Lily Evans' and James Potter's relationship has always been a complicated story; it's just about to get a lot more complicated. And so is everything else. They might not know each other well, but they're about to know each other a lot better. Cover art by anxiouspineapples.

Their final year, their final chance at finding each other, his final plan to call Lily Evans his. To grow up. Full detailed summary inside. Canon pairings/characters. JP/LE alongside the ever wonderful Marauders.

It's a challenge. One week. Lily's hanging out with the Marauders. But trying to keep up with four seventeen year old boys isn't that easy. "If I win you don't ask me out. At all. Never again." "And if I win, you're my girlfriend." This'll be interesting.

Seventh year wasn't quite turning out as planned. Lily Evans had always hoped she'd be Head Girl someday, but she never thought she'd be working with James Potter, and she certainly never thought she'd find herself falling for the mischievous young man.

Potter was going to say that he wasn't my boyfriend. I couldn't let him do that. For the love of Merlin, I could not let him do that. I had to stop him. He couldn't tell her the truth. So I did the only conceivable thing I could think of. I kissed him.

Abandoned by her best friend and suffering the torment of her hideous older sister - and her sister's hideous boyfriend, Lily Evans thought she was in for a boring summer. James Potter had other ideas.
