"LILY! LILYLILYLILY! Listen to me!" James Potter was practically screaming across the common room, much to a certain fiery redheads displeasure. He had been chasing her for years but she had never given in. She was just about the only girl in the whole school that hadn't fallen for his obvious good looks and charm.

"WHAT Potter?" Lily spat out at an overly-excited James. He was probably feeling shocked that she had even acknowledged him, as she usually didn't.

"Ummmmm... Pads! What was I asking her about again?" He had forgotten his original motive for conversation in the past 3 minutes of failed attempts.

"That would be our game tonight" Another handsome boy by the name of Sirius Black stated with a smirk. They had been planning a game of truth or dare in the common room, which they only knew existed because of Remus Lupin, another member of their group, The Marauders. The Marauders was a four-some including James, Sirius, Remus, and another boy named Peter Pettigrew who tagged along because they were exactly what he wished he could be. Remus was the brains of the group although nobody but Peter did abysmally.

"What game?" Lily asked. She wanted to know if anything against the rules was going on under her nose. She was Head Girl after all.

"Why of course our Gryffindor game of truth or dare! You are-of course-invited! What do ya say Lillers? Join us?" James put on a charming smile that Lily just ignored.

"And why should I?" She questioned him with her famous glare.

"Because it'll be fun! You know you want to!"

"Want to what?" Lily's best friend, Marlene McKinnon had strolled in with a look of mild curiosity settled on her thin face. Marlene and Lily had been friends since third year when they were partnered together in Charms.

"Play truth or dare of course!" James exclaimed with a a look of pure delight on his very attractive face.

"I accept! And so does Lily." Marlene stated and casually exited the portrait hole leaving Lily glaring in her direction.
