Lily P.O.V.

Lily Evans, Head Girl, Straight A student, and Smartest girl in seventh year (ergo, the whole school), was not happy! She had to face the music, and by that we mean a hundred heart-broken girls, all by herself. All because her idiot boyfriend, the famous James Potter, had to sleep in. SLEEP IN! He was head boy for the love of chocolate! He was supposed to be up before any other student!

Merlin, he's going to get it!Lily thought, looking around the Great Hall to see hundreds of curious faces staring at her. No doubt they wanted to know if the rumors were true. Had the Lily Evans, most stubborn girl in Hogwarts, finally given in? Was she finally with the notorious prankster, James Potter?

Well, the answer was yes. Yes, he was. He also happened to be asleep. ASLEEP! I'm SO going to kill him! I won't even do it with a curse! I'm going to do it the old fashioned way! Slow and painful. Yes, painful. Can't be worse than this. Nothing is worse than this.

Am I confusing you? Sorry. Well, lets backtrack for a second. My name is Lily Evans, I'm 17 years old, Head Girl, straight A student, smartest girl in Hogwarts, teachers pet, prankster (tell no one), Siren, and I'm dating one of the three most wanted boys in Hogwarts. James bloody Potter. We just started going out, see? After me refusing to even talk to him for six years, we are now happily in love. Sadly though, this happened over break, meaning we have to tell the school. I'm seriously starting to regret saying yes to a date. I am going to hear hundreds of I-told-you-so's today, alone. Not to mention this week, or forever. No one is EVER going to let me forget this!

The whole point of my little rant, and the object of my anger: James Potter. If he want's to be alive tomorrow, I suggest he not stay here. He will seriously regret it! See, he is susposidly 'sick'. He probably just doesn't want to face the school on the day we reveal 'the secret that will change the world-or at least the school', as Sirius likes to call it.

James wouldn't do that! Lily knew the annoying voice in her head was right. He had been waiting for the day Lily Evens said yes since third year. That sure didn't faze Lily, though. She wasn't the most stubborn girl at Hogwarts for nothing.

Yes, yes he would!She countered. Great! Now I'm talking to myself! This whole thing really has made me crazy...

As if you weren't already.

Shut. Up.

You know I'm right.

I refuse to acknowledge the voice that does not exist! You. Are. Not. Real.

You wish!

SHUT UP!

"Um...Lily. Are you alright?" Lily looked up from her thoughts, when she heard this question. The person standing in front of her surprised her. James? I thought he was sick. Lily's anger quickly forgotten (I mean, this was James Potter), she gave him a once-over. He looked fine to her.

If he lied, I'm going to kill him!

"I thought you were sick," was Lily's only reply. She sure wasn't about to tell her boyfriend that she was yelling at a little voice in her head. As if everyone doesn't think I'm crazy enough!

"Well..." James stuttered, obviously caught in a lie. Is this some kind of trick? James lies better than anyone I know. Why is he stuttering?

"Um..." He started again.

"James Potter!" Lily yelled, causing many curious students to lean eagerly toward them. No doubt they want a good bit of gossip.

"Ye-es?" James asked, looking slightly scared at something behind her.

"You tell me what is going on right now!" She ranted. When the only response she got was James staring over her shoulder, she turned around. Standing behind her, was a big, black, shaggy...dog?

Wait! What? What is going on? Oh Merlin! Dog! I hate dogs!

Lily turned around, only to have something pounce on her. Lily was knocked to the floor with the force of the dog on her back. When she twisted to try and hex it, Him, she realised in the back of her mind, the dog slobbered all over her face.

Lily shrieked and cowered. Dog! I hate dogs! James! What kind of boyfriend are you?! Save me! RIGHT NOW!! Lily was twisting and turning through all this, obviously freaking out. James began to grow visible worried at this point.

Obviously, I forgot to mention this particular fear...Lily thought wryly. Blood, fucking, great!

Mass caous broke out in the Great Hall, food flew, students fled, teachers screamed and tried to direct, while Dumbledore sat watching all this with a serene smile.

All of this only added to James confusion. The prank was NOT supposed to go this way! Padfoot was in so much trouble! He better sleep with one eye open...

James' confusion was cleared up in a second though, when Lyra Taylor and Mica Bryden, Lily's two best friends, walked into the great hall, saw a dog on Lily, and promptly started freaking out.

James was VERY confused at this point! These girls were not ones to freak out. What happened next slightly shocked everybody, Mica levitated the dog in the air, and walked out of the great hall with it, while Lyra walked over to console a sobbing Lily.

Oh, Merlin! That just had to happen in the great hall!

When James finally registered all this, Lily was sobbing in his shirt, and her was making soothing sounds, and leading her out into the hall, in what must have been five seconds flat.

"Are you ok?" James asked worriedly, once we were back in the common room. Lily shook her head, and burrowed deeper into his chest.

"Lily?" He repeated. Lily looked up, he was looking down at her with a very worried expression on his face. I really should have mentioned that I don't like dogs, should have known it would be a prank at some point...

"Lily? Talk to me! I'm sorry!" He pleaded. He looks so worried...I suppose he's suffered enough, I can't say no to that face! Stupid face...

"I'm ok," she replied in a small voice. Get a grip Evans! Show your Gryffindor pride! Be brave! It's just a dog! Lily shuddered, causing James to pull her tighter to his chest, and started towing her up the stairs and into the boys dorm. Big, black, slobbery, SCARY dog!

Lily was practically hyperventilating, by the time they entered the boys dorm. James towed her towards his bed, leaned against the headboard, and pulled her snugly against his chest.

"Lily," James began again, "What's wrong?" James looked down at Lily worriedly, she was always so brave, and she was sure this was scaring her.

"James," Lily started, James looked visibly relived she was talking now, "When I was about three years old, I was attacked by a dog. It had gone insane, they don't know exactly what was wrong with it, but it almost killed me." James tensed in Lily's arms, "It was a big, vicious dog. It was about twice my size and completely insane. I was in critical care for a week, I now have a severe fear of hospitals, and an even worse one of dogs. I know I freaked out today, and I'm sorry," Lily didn't get to finish, because warm lips crashed down on her own.

"Lily," James said urgently, watching her very carefully, "i'm sorry! It was an innocent prank! I had no clue you were scared of dogs! This is all my fault! I should have," This time it was James who was cut off by a kiss.

"I forgive you," Lily said, "You didn't know. You lucky I'm tired James Potter, or you would be in trouble for trying to prank me at all!" Lily informed him before laying her head on his chest and closing her eyes.

James chuckled before laying back to get comfortable, if Lily was going to sleep, he sure wasn't complaining. What teenage boy would?

Ya. I know. Horrible first chapter. I personally hate it. We had to start somewhere though. It will get WAY better! Promise. Anyway, thanks for reading! REVIEW!!
