-1OK, so a while ago, I had a really great idea (at least I like it) for a two or three part fanfic. However, when I posted it before I got a grand total of 00000 reviews. So I re wrote it now, about a year later maybe? I don't remember…maybe longer. But anyway, basically the only thing that's the same are the characters since I wasn't all that happy with the old story. I hope you like it and don't forget to review!
"Potter!" Sixteen year old Lily Evans cried, hurrying out to the Quidditch Pitch, scanning the skies for the bane of her existence, James Potter. He grinned and swooped down on his Comet 300, just low enough to scare her.
"You called Evans?" He asked, hovering just in front of her.
"You. Are. SO. Dead." She glowered holding up her Potions notebook.
"Is there a problem then?" He asked, leaning forward on the broom and raising an eyebrow.
"Yes! First off…I told you that you couldn't copy my notes and you took it anyway. And if that's not bad enough…you completely destroyed it!" She said raising her voice.
"Stop overreacting Evans…it's not destroyed." He laughed.
"You've maimed it's pages!" She shouted holding the book out to a random page. In the margins of every page he had written. 'I 3 James' 'James Potter is the best' 'JP+LE' 'Mrs. James Potter' and other such things. He laughed.
"Well, well, well Evans…infatuated much?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"You did it! You know you did!" She exclaimed.
"Now why would I write those wonderful things about myself?" He asked
"Because you're a big headed arrogant prat! That's why!" She said throwing the book at him and causing him to topple off his broom.
"Hey! Alright, so what if I did do it? There's no reason to get so mad." James laughed standing up. Lily drew herself up to her full height, but he still towered over her. He ran a hand through his unruly black hair and grinned.
"I'm just so sick of this! When are you going to just give up?" She demanded.
"When you agree to go out with me." He said simply.
"Get it through your thick skull Potter! I will NEVER go out with you!" She scoffed.
"That's what you say now." He shrugged.
"It's what I've been saying for ages. You just can't accept the fact that a girl actually turned you down. That's the only damn reason! So stop telling me it's because you like me. Because you don't. You just like the chase. Well guess what? I'd hate to break it to you, but you're not going to get it." She huffed taking a step closer to him in an attempt to look more intimidating. He just grinned down at her.
"You're so cute when you're mad at me." He told her, twirling a piece of red hair around his finger. She slapped his hand away.
"That's my hair." She snapped. "And I'll thank you to keep your hands to yourself!" She exclaimed.
"Fiesty today aren't we Evans." He smirked. She narrowed her eyes.
"Just keep your bloody hands off me and my stuff!" She exclaimed. "Are we clear?"
"Crystal." He told her. "But just one thing…"
"Potter if you ask me out one more time I'll--" She was cut off by his lips on hers. Her mind went blank, and what she had been about to say didn't matter anymore, neither did the fact that she loathed James Potter with a passion. Just then, her only thought was how nice his lips felt on hers. His arms wrapped around her waist to deepen the kiss and she let him, kissing him back in the same fashion all the while thinking 'What are you doing? That's James Potter! Get away from him this instant!…But it's so good…who would have thought?' Finally, however, she pulled away and slapped him across the cheek.
"Ow! What was that for?" He demanded.
"What do you think it was for!" She exclaimed. "You great prat! You can't go around just kissing whoever you want. Especially people who don't want to be anywhere near you, let alone have your disgusting lips on theirs!" She huffed. He just smiled.
"You enjoyed it." He told her, running a hand through his hair again.
"I did not! It was the most repulsive thing I've ever experienced!" She scoffed.
"Then why did you kiss me back. You could have easily pulled away, Evans." He shrugged. "You liked it and you know it." Lily rolled her eyes.
"You're impossible." She told him turning away and starting back for the castle.
"You're in denial." He returned with a smirk at her retreating figure.
Lily didn't tell anyone about the kiss she shared with James, not even her two best friends Rose Windsor and Jasmine Marietti. Though James told Sirius and Remus as soon as he entered the dorm they shared not too minutes later.
"Evans…yell…me…kiss…" He panted.
"What?" Peter asked sitting up in his bed.
"He's saying that he and Evans were arguing again over what he did to her notebook and he kissed her." Sirius explained. "Honestly, how much more obvious can it be?"
"But that's not the best part!" James exclaimed flopping back on his own bed. "She kissed me back…"
"So she agreed to go out with you?" Remus asked incredulously.
"Not quite…she slapped me actually. But it was a slap of love." He nodded surely.
"If you say so Prongs." Remus shrugged going back to his book.
"But she kissed me back!" He protested.
"Yeah, well, maybe you're just a good kisser." Sirius shrugged. "That doesn't necessarily means she likes you. Just your snogging skills."
"Oh…" James said, looking down.
"Don't look so upset Prongsie. I mean, you snog her every now and then and suffer a slap. It's not the worst consequence."
"But I don't want and occasional snog, Padfoot! I want…oh I don't know." He muttered.
"Well, I suggest you figure it out. It's not exactly fair to Lily is it? I mean have you honestly chased her for the past three years just for some sporadic snogging?"
"No! Of course not! I'll just have to try harder." James said simply. "In fact…I'll find her now. Where is she?" He asked. Sirius looked down at the map and wrinkled his forehead.
"Actually, she's right down stairs." He told him. After pulling at his shirt and running a hand through his hair he walked down the stairs, trying as hard as he could to stay calm. He saw her sitting by the fire and reading.
"Oh good, there you are." She said, looking up at him and bookmarking her page. He laughed.
"I don't think I've ever actually heard those words in that order come out of your mouth." He remarked, sitting in the chair next to her.
"Well…don't get used to it. Look. I just wanted to tell you…or ask you rather…can you not tell anyone about what happened?" She asked, discreetly chewing the inside of her lip.
"Why not? Not embarrassed are you Evans?" He asked raising an eyebrow.
"No! And it's just…better this way. Ok?" She said seriously.
"And if I say no?" He asked. Lily's eyes flashed dangerously.
"You won't. See, I don't want people pointing to me and saying 'Hey look, that's the girl James Potter snogged.' After that people start treating me differently. And I really like things the way they are now." She told him.
"So it was a snog." He said grinning.
"Yes, and a highly un-enjoyable one at that." She said indignantly. He just smirked.
"Fine. I won't tell anyone if you don't want me too." He shrugged. She looked at him unsurely.
"…Really?" She asked.
"Yeah…I mean I already told Sirius, Remus and Peter. But they won't tell anyone. But can I ask a question?" He asked.
"Uh…ok, as long as it doesn't start with 'Will you go' and end with 'Out with me'." She shrugged.
"If you didn't like it so much, why did you kiss me back? Honestly?" He said running a hand through his hair.
"Simple." She said, thrusting her chin out at him in pride. "You got what you wanted. Now you can leave me alone and still have had your snogging session and brag about it to Sirius." She shrugged. He laughed.
"You're making that up as you go along." James told her amusedly.
"I am not!" She protested. "I have to go pack." She said standing up.
"You know Lily…I didn't just want a snog." He said quietly. "Honest I didn't…I don't." Lily blinked at him.
"I need to go." She said hurrying up the stairs to her dorm.
AHAHA…I love my Lily and James so much, yes I do! I know this chapter was a little short…but starting with chapter three they'll get much longer I'm sure. But if you ever want me to GET that far, you should press that neato little button down in that corner that says review!
