Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter because I am not the lovely JKR.
I have been working on this all week. School has just gotten in the way. Now here it is, please enjoy!
I may have used some characters from the show Big Time Rush. Okay, I did, but it's awesome and I can't help but compare the Marauder's to BTR. I'm such a Rusher! ~May
Chapter 18
"I'm thinking we should Transfigure Peter a bit before my cousin gets here." Lily announced to the crowded room, sizing Peter up with her eyes. Marlene, Alice, Peter's little Sister Katie, and Alice's Cousin Jo, were all there waiting. They'd showed up while Lily was in the shower and the boys had been left to entertain them, it was quite awkward. Peter was quite smitten with Jo though.
"What do you suggest we do?" James asked curiously wondering if he should start practicing at being her boyfriend before her cousin arrived. Lily bit her lip in reply.
"Stand up Peter." Lily told him and the boy obeyed. She pointed her wand at him and began to change his appearance.
Peter's podgy at the middle slowly shrunk away; he grew a few inches, stretching into his height that matched his friends more easily. His hair became shaggy and Peter's arms gained strong course muscle. He was now quite handsome and fit with the Marauder's better.
"Wow, thanks Lily!" Peter exclaimed.
"You want to make sure I did that right, I'm not the greatest at Transfiguration." Lily looked at James with pleading eyes and he nodded in agreement examining deformations in Peter with his wand.
"He's perfect." James grinned slightly and Lily rolled her eyes at him.
"He's so handsome!" Jo said excitedly standing up and walking around him in examination. Peter turned a light shade of pink.
"When's your sister getting here?" Remus questioned and Lily glanced at her watch.
"Seven, about five minutes now." Lily told him plopping down on the couch narrowly missing James' lap.
The group rested their eyes, occasionally making a comment on the conversation's that cropped up. At seven o'clock the doorbell rang and James jumped up to answer it. Lily followed him out figuring she might have to be there, especially since it was her cousin.
"Hi, I'm Evelynn Star, I'm Lily Evans' cousin." The blond haired, popular, snobby girl said and Lily forced back an eye roll and snide remark.
"Evelynn, it's good to see you again!" Lily exclaimed excitedly with a forced smile. She hugged her cousin and mouthed 'Eugh' over her should at James who sniggered lightly. "This is my boyfriend James Potter."
"It's good to meet the man that Lily's spoken so much about." Evelynn told him holding out her hand; James took it and shook it lightly.
"Everyone is in the living room." Lily told her cousin and they headed towards the door, James slinging his arm around Lily's shoulders.
"This is the cast I have to work with?" Evelynn asked shocked looking around the space. "They all have so much potential! This is going to be so much fun! Handsome too."
Evelynn winked at Sirius and Marlene glared at the intruder.
"My writer's are playing off of your relationship. They're creating a Television episode of sorts that you can premiere at your Private school." Evelynn turned back to James and Lily holding up her hands in a camera shape. The group looked at the two in shock and Lily mouthed 'Later' to them behind James' back. She was currently relishing in having an excuse to be close to James and breathe in his scent. "Today we're going to work on making some music videos to your songs that Lily says are amazing. We'll be doing some of Lily's songs too."
"What do we need to bring?" Lily asked peering around James should at her cousin and James grinned at her.
"We have everything on set, so you just need to bring yourselves." Evelynn paused glancing around the room again."There's a limo waiting outside for you."
"Awesome." Lily was the only one who looked particularly excited, Evelynn looked a bit curious but led the way out of the living room and Lily began to quickly explain. "My cousin has the impression that James and I are boyfriend and girlfriend, do not reveal anything otherwise. Just go with it okay? Let's go."
Lily left the room and the group of teens quickly followed her out of the Potter's home and down to the white limo waiting for them. They all clambered inside and the magical born people were obviously impressed, Lily rolled her eyes. James threw his arm around her shoulder's tempted to kiss her on the head but decided not to.
"Lily, the song that you mentioned, we're going to record a video to that one first, then head to France. It's really warm there for this time of year, plus they have good rock diving cliffs. I think it would be a good setting for one of the boys' videos. Do you know which song you'd like to record first?" Evelynn asked chatting her cousin up and Lily leaned forward, the group watched her closely, trying to figure out how to not make anything sound magic related.
"I was thinking of my song, 'Call Me Maybe', I had a couple of ideas for the video." Lily told her cousin who nodded and removed a notebook from the briefcase sitting on the seat next to her.
"I see, let me write them down." Evelynn produced a pen and some paper and began to scribble a few notes before looking at Lily expectantly.
"I was thinking of having James here be the boy star in the video and his band could be my band, because they would be willing to." She shot a glare at Sirius who pretended to cower. "At the beginning, James would be mowing the lawn, then take his shirt off because he was too hot and I'd have a normal girl reaction then try and get his attention through the whole video but not be able to gain it very well."
"I think this is just a ploy for her to get you take your shirt of Pr-James." Sirius teased trying to glide over their school nicknames for each other.
"I like that, I'll tell the director to work with it." Evelynn looked up then tapped on the glass partition separating them from the driver. "Paul, how much longer?"
"Not long madam." Paul the driver replied.
"Good." The glass slid closed again and the occupants of the limo fell silent for the remainder of the ride. Lily cuddling into James' shoulder, glad for an excuse.
Ah, now just to create a real relationship between James and Lily. CHRISTMAS! That's when this shall all go down and we shall find out who wins the galleons! I'm thinking of having Lily's mom show up soon.
Your average Gryffindor Girl: You're really funny, I definitely enjoyed the French. =D I haven't seen AVPM but I'm thinking about watching it. In my spare time that is.
