Author Note: Sorry for all the changes regarding the name and the prologue and chapter, but everything should be in order now. I hope to update regularly I've completed the epilogue and a sixth-year chapter strangely enough. The ideas are forming and since it only took me half a day to write about three chapters this fanfic shouldn't take too long. Saying that…I have uni exams, but I'll try.

Please enjoy. Please comment. Hopefully, by the end of the fanfic you'll realise why Love vs Blood was a more fitting title.

Without further ado…

Prologue: Against All Odds (because that's how James and Lily's relationship appeared. Right?)

"I knew all the warnings,
Been told all the lies."

"I've heard all the stories
Of kidnappings and such.
The ones parents tell...
Because they worry too much."

"But I wanted to know
Other people out there.
I didn't believe no one cared."

"So I took a chance
And let others in."

"I started talking to people
Because I wanted to see,
If against all odds,
Someone could…love me."

"I took that chance
For something true…
I took a chance,
And I found you..."

"I took that chance
And now I know
I can't live without you
No…No
I can't live without you…"

Celestina Warbeck bowed into the sea of applause. I smiled, my cheeks hurting for smiling so heartily; No matter how little I agreed with the notion that someone like me could find someone she described. I somehow knew I would, despite my seemingly gut feelings.

I looked across the room.

My stomach did back flips…and front flips too.

I already knew...it was going to be you.
