"I have loved to the point of madness; that which is called madness, that which to me is the only sensible way to love."

-Francois Sagon

'James Potter, you are the biggest GIT I have ever known."

Normally, an outburst like this wouldn't be a surprise.

But then again, normally, Lily Evan and James Potter would be getting along as well as they had for the last few weeks.

James grimaced.

"Lily?"

Lily blew her bangs out of her face before storming over to him. The spark that he missed oh so much was back in her eyes. He had missed it. He hadn't seen it since the last time they'd fought.

"I just had a very interesting conversation with Sirius." James made a mental note to kill him. "Do you want to know what he told me?"

"I'm guessing you're gonna tell me anyway, Flower." James forced a fake smirk on his face. What had Sirius told her?

"He oh so gently informed me that for the last bloody months you hadn't shagged, snogged, or otherwise charmed a single girl."

James threw Lily his best insulted look. "Why, just last week I had a VERY nice time with-"

"Don't you dare lie to me Potter. Because you know what else he told me? He told me it was because he were still bloody in love with me,"

James wasn't expecting that. Now, Sirius really was in trouble. This wasn't funny, this could cost him Lily, or what little bit of her he still had.

Her rage was unmatched by all their previous feuds. "After you looked me straight in the face and told me you didn't, I hear from Sirius that this whole time you still loved me. Still!"

James cringed, "Lily!"

"No James, don't try to weasel your way out of this one. Do you know how many times I've cried over you last two months? Every. Damn. Night. Because only you could make me fall in love with you after I had you promise me you never would, never could, love me back again! ONLY YOU."

Pacing around the common room, Lily threw up her arms and sunk into a chair.

A slow smile stretched across James' face.

"I'm bloody mad to love you." Her tone this time was sad, if not dejected and hopeless.

James stood up, and walking towards the girl who finally, finally, realized that she loved him, dropped to her level as he grasped her head softly between his hands.

"It's the only true way to do it."
