Determination

de·ter·mi·na·tion

n.

The decision reached. Firmness of purpose; resolve: approached the task with determination and energy.

Lily's best friends were Halley Bryson, Gryffindor, fifth year like her, and "Hogwarts Dictionary"
Her thoughts were on James Potter. Determined Not that she liked him. No, but it did make her smile sometimes. He liked her (or appeared to..) enough to do this. Routine…maybe it was a dare…maybe more…
Lily was startled out of her thoughts when the seat ahead of her in the library became occupied. When her head snapped up to see who had found out where she goes to relax, to be free, she saw the last person she wanted to.
And yet the person most haunting her thoughts…
James Potter sat in the seat in front of her.
"Hey Lily"
"Potter." Lily replied, then snapped the dictionary shut, stuck it back on the shelf, and turned to leave.
"Wow, Hey, I was going to try to talk to you here!" He had grabbed her hand to stop her from going…kinda awkward.
"I was hoping I could know what's wrong with me," James continued "Why wont you give me a chance? Even as friends.."
They were close….too close…
Lily took a deep breathe and stepped back. "Because you are a jerk, a stuck up rude jerk!" She gasped. Why didn't that sound as convincing as it should?
He made a move to step closer but Lily stepped back a step, back another, and back, and finally ran out of the library.
Leaving a dizzy James Potter to fall back in a chair.
