"Will you marry me?"

At first it was just a joke- Sirius had dared him to ask the fiery redhead out on a date. At that time, James didn't like her at all. She hung out with Snivellus! Snivellus, the ugly, slimy, Slytherin. James had stretched the dare to make it even funnier.

The way she rejected him got him hooked.

"I wouldn't touch you with a fifty-meter long pole!"

The second time he asked her out, he was sure she would agree- she had heard Sirius daring him to ask her, and no girl wanted to be dated for a dare. This time, though, he was serious.

"Of course not! Over my dead body!" she shouted, sending him a Color-Changing charm that turned him green. Remus sighed, waving a wand over him and changing him back to normal.

"Moony?" he asked dreamily. "I think I'm in love with her."

The next time was only two weeks later; the Marauders pulled a massive prank on Hogwarts, turning the stairs into a bouncy material and planting mattresses all over the school. Painted on one wall James had written:

LILY I LOVE YOU

PLEASE GO OUT WITH ME

Red-faced and spitting with rage, the auburn-haired girl had shouted at him until she was hoarse, sending curses until he was black and blue- literally- with his legs bound together and him hanging upside down.

Suddenly Lily Evans became an extremely desirable young woman.

He was practically asking her out every day, excluding the holidays, and she would reject him. It was only in seventh year that his blessing came.

"Head Boy?" Sirius asked in disbelief. "How did you manage that, Prongs? You're not even a prefect!"

"I'm just talented," he preened, running his hand through his hair and smirking.

The compartment door opened. "Excuse me, is Remus here-?" a soprano tone voiced, and he turned simultaneously with his best friend to look at the speaker. Her eyes widened in surprise as she stared at him- no, at his Head Boy badge. "Potter? You're Head Boy?" She looked sickened at the thought.

"You'll be honored with my presence much more, now, Evans, aren't you glad?" he said arrogantly. She glared at him, before her looked softened to a appreciative glance. She flipped her long hair over her shoulder.

"Yes, I get to spend time with you, the most arrogant person to ever exist," she snarled, her face changing in a split second, and she turned on her heel, her Mary-Janes clacking as she made her way down the train corridor.

He finally wormed into her heart near the end of seventh year, and three months after graduation he proposed. His wedding day was the best of his life, and as he looked into bright green eyes, he smiled broadly.

"I do."

Lily and James have one of the cutest relationships I've ever heard of... =3= I really don't like hearing them with someone else. I feel like they were just made for each other. ^-^

I just realized I haven't done a disclaimer... Well, it's obvious anyways, but... I don't own Harry Potter or any characters used in it.
