-^ How Love Came To Be ^-

A/N: This is not only a Lily and James fanfic. It's about all the couples. Lily and James are already a couple in this fanfic. It's not a love/hate. Sorry to all those Lily and James love/hate fans! Well, that's about it. Start reading!

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Dear Mums,

I'm doing good in Hogwarts. I miss you and dad a lot. How is Petunia? I just wanted to you know I'm ok and I can't wait till Christmas holidays.

Love You Lots,
Lily

Lily Evans sent the letter with her owl and went back to doing her Divination homework.

"Lily Evans! What are you doing in the dorm on a Saturday morning?" cried Jeanie Thompson, her best friend. She had just came up to their dorm room to look for Lily to go out to Hogsmeade.

"Homework. I want to finish Divination before I go out." Lily said as she continued writing her predictions for the future.

"I will suffer from a cold on the 19th of this month and end up with a face full of pimples? Can you make your life sound any worse?" Jeanie asked.

"Well you know that Professor Wade likes things like that." Lily said.

"True, but come on, let's go to Hogsmeade with Sirius, James, and Remus." Jeanie persisted.

"Alright, after I'm done with this." Lily said.

"How long? I'm so bored. I want to get some dung bombs and put some in Peter's bed at night." Jeanie said with a evil grin.

"Jeanie, how many times do I have to tell you to stop picking on poor Peter?" Lily exclaimed.

Jeanie flopped down on Lily's bed and started to paint her nails with one of Lily's nail polishes, "He's such a wimp. I don't know how that kid got into Gryfinndor. He probably bribed the Sorting Hat."

"I don't think you can bribe the Sorting Hat." Lily said, "Can't you be a little nicer to him?"

"No." Jeanie replied.

"Ugh! You're like the only person that doesn't trust him. Even Sirius thinks he's alright." Lily said.

"I don't care. I still think he's a weird one." Jeanie said.

Lily finished the last of her homework and put away her roll of parchment, "I'm done. Do you want to go now?"

"YES!" Jeanie said and jumped up from the bed. She looked into the mirror next to the bed and started to fix her hair.

"Stop fixing your hair, Jeanie. It's perfect. Fix it one more time, it'll become messy." Lily exclaimed.

"Ok, Ok." Jeanie said.

The two went down the stairs and came to the common room where Sirius Black, James Potter, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew(A/N: nicknames- Wormfood and Pettigre) were sitting.

"Hey guys." Lily said sitting in a nearby chair.

"Hey." James said. He got up from his seat and went over to her. They started talking like they were in their own little world.

"Hey Sirius." Jeanie said in a flirty voice, "We were wondering if you guys would like to go to Hogsmeade."

"Yeah, I need to go to Zonko's." Sirius said.

"So do I!" Jeanie exclaimed, "Do you want to come with us, Remus?"

"Sure. I want to get some sweets for Clarissa." Remus said. Clarissa Huntington was a 6th year Gryfinndor. She shared the same dorm as Lily and Jeanie but they were not exactly the best of friends. Clarissa was pretty but she had a temper. She was an only child so she was spoiled rotten. She always had to get what she wanted.

"Clarissa?" Jeanie said in a disgusted voice, "That spoiled brat?"

"She's very sweet for your information, Jeanie." Remus said.

"Yeah ok, I live in the same dorm room as her. I know the real her. You have to find someone better. Before you know it, she'll dump you like that for some 7th year." Jeanie said with a snap of her fingers.

"You're wrong, Jeanie. She's much nicer than the other girls I've dated." Remus insisted.

"That's because you're always dating airheads." muttered Jeanie.

"Can I come to Hogsmeade with y-you guys?" Peter asked out of no where.

"Sure Worm-" Sirius started to say before being interrupted by Jeanie.

"Um…I don't think so, Peter. Is there really anything you want there? I didn't think so either." Jeanie said, "It's better you stay in the common room and study some more. I don't want you to fail another Potions exam."

Sirius got up and pulled Jeanie to a corner.

"That was pretty harsh, Jeanie." Sirius said.

"Well, he does need to brush up on Potions a little more. Don't you think?" Jeanie said in her sweetest voice possible.

"But it's obvious you don't want him to go." Sirius said.

"Now why wouldn't I want him to go? I just think it's better for him to study a bit more. I'm helping him." Jeanie said.

"I don't think that's really it but if you say so." Sirius said.

"Yes, now let's get the others and go." Jeanie said with a smile. She grabbed his arm and pulled him back to where everyone was sitting.

"Are you ready to go?" she asked everyone.

"Peter, are you going?" Lily asked.

Jeanie gave her the look of death.

"N-no." Peter said.

"Why not? It'll be fun." Lily insisted.

"I-I don't t-think Jeanie w-wants me to g-go." Peter stuttered.

"Of course Jeanie wants you to go. We all do." Lily said and gave Jeanie a look.

"O-ok then. I'll come with you guys." Peter got up and they all left the common room.

Jeanie walked a little slower for Lily to catch up with her.

"What was that all about, Lily?" Jeanie asked. She was really angry at that moment.

"Oh come on, Jeanie, how could you possibly not invite Peter?" Lily said.

"Um..hello Lily? I don't like him and you know it." Jeanie said.

"What has he ever done to you?" Lily asked.

"Nothing. Him being him just annoys me." Jeanie said.

"He's a good kid, Jeanie. Be nice to him. Please?" Lily said.

"I'll try." Jeanie said but she was still unsure if she could even try to be nice to Peter.

"Good. Now let's catch up with the others." Lily said. They walked a little faster and they finally caught up.

"What took you guys so long?" James asked.

"Oh nothing, we were just talking." Lily said.

"So what were you and James talking about before in the common room?" Jeanie asked with a grin.

"Nothing." Lily said a little too quickly. She started to blush a little.

"Are you sure it was nothing? You're the two Gryfinndor lovebirds." Jeanie asked.

"Mhmm." Lily mumbled looking the other way.

"I'm so sure." Jeanie said.

"What were you and Sirius talking about in that little corner?" Lily asked changing the subject.

"Peter stuff." Jeanie mumbled.

"See? Everyone is telling you to be nicer to Peter. Even Sirius." Lily said.

"I know. I just have this uneasy feeling about him." Jeanie said.

"I bet it's nothing." Lily said.

"Maybe." Jeanie said. She was unsure about that. It was this feeling she got when she first met Peter. At first, she told herself it was nothing but the more she hung out with him, the more she disliked him. She wouldn't say it was hate because that would be so unfair to Peter. He had done nothing to her. Maybe I'm just overreacting, she thought.

"Thinking about Sirius?" Lily asked.

"Not telling." Jeanie said, "I'll race you to Zonko's."

"Okay!" Lily said.

They took off laughing all the way.
