I do not own Harry Potter or the characters.

Ch. 7 Hot Heads

The time had finally come. James was pulling his trunk through the barrier of platform 9 ¾ for the last time. Unlike many of the other seventh years however, he didn't feel reminiscent of sad. He had butterflies in his stomach. He felt like it was first year all over again, but better.

He was heading back to Hogwarts and Lily Evans was his girlfriend. Oh, and they would be living together. It didn't get much better than that. Yes, there was the war going on and other stressors in his life. But today, he decided to focus on the fact that he was the luckiest boy in the school. Scratch that. He was the luckiest boy in the world.

With Sirius in tow, he climbed onto the Hogwarts Express and found the designated Marauder's compartment. Peter had already made himself comfortable and was looking out the window.

"Hey Pete."

"Hey guys! James, don't you have to be in the prefects compartment Mr. Head Boy?"

"Oh, shut it. Lily said the meeting doesn't start until halfway through the train ride. I mean, what would there be to talk about for that long anyway?"

"Hey mates." Remus came in, looking tired and worn.

"Moony you look awful."

"Always the flatterer, Padfoot. Full moon is tomorrow night."

"Perfect! Our first adventure of the year." Sirius clapped him on the back.

Lily, running late as she always did on September 1st, ran through the barrier after saying a quick goodbye to her parents. When she was on the other side, she shrank her trunk so she could put it in her pocket while she ran on to the train. She took a deep breath of relief when she got up the steps just as the Hogwarts Express started to move.

"Lily!" Dorcas Meadowes, a sixth year Gryffindor called. She had been a prefect last year and the girls had become quite close.

"Dorcas! How was your summer?"

"It was great! But I suppose I'm happy to be back. Congratulations on head girl! I knew you would get it. How was yours?"

"Thanks. Um...mine was, eventful."

"And by eventful, do you mean the fact that you and James Potter have finally started dating?" Dorcas smirked.

"How did you know?" Lily blushed.

"Alice. But after the beach party, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole school knew by the time we get to Hogwarts. Anyway, I should go put my trunk away, I'll see you later at the meeting!"

Lily laughed. Dorcas was nice and fun, but there was also something about her that made her so easy to get along with. Like how she didn't pry or make a big deal about dating James. Dorcas was the type to wait until Lily would come to her, and she found that refreshing.

Lily was looking for her friends compartment when she heard a loud voice call "Evans!" James had come out into the hall.

"We're back to surnames, Potter?" She smiled as he wrapped his arms around her waist.

"You're right, maybe we should save those for certain occasions now." He kissed her cheek. "Come on, everyone is back this way."

When they got to the Marauders' compartment and opened the sliding doors, Lily realized someone must have put an expansion charm on the little section of the train. There were at least ten people in there, all with plenty of room.

"Happy September 1st Lily!" Alice called. She was always excited about going back to school. She was stroking Frank's hair, who was laying down with his knees bent and his head in her lap.

Lily laughed. They made the perfect couple. "Thanks Alice. You too." The rest of the Marauders and the girls didn't bother saying a real hello since they had just seen her a few days ago. Marlene was caught up in putting makeup on; a floating makeup mirror in front of her. Sirius and Peter were playing a game of exploding snap, and Mary was reading while Remus was already fast asleep on her shoulder.

Benjy Fenwick, who had been pulling out his books, stood up and gave Lily a big bear hug. "Thanks for finally saying yes, Lil. It makes all those years of listening to this wanker cry over you worth it." Lily looked at James, whose cheeks were red with fury. "Okay, he didn't actually cry, but there was a fair amount of moaning." Lily laughed.

"Good to see you too, Benjy. Now we'll leave you alone so you can do the homework that you've put off until now." Lily gave him a fake McGonagall stern look.

"Yes, Ms. Head Girl." He saluted her and sat back down. James took Lily's now normal sized trunk and put it away while she sat down. He put his arm around her and they sat for a minute watching their friends.

"So, are you ready to take on your new role? We never did go over anything for the meeting." Lily asked.

"Remus told me a lot, but I think you might have to take the lead on the first meeting." He blushed. Lily knew he wouldn't admit to being nervous, but it was adorable seeing him like this. "You know, just so I can get the feel of things."

"You're a natural leader. You have nothing to worry about." She gave him a peck on the lips, but as she pulled away James grabbed her waist and deepened the kiss.

"Ew. Get a room guys." Marlene said. James finally let go of Lily.

"How long do you think this honeymoon stage will last?" Sirius asked, looking at Marlene. Lily looked at James and giggled.

"It'll never end." Mary said. The group looked at her. "I mean, the sexual tension has been building up for three years. Trust me, once they start shagging, we won't want to be around them." She went back to reading.

"Hello, we're right here. And I think we have a bit more control than that, Mary." Lily said, although she wasn't sure she believed it.

"Would you like me to enlighten the boys on some confessions you made in Paris?"

"No!" Lily said at the same time Sirius said, "Yes!"

"Mary, I'm never telling you anything about my love life again. And I think I'm going to go to the prefect's compartment early if you guys are done chastising James and I. Marlene, Mary, you are the queens of PDA. And Sirius Black, don't get me started on you. So the next time you have a problem with me kissing my boyfriend, keep it to yourselves!" Lily stormed out.

"Hey." He found her leaning against the window of the luxurious compartment, red faced with anger. She looked at him and smiled. James came and sat next to her, pulling her into his lap. "So, boyfriend, huh?"

Lily blushed. "Oh, I - well- er…"

"Lils, I'm kidding. Of course I'm your boyfriend. But you know what that means?" Lily gave him a questioning look. "You are my girlfriend. Lily Evans is officially the girlfriend of James Potter. Wow, I can't believe I'm saying that out loud and it's in the present tense. And it's true."

"You know you've seen me naked right?"

"Just let me have this moment." He said, grinning.

"Of course, you are more moved by the fact that I called you my boyfriend than the fact that I've given you a hand job. Well technically, I've also gone down on you, but that was Lola. " Was Lily purposely saying all of these dirty things?

"Mmm… but the same wonderful mouth." Their lips were inches away. James heard the blinds shut and the door lock. Lily dropped her wand to the floor and put her arms around his neck.

"I believe it's you that has the magical tongue." Lily smirked and James pounced. He pulled her off his lap and laid her down. He smiled and kissed her hungrily, hovering over her. She bent her knees and wrapped her legs around his waist. Her skirt rode up when she did this to reveal a lacy pink thong with a tiny bow on the front. James started grinding his hips, feeling the heat between her legs and letting her feel his rock hard knob.

He kissed her neck then asked, "Will anyone come in?"

"No," she said, fluttering her eyes "I put a distraction charm on the compartment and locked it. And the meeting isn't for another two hours."

"Perfect." James replied. Suddenly, he grabbed her thighs to unwrap them from around his waist and stood up. Lily looked at him, pouting. He smirked.

James grabbed her hips and moved her body to face forward with her feet on the ground. He then knelt down and spread her legs apart.

"James," she sighed. It was all she could manage in her lust as she moved to the edge of the seat to give him better access.

James was going to explode, but he was dying to taste her. Slowly, he tickled his fingers up her inner thigh and pulled down the sexy knickers she had been wearing. And, without warning, he dove in.

"Oh my god! Fuck!" His head was buried under her skirt as he began licking up and down her slit, which was already glimmering with wetness. He then buried his tongue inside her and she had to bite her lip to keep from crying out. Even though she had put a silencing charm on the compartment, her natural reaction in the middle of a train was to keep quiet.

James was hitting all the right spots, however, and staying quiet was getting increasingly difficult. When he added a finger along with his tongue, she couldn't help it.

"James! Oh god James, don't stop!" She could feel herself getting close and grabbed a fistful of his hair, pushing him further. She finally gave a muffled scream, thrusting against James tongue and fingers and came.

James pulled his head from under her skirt. "My god Lily, you are the most incredible creature I've ever laid eyes on." She barely heard him. She was still out of breath from her orgasm, looking completely dazed.

"Magical. Tongue." Was all that could come out of her mouth. After a few minutes she sighed and sat up again.

"Now we must do something about this before the meeting. No one will take a head boy seriously if he has a hard-on during the first meeting." She teased. In an impressive amount of time, she had worked his belt and pulled down his trousers and boxers to allow his cock to spring free.

James was in paradise as his girlfriend sucked him off. He couldn't help but hold her head so she would go deeper. He knew he wouldn't last long, but at this point he didn't care. After a few minutes of attempting to control, he exploded inside her mouth. She swallowed every last drop of his seed with a smile. He was going to die.

When they had composed themselves and sat back down. Lily picked up her wand to undo the charms she put on the compartment.

"I think they might be right, Lily. Now that we're together, I don't know if I'm ever going to be able to stop touching you." He nibbled her ear and she giggled.

"Well it's a good thing we're sharing a dorm then, isn't it?"

"Ahh yes. I can't wait to see the heads dorm." James pulled away and lay down with his head in Lily's lap. She took some papers out of her backpack.

"So, what shall we go over first? The meeting or what you are going to do about the Quidditch team?"

"What's wrong with the Quidditch team?"

"James, two players graduated. And I'm not so sure Caradoc will be up for playing this year." The Gryffindor seeker, Caradoc Dearborn was a very good flyer. However, in last year's final match he had taken a bludger to the head, falling off his broom and giving him several injuries. He still hunched a little from his broken ribs, which took the longest to heal.

"Nah. He'll be fine."

"Alright then. Shall we go over the names of the prefects then?"

"Hit me." James smirked.

"Remus told you all of them?"

"Yes."

"Alright, do Slytherins. All of them." Lily crossed her arms.

"Well we don't know the 5th years. But here it goes. 6th years are- Rodolphus Lestrange and Jennifer Parkinson. 7th years are Snivellus and the future Mrs. Malfoy." Lily laughed.

"Wait, Narcissa Black is marrying a Malfoy?"

"Lucius."

"Wow. Well, as much as I dislike those two, it'd be great if you could call them Severus and Narcissa when they are in our presence."

"He calls me Potter. I will be calling him Snape. But I'll promise not to call the slime-ball any names to his face. At least during Prefect meetings." Lily rolled her eyes, but she figured it was the most reasonable deal.

"Fair enough. How about the rest of the prefects?"

"No problem." James started saying names as if he was discussing the weather. "6th year Ravenclaws are Carolina Figg and Samuel Abbot, 7th are Hestia Jones and Kingsley Shacklebolt. The Hufflepuff 6th years are Bertha Jorkins and Tom Macmillan. 7th year Hufflepuffs are Joanna Clearwater and Amos Diggory. Last but not least, our lions. 6th years are Dorcas Meadowes and Michael Johnson. 7th are Emmeline Vance and Remus."

"Not bad, Potter."

"Thank you, my dear." They discussed for the next ten minutes about how to organize patrol schedules, Hogsmeade weekends, and other common heads' duties.

James sighed. "Now, moving on. If you know so much about quidditch, what do you think I should do?"

"I think you should hold tryouts as soon as possible, so the new team has plenty of time to, well, work as a team."

"That's it? No other advice?"

"Well, I could tell you who I think are the proper choices, but I wouldn't want to sway the captain. After all, you're the expert."

"Fair enough, but I'd still like your opinion. I promise I won't let it change my decision, but it could help."

"If you insist. But this is just my theory; you know I'm complete rubbish at the sport. So it's possible my suggestions are complete rubbish too." James laughed and nudged her.

"You are also brilliant, so go on."

Lily thought for a moment. "You need a chaser and a keeper. And possibly a seeker. I think you should give Sirius another chance. He told me he's been practicing every day, but he's nervous because he doesn't want to pressure you to put him on the team. He knows he wasn't good enough last time, but I think he's improved a lot. Marlene is on the team as the other chaser. No need to replace her. For keeper, I think you'll have some good options. Emmeline is pretty good. But you may want to take on a younger seeker. I know there's one of two 5th years that would get the job done. Jimmy McKinnon is one of them. I mean, next year there will literally be no Gryffindor quidditch team if you don't get one or two young players. If Caradoc doesn't come back, I'd recommend doing the same for the seeker position."

"But what if the 7th years are better?"

"That's your decision. If it were fairly close, I personally would take the risk and make that sacrifice. Its called investing."

"Investing?"

"Yes, James. As much as you want the cup this year, wouldn't it also feel good to know you've trained some younger Gryffindors, bringing them success as well? You already have a good chance of winning it anyway. I don't see how it could hurt." James looked at her and grinned.

"Interesting."

"Something to think about."

"I like your ideas, Lils. And for the record, I've been playing with Sirius all summer and I've been trying to convince him to try out, so I'm glad he's considering it."

"Good. Now all we need is Marlene to ask him and that'll be the final push."

"Perfect." James gave her a high five then a peck on the lips. Just as he pulled away he heard the compartment door slide open. It was a Ravenclaw girl that Lily recognized but couldn't remember her name. She was the 5th year prefect, and she looked a little embarrassed at interrupting them. She had on her school robes, which James thought was silly since they still had at least two hours left.

"Crap! We are supposed to have our robes on before the meeting!" Lily half whispered to James. "Would you excuse us for a moment…"

"Hailey." The girl blushed.

"We'll be right back, Hailey." James winked at the girl as he grabbed his school robes and ran off behind Lily.

"Come on prince bloody charming." They stuffed themselves into the bathroom and changed quickly. They decided it would be best to face away from each other to prevent any temptations. They ran back to the compartment, pinning their badges on their robes on the way.

When they returned, three more prefects had arrived, and were sitting down next to Hailey. Luckily, Hailey had pulled out a book to read while they waited. One of the other prefects James did not recognize, but the other two were Hestia and Kingsley, the school's longest running couple. Kingsley asked Hestia to escort her to the Halloween feast during their first year, and the rest was history. Right now he had his arm around her shoulders and was playing with a loose strand of her hair as they talked.

"I'm Kingsley, this is Hestia. What's your name?" Kingsley asked the new prefect before James could speak up.

"Christian Jordan. Hufflepuff."

"Nice to meet you Christian. Apparently our head boy and girl have momentarily gone mute. They're James and Lily."

"Thanks. I know who they are." Christian replied with a little laugh.

"We haven't gone mute. I was just about to introduce myself, Kingsley." James said.

The rest of the group piled in within the next couple minutes. The tension was palpable between the Slytherins and Gryffindors, particularly Snape and James. Thankfully, there were no hexes or fists thrown, but the glares were something out of a horror film.

With the exception of a few hiccups and mumbled insults from the Slytherins, Lily felt the first meeting was a success. They managed to work out the first month's patrol schedules by doing a simple sign up sheet, and going over protocols for emergencies. Lily finished by reminding everyone to help the first years after the feast tonight and finding classes tomorrow.

When the prefects finally cleared out, James took a deep breath. "Well that wasn't so bad."

"I told you you'd be a natural. Now would you be a gent and go find us some food? I think we missed the trolley and I'm starving." Lily asked as she laid down.

"Well we musn't have that. Let me see what I have." Five minutes later, a little picnic was spread out before them. There were pretzels, chocolate frogs, treacle tarts, mini sandwiches, and butterbeer. As a pot of tea started steaming in mid air, Lily couldn't hide how impressed she was.

"You came prepared." Lily watched as the teapot poured itself into a cup.

"As I do for all occasions." He smirked and wiggled his eyebrows at her.

"Must you make everything sexual?" Lily laughed. "But seriously, James. This is amazing. Thank you."

"Of course. I'll do anything for my girlfriend." He squeezed her side. "We can't eat all the chocolate frogs though, I promised Moony I'd give him a few." Lily gave him an odd look.

"Moony…huh." She said, to herself, smiling.
