Forbidden love between enemies

It's Lily's last year on Hogwarts. James is in love with Lily, but so are their new defence against the dark arts teacher and a sneaky Slytherin boy. Or are they? Who will get her? Maybe no one will? T/L, J/L and L/L

I don't own any of the Harry Potter characters; I just like playing with them.

Lily was sitting by the window in the Gryffindor common room staring at the Black Lake. Everything was quiet, too quiet for her opinion. It was the 31st of August, and the day before everyone would arrive, the day before the marauders started with their pranks and the day before she started her duty as head girl.

'I wonder who the head boy is.. .' she thought to her self. 'Well, one more day and I'll find out.'

Knock, knock! The door slide open and a tall, dark, masculine figure came walking in. Lily turned her head and her smile brightened.

"Hello," The figures voice was dark and mysterious.

"M-may I help you?" Lilly stuttered, still smiling a bit.

"Yes, you see, professor Dumbledore wondered if you could give me a tour 'Round the castle. I'm the new defence against the dark arts teacher," the man said with an even more mysterious but yet a commanding voice.

"'Course I can," she answered and stood up.

"I'm Tom by the way. Tom Riddle,"

Lily smiled at his green, strong eyes. His dark hair fell into his face as he looked into hers.

"Nice to meet you professor Riddle. I'm Lily, Lily Evans." With this they walked out the portrait hole.

For a while they walked in silence, Lily wanted to break it but Tom was too fast.

"Any plans for the future?" he asked.

"I want to be an auror," she said casually. Tom's eyes narrowed.

"Oh, really? Isn't that really dangerous?" his voice darkened a bit as well.

"Maybe... But I want to help." She sight.

"If you want to help, why not try out as a healer? We'll always need them," he looked down at her.

"Yes, we will and I guess it would've been nice too, but I'm not the healer type. I can't stand hospitals," Lily swallowed.

Tom looked down at his guide's muggle clothing. She had on a pair of jeans, a military green top with the Chinese sign for tiger and a black, thin jacket.

"Why?" This wasn't a question, but nor a command.

"Long story."

'He's so handsome. Dark, tall, mysterious… I wouldn't mind…'

"But, Miss Evans, don't go too far now, I wouldn't mind it, but I'm thinking of you," the professor almost grinned. Lily looked at him in confusion.

"W-what?"

"You should be careful with what you think 'round people," he smirked. Lily stopped for a second. Her face turned to the same colour as her hair, she couldn't believe her ears.

"Did you... Did you really read my... My thoughts? Those thoughts?" She states to breath faster.

"I'm SO sorry, I... I... I don't know what came ov…" she started, but Tom cut her off.

"Don't be, I don't have anything against it, really." He smirked once more and moved closer. He looked down and into her eyes once more, then at her lisp and back to her eyes again. He lifted his hands and pushed her dark, fiery red hair back from her face.

"Want to try it?" Lily nodded shyly and Tom pressed his lips softly over hers.

Lily's knees went weak. The only thing that held her up was Tom's strong arms. Lily put her arms around his neck and by that; their kiss broke into a more passionate one.
