A/N: Yay, my first one-shot fanfic! I hope you enjoy!
Lily Evans was a seventh year in Hogwarts. She had a boyfriend named James Potter; she was getting top grades in everything, and was about one of the happiest people in the world.
She was studying for an exam, when she saw the James-Potter fanclub. It was still going strong, even after James started dating Lily.
Lily rolled her eyes at their stupidity and left to study in the common room. Well, she was about to, when-
"Hey! Evans!" One of the girls yelled. Lily let out a deep breath, and made her way over to the cluster of girls. She smiled, though inside her she wanted to glare at all of them and tell them to leave her alone.
"Yes?" She asked, though slightly gritted teeth.
"Are you currently dating James Potter?" The same girl asked. She was from Slytherin, though why a Slytherin would be interested in a Gryffindor was beyond Lily's knowledge.
"Yes, I am." Lily replied, smoothly. "
Well, I have a question." The girl asked. Lily nodded for her to go on.
"Why would James Potter ever like someone like you?" The girl asked, smirking. Lily's polite smile disappeared in a flash.
"Yeah!" A Ravenclaw agreed. "You're so ugly!"
"And you were such a brat to James in the beginning." A Gryffindor fifth year pointed out.
"You act so stuck up all the time." A Slytherin sixth year said.
"And not to mention, you are a Mudblood." The leader glared, angrily. All the Slytherins burst out laughing.
Lily grew red in the face. She turned around to leave the library, when a Ravenclaw pulled her hair. Lily moaned in pain but continued walking out of the library, leaving all the girls behind her.
Lily walked down the halls quickly. Words were circling around in her mind.
"Ugly!" "Brat!" "Mudblood!" Her mind seemed to be screaming these words at her.
Lily's eyes were beginning to blur. She had no idea where she was walking. She tripped over her robe and fell on her face. Now pain was added to all the emotions. Lily couldn't take it anymore. She sat on the nearest staircase, and sobbed into her hands.
She didn't hear anyone, until she felt a hand on her shoulder. Lily jumped, but saw only James. At that moment, she realized he was the one she needed most. She hugged James, and James put his hand through her hair.
"Lily? What happened?" He asked softly.
"Nothing, it's just that…" She paused, and then started again. "Am I ugly? Am I a brat? Am I a… Mudblood?" She whispered the last words, tears beginning to blur her eyes again.
James only hugged her tight, remaining silent. Finally, though, he let her go and stared into her bright green emerald eyes which, at the moment, were clouded with tears.
"Evans, I think you have finally lost it. You think you are ugly? That's like asking if a diamond is beautiful. And of course it is. And you are a diamond." She turned red again.
"And you are not a brat, not one bit. And, though you may be a muggle born, you are certainly not a Mudblood.
"Lily, you are the most precious thing on this planet. You are talented, smart, beautiful, and kind. And if some people can't see it, than they are blind." James said, hugging onto her again. She hugged onto him in return.
"I love you Lily." He whispered into her ear. "And I wouldn't leave you for the world."
