Chapter two; solutions to Potter problems

When James woke the next morning, he looked the room to see Remus sat up in bed reading a school textbook while the other two marauders were still fast asleep.

'Morning Prongs' called Remus, looking up from his book.

'Morning Moony, I see the clowns aren't up yet?'

Remus smiled as his remark. 'Did you decide how you're going to get Evans to like you?'

'Unfortunately no, but don't tell Padfoot because you know what he'll be like'

'Too late' mumbled Sirius, from behind his bed sheets.

'Look mate, you know what my opinion is on this subject, but if you really want her then go for it!'

'Really?' Said James, lightening his mood.

'Its not really my business anyway, just don't be too suprised when she turns you down'

'Who's to say she's going to turn me down, I've got as much chance with her as the next bloke!' Declared James before he marched out of the room in a huff.

He fast-walked down the stairs, not really looking where he was going. He continued walking like this until he walked into someone, knocking them over and falling down next to them.

When he opened his eyes he cursed himself as he saw the person he had just knocked over was none other than the every girl that they had just been discussing.

'Potter! What do you think you're doing!? Is it so much to ask for you to look where you're going!?' Was the angry response he got when they had both picked them selves off the ground.

'I am so sorry about that' James stuttered as Lily glared at him.

'Can I walk you down to breakfast to make up for it?'

'Wha- no! Seriously Potter, leave me alone!'

And with Lily turned on her heal, before stopping and turning round to face him again. 'And I think you should get changed out of your pjs before you even think about going down to breakfast'

James's face turned read as he realised he was still in pyjamas. He watched her walk away before he ran up the stairs to get dressed.

'So let me get this straight, you knocked her over, offered to walk her down to breakfast before she told you to leave her alone'

'That pretty much sums it up, Moony'

'Hey it could be worse, I mean she could have just left you to go down to breakfast in your pjs!'

'Thanks for the support Padfoot' said James dryly.

James had been telling gather marauders of the incident that had happened earlier that morning. That were sat eating lunch in the great hall.

'wel can' ge anee wors can id?' Said Sirius with his mouth full.

'what did he say?' Said Peter, looking confused.

'He said that it can't get any worse can it' said Remus, who was used to the boys talking with their mouths full.

James spent the rest of the day starring at Lily when she wasn't looking, even after McGonagall shot him a cold glare and told him off for not paying attention in her class.

'Mr Potter, if you have no inttention of paying in my class, you will have to serve detention to make up for the time that you've wasted! 5 points from Gryffindor!' Snapped McGonagall, who annoyed at James, after she had spent the last half an hour informing the class how to transfigur a black bird into a lantern, only to find James not even looking at her.

Now that transfiguration was over, the boys had the rest of the afternoon to them selves.

'Right, do any of you guys have any ideas on how I can get Evans to like me?' Said James in a huffy voice.

'James, did you even listen to what I said last night? You should try to show her that you care about her' replied Remus.

'But how do that exactly? I don't really know anything about her except that she's in Gryffindor, she's a muggle born and that she hates me!' Proclaimed James angrily.

'Calm down, maybe you should try lying low for a while before you try to get to know her' replied Remus calmly.

'But no matter what I do it always seems to annoy her!' James whinedheart

'Don't worry about it James, she'll come around, you'll see'

'How?'

'Love potion?' Peter piped up excitedly.

'I don't want to use a love potion! Or a hex of any sort!' cried James.

'You won't have to'

'I wish I could be as confident about this as you are, Moony, I really do' mumbled James.

'It will all be fine, Prongs, you'll see. Now where in the name of Merlin has Padfoot got to?'

'He's down in the kitchens' chimed Peter.

'Should have guessed, really' laughed Remus.
