Disclaimer: Ok…not a lot of reviews…I'M VERY ANNOYED! Oh well. Thanks to the people who DID review! Got A LOT of hits (72 to be exact!), but NOT a lot of reviews. U MAKIN ME SAD! Anyway…I'm taking the advice of one of my best friends…Victoria…but I can't tell you what I'm doing! DON'T REVIEW IT VICTORIA, OR I WILL STRANGLE YOU! You still have to review…but don't mention anything! I'm OUT!
A/N: I'm not totally out, cause I'm out when you finish reading and REVIEWING (!) my story. BTW…this chapter gets very confuzzleing because I go from both the perspective of James and the perspective of Lilly.
What did I do in a previous life to deserve THIS!
"JEANNE! LILLY!" Victoria, another one of Lilly's BESTEST friends screamed. Victoria was waiting in a compartment, and Jeanne and Lilly had just boarded. "OMG!" Lilly screamed. She hadn't been able to see Victoria all summer because Victoria was in Rome all summer. "Wow…Girl, you look GOOD!" Remus said jokingly to Victoria. Victoria was a normal weight, tall, brunette beauty. (Ew…I did NOT like writing that part!)Victoria and Remus have made fun of each other since second year, but Remus was right about one thing…she did look good. She had gotten the perfect tan over the break. "Oh thank you. You're not looking that hot though." Victoria said with amusement. Lilly and Jeanne laughed hysterically, but James broke up the laughter. "So…who wants to come with me to my compartment for a little fun?" James said. "YOU'RE SO NASTY POTTER!" Lilly shouted at him. "I was only gunna play magical cards with them…come down Evans! Why do you think the worst of me?" James said. He smiled at her, and flipped his tangled hair back. "That was hot…WAIT, what did I just think! Get hold of yourself Evans…I mean Lilly!" Lilly thought to herself. She could NOT have a crush on James Potter…the most EGOTISTICAL guy since Jack Ternate…the world's best seeker from the 19th century. TUUT TUUT! The train started. "Oh well…I guess we should go get changed Evans." James said. "I'M NOT CHANGING IN FRONT OF YOU!" Lilly screamed at the top of her lungs. James blushed because everyone on the train opened their doors to see what was happening. "I just meant into our Prefects robes. We need to show the new Prefects what to do…remember." James said in close to a whisper. "Oh…sorry." Lilly whispered. She felt really bad. She embarrassed herself and James. Even if he did have feelings for her at one time, he wouldn't like her anymore. "You blew it ya big dummy!" Lilly thought to herself walking into the nearest bathroom.
"Lilly…you ok in there?" Victoria asked from outside the bathroom. Lilly had been in the bathroom for half an hour already. Jeanne and Victoria knocked once more. "Come in." Lilly said in a muttered voice. When Jeanne and Victoria walked in, they noticed Lilly, fully dressed in her Prefects robes, was sitting in the corner of the bathroom, sobbing. "Why are you crying?" Jeanne asked after shutting the door. "I…I…blew it." Lilly answered with more tears in her eyes. "What did you blow?" Victoria asked. "I blew it with…with…" Lilly started but couldn't finish. She started to softly cry again. "Lilly this isn't like you…this is not like you at all!" Jeanne said. "Who did you blow it with? James?" Victoria asked. Lilly nodded, as if she were ashamed that she somewhat liked him. "Ok…I'll tell you what you told me after Finnegan blew me of…and I quote… 'Suck it up ya wussy! He wasn't meant for ya…you're too good for him. He's a sucka anyway. He don't deserve a girl like you'. So that's what I tell you." Jeanne said indignantly. Lilly just laughed…wiped away her tears…and smiled at her two best friends. "You're right," Lilly said still a little upset, "I'll forget about him. He isn't even that good looking." "Good for you girl. Wipe the rest of the tears away, and then show little mister Quidditch star how to teach new Prefects!" Victoria said encouragingly. "Ok." Lilly said after wiping the last tear. She went outside, and knew everything was going to be ok.
"And that's all you have to do." Lilly said to the new Prefects. She interrupted James' 'Listen to me and you'll do alright!' speech. She knew he'd been practicing on that thing throughout summer, because some of the kids were enthralled. "Thanks." All the 5th years said before they walked out. The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw 6th year Prefects left, and the Slytherin ones never showed up. James and Lilly had the whole compartment to themselves. "Alright Potter. I'll see you on the Prefects carriage." Lilly said, trying to leave. "Wait." James said. "What for?" Lilly asked. " I wanted to talk." James said, blushing. Lilly barely noticed the blush, but she blushed also. She sat back down, and now faced James. "What do you want to talk about?" Lilly said inquisitively. "Well…ya see…since I…" James started. The train suddenly stopped. They had reached Hogwarts. "Tell me during dinner." Lilly said, getting up. "Nah…It's not important." James replied. "Of course it's important. You were just about to ask her out. YOU BIG DOPE!" "All right. If you say so." Lilly said. She walked out, and James hit himself over the head with his wand. He then slowly followed her.
"HMM!" Peter Pettigrew said. He had just bitten into the chicken leg, and he was already making noises. "Oh Peter…you shouldn't be making noise like that. You disgusting boy!" Sirius said in a high-pitched voice, mimicking Professor Harding (a woman), their Care of Magical Creatures teacher. Sirius did in such a way that James, Lupin and Peter all cracked up. "You don't sound like her. You don't stand a chance. It's more like…" James started. "More like detention Mr. Black." Professor Harding said behind James. Sirius' face went blank. He had gotten detention on his first day there. "You might be next Potter!" Professor Harding said before leaving. "God I hate that woman. Glad I don't have her anymore." Sirius said. "Oh yeah. I almost forgot. How'd everyone do?" Peter asked. "I only messed up in two areas. I got E in Astronomy and A in Herbology." Remus said. "I failed Care of Magical creatures, Divination, and Astronomy. I got all O's in everything else. Pretty good." Sirius said. "I got E's in everything but Transfiguration, Care of magical Creatures, and Defense against the Dark Arts. I got O's in those." Peter said. "Well I got…" James started egotistically. He could start off a sentence being egotistical. "I have an announcement. I, Albus Dumbledore, have been named Headmaster of Hogwarts." Professor Dumbledore said. The Great Hall filled with applause. Everyone loves Dumbledore. "Silence…Silence. I have another announcement to make. I have received word of one special occasion. As you may know, 5th year students must take O.W.L.S.. This year, although many have gotten all O's before, we never have people who have gotten a PERFECT score on all their tests. Not only one person achieved this honor…BUT TWO!" Dumbledore started, "They do not know who they are because it has remained secret until this point, but they will be getting special awards. They get…500 Galleons apiece!" Dumbledore said. Everyone was silent. 500 hundred Galleons was A LOT of money. Then everyone began to chant, "WHO IS IT?" "SILENCE!" Dumbledore said, "The two people are…Lilly Potter…" Lilly got up. She had a serious, yet calm and warm, expression on her face. She shook Dumbledore's hand, and took the money. She smiled fully, both dimples showing, and her green eyes filled with tears of happiness. "The other person…who I was not nearly shocked to find out about…has been named 'Class Clown' from all his teachers. He can now stand up and say that fooling around DOES pay off." Dumbledore said, "JAMES POTTER, will you please rise and accept this honor." James was too stunned to get up. He knew he got O's in all his subjects, but he didn't know he did this well. Remus, Sirius, and Peter had to pull/push him up. He walked over to Dumbledore. He did not give Dumbledore a handshake like Lilly did…Instead, he hugged him. While he hugged Dumbledore, he whispered to Dumbledore, "Thanks for believing in me." "Your welcome." Dumbledore whispered back. As soon as James got the money, he lifted it in the air as if it were the Quidditch World Cup. "Because of these two, we have a new policy. We, your teachers and the Ministry of Magic, have decided that you can choose what class to take after your O.W.L.S., as long as you meet your teacher's standards." Dumbledore announced. EVERYONE got up on their seats and clapped, applauded, and whistled. Both James and Lilly looked at each other at the same time, and smiled. Lilly and James thought the same thing, "Wow, I'm both rich!"
