Good'ay,
Another Chapter up and running.
I hope you enjoy it coz I'm not sure how many there will be after this one. A couple perhaps?
Between my social life and this Crappy computer, I haven't been on much- sorry. But I spent the whole day typing this for you all. :-D
Disclaimer- I own nothing of Harry Potter (or any Potter for that matter). If I did then you would be reading this from a book and not a computer screen.
Summary- What would you do if the thing you needed most in the world was out of your reach, Stolen from you or even forbidden?
"James you are her teacher!"
Would you accept it? Or would you fight for it?
"I don't care I love her!"
Some of the worst case scenarios are between a man and a woman.
How can you give up all you dreams all your beliefs? I'm not worth that!"
To love some one so much, yet not be allowed to touch them.
"My dreams and beliefs changed the minute I met you. My world revolves around you."
This is a story of two people, two dreams and one love which can taint it all.
Thank you all for reading
Love

Finding out
The weeks to Follow Lily Evans and James potter were to be long and hard. Without each other they would have been unbearable. But theses weeks would mould the couples relationship into something stronger, something which in the long run would save the lives of everyone whom would be against them.
The couple, being with each other found it was the happiest they had ever been. Over the February break They took a short holiday to Dorchester, visiting stone henge on the way, then going to the sea side and to Lyme Regis. It had been so good to just be together and not having to hide their relationship from anyone. Just being a young couple in love. Spending time together which they had never spent before.
Lily felt crazy; she was just spinning round in circles. She felt so dizzily in love. Going round and round in circles yet every step of the way James followed keeping eye contact letting her know that however dizzy she was, he'd never let her fall, going with her to catch her and spin her again. Cupids arrow had hit the couple and as they say, you never know what love is until it hits.
However when the couple returned from holiday, February the fourteenth, (happy birthday bea!) things were more then likely going to change. James had gotten Sirius to set up the dinning room for a romantic dinner.
Things were going really well. The couple we having fun in eating together, Lily was noting how much better this dinner was to the one which Alex had set up for her. How much easier James was to talk to about everything. She could tell him anything and he would know what she meant.
The second which everything went wrong, was the second that Remus Lupin stepped through the door.
"Hey James, are you back? I thought that we could..." He paused upon the scene. Lily and James sitting opposite each other, both looking up shocked. "Prongs what's going on here?" Remus asked just as stunned as they were.
"Remus, what are you doing here? I can explain!" James said knowing he would most definitely be in trouble for this. Remus crossed his arms and James looked lost for words- he really couldn't explain.
"James you are her teacher!" Remus gasped.
"I don't care! I love her!"
"Remus." Lily spoke up softly. "You know better then all of us that some things just happen and they can't be helped. Sometimes they are good and other times they are bad. You see James and I hated each other. But we were spending so much time together by mistake, we were forced to get to know each other and we realised that we loved what we found. We couldn't help it, it just happened. Although we know it is bad that we shouldn't be in a relationship considering James being my professor, we feel this is a positive thing, as I know I have found the man I couldn't imagine being apart from." James nodded taking Lily's hand.
"Rem, I love her." Remus stood there uncomfortably; he knew what they were going to ask of him. They would make him choose between them and his job. It was hard enough to get a job as a werewolf; he wanted to keep this one. But James had sacrificed everything for Remus from time to time.
"I need some time to think about this." Remus sighed. He looked at his best mate, his hopeful face and Lily looking at James lovingly. Remus knew it was the real thing. But if they could survive their hardships they could survive anything.
That night Lily stayed at James' and they talked. It was seeming harder and harder to keep their relationship behind closed doors. They were discussing the possibility of being found out before they planned and they were unsure of what to do.
The next day Lily had decided that she needed to go and see Alex. She had never explained to her why she had left him and for the 2 weeks which it had been she had felt guilty for that.
"Do you have to go Lil, he'll get over it." James had whined.
"No I need to explain." And with a small kiss for James, she apperated to her ex boyfriend's front door.
The door opened and she stood face to face with Alex Bagnold. At first he looked stunned, not believing she was there.
"Oh Lily." He smiled pulling her in the front door and forcing her into a kiss. "I knew you'd come back to me." He said pulling away a bit. She took this opportunity to push him away.
"Alex what are you doing?" She sighed. He looked at her and in seeing the look in her eyes frowned.
"You haven't come back have you." He said his eyes watering. She shook her head sadly.
"I'm really sorry Alex." He looked down. "It's not that I don't think you are a wonderful person, it's just..."
"You're in love with Potter." Alex continued, stunning Lily.
"How did you know?" She questioned. He was the third person to find out ad possibly the most dangerous.
"I worked it out. How long were you seeing him whilst we were together?" Lily went to talk "And don't lie I know you were. I remember when he came round, his reaction to seeing us, your reaction when he left."
"I didn't mean it to happen. I didn't even like him when we met. We were just thrown together in a situation and you either come together or hate each others guts. It was like it was meant to be."
"How long?" Alex asked again.
"2 weeks."
"2 WEEKS?" Alex repeated. "I'm not sure if I should be grateful it wasn't longer or distraught that you chucked our year long relationship for a 2 week fling."
"It's not just a fling, its true love. I love him like... like..."
"Like I love you." Alex said sadly.
"I'm really sorry Alex. I love you, just not like I love him." She paused then looked up at him, her big emerald eyes glassy and embedding themselves into his own. "You won't go against us will you?" She asked nervously.
He gulped remembering what he and his mother had planned, and then he looked back into her gorgeous eyes. The ones he had fallen in love with. It hit him that he wanted to do anything to make her smile again. He loved her and if she was happier with someone else then he had to let her be. She would never love him like that, he just had to step aside and watch.
"I promise I won't do anything. If you are happier with Potter then there's nothing I can do about it." Lily's eyes lit up and she smiled widely, flinging her arms around Alex.
"Thank you so much." She said sweetly. "This means more to me then anything anyone has ever done." Alex smiled to himself knowing he'd done the right thing, and eventually he'd meet someone else.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING?" His mother had shouted at him. "SHE DUMPED YOU PUBICALLY AND MADEA MOCKERY OF OUR NAME AND YOU ARE JUST GOING TO LET HER GO GALLAVANTING AROUND WITH HER TEACHER?"
"Yes mother. I love her and if that is what makes her happy then I'm happy for her." Millicent Bagnold was not happy with her son's decision but there was nothing she could do about it.
The thing was she didn't need to do anything about it. That's what James' friends were for.
"What are you saying Rem?" James asked in disbelief.
"I'm just saying that if you transfer Lily to another class there is a lot less of a possibility of either of us getting fired and Lily getting expelled."
"Well, there isn't another class, I tried that when I hated her!" James exclaimed. "If we get caught I will make sure you never get any blame, Lily will not be expelled and I'm willing to risk my job, I can always go back to St Mungo's if need be."
"James think realistically."
"Well what do you think I should do?" James asked helplessly.
"I think you need to choose. Lily chose between you and Bagnold, you need to choose between your job and her."
"Can't I have both?" James asked.
"James, what has she wanted since she was a little girl?"
"To become a healer." James sighed.
"Yes, and you know as well as I do that not only will you be fired, but she will be expelled if anyone finds out." James bowed his head.
"So I should resign?" Remus nodded.
"You know what I think?" Sirius spoke out.
"No but I think we'll find out anyway." Peter muttered under his breath. James and Remus laughed.
"Seriously, I think that you and Lily, you're made for each other and the fact you're sacrificing your teaching for her is less of a fate then losing her. She's not going to be there much longer and maybe they will take you back on after." James smiled and put an arm round his best mate- always thinking on the same wavelength.
The next day James went to see the head.
"Sir, I need to talk to you." James stated when he entered.
"James, lad how are you." The head had always had a soft spot for this intelligent young man.
"Sir, I have a problem. And the only way I feel it can be resolved is if I hand in my resignation." The cup of coffee which had been in the elder mans hand dropped to the floor.
"Son, you can't resign. You're one of the best we've ever had, plus we're in the middle of a term."
"Sir if I didn't resign then I'd have to be fired. I'm in love with one of my students." James spat out all at once. His boss paled considerably.
"What... who... you can't... James I, I don't know what to say. How can this have happened?" The head said lost for words.
"I don't know how it happened. It just did. I can't take it back, I can't change my mind and even if I could I wouldn't want to. I'm the happiest I've ever been and it's because of her. Now, I won't tell you who because it is her dream to become a healer and I don't want her expelled. Instead I hand in my resignation."
"I'm sorry to hear that James. Maybe when your girl has left you can come back."
"That'd be great." James said standing. "Remus said that he would cover my lessons until you assign some one new." James left the office feeling as though a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He knew he had done the right thing.
Lily however was more then shocked when Remus stood at the front of her lesson.
"Miss Evans, you are late." He smiled at her.
"As always." She smiled back. "I'm sorry it won't happen again." A couple of people in the class chortled as Lily would have never said that to James.
The class went smoothly, Lily felt that she preferred James' teaching methods, but then maybe she was a little prejudiced?
She couldn't shake her worry for James the whole day. Why wasn't he here.
At the end of class she apperated straight to his house, to find him sitting down looking at the news paper pen in his hand.
"What are you doing?" Lily asked.
"I'm looking for a new job." He replied not at all startled that she had arrived.
"You weren't fired because of me?"
"No. I resigned. It was better then us both being kicked out."
"James how can you give up all you dreams all your beliefs? I'm not worth that!"
"Lily. My dreams and beliefs changed the minute I met you. My world revolves around you. So what I go from teaching healing, to working at a hospital- I'm still a healer and a much happier one at that because I have the woman I love by my side. In fact Lily, please would you consider moving in with me?" James smiled pleadingly.
"Of course I'll move in with you James." Lily smiled back throwing her arms around her new room mate's shoulders. "At least I won't keep losing my undies."
