I'm one shy of my goal, but 16, 17 it'all the same. I hope you like!
James POV!
James (as in me, the wonderful James) is seriouslypissed off!
I'm gonna keep adding exclamation points until I'm satisfied that everyone else around me is pissed of too.
I'll write to show you how mad I really am-

There! I feel better. Anyways I was minding my own business in the Boys Dormitory when Sirius just trashed my part of the room, took my shampoo, and ate the breakfast the houseelves gave me. The room I could clean up and the houseelves sent me another breakfast but my HAIR! Normallyit's looks cool and suave, and it's really soft when I put my hands through it. Now I have Snape hair.
Characteristics that make "Snape" hair include itchy scalp, dandruff, greasiness, and all in all ugly.
You know those kids who just randomly hit other people because they want to? Well, if taking shampoo was like hitting, then Sirius is one of those kids. My hair! I started whining, not to Sirius, he'd rub in the fact that his hair is completely smooth and silky; I did the only ethical thing and whined to Remus.
"Reeeeeeeeeeeemuuuuuuuuuusssssssssssss" I kept "sss"ing like a snake just to annoy him.
"What?"
"Look at my beautiful locks of hair! They're not beautiful for my date with Lily!"
"Date? Don't let her hear you say that."
"Not the point, but what do I do about the hair!" I sounded like one of those spoiled kids (not the crazy hitting kids like Sirius), but I don't care, cause' I have a hair emergency.
There I was, freaking out with Remus when Sirius came waltzing along, he looked straight at me, grinned, and then…Well, I'm so mad I can't even say…
He ran his hand through his hair! That's my thing! Dirty Bastard.
Must die.
Of course when I went to attack him Remus grabbed me, and made me sit still, he can't control me, he's not my mom!
"Ow! Remus, what'd you do that for?" Nevermind, apparently he can make me sit still.
Remus calmly suggested everything from borrowing different shampoo's to Scourgifying charms.
He's obviously not cut out to be the smart one. I have a personally made shampoo which keeps my hair ever so silky, yet messy. Remus also forgot that when we used that cleaning charm on Snape, he got soap bubbles in his mouth, Remus is either really stupid, or wanted me to taste soap and look bad.
Evil genius or just plain stupid? You decide, I say stupid.
I looked at my watch and nearly cried out, 30 minutes till I pick Lily up! Dr. Garison will not have his hair formula by then!
Then I remembered! I dug into my pocket, and pulled my spare hairbrush, my hair gel, my galleon card, and my house key, and then I pulled out…
My mini shampoo! I can just hear the angelic choir!
I rushed up to wash my hair; on my way up the stairs I whacked Sirius in the face. I didn't say sorry either.
Lily POV
I hate James. Why? He's the reason I'm up, at 6:20! Technically I could have woken up at 7:00 and still been on time, but I like to be early. I had all my stuff, and I was talking with Marina, and eating my waffle when I heard a shriek, a loud girlish shriek. I looked at Marina; she just shrugged and went back to eating her godforsakensalad.
So as soon as I finished I got my luggage, got my copy of Advanced Transfiguration, and just read in the Great Halluntil James to arrived, hopefully on time. I don't plan on falling behind in my schoolwork just because of this job.
Back to James's Problem (James's POV)
SHIiiii-p
No mum, of course I wasn't about to say shit. Actually, saying shit now defeats the purpose of saying ship before…so
SHIT!
Damn that Sirius! I was of course washing my hair when all the sudden the water turned to ice. I then released a many very manly shout.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" I assumed that someone had just flushed, after all this is a very big castle. 10 more minutes passed and the water was still cold, I realized, Hogwarts is a magic school; toilets wouldn't make magic water cold (Ice water tended to slow my reaction time).
Drenched, swearing, and pissed off I dried, got dressed, and then calmly left the bathroom.
"SIRIUS IMGONNA KILL YOU!" I was so mad that my "I'M GOING TO" turned into "IMGONNA"
I do not respond well when someone messes with my hair, or anything to do with the boy's bathroom.
My attempts to kill him were foiled again by MamaRemus, which I've kindly dubbed him.
After MamaRemus calmed me down, we left for the Great Hall, where I'm sure my Lily is waiting because we're 10 minutes late (because of my crucial hair emergency)
Lily POV
Remember when I said I was mad at James? Well I cooled down substantially after eating, but when he was eleven and a half minutes late, well I was pissed off yet again. He expected pity when hecame crying to me about how sorry he was for being late onour date.
Our date.
Well after that, I just couldn't keep my temper in.
"What to you mean date" I said this all very dangerously, with venom dripping off of my words. Oh, yeah, I sounded evil.
I kind of regretted sounding so evil because that started another round of "I'm sorry's," "and "I didn't mean it's", and "forgive me's." At that point I kind of just ignored him and talked to Paige, she was chosen to model with Peter.
I figured out that the blonde mysterious "babe's" name was Brianna, and Riley was partnered up with Remus.
Haha I just realized, Riley and Remus, Paige and Peter. They start with the same letter, haha. I'm easily amused, so what?
We were about halfway to Dumbledore's office when I realized, I was the only one with a suitcase. My observation skills must shock you.
I asked Paige "Why don't you have a suitcase? Where are your clothes?"
She looked at me strangely ask said "We don't need them, we're buying new wardrobes today. Didn't James tell you?"
James
"James?" I asked in the most flirtatious voice I could muster.
Grinning lovingly he said "Yeah?"
"Why do I have a suitcase?" He paled
"Lily?"
"Yes James?" Still in that sickenly sweet voice
"We're going shopping." There was a pause, "are you going to hurt me?"
I just whacked him with my suitcase and made him carry it.
James POV
Damn, I knew I forgot something. Lily probably hates me, she'll marry Sirius and they'll have little Padfoot babies, and when I become bald and fat, he'll purposely run his hands through his healthy non-greasy hair, again.
"NOOOOOOOOOO! Lily don't marry Sirius!"
Damn, I said that aloud, there was an awkward silence. Then Sirius went down on one knee and proposed.
"My dearest Lily-flower, will you marry me, Sirius, and not James?" Lily just laughed. She laughed. Not fair, she'll laughwith Sirius, but all I get was a weird look.
Dang that Sirius, dang him to heck.
We made it to Dumbledore's office and he gave us the usual grandfather smile, and then gave us a flower pot filled with floo powder.
Curios, he puts his floo powder in a flower pot, so do I! My mom always did say "Great minds think alike."
He told us we were going to the Leaky Cauldron to stay and warned us not to do anything wrong. It's not as if he wouldn't know. He knows everything that happens in the Britain that is seriously creepy.
The trip to the Leaky Cauldron was uneventful we all smiled to Tom and left for our rooms.
The guys would have a room, and the girls would have another. Drat, I hoped they would put us with our partners. Dumbledore knows us teens too well.
Anyways we left the Cauldron and made it to Diagon Alley for some shopping, goody.
Lily POV
I've never bought anything I thought was to pricy so I automatically went to Billy's Bargain shop, but when I saw everyone going to Ellie's Emporium of Elegant Robes and More, I had to follow. That place is huge; it's like a department store, for the insanely rich wizards of the world.
I was dragged off to the clothing section with the other girls, that was probably for the best because I have the worst sense of fashion none to man.
So I spent the next hour with the other girls and had them pick out styles for me. It wasn't so bad, and we all spent the next 2 hours modeling our clothes for each other. I came in the dressing room with my arms filled with clothes; I left with about 10 different outfits. The other girls still said I didn't have enough and went hunting for some new clothes.
Riley commented on this hideous yellow dress "Ew, Lily yellow is definitely not your color; it clashes with your hair. Try this cream suit, I think it would suit you perfectly."
I was talking with Paige through the dressing room walls. Paige was beautifully blonde and compact. She could wear anything, including yellow, and look amazing, so I was surprised when she said she was jealous of me.
"Yeah, Lily you're not confident enough. You look so exotic and pretty. Whenever you find something that doesn't clash with your hair you bring it to life!"
Riley shoved another dress underneath the dressing room door, this time green. "You are so lucky that you're partners with James" Riley said wistfully. "Remus is nice, but James is definitely my type."
"Wanna trade?" We both laughed and I got out.
Brianna gasped, "Oh Lily you look wonderful, it definitely brings out you eyes!" She squealed! "But honestly," she said smiling; "you two don't want to switch partners."
I looked at her curiously, "Why?"
"Well, for one, you would hurt their feelings. Plus you and James look so cute together." Brianna could really be a doll, but me and James, eugh.
Riley asked "You don't think me and James would look together?" She looked slightly put off.
Brianna's smile faltered, "I suppose, but I can really imagine Lily and James getting married and being together forever."
I was clearly appalled, "Me and James, never! James is too, too, I can't explain it but, we're not good together."
"But, he's so sweet!"
"Yeah, but he too dramatic, and spoiled, egotistical, and he's so immature! He's the typical model type. He thnks he can do no wrong"
"Sounds like you made up your mind about him before you even gave him a chance."
I gave him a chance, right?
James POV
He was having a problem, he was hyperventilating, why?
He was lost. Not just lost, but he was in the women's section! Not just the women's section, but the women's section, you know the place where the personal products are kept.
Too much pink, too many boxes of tampons. He wanted to cry, but crying in the women's section was just not done.
He heard a voice, save me! Was that Lily? She couldn't see him in here! He had to hide!
Lily POV
She heard something, was that whimpering? Was a little boy lost? How embarrassing of all the places to lose your place in it had to be the feminine productaisle.
Was that a leg, and a shoe, dashing behind an aisle! Didn't James wear those shoes, and he was wearing brown pants too!
She made a mad dash for him, she turned sharply, but she didn't expect James to be right in front of her as soon as she turned.
SMACK
And this time it wasn't because she hit him.
Of course she just had to run, and of course it had to be James who was lost. She landed right on top of James with her lips somewhere along the lines of James's.
This was not good.
