She stepped away from the window. Gryffindor had won the Quidditch game against Slytherin. Great, Lily thought, now I won't be able to finish my homework. Sighing Lily cleared the table full of books and sat waiting for a crowd to barge in. Lily loved Quidditch but was terrified of heights. The last thing she wanted to do was get up in those stands that were so far from the nice, stable ground.

A few minutes later, the door open and a huge mob of Gryffindors came in. They all started talking about the game, all the exciting things that happened. Aimee looked around the common room and found Lily quickly. Lily noticed and waved to her friend. When Lily and Aimee started talking the door opened for the second time. James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter all stepped through with a lot of food in their hands. The party to celebrate the victory of their win just started.

"Come on Lily, join the party. We made it to the finals! You can't possibly tell me you don't care," once Aimee was started on Quidditch she won't stop. She's just like the guys.

"If I join the party will you stop talking?" Aimee nodded and Lily got up and disappeared into the crowd. Normally Lily enjoyed the parties and had a fun time but today she just wanted to relax and finish her homework.

"Hey Lily! Did you watch me play today in Quidditch. I got five goals in today. I was a little off I know but I guess I can't be perfect all the time." James was now pushing through the group of people trying to get to Lily. Lily was pushing through the people trying to run away from James and get to her dormitory. Unfortunately for Lily James was faster.

"So," James tried to put his arm around her shoulder but Lily pushed it away. "There's a Hogsmede trip next weekend. You wanna go with me?"

"James for umpteenth time, I would never ever go out with you."

"Not even if I were the last good-looking guy on earth?" James asked back.

"If you're 'good looking' then I don't want to know what ugly looks like," Lily snapped back.

"Should I take that as a yes or a no?" Once again, James acted as if he had a brain of a four year-old. "Uggh" Lily had enough of James, so she walked away.

"Tough luck mate. Maybe tomorrow you'll do better." Sirius Black just turned up next to James.

"What's the difference if he asks her tomorrow?" Remus came over to his two friends.

"It won't be today." Peter was now with his group of best friends. James, Sirius and Peter started laughing. "You guys are so immature" Remus said with a smile on his face. "Oh by the way Sirius you're girlfriends here."

"Hi Sirius! I didn't get a chance to say good game today. Are we still going on that date tomorrow?"

"Elle would I ever cancel a date with you?" Sirius put on an innocent face while the other marauders, as they call themselves, tried to hold in their laughter.

"You did three other times because you had detention. But you don't have one tomorrow, right?

"I don't have one tomorrow but I do have detention all week."

"What did you do to get detention all week?" Elle, for some reason, was shocked that Sirius landed himself in detention for a week.

"Nothing… I didn't do anything," Sirius lied. "Well I have to go so I'll see you tomorrow." And with that the marauders swiftly left to their dorm also known as the marauders room.
