10 Reasons (Part 2)

6. You care for people. (Even when you have better things to be doing).

Lily ran into the Infirmary.

"James!" she cried, rushing over, "Are you okay?" Just a few hours before he had fallen off his broomstick in a quidditch match.

"I'm fine, Evans. I'm okay," he said, attempting to smile at her. Lily turned to the nurse, Madam Pomfrey.

"Is he hurt badly?"

"He has a broken arm and a black eye," the woman replied. Lily turned back to her boyfriend.

"You're not okay, you liar!" she punched him in the unbroken arm.

"Lily. I'll be fine. Get going. You're going to miss class," James said, staring at her. Lily shook her head and pulled up a chair.

"I don't care what Flitwick says. I'm staying here with you."

7. You don't judge people for who they are on the outside.

The Marauders surrounded Lily, a serious look replacing all of their usually laughing faces.

"Lily- we have something to tell you," Sirius said. Lily nodded, indicating them to go on. They turned to face Remus Lupin who looked pale.

"You tell her, Moony," James said, "It's your… problem." Remus nodded and turned to Lily.

"You have to swear not to tell anyone. Ever." Lily nodded, intrigued.

"Lily…I'm a werewolf," he said, gravely.

"That's it?" she asked. The boys nodded. "I knew that. And Remus, it doesn't change who you are. You're still an amazing and loyal friend." Lupin grinned and sighed.

"Thank god for you, Lily Evans," he said.

8. You were there for me through thick and thin.

James has seemed so depressed lately. He rarely talked to Sirius and Lupin, and he never talked to Lily.

"Oi, Evans!" Sirius called one day. Lily spun around and grinned when she saw her friends.

"Yeah?"

"We need you to talk to James. Find out what's wrong."

"Why me?" she asked.

"Like he'll talk to us about it. Now go." Lily found herself being pushed over to where her boyfriend was sitting.

"Hey James," she said walking over, "What's been going on?" James stared up at her with sad eyes.

"My younger sister, Amelia, died this weekend." He placed his head in his hands and felt tears sting at the corners of his eyes. Lily sat down on the bench next to him and put her arm around him.

"We're going to get through this, James."

9. You are willing to cry for me.

James sat down next to Lily at Amelia's funeral. She had been 9. Only 9 years old and killed in a car crash. They went through the usual ceremonies, until the pastor asked James to say a few words. He clenched his fists and walked up to the podium, stiff legged.

"Amelia was…she was more than a sister to me. She was my best friend. She knew everything about me and even when we fought, w-we always loved each other. She-she was too young. And my life won't ever be the same, now. If I could have one wish. Just one wish. It would be to bring her back to me. And to talk to her. Just one last time. Tell her how much I love her." He looked out in the crowd and his eyes found Lily. She was crying.

She hadn't even known Amelia and she was crying for her. James knew then how much she cared about him.

10. You told me you loved me.

Lily Evans and James Potter walked down the empty Hogwarts corridors, hand in hand.

"Lily?" James broke the silence.

"Hmm?"

"What would you say to me if you could say only one thing?"

"Just one thing?"

"Yep."

"I'd tell you I love you."

"What was that?"

"I love you, James Potter. I love you so much."
