Lily's POV

Enjoy ( :

Hey Stephen, I know looks can be deceiving
But I know I saw a light in you
And as we walked we were talking
I didn't say half the things I wanted to

I can't believe it; I fancy James Potter.

It can't be but the signs are all there.

Yesterday he said he wanted to talk to me so I decided that for once I would let him so we walked once round the lake and he told me that he's given up on me.

That's when I realised.

I couldn't tell him, I mean I've been refusing to go out with him since we were first years so I can't tell him now, just after he's given up on me, that I actually do fancy him and I want to go out with him.

Not now.

Of all the girls tossing rocks at your window
I'll be the one waiting there even when it's cold
Hey Stephen, boy, you might have me believing
I don't always have to be alone

Nearly all the girls in our year fancy him but he's dated most of them and none of them have stuck with him for longer than a couple of weeks.

If he asked me out now I would say yes in an instant and I wouldn't give up on him.

Some boy from my Ancient Runes class asked me out yesterday but I said no. I don't want him to think I'm not interested anymore. Though he thinks it anyway.

'Cause I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself

This morning, I was walking down to Herbology and I just glanced over at him.

He looked so cute!

The sun was behind him so it looked like he was wearing a halo because you could just see the light shining through his hair.

It was raining, but not much, so his hair still stood up in that really cute way that it does and I just wanted to walk over to him and kiss him.

Now I know how he felt.

Hey Stephen, I've been holding back this feeling
So I got some things to say to you
I've seen it all, so I thought
But I never seen nobody shine the way you do

I want to tell him but I can't, can I?

I mean, it had to be just after he says he's given up on me that I change my mind about him.

He's so confident and he's always happy, it's like he's lit up from the inside.

The way you walk, way you talk, way you say my name
It's beautiful, wonderful, don't you ever change
Hey Stephen, why are people always leaving?
I think you and I should stay the same

There's just something about him: the way he struts so confidently and how he says my name, always adding something after it like petal or flower.

I've had boyfriends before obviously but they never last long.

If he asked me out, however, I'd make sure it'd last.

I have to, he's so perfect, I've got to go and ask him out.

I'm walking up there...

There I did it!

He said yes!

I couldn't help myself, I had to but now I've got a date on Saturday.

Saturday

They're dimming the street lights, you're perfect for me
Why aren't you here tonight?
I'm waiting alone now, so come on and come out
And pull me near and shine, shine, shine

He didn't show up.

I was waiting there for three-quarters of an hour and he didn't come.

Hey Stephen, I could give you fifty reasons
Why I should be the one you choose
All those other girls, well, they're beautiful
But would they write a song for you?

I asked Remus where he was.

He was on a date with another girl, Angelica, the prettiest girl in our year.

He blew me off.

So what if I'm not as pretty as Angelica? I love him.

I can't help it if you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself

If you look like an angel
Can't help it if I wanna kiss you in the rain so
Come feel this magic I've been feeling since I met you
Can't help it if there's no one else
Mmm, I can't help myself

Myself
Can't help myself
I can't help myself

I'm not going to give up, I'm going to persevere.

He's perfect for me in every way, I'll ask him out every single day if I need to.

One day he'll realise I mean it.
