Tell Him

Dedicated to:

Siobhan, Darling, tell your Panda everything...before you lose him

Love Marla


I know something about love
Youve gotta want it bad
If that guys got into your blood
Go out and get him

Lily hated James Potter. Yes, thats right. She hated him. Well at least thats what she told herself. But her heart sat there listening as her head repeated this, contradicting every word.

'Oh, god,' Lily thought to herself, when her heart flipped over in her chest as it did every time she saw him, 'Oh god, I love him,'

If you want him to be the very part of you
That makes you want to breathe
Heres the thing to do
Tell him that youre never gonna leave him
Tell him that youre always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now

"What am I going to do?" She wailed to Ediths' chest as she explained that the rose coloured spectacles had finally been liofted from her green eyes. Edith pushed Lily away from her chest and looked at her.

"Tell Him," She said, Tell him, She made it seem so easy.

I know something about love
You gotta show him it and make him
See that moon up above
Reach out and get it
If you want him to
Make your heart sing out
And if you want him to
Only think of you
Tell him that youre never gonna leave him
Tell him that youre always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now

She avoided even looking at James for weeks, panicking at the thought of telling him what she told him when they were last face to face (which for the record was that she hated him with every sane fibre in her body) was in fact very, very wrong.

Ever since the world began its been that way
For woman and man were created
To make love their destiny
Then why should true love be so complicated? oh
I know something about love
You gotta take it and
Show him what the world is made of
One kiss will prove it

Finally, it was the very last day of the first term, The common room was completely empty as James entered through the portrait hole, as Lily desended down the staircase leading from her dorm. When she saw him. she seriously considered spinning around and racing back up the stairs.

"Evans," James addressed her. sadness plaguing his very brown eyes.

If you want him to be
Always by your side
Take his hand tonight
Swallow your foolish pride and

Lily felt (to her horror) her eyes fill with tears as her eyes met his. James face changed within seconds.

"Lily? Whats wrong?" He took three large strides to her and looked down at her concern showing like a movie on his face. Lily took a deep breathe it was now or never.

"I've been a fool, could you give me some advice?" she asked. James looked shocked but nodded anyway.

"Im in love, but I think I've messed it up. He won't even look me in the eye with out looking as through he hates me, what am I going to do?"

Tell him that youre never gonna leave him
Tell him that youre always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now

By now tears were pouring down her cheeks. James was jealous, through he really didn't show it. Lily obvisiously loved this boy very much. So he simply sallowed it and said

"Tell him." She nodded.

"Okay then, James. I love you, I love you so much and I've been a right dumbie about. Please, Please never," She was cut off, His lips were against hers.

"I've always loved you," He said slowly cupping her chin in his large hands. "I will always,"

Tell him that youre never gonna leave him
Tell him that youre always gonna love him
Tell him, tell him, tell him, tell him right now
