“YOU ARE LIKE ONE MILLION
MOONS AND I AM A TINY SPECK
OF DIRT IN YOUR ORBIT”
Three things about James Potter Lily would confess to no one – not Mary, not Bliss, not Remus, and especially not Severus:
He was quite attractive, though this was spoiled by his appalling personality.
If he wasn’t such an arrogant, immature, cocky, show-off, bullying toe-rag, she’d have considered dating him.
His attention completely flattered her.
She hides a smile as she turns away from Potter, pretending she doesn’t find his foolish compliment charming at all.
Mary, however, is not blind, and teems with the sort of giddy taunting glee only a best friend can teem with.
Lily ignores this, as well.
