"Don't you understand? He loves her." James said, throwing his hands up in frustration. 

Lily stopped walking, and he stopped a few steps ahead of her. 
"She knows." Lily said, her head bowed. "She knows that he loves her." 

He turned around to face her and she looked straight into his eyes, which held a melancholy kind of longing. She knew it was now or never. She couldn't lose him. Not now, not ever. She had promised to herself that she wouldn't let him go. 
"And she loves him too."

 

There were many reasons why James Potter and Lily Evans fell in love. And Harry was just one of those reasons. No, it was not their son Harry James Potter. It was just Harry. 

Ever wondered why James and Lily named their son Harry? Maybe, they too, like Harry, decided to name their child after someone. But who was this Harry they named their son after? Read on to find out.

"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?"

"I have a more personal question," she ignored his arrogance. Watching him had sparked a new interest that seemed to overpower any interest she had in their previous conversation. "Oh?" he seemed surprised but didn't allow it to affect his composure. "Go ahead then." "Why me?" "I beg your pardon?" Sirius seemed confused. Marlene felt embarrassed asking it but it wouldn't be the first time it had danced around in her head. Sirius was the type of guy that could have any girl he wanted. He was smart, funny, immeasurably handsome, and he bloody well knew it. Though he was bit egotistical at times, his hot headedness had seemed to settle down immensely from the boy she had known from fifth and sixth year. "Of all the girls you could have picked from, you chose me. I want to know why." Sirius was looking at her funny - it was not quite the reaction she had been expecting. "Of all the girls I could have picked from. What exactly is that supposed to mean? Isn't it obvious?" * It's Marlene's seventh year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and she has graduated from blundering student to emotional train wreck. She knew that seventh year was going to be challenging, but she never imagined that N.E.W.T.s would be the least of her worries. The pressure of suppressing her emotions begins to take its toll, and it's only a matter of time before she breaks. She knows that she must tell Sirius how she truly feels if they ever stand a chance. As she struggles to win Sirius back, dark forces continue to loom over Hogwarts. Suddenly, Marlene finds herself immersed in something unexpected; threatening everything she knows and loves. Relationships blossom, alliances are formed, and adventures continue as Marlene and her friends enjoy their last moments before the war. They must rely on one another to fight the darkness, and together she and Sirius may just have a fighting chance after all. Highest Rank: #1 Blackinnon 03.13.21
