7th Year

James-

He had asked her out. It had taken a lot of convincing on Moonys part and plenty of screaming and "don't be a prat, you're a Gryffindor for a reason!' on Padfoots part, but he had done it. He knew he had asked Lily the same question for so many years without hesitation, but now… it was different. It was his last year at Hogwarts. He needed to buck up the courage or die alone. The first option sounded much more appealing.

So one day he had decided to "quit being a git and go do something with your life!" as Sirius had put it, again with the "wonderful" Sirius quotes.

So he had asked her if she wanted to go to Hogsmead with him and she had said yes! His heart had literally fluttered at the word.

They had stood there, beaming up at each other like idiots, until the moment was ruined when Sirius and Marlene had stumbled out of a broom closet nearby, still full on snogging. They had even fallen on the ground and still managed to swap spit like there was no tomorrow.

What an odd day.

Lily-

She was dating James Potter. She was dating James Potter. SHE WAS DATING JAMES POTTER! Somehow in sixth year, when she had become friends with James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter, she managed to fall in love with James. It was weird and unbelievable, but it was the best thing that had ever happened to her.

Sometimes they would just sit by the lake and watch the sun sink lower, and lower into the sky until it was obscured from their view. And then it would be ruined by someone, usually a drunken Sirius who would skip around them in circles chanting "Oh happy day!' and then would drunkenly collapse into the lake where then James and Lily would have to fish him out.

But it was still amazing, he was still amazing. She often wondered why she had not agreed to date him before. She would cheer him on during a Quidditch match, sometimes they would stay up at night talking in the heads common room, and oh the snogging; that boy did amazing things with his tongue.

Being in love was amazing, absolutely amazing.


AN: It's over! How time flys *sniff sniff*. I hope you all enjoyed that! I thought I did pretty good on this last chapter :D! James's thoughts were when they had first gotten togethor and Lily's were after they had been datting for a while, just incase anyone was confused. Also I finally realized this story should probably be T because of... things. Thank you sooooo much!
