Disclaimer: I don't want to get sued so I'm saying right now that this doesn't belong to me. The plot does but not the characters, maybe the Mary sues but that's all. The rest belongs to J.K. and not me (

Author's Note: Wow, you guys like it?!? If you like Lily/James could you guys give my fic "Let Me Be the One" a look. It's a songfic. Sweet and to the point. I'm so happy you guys liked it! * starts singing I'm Walking on Sunshine* Well I would like to thank everyone who reviewed chapters one and two, so here it goes and if I missed you let me know and I'll add you in ok?

Chocolatkiss! : Thank you so much for the review, to answer your questions James put the necklace on Lily after she went to sleep (you'll hear the whole part in this chapter from James' pov. Lily thanked Remus because she thinks it was from him. If that doesn't make sense I'm going to try and explain it in this chapter but if I don't just let me know and I'll elaborate. Thank you so much!

Snow Lepoard: I know what you mean. Bad Remus! * turns around and yells at a little Remus sitting on her desk* I'm really happy you liked it!

SAKURAnTOKYO: I'll try ( Thanks for the review!

AmiAmiNSusu: This chapter is from James' pov so I hope you like it. Boys can do stupid things when they get upset…

Sweet Star: You are so (I just have to say this, I'm sorry, your probably get this all the time) sweet! Your poems are wonderful, I went over and r/red them all. You are extremely talented! Hope you like this chapter.

martini addict: Thank you for reviewing both chapters! I'm not a real Remus/Lily fan, I'm a sap for James and Lily but I decided to do something just a bit different. You'll be happy by the end I think, if I get that far. (I want to go to death, at least secret keeper time)

kristatwen: Thank you! I was so sure everyone would flame me. I hope I don't let you down with this chapter.* crosses fingers *

SasseeSam: How can I ever begin to thank you? To answer your question; Yes James did give the locket to Lily (you'll find out about it in this chapter) and this will put a big strain on Remus' and James' relationship, maybe not right away but in the long run it will be responsible for a bunch of things.

Slinkimalinki: Thank you so much. (I was going to write up another idea until I checked the reviews this morning and decided to give you guy a little more today) I hope you like this part. I'm surprised anyone reviewed it and I didn't get flamed. Well, without further ado I'm going to give you guys chapter 3, have to fill in the betweens. (

Losing an Unrequited Love

The sun streamed through the common room curtains and fell into James Potter's eyes; he had been awake for close to an hour but had yet to move from the spot. Lily had fallen asleep, her Transfiguration textbook (Transfiguration: A Guide From Matchboxes to Mythical Beasts by Belinda Borkins) lying across her chest, it slowly rose and fell while she breathed. Her hair fell onto her face and a quill was clutched in her right hand. As the light caught her hair it looked like a halo formed around her, she was an angel. He sighed; she was Remus' angel from Heaven, not his. Slowly he stood up, the cloak slipping to the floor with a swish.

If anyone was to see James now they would think he was just tired, exhausted from prank-playing, but it was much worse than that. No bruises were on his body, his hair still stuck up in the back and his smile could still make girls weak at the knees but his eyes weren't sparkling, they looked… dead wasn't the right word, neither was sad… they looked betrayed, the sparkle was gone and the chocolate brown had dulled. His heart was wounded, shattered into tiny pieces, like the sands in an hourglass. Reaching into his pocket he came across the Marauder's Map, and a small golden locket. It had been his mother's, before she has…died.

Looking at the golden heart he could almost see his mother's face reflected off the smooth planes of the locket. He remembered coming home that day and watching her pass. He had told Sirius he found them dead, but he hadn't. Sarah Potter hadn't been dead yet, Matthew Potter was but not Sarah. His mother had been holding on, waiting for him to come back, to say goodbye. Sarah had been a healer, which is more than a nurse. A healer was someone who cared for the worst possible cases, mostly those who had suffered a crucio curse or another Dark Art curse, those holding on while the fates held their life strings, about to cut. (Think Hercules, the Disney movie) It had made her stronger, strong enough to hold on for a little while.

When James had come through the fireplace it was a normal scene. The house was spotless, floors shinning and the chandelier glistening and then, in the hallway he came across Sugar, one of the house elves. She was dead; her saucer eyes open, not taking a second look he had ran out to his mother's garden, his father's body laid by the patio but in bed of tulips, laid his mother. Her breath was ragged, coming in at sharp gasps and her eyes were closed. As he slid down next to her, those loving eyes opened and she smiled. "James, honey, I have to go but I'll," she coughed and took a moment to regain her composure "I'll always be with you, here take this. And remember me James. I love you." James had rocked her back and forth until she was gone, and then he had returned to the Lupin's. It had one taken a few moments but that was all it took to destroy his life.

When James was next to Lily he took the book off her chest, a small smile escaped him, it was his best subject and she was reading up on changing a match into a pin, she was hopeless at Transfiguration and he loved that about her. She could be the best in charms but when it came to Transfiguration she was hopeless. She always bit her lower lip in Transfiguration too, she did that was she thought really hard, and she played with one of her hair ties when she was nervous. Next he wiped the hair way from her face and then, as if it was the right thing to do he clasped the locket around her neck and kissed her softly on the nose. When she yawned, "Remus?" escaped her lips and James decided that he needed to go outside for a while. He couldn't stay there so picking up the cloak he left the room and went out for a walk around the lake. He always went there went he needed to think, or in this case mourn the unrequited love he had lost.
