Disclaimer I don't own Harry Potter. My name is Keely. Not Jk.
A/N I'm not a fan of this chapter too much, but believe me next chapter should be much better, This chapter is shortish but the next one will be longer. I hope you like this one and it goes out to all of you reviewers and readers. I hope you'll stick with me. As always give thoughts and opinions if you want to.
The rest of the day was uneventful. Nothing interesting more happened. Of course, Lily messed up being James, by being in a foul mood. James was never in a foul mood and James had messed up being Lily tarnishing her perfect record. Of course, everybody just thought they was having an off day. Everyone has of days. Nobody picked up on the fact that it was both Lily and James having a off day.
James walked slowly back to the Gryffindor Common rooms. He could see Lily nowhere in sight after there little argument earlier. She was over reacting a little then again Lily was always over reacting a little bit, sometimes her anger got the better of her. Though James didn't mind, he had his flaws too. Nobody was around. It was an eerie silence that James wasn't used to, he was used to noise, lots of shouting, singing, bangs, just some sort of noise.
James entered the common room. It was quite empty. Only four people from a year below were playing a game of exploding snap in front of the fire. James headed up to the dormitories where he could get ready, he prayed that someone was in there to help him, James liked his style of make up but Lily didn't and he didn't want to anger her further.
To James relief he noticed Alice and Dorie was sitting on a bed talking about something.
"Hi," James greeted with a small smile "Help me for my date? I need it." James admitted
Dorie and Alice smiled. "Sure!" Alice answered happily.
Least he wasn't doing this completely alone. He had help and hopefully would look nice to Lily's standard, James always thought she looked great.
Lily was with the other marauders currently who were in the Kitchens. Obviously Dinner hadn't satisfied them and now they wanted something sweeter. Lily also craved this as well, being in a bad mood meant she didn't eat enough and who cares if she ate too much, It's only James body that would be getting fat not hers. If the guys weren't around, she'd be having her evil moment. You know? The moment when one cries 'Mwahwaha' until there lungs collapse or if it was a movie, the next scene had begun but for now, she'd be the sane one. Just for a moment. Plus, the Marauders would ask why she was doing her evil laughter and Lily didn't really want to explain why.
"What do you want Prongs?" Peter asked
"Chocolate. Crisps. Sweets. Biscuits," Lily replied "Everything that's unhealthy really" she shrugged
Sirius just nodded before the House Elves went to complete their order. The Marauders were always coming into the kitchen, to get more food but the House Elves didn't mind, they were alright guys. They didn't treat them like House Elves, almost like people.
Upon collecting there order, with a small wave, The Marauders left the kitchens with as much food as they could carry and considering there was four of them, it was quite a lot.
'My dates soon' Lily thought 'I wonder what he'll do' She pondered. She wondered about whether or not she should follow James out on the date but she didn't have much longer to think about it because Lily was walking up stairs. Guess what happens when walking up stairs and not really paying attention?
Lily fell and ended up in a heap with food almost being buried in it. Laughter erupted and filled the air. This laughter belonged to three quarters of the Marauders. Lily wasn't at all happy. Especially since James wand was sticking in the back of her head. How it had fallen out of her pocket, she'd never know.
James looked at himself in the mirror. The girls had done a better job on him that he could. Maybe girl things just wasn't his thing, perhaps he just needed to try morethere was probably going to be a few more days yet. James still didn't understand why Lily did the things she did but so far, being in her shoes was pretty cool.
Lily's hair was straight down, It was always James's favourite hair style for her. She wore a dress, something James didn't even knew Lily owned. She was always so proper. She never made any alterations to her uniform or like that, her uniform was always perfect.
"Lily, You'd better be going," Dorie smiled. It was true, he'd have to leave soon for his date if he wanted to get there on time, James would rather not go at all but he quite liked life and didn't want to die quite soon as Lily would murder him, bring him back somehow, just to murder him again.
"Thanks for your help" James smiled before giving a little wave and leaving the room. He walked down the stairs to find his friends walking in carrying bundles of sweets, cakes and all sorts.
"I cant believe that," Peter laughed
"Twice! In one day!" Sirius exclaimed
"Classic!" Remus chuckled
James raised his eyebrow and looked for himself. Then he noticed Lily coming up, a small blush could be seen and James saw that his hair looked more windswept that usual. He made a mental note to ask Lily what they was going on later.
"Okay enough guys," Lily mumbled
Sirius spotted Lily and went over to James and nudged him.
"Look, Prongs, It's Lily-kins."
"Evans!" Lily called, It was somewhat weird that she was calling her own name. She knew she had to say something, otherwise, it just wouldnt be James. Whenever he saw her, he had to say something, before he used to ask her out all the time, but so far he hadnt asked many times but now used hello or something along the lines of that.
"Potter," James replied with a small glare. He was somewhat still upset with her from earlier, and his upset mood made it so much easier. "What do you want?" James glared
Lily bit her tongue obviously James hadn't got over whatever was bothering him earlier. "Just wanted to say Hello." Was the best thing Lily could have came up with that moment.
"Well Hello." James snapped before starting to walk out of the common room.
"Where you going?" Sirius asked the girl
"Date," James replied smugly. He thought he was playing the part of Lily quite well so far. He then walked out of the common room, leaving his friends behind.
"Date?" Sirius raised an eyebrow looking at Lily. Lily shrugged. "Doesn't it bother you?" Sirius asked
"Course it does," Lily mumbled
"Then, We know what we have to do! Stalk them!" Sirius revealed. He was acting like it was some sort of master plan.
"I don't know" Lily began
"Nonsense. Come on!" Sirius grabbed one arm of Lily and Remus grabbed the other, while Peter was walking on the side of Remus.
'Well, Maybe It will be okay, I'll get to see what he does on my date' Lily thought sighing.
I'm drunk i suppose
Thanks for reading.
