A/N: Well, hello peoples. Hi! Um…this is a fanficgroup surprised gasp Anyway, its about Lily and James. Yeah. And about love. That's why it's under Romance. Smart idea, I know. Right, well, I'll just get to the disclaimer then.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own any of the characters here except for Keila, Teri, Sam, Shanese, and anyone else I say I own. I am not J.K. Rowling. If I was would I be here right now? No, I would be working on the next Harry Potter book, or at least brainstorming.
Ok, to the story!
CHAPTER ONE: INTRUDUCTIONS AND OFF-TOPIC AUTHORS!
Lily Evans sat at the edge of her bed at her house. She was reading a letter. A letter from Hogwarts.
Dear Miss Evans,
I am pleased to inform you that you are the new Head Girl of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Sincerely,
Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster.
Only nineteen words, not counting the greeting, but they meant so much. She was Head Girl. Lily Evans. Actually, she could understand it. She was one of the top students of her age group. She wondered who Head Boy would be. With my luck it'll be James Potter.
Little did she know that somewhere else, someone else was reading a letter quite similar to her own. This person, was James Potter. James had asked Lily out a large number of times since first year. He had developed a bit of a crush then.
Every time she refused to go out with him the crush got bigger. Soon, he realized that it was much more.
He couldn't understand how she could resist him. He had his own fan club! He had dated just about all of the soon-to-be seventh year girls. Although he didn't old the record for number of girls dated since first year. His best friend and fellow Marauder did.
Sirius Black was tall, had fairly long black hair, and was an all-around ladies man. He held the record because he had dated quite a few younger girls as well. Thus, his record-holding position. Actually he and James were a lot alike. Although, James had shorter hair and a smaller fan club.
Remus Lupin, the next Marauder was the bookworm. The bookworm who also happened to be a werewolf. The other Marauders were illegal Animagus so that they could help him on the full moon.
Which brings me to the next and final Marauder. Peter Pettigrew. He didn't really catch on quick, but he was good for a laugh.
The Marauders were famous and known all around the schoool. They were huge pranksters. Of course, their favorite group of people to pick on was the unsuspecting Slytherins. Especially Snape. He had recently found out about Remus's "Furry Little Problem" as they liked to call it.
Of course Lily had friends too. The first of Lily's friends was Keila (pronounced like Kayla). She was somewhat tall and had long, brown, curly hair. She was quite smart, but a little weird. She liked cheese and pie and didn't deny it. Actually, she sometimes would walk up to a random person and say she like pie and cheese. Like I said, weird. Oh yeah, and Keila has a crush on Remus. Which will also come up after on when you find out that she is a…right. Later on. Got it.
The second of Lily's friends was Teri. Teri, short for Theresa, was shorter than Keila, had shoulder-length brown hair, freckles, and braces. Teri had a crush on Sirius, which will come up later on.
The last of Lily's friends was actually two people. The twins. The twins were Shanese and Samantha. They were identical, but Sam was taller. In their robes, it was hard to tell them apart unless they were standing next to each other. They were fairly short, had long black hair and were sort of Asian looking.
Well then, now that proper introductions have been made, we should probably get on with the story.
James actually wasn't that bad. He was a nice guy, handsome, and he could be very caring. He didn't take teasing lightly and stood up for himself and his friends. He couldn't understand. He just couldn't. She wasn't like the other girls he dated. She was different. In a good way. She was better. Why wont you just give me a chance Lily? You don't even know me. This year, you'll see me for my true self. I am a man on a mission! I can do this! YEAH! I can recruit Sirius, Remus, and Peter to help me! YEAH!
Back at Lily's house, Lily's mother was calling her.
"Lily? Lily are you up?"
" Yes, Mum, I'm up."
"Are all of your things packed?"
"Yes, Mum. They've been packed for a week now."
"Right. Well, we're leaving in an hour and a half."
"Ok, Mum."
"I'll have breakfast ready."
"Alright, Mum." Please go away. Please go away. Please. Sure enough, she heard her mother's footsteps walking away.
Lily let out a breath. She was actually very content at the moment. She would be going back. Back to Hogwarts. Back to Keila's love of cheese. Back to Teri's rambles about Sirius Black. (Told you. It'll come up a bunch more times though). Back to…James Potter! Ah! The annoying git. He was just so arrogant, bigheaded, egotistical, handsome, charming…wait a minute!
Did I just think that? No! James Potter is an arrogant prat! I do not like him the least bit!
" James, wake up!" A voice called from behind James's closed door.
" I'm already awake!" James called back.
"Really, wow!"
" Why is that so hard to believe?"
" Because you are a seventeen year-old boy who normally wouldn't get up if his life depended upon it and the only thing that would get you up is your friends or Lily Evans." His father called back.
"True, but, I'm going back to Hogwarts today. I'm anxious." James retorted.
"Yeah, Hogwarts, playing pranks, and Lily Evans. Your favorite things. All packed?"
"Yup."
"I will. I smell breakfast."
"That's the James we all know and love."
James smiled. This was going to be a good year. He was going to get Lily Evans, woman of his dreams, to go out with him.
