"James Potter, you are impossible." Lily mumbled to herself, levitating James' dirty socks from the common room to his dorm. He's always so messy. But I guess that's James. She thought.
Today was the day of the Quidditch match she would wear his scarf. His scarf. Lily's tummy did backflips when she thought of them together. And they were. And she couldn't have been happier.
"Ow!" She heard a grumble coming form James' dorm, as he stumbled down the stairs to greet her. "Why did I just get smacked in the face by a pair of flying socks?" He ran his hand through his hair, scruffing it up. Lily used to think this as an annoying habit he inherited, which then turned into one of the insanely adorable features she noticed about him.
"Oh sorry, you left them down here and-" she started, lowering her wand.
"It's okay, Lils. Cleaning?" he looked around the room, where Lily had piled stuff up everywhere. Books, clothes, parchment, all in neat piles around the room.
"Yeah. It was turning into a bit of a rubbish dump, if you ask me." She gestured to the now spotless rug that they were both standing on.
"Thanks." He said, smiling at her, still half asleep.
"I'm doing a clothes wash, us there anything you need doing?" She asked him, picking up some of the clothes from her neat pile.
"Yeah, my pyjamas need a wash, if you don't mind." He rubbed his eyes, clearing his vision do he was able to fully see her. "I'll just go and get changed." He smiled and ran back up to his dorm to get changed.
Lily shook her head laughing. That boy.
Minutes later a pair of pyjamas came flying down from James' dorm rapidly, landing on Lily's head. She pulled them off, blowing some of her hair out of her face.
"Gee thanks!" She shouted up to him sarcastically, smiling, she set out of their common room.
Sunday. Sunday was one of James favourite days of the week. It meant he could sit around and do nothing. Absolutely nothing. Whatever he wanted to do. Whatever pleased him. Sundays.

Lily strolled into the great hall for her breakfast, not surprised to see that James was already there. She pressed her mouth close to his ear and whispered 'you came down without me' he smiled and leaned upward and whispered back 'I was hungry' all she replied was 'you're always hungry' before sitting down next to him, grinning.
Whilst this was going on, Marlene twirled her fork in her fingers, munching on a rash of bacon. She nudged Sirius and nodded in the direction of James and Lily whispering to each other. Sirius took a glance before turning back and smiling at her. She smiled back.
Her smile. He thought. It was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen. No, it was not an exaggeration. He stopped his player ways for her. He put her first, he put her before everything. He had his mind set and was completely determined not to screw up the relationship he had with her. He wouldn't admit anything to anyone. Not even James. But there was a possible chance, only the slightest chance, that he loved her.

"You are dating James Potter, you are dating James Potter..." Marlene chanted, circling Lily in her old dorm.
"Stop it." Lily giggled, rolling her eyes at her best friend.
"You didn't deny it!" Marlene squealed.
"That's because I can't!" She flung herself onto Marlene's bed, trying to act all grumpy with her but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get rid of the huge smile that had plastered her face.
"You're dating James!" She repeated, knowing it annoyed Lily, and lead down next to her best friend on her bed.
"Yeah. Yeah, I am." Lily turned to face her on the bed, still failing to get rid of her smile.
"I was the first person to know, right?" Marlene asked.
"You were. Then it was Sirius and I don't think anyone else knows yet." Lily shrugged it off, people would find out soon enough. "Anyway, enough on me! What's happening with you and Sirius?" She shuffled around on the bed.
"Other than we have those fights that end in make out sessions, that's pretty much it." Marlene said, happy with her relationship, even though it wasn't perfect.
"What do you guys even fight about?" Lily smiled.
"Just random stuff." She twirled a stand of hair between her fingers.
"Just random stuff." Lily repeated what she said, but said it in a very obvious flirtatious tone and wiggled her eyebrows.
"Shove off." She smiled.
"You're practically the female version of him!" Lily exclaimed and jumped off the bed.
"Lily..." Marlene moaned at Lily daydreaming and twirling around the room.
"I'll leave you to your thoughts then." Lily smirked, closing the door behind her.
Marlene was so confused. I mean, he was literally the player of Hogwarts and suddenly he just stopped. Why? Surely it wasn't for her... what was so special about her? She was just a regular girl.
Little did she know, she was much more than a 'just a regular girl' to him.

"James! James! Look!" Lily squealed, pointing to the beautiful scenery outside.
"Yeah?" He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist from the back.
"Snow." She whispered, keeping her finger on the window.
The scene outside was beautiful. The snowflakes were landing gracefully and sticking to the ground, forming a perfect sheet of pure, white snow.
"Wow." James breathed, as Lily put her hands over his own.
She twirled herself round in his arms so that she was facing him. Wrapping her arms tightly around his neck, she pulled him into her and kissed him. She kissed him hard and long.
This was all he ever wanted. Just for them to have moments like this. That she would just unexpectedly kiss him out of nowhere, that she would smile every time she saw him, that she was happy being with him. And, just him guessing on her actions, she was happy. As was he.
Lily loved kissing James. The feeling of it, the amount of happiness it gave her, everything. She never thought she would, though. He was much better than any of her other boyfriends. She had always managed to pick out the wrong people, and got hurt in the process. But this, this was different... there was something... something about James that just seemed to... stick.
She couldn't love him yet...
Right?
They're two cute little dorks *fangirls*
