I'm no superman

It was a very cold, but clear April afternoon. The flowers spread out their petals, their colors competing against each other for which one could attract the most attention. The clouds lined the sky not unlike big puffy pillows.

The view from the great beech tree a couple of feet away from the lake was one of the best for observing the day.

But was a Sunday and the two head students sitting under the tree were paying no mind to any of this, any of the day that was passing before them, or the squabbling of the first years as they sat by the lake trying to spot the giant squid. Any of the vibrant arrays of the flowers, or the glittering lake that lay before them.

They were blind to everything but each other.

The messy haired marauder sat with his back up against the trunk of the old tree. And in his arms was the red headed girl, sitting quietly in his lap.

She sat with James chest against her back and his arms circled around her waist. Her eyes were closed and she fully leaned into him.

Evens though her closed were closed, his were open and he marveled and stared shamelessly at the beautiful creature that laying in his lap.

"James," she said quietly to him, her eyes still closed, "stop staring, you're boring a hole into me."

He chuckled, his laugh shaking her gently.

They sat a little while longer basking in the warmth of each other, Lily with her closed eyes and James, still staring.

"Really, now James, it's not polite to stare!" she said laughing and opening her eyes.

He loved her eyes, glittering pools of every shade of green emerald you could imagine. And now that her eyes were open she sat up a little straighter and rested her head against his shoulder.

She craned her neck to the side a little so she could see his face and sent a warm smile to him before closing her eyes again.

"Lily?"

"Yes James?"

"Why do you love me?" James said. He had been wondering for a while, and he just couldn't let it go, he had to ask.

"What do you mean James?" she said, her eyes now looking directly at his. "I lover you because, well its you James."

"But I'm not anything special Lily. I cant do back flips, and I don't have laser vision " he said, his eyes averting hers.

She would have laughed, had James not said it so seriously.

She got up and pulled James up with her.

"I don't love you because you're superman, but because you're so good to me. And the fact that you are the damn sexiest thing on this planet." James lips were twitching into a smile. She could see it, so she went on.

"I love you because, you know how to make me laugh, how to make me smile. And you have given me the one thing I thought I'd never find."

"And what is that?" asked James, his hazel eyes locked to hers.

"My prince charming." She said before stepping closer to him and kissing him full on the lips.

And when they pulled away they were both grinning, Lily like a Cheshire cat and James like a fool in love.

He held her close to his heart.

"I love you James Potter, for everything that's in your heart, and don't you ever forget it." She whispered into his chest, her words only barely audible to James.

He held her tighter, "And I love you Lily Evans, and don't you ever forget it."
