At the rehearsal dinner there was music, but no one was dancing yet. Most people were sitting at their tables talking and laughing, "Come on." James said standing up and holding out his hand to mine.
I looked at him confused, but put my hand in his. Once I was standing up he swooped me onto the dance floor and began to twirl me. I just laughed and danced with him, it hit me that I was dancing with James Potter, the boy that every girl in our school had a crush on and the boy that for as long as I could remember I hated.
"L is for the way you look at me-" James sang along with the song into my ear and I couldn't help the smile grow wider onto my face. It was official, I was in love with James Potter and there was no going back. I had to tell him, but all the sudden it was like a movie. Fred, my ex-boyfriend who had dated me for a dare walked in.
Fred ran up to me and his familiar blonde hair was still as smooth as ever, "Lily," he sighed, "I was told, don't worry."
"Told what?" I asked him, I wanted it to come out bitter, but it was just confused.
"That you needed an actually good date, I was asked to come here and help you. I've missed you." He said coming closer to me.
I looked over at James and the hurt written all over his face killed me, James-" I reached for him, but he just walked away.
I began to walk after him but my mum stopped me, I didn't hear what she was saying to me. I just saw the hurt on James' face. The next day was a blur, I have no memory of my sister's wedding or the after party. That night I apparated to Hogwarts.
