Someday You'll Care
Author's Note: Okay, so this is new and I am just trying to see if I like the idea. I really don't have an idea, yet but I'll come up with one. I'm sure I will. So anyway review.
Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter, or anything that you recognize. If you don't know it then it's probably mine.
Summeray: Lily Evans, never could stand James Potter. He was an arrogant prick, and she couldn't fathom what the Headmaster saw in him. He could rot in a ditch for all she cared. He wasn't the kind of person that sat a good example. So, why was he Head Boy? One day Lily Evans sees him in his weakest state after an attack from Voldemort. She sees the side of James Potter that most didn't know excist. But she couldn't be bothered. His words to her one day out by the lake were, "Someday you'll care, Lily, someday you'll care enough to need me, but I won't be there, because you don't care". Leaving her pondering she wonders is there more to James Potter then meets the eye?

Fights and snickers

A figure sat in front of a fire in the common room. She didn't move the steady rise and fall of her chest said that she was sleeping. Her red hair falling down over the chair arm she was curled in a ball. Upon first glance you would see that she was the most beautiful girl in the world, but if you got to know her you would see that she was rather insecure.
Her name was, Lily Alexandrian Evans, she was a seventh year at Hogwarts, she was Head girl, and the moment very tired. This was all on the count of James Potter, who deemed it necessary to prank her mercilessly. Lily didn't really have a problem with this, it didn't matter she was used to it. But she was tired of it and she was tired of James Potter. She couldn't wait until the year was over.
She would get away for it all start over and find something else that she could go by. She loved it here, but the memories were too painful. She had once had friends. They were the best, but they had both died, or rather they were murder. She had shut herself down not letting anybody in. She hadn't made another friend since. She didn't need to they were just people, who would leave eventually.
The next morning was filled with over sleeping and the screams of those that woke up to find that they had over slept. Lily was one of them. She had fallen asleep in the common room. She didn't have much time to get ready if she wanted breakfast. Walking into the Great Hall she was stared at and snickered at, and then just down right laughed at. She blushed and looked down, she gasped. He skin was orange and her hair green.
She marched over to the table spotting Potter. She stepped in front of him. Noticing that he was currently drinking his pumpkin juice she reached a hand out and shoved his cup in his face. Causing his drink to spill all over him, Remus and Sirius snorted into their plates. There was going to be another fight this time it wasn't going to end pretty.
"Ten gallons that Evans is the one that storms out," Sirius whispered to Remus. His eyes were twinkling merrily and his mouth was curled into a mischievous smile.
"You're on, Sirius," Remus added looking at James, who now had a look of pure out rage on his face. Lily as always stood there in her orange and green glory did nothing to her stern look that she was currently shooting at James.
"What the bloody hell was that for, Evans?" James snapped, causing the red head to winch. She was breathing heavily and her eyes were blazing.
"Take. It. Off. Now." she hissed expressing each word as she said it. James was hardly intimidated. She was 5'4" where as James stood at 6'5" and towered above her. Her fists were clenched, and James was getting mad.
"No." he said simply before sitting down. Lily's face turned red.
"What do you mean 'no'?" She screeched, walking over and pulling him up by his ear. He yelped indignantly pulling at her hand.
"Take it off, Potter or you won't have an ear much longer," she said deadly, giving his ear a cruel twist. Sirius was beside himself. Clutching his side he rolled off the bench. James threw him a pained glare, and Remus stuffed his fist in his mouth snorting. This was a sight to behold. Not many people had the guts to stand up to James Potter. Those that were friends (mostly Sirius) and Lily Evans, most people that looked at him were sent back to their place. He gave off that bully feeling.
"Sirius, take it off," James gasped his ear a nice shade of scarlet. Sirius pulled out his wand but could not talk. He was still laughing on the floor, clutching his sides. Lily yanked on James' ear menacingly making him yelp. After about five minutes that it took for Sirius to sober up, and stop laughing the Great Hall was gathered around.
"Finite." And immediately Lily was back the way she had been the night before. Glaring at James she gave him one last vicious yanked and stocked off. Rubbing his throbbing ear he sat back on the bench glaring at a sixth year that dared laugh at him. Peter rolled his eyes and went back to stuffing his face.
"God, Prongs, talk about PMS", Sirius stated rubbing his ear, as if he had been the one that had nearly gotten his ear ripped off. Remus smirked but said nothing. James again rubbed his ear tenderly and sipped on his juice.
"No, I was thinking something along the lines of Mad Cow Disease." Sirius snorted into his plate. Picking up their things they went to their first class. Halfway there Sirius stuck out his hand.
"Pay up, Moony". Remus grinned pulled out a slip of paper. I owe Sirius Black. Sirius swore and flipped the paper away from him.
"I swear, Moony, one of these days…"Remus grinned and they walked into charms.
