Potter!
Lily Evans hates James Potter, its common knowledge, as is the fact that James has a huge crush on her. Whenever anything bad happens to Lily it gets blamed on James. Whether it is actually something to do with him or something completely unrelated in any way to him it is still his fault.
Everyone found it funny how James never gave up on trying to get lily, no matter what she said to him it never lessened his opinion of her. In his eyes she was the only girl in the world. Now, James could have any girl he wants but the only one that he wants is the only one he can't have. The maruarders are sure that its just the chase, oncer he has her he will no longer want her.
Lily was awoken by Marlene (one of her dorm mates/best friend) jumping on top of her and tickling her until lily could no longer breath.
"I am alwake Marlene" she giggles "p-p-p-please stop tickling me" she gasps laughing uncontrollably.
"Come on then hurry up, I am hungry and want to get to breakfast."
"Give me two seconds to actually get up and dressed then."
As Marlene crawles off of Lily's bed she goes to roll over and go back to sleep, "oh no u don't." Says Marlene jumping back onto Lily's bed.
As they finally make there way into the great hall Marlene shoving Lily from behind to make actually move forward they walk towards the gryffindor table. As they walk along it looking for a seat the walk past the maruarders, James notices this but for once in his life he doesn't say anything.
"She looking to stunning this morning for you Potter?" Jokes Marlene when she notices that he hasn't said anything.
"Aye, she be looking damn good." He says but Lily can tell that he doesn't actually mean it, she though he seemed a bit distant.
James had decided to take a different approach when he was trying to get Lily to go out with him, he decided to try to be just her friend, he was planning on cutting down on the remarks about her and was getting angry with Marlene about bringing up how good Lily was looking. James thought she was looking even better than usual, he put this down to the fact that she was clearly only just up and was still very tired and this made her look extra cute.
James immediately looks back down at his breakfast and hopes that no one noticed anything different about him.
Later that day Lily was walking along a corridor when James came up behind her, Lily was expectinf him to flirt with him or ask her out surprisingly he didn't.
"Hey Lily, you going up to the common room?"
"Ehh yeah I was actually."
"Mind if I walk with you?"
"I guess not." Lily was confused as to why he was being, well, normal. She decided for some reason to give him a chance when he asked if he could walk with her to the common room.
"So umm you got much homework?" Asks James (he wasn't very good at the whole making friends with people thing)
"Yeah quite a bit actually, I have no idea how I am going to get it all done by tomorrow." Replys Lily, sighing slightly.
"Heyhey don't let that get to you, you are smart and you always manage to get things done."
They reach the common room and go their separate ways.
