Again, Jk Rowling owns EVERYTHING there is about Harry Potter and the wonderful wizarding world. And I am insanely jealous of this tidbit.

livibug - Yeah, I was hoping no one would notice that. I tried it out my friends and they didn't notice...Sorry About the confusion. This chapter stays entirely in James' point of view, no changes on you there.

AshleyM15 - Thanks! That honestly makes me continue writing. Though I'm a little slow at it...

Secret Beginnings

"Did that seriously just happen? Did Lily Evans just kiss me, James Potter? Or am I dreaming? I mean usually my dreams with Lily are just a tad bit more….well…hands on." I muttered out loud to myself. Just mere seconds ago, Lily had disappeared up the Gryffindor Girls staircase, leaving me bewildered as to why on Earth she had kissed me. I knew we had become friends, which I was ecstatic about don't get me wrong, but I didn't know that she liked liked me. She even told me that she'd rather date the Giant Squid than me. Maybe the snog was a dream. Either that or I've gone completely bonkers.

I pinched my arm slightly. Nope, definitely not dreaming. That means it did happen. She snogged me! I can now die peacefully. My life is now complete. The most, beautiful girl ever to walk the planet snogged me! Score! It was all because of my rugged good looks, incredible charm, and amazing quidditch talent. I knew Sirius was barking mad when he said she'd never plant one on me. Wait…. Sirius! I've got to tell Padfoot immediately!

"PADFOOT!" I roared as I ran up the stairs. Taking them three at a time. I'd probably woken some second years, but I didn't care. Screw my head boy-ness. I needed to tell Padfoot, now. I'd finally reached the 7th year boys dormitory.

"Shit! Padfoot, you git, who else is daft enough to leave their broom in front of the bleeding door!" I said, after I had tripped over Sirius's Comet 260. I looked around the dormitory I shared with Moony, Padfoot, and Wormtail. It was the same circular room as it had always been. Sure, it had seen many decorations in the past 7 years. Every inch of space was covered with posters of half-naked, muggle women, motorbikes, and quidditch teams on the wall over Sirius's bed. Next to Padfoot's bed, was mine. Which had pictures of my favorite quidditch team, Puddlemere United, and a few stalker photos of Lily (don't judge…). I just couldn't help it; I loved seeing her smiling at me. Especially since I rarely got a smile from her. Remus's bed was next to mine. Over his bed, he'd bewitched a couple of shelves to stick to the stonewall. The shelves were full of books. I swear he's read every single one at least four times, and there are a lot of giant books. Next to Remus was Peter, who didn't have much over his bed. Only a few pictures of the Marauders.

I made my way to Sirius, who was sleeping in an odd angle in his bed, kicking dirty laundry out of my path.

"Oi, Sirius, get up." I said excitedly, poking Sirius in the stomach. I apparently angered the sleeping beast, because it took a swipe at me which I narrowly dodged.

"Go away, Sirius is sleeping." The beast muttered.

"But Sirius! Its important!" I whined.

"I don't care. Go annoy Remus."

"Fine. Lousy friend you are." I called over my shoulder as I walked over to where Remus was sleeping.

"Remus, Remus. Wake up. I've got brilliant news!" I said as I poked him repeatedly.

"James tell me tomorrow. Go to sleep." He answered before rolling on his side, facing away from me.

I pouted, taking a stance very similar to Lily's when she is pissed at me. Eventually, after standing there for a couple seconds, I retreated to my bed. Slowly taking off my robes, only keeping on my boxers, and slid into my four-poster bed. It didn't take long until I fell asleep.

I was racing down the Cliffside, the ocean crashing into the cliff down below, the only thought in my mind, besides 'Don't drive over the edge', was 'I need to save Lily'. The sound of the engine was roaring as I made the car go faster. Faster and Faster it went, until it went just to fast. I drove off the cliff, and instead of falling to my untimely death, I landed in the dungeons of Hogwarts.

"Well great!" I muttered to myself, "How in the name of Merlin's baggiest pants am I going to find Lily now? It's not as if she can save herself now is it!"

"Ah hem!" A female voice angrily cried out, the sound echoing through the dungeon.

"Yes? Lily?" Shit. Did not see that happening. Torches had appeared in the dungeon to reveal Lily squirming against two manacles holding her captive to the wall. Severus Snape looming at an uncomfortable distance.

"Well look here, Lily has found herself a Gryffindor in shinning armor." The grease-ball sneered.

"The name's Potter. James Potter." I flashed a smile. Best part of saving Lily. Absolutely.

"Expelliarmus!" A beam of red light shot out of my wand hitting Snivellus, knocking his wand out of his unsuspecting hand. His wand immediately flew from his hand only to land in the unlit part of the dungeon.

"Thought you would be more difficult Snivellus! Not going easy on me, are you?" I mocked in triumph. Snape only glared at me in reply before turning to the task of finding his wand.

"Reducto!" The mancles released Lily. She landed on the dusty, dungeon floor with a loud thump. I raced over to where she had fallen. We needed to leave before Snivellus found his wand, but I had a hinting suspicion that Lily would decide to go on one of her famous rants.

"You couldn't have used a cushioning charm? You're supposed to be saving me, not maiming me by dropping me on my arse!" Suspicion confirmed. She also muttered a couple colourful, choice words under her breath, but I didn't fully catch them.

"Come on Lily! We have to leave. You can yell at me till your hearts content after we have escaped. Key word, escaped! Now come on!" I said urgently. Her only reply was a quick glare, but she realized I was right and quickly got off her arse.

By now Snape was an arm's distance from his wand. We didn't have time for an over the top escape, so I grabbed Lily's hand and turned 180 degrees. I disapparated to the first location I could think of, the Shrieking Shack.

She was pouting. Her face screwed up in frustration, hip jutted out slightly to the side, it only meant one thing. My ears would be in pain for a while. However, instead of yelling, she charged at me. My hands flew to my face instinctively.

She's jumping! The bloody woman is jumping! Oh merlin… Her legs wrapped around my waist, tightly. Her face leaned down to mine, inches away from my own face. She sneered, then winked. Before I could register what the hell was happening, lips were moving against each other, hands were running through hair, and moans were erupting from our throats.

"Oi! Prongs! Stop snogging your bleeding pillow!" Barked Sirius. Wait…Sirius?

I opened my eyes. My lips were planting one on my pillow.

"Lily dream again?" Asked Remus.

"Yeah. How'd you know it was Lily?" I replied.

"You were snogging your pillow…..again." Asked Remus.

"Right…Well, I'm going to go…er…eat! See you guys..." I pulled on my robes and raced out of the dormitory, taking the stairs two at a time reaching the bottom stair and jumping the remaining step. When I looked up, with a look of pure satisfaction on my face, I saw a glimpse of Lily leaving through the portrait.

"Lily! Wait up!" I yelled while darting to the open portrait. She must of not heard me, (She probably did, but I chose not to think that way.) since she was already half-way down the corridor. I sighed. She was going in the direction of the library, and my stomach was making alarming noises, but talking to Lily is important (At least that's what I told my stomach…).

"Hey! Lily! Wait up! Would you? We need to talk." I bellowed. As I got closer to her, I could see that she had the alarming resemblance of a startled deer. Her eyes were darting around the room, as if she was trying to find a place to hide.

"So about last night…" I trailed off. How in the name of Merlin's baggiest pants am I going to insure that last night's activities happen again without looking like an ass.

"What do you mean? Nothing happened." Her eyes wouldn't meet mine. She just stared at a tapestry behind me.

"Nothing happened? Nothing happened my ass! You are not going to pretend that you planting one on me never happened. I…I won't let you!" Her eyes met mine at that last statement. You could almost see the steam coming out of her ears. Finally, a reaction from her.

"Won't let me? You think you can control me?" I shook my head. "Damn right! It will be a cold day in hell, Potter, when you control me!"

"So now I'm Potter again? Really? Well that's just great, Lily! I know you felt something last night, so don't try to deny it! Why can't you just try to like me?" Her head dropped, starring at the floor she mumbled something.

"Sorry. What was that?" I asked, a little annoyed. I thought at least she'd put up a fight a little bit longer.

"I…" She trailed off.

"Yes…Go on…"

"Idolikeyou,youidiot!" Oh Merlin. No idea what she said, but I know there was an insult in there somewhere.

"Er….what?"

"I do like you! You bloody idiot! Why else would I snog you? You really are as daft as you look!" One word. Women.

"Then go out with me, Lily."

"No."

"Why not?"

"I…uh…I…"

"You don't have a reason anymore! Why can't you just try it?"

"Fine…" YES! SCORE! "But…." Damn it! So close! "It has to be a secret…" I was considering it, when her eyes met mine. Eventually, it wouldn't be a secret and hell what's another secret to a Marauder?

"Alright" I said reaching out to hold her hand in mine. I had started walking when she said, "Wait? What are you doing?"

I looked back at her, "I'm secretly holding your hand on the way to breakfast. What are you doing?"

"No, James. I have to go to the Library!" She replied.

"Lily, you do realize that you will have classes today. Plenty of time to learn, no need for the Library!" I smiled at her, hoping she would forget about the Library.

"I have my essay for Flitwick to do."

"That's not due till next week!" I said exasperated.

"I know that, I just…want to get it done early…" She smiled and I sighed.

"Fine, just know that your secret boyfriend will be secretly waiting for you in the Great Hall." I smirked walking backwards in the direction of the Great Hall. She walked away with her back to me, until she reached the end of the Corridor. She looked back with a shadow of a smile spreading across her face.

Hey! Thanks for reading this Chapter. Hope you enjoyed it! If you're wondering why I keep changing points of view with each chapter, its because I think that everyone does Lily's point of view and I used wanted to change it up a little.

Sorry Its been a while since I last updated...I actually meant to update it earlier, I've just been so busy. I'm actually in Italy right now if anyone really cares. Again, I will try to write as often as I can, but I can't make any promises. Reviewing actually makes me write faster and more, so review if you'd like to read more. But really, reviews make this writer EXTREMELY happy.
