Dating the Enemy

Disclaimer: I really wish I owned Harry Potter, but sadly, I'm a 13-year-old loser who sits here and writes Fan fiction for fun. I don't own ANYTHING. NOTHING! Ok, I do own Brigette Cleremont and Victoria Michaels but that's it!

P.S. No flaming what so ever!

Chapter 5—New Boy.

2 weeks later

"So," Lily said, flicking her red hair over her shoulders. "Let's welcome you guys to the first meeting of the year."

Silence.

"The first matter of business," Lily started, staring at the prefects. "Is to decide about upcoming events."

"Like what?" Johnson asked.

"Like Hogsmeade trips, Johnson." Hayden Parker, a Ravenclaw prefect said.

"Precisely, Hayden." Lily said, smiling at the girl. "We need to plan our next Hogsmeade trip. Anybody have an idea?"

"I got an idea," James said, snapping out of his daydream about snogging Lily. "How about next weekend?"

There was a murmur of agreement at James' statement.

Lily glanced at him quickly before saying, "Okay. Who wants a Hogsmeade trip next week?"

All the prefects' hands were raised.

"Right." Lily said, scribbling it down on a piece of parchment. "Okay. Then the next Hogsmeade trip after this can be near Halloween."

Lily stopped her writing and looked up. "Is that good?"

"Yeah." The prefects' murmured.

Lily returned to her writing as she wrote down the next Hogsmeade date.

James took this as an opportunity to adjourn the meeting.

"Okay," James said, standing up. "Is that all?"

All the prefects straightened up once they got a good look at the sex god, James Potter.

"Yes, James." The girls crooned.

Lily rolled her eyes.

James winked at them, causing them to swoon. "Then I pronounce this meeting adjourned."

There was a sound of scraping chairs as all the prefects exited the room, leaving Lily and James alone.

"That went nicely." Lily said, hitching up the parchment. "At least nobody threw a quill at us."

James, who once again, had been daydreaming about making out with Lily, looked up at her with raised eyebrows.

"Er—did you just say throwing quills?"

Lily nodded, securing the roll of parchment with a wave of her wand.

"Happened last year. The Heads, Sylvia Watson and Evan Daniels were such babies. Couldn't speak in front of a group if their lives depended on it. Anyway, first meeting of the year and Sylvia and Evan stood in front of us prefects, stuttered, and dropped their notes every five seconds. Well, Cody Bayer," Lily paused there for a second as she blushed fiercely. "Cody threw a quill at Evan."

James shook his head. "Juvenile prank." He said matter-of-factly. "Any five year old could chuck at quill at somebody."

Lily pretended she didn't hear that as she said, "I believe that didn't happen because one, we don't have stage fright and two, you're here."

James grinned. Did this mean Lily liked him? He congratulated himself for getting Lily to like him so quickly.

Lily narrowed her eyes as she left the room with James hurrying along in her wake.

"Don't even think about it Potter." Lily said. "I don't like you. The entire population of girls—besides Victoria and me—are madly in love with you. I mean, did you see the way those fifth year girls looked at you?"

James swelled in pride. "I know. I am hot."

Lily rolled her eyes. "You'll never change Potter. Never."

Quickly walking ahead of James, Lily disappeared.

We'll see about that Lily.

Breakfast.

What more was to say?

It was Tuesday morning and mornings meant breakfast. The most important meal of the day.

Well, to Sirius Black and Victoria Michaels, of course it was.

"On your mark—get set—GO!" James shouted as Sirius and Victoria started their usual 'food contest.'

Lily rolled her eyes as she buttered her toast. "Honestly, do those two always have to eat like there is no tomorrow?"

Victoria flicked some food at Lily. It was her way of saying shut up.

"She got you Lils." Brigette laughed as Lily wiped off the bit of hash brown off her face.

Lily said nothing but Brigette could tell she was miffed because she took an unusually large bite of her toast.

--

Five minutes later, Victoria was (yet again) crowned winner of the food contest.

"Take THAT Black!" Victoria shouted, dancing around.

Sirius looked disgruntled. "Why am I losing?" He asked.

"It's because you SUCK!" Victoria shouted again.

"Sit down Vicky!" Lily said, throwing her napkin at Victoria's face.

Victoria made a face. "You're just jealous that you can't eat food as fast as I can."

"Oh yeah," Lily said sarcastically. "That's the reason why."

Victoria (who did not really understand sarcasm) looked self-righteous. "Ha! I thought so!"

Lily rolled her eyes and paid attention to her third slice of toast.

--

Five minutes later, as Lily was about to butter her fourth slice of toast, there was a tap on her shoulder.

Whirling around she came face-to-face with Cody Bayer.

"Cody!" She gasped, her face turning bright red. "W-what a pleasant surprise!"

Cody smiled at Lily. "Nice to see you again too, Lily."

Lily seriously could have melted right there. Cody Bayer was talking to her. CODY BAYER!

Nobody knew about Lily's long crush on Cody Bayer—not even her best friends.

Cody was incredibly cute. He was the fourth hottest boy in school (after the Marauders of course!) and incredibly smart. Not to mention he was kind, sweet and nothing like Potter.

Cody had dark brown hair and light green eyes. They were five shades lighter than Lily's—but Lily adored those eyes.

Nervously tucking a strand of red hair behind her ear, Lily looked up at Cody. "W-what do you want?"

"Well," Cody looked slightly embarrassed. "You know how there's a Hogsmeade trip coming up?"

Lily's face lit up as James' face turned red with anger.

"Yes." Lily said, calming herself down. She didn't want to look eager.

"Well, I was wondering if you would like to come with me." Cody asked.

Lily's face broke into a dazzling smile. "I would love too!"

James would have loved to rip Cody Bayer's face out right now.

Cody smiled. "Great! I'll meet you at the Great Hall. Okay?"

Lily nodded. "I'll meet you there at around noon."

Cody couldn't stop smiling. "That's great! Well, got to go."

"Bye." Lily waved and then turned back around, her expression dreamy like.

"Well, well, well!" Victoria exclaimed, highly amused. "Little Miss Lily Anne Evans actually is going out with a boy!"

Brigette snorted. "Oh come on, Vicky! You're making it sound like Lily has never gone out with a boy!"

"She has not!"

"Yes I have!" Lily retorted.

"Oh yeah?" Victoria asked. "Who?"

"Andrew Sullivan." Lily replied promptly. "Fourth year from October to November."

"Andrew Sullivan?" Sirius asked, his face breaking out in a grin. "Were you that desperate?"

A handful of egg in Sirius's face showed him how Lily thought about that comment.

"I remember Andrew," Remus said thoughtfully. "Nice guy."

"Very nice." Lily looked sad for a moment. "I liked going out with him."

"Then, why did you break up with him?" Victoria asked impatiently.

"Because," Lily glared at James. "Your friend here threatened Andrew to beat him up if he didn't break up with me."

There were groans as James was pelted with napkins.

"James!" Brigette snapped, "You don't do that to a girl!"

"Well, I didn't like the guy!" James snapped. "There was something bad about him."

"Yeah, the fact that he was dating Lily." Sirius muttered.

"Shut up, Sirius!"

"GUYS!" Victoria shouted. "GUYS!"

"What?"

"Look, let's not argue." She said. "It shouldn't bother any of us. James, you have a girlfriend and she is sitting right next to you."

James gave a death glare to Victoria.

"Is that all Madam?" Remus asked.

Victoria nodded. "All done."

Lily on the other hand, wasn't even paying attention to a word her friend was saying. All she cared about was that her crush, Cody Bayer finally asked her out.

And this time, James Potter couldn't interfere.

Hey, it's me! I'm SO sorry for the long wait! I was busy finishing my other story, 'Summer of Love,' so, unfortunately, I put most of my effort into that story. Now that Summer of Love is finished, I'll be throwing myself into this story!

Hmm, this chapter is kind of boring but the NEXT chapter 'Hogsmeade' should be a bit more interesting. After Chapter 6, drama will heat up big time so don't get mad yet!

In addition, this is for my 'Summer of Love' reviewers who are currently reading this story. I got a review from somebody saying they would like to see a sequel to SoL about Harry and Anna. I want YOUR opinion on it!

Until next week!
