Lily woke up, her alarm buzzing 7am. She pulled back her duvet, tucking it back under the pillow. She opened the curtains around her bed, revealing the bright light of the morning sun in the quiet dormitory.

She grabbed her folded pile of clothes from her dresser and tiptoed to the bathroom. After showering, she dressed in her usual uniform. A black mini skirt, green tights, a pair of brown platform loafers, a white shirt and her gryffindor tie, and a gryffindor jumper. She brushed her hair, then grabbed her green hairband.

Lily brushed her teeth and did her makeup, before leaving the bathroom and packing her bag for her lessons she had until lunch, when she would head back to her dorm. She grabbed her alarm clock, setting it for half 8 to make sure the others wouldn't be late for class. After that, she headed out the door, a Woolf book in hand.

She made her way to the great hall, sitting at the gryffindor table, only a few students around. Making herself a cup of tea and strawberry jam toast, she opened up her book.

As she turned the page, someone dropped into the seat in front of her.

She looked up to see a sweat-covered James Potter. Dressed in small, red shorts and a vest, he grabbed a banana before reaching over and taking a sip of Lily's tea.

"My tea", she frowned, grabbing it back.

"You lot stole it first", he grinned, opening up the banana and leaning over to look at Lily's book.

She pulled it towards herself, "You'll drip your sweat on it!"

"It would dry!" He huffed, turning to the other tables before setting his gaze on a certain person sitting at the quidditch table.

James turned back to Lily, "Regulus is kinda hot, don't you think?"

Lily glanced up and narrowed her eyes, "What do you mean by that?"

"Nothing! I just thought it that's all."

She turned to the slytherin table briefly, "I guess you're right."

Regulus looked up from his cereal and charms reference guide for a moment, catching Lily's eye.

James leaned forwards, his voice lowering to a whisper, "I saw you two, you know."

"Hm?" Lily hummed, picking her book back up.

James leaned closer, "In the library. I was helping out Pince, putting books back. And what do I see? Miss Lily Evans holding hands with Regulus freaking Black. Now, what is going on there?"

She flicked her eyes up to James' pondering face, "Nothing. We're friends."

James frowned.

"Fine! We're sort of... seeing each other. a little. secretly. it's very private."

James grinned, "Class. I won't tell anyone, you have my word."

"So", Lily shut her book, folding her arms, as a soft smirk slowly graced her face, "you think Regulus is hot, huh?"

James froze.
