'Meh, what would I care about walk-in-wardrobes when the most b-e-a-utiful girl is just across the common room?' James flung himself into bed and began snoring loudly, dreaming of Lily and lilies.
'This is great! Except from the fact that Potter is next door. Oh I hate that guy! How can he be Head Boy? I really don't get it! Lily was soon fast asleep…dreamless…

Next morning Lily awoke early and quickly went downstairs into the Great Hall to meet up with Ruth and Ami and have breakfast together.
'So, what's the Head Boy and Girl common room and dorms like Lil?'
'Yeah, how is it?'
Lily put down her fork, swallowed, took a big breath and said, 'Oh it's wonderful! The common room has red furniture with gold lining, you know Gryffindor House colours. There are these two really soft sofas by the fire, a really nice couch and a huge desk, which I suppose Dumbledore put there so we can chat over our head duties, even though I'd rather sit by the fire in the winter on one of those really soft sofas. Oh! My room! It's magnificent! There's a HUGE four poster bed with all these really nice and warm quilts and such with faded pink curtains around it. I have my own really big desk with draws and things down the left side. And I've also got my very own mini walk-in-wardrobe!' Lily gasped for a breath at the end of this.
Ruth and Ami didn't take in a word of what Lily said because she had blabbed everything out at a really high speed that no-one could have known what she said. It took Ruth and Ami a few moments to realise that Lily at stop talking and was smiling at them, awaiting a reply.
'Oh…er… Wow!'
'Yeah…that sounds…Awesome!
'Mm, oh yeah, totally!'
Lily beamed.
James awoke on the first day of school but he kept his eyes shut firmly. 'It was all a dream,' he told himself, but when he finally opened his eyes, it was not. He was sleeping in a bed with pale gold hangings around it. James got up went into the bathroom (a/n and did what ever you do in the bathroom in the mornings. I'm not going into details) and went downstairs with his fellow Marauders to breakfast.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
'Hey Prongs!'
'Hey guys.' James plonked himself down on a seat beside Sirius and started eating his toast, bacon and eggs, and porridge.
James stared at Lily chatting with her friends the whole time he was eating, and didn't hear Sirius talking to him. Ever since he found out that he was going to spend more time with Lily, he loved her even more and became even more obsessed with her.
'What I would give to just have her talk to me nicely and politely.' James thought, 'what I would give just to Ruth or Ami for a day and attend classes with her, eat with her, talk to her –''
'Prongs, Prongs…'
'Yeah?' He snapped out of his thoughts and reluctantly tore his eyes away from Lily.
'Did you even hear a word a said?'
'Uh…'
'Obviously you didn't.' Sirius said. He looked in the direction James was looking. 'Ahh… La Belle Lily…' (A/n that means The Beautiful Lily if you don't know, just a bit of French even though I SUCK at it)
'Yeah…La belle Lily…'
'C'mon, Prongs, like she's gonna go out with you. She's said it for years, mate, years.'
McGonagall was walking down the Gryffindor table handing out timetables.
'Here you go Miss Evans and Miss Wu,' she said as she handed out Lily, Ruth and Ami's timetables. McGonagall moved down the table.
'Hmmm… Transfiguration first…Well, are we all up and running smoothly girls?'
Ami and Ruth gulped down a few more gulps of juice. 'Yep!'
'Ok, about turn! Forward march! Left right left, left, left, left right left…' and the girls left the Great Hall giggling, marching and attracting stares.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
James had just finished eating his toast, bacon and eggs, and porridge when McGonagall came down to them with timetables. When she reached the Marauders she said, 'Now, boys, I know that it would be no use telling you and no use listening to me but please try and behave yourselves this year, as I have said for the past five years. Here are your timetables and please do not be late for your first class.' McGonagall handed their timetables and kept moving down the table.
The Marauders who had not yet finished eating, started to pick up their forks when the heard –
'Ok, about turn! Forward march! Left right left, left, left, left right left…'
They turned around and saw Lily directing her friends as if they were in an army, with the exception that they were giggling.
'I love her voice…her sweet voice… her-'' James sighed.
'Err… Prongs? Are you talking to yourself or are you talking to us?'
'Hmm?' He said turning around to face his friends.
'He's talking to himself said Remus smirking. Well, we've got transfiguration now, so…we gotta leave…'
'Right behind you!'
They froze. 'What did you say?' asked Peter.
'Umm… I said that I was right behind Moony,' replied James, confused.
'Since when have you decided that you loved school work?' Asked Sirius.
'I have never loved school work but I am going to try and like it.'
'Because…'
'Lily.'
'Obsession.'
'Not!'
'Yes.'
'Not.'
'Ok, ok, let's just agree that we all know that James think that he's the perfect match for Evans.'
'Lily.'
'Yes, Lily. Anyway, we have transfiguration right now, so if you don't mind hurrying up…'
'Yeah, yeah, we get the point Moony. We're coming,' said Sirius, 'to accompany on Prongs first journey today to get Lily to open her heart out,' he added softly so that only Remus could here him.
He smiled.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Transfiguration went on as normal with the Marauders in the class.
'Mr Potter! Mr Black! Please transfigure your body back into the original state, stop showing it off around the class and continue with transfiguring yourself into a black dog!'
James and Sirius had taken their shirts off and had a huge chest, and a 6 pack, their skin all shiny. ( a/n I'm sorry! I suck at these sort of things 100! So in the next few paragraphs, my descriptions are really bad, so your gonna have to form your own picture in your heads. Good lick!)
Most girls were giggling and flirting with them but James was desperately trying very hard to catch a certain red-head's eye by flexing his 'muscles'…
'Ugh! He is so totally annoying!' Lily thought to herself, ignoring the muscular body a few metres away.
'C'mon Lily! Please! Just look this way and I'll know that you like me a bit!' James thought.
'He's really getting on my nerves now! This is my fifth go at this and I still can't get the hang of it! I'll just tell him to shut the hell up and get on with transfiguring himself,' Lily thought.
'Potter,' Lily tried to nice and as if she wasn't annoyed, 'We're working here and I find it really annoying when you make nearly all the girls laugh and giggle because they distract me, especially if they're my friends.' Lily turned away and continued to master transfiguring herself.
' OH, MY GAD (a/n it's meant to say oh my god but if you say it aloud you get like a think American accent). ! She looked at me! Oh yeah! Go me! Woo Hoo! I'd better actually try and transfigure myself instead of playing around. Lucky Padfoot.'
'Padfoot, I think we should quit playing around and I really want to know how to do it. You already know but please don't distract me.'
'What's got into him?' Sirius muttered into an ear of a black dog sitting beside him.
'Lily,' said Remus as he transformed back into his normal self.
'Finally! Some peace! I hate it when James goes off showing his hot body.' Lily picked her wand up again and –'OH MY GOD! Did I just call him James? OH MY GOD! I JUST CALLED HIM HOT! I CAN'T BELIVE IT! Ok Lily, calm down, breathe in, breathe out, breath in, breathe out.' Lily continued transfiguring herself into a black dog and managed to accomplish the task, ten minutes before the bell.
