Disclaimer: Lily and James aren't mine foo.

A/N: Review!!

The bell rung. Lily's next class was American Cultures. Her teacher, Mr.Binns was dead boring and more than likely older than dirt.

She ended up scoring a seat next to the hunk of the day; James Potter. Luckily she heard someone say his name in the hallway. He wasn't anonymous anymore. The bad thing about sitting right next to him was that she couldn't stare. He'd more than likely catch her in the act. Ask him out before anyone gets the chance, she thought to herself.

Mr. Binns fell asleep, mid-rant.

Game time. Lily thought to herself.

"Hey," Lily said to James, "I'm Lily."

"Hey! I'm James. I'm new here," he said.

"I k-know that," she said, so excited he was talking back she was stuttering. " I was wondering…" she paused for dramatic effect.

"Whoa. I fell asleep again. Ugh. I can't believe myself. Now, where was I, oh yeah. King Tut." Binns said groggily, seeing as he just woke up. Lily sighed. She was discouraged because James' attention was now brought to the rambling Mr. Binns.

Damn it, Lily thought, I'll have to wait until later. Unfortunately for Lily, Mr. Binns' rant was so boring the class seemed to stretch on for forever. Ever now and then, Lily snuck a glance at James. He seemed somewhat interested in what Mr.Binns was saying. She kept staring, and James must have had the feeling that someone was watching him because he turned his head and looked at Lily. Her heart pounded as she looked away.

Finally after what seemed like ages, the bell rang and Lily went to her locker to drop off her books and get her gym clothes. She grabbed her bag and waited for her friend Annie, who had long black hair and violently blue eyes, to get her stuff and they then departed to gym class.

They got to the locker room then changed quickly. They went out to the main gym and the divider that was usually there to separate the boys and the girls wasn't there.

"Ugh. Gym with the boys today." Annie said, rolling her eyes.

" I hate it when they do that without giving us notice." Lily said.

"Yeah, because how do I know that I'm going to have to save all my athletic abilities so for gym so we can annihilate the boys. And nobody else in our stupid gym class does anything. All they do is stand and talk about the 'hot gossip'," Annie said fuming and using air quotes.

One by one the boys straggled out of their locker rooms, and last but not least, and to Lily's surprise, James came out. He didn't change. She was so surprised she didn't notice that Annie was talking to her.

"Yo! Lily! Wake up!," Annie said, shaking Lily energetically.

"Ugh. What is it this time," Lily asked regaining her balance.

"You aren't paying attention, you're off in La La land!"

"No I wasn't!"

"Yes you were. You were staring at the guys. I thought you said the boys at our school were a waste."

"Well, they are, except for one."

"Which one?"

"Well… you see the new guy over there?"

"Woah, Lils! You like a metalhead."

"Uh…" Lily blushed. "Kinda."

"Oh. That blush wasn't a kinda… that blush was a heck yes."

"How come you didn't tell me earlier?"

"He just came in today!"

"Oh yeah. Duh," Annie said, slapping herself in the face. James was looking at the two of them weird.

The boys gym teacher came out and so did the girls gym teacher. They boys and the girls were going to play kickball together.

"Oh cool," Annie said, cracking her knuckles. " I'm good at kickball."

Lily sighed. She hated kickball, especially with the boys. But Annie was great at it. Fortunately for Annie, the game went by very fast, and the girls ended up winning.

"Yeahh!" Annie screamed at the boys. "Take that you sissies."

All the boys looked at her like she had five heads.

"Whatever," she retorted as we were walking back into the locker room. We quickly got changed and then we waited out side the locker room until the bell rang.

Well??
