James's POV~
As we sat at Gryffindor table, I could still feel my cheek stinging, I touched it and winced. Remus saw and laughed, "You really shouldn't mess with Lily, you know." I scowled, and waited for the Sorting Ceremony to end. (A/N: I know, I skipped the ceremony, but I don't want to make up too many names, see?) When it did, the food appeared magically on the table as usual. Just as I was about to help myself, McGonagall walked by and noticed my red cheek. She said quietly, "I think you'd better go to the Hospital Wing Potter, and see what Madam Pomfrey can do about that slap mark." Sirius snorted into his pudding. I glared at him. I saw Lily glance at me as I left the Hall, then lean over to speak to Sirius. They spoke for a moment then Lily laughed. I scowled again. (A/N: I love that word!) Arrgh! That Evans!…
Lily's POV~
I looked up to see James leaving the Hall, turning in the direction of the hospital wing. I looked at Sirius for an explanation, and he simply mimed a slap, careful as McGonagall was watching him. I laughed. Potter, sent to the hospital wing, because of ME! Then a shadow of fear crept over me. What if he's not alright? What if I really did hurt him? What if…Snap out of it Evans! He's James Potter! No point in worrying about him! I felt better, but as I crawled into my four-poster that night, I still had my uncertainties.
¤¤¤¤¤¤
I woke up early the next morning, before the sun rose, somehow feeling strangely refreshed. I peeked in the boys' dorm, and say that Potter's bed was still empty. I crept down to the hospital wing, and snuck into one of the rooms. I found Potter lying in one of the several beds, which lay neatly along the wall, looking much worse than yesterday. I sat beside him, and his eyes opened. "Evans," He choked out. "Potter," I returned. He smiled weakly. "What's wrong with you?" I asked, he answered, "Madam Pomfrey gave me a potion I was allergic to." I frowned, "You're going to be okay, right?" He shrugged slightly, "No one knows. No one's had it before."
James's POV~
I watched her brow knit with concern. "You're really pretty when your worried," I muttered. She looked up, "What? Did you say something?" I shook my head. I'd almost given everything away! She smiled worriedly at me, I grinned, "Don't worry about me, I'm James Potter remember?" Her eyebrow rose, but before she could answer, the sound of footsteps drew close. "Hide!"I whispered. She looked around for a second, then hid behind a curtain. The footsteps paused, then walked away and became distant. Lily came out from behind the curtain, then turned to leave. Suddenly, I heard my voice say, "Don't go Lily." She turned and sat on the side of my bed, "I won't" she whispered back. I watched her…unaware that she was watching me…
I could lose my heart tonight,
If you don't turn and walk away,
She's so…perfect. I could, I could almost fall in love with her…
Cause the way I feel at night,
Lose control and let you stay,
I feel…comfortable, with him…
Cause I could, take you in my arms,
And never, let go
I felt his arms slip around my waist and pull me beside him…
I could fall in love with you,
Could I? Could I fall in love…with Lily?
I could fall in love with you,
Could I? Could I fall in love…with James?
I can only wonder how, Touching you,
Would make me feel,
I felt my heart racing as she pulled my arm around her…
But if I take that chance right now,
Tomorrow will you want me still?
Could I do this to myself? Fall for him? He was, after all, the guy who had a new girlfriend every week…
So I should, keep this to myself,
And never let you know,
I love her…I can't tell her…she's Lily…
I love him…I can't tell him…he's James…
I could fall in love with you,
I felt myself fall under her spell…
I could fall in love with you,
I felt myself fall under his spell…
And I know it's not right, but I guess I should try,
To do what I should do,
He leaned towards me…
But I could fall in love,
Fall in love,
I felt her lips touch mine…
With you
A/N: How is it? And no, they did not actually do anything but kiss, alright? Go scrub your minds clean! And italics in black are thoughts, italics in blue are the song.
