Chapter 4: The Eyes Have It

James's Side

From the moment I looked into her eyes I knew I loved her.

Although I was only eleven, I knew as sure as the sun would rise that this was the only girl for me.

Her eyes were beautifully green, and sparkled with fiery passion and determination. I couldn't take my eyes of her, even though there was some one else in the carriage speaking.

She turned to face her friend, and I could see her hair was a magnificent shade of red. And then she smiled, and nothing else mattered. I wasn't kidding myself, I knew that smile wasn't for me, but still one can dream.

"Hello, I'm Bridget Allenbea, this is our first year." Said her curly haired friend,

Come on, I don't care about you, what's her name.

"And I am Lily Evans." She said politely, but even I, who would have at this point jumped of a cliff for her, couldn't help but notice the coldness in her tone.

"Pleased to make your acquaintance," said Sirius with a mock bow.

I'd just met him on the platform, I'd managed to escape mum who was crying her eyes out, but this time her tears were those of joy.

I hurried onto the train and stuffed my stuff into a compartment. I was sitting alone when the door was flung open with a bang.

With out a word the boy walked in and flopped down on the seat next to me.

"I'm Sirius." He said extending his hand.

"Umm… That's great… I'm really happy to be here…" why on earth would anyone start a conversation with 'I'm serious' I mean serious people are generally very boring. Great I thought to myself, I'm stuck with a guy who's probably going to be boring.

The guy was grinning broadly, he had amazingly white teeth.

"My name is Sirius, not that much of a normal name, but at least it's not something boring like James."

I grinned and shook his hand. "And I'm James, James Potter"

"Well, glad to meet you, I was half expecting you to say Bond, but nevertheless I'll cope with Potter. I just hope you're not as boring as your name." his grin was infectious.

For all his blunt manner, I couldn't help but like him instantly.

"So Potter, you expecting anyone to be joining you in this prime positioned compartment," he sprawled out over the seat opposite me. "You see my friend, I have it on good authority, that this is the first stop for the food trolley." He gave me a sly wink and sunk into the seat fishing out a fitful of coins.

Several hours later we sat surrounded by empty wrappers, it is amazing how much food two boys can eat if they put their mind to it.

Sirius looked up at me and said "let's go exploring."

And that's how we ended up meeting her.

I was pulled out of my remembering's

"Sirius Black at your serves." And with out a invitation he flopped down on the seat opposite the two girls.

"So your first years too?" asked lily, Lily what a beautiful name.

"Umm, yeah." I muttered back. Why was she looking at me like that, it was almost like… she hated me, but we'd never met, I would have remembered those eyes.

"You from wizarding families? Or you Muggle born?" Sirius asked casually, he seemed to have taken an interest in Bridget, just as long as he didn't get any ideas about Lily.

At this I defiantly saw a flash of anger in lily's eyes, but it was soon gone.

"No, both from Muggle families and proud of it." I saw Bridget shoot her a warning glance, what was going on here. I looked at Sirius for help but he was already of talking about magic he knew and so on so forth, he told me this already so I just sat back and took the chance to examine Lily closely.

She had beautifully pale skin, like princesses do in movies. She was about average hight, and her hair was stunningly red. As she turned her head to Sirius, it swayed around in her face. God she was gorgeous, her lips were cherry red and her features were soft and inviting. But I kept going back to those eyes.

Being green was not what made them special, I don't know how to describe it, they seemed to reveal what she wouldn't dare say. In them I saw a fiery spirit that wouldn't be quenched. As was studying her she glanced my way. And this time she gave me a smile, not a happy to see you smile, a fake smile that seemed to say, watch out.

But that was ridiculous; I hadn't done anything yet, had I?

Sirius had finished his magic speech and was eyeing of the pile of chocolate frogs next too Bridget.

"Just take one before you start to drool." Said Bridget and threw one at him, it hit him on the head; it rebounded off and flew out the open door. With out a word, he went scouring of after it.

So there I was all alone with Lily, the girl of my dreams and her friend,

Ok, I thought to myself, say something really witty and funny and make her laugh, whatever you do don't say something you'll regret later, don't make yourself look like a looser.

"Is… umm… is that… Morgan Lefey?" I asked pointing at a chocolate frog card next to Lily.

She didn't answer me; she just looked at me like I wasless importantthen an insignificant speck of dust.

"It's Le Fay." Her voice was dripping withdistain, but what hadI done to deserve such hatered?

"Here, take it." Her friend threw it to me, but midway through its' flight a pale hand shot out and grabbed it.

"It's mine." Her eyes were so cold that they made my words freeze in my throat.

And with that she stood up and walked out without another word. Her friend jumped up and followed her, apologising and saying that they just needed to use the bathroom.

Sirius who stood open mouthed at the door, looked at me in shock.

"What the hell was that?"
