Reveiw please! I BEG OF YOU! OR I WONT UPDATE! I SWEAR...maybe...


"Morning Lily!" Remus called over to her. She smiled at him and waved as she walked over. She sat down beside him and Alice who was busy giggling to Frank Longbottom.

"What are you doing Remus?" Lily asked as she glanced over his shoulder. Homework that was due today. "Why don't you have that finished?"

"I was…sick?" Remus said. Lily had noticed the boy was always sick. It was like every month the boy caught something new.

"Sucks," Lily smiled and James popped up.

"Hi Lily!"

"Morning James," Lily smiled at him and began her breakfast.

"So are you going to watch the Quiddich game today?" James asked. Lily knew he really wanted her to go.

"No…I don't think so," Lily teased. "I should probably study for Charms."

"Oh, yeah of course," James quickly said and Lily laughed.

"James I was kidding, of course I'll go watch your game!"

"Great. Good. Terrific—I mean good," he said noticing he was babbling and tried to cover it up, which just came out weird.

"Yeah, your number one fan is not going to miss the last game of the year!" Lily giggled and James smiled huge.

"My number one fan?"

"The team's number one fan," Lily amended while trying to hide her blush.

"Oh, right. Duh," he said mentally slapping himself. "Well, I guess I'll see you then," James said and quickly sped away toward Sirius Black who was busting a gut for some reason.


When Lily finally got down the pitch, the game was starting. She sat herself in a seat and watched as the game began. Gryffindor was beating Hufflepuff by a lot now, but the snitch still needed to be caught.

The beater for the Hufflepuff team was not very good, so the bludger was going wild. It went by the crowd, saved by Gryffindor team, but the next hit by the Hufflepuff was not so good. He hit it so it went straight to the crowd, and right at Lily.

Not being able to do much else, Lily put her hands in front of her and cringed. She heard the impact, heard the gasp of people but never felt it. She opened her eyes to find James Potter soaring to the ground, unconscious.

James had seen the bludger and where it was headed, and being close he sped in front of Lily like a shield as hit him in the head, sending him to the ground, out cold.

"James!" Lily squealed. He'd taken the hit for her.

She ran down the steps and reached him before the rest of the people began to swarm about him.

Using a spell, she levitated him up and brought him to the castle, half the crowd following her.

He had taken the hit for her. James Potter had taken a bludger for her.

Even in the worst of times, Lily couldn't help but begin to like James, that much more. Stupid subconcious thinking.


When James wakes up. Will he be alright? Find out in my next update.
