A/N: This chapter takes place in the home of James Weasley, it's another short chapter, but the next chapter takes place at King's Cross, so hopefully should be longer.
James Potter was sitting in his bedroom, talking and laughing with his best friends Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. "This is our last year guys. What are we going to do when we leave Hogwarts this year?"
Sirius shrugged. "Run away as fast as I can since I plan to be an auror and my family wants me to be a Death Eater."
James laughed. "You could come live with us! Well, I plan to propose to Lily Evans, that's for sure."
Sirius rolled his eyes. "I can see how that goes." Mocking James, he said. "Lily Evans, I have loved you since the day we met. Will you marry me." He then took on a higher pitch. "Not on your life James Potter!"
Remus and Sirius fell over laughing, but James just rolled his eyes. "Just you wait and see boys, I'll get Lily Evans if it's the last thing I do."
Remus smirked. "The boy has ambition, gotta give him that one."
Sirius sat up. "Ambition is better when it's something achievable. Come on James, just about every girl wants you... except Evans. Why don't you go after one of the other girls."
James glared at Sirius. "Because I want Lily. I don't want any of the other girls... and I don't give up."
Sirius raised his hands in mock surrender. "Alright, fine." He said, "Don't come crying to me when she says no again."
"Oh, I won't come crying to you, I won't come crying at all." James said confidently. Just as he said that, three owls flew inside James' window and dropped letters near James, Remus and Sirius respectively. Sirius picked up the one lying near him. "Hogwarts letters." He said.
James picked his up and tossed it onto his desk. "Nothing new, it says the same thing we have gotten for the past 6 years." As the letter landed on his desk, it made an odd clunk.
Sirius looked at the letter curiously. "Are you so sure about that, man?" He said as he glanced at the letter.
Remus sat up as he heard the sound. Could it be He thought.
James got up and walked over to the desk to pick up the letter. He leaned against the desk to open it. As he opened it, he pulled out the letter and supply list. Then he pulled out the item that had made the sound. It was a badge and it said Head Boy across it. James just stood there in shock. Could he have really earned the priveledge of Head Boy? He looked at the other two boys.
Remus smiled. "Congratulations." He said to James.
James smiled as a realization struck him. If he was Head Boy, maybe he could use that to prove to Lily he really had changed. He pulled out a piece of parchment and began to write his daily letter to Lily.
"Hey!" Sirius called. "What are you doing?"
"Writing a letter to Evans." James said, "what did you think? I was writing the school to tell them they made a mistake?"
Remus smirked. "Don't tell her in a letter, Potter. Wait until we get on the train and she finds out. Then we can see her reaction.
James smiled, Remus had a point. "Alright, no more letters to Evans for the rest of the holiday." He said wondering if he could actually stand by that.
Sirius stood and walked over to James. "Do you really think you can do that?"
James looked at Sirius, he read my mind. What do you think? I'm that obsessed with her that I can't stand another month or so of not writing to her? He rolled his eyes.
"That's exactly what I think, James. You've been obsessed with her since our first year, and every summer, you've sent her letters every day until we've returned."
James smiled. Sirius was right, James was head over heels in love with Lily. He really wished she could see that and he hoped he could make her see this year.
