I don't know what it is about her that I like so much. She's stuck up, she criticizes everything I do. I mean when we met in first year I though she was pretty and all, and she was a cool person to hang out with and stuff, but ever since I became a marauder and started pulling pranks on people, all she did and all she does is get mad at me. She's driving me crazy now. And to add to my list she hates me. I watched her sit down with Amanda. She was sitting two rows in front of me and a table to the left, so I had a perfect view of her without making it obvious. I watched her laugh with Amanda before going back to her miserable self. I noticed she did that a lot, she tried to cover up her sadness yet she always seemed sad.
"Mr. potter, is there anyway I can get your attention?" Professor Mcgonagal asked
"Sorry Professor" I said quickly. I watched her pace back and fourth across the room. I could understand what she was saying though; it was like she was speaking in a foreign language.
"Prongs, you ok man?" Sirius asked me
"Yea I'm fine," I said.
"Ok" he said in a disbelieving voice. He turned back to his paper. I looked over at it and saw a note from Remus, what Remus had written disappeared and Sirius wrote on the paper. Then that disappeared and Remus' writing started to appear again. We had learned how to do that in third year. You could write a not to someone and it would appear right on their paper, then all they had to do was write back on the same paper your note had appeared on. It was a simple charm but no body or not a lot of people knew about it.
I looked back over a Lily. She was intently watching the professor speak. I found it funny how Sirius or I never studied yet we had the top grades in all of our classes, next to Remus that is. And Lily always studied and paid attention yet she still had lower grades than us. She glanced back at me, most people would turn away quickly but I still watched her and looked into her eyes, she quickly turned back to her parchment and I turned back to… well I took out a piece of parchment and started to write. The bell rang and I left with Sirius, meeting up with Remus and peter
"What was with you in class?" Remus asked
"Nothing, I'm just really tired," I said
"So what are you going to do about Mrs. Evans?" Sirius asked
"Nothing, I think I'm just going to stop," I said
"Stop what?" Remus asked
"Stop annoying her" I said
"You're still going to talk to her right?" Sirius asked
"Yea" I said
"Lets just go eat," I said walking ahead of them towards the great hall.
Lily's point of view, still in class
I watched the teacher pace across the room. I was listening to her, but also thinking about things, I glanced back at James and saw him looking at me. Our eyes lock for a few seconds before I turned back to the notes I was taking. Through the corner of my eye I still saw him looking at me before he turned his head towards Sirius. The bell rang and I walked with Amanda to the great hall.
"Anyone there?" Sirius asked sitting across from me.
"What, oh sorry" I said looking at him
"What are you thinking about?" Sirius asked
"Things" I said. Everyone was at lunch now
"Things like?" Sirius asked
"Things like school" I said avoiding the subject.
"That's a big subject," He said
"Just shut up," I said shoving a roll into his mouth.
"Good food" Sirius said chewing a bite off of the roll. Remus, James, Amanda and I laughed
"What's going on?" Peter asked
"Nothing" I said
"A little touchy about our thoughts today are we?" Sirius asked
"Is that ok with you?" I asked
"No actually" He joked
"Aww I'm sorry," I said.
"Come on, tell me," He said putting on a puppy face
"Sorry, I cant. Want a bone?" I asked hyperly. James almost spit out his food
"Very funny" Sirius said
"Potter you ok?" I asked
"Fine" He said coughing
"Anyway…think were going to have the same assignment in potions tomorrow." I asked
"Probably seeing as how he's going to give those gits extra time" Sirius said
"He favors them so much" James said
" It sucks," I said
"Well at least your partner doesn't flirt with you the whole entire time" Remus said
"Remus?" I asked
"Yea?" He asked
"Are you gay?" I Asked. He spit out his pumpkin juice
"Hell no, that's just wrong" Remus said
"Well you have a pretty girl flirting with you, and yet you have a problem with it" I said
"I just don't like Ann, at all" He said
"Oh ok" I said breathing a little lighter now.
" Change of subject needed" Sirius said
"Quiditch" James said quickly
"When are we playing captain?" Sirius asked
"Not quite sure yet" James said
"Who are you playing?" I asked
"Hufflepuff" Sirius said after James didn't answer
"You guys will definitely win," I said
"Look I have to go" James said looking at me. he gave a small smile and left
"Sirius, what's up?" I asked
"Nothing much" He answered
"No I mean what's up with James?" I asked wondering
"He's just tired, no sleep last night," Sirius said
"Oh ok" I said still thinking to myself, he's still acting weird. I mean he can go a week without sleeping and still have his charm. Wait Why do I care so much about the way he is acting?
"Lils you there?" Sirius asked
"Yea, just thinking," I said
"About what?" Sirius asked. I stuffed another roll in his mouth got up and left.
"Can't even ask questions anymore," Sirius said. Remus just shook his head and laughed. He got up and left
"What?" He asked Amanda. She too got up and left
"What?" He asked again before he got up and left.
The portrait swung open and I walked into the common room. No one was there except James, I walked by him expecting him to grab me or something, but he didn't, he just stared into the empty fireplace. I kept walking and went up to the girl's dormitories. I switched my books and laid down on my bed for a minute, until I remembered I had classes
James' point of view
I Watched Lily walk past me and up to the dorm, though I didn't let her see. She came back down a minute later. I tried my hardest to keep my eyes strait but couldn't help it and looked back at her
"You going to class?" I asked
"Duh" She said walking out of the common room. I followed
"What class do we have now?" I asked knowing the answer
"What?" She asked
"What class are we going to?" I asked
"Your telling me you dont know what class we have, that you're just walking," she said. I noticed that, what I had said made me look stupid but I didn't care, it was the only way to start a conversation
"Yes, yes I am" James said
"Herbology" Lily said
"Oh yea, do you like herbology?" I asked
"James?" She asked. She called me James, yay!
"Yes?" I asked
"Did you hit your head on something?" She asked
"No" I said
"Then what did you do?" She asked
"What do you mean?" I asked
"Nothing, you're just acting weird," She said
"Sorry" I said. She picked up on speed. I think I was starting to freak her out
"whats the rush?" I asked
"Just don't want to be late" Lily said
"Were going to one of the firsts ones there anyway" I said
"so" she said
"whatever" I said walking with her. when we got to class the only ones there where Sirius, Remus, peter, and Amanda.
"There you are" Sirius said
"did we worry you?" I asked
"yes you did" Sirius said
"Will you stop acting like an adult" Lily said
"Will you stop running away" Sirius asked
"What the hell" I asked
"I don't know" Lily said
"Either do I" Sirius said
"And you think I'm weird" I said to lily
