Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Harry Potter things in this story.

A/N: The chapters in this are short for a good reason, you will see when I get further along with this. Please rate this, it is my first story for Fan Fiction =)

James Potter wandered around the Hogwarts lake, bored. Life had become one big, confusing, endless puzzle to him this past year. It was his 7th year at Hogwarts, his last year at Hogwarts. He sighed, kicking at a twig laying on the ground in front of him. He would miss his friends here.... Most of all, he would miss Lily. He frowned, thinking once again about the problem he faced. Tomorrow was a dance, one of the few that came around. He wanted to ask Lily, but he was afraid to. More then anything, he was afraid of being rejected. Looking around, he saw Lily sitting off to one side, reading. If he could only go over there and talk to her! For a fleeting second, he thought he would, but then his fantasy faded away, and he walked on. Walked on past the girl of his dreams.
