A New Year
When Lily woke up she felt extremely excited. This was her year, today was the beginning of her seventh year at Hogwarts. She was not going to let anything bother her. Lily had just been dreaming of her first year at Hogwarts, she couldn't believe that only six years ago she met her three best friends Annie, Maria, and Becca.
Lily was also excited because she had just been named Head Girl. "I wonder who will be Head Boy? Maybe its Remus or Will. I hope its Jeff he's so hot." She thought out loud.
"Talking to yourself? That's pathetic" a woman snarled a woman. This woman, if you could call her that, had short wiry blonde hair and plain brown eyes. She also had a long neck making her look somewhat like a horse. "If you had any friends then this wouldn't be a problem. But then again who would want to be friends with a freak like you?" the woman smirked and walked away. That was Petunia, Lily's 22 year old sister who hated Lily for being a witch.
Ten minutes later Lily was ready and down stairs, making sure she had everything for her last year at Hogwarts. "Mum have you seen my charms book I can't find it anywhere!" Lily yelled, as she looked under the couch. An older woman came out of the kitchen, she had light brown hair and stunning green eyes much like her daughter's, "No Lils are you sure you didn't already pack it?" Lily thought for a second and ran upstairs to check in her trunk. There it was hiding in her cauldron. When Lily went back downstairs, "Hey Mum how is it you know where everything is" the red head asked curiously. "Well hon, you have your magic and I have intuition." Her mom stated matter-of-factly.
20 minutes later, Lily and her mother were on their way to King's Cross. "Where's Dad?" Lily asked. "Oh he couldn't make it he had to work, he really wanted to be here to see you off" her mother said sadly. "I bet" Lily muttered bitterly. Lily and her father hadn't been getting along so well. He said that she spent more time on spells and magic than she did on family and the real world. That's what he didn't get this was her real world magic and spells.
Lily said good-bye to her mum and set off for the barrier to get on to Platform 9(3/4). When she got onto the platform she tried to look for her three best friends, but do to the fact that she was barely 5'3 and couldn't see over the heads of the fourth years, she couldn't find them. That's when she heard her name "LILY!" someone screamed. She knew what was coming next; no more that five seconds later Lily was engulfed into to a bear hug so tight she could barley breathe. "Guys oxygen!" she managed to say between gasps of air, there they were her three best friends; Anastasia Stevens the loud and hyperactive one. Maria Santos the outgoing and sarcastic American. Then of course there was Rebecca Smith the sweet and smart one. Lily, herself, was known as the kind, short, and easily angered one. These four were the most popular girls at Hogwarts, each known for their distinct hair and eye color. While the girls were busy keeping Lily from oxygen four troublemakers were also saying their hellos.
"Oy Prongs over here!" yelled a handsome young man with steel gray eyes and semi-long black hair. "Padfoot I haven't seen you in ages." Joked a young man with hair so messy it looked like it hadn't been combed in years.
"I know two hours, that's the longest we've ever been apart." Sirius said as he feigned mock sadness.
"A Moony, Wormtail how were your guys summer?" asked James
"You know same as always. Eat, sleep, full moons" Remus replied also known as Moony.
"Mine was pretty uneventful too" piped up a chubby boy known as Wormtail.
"Do any of you know where Lily is?"
"No but I do see my cousin, so Lily must be close"
"Let's go over there" James suggested eagerly.
"Fine whatever you want Prongs" sighed Remus.
"Hello ladies" Sirius said rather loudly. All four girls jumped back in surprise. "Oh hi Remus, Sirius, Peter, Potter" Lily greeted. "Oh now Evans why so cold to me?" James asked in mock hurt.
"Sod off Potter!" Lily said as she went on to the train the rest of the girls following. The four girls found an empty compartment and sat in silence for a few minutes until, "Hey Lils do you know who the head boy is?"
"No" the red head replied "But I hope its Josh Peterson, you know the tall Ravenclaw with the brilliant blue eyes."
"Oh what about Daniel Bell, now that boy is hot!" Annie said excitedly. They were on her favorite subject boys.
"Yeah but he's so conceited, almost as bad as James, plus he's really rude."
"You just said was hot; and that boy is hot"
Lily just rolled her eyes at this comment. "Hey Lils?" Maria asked getting the red head's attention.
"Yeah Maria?"
"Ok now don't get mad when I ask you this…" Maria warned.
"Ok…" Lily said somewhat worried.
"Why do you always compare boys to James?"
"WHAT? I do not always compare boys to Potter."
"Yeah you do." Annie cut in quickly. "Remember in fifth year when Taylor Pace asked you out, and you said no because he was as annoying as James?"
"Or like in fourth year when you didn't go out with Andrew Conrad because his ego was as big as James." Becca cut in.
"Or like just a few seconds ago when you compared Daniel to James." Maria concluded.
"I-wha-I-no" Lily said flustered. When she thought about it she did compare a lot of boys to James. Suddenly the door of their compartment flew open revealing a handsome youth with steel gray eyes. "Hey Sirius" the four girls said "So where are the rest of the marauders?" Lily asked. "Well…" he began but was interrupted by a messy haired youth. "Remus is in the prefect carriage. Peter went to find food, and I came to find Evans." James finished.
"Please Potter don't ask me out again" pleaded the red head.
"I wasn't." James said a little hurt but quickly recovered. "I came to get you for the prefect meeting."
"Why" she questioned eying him suspiciously.
"Two reasons. A) It starts in about" he looked at his watch. "Three minutes ago. And B) we have responsibilities as head boy and girl to over see the meeting."
The whole compartment went silent. Lily just looked shocked and finally stuttered "Yo-Your head boy?"
"Yes now let's go" he said as he grabbed Lily's wrist and dragged her out of the compartment. Surprisingly she didn't resist. Outside the prefect compartment Lily finally spoke. "Uhh Potter you can let go of my wrist now, we're here."
"Oh right, sorry." James said somewhat sheepishly and they walked into the prefect compartment together.
The whole compartment fell silent; they had never seen the two greatest enemies not arguing. Around the meeting table there was an extremely awkward silence. Finally James couldn't take it, he hated silence. "OK, well I'm James Potter and this," he said while pointing to the red head on his right, "Is Lily Evans. We're the new Head Boy and Girl at Hogwarts." Lily was pleasantly surprised at James new found maturity.
"Yes well there are many things on our agenda today." Lily cut in. "First is deciding the new passwords" and the meeting continued, all the prefects were surprised, even Remus. The meeting went well no arguments what so ever.
Due to the fact Lily and James still had responsibilities Remus walked to his friend's compartment in awe. When he entered the compartment he was strangely silent, even for him, "Moony you ok? You haven't told me to shut up in 10 minutes what's wrong?" He didn't answer. "Rem talk you look like you just saw Snape in a thong. What's wrong?" Becca asked him, for the six years that she had known him she had never seen him look so scared. He finally said "The Apocalypse is coming"
"Huh?" was the unanimous response.
"They weren't yelling. They weren't screaming. They didn't even snap at each other."
"Remus who?" Maria asked worried about her friend
"Lily and James didn't argue for the entire meeting."
Meanwhile back in the prefect compartment the civil act wasn't holding up so well.
"I thought you gained at least some maturity over the summer Potter." Lily yelled.
"You know what Evans I never realized you were such a prude." James shouted back just as loud.
"So will you stop asking me out?"
"No"
"Why do you torture me so?"
"Because I know one day you'll say yes"
"Don't get your hopes up" she muttered.
"So Evans will you go out with me?"
"How can I do out with someone who calls me by my last name?"
"Fine, Lily will you go out with me?"
"No"
"Please"
"No"
"Pretty Please" James pleaded on his knees.
Lily wanted to laugh out loud, but instead she simply said, "No"
"Please?"
"I'll think about it."
"Really?"
"No"
"That was colder than cold"
"Do I look like I care?"
"Huh?"
She didn't hear him she just stood up and left the compartment. He just stared at her as she walked away.
"Potter stop looking at my butt." She shouted not even bothering to look back.
He chuckled to himself. Honestly he wasn't staring at her butt; he was staring at her in general. He loved to watch her, loved the way she would play with her hands when she was embarrassed in front of other people. Or how when she tried not to laugh she bit both of her lips. The truth was he had fallen in love with her. At first he just asked her out as a joke, but when she said no he was intrigued. And the more she said no to his offer the more infatuated he became. The truth was he was slowly but surely falling in love with the red head.
He quickly caught up to the red head in front of him, "Hey Lily wait up!" James shouted. She stopped for a moment and let him catch up, "Wow you said my name twice in a row. Want a cookie?" she said sarcastically.
"Huh?" he asked.
"Well every time you talk to me you always address me Evans, or Red, or some other colorful name."
"Oh, well I only call you those 'cuz you never call me by my first name"
"And why pray tell is that?"
"Because you never use mine." He said simply.
"Then why did you all of the sudden start using my first name?"
"Because we are both heads and we should show some maturity."
Lily gave him a look.
"Ok I should show some maturity"
This made Lily couldn't help but laugh just outside their friend's compartment.
"Did you hear that?" Maria asked no one in particular. But before anyone could answer the compartment door opened to reveal a laughing Lily and James. Their friends were amazed, and that is using the term loosely. Lily looked at he friends, "What might I ask are you guys staring at?" "Oh my gawd it's the apocalypse!" Sirius shouted pointing at Lily and James. They looked at each other with equally confused faces.
"Moony what is he talking about?" James asked a little worried about his friend's mental health.
"Uhhhh" Remus said tying to come up with an answer. "You know how he gets when he eats to much chocolate. Annie made the mistake of giving him some chocolate frogs."
"Annie you had chocolate frogs why didn't you give me any?" Sirius whined.
In response Annie just smacked him over the head.
"Hey why did you do that for?" Sirius asked while rubbing the back of his head.
"She did that because you are a complete idiot." Maria told her cousin, "I'm glad my mom got the smart genes."
"Oh I have an idea." Sirius said jumping up and down.
"Great another brilliant idea from the screwed up mind of Sirius Black" Becca muttered causing Remus to stifle a laugh.
"No really it's a great idea."
"Sure it must be brilliant to come from your mind Padfoot." James commented.
"Why thank y- hey that was not cool."
"Just go on with the idea Black." Annie said.
"Ok let's play truth-or dare!" he said excitedly.
"Will you shut up if we do?" Annie asked.
"Sure"
"Fine everyone agree?"
"Yeah whatever"
And so the game began. "Ok Annie truth or dare?" James asked.
"Ummm Truth I guess, because I don't trust marauders when it comes to dares." Annie stated.
"Ok if you had to choose between Slughorn and Snape to kiss which one would it be?"
"You just had to pick the two people I hate didn't you?"
"You know it."
"Ugh I guess Slughorn if I kissed Snape I would get zits from all the grease in his hair."
The whole compartment laughed. "Ok so who's next?" Annie said looking around the compartment. "Maria" she said sweetly. "No. NO. Last time we played this I ended up in the lake naked." "EWWW. Cousin. Mental Images. Disturbing. Brain Turn OFFF!" Sirius yelled finally someone had enough sense to hit him hard on the head. "Thanks." He said to Annie.
"Then pick truth." Annie said returning to Maria.
"No because you know if I lie then you make me tell the truth."
"Truth or dare?"
"I'm not playing."
"Truth or dare?"
"I'm not playing."
"Truth or dare?"
"Fine dare. Ok dare." Maria shouted.
"Thank you that is all I was asking for."
"Get on with it or I will tell everyone about what you dream about doing with a certain some one."
Annie's face went as red as Lily's hair.
"Righto then. I dare you to…"
"Oh hurry up!" Maria almost shouted she hated this game.
"Hold your Hippogriffs. Ok Dance around the train singing 'I eat slugs!'"
"Lovely be back in a second if I don't survive I leave all my chocolate frogs to Lily." Maria announced as she exited the compartment.
"Do you really think she's gonna do it?" James asked no one in particular.
"O she will but with a twist." Lily answered.
"What do you mean?"
"Just listen."
James strained his ears and he heard Maria singing "I eat slugs and Annie wants to snog Slughorn. And I eat slugs!" James and Lily started laughing uncontrollably. Their friends just looked at them, "Have they finally cracked?" Peter asked.
"Lily are you ok?" Becca asked. Lily pointed to her ear, and Becca understood she listened and heard Maria's song. She too started laughing. "Annie listen." After a few seconds Annie shouted "I'm gonna kill her!" and stalked off to go get Maria. All of the sudden you could here some one scream "Annie no don't do something you'll regret come on I'm your best friend." "Were my best friend can't do much once I murder you." They all heard Annie scream back. "Wait Annie NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO." That was all they heard until they heard feet running toward the compartment. "Annie put the wand away. I don't have one it's not fair and you know it!" Lily opened the door just in time, "Annie put the wand away." She said calmly. "Did you hear what she said?" Annie asked practically shouting. "Yes Annie I did, but may I remind you that you are in the presence of the head boy and girl and you shouldn't be using any curses."
"What about jin-"
"Or jinxes, or hexes or spells or any other type of magic. If you do I'll have to give you a detention."
"Lily you wouldn't I mean we're best friends, sisters."
"What you want me to treat you like how I treat my sister?" she asked trying to hold back a smile.
"No." All the girls laughed at this they were the only ones that knew how Petunia treated Lily at home.
"Are we missing something?" Sirius asked the girls with a confused face, this just made the girls laugh harder.
"C'mon tell me please." He whined
"No, let's get on with the game." Annie said still laughing slightly, the previous events completely forgotten.
"Maria you turn!" Remus said politely.
"Okay Dokey umm I dunno."
All of the sudden the door opened to reveal another lanky seventh year.
"Snivillus what do you want?" James asked standing up.
"What do we have here?" he sneered completely ignoring James questioned. "Three mud bloods all together, how convenient."
"Don't you ever call me or my friends that Snape." Lily said moving in front of James.
"How dare you speak to me you filth. A dirty little mud blood has no right to talk to a pureblo…"
"Don't even think about finishing your sentence Snape I know all about you pureblood façade."
After Lily said this Snape visibly paled. Everyone was listening closely to what Lily was saying.
"That's right Snape, I know all about your blood line. You complain along with all your Slytherin friends how muggle-borns and half bloods have no right to be among you. All the while hoping none of them would realize your deepest secret, your muggle father. Now leave before I let it slip." The last sentence Lily spoke was deathly low, after that Snape ran from the compartment.
After Lily closed the door she turned around to find everyone looking at her, amazed by what she had just said. "What?" she asked looking innocent. "Wow" was all James could say. "I agree. Lils how did you know all that?" Becca asked.
"All I did was read old Daily Prophets from the library." She answered simply. Everyone just stared at her then all of the sudden Sirius bowed down on hands and knees and said "Lily Evans you are my hero."
"Thanks. I think." She replied awkwardly.
"Never shall the Marauders underestimate or prank you again"
Lily turned to Remus and said "Can I have this in writing?" He just laughed.
"Hey people I can see the Castle we need to change." Annie stated. Sirius got off the floor and said with a cheeky smile, "Don't let us stop you."
"Black that's disgusting you want to see your own cousin change?" Becca said clearly grossed out.
"NOOO that's… that's I can't even think of a word to describe how wrong that is"
"Ok on that note we'll leave you ladies alone to change." James said as the other three left.
