James Potter was sitting in his private room, wishing that the pain would just stop. Lily hated him and he had no idea as to why this would be, sure he played some stupid pranks, but everyone but her seemed to enjoy it. He took out his muggle iPod, and turned it on to the Nickelback song, "Savin' Me". He listened to it as he took out his razor and made seemingly unnoticeable cuts on his arm.

"These city walls ain't got no love for me… I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story and oh, I scream, for you… hurry I'm fallin'…" he sang quietly along.

Just then, Lily heard a noise coming from James's bedroom, and wondering what he could possibly be doing at this time at night, she opened his door slowly. She stood in shock as she took in what she saw. The most popular boy in the entire school was cutting her name into his arm, slowly, as if enjoying the pain. As soon as the shock wore off, she almost screamed, "James Logan Potter, don't ever think that you well ever see me letting you get away with something like this!" Her eyes were wide, "You aren't… you can't…"

But James interrupted her, "Lily, I can't go on with this. You will never like me at all and I can't stand waiting for you any longer, this has to end…" He looked her in the eyes, which were brimming with unwanted tears. "I don't want to hurt you… I've never wanted to hurt you, but this is the only way to get over you." He walked over to the edge of his room, where the balcony resided, and went out onto it, again singing to his iPod, this time, another Nickelback song, "I love you… I've loved you all along, and I've missed you, been far away for far too long…" he looked straight at Lily as he stepped onto the ledge of the balcony, preparing to jump.

"NO!" Lily shouted, suddenly running over and grabbing James, pulling him back into his room, tears streaming from her emerald green eyes. "You are such a guy." She said, shaking her head slowly, "How could you not realize that I'm in love with you, I have been since the first day I saw you, I just didn't realize it until now… I just didn't want to admit it to you…"

Lily pushed James into the wall, impulsively kissing him. It was a short and innocent kiss, but it led to most beautiful relationship that had ever been. They never ever doubted their love for each other ever again, and continued to date for the rest of the year, and eventually got married. Sirius Black was the best man in the incredible wedding, while Amee, Lily's best friend, was the maid of honor.

A few years later, Lily was 7 months pregnant with their first child, a boy. "James, what should we name him? How about Ronald?"

"No, that name belongs to someone with older siblings, not the oldest child. What about Harry?" James said.

"Okay, but he has to be named after you also, how about Harry James Potter?" Lily suggested.

"That's a great name, I hope he can stand up to being another James Potter, it's quite a reputation…"
