First I would like to say that this is not something as girly as a diary, it is something a lot less girly than a diary, which I KNOW Peter keeps! This is a…. memoir. Like, Memoirs of a Potter. I think it sounds catchy. Oh, and Padfoot, If you’re reading this you can go now because to any canine the only words that will appear on the page will be “Woof!” Now Lets start this thing!
Friday December 8.
Memoirs of a Potter,
Well, today I think was the day that Lily ACTUALLY fell for me. I mean my singing book was GENIUS! (Even if it was Padfoot’s idea. And Moony thought she’d hex me.) Well, maybe leaving it in the dungeons wasn’t the smartest idea buuuut…. I wanted everyone to know that She will always love James! Right Well, I'm bored with diary writing and Will go and make some mischeif!
Yours truly memoir,
Potterlicious definitious makes the Lily’s go loco.
James finished writing and stood up from the desk in the Gryffindor commons. His black hairs in his eyes as he looked around and scrunched his hair up in his hands making it look casually ruffled. A loud grumble sounded in his stomach as he stepped lightly to the portrait hole. One denim clad leg hoisted him up and he slid through, pulling himself through he came out the other side. He ruffled his hair as he looked down the hall. He couldn’t see Filch or any ghosts. In a voice that plainly said that it had just been woken and made James Jump the pink lady said. “Where do you think you are going Young Mister?” James looked scared for about half a second before realizing that the portrait was indeed asleep again.
Stepping down the stairs James came across the cat. THE cat. James, as it would be, wasn’t a cat person anyway but this cat… the fact that it worked for Filch, it was scum. “Shove off git.” James said to the cat before realizing how stupid he was. That cat was the spy! Muttering a swearword to himself, James fled down the castle stairs, heart beating faster and faster. Until finally he came to the kitchens. Sighing a breath of relief he sat down in the large Yellow armchair and lay back. What the hell was he thinking not brining his invisibility cloak?

Remus looked up from his own armchair.He had been sitting there in the kitchens for a while now reading and drinking some hot chocolate.He grinned as he recognized one of his best mates flying into the kitchens and onto the old ugly yellow chair.remus prefered the dark grey own personally.Maybe it was because yellow reminded him of a full moon....hmmm.Time to think on that later.He dog-eared his page before snapping the book he had been reading shut and ran a hand through his sandy brown hair as he sat back,still grinning."Running from Miss Noris again then, James?"

Sirius couldn't help but be unduly amused by the sight of James scampering into the kitchen-- resembling the deer he transformed into on their monthly jaunts-- all legs and speed. He smirked to himself, and took another swig from the butterbeer a kindly house elf had supplied him with.
"Running from Miss Noris again then, James?" Remus quipped.
Sirius smirked again, putting down his bottle and leaning forward on his seat by the fireplace. "You're not scared of a fucking cat, Potter, are you?" He stood, picking up his bottle and walking over to his mates with his usual cocky swagger. "Miss Norris doesn't bite. I think."
He leaned against the wall, raising an eyebrow saucily and waited for a reply from one of his usual companions. It was rare that James Potter was flustered, and Sirius fully intended to make fun of him for as long as possible.

Looking up at his two best mates James smiled at the two. “Me? Running from the cat? Never.” He said overly confidently, his face filling with a dull red color that only occurred when Evans rejected his marriage proposals. So, basically every three hours, but still... over a cat? It seemed stupid. “I was just doing a bit of jogging through the castle at night.” She sighed realizing that the other two would realize it to be a complete lie. “Okay, so I insulted the cat and then bolted. Happy?” He asked and looked annoyed, not at Sirius or Moony, mainly at himself for crumbling so easily.
Shifting in his seat Potter tried to get himself more comfortable. The old yellow seat was different today. Not being able to put his finger on what it was James hailed a house elf and looked down at it. “Mimo!” He knew the elf, the elf knew him. This was the first elf James had ever met within the school when he came across the kitchens by accident in his first year.
“Hello Sir,” The elf squeaked. “You is wanting what from Mimo today?” James simply beamed. “One Butter beer and two chocolate éclairs.” He said as his stomach emitted a loud grumble. Whilst waiting for the food James groaned. “I’m bored. When’s the full moon out?”

"In two weeks.I'm still not pale yet so I'm happy.I still can't believe I let you two talk me in to letting yall start come with me."Remus rolled his eyes and then smiled politely at Mimo.That house elf had been serving the Marauders in their late night trips for years."Mimo may I have some more hot chocolate please when you're done?And I bet Black here's hungry."He turned and eyed his friend who was even more wolfish than him."Whos the latest target for you?Anyone I know?"

Sirius smiled craftily, unable to keep a sly twinkle out of his eye. He casually leaned against the wall, looking at the other two. Of course, he wasn't sure if they were actually interested in his sexual and romantic conquests, but he was willing to talk about it anyway.
"Well, I did hook up with this one girl last week... Can't remember her name." He paused to look at his nails. "Name began with Lil... Just kidding, just kidding. I think her name was Tatya." He turned to look down at Mimo. "Yeah, Mimo, I'd like a hot chocolate too, thanks." He looked back at the others. "Yeah, she was a good kisser. But otherwise, everything's been pretty quiet as far as romantic encounters. If you can think of any girls who I haven't hooked up with, do let me know. I'm quickly running out of options here."

Remus choked on a quickly swallowed laugh.James would hit him as well probably if he had laughed about that crack with Lily.Woah boy.Sirius was playing with fire.Of course that was nothing new....."Tatya?Is she that one french hufflepuff girl?Mate you can so do better than that.But I agree about you loosing options.With you going through girls so fast I'm surprised you didn't go through them all by 5th year."Remus nodded as he got his drink and sipped it.
"As for sending them your way.....no way in hell mate.I'd never want to put one of the girls I know through your ways.I wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy.Well......maybe I would but not a friend."

As Sirius Leaned against the wall James watched the twinkle in his eye and knew what would come next. Rolling his eyes at Remus James actually didn’t mind hearing about Sirius’ girls. It was one way to get to hear about other girls with his mind set so firmly on a certain red head.
James snapped out of his Lily Daze when Padfoot began to talk. His snort when Sirius said he couldn’t remember her name was stopped short when he made his joke about Lily. Mouth open and Eyes flashing dangerously he looked at Padfoot and gave him a quick and playful slap upside the head. “You know you deserved it.” He said and went back to listening. Remus spoke about Tatya and James nodded. “Wait… there are two Tatya’s aren’t there? Blonde Tatya in Ravenclaw and Red Haired one in Hufflepuff? Or am I confused?” James said and looked for Mimo and sure enough Mimo came in with his tray of all the marauders Requests. Taking his Chocolate éclairs from Mimo James smiled at the small elf and then Munched on his éclair.
Putting down the éclair to consider what Remus said, James frowned. “You know, The astonishing rate in which you move through girls has to be able to last you at least another two years. “Mate, you know I’d help you if I could… But I don’t really notice many girls…. You know, other than Lily.” He said and smiled. Even just getting to mention her name was like a blessing to him.

Sirius rolled his eyes. "How the hell would I know which Tatya it was? All I remember was that she was a good kisser. And somewhat good looking... Well. I was drunk at the time, it could have been anyone, really. But I'm pretty sure she said her name was Tatya." He looked over at Remus. "Yeah, I know, I don't exactly treat my women very well... But I think I should probably get into a real relationship, you know? Like, a serious one. That involves more than a month of being together. We all need to grow up a bit." He looked down and then back up at his friends. "Well, not grow up entirely, of course. We just need to stop acting like complete ponces and start being serious."
He looked over at James. "And you, you need to start shaping up. If you're ever going to get Lily to look your way-- you gotta prove your straight edge. She doesn't like bad boys-- remember when I tried to pull the moves on her like the first year we were ever here? That chick is frigid. She doesn't like bad boys-- or at least she didn't like me. First and last girl to ever turn me down."

"Sirius I do believe you are confusing yourself between me and yourself.I am the serious one if you hadn't noticed."Remus rolled his eyes but the were twinkling with laughter."You might want to find out which one it is.In case you ask her out again and you don't know it.She might get the wrong idea."
He smirked at James."And I agree with him though.On you needing to shape up and get Lily.Really mate.What if someone asks her out?And she says yes?"

James smiled. “Tatya. Just don’t ask out ANY Tatya’s and you should be all good.” With Sirius’ decision to try and commit to just one girl James look at Sirius and tried to chew some more on his éclair, finally managing to swallow the chocolate covered treat inside his mouth he half stuttered. “But what bought on this change?!” James said, knowing that it was hard to even contemplate the fact that if Sirius stopped being a git he would have to stop too. “Dang, stop being ponces? H-how?” He half joked, He knew how to stop… but that would mean growing up.
When Sirius and Remus spoke to him about shaping up, that’s hen the reality hit James. He’d have to do something to prove that Lily meant more to him than anything else, even Quidditch. It scared him to admit that she had so much effect on him. He loved her, no longer was it some unrequited schoolboy crush.. this girl set his heart on fire, made him do things he normally wouldn’t. She made him feel whole and that was what made him love her, the fact that she affected him like that. He could make a git of himself forever and never get her or stop being an obsessive fan-boy and start acting like someone who could actually love her and she could love back in a non-annoyingly-fly-swatting way.
Starting to let what he was thinking process into words James looked up at the other two Marauders. “I gave her a reason not to like me, I acted like some groupie and I shouldn’t have done. I really badly want her and I don’t want to loose who I am so I’ll have two sides, I’ll be one me around you guys and one me around her. Oh, and throw in another me for Snape.” James smirked.

Remus blinked.James was finally listening to reason about Lily?Hah!Thank you god for this gift and blah blah blah.He grinned at James."Welcome mate!You finally understand.But why do you need more than one you?Why not be just you around Lily.....just without the groupie thing.I've found out that girls don't like posers.At least not for very long or for a real relationship.They like the real thing."What?Remus has sat in the library enough days and in the common enought times while girls were talking about things like this.One got to hear it and know it even if they don't want to.Actually it gave him a slight advantage with girls but annoying the rest of the time.
