A Dream Like This"James,"
"hmmmm."
"James, wake up."
James sighed and rolled over, almost falling of the couch. "I need to talk to you, okay?"
James opened his eyes, aware that Lily's voice was filled with worry.
"Whats up, honey?" James rubbed the sleep from his eyes.
"James, why are you still dating me."
The question came as a shock.
"You know the answer. I chased after you for six years, for Merlin's sake."
"I didn't ask why you loved me then, I ask why you love me now." Lily hugged her knees to her chest from her seat on the chair across from James. He knitted his eyebrows together.
"Because you're wonderful and fun and smart and I love being around you."
"How can you James? The last few weeks have been terrible-"
"Lily!"
"You can't say they haven't been, James. Look at us. We bicker and fight and never talk like we used to. I don't have fun with you anymore. The spark died, all right!"
James stood up and walked to Lily.
Leaning down he said, "Lily, you're the girl of my dreams. I love you."
