The next few months went by without a single piece of drama. James and Mary pretended to breakup. The marauders were clueless of what was going on.

Lily kept thinking about James being her soulmate. She thought she should try to be nice to him now but every time she tried he would do something to annoy her and would make it impossible.

Before she knew it March came around. She hadn't given it a single thought. The month was nearly over and Lily was feeling calm about the whole soulmate situation. She had come to accept that she would never have a soulmate. She would think of many scenarios where she ended up with James but found every single one impossible. There was absolutely no way she and James Potter could get along.

One morning when she went down to breakfast she went over to sit with Alice and Mary. Next to them were the marauders, minus James. Lily sat down opposite Mary and Alice and next to Remus. Next to him was Peter and opposite Sirius.

"So where's Potter" Lily asked.

"Left early this morning, went to get his tattoo" Remus said.

Lily nearly spat out her pumpkin juice. It was over now. The whole school would know that she and James Potter were soulmates. But what if he didn't get her. Then Lily would have to face the fact that she got some one she hated and they didn't even get her.

"It's his birthday today?" Lily asked.

"Yeah" Sirius said.

Lily glanced down at her wrist, by it was covered by her shirt. Remus was looking at her curiously.

"Say Lily, you haven't gotten your tattoo yet have you?" Remus said.

Lily thought about it. She was wearing long sleeves so she could easily said she got it but it was a different name. She could say she hadn't gotten it. Or she could just tell the truth.

"Yeah I got it on my birthday, in January. You don't know a Mason Morgan." Lily said. Immediately she regretted it. Mary and Alice rolled their eyes.

"Nope" Sirius said. "But I wouldn't trust him, he has a first name as a last name. And you know what they say never trust anyone who has a first name as a last name." Sirius said.

"No one says that" Remus said.

"So you shouldn't trust me then" Lily said.

"Well that's different. Evan is a first name and your name is Evans. But still I have my doubts about you. But if your going to end up with James I'm going to look past that." Sirius.

"What doubts do you have about me and me and Potter are not going to end up together, I don't even have him as my soulmate." Lily said nearly screaming. She got up and walked out of the hall.

"She's gone mad" Sirius said.

Lily ran out of the hall and down an empty corridor. Once she knew she was alone she sat against a wall and rolled up her sleeve. There it was on her arm. Written in calligraphy James Fleamont Potter. Lily didn't know whether to laugh at the fact that James' middle name was Fleamont or cry because her soulmate was someone she hated.

Lily heard someone coming down the corridor and she immediately covered up the tattoo. She looked over where they were walking and saw it was Remus. He came and sat dow next to her.

"Your soulmate isn't really that guy with two first names is it" Remus Asked.

Lily didn't know what to say. She trusted Remus but how would he react. "Before I answer that, what doubts does Sirius have about me?" Lily said.

"He thinks your selfish because you won't go out with James. I personally think he's just saying that because deep down he really likes you and thinks your perfect for James but you refuse to go out with him. And I have to admit that when it comes to who James dates, all the marauders have to like them or he won't date them. So far we've never agreed on anyone, except you." Remus said.

"Do you really want to know who my soulmate is?" Lily said. Before he answered Lily rolled up her sleeve. He looked at it for awhile with a look of shock on his face.

"James' middle name is Fleamont, he always told me it was viktor." Remus said. "Oh and you have to tell him."

"I'm not telling him. Just because I got him doesn't mean I suddenly love him" Lily said.

"So the tattoo doesn't even make you like him at least a little."

"Nope"

"Even the tiniest little bit"

"Still hate him"

"Wow"

"Yep, and you cannot tell a soul about this got it"

"Yes"

Lily and Remus went out onto the ground to find their friends. They were down by the lake under a tree. This was one of the warmest days they've had in months. When they reached their friends they saw that James was there too.

"So James how did the tattoo go, any name yet" Mary asked.

"Let's see" James took off the bandage from his wrist and there written in calligraphy was Lily Rose Evans.

"Your middle name is Rose" James asked Lily.

"What?"said Lily.

"Your my soulmate" James replied.

"Erm" was all Lily could get out.

Mary gasped realising what this meant. "That means it's shown on your wrist Lily."

"Lily didn't even get him so how could his name have shown on her wrist. I get that James got Lily, he's been in love with her since third year. But Lily has pure hatred for him" Sirius said.

Mary and Alice were looking at Lily waiting for her to explode and for it to slip out. Remus gave Lily a you-have-to-tell-him look. Sirius picked up on all this and went and ripped the sleeve up Lily's arm and saw James name on her wrist.

"I thought soulmates that were unrequited didn't show up on both peoples wrists. Unless. No. You can't." Sirius said.

"I don't" Lily shouted.

"Then why is his name on your wrist" Sirius yelled.

"I don't know, I must be a mistake or something" Lily yelled back.

"I can't be a mistake. This proves my point further. Their perfect for eachother. You won't tell him you like him just because your too selfish. You only think about yourself."

"Don't you think I haven't thought about him. I've known since January. For the past three months all I could think about was him. About how I might be falling for him or even falling in love with him. I denied that to myself because I new if I ended up with him that wouldn't be fair to anyone. So I kept my feelings a secret so I wouldn't hurt anyone." By the end of this Lily was crying.

"You love him" Mary said.

Lily just nodded.

"Why didn't you tell us" Alice asked.

"I know how you would of reacted and it would of ruined our friendship. And our friendship is worth more than my stupid feelings" Lily said.

"Ok will someone tell me what's going on. Who is Lily's soulmate? Why are you all so shocked that she's in love with him? And why is Sirius so defensive over him?" James said.

"Wow he's oblivious" Remus said.

"Can't believe you've fallen for that idiot" Alice said.

"Me neither" Lily said.

"I'm your soulmate and your in love with me. This is the best day ever!" James said. He stood up and started to cheer.

"We get it your happy" Lily said. Stood up and walked over to him and kissed him.
