Can't Buy Me Love
Summary: Lily paid James for him to pretend to like her, to impress a boy. Well, James isn't pretending anymore, but how will she ever know with HIM in the way?

I Didn't Steal Your Boyfriend
"Lily wake up!" Molly said shaking Lily awake.
"What?" She rubbed her eyes.
"Come on, we have to go eat!" Alix said.
Lily sat up, "It's a Sunday."
Alix smiled, "It's Quittadge Sunday."
"Crap." Lily said jumping out of bed and rushed to the bathroom.
"Why the sudden rush?" Molly asked.
"I told James I would be there! I can't be late!" Lily said.
Alix raised her eyebrows,
"You told James huh?" Paige asked walking into the room in her uniform, broom in hand.
What cha been 'doin
What cha been 'doin
Whoa whoa
Haven't seen ya around
"Yeah last night." Lily said.
How ya been 'fellin?
How ya been 'fellin?
Whoa whoa
Don't you bring me down
Paige raised her eyebrows. "Last night? After your, 'therapy'?" She said.
All that shit about me
Being with him
Can't believe
All the lies that you told
Just to ease your own soul
But Im bigger than that
No you don't have my back
No no Ha
"Slut." Paige said.
Lily put her brush down. "What?" she asked.
Hey how long til the music drowns you out
Don't put words up in my mouth
I didn't steal your boyfriend
Hey how long til you face what's goen on?
Cause you really got it wrong
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"Boyfriend stealer."
Lily laughed, "I didn't steal your boyfriend. He's not yours."
"Watch it." Paige said, whispered something to the two girls and left.
Well I'm sorry
That he called me
And that I answered the telephone
Don't be worried
I'm not with him
And when I go out tonight
I'm coming home alone
"What's her problem?" Lily asked putting on her make-up.
Alix leaned against the doorframe, "So what exactly did you and James do yesterday?" She demanded.
Molly added, "And why were you in so late?" She asked.
Lily finished in the bathroom, "None of your business." She said and walked past them and into the wardrobe.
Just got back from my tour
I'm a mess girl for sure
All I want is some fun
Guess that I better run
Hollywood sucks you in
But it won't spit me out
Whoa Whoa
"Fine. Then we'll just make something up about you and put it out there." Alix threatened.
"If you haven't noticed girls, recently, people like me over you. So I doubt that you have the power to do that." Lily said and opened the door.
Hey how long til the music drowns you out
Don't put words up in my mouth
I didn't steal your boyfriend
Hey how long til you figure what's goen on?
Cauze you really got it wrong
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"Just admit it! You and James are together. You went after him even though you know Paige and him are on a break." Molly pressed.
Lily stopped and looked at her in the eye. "James and I aren't together and Paige and him aren't on a break either." and she walked out of the door.
Hey how long
Til you look at your own life
That I looked at it in mine
I didn't steal your boyfriend
Everyone in the common room stared at her when she walked down. "What?" she asked.
"Did you really steal James from Paige?" A girl asked.
"What?" Lily asked unbelievably.
"Paige was in tears down here complaining that you stole James away." She replied.
"No, James and Paige aren't together, and neither are James and I. Now go tell all your little friends." Lily said bitterly.
The little girl looked at her, "Bitch." she snarled and walked away.
Hey how long til you leave me alone
Cauze you got somewhere to go
I didn't steal your boyfriend
Lily walked down the halls and sighed. How did this get around this fast?
Whoa whoa whoa
"Morning." Lily said sitting down next to Remus and James, Sirius across from her. She looked who was coming in and found that it was Paige, Molly, Alix and some other girls. They gave her dirty looks and sat down on the other end of the table.
Please stop telling all your friends
Im getting sick of them
Always staring like I took him from you
"What's going on?" James asked.
Sirius stepped in, "Wiwly sfole oew froam faige." he said with his mouth full. Lily looked confused.
James' mouth dropped. Lily looked confused. "Translation: Lily stole you from Paige." Remus said. "I speak fluent Sirius." he said proudly.
"Why is she saying that?" James asked.
Hey how long til the music drowns you out
Don't put words up in my mouth
I didn't steal your boyfriend
Hey how long til you figure what's goen on?
Cauze you really got it wrong
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"Don't ask me. She came in this morning and said that I stole you from her, and then told everyone else." Lily said.
"I'm not even her's!" James yelled.
"That's what I said. But she called me a slut and left."
Sirius laughed, "That bitch." he said.
"Hey, be careful what you say about one of your teammates." Remus warned.
"Speaking of that, we have to go." Sirius said standing up.
"Come on Lily. Walk down with Remus and us." Sirius said offering his arm to her.
"Why?" Lily asked.
"Well, when Paige spread a rumor, it gets nasty. You might need some bodyguards."
"Bodyguards?" She asked taking Sirius' arm walking out next to James and Remus.
Hey how long
Til you look at your own life
That I looked at it in mine
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"Boyfriend stealer!" Molly yelled upon coming up to watch the match.
Lily sat with Remus and some others from Gryffindor. Lily rolled her eyes.
"Ignore them." Remus whispered to her. "It'll pass soon." he said.
"Really?" Lily asked.
He look at her and smiled, "No." he shook his head.
Lily stood up and started yelling as the Gryffindor team came out.
"FOR GRYFFINDOR WE HAVE CHASERS PAIGE SMITH, TOM ROSS AND RACHEL BROWN FOR BEATERS WE HAVE SIRIUS BLACK AND STEVEN KUCKLES KEEPER IS HAHN AND YOUR VERY OWN CAPTIN AND SEEKER, JAMES POTTER!"
"Go James! Go Sirius" Lily yelled along with Remus.
"Evans." Alix said in disgust as she was trying to get by to sit in the middle of the 'James Potter Fan Section' next to Remus.
Hey how long til you leave me alone
Don't you got somewhere to go?
I didn't steal your boyfriend
James flew over and stopped in front of them. "Hey Lils, Remus." He said pleasantly. He cleared his throat, "Molly, Alix, and you people with them." he said pointing to them. "You're not allowed in this section."
"Why?" Alix asked.
"Because this is my fan section, and only my friends are allowed to sit here." James said.
Whoa whoa whoa
Molly's mouth dropped open. "Is this because of her?" she asked pointing to Lily.
"No, it's because of her." James said pointing at Paige. "Well, see you around." he said and flew away.
"You heard the man, go." Remus barked.
Hey how long
Till you look at your own life
Insted of looking into mine
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"God, they're pathetic." Lily said.
"You said it." Remus said leaning against the post in front of him.
I didn't steal your boyfriend
"So what did James and you do yesterday exactly?" He asked looking at her.
Lily looked at him and laughed, "Remus Lupin, since when did you become so nosey?" She asked.
Remus looked at her and smiled, "Since my best friend has been the happiest I've ever seen him."
Whoa whoa whoa
