This is like, um, when Lily finds herself falling heavily for James. Very heavily. Ouch! I would probably have died if that had happened to me.
When I'm in a crowd
Or on an island by myself
Silent or too loud
Wishing I was somewhere else
And I can't believe
You hit me fast and hard
When you turn to me and say
Never change the way you are
"Hey Lil's,-" James greeted a reading Lily.
"No." Lily said without looking up.
"Huh?" James asked surprised.
"I said No. Don't bug me anymore…" Lily snapped.
"But-but-but" James stuttered.
"But Nothing. I will not go on a date with you." Lily said, for the umpteenth time.
"Hey" said James breaking into a smile. "I'm not dull, I got the idea…" Lily looked up surprised. "I just wanted to say, I know, even if you don't love me, I would never ask you to change the way you are. You are perfect, just now, the way you are." James said before walking away. Lily looked at him with a new perspective…
Trying to catch your eye
Things will never look the same
Now I can't deny
You're the moth and I'm the flame
There I go again
I should walk before I run
How can I explain
I can't stop what you've begun
"Um, hey James!" Lily said to James, who was walking through the charms corridor.
"Hey Evans." Then he paused. "wowowowowowow! Back forward. Did you just call me James? Not Potter? ARGAAAHHHH! The world has gone insane! NOOOOOOOO!" James yelled before running in the opposite direction. He bumped into the Sirius. "She called me James…She called me James!" he said before walking into a wall.
I'm falling through the door
Flying 'cross the floor
When you look at me suddenly it's clear
Dear Dairy,
HEEEEELLLLLLPPPP! I'm falling for James! Please! I'm gonna die! Every now and then, I have, um, not normal dreams about Ja-Potter. He is so cute! I don't know why I haven't found out till now! ARG! Um, I think I need mental help…
A somewhat, scratch that very distressed Lily
You're burning up my dreams
Crazy as it seems
I don't wanna be anywhere but here
Anywhere but here
Lily reading a book…
JAMESJAMESJAMESJAMESJAMESJAMESJAMESJAMESJAMES…Mmmhmm, good book… ARGH!
What goes on inside
Is a mystery no doubt
A roller coaster ride
I may never work it out
Here's the brand new me
Skates around and floats on air
I'm a sight to see
Rainbow colors in my hair
"Lily" will you go to the dance with me?" asked Amos Diggory.
"Um, what dance?" Lily asked amused.
"I dunno." Said Amos still drooling. Actually, quite a lot of looks were going in her direction.
James, Sirius, Remus and Peter stared at Lily in the breakfast hall, as she strode in, with a confidence no one had seen before. James looked at her hair. It was black and streaked with brown. Her emerald eyes had gone a rich brown. "Lily, will you be my girlfriend?" came a voice from beside James. He turned to see Sirius drooling. James glared, and when he didn't notice, both he and Remus bonked him on the head. "Ouch! What?" Sirius demanded, and when he saw James' face, he gave a cry and ran for his life as James chased him all over the castle trying to kill him, well, at least hex him into the next year.
You have set me free
The one who gets me there
"You filthy little mudblood!" Lucius snarled at Lily who was pointing her wand at him.
"Oh, you mean this?" Lily said shrugging at her wand. She threw it aside and punched him in the nose and left him staggering. She turned around to see James, Sirius, Remus and Peter staring open-mouthed at her. She grinned. "What, didn't think I could do that did you, well magic may not be allowed in corridors, but I didn't hex him, did I?" She gave them a rare warm smile and walked away, leaving them still staring at her in awe.

"My dear child, I have never sensed much aura around you. Though young in age, your heart is old and shriveled like the pages of the books you crave and treasure so much. You are quite worthless for the noble art of Divination…"
Lily stood up, grabbed her books and stomped out of the room, leaving the class gaping. Alice screamed. James grinned, and Sirius boasted, "My first crush, I've always liked her, see how good my choices are." James turned around and glared. The class rolled its eyes. Just then, Professor Cassandra came over and tutted after glancing into his tea cup.
"You poor boy, your best friend is going to kill you, such bad fortune."
Sirius gulped and turned to James. If looks could kill, Sirius would have died a million times over. Then, James gave and evil grin and Sirius screamed like a girl and ran out of the classroom. James turned back to the front contented while Remus looked at James in awe. "You sure can be scary when you want to, can't you." James passed an amused look to Remus. "You really love her, don't you?" Lily who was sitting in the next class, somehow heard the answer.
"Yes, I do." (A/N: sorry folks, went a wee bit of track there, just, the idea popped into my head like that, and I couldn't resist)
Here is the place where
My head is spinning
Time is beginning
To race away
You come to throw me
Knock me off my feet
You give me wings to fly
The world goes crashing by again
Lily was working hard for the exams, the time was flying by. One hot afternoon, she was taking a break in the garden and drawing a picture. James, had sneaked into the girls dorm. He had already caused major havoc, but the girls, who wanted Lily and James to get together, were very helpful. He got into Lily's room and got her diary. He turned to the last entry and read:
Dear Dairy, He is just so cute! I mean, he is bringing out the fun bit in me. No one has ever been able to do that before. He- I can't believe I've never seen how good he is, I think, I'm really in love… My dream date----
James flushed and ripped out that page before he could read more and stuffed it into his pocket. His teeth clenched and he stomped out of the room. In the garden, he saw Lily and his natural curiosity over took his anger.
"What's that?"
"Nothing."
"Right…"
"If you must know, it's a picture…"
"Of?"
"My crush." Said Lily blushing profusely.
"Oh, that's right. Who is he anyway?"
"None of your business."
Just then, James saw a glimpse of the top of the paper. It looked like messy black hair. Ok, so lets rule out the people with messy black hair… Wait. That includes me! "Whopee!" James whooped and ran of, leaving behind a very startled Lily. 5 days later, it occurred to him to look on that piece of paper… (A/N: rolls eyes) However… that robe had been washed. (A/N: Ouch!) Through the muss of paper, he could make out the whole thing except the name. Only, it started with James…

"Um, you have a date for the valentines dance?"
"Waiting for this guy to ask."
"oh."
Later on…
"He asked yet?"
"Nope. Maybe it's not going to happen."
"Ok, then, um, Lily, would you go to the dance with me?" James asked blushing.
Lily nodded and James thought that she looked really happy… strange…(A/N: how thick!)

After the dance, Lily and James went for a walk. James cornered her in the garden and put his hands around Lily's waist. Surprisingly she didn't object. He slowly moved closer to her. He could feel her breath on his lips and she felt his breath on hers. Slowly, James placed his mouth over hers. She felt his soft warm lips caress hers, teasing, leaving her begging for more. He lifted him lips for a breath and her hand which had crept up onto his shoulder and pulled him back. James was sorta surprised, but he didn't care. He tried to put his tongue in her mouth, and she didn't resist. His grip on her waist had tightened. They broke off gasping. They looked at each other, and knew that they didn't have to explain.
They wouldn't be anywhere but there.
