James sat down next to Lily and began to talk. Girls stared at him, admiringly, and boys grinned at him.
Beside the late Headboy, Lily was breathing hard. Had Dumbledore gone insane over the summer? How could his choose POTTER to be Head Boy, after all the stupid pranks he played on people with his stupid friends!
Dumbledore's finally lost it. Lily thought, shaking her head. The old man cracked.
James looked at Lily, uncertainly."Earth to Evans..."He said, waving his hand infront of her face.
She looked up, startled.
"Oh, er..." She stuttered. Well this is embarrassing.
"So, Lily and I are going to organize balls and we're going to patrol the school, twice a week. You and your partner need to choose, also, two days a week to schedule the patrol.
So, here's a sheet and you can fill your names down on the days your available"
Lily stared at James. Since when did he take things so seriously and so sensibly. Come to think of it, he hadn't even asked her out, yet.
James noticed the redhead, staring at him.
"Evans?"
She jumped for what seemed the eighth time that day.
"Sorry, I was-er-what were you saying?"She asked, feeling shame that she had to ask Potter for something.
"I was asking which day, you're free to patrol."He repeated."And am i that ugly, Evans?"He added, referring to her staring at him.
She smiled slightly and said,"I'm okay on Mondays and Wednesdays."
He nodded and replied,"I'm okay, then, too"
As the meeting went on, Lily was shocked to notice that James had not showed off once, asked her out or flash that irratating smirk of his.
She decided that he must have a high fever.
After the meeting finished, the prefects went out, except for Remus, who was talking to James.
Sirius Black, shot into the compartment. He went over to James and Remus and pretended to sob.
"Our little Jamsie is growing up. He's even Head Boy."He stopped pretending to sob.
"How did you become Head Boy, anyway, Prongs?" He asked, a smirk spreading across his handsome face.
James rolled his eyes at him.
"Padfoot, you've been asking me that, all summer. Moony should have gotten it, not me. Dumbledore probably had an accident."
"I agree on that one."
The three Marauders looked up. They hadn't noticed Lily.
Sirius smirked. "Oh, look, Prongsie! There's your lovely Lily-Flower."
Remus shook his head, tiredly.
"I am NOT his! And DO NOT call me Lily-Flower!"Lily fumed.
Sirius smirked even more, which made him look like the chesire cat(only with black hair), and said,"Oh, and temper, too"
Remus sighed and said,"Sirius, stop making fun of her. James, stop asking her out!"
"BUT I WASN'T!"James and Sirius said, both at the same time.
Remus rolled his eyes. James and Sirius, again at the same time, stuck their tongues out at him.
"I wasn't asking Evans out!"James protested.
Lily looked at him, feeling confused. For once, he was right. He hadn't ask her out, yet or tried to kiss her. Or, tried to blackmail her into going out with him, which was what happened last year. Let's just say that there was leopard printed underwear and a dung-beetle involved.
"Oh, yeah, which reminds me,"James started,"Evans, will you go-"
"NO! I WON'T go out with you, Potter!"She screamed, as she had done, many many times in the past."How many times do I have to tell you!"
James stared at her in bewilderment while Sirius started snorting with laughter.
"Evans, I wasn't going to ask you out. I was going to say,"Will you go to the Entrance Hall, after the feast, because McGonagall wants to see us."
Lily's face went as red as her hair, which made her look like she was on fire. Sirius fell onto the floor, laughing. Remus shot him a disgusted look.
"I-I-I-"She stuttered, totally embarrassed.
"Don't worry about it."Said James, with a bit of a pained look on his face.
"I-I have to go."Said Lily, quickly."See you at the Entrance Hall"
She couldn't have ran out quicker.
"Woah! You didn't ask her out, OR try to kiss her!" Sirius looked at James in amazement.
"It's great that you're finally showing her the real you, not the one, she hates."Smiled Remus.
James smiled a bit but shook his head."After the last slap she gave me, I realised that she hates me more than Snivellus"
Sirius and Remus patted him on the back, sympathetically.
"Well, you should get over her, mate."Said Sirius, soothingly.
"Yes."Agreed Remus."Wait! Did I just agree on what Sirius said!"
Sirius pretended to faint in shock. "Did Moony just agree what I said!"
James laughed."Anyway, you're right. I should get over her. This is our last year. We're gonna have fun. Though i wish she'd give me a chance"
Sirius and Remus looked at him sympathetically.
"It's time to get over her"
"I can't believe it!"Said Lily for the fifth time."He didn't even ask me out! Do you think he's planning some stupid joke on me?"
Jenny and Amy rolled their eyes, also, for the fifth time.
"Lily, I think James is growing up."Said Amy, tiredly.
"James Potter? Grow up!"Snorted Lily,"Amy, there are many things in the world that go together. 'Potter' and 'Maturity' isn't one of them!"
"As I said before,"Sighed Jenny,"You don't even know him because you never gave him a chance, so why don't you?"
Lily fumed up."I am NEVER going out with James POTTER!"
Amy and Jenny, jumped up, startled.
"Alright, alright, we get it. You're the one going on about him-"Started Jenny.
"Besides, I thought you might be relieved, he's not asking you out anymore. I mean, you hated it." Amy finished
"Of course, I hate it! I AM relieved he's not constantly asking me out. I would never go out with him, as he's a ignorant, stuck-up, arrogant, concieted, stupid-"
Lily was cut off by a booming voice.
"We have, now, arrived at Hogsmead Station. Please leave your luggage behind."
"Listen, Lily. I think James is finally getting over you."Said Amy.
"I think you also need to get over the fact that he's... well, what you think he is"
Lily sighed.
"You're right. I should get over it"
Amy and Jenny sighed with relief and they walked out of the train.
