Chapter Ten: The Confession

Why did I feel so guilty? I told the truth to Abbey, didn't I? So what if James overheard me, he knew we were strictly friends if anything. Or at least he should know. I've told him maybe, I don't know, my whole life.

All I knew is that I had a gut feeling I should apologize. But I don't know what I'm apologizing for, I have no other feelings for James. He's ONLY a friend. Well, at least that's what I keep telling myself.

After finishing my eggs and ignoring the secret smiles Abbey and Sirius kept sending each other I stood up to find James.

"Bye," Abbey waved to me as I walked out and immediately out of the corner of my eye I saw her and Sirius snuggle up together. How cute.

You know you want that to be you and James. A voice in the back of my head sounded and caught me completely off guard. I frowned in thought as I continued my search for the most-confusing guy alive.

Finally I found him, sitting out by the lake, alone.

"Hey." James said, not even turning around. I don't know how he knew I was there or if he even knew it was me. He could even be talking to himself, even though that's doubtful.

"Hi." I replied softly, seating myself down next to him.

"What are you doing?" He asked sharply and I looked at him, slanting an eyebow upward.

"Sitting, but I thought that would be a given." I said and he...I think he just glared at me. Nope, that is not a good sign. But what did I do?!

"Obviously not the answer you were looking for..." I noted as he rolled his eyes and looked away from me and out to the lake.

"Geez James, what's wrong?" I exploded after a minute or two of silence.

"Nothing is bloody wrong, Lily. Everything in my damn life is just peachy!" He retorted and I was momentarily taken-aback. I wasn't expecting him to have his emotional explosion with me around.

"I didn't mean it that way." I tried to apologize for whatever reason but he stopped me.

"No, Lily, you did mean it this way. You don't know what you did wrong so I'm going to tell you." James said forcefully and I watched him intently, wondering what the hell he was rambling about.

"You are the only thing wrong that I actually care about right now, Lily. You are the only person, besides YOUR parents, that I've talked to for the last two days or so. That astounds me, not just the fact that you haven't yelled at me once, but actually acted civilly towards me. To tell you the truth, I'm extremely surprised. I never thought Lily Evans, the girl I gave my heart to would actually care about me. So when we're at breakfast we spend moments of 'supposed' flirting together. Abbey and Sirius come by and then you happen to say, very loudly, I might add that you have no feelings towards me at all. Don't you think that would bother me, Lily. Considering the only thing I've done to you for the past five years or so is loved you?"

"James, I-" Wait. Did he just say he loved me?

Mwhahahaha...

I know, it's short. But lately I've been writing these late at night and I have school tomorrow so I'll write a longer one this weekend. Deal?!
