He looks up, and those hazel eyes pierce mine. I don't look away because the seriousness in his gaze holds me there. "Lily, I love you." *I do NOT own any of these characters. (Except for the ones I make up) All rights remain to J.K. Rowling. I am just a huge potterhead. Also, some things are based off headcanons, not trying to steal ideas just using headcanons fellow potterheads.

When someone knows at first glance that the person now holding their gaze is special, there are a lot of moments that can unfold. Laughter and love, arguments or hatred - but maybe not for too long. Over the span of ten years, there were many moments shared between Lily Evans and James Potter, and there will never be enough time nor words to fully express the love that bloomed between them, the fights that occurred and the promises made. However, I will let you glimpse them - but that is all. For now, a peek is all that you will receive; after that...the rest is up to you. A short love story about James and Lily, because who can't help but admire a love so strong, and wish there was more?

"I don't know what you're all upset about Lily," Marlene said carefully, "This whole dance was your idea. You did know that dances require dates, right? And you've turned down several boys ... I figured you had a plan or something ... " In response, Lily just moaned, and threw her face back down into the pillow, "I did." Marlene raised an eyebrow, "Well, what happened then?" Lily pulled herself up into a sitting position, clearly about to go into a serious rant. "This dance," she sighed, "was going to be my way to ... well... ugh it doesn't even matter Marlene, he asked someone else." "Who!?" Marlene demanded, unsure of what to think, but despite the indications that Lily longed to rant, the redhead didn't answer. "You designed this entire dance just to get one boy to ask you out?" Mary realized, raising an eyebrow at her friend, impressed by the girl's ambition... ~ Lily designed a whole school dance so the boy she likes can ask her out. When he instead asks another girl, she must use the marauders and her friend Marlene to create the ultimate prank on James and make him jealous in return. Can they really pull it off? ~ Ships: JamesxLily RemusxMary SiriusxMarlene (I would have loved to have done wolfstar but Sirius and Marlene was already written into it) 34k words so sort of slow burn (no smut sorry lol), but it happens over the span of 10 days so.. idk ~ Achievements so far (thank you!!): #1 in Blackinnon #1 in JamesxLily #1 in LilyxJames #3 in Jilyfanfiction #9 in Jily First seven chapters written by @starfishbeliever on fan fiction.net and the rest was completed by me :)o

In choosing not to attend Hogwarts, Lily was safe, or so she so naïvely thought. In reality she was merely in the eye of the abhorrent storm... After Lily Evans, the 'Muggleborn Phenomenon' spread throughout Britain like an epidemic, dragging down the wizarding population and leaving Muggleborns like Lily unprotected and vulnerable; waiting bait for Death Eaters known as 'Snatchers', to steal them away in the night under enigmatic circumstances, never to be seen again... James Potter knew this, of course (he knew perhaps too much for his own good) and so over the years he demised a plan, a plan to find Lily Evans before a Snatcher got there first and show her the beauty of wizarding world before it was too late... ~*~*~* ❝𝘕𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘭, 𝘓𝘪𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘭𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘥, 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘵.❞ ~*~*~ Cover made by @actuallyamarauder 1st place Potterhead Challenge (03/21) 1st place The Nyctophiles Fanfic Awards (05/09/21) #1 lames (19/07/21) #5 lilyandjames (15/11/21) #1 flowerpot (21/09/21) #2 wormtail (10/09/20)

Let me set the scene for you. Picture a massive and magical stage, a stage that is Hogwarts itself. Curtains are pulled back to reveal young witches and wizards in 1966 living and learning as normally as they possibly can in the times of war. Amongst them are our protagonists James Potter and Lily Evans. Whether or not the audience believes in true love does not matter, it's what these two grow to learn about one another that does. Romance isn't just reciting a script; it's going off-book and embracing your own character so that you are able to truly love the other. With some help from The Bard himself, James finds himself with something sweeter than a rose. (lol Actual Plot Description: James has a Muggle Studies project for his 6th year final term assignment and decides to perform Romeo and Juliet with some of his friends. Obviously this is a Jily thing and tis f l u f f ^-^ so I hope you enjoy reading this little short story as much as I did writing it!) || Most of the characters belong to J.K. Rowling, the Romeo and Juliet quotes belong to Shakespeare, and the story + cover art were created solely by me (so please don't steal!) ||

"𝐖𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮, 𝐠𝐮𝐲𝐬!" ☄. *. ⋆ Lily Evans: a romance novelist with a secret addiction to crime fiction. James Potter: a crime writer with a partiality for a good romance book. Perhaps destined to fall in love? If only they didn't write under pen names. And if only they hadn't known each other years ago. Life was simple back then, but perhaps seeing each other again will change their respective complicated outlooks on life and career. If not, it will surely make for a fantastic story! ☄. *. ⋆ "𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐨 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐞!" ☄. *. ⋆ A marauders au story by @abbilovegood & @WiseRavenclaw07 ☄. *. ⋆
