A/n: I think that this is just a oneshot, but I don't know…the song in it is what I sang for All-State Chorus Tryouts…and yes, I sang it in German. So…have fun reading this little piece, and if you have any ideas about how to continue it…let me know in a fabulous review. Happy Reading!

Disclaimer: I own absolutely nothing. The song was written by Johannes Brahms, and is entitled Der Gang Zum Liebchen. The characters belong to JKR, except for the ones you don't recognize…

"James, you've burnt out my flame of trust! Don't talk to me again!" Lily yelled, tears running down her face. "I trusted you with my heart, James! And you've broken my heart!" With that, Lily ran out of James' bedroom, across the Head's common room to her bedroom and slammed the door shut, sobbing.

James fell back onto his bed, his face in his hands. "What did I do?" he wondered. "What could make her hate me like this? It sounds like she thought I was cheating on her…but I would NEVER to that! It's probably some stupid rumor that she believed. Damn it! Well, she'll get over it soon."

But Lily did not 'get over it' soon. For weeks, she ignored James, doing all of the Head Duties with out him, leaving him alone to ponder what he had lost. James shut himself in his room more than once and did not come out for days.

Lily felt some regret…but Betsy had told her that she had seen James Potter with Fiona McLaggen! It had hurt her heart so much to yell at him and tell him that it was over, their near perfect relationship, but he had obviously violated her trust, and she would get over him. She had to.

It had been almost two months since Lily's pained outburst and harsh break up. It was during one of the times that James would lock himself in his room that Lily happened to be in the Head's common room. Then Lily heard it, a deep, bass voice coming from James' room:

Es glänzt der Mond neider,

Ich soll-te doch wieder

Zu mei-nem Lieb-chen

Wie mages ihr geh'n

Ach weh, sie ver-za-get

Und kla-get, und kla-get

Dass sie mich nimer im

Leben wird she'n, dass

Sie mich nimmer im le – ben

Im le-ben wird she'n

Es gingder Mond unter ich

Eilte doch mun-ter, und eil-te

Dass kei-ner mein lieb-chen

Ent-fuhrt, Ihr Täub-chen, o

Gir-ret ihr Luft-chen, o schwir-ret

Dass kei-ner mein lieb-chen, mein

Leib-chen ent-fuhrt, dass kei-ner

Mein leib-chen, mein leib – chen,

Mein leib-chen mein leib-chen

Ent-fuhrt,

Mein leib-chen, mein leib-chen

Ent-fuhrt

Lily, who knew German, felt tears leaking out of her eyes. She burst into James' room to find him sitting on his bed with his wand pointed at his forearm, where he was making shallow gashes. He didn't look up when Lily entered the room. "James! Stop!"

James looked up at Lily, his hazel eyes dulled in pain. "Why?"

"What?" Lily asked, perplexed.

"Why should I stop? You were my life, Lils! I have no life anymore. Why shouldn't I cause myself pain?"

"Because…because I never really wanted to break up with you! I thought that you had been with someone else! What would your reaction be if I had been with someone else! Forgive me, James! Please, forgive me! I'm miserable without you! Please!" Lily whispered this last word, and sat down next to James, placing her arms around him and crying into his shoulder. And she started singing (A/N: this is the English version of what James sung):

The moonlight is shining, and I

Should be riding, my sweetheart

To see, how lovely is (s)he?

Alas, (s)he's despairing, lamenting,

Bewailing, that never again in our

Lives shall we meet, that never, oh

Never, no in our lives, shall we

Meet, again

The moonlight is fading, I know (s)he's

Awaiting, I hasten so no one will steal her away,

Oh sweetheart, no sighing, my love is

Undying, and no on will ever come take you away,

And no one will ever take you away, for I am

Riding your way

My dear one, my dear one, away

James looked up at Lily, stunned. "How did you know that song?"

Lily smiled through her tears. "A, I know German, and B, I've heard the song before. James, why did you cut?"

"I told you, Lils. It's because you were so angry with me, and…I was rejected…thrown out of happiness. But you're here with me now, Lils…and nothing else matters, my love."

A/N: So…if you have any ideas, tell me and I'll probably continue. Otherwise, this is a oneshot. Now that you've read it, please review it!
