The sky in the Great Hall was dark and misty. Kind of creepy. And speaking of creeps, the four biggest creeps in the school just entered the room. Watch out everyone, their enormous heads might reach you and suffocate you under their extreme hugeness.
Potter and Black were strutting down the hallway, winking and smiling at all the girls, who in return sighed and turned to their friends going, OH MY GOD, HE LOOKED AT ME!!!!!!!!! Freaks. Who on earth could like arrogant, pigheaded, irresistibly gorgeous … no WAIT!! I DID NOT JUST SAY THAT!!!! I LIED!!!! I LIED!!! NO NO NO!!!!!
Must never ever let Summer hear me say that. Never Ever.
Even though it's true.
NO NO NO!!!! I LIE AGAIN!!!!!! NOT TRUE, it is NOT TRUE, I TELL YOU!!!!!!!
"Alright Evans?"
The pig-head has spoken.
"I was, until you came along." I said annoyed that he disturbed my visions of him.
SHUT UP BRAIN YOU EVIL TWISTED HORRIBLE LYING THING!!!! YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS!!! NO FRIENDS!!!!!!!!!! MWHAHAHA!!!
Okay, Lily shut up.
First sign of madness, talking to yourself.
"Congratulations Potter, you've finally drove me mad." I muttered.
"Huh?" He grunted, one of his hands through his hair.
"Well done Prongs. Now that she's gone mad, maybe you'll finally start dating again. Instead of drooling over this red-head at breakfast."
"Let me remind you Black, that Potter here does not drool over Lily at breakfast." Summer said. I turned to look at her angrily. The betraying, conniving, scheming …
"- he drools over her 24/7!!!"
… lying, devious … Oh. Wait. Thanks Summer!!!
Grinning, we turned to face each other and high-fived. Ha!! Beat that Potter!!
"Hey, Prongs and I do that!! No fair!! You can't nick our things!!" Black said in a voice like a three year old.
I had had enough. And apparently so had Summer. We sat there more a moment and then I spoke, my voice filled with venom.
Well, I'd like to think it was.
"Potter. Black. You have approximately,"
"Three seconds," Summer said.
"To live"
"If you don't"
"Get lost"
"NOW!!!" We both yelled, pushing them away from our seats. To my great pleasure, Potter and Black looked rather scared and were now willingly going back to where they were sitting. Dusting my hands, I turned to Summer and said,
"We are good."
"- our new Head Boy and Girl, James Potter and Lily Evans!!" Dumbledore clapped along with the rest of the school, girls whistling when he announced Potter's name. Potter, being the arrogant prick he is, climbed on his chair and started bowing to the crowd. What a loser.
The sorting had finished and the feast was over. Usually by now, the Marauders traditional yearly prank would have been over. I hoped that it wasn't anything too big, as Gryffindor would probably be severely punished.
Dumbledore had nearly finished his speech when there was an ear-splitting bang from the other side of the hall – the Slytherin table. Everyone turned to look, then burst out laughing as they saw all of the male members in pink fluffy, tutus. Even I had to laugh at that one. Then I caught sight of Severus Snape.
He was standing in the middle of the Slytherin table, his face bewildered. But that wasn't the funny bit. He was wearing nothing but a pink sparkly bikini. I don't think I've ever laughed so much in my life. I turned to look at the Marauders. Pettigrew was off his chair, Lupin was laughing into his empty goblet and Potter was holding onto his chair and sides for support, doubled up. But Black wasn't even trying to contain his laughter. He was on the floor, tears streaming down his face and laughing hysterically. Lupin looked down on him.
"And that isn't even the funniest bit yet Padfoot." He said, grinning.
Next thing I knew there was another bang and Snape had a microphone in his hand. How they managed to bewitch it to work inside Hogwarts I don't know. Still laughing, me and Summer turned to face each other. What was going on?
Then the sound quiet music broke out. Snape had a dreamy look in his eyes and he raised the microphone to his mouth.
An extremely out-of-tune male voice trying-to-sing-in-a-femimine-way-but-unsucceding started to sing a Muggle song that I knew vaguely. Titanic.
Summer and I looked at each other again. Then hearing Snape's voice sing 'my heart will go on and on', we burst out laughing at exactly the same time. The whole school was erupting with laughter and even McGonagall had a half smile playing across her lips.
Snape reached the bit where Celine (who sings the song) absolutely pelts it out. His voice shook on the 'open the door' bit and he raised his hand up like an opera singer. I couldn't contain myself then. Me, Lily Evans, Head Girl, and master of containing herself, couldn't contain it any longer. Tears of laughter streaked out of my eyes, and I put both my hand on the table to prevent myself from rolling around on the floor like Black was.
All the other male Slytherin members suddenly joined Snape on the table at the last line and screeched it out. I actually fell off my chair then. My hands gave way, and next thing I knew I was staring at the ceiling, giggling hysterically. And I wasn't the only one. Potter, Black, Pettigrew and Summer were all on the floor, clutching their stomachs. I think Pettigrew nearly wet himself. The song ended and I looked up to see Slytherin looking extremely embarrassed. Snape was looking horrified at the pink glittery microphone in his hand. Luckily for them when the music had stopped they had returned to normal clothing. Trying to regain myself I looked up at the misty sky to see two words spread across it.
Welcome Back!!
I exited the Great Hall later with Summer, and walked to the Gryffindor Common Room. I was going there first before I went to my new Heads Common Room. Which I kind of didn't know where it was.
Okay, okay, I don't have a clue where my new Common Room is. That's why I was going back. To see if I could find Potter.
That sounds so wrong. Me, actually wanting to find Potter. Ugh. I thought the day would never come. By that, I of course mean that in a bad way. You know the day would never come bit. Oh, I'll just shut up now.
The Fat Lady swung open when Summer uttered the password. We climbed in and I searched around for Potter. Once again, that sounds so wrong. I feel dirty.
I spotted him over in the corner with his friends. Just what I needed. I marched over, and saw Potter and Black playing wizard chess and Remus reading a book. Peter was drooling over Potter as usual. Only Remus noticed me. He looked at me quizzically, but didn't say anything.
"Hey, no fair! No cheating allowed!!" Potter said looking up at Black crossly.
"I'm not cheating. Just using my … um my … Damn, what's the word?"
"Initiative." Remus said, not looking up from his book.
"AH-HA!! That's the one!! I was just using my initiative." Black said, triumphantly. I smirked slightly. Boys.
Just as Potter opened his mouth to retort something back, Remus, still not lowering his book, said,
"Hello Lily."
Potter's head shot up and his hand went instinctively to his hair. I'm telling you, this guy's got problems.
"Lilykins!!" He said, looking at me and grinning.
I raised my fist and cracked my knuckles. I was not in the mood to be dealing with James Potter.
"I mean, Lily." He said hastily.
I smirked. Job accomplished.
"So what brings you to us, Evans?" Black said, smirking back at me.
I sighed. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm just off to make a huge prat of myself in front of the Marauders, and act like a little damsel in distress. Great. Just great.
"Does Potter know where the Head's Common Room is?" I said, looking at Remus.
Remus grinned. Perfect. The only slightly-normal one grinned. Fantastic. That now means the others will either have fits of laughter when they hear my little story or they'll think of some plan to sabotage me when they show me. Wonderful.
"I-don't-know-where-it-is-so-could-he-show-me?" I said very quickly and all in one breath.
Black grinned mischievously. Uh-oh. But when I turned to Potter and expected him to be wearing the exact same grin, I found that he was blushing and looking at Remus. Odd.
Remus nodded slightly and went back to his book. I frowned between the two of them.
"Yeah sure, I was just heading over there myself." Potter said, smiling at me.
My mouth dropped open in shock. Potter was not planning some plan or rolling around hysterically on the floor. I was actually slightly scared. What was he up to?
Black looked at his friend and pulled a face. Then he jumped up.
"QUICK!! GET HIM TO THE HOSPITAL WING!!!!!! I FEAR FOR HIS LIFE!!!!!"
"Okay, drama queen, what's up?" Summer said, her eyebrows furrowed and a smile twitching at the corner of her mouth.
I still just stood there. Then I looked at Potter. He was still smiling at me. Potter was smiling at me. He wasn't grinning mischievously, smirking, leering at me. Just smiling. And it was a different smile to the smirk I saw everyday. It lit up his features and made his eyes glow.
"Lily?? LILY!!!!" I felt a sharp tingling across my cheek. I blinked and saw Summer waving in front of my face.
"Ow!! What was that for?" I said angrily, as I felt my hot cheek.
Summer laughed.
"You were practically drooling. It was embarrassing me." She clutched her stomach, laughing when she saw my face.
"Whatever. Potter, you going to show me this Common Room then?"
"Sure. Come on then. See you guys later!" He said, waving to his friends.
"Bye traitor and slapping friend!" I said to Summer before marching off with Potter.
The portrait to the Heads Common Room was a little fat man, with white hair. He looked at us and smiled.
"You must be the new Heads." He said, glancing at our badges, "Password."
I gulped. Password? How come I didn't know where this damn Common Room was or what the password was???
"Nimblewitt." Potter said, and the portrait swung open to reveal a beautifully decorated room. We walked in and I gasped. The room had been decorated red and gold, obviously for Gryffindor, and there were two sofas and two armchairs around a roaring fire. There was a massive bookcase in one corner and a refrigerator in another. There was a desk at the side of the room with quills and parchment to the side of it. There were two staircases at the end of the room, one to the right and one to the left. I looked at Potter, and he too was staring in awe at the room. I walked over to the staircases and saw the door to the left had a gold plate with 'Lily' carved on it and the other had one with 'James'. I walked up to my room and pushed to door open. I gasped again.
There was a massive double bed in the middle of it. It was painted green and had matching green curtains and quilt. There was a desk in the corner and pictures round the room. There was one of all my family, a couple of just my mum and dad, and several of Summer and me, either pulling funny faces or just smiling. I closed the door and turned to find Potter coming out of his room. We looked at each other for a moment then Potter said,
"Goodnight Lily."
'Goodnight Lily'? I was now scared for his health too just like Black. He never just said 'goodnight'. It was always something along the lines of 'Sweet dreams my dearest Lily flower'. Or similar. But never just 'Goodnight Lily'.
"Night Potter." I said, turning into my new beautiful bedroom. I collapsed onto my bed and felt my cheeks. They were hot. Oh my god. I had been blushing at James Potter.
Shit.
