A/N: Hi everybody! I'm sorry for the delay, I've just been so busy these past two weekends, and I haven't had any time to update! But I had a really long cram session today and I updated all my stories! This one is my last update of the night, and it should be the most fun! So enjoy!

Disclaimer: My hero, J.K. Rowling owns these characters, I would never steal them!

James POV: "Moony, are you really sure that this is going to work, mate?" I whispered as the four of us stared around the corridor to where Snivellus was sitting by himself.

"I'm positive, Prongs. Just let us handle the first part, and just before she comes up, you play hero. It's a full proof plan.

With every bone in my body, I hoped he was right. I would give anything on the planet, even my position as Quidditch captain up if it meant a shot with the one and only Lily Evans. She was everything I wanted and she wouldn't have me. At this point, if I had to become best mates with Snape to win her over, I would do it.

"Showtime," Sirius smirked before whipping out his wand and stepping out into the corridor. "Oi, Snivellus!" he shouted. "Did you dip your nose in a grease fryer this morning?"

Snape shot up as though a killing curse had been flung his way, and drew his wand.

"I don't know, Padfoot," Remus sneered. "I doubt his nose could fit in a fryer, it's far too large. Levicorpus!"

Before Snape could even react he was being lifted into the air upside down. "Lily!" he yelled. "Lily, where are you?" he shouted.

I stood up a little straighter. As soon as I heard her voice I needed to make my move. She needed to know that I was more than just an arrogant idiot.

"Sev?" an angels voice called out. "Sev, where are you?"

Now was the time. I rushed out from the shadows and threw Remus's arm down, so that Snape could find his way to the ground. "Moony, don't do that," I chastised. "Severus didn't do anything to us did he?"

"Uh… well… guess not," he grumbled angrily. I could still see the smirk in his eyes.

I nodded. "Exactly. Leave the poor guy alone, let's go have some lunch down in the Great Hall. I think they have chicken today."

Just in time, Lily rushed into the corridor and held on to Severus. "I heard you call," she was frantic. "Are you alright?"

Snape shot her a thin, ugly smile. "Fine I suppose," he said.

That was when she saw me. Her gorgeous green eyes narrowed into slits. "Did you hurt him Potter?"

"Absolutely not," I smacked a hand to my chest, feigning hurt as I turned out my pockets for her to see. "Look, I don't even have my wand on me, Evans. I just came looking for my mates and I found them trying to levitate old Severus here and stepped in to put a stop to it."

She looked thoroughly taken aback for a moment. Then her eyes turned to Snape questioningly and he grudgingly nodded his head.

When Evans turned back toward me her lovely face was less angry, but her eyes held a deep curiosity t them. "Well," she said slowly. "That was… very kind of you, Potter. I never would have expected such a thing."

"My dear Lily," I smiled dashingly at her. "If you agree to go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend, you'll find that I'm rather full of pleasant surprises."

To my surprise she rolled her eyes and I saw I smile playing at the edges of her lips. "Oh, you're full of something alright, James Potter." With that she took Severus's arm and they exited the corridor.

I turned around to face the lads then, each of their faces held a look of accomplishment. "I think that went rather well," Moony said smiling. And then we all went down to the great hall to eat some breakfast.

All of a sudden I felt as though there was a ginormous weight being lifted off me. Lily had almost smiled at me! That had to mean something, didn't it? Maybe, just maybe she was finally warming up to me!

"Alright there, Prongs?" Padfoot was grinning and panting like a dog as he bumped me in the shoulder.

"I'm doing awesome, mate! Did you see her trying not to smile at me? I'm telling you I'm close, I just have to talk to her alone, get her to really see that I'm not the kind of guy she thinks I am. My only problem is Snivellus."

"Yeah," Padfoot said darkly. "You may have saved him today, but he'll never believe that you've actually changed for the better. If anything he'll only think that you're kissing up to Evans, and he's going to tell her that like the selfish git he is.

"But do you think she'll really consider his opinion?"

"Mate, by the looks of it, she's pretty much always shared his opinion when it comes to you. They've been friends for years, so I doubt she's ever going to date someone that he doesn't like."

I groaned, knowing where it was going. "I refuse to kiss up to Snape!"

"I didn't say you had to," Sirius smirked. "All I said is that it's going to be harder to convince her, and that you may have to hide from Snape, which always brings a boatload of fun when he's finally in on the secret," he sniggered.

I grabbed him by the collar and shook him. "Don't you trick me like that, Padfoot! Last time it was Remus putting his life in danger. Now it very well may be Snape endangering my life!"

"Oh my dear Prongs, you've completely missed the point! That's exactly why it will be so much fun!" and with that I chased him to the Great Hall.

A/N: That was supposed to be a lot longer, I know. But I'm just too tired to write anymore and I wanted to get something up for you all this week! I promise you guys the next chapter will be extra long as an apology for this one! Anyway, how do you think Lily and James's talk will go in the next chapter? Will Lily finally give him a chance? Tell me what you think! I love you guys very much!

Thanks for Reading!
