"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.

A Marauder's Guide to Falling Together
"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 03.13.21Complete

YOU are like ME | Marauders Fanfic / Part 1
!!! UPDATES EVERY few DAYS !!! ... This is the story of a monster. The story of a girl who does not know who she is, or who she is meant to be. A tale in which two monsters fall in love and learn to step beyond their own shadows. But the wizarding world would not be the wizarding world if a new and dangerous enemy did not appear. At the same time, this is the story of a snake trying to bring down the king of beasts, and of a lion planning to do exactly the same. They say opposites attract, but with these two, another saying fits far better: "There's a thin line between love and hate." Hidden among all these stories is a third. So obvious that it hardly needs to be mentioned. Yet James Potter would insist that his Lily Evans earns her place in this blurb. *** Multiple Pairings/POVs: Remus x OC (1) Sirius x OC (2) James x Lily Harry Potter/Marauders Era #friendstolovers #enemiestolovers
