A/N: This is my first ever fanfiction. Please rewiew and tell me what you think.
"NO! Potter you don't love me!" shouted a very angry red-head, Head Girl named Lily Evans.
"Yes. I do." He said calmly.
"How can you love me? We're only 17 for Merlin's sake! You can't possibly know what real love is."
They were in the Head's Room, having a pretty fierce fight. When suddenly James had understood he had to tell Lily what he felt. So he said it. Said the "L" word, the word that many boys were scared of. He had sad that he loved her.
"But I do. I know what love is. Do you want me to tell you?"
"Yes. Please tell me o' mighty one what is love?"
"Okey. First of all love is when you can do anything for another person. I don't think you realised but I changed myself for you. I started listening to the teachers. I stopped pranking and hexing others just for fun. I became Head Boy! Me, James Potter, Marauder, Prankster, became Head Boy. And I did that just for you! Doesn't that mean anything for you?" He had started raising his voice by now. What he didn't realise was the tears starting to form in the corners of Lily's eyes.
"I-"
"No! Listen to me. Love is when you don't give up on a person. And I've been asking you out since 4th year. Ok. I have to admit at first it was because you were a challenge. But I've been continuously falling for you since last year. Did you ever think that I had feelings? That every time YOU INSULTED ME OR SAID NO A PIECE OF MY HEART DIES? DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU COUSED ME TO CRY FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE? OR THAT I-"
"ENOUGH." Lily had tears in her eyes. Those emerald green eyes that James fell in love with long ago.
"Lily I-" He had instantly felt bad. He had hurt Lily, his Lily, his only true love.
"I SAID ENOUGH. Now it's my turn to speak. Do you think I want to insult you? That I want to be hated for lot's of people just because I said no to the mighty James Potter? Of course I don't! I don't want to hate you too. But you make it impossible to have a civil conversation with you. Everytime I come next to you, you ask me out or wink or flirt with me. I wanted to be friends but you made it impossible." She had said these in a normal voice that it made her scarier than when she was shouting.
"I didn't know."
"Of course you didn't know. I wanted to tell you but everytime you found a way to piss me off. Now I'm telling you. Please at least stop asking me out and flirting with me. If we're going to be working together as Heads, we can at least be civil."
"I want to be friends." He wanted to say much more. But he didn't. He knew the farest that he could go with her was being friends.
"OK. Friends but nothing more. Understood?"
"Understood." Said James very, very quietly.
The Great Hall nearly had an heart attack when the two heads went into the Great Hall without shouting by Lily or asking out by James. Actually they were talking and laughing like old friends. Well, the rest was like a fairytale. Friends turned to best of friends. When Lily get to know James they started dating. Lily fell in love with him very quickly. Then James proposed and they got married. They had a baby boy who would save the world. But they had no idea these would happen when they agreed to become friends. All they were thinking was that they were going to be able to spend time with the one they were in love with (James) or that they would finally have a peaceful year withour the toe-rag Potter asking her out all the time (Lily). But as I said little did they know that they would end up saving the world.
