Chapter 4

          A few weeks later James and I were still going strong, much to the envy of everybody. I could hear them whisper behind my back, every time we passed them in the corridors and such.

          The only ones who didn't care were the Gryffindors. Much used to both James and mine's weekly relationships, the few weeks in which we could be seen … snogging on the common room couch was a very peaceful oasis.

          It was on a night like that in which James held me, a night which I still re-call as if it were yesterday. The common room fire, the students heading out to bed, some saying 'good night' some rushing by as though not wanting to disturb us.

          'Lily …'

          I was pulled out of my reverie by the sound of his voice.

          'Yes?'

          'I love you!'

          The three little words rang in my ears and spun around in circles, echoing deep into my heart. Three words I'd said only once before and that I swore never to say again. But yet three words that symbolized everything I felt for James.

          But did I really love him? Or was I just very fond of him.

          I decided I would find an answer to that question later, as I kissed him.

          Late that night I was in my dorm, pondering.

          Three weeks. That was all that had passed. Were three weeks enough to fall in love? Looking back on those times now, I know I had fallen for him after three days not weeks.

          And James Potter loved me. Or so he stated. Burying my face in my pillow I yelled. Yelled in frustration. Because I couldn't say to him what I wanted to. Because I was too afraid to let him really in. because, maybe, I had no clue what love was.

          The next day I looked a mess. But he still thought me as beautiful as ever. He did that.

          And the weeks were moving and we were growing closer. Or so I thought.

          Because fate had a something else planned for James Potter and myself.

Author Notes:

This is based on true facts.  That's why the chapters are so vague and short. It'll get more interesting as time moves on and they develop.
