JAMES POTTER HAD DONE THE IMPOSSIBLE. As the semester came to an end, it had become very apparent that James Potter and Lily Evans had grown to become fairly fond of each other. However, as the following months came, James was itching to ask a question. He asked millions of times and was always put down viciously.
Things had changed drastically. Lily Evans had kissed him on Valentine's Day and even though they hadn't spoken about it since, he had a strange feeling this was just the beginning of something amazing.
James went out of his way to intercept Lily during her prefect duties. He was trembling from his nerves, Merlin, he wanted her to say yes. The last thing James wanted was to be rejected and ruin his relationship with Lily.
"Oi, LilyPad!"James exclaimed as he had finally found the stunning redhead out monitoring the courtyard.
"James? What are you doing here?"Lily glanced around,"I thought you had Quidditch practice. The last game is tomorrow and I don't know about you, but I want the cup."
"I do, I do, but I needed to ask you something."
"Aren't you gonna be late?"
"I'm the captain, it's literally impossible for me to be late,"James assured with a cocky smile, adjusting his quidditch robes a little.
"Well, get on with it, Potter. What do you want?"Lily teased.
"So, this weekend is the last weekend for Hogsmeade..."
"I'm aware,"Lily raised a brow, tilting her head, waiting for what he really wanted to say.
"I was wondering if you would like to go..."James fumbled out, looking down at the ground before looking back at her. He was James fucking Potter! He had asked this question a million times with confidence."...with me, alone, just us."
"Are you really asking me on a date, again?" Lily questioned, crossing her arms with a frown.
"Yes?"James said in a confusing tone.
"I can't believe you...even have to ask,"Lily chuckled, uncrossing her arms as a smile crept onto her face,"I've been waiting you to ask me for months, James Potter, what in the world has taken you so long?"
James just stood there in complete and utter shock."I'd thought you'd say no!"
"I kissed you on Valentine's Day! You should have asked me out then!"
"I-you-but-"
"What? Spit it out,"Lily said with her hands on her hips.
