Chapter 1 "Attached to You" by marauderyears

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or anything related to it, J.K Rowling does.

Important Note: This story will be from either James' or Lily's POV. The Third POV was just for this chapter.

James' POV

"Where'd you get them again?" Remus asked suspiciously.

I grinned mischievously, dangling the shiny medal in the sunlight that streamed through the open window in the boy's dormitory, and said casually, "Knicked 'em from Filch when I had detention."

"What are you going to do with them?" Sirius asked with a maniac glint. I'm sure he had a few of his own ideas, but considering that I found them, I'd be the one to decide what to do with them.

"Oh I'd say test them out on an unsuspecting victim..."

"Oh Merlin." Remus slapped his hand on his face. "You're not going to try it on Lily are you?"

My face cracked into a big smile. Remus sighed, defeated and settled down to finishing his History of Magic essay.

Sirius laughed. "Prongs, no offense man, but this is NOT the best way to win Fair Lily's heart."

I shrugged. "Padfoot, trust me. With these Magical Handcuffs, she's going to have to spend a lot of time with me and than maybe she'll get to know me a little better."

"Wait...are we talking about the same thing?"

I gave him a weird look. "I think so... Handcuffing me and Lily together?"

Sirius laughed. "Oh! I thought you were planning on shackling her to the bed and-"

"No, I'm not a pervert! I may be infatuated with her, but I'm not about to stoop that low!" I said, giving him a disgusted look. Does he think I'd do that?

Sirius raised his hands up in defeat. "I didn't say you were. Anyways, I still don't think this is the right way to go about this."

"Oh come on. I've got the key to them so if anything goes really wrong I could just unlock them."

Remus looked up. "Well at least you've thought a little itty bit about this."

I handed him the key. "I only trust you with the key, so you can keep it safe. Or in other words keep it away from Padfoot." Remus snorted into his book. "Well anyway, I'm going to go find my lovely volunteer..."

Third Person POV

Remus and Sirius watched James walk out of the room. Sirius looked at the key that Remus was holding.

Sirius grinned. "Hey Moony do you think I could-"

Remus rolled his eyes. "Don't even think about it."

"Aw, come on. Wouldn't that be funny if they were stuck together?"

"Yeah, a regular riot." Remus answered, sarcastically.

Sirius went to grab for the keys, but Remus snatched them out of reach.

"I don't think so, Padfoot. Prongs would kill me."

"Nah, he wouldn't. But Evans might..."

"Which is even more of a reason to keep it out of your grasp."

Sirius sighed and feint turning around, but instead grabbed Remus' hand and tried to pry the key out of his grasp.

"No Padfoot, stop!" Remus managed to sputter as he attempted to keep hold of the key. Sirius managed to grab the keys out of Remus' hand and jumped up.

"I got them!" Remus tackled him and the key flew out of both their grasp and onto the sill of the open window.

There was a split second in which Remus and Sirius both looked at each other. At the same time they both lunged for the key, knocking it out of the open window.

Sirius looked at Remus. "We're screwed."

Remus stared out the window, looking out across the Hogwart's grounds. "Oh, most definitely."

James' POV

I walked out of the dormitory and down the stairs to the Common Room. I found my victim sitting by the fireplace with her nose in a book...as usual. I sauntered over to her and pulled the book at of her grasp.

"Hello Evans, fancing seeing you down here." I said smoothly- if I don't say so myself.

She gave me one of her icy glares. "Potter, give me back my book and leave me alone."

I held it out to her but as she reached to get it, I pulled it farther from her. She narrowed her eyes at me, but I just smiled charmingly at her.

"Potter, I'm going to hex you into next Sunday if you don't give me my book right now. Do I make myself clear?"

I handed her book back. "Crystal clear." She went back to reading and dutifully ignoring me. No one else was in the Common Room seeing how late it was.

"Evans, go out with me." It wasn't a question.

"No."

"Please?"

"No."

"Why not?"

"Do you really have that much time?"

I gave her a sour look. Why must she always be so difficult? Well, that's what I like about her...

"Guess what I found today!"

"A life?"

"Even better, a pair of Magical Handcuffs!"

She gave me a weird look. "That's great Potter, but why would I care?"

I shrugged and grinned at her. Her eyes widened and she stood up.

"Potter don't you dare! If you even think about it-" She turned to leave but I quickly clipped the cuffs on her left arm and onto my right arm. She looked up at me (I'm quite a bit taller than her) and raised her hand to slap me, but I caught it in midair. Her hand, that is.

We both looked at the silver handcuffs and watched as they wavered a bit and than disappeared completely.

Lily raised her eyebrows. "Potter, they didn't even work. Next time you try to prank me, at least make sure it works so you can maintain some dignity."

I frowned down at her. "Look Evans, you don't have to be such a bitch about it-"

Her mouth dropped open. "I beg your pardon, but I did not ask you to bother me."

"Well than maybe you shouldn't be so darn cute and I won't bother you."

"I knew you were shallow Potter, but that's really shallow."

I narrowed my eyes slightly. "Evans I meant cute inside and out."

She growled. "Potter you don't even know me!" She turned around to storm away but only got a few inches when she was pulled back to me by...the handcuffs? I guess they are still there... We both glanced down at our hands but didn't see any handcuffs. I felt my face break into a grin at my luck. Invisible handcuffs!

I leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Well I guess now's your chance to get to know me."

A/N: I'm just trying something new...If no one likes it, I'm just going to drop the story. Tell me what you all think...please be nice...
