Library?Again Prongs?
Year 1: 1st Week of Hogwarts
He had been watching her for a few days. She had the most brilliant green eyes he had ever seen. Her hair was a dark orange, on the verge of becoming red. Today she was in the library-again he noticed. That girl read everything.
"Library? Again James?" Sirius Black, a handsome boy with ebony locks that reached his shoulder came up beside James Potter, befuddled. He noticed whom his best friend was staring at.
"Ah- the Evans girl-"
"Shhh!" James whispered fiercely, his index finger to his lips.
"Ok, ok…" Sirius rolled his eyes.
"I think I'm going to talk to her."
"What! Now?!"
"Right now."
"Uh… alright mate."
James walked confidently up to her. He was the face of casual and cool. She was sitting in a maroon armchair, reading (as usual). Noticing James's shadow hanging over the pages, the girl glanced up. Her eyes struck James, more than ever. She had a soft voice that could probably become very commanding when needed.
"Umm…yes?" she asked, a little timidly.
"Hi. My name's James Potter."
"I know. A lot of people talk about you. I'm Lily. Lily Evans."
Lily. It was a wonderful, pure name James thought. Lily, Lily, Lily.
"Uh yeah," his childish, polite side took over and he said with a flourish, " pleased to meet you Miss Evans." James gave a comical little bow. All the girls in the library who noticed goggled at him admiringly. Lily giggled, stifling the noise with her hand when Madam Pince began glaring in their direction.
"Nice to meet you James."
"Do you like reading a lot?"
"Yes. And well, I'm muggleborn so I don't know much about…this world. I'm trying to learn as much as I can."
"Ah, muggleborn."
"Mhm."
…
"You know you're really pretty?" James blurted out suddenly.
"I-uh…. Thanks?" Lily blushed a deep shade of scarlet.
"Will you marry me someday?"
Lily's eyes were now as large as saucers and she began to pack her books into her bag.
"Um… I think I heard my friend calling me. I better get going… Uh… it was nice talking to you James." She quickly exited the library, almost tripping over the leg of a table on her way out.
" 'Guess that didn't go over too well." Sirius said.
"She'll see. One day, she'll like me as much as I adore her." James stared dreamily at where Lily had been sitting.
"Uh, alright mate. Whatever you say. You might wanna try asking her out on a date before… marriage though. But whatever you say."
