All That I Want
A Lily and James fanfic by Moonelfgrl.
A/N: Well, it's been awhile since I posted anything, but I've been working on this on and off for months. Certainly took me long enough. Well, this is an l/j ff, and I certainly hope it's good after all the time it took me. Please r&r. I'm open to all questions, comments, and concerns, but I just want to let you know, the whole story is already written down so I'm not going to drastically change any chapters, but I might make minor changes. But I can always use suggestions. And just think, only one more month until the 6th book! I can't wait! Please read and hopefully enjoy!

All That I Want
Chapter 1: Unexpected Meetings
"I wanna stand up, I wanna let go
You know, you know - no you don't, you don't
I wanna shine on in the hearts of men
I want a meaning from the back of my broken hand
Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no
Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out "
The Killers, "All These Things That I've Done
"Look James, we have to ace this one. The Head of the Bureau is going to be watching us, and if we do good they might send us some new agents." James' boss said.
James had thought being an auror would be fun, not high-pressure, long days, and mountains of paperwork.
"Right, okay sir. I'll do my best to catch this guy, sir."
"Good, now back to your desk."
"Thank you sir."
As James returned to his desk, he looked over all the info he and his co-workers had already gathered. Someone kept throwing small curses at passerby. They had photos of the guy but what they needed was his next target….
Two Days Later
"Very good Mr. Potter. The Ministry is very proud of you." The Head of the Bureau then turned to James' boss. "Mr. Williams, I will be appointing a few new members to your team. They'll arrive tomorrow. They're transferring from Unit 6 at our building in Cambridge."
"Thank you very much sir." James' boss stammered.
"Very good. You both had better return to your work."
"Right, yes sir." They both said.
"Potter, hurry up! Straighten your tie and tuck in your shirt! The Chief will be here any minute with the new transfers." James' boss said.
James had never seen him in such a state. He was going around yelling at everyone to get ready, and he had stationed a lookout by the door for a whole ten-second's warning.
The lookout ran into the room.
"They're here sir!"
"Very good. Everyone, first impressions." His boss said.
James' desk was closest to the door, so he got a close look at the new arrivals. Just when he thought it was done, a green-eyed redhead walked briskly into the room. She stopped short at the sight of James.
"Ahh! Evans! What a surprise!" James said.
"Potter. You haven't changed much." Lily replied coldly.
"Same old Evans." James said, leaning back and crossing his arms.
"Yes. Same old. So no, I still wont date you." She shot back.
"Ohh, I'd hoped we were past all that! We're adults! We must be matue!" a grin spread over his face. A marauder's grin.
"Yes, so start acting mature." And with that she continued on to rejoin her group.
"Same old Evans." James said quietly to himself. And a slight smile spread over his face. An amazed smile.
A/N: So, that was chapter 1! I hope it wasn't too short, but some of the other chapters are pretty long I think….maybe. Well, I hope you like it so far, please r&r!
