Previously: "You too Potter." Lily said, extracting her hand from his grasp and turning to leave. She hastily wiped her hand on her jeans and continued to search the crowd for a familiar face. What she found shocked her. She saw a boy of the age of 17, leaning against the wall closest to her.

He had short curly brown hair and a fantastic smile. At the moment he had a welcoming smile and a familiar twinkle in his brown eyes.

"Adam!"

Lily ran forward, letting go of her trunk and jumping into her best friend's arms.

"Hey Lils! I missed you so much!"

"Ditto!" Lily said into his shoulder.

Adam released her and held her at arms length so that he could get a good look at her. As he inspected her he noticed something over her shoulder. There were four boys staring at them, one with his mouth hanging open and his eyes wide in disbelief. He smirked to himself.

"Hey Lils, there are four boys looking at us. One of them looks like he wants kills me." Adam said, laughing into Lily's hair. Lily pulled slightly away, so that she could look into his face.

"The one who looks like he wants to kill you, does he have messy black hair and glasses?" Lily figured that it was James Potter who was looking at them, but she dreaded finding out if it was true or not.

"Yes, he does." Lily sighed and rested her head on Adam's chest and mumbled, "That's James Potter.'

Adam's eyes lit up with mirth, "That is the famous James Potter? The one who you complain to me about every summer? The one who asks you out every day? The very James Potter who in first year changed your hair green? Who in second year made—"

"Yes!" Lily covered Adam's mouth with her hand. "Yes, that is THE James Potter."

Adam smirked again. He hugged Lily yet again, staring over her shoulder the whole time at the jealous messy haired boy. He saw the boy go red with anger and ball his hands into fists. Adam slowly released Lily and grabbed her hand and forgotten trunk in each hand. Lily looked up into Adam's amused face, knowing what he was trying to do, and decided to play along.

"You are a bad man Adam, a bad man indeed." Lily laughed as they exited the station, neither of them looking back at the four pairs of eyes that were looking at them.

James' POV

James was ecstatic. Lily had just taken his hand and was now shaking it. He decided to take a risk and slowly, looking deeply into her eyes, kissed her hand.

"You too Potter." She said as she removed her hand from his grasp. As she was walking away he saw her wipe her hand on her jeans. James gave a small smile.

'She's rubbing my kiss in' he thought.

He was startled out of his thoughts by Lily's shout of 'Adam'. He saw her, as if in slow motion, run and jump into another man's arms. James felt a horrible pain in his chest. He didn't know who this guy was. And everybody that went to Hogwarts knew that Lily was James', and any bloke stupid enough to ask her out, or even flirt with her, immediately became the Marauder's number one target. They were even put before Snape!

But this boy was different, for one he didn't attend Hogwarts, so he didn't know the rules. And two, it appeared that he was a muggle.

James watched hopelessly, unable to look away, as this boy whispered in his Lily's beautifully precious ear and then hugged her while he stared at James. James could not believe it; this boy was purposefully trying to infuriate him.

The boy then grabbed Lily's hand and trunk and left with her!

'Lily never let anyone carry her trunk for her before. Not even in first year when it was bigger than her and I offered to help her. So why is she letting that…that…troll hugger carry it?'

"Jamie." James turned around only to be embraced in a tight hug by his mother.

"Mum, it's good to see you too, but it would even be better if I could breath." James gasped out.

"Oh, sorry honey, where is Siri—oh Sirius, come here and give me a hug." Mrs. Potter demanded, smothering Sirius as well.

"Mum, I think that you should let go of Sirius," James said while trying to pry his mom off of his friend, "and we should head home."

"Actually," Mr. Potter had come to join the group, "Your mother and I have decided that we are going to go on our second honeymoon, so you and Sirius will be staying at a bed and breakfast."

James' mouth dropped open. "A bed and breakfast! Why?"

"Because the last time that we left you and Sirius by yourselves you almost burnt down the house." Mrs. Potter explained. "Now say goodbye to Remus and Peter and let's get going."

James, still flabbergasted, bid both Remus and Peter a good summer. Slowly, grudgingly, Sirius and James followed Mr. and Mrs. Potter out of the station and to the unpredictable summer ahead.
