Disclaimer: Sadly I don't own the marauders or Lily.
Okay I would just like to say that this is along the same lines of Grease. I just love that movie anyway continuing on with this story.
James Potter arrived at his family's summer cabin by the lake after completing his sixth year of school, he was glad to be away from the love sick girls at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. James was a baggy dark denim jeans, white tee-shirt and black leather jacket wearing babe magnet, for lack of a better term.
He was popular but not the preppy popular he was popular with the ladies who seemed to follow him and his friends around where ever they went kind of popular. Most of the girls found him dangerous and alluring what with wearing a leather jacket, picking fights and of course the pranks James and his friends pulled.
James had been a troublemaking bad ass ever since his first year at Hogwarts, guys wanted to be him (secretly of course, it was unrespectable to be bad in that era) and girls wanted to date him (who wouldn't want to date a bad ass). This of course made the guys jealous causing them to hate James and his leather wearing friends.
It was a great shock to the jocks however when James and some of his friends tried out for the quidditch team and even more of a shock when James was made quidditch captain (it wasn't right he wasn't a jock, they were). This seemed to make the girls want James even more but who wouldn't want a bad ass that was also athletic.
Unfortunately for the girls James had been taken most of sixth year by Mackenzie Garman. She and her groups of friends were known by the boys of Hogwarts as the marauders property. No boy asked any of them out but they loved to look because of the tight usually trampish outfits the girls dressed in.
James and Mackenzie had however broken up during the Easter Holidays causing most girls to flirt incessantly with him after the break up. James hated when they flirted with him to James they looked at him as if he were a piece of meat which to most he probably was. Lucky for James it was finally summer a break away from school.
James had decided to go up to the lake for the summer, his family had a summer cabin there and it was the one place to get away from the giggling girls of Hogwarts. He lounged around the cabin most of the morning and decided to walk around the lake after lunch.
**
Lily Evans arrived at a cabin by a lake her family was vacationing in it during the summer. Lily was different from her family she was a witch while the rest of her family were muggles or nonmagic people by witches and wizards. Lily went to a wizarding school in Ireland. (a/n: Hogwarts isn't in Ireland, at least I don't think it is, well in this fic it isn't)
Lily was popular, the preppy sort of popular, as in good grades, sensibly dressed, and above all a goody to shoes (exactly the opposite of the marauders and their girls). Lily wore the conservative outfits that didn't show an ounce of flashy flesh and her dating preference, the jocks.
Lily ate lunch with her family (all good girls do) then decided to go for a walk around the lake to take in the beautiful scenery. She was halfway around the lake when she saw a leather jacket wearing boy with messy black hair.
"Oh great a juvenile delinquent" she muttered to herself as she continued to walk his way. He had to be look at the state of him. His clothes scream 'I am going to be a criminal in my future' look. She assumed he was probably a school drop out mechanic or something along that line.
"Hello" the delinquent said to her.
'The nerve of him to speak to me' Lily thought to herself. 'Just ignore him and he will go away' she continued to walk past him as if he wasn't even there. It worked he just looked at her dumbstruck as she continued to walk around the lake.

James couldn't believe it that had to be the first time a girl had totally blown him off most girls found him appealing and would drool if he even looked at them. He had been thinking of the girl all night and by dawn found that she was actually quite appealing and pretty.
He assumed he was attracted to her because she had blown him off it definitely wasn't because of the way she dressed. If his friends knew that he was attracted to someone who dressed conservatively and reeked of a holier than thou persona, he shuddered at the thought.
He went out in search of her and found her sitting on a rock overlooking the lake. She looked stunning as the sun brightened her locks of wavy red hair or more so because she was in a swim suite that showed her curves wonderfully "hey" he said walking up behind her.
He had startled her she nearly fell off of the rock. He was startled by the look of disgust she gave him like he was beneath her or something. He laughed at the idea his family probably had more money than all of her relatives combined and yet she looked at him as if he were a low life.
"I wanted to know what it is about me that disgust you" James said, he never beat around the bush he always went straight to the point.
"Excuse me" she said in an Irish accent. James found the accent rather attractive and noticed that she was offended by what he said but it was true.
"I said I want to know why it is that you look at me like I am beneath you" James replied "is it my clothes, the way I look or are you just a stuck up snob" he didn't mean to say the last part but even he can loose his temper when someone was looking at him the way she was.
"What?" she asked confusedly. She was definitely surprised at his words but once she thought about it she was rather stuck up to judge someone without getting to know them.
James smiled on the inside but remained unreadable as realization dawned on her face and her shining emerald eyes widened in shock "I think you heard me the first time but if you really want me to repeat myself-
"That is quite all right, I heard you the first time" the girl replied interrupting him "I am Lily Evans."
James shook her extended hand "I am James Potter" he said.
**
The two months at the lake were some of the best days of both Lily and James lives. James for once had actually gotten to know a girl other than his friends and had been a perfect gentleman all summer holding her hand, pulling the door open for her and not once did he try to kiss her.
He wanted to but knew that she was the type that liked to take things slow. He had done magic but instead of being expelled his father had convinced the ministry to suspend him for two weeks at the beginning of the school year.
Lily was surprised at how attracted she was to this boy he was the complete opposite of what she usually dated. He was so sweet never once did he make a pass at her although sometimes she wished he would have. Lily also found out that she would be going to a new wizarding school in England.
It was the last night at the lake for the both of them. Lily would be heading to her new home and James would be returning to his. They sat on the rock where they first officially met and watched the sunset.
He ever so gently brought his lips down to hers and kissed her.
It was a tender gentle kiss but he had gotten more out of that little kiss than any French kiss he had ever had. To him it was worth the wait all summer the night had been perfect his only regret was not being able to see her again.
Lily's insides melted with that one little kiss, apart from the way he dressed he was absolutely perfect but then again after spending the summer with him she was beginning to fall for the leather look it suited him well. Her only regret was not being able to see him again.
Well that is all I have time for right now. I hope you enjoyed it so far. The next chapter we get to meet the rest of the marauders and the girls. Toodles for now,
