Hey, y'all. I'll keep it short: This story is really just silly oneshots about all the ways James has made Lily shiver. There will eventually be eight chapters. The chapters will be very short, but hopefully good. This is my first attempt at LJ fanfic, but I have a lot more planned. Oh, and I own nothing. So, here it is:

Part One: Shivers of Disgust
Year: 1st

Eleven year old Lily Potter sat across from Severus Snape in an extremely crowded train compartment. The other occupants of the compartment might have been in their year, some maybe a little older, but they did not seem to be interested in Lily and Severus at all, and so they did not bother them.

"What are they talking about?" young Lily asked, glancing at the rowdy boys that occupied their compartment.

"Houses," Snape said impressively. "There are four. I'll be in Slytherin. I hope you will be too."

"Slytherin?" a young James said incredulously, noticing the two for the first time. He flashed a winning smile at Lily, taking in her lovely red hair and expressive eyes. Lily raised her eyebrows at him.

James turned to the boy next to him (Sirius Black, Severus mouthed to Lily), and asked, "Who'd want to be a Slytherin? I think I'd leave, wouldn't you?"

Sirius chuckled, along with the rest of the purebloods in the compartment who knew his family. "I can't talk, mate. My whole family have been in Slytherin. I'd tend to agree, though. I'm thinking I'll break out of the mould."

"What House'll you be in, then?" Lily asked coolly. She already didn't like the boys.

"Gryffindor, where dwell the brave at heart!" James said immediately, standing up and striking an impressive pose, like a statue one might find in the middle of a big city. "Just like my dad," added James proudly, as if his choice needed explanation.

"I'd rather be brainy than brawny," Snape snarled, glaring at James.

"What house will you be in, since you're neither?" asked Sirius coolly, crossing his arms over his chest and drilling Snape with an icy gaze.

"Come on, Severus, we're leaving. We'll find a better compartment," Lily said pointedly, giving Sirius and James a contemptuous glare. She stormed out of the compartment with Severus right behind.

"Don't let them get to you, Sev!" exclaimed Lily, once they were a little farther down the train. "They are just disgusting fools."

"I am not the one shivering, Lily," Severus pointed out earnestly.

"Shivers of disgust!" Lily joked, and they both had a laugh.

"Hey! You!" They both turned around to see James walking toward them. He wore a cocky smile and there was an odd spring in his step as he approached them.

"Sorry about Sirius back there," James said, running his hand through his hair. "Although it's true. Slytherin is by far the worst house. Everyone says so."

Snape rolled his eyes and scoffed. "Well evidently not everyone, as I don't!"

"No, everyone does," James said, nodding in a self-satisfied way. "It's only fact."

Severus made to leap at James, but Lily held him back. "Don't. It's what he wants," she whispered. Louder, she said, "Whatever. You're not very nice. We're going to find a compartment, and don't you follow us."

James looked a little worried. "Hey, wait up, sweetie-pea," he said smoothly, grabbing on to Lily's arm. "I have a question for you."

"My name," Lily said through clenched teeth, trying to break free of James' firm grip. "is Lily."

"And mine is James," James said smoothly, seemingly unperturbed by Lily's apparent anger. "So, dear Lily. Not that we've gotten the pleasantries out of the way: Will you go out with me?"

Snape scoffed and rolled his eyes again. Lily shivered involuntarily and at last managed to free herself from James' clutches.

"Ahh, so I give you chills, do I Lily?" James asked smugly. He gave her his winning smile again.

"Disgust, James," Lily said cruelly, taking Snape's arm and walking away. "These are shivers of disgust."
