Attempt four

Lily stood in a group with all her friends, well almost all of them. Lisa had walked off with Sirus Black about half an hour ago, Lily didn't want to know what they were up to...

"Lily! Potter's, coming!" Ashley hissed, subtly pointing in James's dirrection. Lily braced herself for what James may have up his sleeve,

"Hello, ladies!" he said ruffling his hair at the back. Several of Lily's friends giggled, Okay, he's hot. But we all know beauty is skin deep, but attitude's to the bone! I'd wish he'd leave me alone and-

"Rebecca, I was wondering...Are you doing anything tonight?" James said looking through Lily. Lily tried to hide her surprise, while her friends didn't even try.

"M-Me?" Rebecca asked, touching her hair nervously.

"Yes, you. Gryffindor tower, eight thirty?" James replied.

"S-Sure!" Rebecca was in shock.

"Looking forward to it," James said with a wink as he turned to leave, "Lily," he nodded, acknowledging she was there, "How's it going?"

"U-Uh good..." Lily blushed as James walked away, No way in hell can I like Potter.


James smiled smugly to himself as he stood in front of the portrait of Sir Chesswallops, waiting for Rebecca. He made sure for her to meet him here, he knew Lily had to go past the portrait to get into Gryffindor and he knew for a fact she would just be coming back from her shower.

"Potter? Move, no one can get in if your standing there."

James spun around to see an impatiently Lily standing there with damp hair and tapping her foot.

"I'm waiting for Rebecca!"

"I know exactly what your doing, but why it has to be here, I'll never know. Nor do I want to..."

James stepped aside, letting Lily walk past,

"You know Lily, I'll always be here if you ever change your mind."

"It'll never happen James."


Over the next few days, James made his relationship with Rebecca so obvious that everyone in the school knew. James found it nessary to kiss Rebecca everytime Lily walked past. Finally at breakfast one morning Lily told James what she thought of him,

"James Potter! I know your plan and believe me, it's making you seem even more repulsive!"

James tried to look startled,

"Lily, what are you talking about?"

"Don't pretend like you don't know! Everytime I walk past, you have to plaster your lips to Rebecca's! You're just using Rebecca to make me jealous! But Potter, I'm not jealous of her, I only pity her!"

James blinked at Lily, as Rebecca gasped,

"Lily, that's-" Rebecca began when James interrupted,

"Lily, green doen't suit you..." James said calmly, as he reached for the large bowl of warm porridge, but Lily grabbed it before he could, "Lily, can I please have the porridge?" Yes! She's jealous! This is perfect! Lily continued to glare at him as she raised the porridge to James's head level,

"You wouldn't dare..." James said unsure.

"Wouldn't I?" Lily dumped the porridge on James's head. Everyone nearby began to laugh, Lily grinned a satisfied grin. James looked up at Lily with a smug smile,

"You so want me."

Lily blushed, looked shocked then walked quickly out of the hall, Rebecca jumped up and followed her.

Sirius laughed,

"Good come back Prongs. And she didn't deny it..."

"She didn't did she?" James laughed, feeling that for once his plan may have started to take effect. Now all he had to do was get this porridge out of his hair...
