"Oh Lily, you really are amazing, you know that?" Lily sighed, same old James he was probably going to ask her out again in 3... 2... 1.... and... Nothing.

Huh, she thought to herself, maybe he really has changed. James looked back at Lily and grinned, she quickly looked away and his face fell. 

I need to get her out of my head, he thought, she doesn't like me anymore, end of. No point in going after a girl who hates you anymore, who knows how much time we all have left.

The door opened, and they both looked up. Prefects started filling the room, ready to start the new school year. Lily smiled professionally and James mimicked her, greeting and congratulating the other students. 

Before Lily started to speak, she took a last glance at James. He smiled slightly, his small dimples made him look so innocent and adorable. She breathed in and looked down at the paper in front of her, one thought protruding out from the rest,

I will not fall in love with James Potter.

---

In their final year at Hogwarts, Voldemort is on the rise, luckily though, Hogwarts is still safe... mostly. James and Lily are finally civil but Lily finds herself feeling something more that she can't keep denying. Remus is drowning himself in school work, blaming the upcoming NEWTs, but Sirius isn't convinced, could there be another reason for his constant avoidance? Meanwhile, a new arrival in school has easily made friends with all her fellow Gryffindors... except Marlene: determined to befriend the newbie, Marlene insists on spending more and more time with her. There could be more to all these friendships, but with the stress of NEWTS and a potential war on the horizon, will love blossom, or is it too dangerous to keep loved ones close?

THE MARAUDERS: Rising Moon by siriusly_rey

Remus Lupin held a terrible secret. One that, if slipped, would most certainly destroy his life for good. He'd end up in Azkaban- or worse. Which made him apprehensive to accept friendships. It wasn't fair not to be truthful with his friends. Despite his more reserved behaviour, the three boys he shares a dorm with refuse to let him isolate himself. Read on as Remus does his best to fit in, gain friendships (and perhaps something more?) and get top marks. Delve into Sirius's free spirit and troubled childhood, James's struggles despite his privileged position in life, and meet Peter, who just wants happiness and to be like the rest of his dorm mates. The story of everyone's favourite Marauders - as seen by me. Remus-centered, but also has other perspectives. Warning that I do not have a bunch of prewritten chapters and am publishing as I write. I started writing out of my love for the marauders and my need to see them be happy. Also just for the fun of it. I am also publishing on AO3, my @ is accio_moony_26

Limerence | A James & Lily Story by episkeyyy

I take her head in my hands, and do what I've been wanting to do for as long as I can remember- I press my lips to her. It's better than I could have ever dreamed it would be. Her lips are soft and mold perfectly to mine. The smell of vanilla is so overwhelming it's staggering, but I can't bring myself to care because it smells like Lily. I'm kissing Lily Evans. This a kind of sequel to my story Ephemeral. It's the same story just through James' point of view. (Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters, other than the ones I make up. All rights remain to J.K. Rowling.) *Also, language is worse in this book than my other one because the marauders had potty mouths.* Story through Lily's eyes: Ephemeral by Episkeyyy

Marlene by live_life_with_books

Book 2 in the Generations Series. '"So if we're harbouring criminals, then I'd quite like to know their names," Marlene looked between the two boys. "I'm James Potter," the one with the glasses winked. "Sirius Black," the second grinned, "and who are you?" "Marlene- Marlene McKinnon," Marlene replied, "and this is-" "Remus Lupin," Remus said. "Well Marlene- Marlene McKinnon and Remus Lupin, I am sure we will be seeing more of you," Sirius Black gave them a cocky grin, "but for now, me and my good friend here must bid you goodbye." Sirius grabbed James's arm and the two hurtled off as the prefect who they were hiding from stuck his head into the compartment. "Oh Hogwarts is going to be so much fun!" Marlene grinned at Remus.' Marlene McKinnon had always been excited to begin her education at Hogwarts. Growing up, her parents had always told Marlene and her sister stories of their time at the school. But Marlene is growing up in troubled times. Voldemort is slowly gaining power, and it's just a matter of time before the whole wizarding world is wiped out. Some stories have a happy ending. Unfortunately, Marlene's is not one of those stories. Disclaimer; All references and characters from the original Harry Potter Books belong to JK Rowling and WB.

A Marauder's Guide to Falling Apart by alliegrl

"So we're alone," he said slowly. "That's a thoughtful observation," she whispered. She could feel her fingertips tremble slightly as they clasped around his hair. She didn't know why she suddenly felt so nervous. She moved her hands and allowed her fingers to trail slowly and gently down the side of his face and he involuntarily shivered at her touch. Eventually her fingers landed on his lips and she traced across them softly. They parted slightly and she could hear and feel him let out what she assumed to be an unintentional breath. He moved inwards, his lips pulling from her fingertips to hover near her ear. "I'm a thoughtful person." * After getting accepted into the Healer training program and moving to London, Marlene begins her life outside of Hogwarts. Despite the looming dangers of war, she has a pretty decent life; she has friends who care about her, a boyfriend who loves her, and the determination to keep fighting for a life worth living. But it doesn't take long for Marlene to begin questioning her choices. As the world is falling apart around her, so are her relationships and any certainty that she once had. Except for Sirius; the only certainty she has left in the world. However, war only seems to be threatening to tear them apart. She can't quite put her finger on what has started changing, but something certainly has, and love may not be enough to get her through it this time. It is only a matter of time before Marlene must make the most important choice of all; join the war or fall apart.

The Order of Mischief II (Marauders) by wordsofkaos

[EDITED] SECOND YEAR AT HOGWARTS --- Seven years at Hogwarts is enough to create the most loyal of friendships that will last a whole lifetime, or enemies that will try to outlive you. The daughters of the House of Zion find themselves standing alongside strangers in their first year, only to later be split apart as they are placed in the four different houses. Because of their shared blood, the girls frequently meet up and attract the attention of their schoolmates, and eventually that of the Marauders. From first year to seventh year, James Potter and his friends (the Marauders) gather to become the most popular group of boys, all whilst pulling pranks on their peers. As they grow up, some of their friendships fail to maintain platonic and become romantic, even with the most unexpected of people. But with the threat and worry of Lord Voldemort gaining power, the Zion's and Marauders find themselves in tricky situations, where they question their loyalties and priorities. From discovering their own powers, trading secrets and inventing foolish pranks, to fighting to save the world and protecting all that they love and care for, the group learn they are no longer children and have to give up more than they anticipated they would ever have to. --- Writing Dates: November 1, 2023 - July 9, 2024

I Love You Padfoot (ENG) by AlexJacksonO_Brien

What if in the year of the Marauders there was one more girl who would be worthy of being called Marauders? How would history have unfolded then? The biggest school Casanova and a small and quite mean witch. What happens when these two characters meet? ""And why are you so scared?" Lily laughed seeing her friend. The teenager moved towards her, and as soon as she saw Padfoot, she grabbed the red-haired's hand and dragged her to the corridor. "What's wrong?" Evans was surprised. "I start to worry." "Lily." Girl looked seriously at her friend. "Look, I don't know exactly how it happened, but..." Began, then took a deep breath and finished. "I slept with Sirius. " "How did I know I'd find you here?" James approached sad teenager. "It's not normal for you to be so sad. What happened?" He asked with concern. "I got lost in all this, James..." Girl whispered. "I don't know what I really feel anymore." "Is it about Sirius?" Boy guessed at which she nodded hesitantly. "Go ahead and talk to me." He encouraged her to talk. "Listen, Sirius is my friend, and so are you. Don't worry, I won't tell him. I promise." Potter smiled warmly. "Whatever you tell me, it stays between us." "Thank you." She replied with a shy smile. "You know... I think I'm in love with him... " They both don't know the exact meaning of love. Will all this change in the near future? • Coloring Book Cover by Lean •

StarChaser// Jegulus||✔️ by blue_fanfic_

LONG FIC // COMPLETE Fifth Year has rolled around for the Marauders at Hogwarts. However, this year is a bit different because a certain Marauder; James Potter, has found himself in quite the puzzle You see, James is stuck between Lily Evans, who he thought was the only one for him, and a certain dark haired Slytherin boy, one he never thought he would ever have anything to do with given that this particular Slytherin is a relative of his best friend. See this Slytherin is none other than Fourth Year Regulus Black. James had never seen anything in Regulus before but this year is different. This year Regulus is...attractive. Regulus, however, is not quite the same, see he does have feelings for James, he has done since he started Hogwarts but he had made peace with the fact that he would never compare to Lily Evans. How will this story of theirs pan out in the end? Ngl guys this fic has wayy more smut than i intended it to have so...take that as you will WARNING: this fic IS tagged Major Character Death, this fic is loosely canon compliant, just be ware!

Jealously Wears A Green Mask | Jily by jamseypotter

"I don't know what you're all upset about Lily," Marlene said carefully, "This whole dance was your idea. You did know that dances require dates, right? And you've turned down several boys ... I figured you had a plan or something ... " In response, Lily just moaned, and threw her face back down into the pillow, "I did." Marlene raised an eyebrow, "Well, what happened then?" Lily pulled herself up into a sitting position, clearly about to go into a serious rant. "This dance," she sighed, "was going to be my way to ... well... ugh it doesn't even matter Marlene, he asked someone else." "Who!?" Marlene demanded, unsure of what to think, but despite the indications that Lily longed to rant, the redhead didn't answer. "You designed this entire dance just to get one boy to ask you out?" Mary realized, raising an eyebrow at her friend, impressed by the girl's ambition... ~ Lily designed a whole school dance so the boy she likes can ask her out. When he instead asks another girl, she must use the marauders and her friend Marlene to create the ultimate prank on James and make him jealous in return. Can they really pull it off? ~ Ships: JamesxLily RemusxMary SiriusxMarlene (I would have loved to have done wolfstar but Sirius and Marlene was already written into it) 34k words so sort of slow burn (no smut sorry lol), but it happens over the span of 10 days so.. idk ~ Achievements so far (thank you!!): #1 in Blackinnon #1 in JamesxLily #1 in LilyxJames #3 in Jilyfanfiction #9 in Jily First seven chapters written by @starfishbeliever on fan fiction.net and the rest was completed by me :)o
