A/N: Just a little drabble thing I did based on a word prompt by a friend.
No. James hated that word. It was such a short to the point word that brooked no arguments otherwise. Lily said it a lot whenever he was around, her pink mouth forming the words on her perfect lips as she spat them at him. No, she wouldn't go out with him. No, she didn't want to see his pen tattoo of her face on his chest. No, she wouldn't want to be on the same planet as him if she could help it.
It was discouraging and frustrating that such a simple word could hold so much hurt and crush his dreams. It wasn't fair. That was until James learned that no did have another meaning.
No, she wouldn't mind him carrying her books. No, she doesn't not like the flowers he sent her. No, she does want to go out with him.
Maybe James liked the word no after all.
