A/N- Here is another chapter, this time it's in first person and James is speaking, I already wrote ahead two more chapters and things get heavy so I uped the rating to R.
I got myself a beta! Yey! Now things will be a lot more readble, so I want to thank my lovely beta, Allie!
Anything in italics are thoughts, even though it's James speaking I put thoughts.
I want to thank the people who reviewed:

Chapter 4: The ball- part one
"Hey! I haven't dated that many girls!" I insisted, but Sirius and Remus' attention was drawn to an unknown source behind me. I turned around and there she was! All I could say to myself was bloody hell. Lily was dressed in a beautiful strapless gray dress. The bodice was a silvery gray. The skirt was free flowing and was a dark grayish green color. Across her chest in a diagonal stripe were a dozen or so dark purple, black and gray flowers. Her beautiful red hair, in delicate waves, was draped around her shoulders giving her an angelic look. I was then snapped back into reality by Sirius kicking me in the shins. Talk about ruining the moment. (AN: For a picture of the dress, its called Parisian garden, Click Here, or copy paste this URL: ). I smiled my award-winning smile that usually melted girls, but she didn't seem too affected by it. But no matter, she smiled back at me and I noticed for the first time in seven years that she had a small dimple on her right cheek. It was very cute and only added to her appeal, giving her that innocent look. Her big green eyes, one of her best features, except for her great body, were dancing happily. It was amazing, I could stare at those eyes forever, she looked perfect and I had to tell her.
"Why Ms. Evans, you look absolutely beautiful!" I said and gave her another dazzling smile. She blushed. 'Yes! I'm getting somewhere' I thought.
"Thank you Mr. Potter, you're looking quite handsome yourself." she replied, what could I say? It was too true and I knew it. I was devastatingly good looking and girls wanted me, it was no big secret. (A/N- aren't we feeling full of ourselves).
""Shall we?"" I asked as I offered her my hand. She took it and smiled. God I love that smile!
'We shall.' she said and we headed towards the great hall, Sirius and Remus were gone. Funny I didn't notice them go (A/N- *cough* James was too preoccupied with a certain redhead *cough*).
When we arrived the hall was already full and music was playing. I saw Remus and Sirius dancing with their dates and Peter, the poor chap, was sitting next to his date. She seemed more interested in talking to her friend then Peter.
I also noticed quite a few guys glancing our direction, 'Well bugger them, she's here with me!' (A/N- Lame use of British I know, I do try!) I could already imagine what they were thinking, 'Potter, that lucky bastard…' I smiled smugly at their jealous looks.
"Would you like to dance?" I asked Lily and looked down at her, she smiled brightly and nodded.
"Sure." she said as I led her to the dance floor. It just so happened that a slow song began to play, 'Fuck! I am a lucky bastard!' I thought as she wrapped her arms around my neck and I wrapped my arms around her waist. I could feel her body pressed against mine and my mind was already making up fantasies. She rested her head on my chest, she was the perfect height for me. She was just the way I like them, tall enough to kiss and short enough to rest my chin on the top of her head.
And that's exactly what I did. Her hair was so soft against my chin, I had to run my hand threw it and so I did. I was never one to hold back, I did what I wanted and I got what I wanted, I learned that from my father.
I inhaled and smelled her scent,. It was jasmine and raspberry, a strange combination but I liked it, it was absolutely intoxicating. I was beginning to feel dizzy (A/N- James doesn't seem to dislike anything about her, does he?).
We danced for a couple of more songs, one was fast and the rest were slow, I sure didn't have any complaints.
"I'm going to get a drink, alright?" she asked me. What could I say? That it wasn't alright? That I wanted to keep dancing with her, feeling her, smelling her…
"Yeah sure." I said. She gave me a sweet smile and disappeared. I decided to go talk to Peter for a while. He was still sitting there, bored out of his wit, but as I turned around to go a girl I didn't even know stepped in front of me
"Dance with me." she said seductively in my ear and who was I to say no, I gave her one of my smiles and she immediately melted. She was ready to sleep with me right there and then, she got closer moving seductively. I smiled to myself, the Potter charm never seems to fail, my eyes left her shagable (A/N- Is that even a word? Well if not, I just said it is!) body and scanned the hall, then I saw them.
Lily was by the refreshment table and beside her was Chris Robinson, the Ravenclaw team captain. He was obviously flirting with her, she wasn't cooperative and was trying to shake him off of her but it infuriated me all the same, 'How dare he hit on my date?' I left abruptly and could hear the girl's confused shout.
"Hey!" but I didn't care. I practically ran to Lily and when I neared them I slowed down and approached casually. I ignored Chris and put my arm around Lily' shoulder nonchalantly.
"What's taking so long?" I asked and I could see the surprised look on Chris' face from the corner of my eye.
"Oh, I was just talking with Chris." she said smiling pleasantly, I turned my head to Chris and faked surprise.
"Hey Chris, you're enjoying the dance?" I asked.
"Yes, very much" he answered still a bit shocked.
"Well that's good, if you excuse us, I want to dance with my date." I said and directed Lily to the dance floor.
"You shouldn't have been so rude." Lily told me
"Quidditch rivalry" I replied shortly, she smiled knowingly at me and I gave her a questioning look.
"You're sure it wasn't jealousy?" she teased still smiling. I was about to jump and shout 'Hell no!' since I was the least jealous person on the world. I never had anything or anyone to be jealous about. (A/N- That'll change in future chapters *evil laugh*) I always got the girls and never minded my ex-girlfriends dating other guys, not even my friends, but I stopped myself before I said that and I thought about it. Girls love it when guys are jealous, it means they care.
"Maybe." I lied.
"Well you shouldn't be." was her replay.
"I can't help it, you are the most beautiful girl here! Every guy would jump at the opportunity to steal you from me!" I said. She was taken aback; I could see it in her face. We were supposed to be here as friends but I was hitting on her. For a second I thought 'that's it' but then, to my delight, she blushed and looked even more beautiful.
"Thank you, I needed that." she said and kissed me on the cheek. Her lips were so soft and I couldn't take it anymore. She was the hottest girl I had ever gone out with and I haven't even kissed her (A/N- I know that they are on a first date and only as friends but this is James, for him it's usual to kiss on the first date and even more).
When she stepped back I grabbed her arms gently and slowly pulled her closer.
"I want to kiss you." I said huskily into her, she waited a second and then she answered…
A/N- I said I hate cliffhangers but you leave me no choice, review and find out if she'll yell at him, slap him, box him or kiss him!To the FF.net readers: Come on people, I get more reviews on HP.com and there the font is all screwed up.
I know Lily seems different from how I described her in the last chapter. It's just that James is speaking here and he doesn't know her very well. Notice he only mentions her looks and very little about the real her.
I'm sorry this is so short, as I said I already wrote more but I need to type it in (I wrote it in my notebook) and I have a cramp. You'll get another chapter real soon, I'm on holiday, I have time to write and most importantly I'm in the mood to write.
WARNING: Things will get hot 'n heavy in the next two chapters, well it got heavy here too but that's because it's James' dirty little mind.
Please REVIEW, it will only take a second, just write: good/ bad/ I love it/ I hate it/ you're a genius LOL, anything!!!
