"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.

❝It's a lovely day outside, Potter, maybe you should go and enjoy it? ❞ ❝I was going to but then you came inside and it got a whole lot lovelier in here...❞ ▬▬▬▬ Lily Evans was always known for her ability to hold a grudge which she had held against James Potter after an unfortunate first encounter. Suddenly all those feelings of hate seem to be changing thanks to a damn, good jawline leaving Lily to figure out the tangled mess that is her feelings.

"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

Everything has changed since Marlene accepted her mission for the Order. The only problem? Nobody else knows what she's doing or where she is, and they are going to be furious with her when she finally resurfaces. But Marlene has bigger things to worry about; a new prophecy threatens to change the course of history, and she must unravel its mystery before it's too late. Her mission does not come without its risks; she has been warned that with curiosity comes great cost. Death, fear, and destruction continues to hang over both the wizarding and muggle communities, and the Order and Ministry of Magic must fight to maintain control as the Dark Lord rises to his full height of power. Alliances are questioned and friendships are crumbling as suspicions about a traitor in the midst begin to grow. But with the darkness around her comes strength and courage that Marlene has never known until now, and she finally discovers the true power of love. At last she has found her place in the world, and she will forever fight the darkness, or die trying. Highest rank: #2 Blackinnon 12.19.2020
Fate of Fangs, Claws, and Hearts | Marauders Fanfic / Part 1 by Lithil-RaVen
49 parts Ongoing Mature
This is the story of a monster. The story of a girl who doesn't know who or even what she is. A tale where two monsters fall in love and must overcome their darkest fears. But the wizarding world wouldn't be the wizarding world without a new and dangerous enemy rising to the challenge. This is also the story of a serpent determined to bring down the king of the beasts - and the lion is just as eager to strike back. They say opposites attract, but in this case, the saying "those who fight often love each other most" might be more accurate. Just be careful: it's wiser to keep such thoughts to yourself, or you may find their wrath directed at you. Interwoven with these tales is a third story. So obvious, it almost doesn't need mentioning. Yet James Potter would never forgive me if his Lily Evans weren't given a mention in this blurb. Step into an adventure that begins on a fateful full moon night. In this fanfiction, there's no room for boredom, and I promise you, at least one character will steal your heart. *** Pairings/POVs: Remus x OC (1) Sirius x OC (2) James x Lily #friendstolovers #enemiestolovers

"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.
