Getting Together Over and Over Again
Summery: Several different ways I imagined Lily Evans and James Potter getting
together… sorry if they are short; please read and review!
Chapter One: Clueless
"Go out with me?" whispered James on the train.
"No," said Lily. But since the beginning of 7th year, it was getting very hard to say that. James had grown over the summer, leaving Lily almost a head behind him. Not to mention his sudden hotness, or his muscular body from playing Quidditch. And, to top it all off, he was Head Boy with Lily! Wait- what?
"You are Head Boy? No way!" James smirked, that mischievous, cute smirk. Lily mentally smacked herself for thinking the latter thought.
"Way!" he laughed, and Lily too, had to grudgingly smile.
"So, what pranks has this Head Boy irresponsibly planned this year?" shot back Lily.
"None," said James simply.
Lily cracked a grin, then giggled, and finally burst out into peals of laughter. "No… pranks?" she hooted. "Nice try."
But Lily was mistaken. No pranks did James play, not even at Snape. For 3 weeks, he hadn't pulled a single prank, or fail to hand in homework. He became more responsible, and broke up people who were fighting, instead of joining in the choruses of "FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT…" This only made Lily more frustrated, because that only made James all that more want-able for her.
So they became friends. Lily went everywhere with the Marauders (except on full moons; she knew). James and Lily started flirting shamelessly, so much that the 'We Love James Potter So Much He Is So Hot And Sexy Fan Club' tripped her in the halls.
Once, Allyson, a pure blood, called out to her, "Hey, Mudblood!"
The next thing she knew, James came from around the corner, hexing her with every legal curse he knew shouting.
"DON'T… (bat bogey hex) CALL… (jelly legs) HER A… (he banished her into a wall) MUSDBLOOD (stunning spell)!!!!" he roared, finishing the last spell.
Lily's P.O.V.
He ran over to me. "Are you ok? Did she hurt you?" he said softly. I looked into his eyes. I could see him dying inside, worried about me, because I got call a Mudblood. Why doesn't he ask me out? I asked myself. It was obvious we liked each other.
"I'm fine, I'm just going to go to the Common Room, ok?"
"I will be there in one sec, I just have some… finishing up to do." He growled.
"Ok," I obliged.
Minutes later, James came up. He sat in the armchair next to me. He were silent. Then,
"You annoy me," I said calmly.
James blew it.
"WHY?" he screamed. "WHY DO I ANNOY YOU? THIS WHOLE YEAR I HAVE GOTTEN GOOD GRADES AND NOT PLAYED A SINGLE PRANK TO IMPRESS YOU! AND I HAVN'T ASKED YOU OUT SINCE ONCE, ON THE TRAIN! BUT, NO, I'M NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU… WHY, WHY DO I ANNOY YOU?"
I stood up. "Because you are so damn clueless," I said, and kissed him full on the mouth.
A/N: I know, I know, kind of sudden. I think I should have put:
James closed in on me. We stood there, in blissful silence, lips on lips. I breathed in his intoxicating scent.
"Will you go out with me?" he asked.
I raised my eyebrows. "About time, too! Why did you take so long?"
We laughed, and James kissed me again. I had a feeling it was second in a long line of kisses from him.
But it was only just a hunch.
Yah, I think that ending was better. If I get 2 reviews, I will update really soon. Please, just tell me what you think!
