Lily Evans has hated James Potter ever since their first year at Hogwarts. It's not something that Lily ever expects to change. But outside the castle walls, a dark wizard is rising. No one is safe anymore. Lily is thrown into this fight, merely because she is a muggleborn. Even with her magical abilities, she is fighting to have a place in the magical world. Will she be alone in this fight, or will someone she never expected join her?

PLEASE NO NEW READERS TO THIS BOOK! IM REWRITING THE WHOLE THING - GO ON MY PROFILE AND READ 'Not Him' INSTEAD!!! IT HAS THE SAME PLOT!!! I WILL NOT BE FINISHING THIS VERSION!! James Potter knows he should give up - Lily Evans would never love him - but he can't. After accidentally hearing a heated argument between Lily and Marlene about him, he concludes that he definitely has no chance with Lily. That is until the war starts hitting too close for comfort and everything starts to change... Set in sixth year, continuing into seventh.

----UNDER EDITING---- The story of how Lily Evans and James Potter grew up to become the potters, parents of the boy who lived. This starts at the beginning of 7th year. Forgive anything I get wrong I don't know everything and I'm sure I'll make mistakes;) Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters you recognise or the general plot line but the stories I have written are all mine.

This is James and Lily's story from the marauders point of view. Some of James's will be in it too, just not Lily's. To see hers as well read my other story. 'The story of James and Lily'

These are some Jily One Shots from quite a few years ago (sorry for my bad grammar then). This was also written when I had a much smaller understanding of love and I want to clarify that some of these one shots do not demonstrate healthy relationships. No means no people! James' persistence is not loving, it is closer to stalking. So think before you romanticize! Art creds: I don't know who made this, if you know who did or if you did please contact me and I will give you credit!

Sirius Black/Marlene McKinnon Sirius and Marlene, they're meant for each other, all of their friends can see it but Black and McKinnon are too stubborn to realise it themselves.

7th year at hogwarts is approaching and emotions are running high. The year holds drama, heartbreaks, betrayal and mystery, and so knows what more? Being head girl and boy can cause some difficulties, but can Lily and James get around it?

I take her head in my hands, and do what I've been wanting to do for as long as I can remember- I press my lips to her. It's better than I could have ever dreamed it would be. Her lips are soft and mold perfectly to mine. The smell of vanilla is so overwhelming it's staggering, but I can't bring myself to care because it smells like Lily. I'm kissing Lily Evans. This a kind of sequel to my story Ephemeral. It's the same story just through James' point of view. (Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters, other than the ones I make up. All rights remain to J.K. Rowling.) *Also, language is worse in this book than my other one because the marauders had potty mouths.* Story through Lily's eyes: Ephemeral by Episkeyyy

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. If you know who created it, by all means let me know, and I will give credit where credit is due.* Story through James' point of view: Limerence by Episkeyyy Best awards: #1 in Jily #1 in Jamespotter #1 in Lilypotter
