At Hogwarts, James learned that he loved Lily, and Lily learned to love James. Their romance was cherished and celebrated by all, except one boy, who thought he lost a piece of himself every time Lily gave a part of herself away to James.

James Potter decided that this would be the last time he would ask Lily Evans to go out with him. And she said... Jily. One-shot.

Based on the movie You've Got Mail. Lily receives a rather odd letter, which leads to a correspondence, a friendship, and an unexpected case of butterflies in her stomach.

L/J and all the Marauders, of course.

James was the first to know. Lily was the last. This is a collection of moments in which it became clear that the two were in love.

[MODERN AU] [J/L] She wants to say something more, wants to ask if he ever thinks about their time together. She wants to ask if he's ever thought about calling her, or emailing her, or even just sending her a bloody message on Facebook.

Nothing could have saved the Hogwarts professors from what may have been the most boring staff meeting yet except for intell regarding their favourite students to gossip about. Oneshot.

After the 5th year at Hogwarts, Lily Evans notices the "arrogant toerag" James Potter has changed. While it should be a welcomed changed why are Lily's feelings towards him suddenly conflicted? She is supposed to hate him, isn't she? But hate is not supposed to feel this way, right? Too many questions cloud Lily's mind as they enter their 6th year at Hogwarts. (T rated to be safe!)

It's the beginning of the Marauders' seventh year and Hogwarts has created "Anonymous Owl Letters," or AOL, a program in which students are assigned to write letters to other students anonymously. The lines between acceptance and prejudice become blurry as James, Lily, and the rest of the Marauders try to differentiate who is a friend and who is a foe. Mainly Jily and Wolfstar.

Lily Evans doesn't believe in the idea of soul mates, she's too busy thinking about other things - like what animal her Patronus will look like in her upcoming Defence Against the Dark Arts class. But sometimes the universe just steps in to give you a sign. One shot. Cross posted on AO3.

Late at night, in a draughty castle, it would be quite easy to become lost in your own thoughts with your footsteps' echo. Lily enjoys falling into her mind, on occasion - and finds that James has been indulging in an occasional fall himself.

Potter had no right to be friends with her, yet somehow she was now blind to his arrogance and cruelty. Severus just couldn't understand it. That was when Severus realised that perhaps he had been wrong all along. Lily had never been his, because even when she claimed not to like Potter, she had never once looked at Severus the way she looked at him. One shot. Jily from Snape’s pov

Fluffy one-shot Pre Jily, But he's definitely getting somewhere. Maybe.

Lily and James are just trying to get some alone time... of course things don't always go to plan.

Lily and James oneshot from their seventh year. A quick, fluffy take on how they got together. Lily swallowed, feeling the burn of the firewhiskey all the way down her throat and into her stomach, sending warmth to her fingers and toes.

He stops to talk to her, and some things about her past and her future come to light, and he gets to see a side of the Head Girl that nobody's ever seen before.

Random and super short Jily drabble I felt like writing.

On Lily's birthday in sixth year, James Potter surprises her with a beautiful present.

A look at what Petunia, Snape, and Sirius were thinking when they saw Harry for the first time after his parents' deaths. Canon compliant, alternate perspective fic.

With Mad –Eye shouting constant vigilance in his head, there is not much penmanship a man can accomplish a.k.a. the letter Padfoot wrote to Evans whose reply Harry finds in Sirius' room

"We both know why you want to buy a house with four bedrooms." /For Magnolia :)

Just because her name was Lily didn't automatically mean they were her favorite flower. Unfortunately, giving her lilies was a mistake everyone made. Well everyone except the one person who left her roses everywhere. With every new guy she dated was a new opportunity to find this one person who knew her better than everyone else in the world. But finding him isn't that easy.

It's Lily's birthday. She would have been thirty nine today. Harry misses her, as he silently mourns his loss on his mother's birthday and receives comfort for another mother. I don't own Harry Potter

A late night conversation with Sirius in the Common Room leads to Lily coming to a few revelations. Part of the A Bond of Family series.

Lily Evans despises James Potter. The fact that he keeps trying to get her to go on a date with him just makes her hate him even more. There's only one problem.

When James asks another girl to the Halloween Masquerade, Lily ropes all of the marauders in on her plan to remind him why she's the one he really wants... even if it means making him jealous. Lily/James

Imagine that one person that irritates, infuriates, & insults their way under your skin to the point where each moment with him or her becomes a pop quiz in self-control. Now, imagine that you've woken up in that person's body. For Lily Evans & James Potter, learning to navigate this unfortunate and stressful new reality is truly a walk through hell.

A oneshot of Draco's thoughts after the Battle of Hogwarts explaining the nod between him and Harry in the epilogue a little more. He reflects over his actions and the course the war took, and thinks about what will happen in the future now that the war is over. His decision in these moments changes many things for him and his future descendents.

A late night encounter with a certain redheaded prefect opens the Marauders' eyes to a whole new side of Lily Evans. To James, it's just another reason to keep chasing after her, and to a group of Slytherins, it means a morning of embarrassment the next day. To Lily, it meant payback. Oneshot with Jily.

After Sirius gets injured and nearly caught while on an Order mission, Harry sends him a howler.

Now that James and Lily have been dating for a while, he and the other Marauders decide it's time to tell her about Remus being a werewolf, and about them being Animagi. However, Remus knows something they don't about the situation, and the conversation doesn't really go as expected. Oneshot with Jily and a tiny hint of Wolfstar.

Sirius wants to play, so he decides to bother some friends.

James and Lily have a fireside chat with some Firewhiskey and each other.

Harry never expected to be de-aged and sent to the past, but it was an occupational hazard with Luna there. Lily never expected to be interrupted mid-tirade by the appearance of a young boy, much less one who was her son from the future. Even more so when it was also the son of her arch-nemesis. And definitely not that it would change her opinion of James Potter forever. FOUR-SHOT.

James Potter. Mr. Immature, Mr. Gross, Mr. Pervert,… Mr. I-want-to-lick-melted-chocolate-off-your-Quidditch-toned-golden-six-pack-and-watch-you-moan-WHAT! No. No. No. This is why going to Quidditch games is bad for your soul. It makes you pervy.

What's your favorite hair color? What's your greatest fear? What's your favorite number? These may seem like simple questions, but simple questions don't always have simple answers. The Marauders begin posting polls on the notice board, and what starts off as an unimportant game for entertainment starts to bring two people closer together. Guess who?

Sirius gives Lily some advice. Sixth Year.

Lily Evans is planning on seeing the New Year in alone, then just getting through the rest of the year with as few problems as possible. Unfortunately for Lily Evans, very little in her life is that simple. Still, what difference can a year make? 1977 through the eyes of L & J. Cover art by Viria. All Harry Potter characters, places etc are the property of JK Rowling.

The thickest book on the shelf by her bed was about a beauty who fell for a beast, which Lily Evans thought was the most romantic thing in the world, and which Sirius Black thought was a load of crap.

Lily just doesn't understand why James is so annoyed with the sweet black dog they find in Hogsmeade. - 7th Year Jily Humor One-Shot - Cover by Batcii on Tumblr

James Potter's hazel eyes stared into her green ones and she could almost see them growing stonier by the second. He couldn't stand her anymore. LJ Oneshot.

One-shot for Valentine's Day. Lily and James get paired up in Potions and their assignment is to make Amortentia, the strongest love potion there is, the potion that smells like whatever it is that you desire. What will Lily and James smell when their potion is finished brewing?

A very pregnant Lily invites the Marauders round to help her entertain James. Somehow, this degenerates into 4 Jameses wandering around her living room, with her having to guess which is her actual husband or (horror of horrors) lose a bet against Sirius Black. For hpshipweeks.

[One-shot] The Potters leave Sirius to babysit Harry. Obviously, they can count on his responsible godfather. "Hypothetically speaking," Sirius grinned sheepishly. "What are the risks of human transfiguration on a baby?" ...Right?

When she gets to the Kitchens, she doesn't expect James Potter to be there. James drops the spoon he's holding. It clatters into the bowl of batter and disappears beneath the surface. A glob of it lands on his jumper. "No! No. Come in. I'm making cookies. For Sirius."

Even before they were a couple, they always seemed to spend Halloween together. Series of oneshots.

Sometimes it's the smallest moments that can cause the biggest changes. Five small moments are all it takes to make the biggest change of all. One shot, seventh year Lily and James. Cover art by anxiouspineapples.

"Let's not fight" had become their motto. Over seven years, the friendship between Severus Snape and Lily Evans crumbled beneath its facade, leaving him bitter and she happy.

There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other, and using four wands and a sack of flour to fight off a group of death eaters is one of them.

Because when all efforts at making the rounds schedule fail, what else is there to do but open a few Butterbeers and simply talk. It's here, in the Head's Office, that both Lily and James finally get what they need.

"You," said Sirius, in the manner of a policeman charging someone with murder, "fancy Prongs." There was a moment of silence. Lily did her best to assume a shocked expression, but it apparently did not work. "AHA!" Sirius shouted. "I KNEW IT!" James/Lily one-shot.

This story follows Lily Evans as she deals with the fallout with her best friend, Severus, the hurt she feels over her sister's attitude toward her, and the fact that she's falling in love with James Potter, the boy she was determined to hate for so long. Rated T for some language. Told from Lily's POV.

It's odd. She doesn't know when she started watching James Potter, but one thing Lily Evans is sure of - she can't stop now she's started. L/J One shot, second person perspective. Cover art by burge-bug.

That smile was for Potter now, and she was beautiful for him – just for him. Snape knew it. He could tell. She was lit up from the inside and it was Potter who did that to her. L/J [Snape POV]. One-shot.

It was called the Reginald Borage Grant for Innovative Brewing and Potionmaking, and Lily knew from the very start that she had absolutely no chance of winning it. LJOneShot.

It's Christmas Eve and the holiday spirit seems to be lacking for one miserable Lily Evans. Being home for the holidays isn't all she thought it would be with a sister like Petunia. So when she finds herself unwillingly in the company of James Potter, at first she's furious. "Lily!" James exclaimed. "Happy Christmas!" "It isn't Christmas yet," she muttered. "And I'm hardly happy."

Five separate one-shots in which James catches Lily staring at him. Then mischief sparkled within them. "It's rude to stare Miss. Evans," James's cheeky voice slashed the silence. His face was closer than it had been a minute ago. Her eyes widened when she realised she unconsciously leant forward while looking into his eyes.

A series of instances in which Lily Evans said yes to James Potter. L/J. One-shot.

L/J. It doesn't surprise her at all that James Potter comes rushing into the Hospital Wing only an hour after she lands herself there. And for someone she doesn't even like all that much, she's still glad to see him.

When Lily realizes that not only does she not hate James Potter, she actually might want to be with him, is she too late? James has decided to move on but can he really leave Lily in his past? With loveon the horizon and a war looming can this destined pair find each other after years of fighting? Rated for my tendacy to give in to my theatrical nature.

Lily gets jealous and James finally realizes that she likes him. Short oneshot

He rolled his eyes. "Fine. Prove it."/ "What, this isn't proving it for you?" Lily said, irritated, shaking her and Alice's entwined hands./ "Kiss." He raised his eyebrows as if saying, 'Or are you chicken' And oh, how Lily wanted to wipe that smirk off of his face. R&R! ONESHOT

"For some odd reason, Professor Flitwick preferred to seat his students alphabetically according to first name. Do you know what this meant? It meant that I, Lily Evans, was to be seated by James Potter...Each year the seating arrangement lingered. Each year I sat next to the detestable James Ryan Potter. Each year I fell a little more in love with him."

He didn't have a problem with Diggory wanting to ask her out. He was over her, wasn't he?

Lily speculates on her changing feelings for James Potter and the possibility of overcoming their turbulent history.

When normal people propose, one person gets down on one knee, asks 'Will you marry me' and the other person screams and says 'Yes'. And sometimes, they cry. with happy tears, of course. But Marauders aren't normal people, so obviously they wouldn't propose the normal way. And James Potter's a Marauder. ONE-SHOT!

Oneshot. Continuing with his potion, he glanced around until his eyes found Lily. Her beautiful red hair was tied up in a high pony-tail as she diligently worked on the potion in front of her. Her work space was neat and tidy, he compared it with his messy and dirty one. REVIEW!

...And neither are red and blue socks. Join the Marauders for an average day in the boys dormitory, where Sirius is a suspected drunk, James is a miscreant and Remus wants all of the craziness to end! R&R!

James leaned forward and smirked, "You know, You really shouldn't bet on things that already happened." Then he walked away with Lily, leaving Sirius speechless and wondering: BLIMEY, WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO? ONESHOT!

The school year is over but the Marauders still have plenty to say to each other but there is no way they could cause any trouble through letters. Is there?

Passing notes in class is not necessarily a responsible thing to do, however, why you would ever trust the Marauders to follow the rules is beyond me. A short random fic about notes passed in class, tempers, and consequences.
