I spun Lily round to meet my gaze as we stood outside the Great Hall on our own.

"James, why are you doing this?" She asked weakly, as I pulled her towards me.

"Because I love you and I want to be with you so much Lily…Why won't you just let me?" I replied, holding her close to me.

"Because I hate you, I always have…" She answered unconvincingly. I grinned, knowing that it wasn't true.

"I don't think you do Lily. I think you're trying to convince yourself that you do but you actually don't. And I think I can prove it, if you'll let me…" I continued, stroking her cheek. Her breath stilled as she looked into my eyes, causing me to smile down at her.

"Then prove it…" She said, glancing at my lips before returning to my gaze. Within seconds I was kissing her, running my hands through her hair, caressing her tongue with mine, stroking her back and holding her. As I pulled away Lily took a step back. I looked at her nervously, wondering whether my kiss had had any effect on her.

"I guess this means you've proved me wrong…" She grinned, causing my face to break out into a smile.

"Lily, will you finally go out with me?" I asked her, pulling her towards me to hold her once more.

"Yes, I will." She grinned back, meeting my kiss and running her fingers through my hair.

"What about Snape?" I queried against her lips.

"A complete lie to make you jealous." She grinned, continuing to kiss me.

"So you admit you love me then?" I questioned, smiling even more.

"Well…" She replied hesitantly. I laughed and pulled her closer to me.

"Yes." And with that, I took it to be the end of our conversation and continued to kiss her.

"You two should be in the Great Hall having breakfast." I heard Lockhart shout from behind us. With a swift move of my wand he was frozen on the spot, and nothing interrupted us again…


The End
