Chappie Five:

Breakfast

"Sirius," a dazed James said as he walked into the kitchens.

"Hmpf?" Sirius mumbled through a mouthful of food.

"Sirius, she's here. In this school. Right now."

Sirius swallowed and looked at James. "Would you mind elaborating a little bit, Prongs? I'm having a little trouble figuring out who is here. I know I'm here, and well you're here, and Maggie's here. Are you talking about Maggie?"

"No, Sirius. Lily Evans. Lily Evans is here." He picked up an apple and tossed it in the air before taking a bite out of it.

"Who is Lily Evans?"

James froze in mid bite and just stared at Sirius. Man, if looks could kill, this was one of them.

Sirius thought hard for a second before saying, "Oh, yeah. Lily Evans. That bird you're always talking about. The one who moved to Spain when you were kids."

"Yes Sirius. That Lily Evans."

"Wow. And she's here. Right now? What are the odds of that? Hey, is she that new transfer student Maggie was talking about?"

"Yeah, Padfoot, she is. What am I going to do? I wonder what she's like. What if she doesn't remember me? What if she doesn't even want to see me? What should I do?"

"Here, have a muffin."

"Hey, Lily," Maggie said as she walked into the girls dormitory. "I'm just going to take a shower and then we can go get some breakfast. The guys are already down there so I'll hurry."

Lily sat down on her bed and started combing out her wet hair. "Sounds like fun. Who are these mystery men you speak of? You haven't told me their names!"

Maggie walked over to the bathroom and called back, "Oh, didn't I? Well, it'll be Sirius Black and James Potter." Lily heard a rush of water as her friend turned on the shower.

'James Potter,' Lily thought. 'No, it couldn't be him. It's a common name. Remember, you're back in England now. Potter is a common name and James even more so. It's just a coincidence.' She sighed; she so wanted it to be him. 'I'm not going to get my hopes up. Not again.'

Lily leaned down and dug through her trunk. She pulled out a pair of jeans and a forest green t-shirt. She always thought green looked good with her eyes. Lily quickly changed out of her robe and into her clothes. She dried her hair with a flick of her wand and waited for Maggie. She didn't have to wait long.

"Hey, Lily," Maggie called from the bathroom, "would you mind tossing me a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt from my trunk?"

"Nope," Lily answered. She fished out Maggie's clothes, crossed to the bathroom, and handed them around the door.

"Thanks."

"No problem. Tell me more about Sirius and James."

"Okay. Well, they're tall, and they're both smart, like totally top of the class, and they both have black hair. They are like the most popular guys in school. Every girl in school has gone out with at least one of them, some of them have gone out with both, and a couple have gone out with both at the same time."

"Eww!"

"Yeah. Well, except me. They're like brothers to me. And you now, I guess. They, and two others, Remus and Peter, call themselves the Marauders. They go around pulling pranks on everyone, but especially the Slytherins. It's hilarious."

"I bet it is." Lily grinned; remembering the pranks Jimmy pulled when they were younger.

"Okay. You ready?" Maggie stepped out of the bathroom.

Lily read Maggie's sweatshirt. "Macalester College? Where's that?"

"In the States," Maggie explained. "I'm going to go there when I get out of Hogwarts. Mom doesn't want me to go, but I figure by then, what can she do? Besides, it's like one of the best colleges. I can't wait!"

"But, college? That's a muggle thing."

"Not this one. It's a wizardry college. I plan on going there to further my studies in potions."

"Eww. Potions?"

"Yeah, and proud of it." Maggie smiled. "Let's go, or there won't be any food left!"

"Sirius, I'm starting to get worried. Where are they?" James asked as he paced back and forth across the kitchen.

"Jeez la peet, James! Calm down. You're making me dizzy."

"But where are they? Hasn't it been a long time? Where could they be?"

"James. You're being irrational. They are girls. Where do you think they are? They are in the bathroom getting all nice and pretty for breakfast. Hey, kinda like you. Although, I assume they'll look twice as better as you when they get down here."

The door swung open and Maggie's voice said, "Hey, guys! We're here! Hope you didn't eat everything!"

"Nope," Sirius said. "We saved you this rotten apple, a half eaten waffle, and some cranberry muffins."

"Ugh, I hate cranberry muffins!" Maggie cried.

"Yeah, me too, that's why I didn't eat them."

Meanwhile, Lily had entered the kitchens. James took a step forward and asked hoarsely, "Lily?"

"Jimmy?" she questioned back. He nodded, and she ran into his arms; laughing and crying at the same time.

"It's been so long," he told her. "I missed you so much."

"Me too. I could never stop thinking about you."

"You don't know how long I've wanted to hear you say that."

At this point Sirius interjected. "Ahem."

James whipped around and Lily wiped the tears from her eyes.

"I, for one," said Maggie, "would like an explanation."

Lily blushed but told her story.

"Wow. That is so cute. Do you still have the locket?" Maggie asked.

"Yep." Lily showed the locket to her.

"Aw."

"Psh. Girls." Sirius rolled his eyes. Maggie hit him on the arm. "Ow."

"You deserved it. I don't know about you, Lily, but I'm starving."

"Yeah, where's the food?"

"Gone," Sirius informed.

"Sirs and Madams more food," a small elf carrying a large try said.

"Thank you, Svelty." Maggie accepted the tray gratefully. "I think that Lily and I will keep this all to ourselves." She walked over to the door.

"Hold it!" Lily called after her. "Where are you going with my breakfast?"

"Outside, ti's such a beautiful day. Who would want to spend it inside?"

"She's got a point there," James agreed and they all followed Maggie outside.
