I own no one, LJ one shot, fluff. Brownie-inspired. Hehe.
Lily and James. James and Lily. The latest thing. The biggest latest thing ever. The hottest guy and the hottest girl ever, who hated each other, were not an item. But they weren't just THE thing; there was more to it...
James had, for some reason, NEVER kissed Lily. EVER. It was odd, she thought. Maybe he didn't love her. But he was so nice to her, and swore he loved her to the depths of his soul. She believed and trusted him, but couldn't help but wonder why...
One day, she asked him. "James, why don't you ever kiss me?"
He looked at her, with a curious glint in his eye. He took her hand softly and led her to the head common room. "Lily, do you wanna know why I don't kiss you?"
"Mmhmm." Lily replied.
"See, did you know that kissing between couples is to arouse emotions? Did you know?" he asked.
"No, I didn't." Lily replied.
"Well, it does. And that people kiss so that they can taste the others and register it in their brains for later recognition. It's a very droll affair, kissing, but totally unromantic."
Lily was now kind of grossed out. "I never knew all that."
"And see, most of my previous girlfriends, I kissed 'em, cuz well, they were pretty and nice, but not, well, beautiful and amazing. That's what turns me on, not how they taste. I don't need to kiss you because I'm turned on and my emotions are aroused when I look at you, especially your eyes. When I touch your hand, I feel warm and tingly inside, nicer than when I kissed other girls. I really don't need to. That's why I don't."
"James." Lily stated.
"You are the sweetest person I've ever met. Ever in my life. And I want you to know, that I will stay with you forever."
"I will too." James said.
"I love you."
"I lov- You do?"
"Yeah. I do. I just realised."
"I love you too. Always have."
"Good. Now, kiss me."
"With pleasure."
