A/N: I've decided to write a series of one-shots/drabbles. I've given up on the idea of me actually writing a proper story, although I do have one in the making right now, it's just taking
a while for me to get my head clicking. But anyway, I hope you like this; it's just going to be through their seventh year, so I hope you like it!

Chapter One: In which you meet the Lovers-To-Be

"Lily!"

Oh god, not now. Lily forced a smile on her face and looked up, smiling politely.

"What do you want, Potter?" She asked, her smile faltering.

"Oh nothing, just your company." He said, winking. Lily sighed and moved over on the couch, making room for him.

"Fine, but any…any…funny business and your gone, okay?" She asked, threatening him with the tip of her quill. James beamed and nodded, slipping into the seat beside her. He leant back into the couch luxuriously and closed his eyes, taking in the beauty next to him. Lily sighed and went back to work.

Why does he have to come now? She asked herself, shaking her head slightly. Ever since they had become Heads he had been nothing but nice and chivalrous.

Something about him had changed, and she wasn't sure if it was all for the better. He had yet to ask her out, pull a prank or hex Snape in the hallways. She really wasn't sure what to do.

Sighing in defeat, Lily threw down her quill. She had been working on her essay for over four hours and had gotten nowhere.

"This is hopeless." She muttered, massaging her scalp. She fell back into the couch, closing her eyes and enjoying the silence. She was just drifting off to sleep when she heard a quite 'Oomph!' from behind her. Her eyes snapped open and she twisted around, looking behind the couch.

"Erm, Lily? Could you help me? Please?" James asked, his voice muffled by the sweater stuck over his head. Lily burst out laughing and bent down to help him up. She pulled down on the sweater hard and with a few more complaints from James, had the sweater on him in no time.

"What were you trying to do?" Lily asked, still smiling.

"Eat a cookie…" James said, holding up a half eaten cookie. Lily chuckled once more before taking the cookie out of his hand.

"Oi!"

"You were also trying to put on an extremely to small sweater," Lily pointed out, munching on the biscuit happily.

"Well, yeah. Its tight, so it shows my abs. impressed?" James asked, smiling hopefully.

"Much as I would love to be, no I'm not." Lily replied, laughing.

"Oh, well. Will you help me get it off?" He asked. Lily stifled another laugh and motioned for him to hold his hands above his head. He did so, and with some elbow grease and good yanking skills the sweater was off.

"Oof, that was horrible that was. Positively claustrophobic in there." James said, taking what was left off the cookie and putting it in his mouth. Lily scowled at him and lay down on the sofa.

"Hey Lily," James asked, waking her out of her daze again.
"What?"

"Go out with me?"

"It's two in the morning, why now?" She asked.

"I'll try again tomorrow I guess…" Lily heard James whisper to himself just before falling asleep.


A/N: Ok, I know that was short but these are going to be short.
Normally just small conversations between James and Lily.
From where I'm writing, she doesn't absolutely hate him. They're just friends.
But please review! It's my motivation! Please?
