Chapter 7

Lily stepped inside and looked around in amazement. The scent of roses was in the air, though none were in sight. Candles were enchanted to float around the room with their flames flickering brightly providing a romantic atmosphere. Then Lily spotted the small round table in the middle of the room sitting on a lush Persian rug. She slowly moved closer to it curiously. There was another slip of parchment lying on the table. Lily picked t up. It read…

Ready for your final surprise? Open the box in front of you. Congratulations on reaching the end!

Lily looked up from the note and saw a wooden chest in front of her. She started to feel a little nervous and excited. Lily flipped the latch with trembling fingers and pushed the lid open and was then rendered speechless. Inside was a solid chocolate heart roughly the size of a quaffle with the words "I Love You Lily, Will You Be My Valentine?" in frosting that flashed different colors. There was one last note lying on top of the chocolate. Lily reached inside and took it out.

Your secret admirer who is no longer secret,

James Potter

Lily dropped the note with a gasp. It fluttered silently to the floor.

"Disappointed Lily?"

Lily whirled around just in time to see James Potter step from the shadows. She gaped at him in shock her eyes meeting his stormy hazel one's. Her heart leapt wildly. For some reason, she was happy that it was James who was her secret admirer. Wait, what am I saying? " You-you how dare you do that!" Lily screamed at him.

"Do what?" James asked confused. "What did I do?"

"Every time I look at you" Lily said her voice trembling slightly, "I feel my stomach turn over and my heart rate increase. Just STOP whatever you're doing!"

A small smile appeared on James' face. "Lily darling, that's called love." That made Lily stop her hysterical rant and stare at him. (When did James get so wise? ) "Love? What do you know about love?" Lily scoffed.

Now it was James' turn to scoff. "Your asking me that? Lily, how could I not know what love is when I've only been in love with you for lets see, a year and a half?

"'Cause you haven't been in love with me. You only see me as a challenge" Lily replied stubbornly.

James sighed. "Lily…I know that you despise my very existence but at least hear me out." Lily stayed silent so James took that as his cue to continue. " I love you, hell I love everything about you; the way you talk, laugh, bit your lip when your nervous." James began to smile softly to himself and get that faraway look in his eyes. " Your gorgus fiery red hair, the way your beautiful emerald eyes sparkle when your happy and dance wildly with hidden flames when your mad. How you would rather sit by the fire and read a book on the weekend instead of primping in front of a mirror. Lily Evans I love you and if you don't believe me there's nothing else I could do to convince you."

Lily was watching him in awe during his whole speech pleasantly surprised on how much emotion was in his words and how much he knew about her. At his last statement her eyes snapped up to his face and what Lily saw shocked her to the core. They always said that the eyes were the windows to the soul. James' eyes clearly reflected his feelings then. His soft hazel depths were warm and bursting with love…for her. Lily felt the happiness flow through her veins. James Potter loved her!

"So Lily, do you or do you not like me?" James asked. "If not I will gladly leave you alone for the rest of the year."

Lily looked him squarely in the eye. "I don't like you" she said clearly.

She watched as his eyes lowered and he turned away. Then Lily went up to James and hugged him from behind. "Because I love you" she whispered in his ear.

James spun in surprise and was met with Lily's bright emerald eyes shinning with happiness. "I love you" he said and then leaned down and kissed her pouring all his love from his heart into it. When they finally broke apart, Lily said the four words that she had once swore that she would never say to James Potter. "I love you to."

3 months later

"What are you thinking about Lily?" James asked her pushing the hair out of her face.

"About how you and chocolate are so alike" Lily replied snuggling closer to him on the couch.

"Oh really?" James asked interested. "How so?"

"Well" said Lily deep in thought. "Both of you are definitely bad for my health."

"Hey!" James said appalled. "That's not very nice!"

"Well let me finish!" Lily said with a grin.

"But your both utterly irresistible" she said sealing the statement with a kiss.

"Now that I won't argue with" James said cheekily. Then he seemed to remember something. "Hey Lily?"

"Hmmmm?"

"Do you remember that day when we were stuck in the room of requirement?" James asked.

"Yeah…" Lily replied.

"And how you were trying to steal my chocolate?"

"You weren't sharing!" Lily protested.

"Well anyway, you could have just asked the room of requirement for a bar of chocolate you know."

Lily sat up gaping at him. "And you tell me this NOW!!! You made me go through all that when I could have just asked for a bar of chocolate?!"

James smirked. "It was amusing."

"James Potter I am going to KILL you!" Lily shrieked jumping off the couch and running after James who was trying to escape her wrath.

He was smiling to himself as Lily chased him around the common room with their friends watching in amusement. While jumping over the couch James thought and this is how life should be.

FIN

A/N: I am sooooooooooo sorry for the long wait! I had the chapter written for at least a month but I was too lazy to type it up. I feel so bad now! Well, I started a new Lily/James story called Despising James Potter. That counts for something right? I hope everyone had a good holiday and new year! REVIEW!
