Dreams of Someday

Chapter one: back to school

Kisses reined down on her, on her lips, her neck, her collarbone. She moaned deeply, feeling under his shirt, touching his toned chest. She felt his hands tugging on the bottom of her shirt, willing her to let him take her to the next level. She allowed it, helping him pull the shirt up. Nothing could stop them now. The world was gone, it was just them. They could be the only ones left in existence, and they wouldn't care. Nothing mattered.

'Oh, James.' She moaned.

Lily sat upright in bed, breathing heavily. Her green eyes darted around the room, then she realised where he was. She was still at home. She looked over at the alarm clock. 3 am? She sighed angrily. She would never be able to get back to sleep now!

Lily pulled back her auburn hair from her face with her hand, recalling what she had dreamed about.

No. She didn't want to remember what she had dreamed about.

She didn't understand why she was having a dream about her worst enemy! And what was worse, they were…she didn't want to think about what was happening in the dream.

She didn't understand! If there was anyone in the school she hated the most, it was James Potter. And boy, did everyone know it, including him. This fact, unfortunately, didn't stop him using every moment that they happened to be together, to ask her out. The fact that she never accepted, didn't seem to dishearten him either. It had been going on since the 5th year, and was driving her insane. She realised she didn't hate James; she loathed him.

But why then was she having a dream about him? She didn't know, and frankly, she was too tired to be bothered to figure it out.

Lily decided it would be better to just go to sleep, rather than pondering why she had a dream about James Potter, the cockiest boy in school.

Besides, she needed rest. She would be going back to Hogwarts today, for her last year.

With this thought in mind, she was able to drift off to sleep, with no more dreams of a certain someone she didn't want in her mind.

Lily woke up to her alarm clock beeping loudly in her ear. She sighed, then got out of bed. 6 o clock. That gave plenty of time to get ready. She had completely forgotten about the dream, which left her free to get ready without thoughts of it.

Lily had a shower, magically drying her hair, then put on a pair of jeans and a light blue top. She put her shoulder length auburn locks up in a pony tail, then put some light makeup on.

After doing this, Lily packed a few last minute things into her large Hogwarts trunk, then went down to breakfast.

Her mum and Dad smiled as she came in.

'Morning, sweetie.' Her mum said, as she sat down at the table.

'Morning.' Lily said, filling a bowl with cereal.

'All ready for your first day back, Head Girl?' Her dad asked, grinning proudly. Her parents had been ecstatic when they had received the acceptance letter from Hogwarts. Their very own witch. The only person who hadn't been proud, was her sister, Petunia. But she decided it was best to ignore her long ago.

'Sure am!' Lily said.

They got to the train station at 10:30. Her parents came to see her off, as Petunia had got out of it by going out with her boyfriend, Vernon. Lily was glad.

'Alright, sweetie. This is where we leave!' Her mum said as they came to the wall between platforms nine and ten. Lily turned around to her parents and smiled.

'Have a good year, dear.' Her dad said.

'Alright! I promise to write!' She said, giving her mum and dad a hug.

'So we should be expecting an owl then?' Her dad asked. One year Lily had wrote and her parents had had no idea what an owl was doing pecking on their window, in broad daylight. Eventually they found the letter tied to it's claw, but it took a lot of pecks from the owl before they caught on.

Lily laughed and nodded, turning her trolley to the wall.

'See you at Christmas!' She cried as she ran towards the wall. The next thing she knew, she was at the platform with the scarlet red train, and many people with trunks and animals of all sorts. She sighed happily. This was where she belonged.

Lily put her trunk onto the train, then looked around.

'LILY!' She heard. Turning around to the sound of the voice, she found the culprit. Ellen.

Ellen was her best friend, and renown for having a temper almost as bad as Lily's. She had brown hair which was always straight, as much as she hated that fact. Her hazel eyes were almost always glinting with mischief, and she had a very bubbly personality. Lily loved her, because she was one of the only people who yelled back at her.

'Hey, Ellen!' She cried as Ellen pulled her into a rib breaking hug.

'Hi, Head Girl!' Ellen said happily, as she let go of Lily, who grabbed her ribs and breathed in air.

'Where's everyone else?' Lily managed to ask.

'Oh, there coming.' Ellen said, grinning.

'Hey, Lily!'

Lily turned around to see Anna and Alice coming up. Alice squealed when she saw her, but Anna just smiled.

Alice was not as bubbly as Ellen by any means, but was still very fun to be around. She knew how to have a hell of a good time. She had blonde hair and blue eyes, and would be the shortest of her friends. Still, what she didn't have in height, she made up for in personality.

Anna on the other hand, was the least like Ellen or Alice. She was very quiet, and very shy. Though hanging around with Lily, Ellen and Alice had defiantly brought her out of her shell. She had dirty blonde hair, and brown intelligent eyes.

'Hey guys!' Lily said, giving them each a hug.

'How's our head girl this morning?' Alice asked.

'Good!' Lily stated. A whistle was blown. 'But I'm thinking we should get on the train, and finish our conversation there.'

The others agreed, and they walked off together.

'So, all ready to start our last year at Hogwarts?' Anna asked.

'I am! It's gonna be so-'

'EEEEEEEE!' came a high pitched voice. They all turned to see none other than Sirius Black, running towards them like a playful puppy, with his black hair flapping wildly in the wind.

'-much fun.' Lily finished, saying the last part with no enthusiasm.

Black came to them and gave them all tight hugs. Lily flinched at the contact, but Sirius didn't seem to notice.

'oh my gosh I have missed you all like soooo much!' Sirius said, attempting to imitate what sounded like an excited school girl.

'Hello, Black.' Anna said, matching Lily's unenthusiastic tone.

'OH JAMSEY! LOOK WHO I FOUND!' Sirius cried behind him.

A tall boy with messy black Hair and hazel eyes walked over to them, grinning.

'Hi everyone,' James Potter said, he looked at Lily. 'Alright there, Evans? You look like you've seen a cockroach.'

'You don't say?' She muttered.

People often asked Lily why she hated James. But she had an answer. He was a cocky, arrogant know-it-all, who only ever thought about himself, who could get good grades without trying, and had slept with almost every girl in the school. It was a good enough reason for Lily to stay clear of him. Besides, she wanted a boyfriend who didn't have a head full of enough air for a country to breathe.

'Come on guys, lets go get a compartment, so we can have one to our selves.' Lily said, emphasising the last bit so that the Marauders wouldn't follow them. Her three friends came with her and they managed to find an empty compartment, where they locked the door so that the Marauders wouldn't get any ideas.

They sat down and made themselves comfortable. Not soon after, the train started to move away from the platform. Luckily, the Marauders had come.

'So Lily, our Head Girl! I knew you would get it, but its so exciting!' Ellen exclaimed.

'Thanks, Ellen.' Lily said, smiling. She had been so happy when she had got the letter and the badge, and couldn't wait to get back to school.

'Do you know who the Head Boy is?' Alice asked.

'I don't, but I reckon it would have to be Remus.'

'Yeah defiantly, I mean he's smart, and he's not a trouble maker, well, not as much as Potter and Black I mean.' Anna said.

'I don't even understand why he's a marauder, it really doesn't suit him.' Alice said.

'Well, at least there's one of them with sense,' Lily said, laughing. 'Otherwise I don't know how they would still be in Hogwarts!'

The others laughed at this.

'Well if he wasn't keeping them out of too much trouble, maybe he would be doing us a favour! Imagine school without Potter and Black!' Ellen cried. The others laughed again, glad to be back together.

'Anyway, I better get into my robes, and then I have to go to the prefect meeting and meet the Head Boy.' Lily said.

'Alright, have fun!' Anna said as Lily left.

'Yeah and tell me if he's single, if he's hot that is!' Ellen cried after her.

Lily shook her head. Friends.

Lily had changed into her robes and attached her badge onto them quickly, and then made haste to the Head compartment. She stopped for a moment and took a deep breath, then opened the door.

Who she saw made her freeze with shock.

'All right there, Evans?' James Potter said, cocky grin on his face.

'POTTER!' Lily yelled, flabbergasted. 'WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!'

He grabbed his robe and showed her his badge.

'This is the heads compartment, isn't it?' He said as if he knew that it was, but he just wanted to prove his point.

'Your-your Head Boy? Yo-You?' Lily stammered.

Potter's grin widened.

'Yes me. James Potter, Head Boy of Hogwarts. And you must be Head Girl.'

'How did you get Head Boy?' Lily said.

'Cause they love me!' James said, as if it was the most normal thing to say.

'Erh! You are such a prick!' Lily cried.

'Why thankyou! And you are very beautiful.' He said, smirking.

'Shut up, Potter.' Lily said angrily, but blushing slightly, as much as she tried to hide it.

'Is that what I think it is?' James asked, grinning again. 'Is Lily Evans, blushing?'

Luckily at that point the prefects came in and Lily was saved from the conversation with him.

The meeting took half an hour, and they handed out passwords and rosters, and then dismissed everyone. Lily left as soon as she could, to be saved from talking to James Potter again.

How had he got head boy? He was a trouble maker! She worked hard, never got in trouble, and got good marks. The only one James had out of that was good marks, and how did that count when he never bothered working hard to get them? She sighed angrily. Oh well, Dumbledore must have had a reason. She just wished that he had chosen someone else.

Lily, Ellen, Anna and Alice got off the train quickly. Lily had told them about the Head Boy problem and they were all as outraged as her. They all shared a dislike of the Marauders, but no one hated James Potter as much as her.

They got into a carriage pulled by nothing, and found it empty, which was good. They settled down and waited for the carriages to move off towards the castle.

But to all their disappointment -especially lily's- they had company. Sirius Black poked his head in the door.

'Hello all!' He said gleefully. 'Oi! Prongsie! Mooney! Wormtail! Over here!'

Lily groaned. Just what they needed.

Sirius hopped into the carriage and sat down next to Ellen, much to her annoyance. Next came Remus, who offered a smile to then before between Anna and Alice. Peter Pettigrew came next. Although Lily didn't like discriminating, she did not like Peter, mainly because of how rat like he looked, but also because he could be vile. She gave him a slight glare when he was about to sit next to her, so he sat next to Sirius. Then Potter, who grinned at her. He looked around the cabin.

'Well, looks like there's only one spot left.' He said, sounding pleased as he sat down next to Lily. Lily sighed. She should have let Peter sit there.

The carriages started moving and Lily was glad. They wouldn't be in here for long.

Sirius jumped into Ellen's lap.

'Hey Ellen,' He said, slight grin on his face. 'Will you go out with me?'

Ellen looked at him with disgust and scoffed.

'In you Dreams, Black.'

'Yes, I know. I dream about you all the time.' He said, grin widening.

'Eww grose! Get off me!' Ellen cried.

'Aww come on Lacey, I know you can't resist my..sexy charm.' Sirius flicked his hair and looked at her with sultry gaze.

Ellen looked disgusted for a moment, but then she smirked slightly and gazed back at him.

'You know I think your right.' She said, taking a piece of his hair and twirling it.

'I am!' Sirius said, shocked.

'Yeah,' Ellen said in a seductive voice. 'I would just love to go out with you.'

'Really?' Sirius said, still shocked that it had worked.

'Come closer.' Ellen said. Sirius moved forward, a few inches from her face. Ellen closed her eyes, and Sirius look as if he thought Christmas had come. Then Ellen Placed her hands on his chest, and Sirius started to move closer, when Ellen suddenly pushed, and he lost his balance and fell off her lap, onto the floor with a large 'thunk'.

Everyone burst into laughter except Sirius. Ellen sat there with a satisfied smirk on her face.

'Padfoot, when will you learn?' Remus asked.

Sirius groaned and sat up on the floor, rubbing his bottom.

'That hurt!' He whined, looking at Ellen.

'Well, that's what you get for thinking every girl is easy.' She said.

Sirius muttered to himself as he got off the ground and sat back next to Ellen, and did not attempt anything for the rest of the trip.

The great hall filled quickly, full of hungry students. Unfortunately the Marauders decided to sit next to Lily and her friends, so Lily knew that dinner would be anything but nice and quiet.

Once the first years had been sorted and Dumbledore had made his speech, the food appeared.

'Finally!' Sirius cried as he started to fill his plate until it looked like a mini mount Everest. Then he started to shovel it into his mouth as fast as he could, as if it would disappear if he didn't eat it quickly enough.

'Slow down, Padfoot!' James said, with his mouth full. He really couldn't talk because he too was shovelling the food into his mouth, but not at the speed of Sirius.

The girls were disgusted and tried to not pay attention to the two, which was hard with all the noises they were making and food they were spraying as they talked loudly.

It was then they started talking about what they were going to do this year.

'We need some good pranks to pull.' James said, the other 3 agreeing.

'You will do no such thing, Potter,' Lily said. James turned around. 'You're Head Boy and you need to set a good example.'

James was silent for a moment, but then nodded.

'Your right, Evans. I shouldn't be messing around.'

Lily nodded, satisfied, and didn't see James wink to his friends.

When dinner was over, Lily and James went up to talk to Dumbledore. His hair had started to go white some time ago, and was now between a very faded red colour and snow white.

'Ahh, Ms. Evans and Mr. Potter, congratulations on making Head this year.'

'Thankyou, sir.' They both replied.

'Now I assume you know about the shared head dorm?' Dumbledore asked.

'What!' Lily cried. James gave a knowing nod.

'There are separate head dorms for you, I assumed you knew, Miss Evans.'

Lily was too shocked to speak. This meant-

'So you will be spending the year together, of course, you have separate bedrooms, but you will share a common room and a bathroom.' Dumbledore's eyes were twinkling as he said this. So were James'.

'I assume you know where it is, young Mr. Potter?' Dumbledore asked.

'Yes, sir.'

'Excellent. Well the password is "Chocolate Beans", so if you could show miss Evans the way.'

'Certainly, sir. Come on, Evans.' James said walking off. Lily ran to catch up with him, even though she didn't really want to, she knew otherwise she would get lost.

As they walked she looked at him. In a way, he was kinda hot. Defiantly in the looks department, except for that cocky grin, that defiantly took away valuable hot points. But his hair, and those eyes. She shook herself.

What the hell am I doing? She asked herself.

I believe you were perving on James.

No I wasn't! he's an arrogant, cocky, idiot!

A very hot arrogant cocky idiot.

Shut up! This conversation is over! Anyway, why am I having a conversation with my mind?

'Evans? Are you alright?' Came the voice of James Potter. They had stopped walking. 'You seemed a bit out of it.'

'Just thinking.' She said. James grinned.

'About anyone in particular?' He asked. She shot a glare at him.

'No! Why would I be thinking about someone as cocky and arrogant as you!'

'So you admit it?'

'Admit what?'

'That you were thinking about me?' He replied in a know-it-all way.

'No! I never- anyway. Why have we stopped?' She said changing the subject. James grinned at her for a few more moments, and then turned to a portrait of a white Horse in the middle of a forest.

'Chocolate Beans.' He said. The portrait swung open and revealed the room inside. Lily gasped in wonder as she stepped through.

The walls were a dark scarlet colour, with gold trimmings. The drapery was much the same, and there were scarlet armchairs and a couch in front of a fire place, just like the Gryffindor common room. The floor was dark red wood, with rugs here and there.

Lily walked into the room marked with her name in gold letters. It was huge with a double bed with a deep red spread and many fluffed pillows, and drapes coming down from the four posters. There was a desk and a bookshelf, as well as a window with a view of the lake and the courtyards.

James had flopped down on one of the couches, sighing contentedly. He put his feet up on the couch, then cradled the back of his head with his arms. Lily shook her head then decided to start unpacking. She closed the door so that she could have some privacy, then started to unpack her large trunk, making the room feel more and more like home.

She sighed contently. For now, she was in paradise.
