A medley of unconnected drabbles focusing on James and Lily.

Before Harry, before Godric's Hollow, before the Dark Lord was defied three times... Lily Evans and James Potter discovered that neither of them were what the other had expected, and embarked on a relationship that would change the world as they knew it.

How does Lily discover her buried feelings for James Potter? Picks up from James's and Lily's 5th year, shortly after Lily ends her friendship with Snape.

Lily Evans is looking forward to summer - until she finds the Marauders, England's top-selling band, hiding in her barn. Now, she has to deal with rockstar egos, an unwanted admirer, and the dark force that sent them into hiding in the first place.

She was dramatic. He was dynamic. She was precise. He was impulsive. He was James, and she was Lily, and one day they shared a kiss, but before that they shared many arguments, for he was cocky, and she was sweet, and matters of the heart require time.

Lily has always considered herself ordinary. But as she enters her 7th year, things start changing and Lily starts going a bit mad. Suddenly, she's Head Girl, her mates are acting strangely, and there's a new James Potter she can't seem to get rid of. PRE-HBP

well all I really wanna do is love you, a kind much closer than friends use.

It's New Year's Eve seventh year, and James has something to prove to Lily, once and for all. But maybe Lily won't be as hard to convince as he thinks. James/Lily fluff.

James Potter pulls a childish prank on Lily Evans, and of course, name calling ensues. Only, this time Lily is sounding a bit less convincing.

"I think you're an arrogant, selfish pig, and I think you'd be doing both of us a favor if you just left me alone!" Potter stared at me for a moment, an unreadable expression in his hazel eyes, before uttering a single word: "Okay." J/L, Lily's POV.

The rules were simple. Provoke each other. Scream at each other. Snog each other. Do this as frequently as possible, but don't ever, ever kiss and tell.

L/J. The Aha Moment: a point in time when something finally clicks. Everyone realizes that there's something more between James and Lily, though it takes some people longer than others. James has always been a slow learner.

"Then why won't you go out with me?" James asks quietly, looking down at me with blazing eyes. There are many reasons why I won't go out with him. 1 He's a selfish git. 2 He's not my type and 3..."You would hurt me."

For six summers, Lily's parents hear all about that Potter boy. Then comes the seventh.

James knows when he's made a mess of things. Written for lilyjames fest 2010.

Transfiguration Professor. Head of Gryffindor House. Deputy Headmistress. Love Guru. Minerva McGonagall is a woman of many talents.

As if Slughorn wasn't bad enough already, now you'll never be able to see him again without spontaneously combusting from shame.

James and Sirius. "Why can't a heterosexual guy tell a heterosexual guy that he thinks his booty is fly?" An inside look at one of the closest friendships the world will know.

Under the emerald stars, they went to war to bring them down... Lily & James, when it comes to picking sides and defying Dark Lords- since isn't that what they do everyday? Three times they chose to challenge You-Know-Who.

L/J. A series of short vignettes. James and Lily like to appreciate the little things in life.

Mix: 1 portion each of mystery, mayhem, and murder. Add: James, Lily, spies, school, and sarcasm. Stir in: 1 tablespoon each of chaos and enmity. Blend using: sense of humor and ability to read. Serve: shaken, not stirred...

Lily Evans tries to avoid two objects at all costs: humiliation and James Potter. Unfortunately, the two seem to go hand in hand. Especially now that she's stuck in a broom closet with him...

Lily Evans has been distracted lately…and it’s all because of James Potter and his stupid, unbuttoned shirt. Hardly any fluff, but plenty of shirtless James for everybody. Seventh year fic.
