DISCLAIMER: I don't own the characters. Only the plot, understand? Okies, well. I hope you like it! R/R!
Summary: Lily is in love with James, but James isn't too fond of her. He finds her annoying and obsessed. If he still thinks that way then why is he just noticing Lily has grown up since their first year, now, in their seventh. The question is, does she still feel the same way about him?
NOTE: I got really sick of a lovesick James and a hard Lily, melting with the site of James' brown eyes, so I decided to make a lovesick Lily and a hard James, who melts at the site of Lily's green eyes! Go me! R/R! PRE BOOK 5!!!!!!!!
"Lily!" James yelled, trying desperately to follow her brilliant, red hair, the next day.
He didn't care that they were both going to the same place, he wanted to walk to her now. Sirius had been right the day before; James was dazzled by Lily's beauty, but he wanted to get to know her.
Sure, he'd go for a good-looking girl before getting to know her any day. He was James Potter, after all; it wasn't all that hard for the amazing Quidditch Captain and Chaser to find a girlfriend. Yet, for some reason, he needed to get to know Lily. Maybe to see if she was still madly in love with him, or just simply obsessed and looking for revenge.
Lily heard James' last shout and she whirled around to find James running towards her. She stopped so he could catch up and smiled at the look on his face. His cheeks were flushed from running and his hair was slightly windblown, but he still looked just as handsome as always. "Yes, James?"
"How are you?" he asked, falling in step with her.
Lily looked taken aback. James swallowed, still trying to catch his breath. "What?"
"Shouldn't this be the other way around?"
"What do you mean?" he asked, confused.
He waved to the people he knew and his adoring fans as Lily looked on. She sighed. "Of the years I've known you, James Potter, you have never been the first one to come up and say hello. What is going on?"
James shrugged. "I just wanted to know how you're doing! Besides, we're Head Boy and Girl, we should begin to attempt to get along, right?"
Lily gazed at him, doubtfully, before glancing at the ground and shrugging. "Happy yet traumatized."
"Traumatized?"
Lily nodded. "Although, that may be a bad choice of words. Perhaps, the word I'm looking for is...overwhelmed."
"Ah, typical Lily. What's up?"
"Well, I dunno. I mean, we've only had one class and I already have three different assignments due at different point throughout the year."
"Wow, do we really?"
"I do."
James furrowed his brow. "Why just you?"
Lily smiled. "I'm not sure, I mean, we all have to do at least one of them, but the other two are just in case, you know, throughout the year, if we need extra credit, and I figured I'd do them."
"Why? You already have the highest grades in our year. You're a huge overachiever."
Lily grinned. "Why, thank you James. That's the first compliment you've ever paid me. Usually, you make snide remarks about my intelligence."
James grinned, sheepishly. "I'm sorry about that. I do have a reputation to upkeep."
Lily's grin faded. "It's all about pleasing the people, isn't it, James?"
"What?"
"You heard me. You never talked to me before this, so, tell me, why you're doing it now? Is it the fact that I look different and now I'm possible dating material, or that you're just trying to keep me obsessed with you?"
"Lily, I--"
Lily cut him off. "Well, I hate to break it to you, James, but I got over you this summer! I found someone else! Mind you, he does go to our school, as well."
James' jaw dropped. "Who?"
Lily's eyes glinted. "Why do you care?"
James looked frustrated and the frustration was heard in his voice. "Damn it, Lily, just tell me."
Lily looked angry. "No, James. I was going to, before you got loud with me. Now, you can forget it."
She strode down the corridor, leaving James by himself.
James watched her long red hair swish as she vanished through the large double doors to the Entrance Hall to get to Care of Magical Creatures and he groaned before slamming his fist against the wall.
"Smart, Potter, really smart," said a sarcastic female voice, behind his back.
James turned to see Sandra MacMillan, a seventh year Hufflepuff. Sandra, if possible, liked James even more then Lily. It was obvious that she wasn't very fond of Lily. The fact that Lily had better grades then Sandra and that she liked James as well didn't sit very well with her.
"How long have you been watching, Sandra?" James asked as she fell in step with him.
"Long enough to see you get shot down by Evans. Why do you even bother with her, James? You could do so much better."
"I'm sorry, but I don't like you, Sandra. Get over it." James sped up to get away from her and began walking with Sirius and Arbella, who were holding hands.
"You two are the talk of the school," James commented, observing them.
"Really?" Sirius asked, gripping Arbella's hand tighter.
James nodded. "I'd watch out if I were you, though, Arbella."
"Why?"
"You took everyone's favorite flirt. Girls are going to be after you and not stop until you're dead."
Arbella sighed. "Figures. What happened with you and Lily? She ran past us not too long ago."
It was James' turn to sigh. "I just dunno anymore."
A/N: Do you like it? Huh, huh, huh? Today was my last day of school. I am a High School Freshman! WOO! Now, I know I'm gonna get tormented but hey! Whatever! Anyway! R/R! Hope ya enjoy! Toodles!
