My first Lily/James fic. I'm not that good with the fluff, so apologies for that. I've been addicted to their relationship and I just LOVE reading fanfics about them. I know this is short, but I plan to make a lot of chapters for it.

She was crying when he saw her in the train. He had first seen her on the platform, with her Muggle family. They looked nice, except her older sister. She looked like a horse! You can't blame James for thinking mean things like that. He had nothing against muggles, he's just cocky as he is. James heard that Lily was her name. Beautiful, just like her pretty face. Red hair, freckles, kind of pale, a little short…usually, those traits were not really appreciated, but with her, it was just something different. And those green eyes, wow.

James wondered what those eyes would look like if tears weren't hiding them. He sat in the girl's compartment, together with the three of his friends. He just learned that this curly-haired kid named Sirius Black has his family on Slytherin for generations! Everything about him would go to waste if he ends up doomed, I mean sorted in Slytherin. Peter Pettigrew, this fidgety bloke! He seems okay. Remus Lupin was the quite one. Out of all the three, Sirius was going to be his best mate, he knows it. They've been talking noisily inside the compartment. James expected himself to be in Gryffindor, Where Dwell the Brave at Heart! He hopes Lily hears this, to impress her. But she just continued to sulk by the window. Until this ugly boy came.

Apparently, this boy and Lily are friends. James knew only a little with this boy; he didn't like him. Severus? That was a name? Honestly, his mother must be nuts. Lily left, with that boy, but not before throwing insults at Severus, really stupid name. Rhymes with Walrus. It makes everything about him uglier! Lily left. Why would she rather go with that greasy-haired, tatter-clothed ugly Severus? He didn't look like loved. Oh well, Lily was just some girl. She probably has some cooties. Disgusting.

Cooties? Disgusting? Oh, that was years then. Now that hormones are viciously letting loose, James didn't see Lily as another ordinary girl. He knows that even when it was only their first year that he already developed this little innocent crush at Lily Evans. But now, it was beyond crush. It was more intense than crush. Would you call it love? Yes, I think so.

The fifteen-year-old wizard was in the library, secretly spying, who else? Lily Evans, of course. Lily dropped the several books she was borrowing.

"Oh great," she whispered, and then proceeded to bend down to pick up the sprawled books. James took the chance, and emerged out behind the bookshelves.

"I knew you were there," Lily acknowledged James' sudden appearance.

"What, you can already smell my intoxicatingly sweet smell a few feet away?" James joked as he helped Lily pick up the books.

"No idiot, I smelled your toxicatingly sour stench!" Lily fired back. "And I can handle picking up my own books. I'm not handicapped you know."

"Toxicatingly sour stench?" James mused. "You know perfectly well that there is no such word as 'toxicatingly'. And sour stench, really, that's hilarious. Have you smelled me? I smell like roses! You can't resist!"

"Oh right, roses," Lily smiled at him. She stood up with the books on her arms. "Are you trying to smell like a ballerina? Well you're doing perfectly well. And I 'can't resist'? Watch me." She turned away, walked a few steps, faced him and said, "I just resisted." Then continued to walk away.

"Evans, would you go out with me?" he called, but of course he knew the answer already.

"God forbid it!" Lily answered without turning to James. Madam Pince just shushed them.

James loved the way Lily would reject him. Of course, it hurt him….. a little. Oh come on, he's a man of steel! Usually, 'James got drooled on by all the girls, but sorry for them. He only had his eyes set on one.'


Apologies for the wrong grammar and spellings. Tell me what you think, please.

Reviews help me.

Whoever reviews shall be in good fortune for the rest of the day. Haha!

Thanks!
