CRAVE

"You could always shag me. I heard that's always been a successful tactic." James Potter suggested as he followed Lily Evans around their Head Girl and Head Boy dormitories. Lily shook her head, closing her book as she trotted ahead of him. She turned her head to catch his expression. The classic Potter smirk gleamed at her. Lily sighed - continuing her way to the book case.

"Shag you? Why on earth would I want to do that?" Lily scoffed, halting in front of the large book case. James' stride lead him to right side of the literature, his eyes glued to the red head.

"It's not a question of want - more like why not?"

"Right." Lily curt, placing her book in the empty slot.

"C'mon, Evans. You can't deny it." James said, finally standing in front of her.

"Deny what exactly?" Lily met his eyes while looking unimpressed.

"You want me. I've seen you look at me."

"With disgust?"

James swung his head back in exaggeration. "Baby, I love it when you talk dirty to me." He mocked a shiver as he sang those words.

"Get out of my face, Potter, unless you're fine with it melting off."

"Just admit it. You wouldn't mind shagging me. I think you've even dreamt of it." Lily snorts before the end of his rambling. James leans in, his smirk growing.

"Didn't hear a no." He soothed.

"I thought my laughing spoke for itself." Lily said, avoiding his eyes once more. She skimmed passed James Potter, making her way to the unoccupied couch. James blocked her path. She nearly bumped into his chest. Lily purses her lips this time. All humour evaporated in an instant.

"Let's make a deal." He offered.

"If it's about fucking you - "

"Evans, you swore!" James pulled back in surprise. Lily placed a hand on her hip, waiting for him to explain.

"…And?"

"You actually said fuck, referencing sex." James murmured, almost mystified by her. Lily rolled her eyes, trying to move away from him.

"Ground breaking…" She mused sarcastically. "You know, you find the most unnecessary things amazing." Lily said with a raise and drop of her shoulders. James' brows furrowed.

"Explains my attraction to you perfectly." He mumbled under his breath, loud enough for Lily to pick up.

"Good night, Potter." Lily said simply as she plopped herself down on the couch. Her eyes focused to the ceiling, reflecting her boredom of the conversation.

"Wait! You didn't hear the terms of the agreement." James said quickly, joining her on the couch. Lily scuttled farther away.

"Go on, I don't have all night." Lily said, having a bit more patience than usual with the infamous Potter.

"Okay. Fuck me." James deadpanned. "Fuck me and I'll leave you alone for the rest of the term." Lily retched at his offer.

"What do you think I am? A prostitute?" She screeched, again, scooting to the other side of the couch. James only mirrored her movements.

"Think about it, Evans. How long have I been hounding you for?"

"Four years." Lily answered wearily.

"Exactly - four years. Four years of embarrassing moments, four years of blokes being too scared to go after you, four years of aggravation."

"I'm aware of what you've done to my social life… Another reason why I hate you. Another reason why I would never, ever -"

"So fuck me." James said as if this was an obvious solution. Lily looked positively green at how comfortable he was with his speech.

"Fuck you because you've been trying to get me for four years?"

"No. Fuck me to get it over with. Fuck me to spare yourself another term of me. You could have a normal semester - no Potter to bother you, stop guys from hitting on you, scaring off Snape."

"I don't mind the 'Scaring off Snape' part." Lily admitted quietly. There was a small look of surprise in James' expression but he returned to normal. Lily wouldn't even look for his reaction.

"Fine, I'll still tell him to leave you be." James decided, feeling slightly happy. Lily nodded until she came back to reality. She smacked his gut.

"Are you crazy? I'm never going to fuck you, Potter." Lily shouted.

"Why not? It would be an hour out of your term for five months of freedom." James explained. Lily tried not to laugh again. An hour? More like five minutes. James waited eagerly for a response. Lily looked back at him, feeling extremely uncomfortable that he was dead serious. Potter always mucked about with announcing his attraction and desire but he always made it obvious he wasn't serious in front of everyone else. Now, they sat alone and he was not letting the subject die.

"I'm a virgin." Lily confessed, disregarding any humility. James was taken back once more. The information seized him and held him silent as she continued. "I'm not just going to hand it over to you just because I would like a stress free term." There was a pause - mostly because James had not been paying attention to her last few words. He was more caught up with the fact she was virgin and overthrown with relief and satisfaction. Lily took his silence as a form of teasing. She could feel her chest squeeze with shame. Lily drew herself from her seat, trying to hide her blushing face. He's going to tell everyone that I'm a virgin. Lily sighed, attempting to relax. She crossed her arms over her chest. She thought changing the subject would help the situation.

"Why would you want to shag me, anyway?" Lily asked gently. This got a hold of James' attention.

"Is that a joke?"

"No." Lily replied as fast as she could. "I get you're a horny teenager but what makes me so desirable? You could try for any other girl. I'm sure you could find someone more experienced. You've fucked loads of girls in the past. Why me? What's the prize in boning ol' Evans?" Lily remarked, giving a good impersonation of Sirius in her last question.

"I have not fucked loads of girls." James snapped.

"You're avoiding the question." Lily turned to face him.

"It's a stupid question." He muttered as he stood up, towering her petite frame. "You're bleeding gorgeous, Evans." He gave a beguiling smile to her. It struck her. In that one smile, it held boundless admiration. His hazel eyes swept over her. Lily met his eyes once before she ducked his field of vision.

"I've seen plenty girls and none of them even come close to you." He said, a small laugh finishing his sentence. Lily took laugh in the wrong context. She went from awestruck to bitter in a nanosecond.

"So, I'm different. That's it?" She quipped, finding his eyes loving eyes with loathing ones.

"You're funny - I don't know a lot of truly funny girls. You can actually make me laugh - in-between the times you're not trying to get me into detention."

"Different and funny." She said, acting bored. Lily was keen on hearing more but refused to appear interested.

"You got a good head on your shoulders. There's just.. something about you I can't explain. You look at people and while other girls judge, you try to find the nicest thing about them. You could be looking at Lord Voldemort and still try to find something decent about him."

"And that makes you want to have sex with me?" Lily came out with that question in a blunt manner. James looked confused.

"No, it makes me fall for you." He said clearly. Lily's mouth snapped shut. Her chest was beginning to feel tight again.

"I figured that it was something different because I don't have a clue about what love is - but if I could venture a guess - it would come close to this." He said in all honesty. Lily couldn't utter a word. She waiting for a punchline. James took que from her silence to go on. "Maybe I thought if we shagged, I'd know what it really was." There was a long pause between them. Lily felt clammy all over. He was serious and she couldn't wrap her head around it. A tint of red glistened off his cheeks. It had hit him now that he confessed his feelings for Lily Evans in such a random scenario. He didn't prepare for it - it all came out unexpectedly. Lily cleared her throat.

"Insightful, Potter. I highly doubt you've fallen for me, though."

"Oh, yeah. Why's that?" James asked, sounding purely skeptical.

"You just find me interesting because I'm not attracted to you. You're interested in me because I say no." Lily explained. James released a sheepish smile.

"I thought that, too. Believe me, I've racked my brain with this."

"It's not that hard to understand." Lily uttered, sounding irritated.

"So, shag me." He commanded. Her shoulders raised quickly at such an order.

"Have you been listening to a word I've said?" She squeaked like a mouse.

"It makes sense, though. I'll prove the theory wrong." James said, determined in his ways. Lily quirked an eyebrow. James took a step forward closer to her. Lily craned her neck to stare back at him.

"What if you didn't say no? What if you said yes? What if we fucked?" He sounded so sincere about something so dirty. Lily rolled her eyes, taking a few steps back.

"What if, what if, what if?" She repeated over and over, closing her eyes and walking to her door that lead to her dorm. James chased afterward.

"What do you have to lose, Evans?" He shouted after her.

"My dignity, my virginity, my self-respect." Lily began to list on one hand.

"You would also have much to gain." He said, oozing with confidence. Lily scoffed, spinning to face him.

"STD's?" She retaliated. James paused, smile fading.

"What's that?" He tilted his head like a lost pup. Lily's smile dropped as well.

"You don't know what STD's are?" She was shocked. James shrugged his shoulders.

"Never heard of them. Is this a muggle thing?" He asked boyishly. Lily opened her mouth to taunt his lack of knowledge until she pondered the thought.

"Erm, possibly… I'm not exactly sure how sex works.. magically speaking."

"Don't worry, Evans." He said, smirking again. He reclined his entire body weight against the frame of her door. "I'll teach you the ropes." Lily retracted, giving him one more disapproving frown.

"Get over yourself, Potter." She said, grasping the door knob, twisting it and moving to slam it close until James' grip halted the action.

"Offer is always on the table, Evans." His eyes penetrating into hers. Lily raised her eyebrows before dropping them back into a neutral position.

"Yeah, I'll be sure to keep it in mind, Potter." She said, nodding. The mockery of her tone stung but James was more than amused. He released the door and bid her good night.
