"...They were arguing about some frivolous thing of no importance, the quick and clever banter between them never faltering as they matched each other word for word. It happened so quickly—if you compared their banter to a dance, this would have been the part where Lily would have thrown in an unknown step-- one that would have most certainly caused James to trip over his feet...He was caught off guard, at a loss for what to say, but god damn if he’d let her have the last word, so James had simply said the first thing that came to his mind..."
It's the summer before seventh year and someone's moving in next door to Lily's house. someone she'd never expect in a million years to move in. Major changes are in store for Lily Evans...she just doesn't know it yet. PLEASE READ AND REVIEW!
ONE-SHOT for the UR.org FicExchage: While there is some very subtle Lily/James hinted at, this focuses more on Andromeda and Sirius' relationship, had they remained close throughout childhood and after Sirius ran away from home... Doubting herself as a good mother for working too hard as a Healer and not spending enough time at home, Andromeda suffers a case of the Christmas blues. When Sirius realizes she's under the weather, he sets off to lift her spirits with a little help from the Marauders and Lily during Andromeda's Christmas shift at St. Mungos.
James is convinced. All he needs is six minutes. Six minutes with Lily Evans to show her that he really has changed. But if Lily will barely give him the time of day, how will he manage to get six minutes of her time? More than anything a series of events spanning 7 chapters to make a cute little LJ ficlet.
ONE-SHOT The funny thing about near death experiences is that they always make you contemplate just how quickly life can be snatched away from you-- they make you contemplate saying or doing things you normally wouldn't think to say or do. The driving force behind this? Simply that if you don't do it now, you may never get the chance.
To earn a bit of extra money during the school year, Lily takes up a part time job at the Hogwarts library, simple right? Now if only Lily could shake off her interest and slight obsession of finding out the identity of a certain mysterious boy who's reading Hemingway novels long enough to actually get some work done... L/J oneshot, slightly fluffy, rather amusing- hope you enjoy it!
A/U-- BUT ONLY SLIGHTLY! SO DON'T RUN OFF JUST YET! Lily thinks she’s got the entire world and everyone in it figured out while James is the son of a diplomat and while he has a rebellious streak, is quite afraid to go against his father’s wishes. From the moment they meet, when Lily transfers to Hogwarts during their 7th year, Lily and James are completely opposite but when an incident causes everyone including James’ father to believe they’re going out, will it bring the two closer together, or will they end up killing each other in the process? Everything will work out, James and Lily are convinced they’ve only got to keep up the charade for a couple of months , tops, but are they really just pretending? Or is it possible there could be something more?
ONE-SHOT: Fluff. Lots and lots of Lily/James fluff with a few autumn leaves mixed in. ((written for the Scrivenshaft Chalenge November Cycle over at www.unknowableroom.org))
It's always been easy to hate James in Lily's oppinion, and yet there's always been something subconciously captivating about him too. Then James needs help and Lily finds herself possibly caring for him for the first time. If she's never cared before, then why does she feel the need to save him now? Maybe James isn't the one who needs to be saved after all...rated M but so far, mostly for language. PLEASE READ & REVIEW!
