A/N: The only excuse for this very late and very short chapter
is that I've actually been following my New Years resolution! I meant to
say yes to more things, thus me being intensely busy and not able to
update as much as I'd like to :( But, here you go, this is a chapter.
It's a bit weird but I think I like it... Enjoy!

Chapter 5: In which you see both

I looked across at Lily Evans, my girlfriend. I smiled at the thought; basking in the happiness it brought me. Could I believe that this was really true? No, I didn't believe it for a second, but I was afraid to do anything to spoil the dream I was in just incase I woke up. Lily caught me grinning dreamily at her and laughed quietly, shaking her head.

*****

I was trying to stay focused, but I couldn't. My - dare I say it? – boyfriend, James Potter kept staring at me. He had a twinkle in his eye that never went away when he looked at me, the git. I looked up at him and the smile that was on his face was just so cute it made me laughed slightly. I didn't deserve his adoration! I had been horrible to him for the past six years of our life, but he kept it up. I guess she knew where he was coming from, finally having gotten the girl of his dreams.

I finally decided that I had done enough Transfiguration and got up from the desk, leaving my things where they were. I walked slowly over to James, looking at him as he looked back at me, completely stunned.

*****

Oh Merlin, she was coming over here! What am I going to do? Just act cool? Like you were never watching her? Yep, that's the plan. Okay, breath James, breathe. Merlin, she's a babe…

"Hey, James,"

"Hi, Lils." Look up perfection in the dictionary and her name will be there, I swear.

"Were you staring at me before?" Crap. No! No! No!

"Yes." Shit.

"Oh, ok. Can I sit with you?" Merlin, please!

"Sure thing, sweet cheeks."

"Sweet cheeks?" She laughed. Bad move, Potter, bad move.

"Just trying stuff out, you know," She laughed again, and she blushed a little bit. I love making her blush. It's like a sort of satisfaction seeing her blush because of me. Ha.

"Hmm, I don't think that works. Try again later, love." She said. Then she sat down on my lap. Yes, on my lap.

*****

"Hey, James,"

"Hi, Lils." His voice was husky, like he was trying to keep in all his emotions. Boy, am I glad I finally saw the light and said yes!

"Were you staring at me before?" I could see the wheels in his mind turning fast, thinking up a lie quick smart.

"Yes." Fail.

"Oh, ok. Can I sit with you?" His eyes sparkled.

"Sure thing, sweet cheeks." I blanched for a second before I realised what he had called me.

"Sweet cheeks?" I asked, laughing slightly.

"Just trying stuff out, you know," Thank Merlin he didn't realise what had happened. I laughed again, and felt myself blush. He grinned at my blush and leant back into his chair.

"Hmm, I don't think that works. Try again later, love." I replied, slipping in my own pet name. Then I sat down on his lap. I felt him tense up a little bit before relaxing. I leant back into him and turned my head around and placed my lips on his. I pulled away and smiled before turning to his essay that he had written and began to read over it.

*****

She was on my lap and then she kissed me. She initiated the kiss. The one kiss that was changed how I felt about her. Tender, soft and fucking sweet. I finally faced the facts. I loved her.


A/N: Yes? No? Love? Hate? Like? Meh?
Whatever it takes, flames or no flames, review!
Again, apologies! Hopefully the next one will be up soon.
I'll do call outs next chapter,

So long my pretties!
