A\N: Totes stolen from Definitely, Maybe. Just warning you. I think Lily would sound similar to Summer…. Good, that is. R&R MY MINIONS! (NOT ONIONS, MELS!!)

James Potter ambled down the road with his girlfriend's hand in his. Who knew London, of all places, could be this wonderful at night?
Suddenly, a question popped into his head "Lily, before you knew you were a witch, what did you want to be? Like, job-wise?"
She looked at him oddly, so he continued his thought "Well, you didn't know about the Order, or any other wizarding jobs, what did you want to be?"
A look of understanding dawned on her face, and then was replaced by embarrassment. "Well, I…I always wanted to be a… uh… a singer"
A grin nearly cracked his face in two "Well, sing us something then."
"What?"
He sat down on a park bench "Anything. Sing me anything. I'd just like to hear your… expertise…" This would have been complimentary, had it not been said with a smirk.
Lily, never one to give up in the face of a challenge, looked up at the sky, fists clenched, as if for inspiration. When she finally looked down, she had a malevolent glint in her eye that scared James witless. That girl could really put the hurt on someone if she wanted!
She parted her thin, rose-tinted lips and started to sing (in a strong, sweet voice that one would not expect to hear from such a petite girl):
How glad the many millions
Of Timothy's and William's
Would be
To capture me
"Not very reassuring, Lils" he muttered. She nudged him so he would shut up, and continued:
But you had such persistence
James snorted. "You could call it that" Another nudge
You wore down my resistance
I fell
And it was swell
You're my big and brave
And handsome Romeo
"Ta much, Lils."He grinned. She groaned and sang on:
And how I won you,
I will never know.
It's not that you're attractive
She giggled at the way he grimaced.
But, oh, how my heart grew active
When you
Came into view
I've got a crush on you, sweetie pie,
All the day and nighttime, hear me sigh
I never had the least notion
That I could fall with so much emotion
Could you cluck?
Could you care?
For a cunning cottage we could share
The world can pardon my mush
Cause I, my baby, have got a crush
on you
James stood there for a moment, then his face broke into a huge smirk, and he threw his arm around Lily.
"Hey Lils, guess what?"
"What"
He twirled around in large circles up the street before warbling in a high, operatic voice "I've gott a cruuuush on youuuuu!"
