Written for the 366 Days of Writing challenge on HPFC. All of these drabbles will be based on Jily, and there will be one for every day of the year :)

Day 1: Open


The way love twists her world around is sickening. It's also deliriously wonderful, like a roller coaster that soars high then plummets without warning then returns to its stairway to heaven, and so on. A year ago she would have rather died than know that James Potter controlled every inch this roller coaster of love.

But he manns her heart with a lever; the more he pushes, the more weight there is in the air between them… the wider her heart expands, reaching toward him and singing James, James, James Potter, James until her head explodes with thoughts of him.

It's disgusting, how she hands him the key that will unlock her love which she has guarded for six years. It's unforgivable, how she is letting her heart open to him. It's absolutely traitorous.

But Lily doesn't care one bit.
