"We should skip class," Sirius said.
"Yea I'm sure the professor wont notice all five of us gone" Remus said sarcastically
"Yea" James said
"Wait how'd we get five?" Sirius asked
"Peters going to wake up soon" Remus said
"Oh ok" Sirius said
"Yea, let's wake him and go to breakfast," James said
"Ok." Sirius said. They walked up the stairs and five minutes later came down with a full dressed very sleepy peter. They seated them selves in the great hall. Lily came in with Amanda a few minutes later.
"Morning Amanda" Remus said
"Morning guys" she said
"Morning" the other three said.
"Where's Jean?" Lily asked. And if almost on queue Jean sat down next to Amanda.
"So you must be Jean," Sirius said
"Yea" jean said
"We heard so much about you" James said
"Really?" Jean asked looking at Amanda
"Don't worry, most of it was good" Sirius said grinning
"Most?" jean said
"Yea, she let some things slip but other than that" James said
"What?" Jean asked. But before Sirius said anything Amanda practically lunged at him
"Tisk tisk Amanda, don't deny the truth," James said
"I'm going to kill you," she said
"Wow two death threats in one month. Go James" Sirius said. James looked over at Lily who was smiling
"I don't believe you two" Jean said.
"You should. They're telling the truth," Lily said smiling at James
"So what has she been saying about me?" jean asked
"Only small little things. Like your breath and your" Lily started but was cut off by Sirius putting his hand over her mouth
"Shh don't tell Amanda's secrets" Sirius said
"No come on tell me," Jean said getting a little annoyed. Amanda was banging her head against the table
"Jean, do you know who we are?" Sirius asked referring to him, James, Remus, and peter
"The marauders?" he said
"Exactly, and what do we do best?" Sirius asked
"Prank?" he said
"Exactly, what do you think were doing now?" James asked
"Your messing with my mind aren't you?' he asked
"Yup" Sirius said
"But what about lily?" he asked
"She's in on it" James said
"You guys really know how to fool someone" jean said
"Our pleasure" Sirius said. Amanda was still banging her head against the table
"Amanda..." Sirius said lifting her head
"I am still going to kill you," she said to both of them. Then looking at lily
"Come on jean lets go" she said leading him out of the great hall. Lily, Remus, James, and Sirius started to but out laughing.
"That was the best," Remus said
"HE actually believed us," Sirius said
"Great work lils" James said
"Glad to help" she said. They locked eyes for minute then she looked down and blushed
"Going back?" he asked
"What do you mean?" she asked
"With not letting me look into your eyes?" he said
"Oh, I guess its just habit" she quickly covered
"Lily?" he asked
"Yes James" she answered. He ran his hand through his hair
"Will you go out with me?" he asked. Lily heart sank.
Lily's point of view
No! No! No! He did not go back his old self. No! I thought he changed. For one year I thought he wasn't going to ask me out! For one year I thought he actually hated me, and I liked it.
"No" I said and quickly left
"That went well," Sirius said.
"You think?" James asked
"I'll go after her," Sirius said
"No this is between me and her," James said standing up and running after her.
I ran up to the girls down and threw myself into my pillow, and cried. I didn't know why I was crying. I just had to cry. Why did he have to change back? Did he even change at all? Why did I smile at him? No! STUPID! STUPID! STUPID!
Narrator's point of view
"Lily?" James asked walking into the bedroom.
"Go away potter!" lily said
"Ah so I'm back to that name now" James Said
"Just go away," Lily said
"I can't do that," James said
"Why not?" she asked sitting up on her bed
"Because I care about you too much" he said sitting next to her. She got up and walked away but he got up and grabbed her. Her face was about two inches from his.
"You can't care that much" lily said
"Why not" he asked
"Cause you asked me out" lily said
"Shouldn't that say that I care about you more?" he asked confused
"Not when you date girls for fun," she said
"Lily, I really like you." James said
He leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips.
"No James!" lily yelled turning her head
"I don't believe you," she said
"Lily you have to believe me" James pleaded. Lily tried to break free of his grasp
"I can't!" she yelled
"Why not?" he asked
"Because, because all you want to do is get me into bed" lily said. James let go and she ran down the stairs.
"Lily!" he yelled chasing her.
"That's not true Lils," he yelled. He ran right into Sirius
"Ow" Sirius said as they both fell to the floor. He got up and helped James up
"What did you do James?" he asked
"I kissed her," he said
"You What?" Sirius yelled
"I like her ok... I won't lie to you anymore. I like her." James said
"I KNEW IT!" Sirius screamed
"Ok, ok you were right, now help me find her" James said
"Well what happened?" Sirius asked
"I told her I liked her. Then kissed her, and she said all I wanted to do was seduce her," James said
"Well that's a little harsh" Sirius said
"I know" James said
"Ok you take this hall, ill take this one" Sirius said pointing down the hallways
"Ok, meet up with you in twenty" James said
"Ok" Sirius said. They both dashed down the halls, unable to find lily. Until finally they both gave up and went to the common room.
"Any luck?" James asked as Sirius came into the room. James, Remus, and peter were on the couch.
"No" Sirius said
"I explained to Remus and peter," James said
"Good" Sirius said
"So no one has seen her?" Remus asked
"No" Sirius said
"And you looked in the dungeons?" James asked
"Yup" Sirius said
"Weird" peter said
"Where else could she be?" James asked
"I don't know" Sirius said
"Me either" Remus said
"Just great" James said
"Why was I so stupid?" he asked
"I thought the same exact thing when I kissed her" Sirius said
"Now Remus has to kiss her and see if he's stupid" peter said. James, Sirius, and Remus looked at him like he was three years old. (And not in the aw how cute way)
"Shut up Peter" James said, and Peter listened.
"Well I'm going to bed," Peter said
"Me too" Remus said. Sirius sat down next to James on the couch
"Night" all four said at the same time. After about an hour Sirius went to bed. James still sat in the same spot on the couch until about two am. That's when Lily walked in. she tried to walk right by him but wasn't very lucky.
"Lily!" James yelled grabbing her wrist.
"I don't want to talk about it!" she said breaking his grip. But she stayed there
"Well I do" James said
"Well that sucks for you now doesn't it" Lily said turning away but James was quicker. He grabbed her again, and this time held on to her.
"Look, I've tried everything to get you these last few years" James said
"Yea like sleeping with every girl in the school and them dumping them is going to make me want you," Lily said
"I thought it would make you jealous" James said
"James! Stop making excuses" lily said
"I'm not!" James yelled. Little did both of them know, Sirius and Remus were sitting on the stairs watching them
"She so likes him" Sirius whispered to Remus
"I know" Remus whispered back
"How am I supposed to trust you?" lily asked
"I don't know. You just have too," James said
"No James, I really don't" Lily said trying to break his grip
"You're not going anywhere," James said holding her
"Go James!" Sirius whispered. Just loud enough so only Remus could hear
"You can't keep me here forever, at least not standing up" Lily said
"Fine" James said. He picked her up and carried her to the couch. He placed her on the couch and sat next to her, still holding her wrist
"Better?" he asked
"No" Lily said
"Well I'm not going to take you to my bed" He said
"Good" Lily said
"Fine we'll just stay here till morning" James said
"Fine" Lily said
"How long till they both fall asleep?" Remus asked
"Bet you five they'll fall asleep in less that an hour" Sirius said
"Deal" Remus said. They shook on it and watched them in silence.
