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!)
