Prologue
The Winter holidays were fast approaching and Lily Evans had put her name down to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas this year.
Her parents wanted to go to Florida and Lily didn't really enjoy travelling or heat - plus she'd been given lots of homework to do over the holidays which needed research and practise - so she had suggested she stayed at Hogwarts.
Her parents had not been keen on the idea at first but Lily had managed to convince them it was best (and that the Head Girl was expected to say at Hogwarts for the Christmas holidays), after many long letters.
She was glad she had, as this meant she would have a whole Christmas free of hate filled glares and nasty comments from her sister, Petunia.
...
To Lily's slight displeasure she had noticed that James Potter was also staying at Hogwarts for Christmas. She hoped this would not mean that she had to put up with him constantly trying to flirt with her no matter how many times she told him to get lost, leave her alone and stop making a fool of himself.
James Potter had been trying (and failing) to win Lily's heart since their second year at Hogwarts and it was a puzzlement to Lily why he was still trying. She had always thought of him as an arrogant toe-rag (but an attractive one), though since last year James seemed to have matured and grown up a lot, becoming more bearable. Once last year for a minute or two, Lily had found herself really liking James, until she reminded herself what he was like and the liking had vanished.
Kinda.
