Chapter One - James
"Look at her…" James whispered to Sirius. "Just look at her Padfoot… Isn't she wonderful?" James sighed, slopping mashed potatoes down his robes.
"Prongs, you alright?" Sirius asked, edging nearer Remus. "I reckon he has finally lost it…"
"He has hasn't he? I bet we could hex him and he wouldn't even notice." Remus muttered, shaking his head at James.
"Prongs?" Sirius waved his hand in front of James's face, but he was still staring at Lily dreamily. "James? James Potter? Snivellus is about to chuck Bubotuber Pus on your head!" Sirius looked at Remus dumbfounded, Remus and Peter shrugged, and carried on eating, Sirius followed suit.
"If you're not the one then why does my soul feel glad today?" James suddenly said, Sirius, Remus and Peter dropped their knifes and forks in shock.
"What did he just say?" Remus asked Sirius, then glancing at Peter who wore a quizzical expression.
"I never know what the future brings, but I know you are here with me now." James was now standing, his chest puffed out. He was singing! "We'll make it through and I hope you are the one I share my life with…" Lily had finally noticed what was going on, she dropped her goblet with a clunk, sending milk spreading all over the table. Sirius, Remus and James tried not to laugh.
"He has finally lost it."
"I don't want to run away, but I can't take it, I don't understand… If I'm not made for you then why does my heart tell me that I am? Is there any way that I can stay in your arms?" Lily now backed away from the Gryffindor table, with a horror struck look upon her sweet face. "If I don't need you then why am I crying on my bed?"
"Does he?" Remus snickered, holding his hands to his face.
"If I don't need you then why does your name resound in my head? If you're not for me then why does this distance maim my life? If you're not for me then why do I dream of you as my wife?" James now leaped onto the table, staring down at Lily, his hazel eyes still misty and wistful. Lily looked petrified, she seemed to be glued to the spot, her face livid with shock.
"I don't know why you're so far away but I know that this much is true." James continued to sing. "And I hope you are the one I share my life with!" He now knelt down on the table in front of Lily, a soppy smile on his face. "And I wish that you could be the one I die with!" Lily now shrieked, her eyes widening.
"JAMES POTTER! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU DOING?!" McGonagall shouted, marching up the aisle, James ignored her.
"And I pray in you're the one I build my home with. I hope I love you all my life!" James bellowed, he now looked up to the enchanted ceiling (azure blue sky, and blazing sun), holding the note for all it was worth.
"Bloody hell…" Sirius muttered, looking almost as thunderstruck as Lily.
"Cause I miss you, body and soul so strong that it takes my breath away! And I breathe you into my heart and pray for the strength to stand today! Cause I love you, whether it's wrong or right! And though I can't be with you tonight! And know my heart is by your side…" And holding on to the high note, he pulled out a red rose from nowhere and handed it to Lily. It was hard to tell who was more disgusted, McGonagall, or Lily.
"DETENTION POTTER!" Lily nodded in agreement, although her face was still wide-eyed and mangled with repulsion and shock. Sirius and Remus grabbed James by the shoulder and hurled him off the table. Lily now ran out of the Great Hall with her friend Davina.
James tried to run after her, but the Marauders gripped him tightly. "Lily?" James muttered, his hand held out in the direction of the doors. "Come back…"
"Erm, Prongs, I think you've ruined your chances." Sirius smiled grimly, still holding back tears of laughter.
"Why? What just happened?"
