Lily Evans does not get giddy! Oh yes she does but why does it take Sirius-Bloody-Black to make her realise it. Lily overhears a very interesting conversation in the common room one evening and somehow her whole perspective is turned on it's head.
Warning:mild language

A challenge is set and Lily discovers that Sirius looks an awful lot like Cujo in the dead of night. Lily finds out something about James-he is the perfect hight to hide behind.

The morning after the night before- Lily finds out what the boys were up to and must help James cover up his mistakes before he is expelled or worse...dies!

On patrol James has Lily seeing stars- quite literally and the Fat Lady for one is not happy about it.

Lily gets James all to herself...

Then

"Lily and James stood a foot apart and simply looked at each other; the hubbub of fifty students faded into the background." The day of the match.

“Hey, don’t say you didn’t enjoy that.”

“Yeah, you’re right, I did.” said Lily making for her dorm room.

“You were just winding me up weren’t you?” Lily threw him a wink to which he shook his head. And it works every time!

James and Lily take a detour on the way back from the Quidditch Pitch.

Lily's life is balancing on a knife's edge- quite literally.

Severus finds that he's not even half up to the job of wooing Lily, James on the other hand...

Lily is finally starting to work out exactly what (or more precisely who) she wants...

Chocolate, girl talk and giggles ensue

Lily shows off her purchases and has the boys quite literally speachless. But what will happen whe James eventually does find his tongue?

The aftermath of "the kiss" and thr journey home for Christmas.

It's the first day of the Christmas holidays and James is already counting the hours until he sees Lily again.
