst Remus isn't" I said twirling spaghetti round on my fork.
"Oh…well I suppose that's ok then" Sirius said smiling happily. I rolled my eyes and continued stabbing at my plate with my fork, attempting to get at least one string of spaghetti to lift from the plate. Alas I had no luck and gave in to having a tuna sandwich.
"So Evans how about I walk you to Charms then?" James asked running to keep up with mine and Jenny's fast walking.
"No thanks Potter, I'm perfectly capable of walking by myself" I said shrugging him off.
"But I could carry your books for you" He said trying to win me over.
"No thanks, I'm sure you would just make Remus carry those as well" I said, speeding up my pace.
"Look Evans, you're all ready making this hard enough as it is, what's a man to do?" He asked sounding desperate.
"A man would have to treat me like a woman and not a piece of meat, you on the other hand are not a man, and therefore you can do nothing at all to win my affection" I was literally running now and even Jenny had to race to keep up with me.
"Ok Lily he's lagging behind us now, you can finally stop" Jenny said when she finally caught up with me. She fell against me panting and I had to prop her up against a wall to keep her steady. "I didn't know you were that fast by the way" She said laughing.
"Well neither did I before I knew James Potter was following me" I laughed also.
"His hearts in the right place you know" She said, regaining her strength, "His attitude just sucks" We laughed a little then continued to our lesson wanting to get a good seat away from the Marauders.
"So Jenny" I said casually, "I know something you don't know" I teased poking her in the arm.
"What is it?"
"Well if I told you, you would also know, there fore it wouldn't be something I know but you don't it would instead be something I know and you know, you know what I mean?"
"No, in fact I think you just spoke another language" She laughed cocking her head to one side and furrowing her eyebrows.
"Ok in English I said, I'm not telling you" I stuck my tongue out and hit her with my bag whilst running away hysterically for the second time that day.
"Get back here Evans" I could hear her laughing, she was chasing me up the corridor and I got to Professor Flitwick's just in time. She skidded across the floor on entering and she fell on top of me so we ended up in a heap on the floor.
We were laughing so much I got a stitch.
"Look Padfoot, I think there wrestling, we got here just in time" Potter smirked, standing in the door way.
"Yeah Prongs, all they need now is a mud rink and they're all set to go"
"Don't suppose you have any popcorn?" Potter asked, obviously finding himself very amusing. I flashed a look at Jenny, but she wasn't looking at Black or Potter, she was looking at Remus and Remus at her.
"Come on Jenny, there's a bad smell around here" I grumbled getting up and holding my hand out for her to grab. She looked up at me and grabbed it.
"Yeah, let's get out of here" She mumbled taking a seat near the back of the room.
I looked back at Remus to see him looking down, a painful expression on his face. I didn't pity the poor boy, after all he was extremely talented and privileged, but I did sympathise with his lack of self confidence. Maybe hanging round with Potter and Black would do him some good after all, their over excessive amount of self confidence might rub off a bit on him.
"Today 6th years we will be working on the vanishing spell, Evanesco. Now the hand movement for this is quite tricky so watch me carefully. Swish, loop, swerve and flick" The little Professor squeaked from behind a pile of books.
"Sorry sir we can't see you very well behind that large book there" Potter patronised.
"Well Potter I can't see because of your big head blocking the class room" I said giving him a pointed look.
"Oh ha ha Evans how original" I rolled my eyes and focused back on the tiny Flitwick who was sidling round to get to the front of the book.
"That better for you Mr Potter? Not that it will make any difference seeing as I'm sure you won't get the incantation anyway" He said looking at him with a sly face on.
I laughed abruptly along with a couple of other students.
I got the spell on my first try and managed to make my quill, text book and desk invisible. I wished I could make Potter invisible, but then I thought about what Potter would do exactly if he was visible. I shuddered at the thought and went back to turning my wrist watch invisible.
