James, What Would You Think If Lily Dated Someone Else? Would You Feel Anything...jealousy Or Something?

James, what would you think if Lily dated someone else? Would you feel anything...jealousy or something? What would you do if she did?

Lily is allowed to do whatever she likes. 

I don’t care. Honestly.

Carlotta, how do you plan on dealing with all this Shelley nonsense?

You know when there’s a fly in your room, and it’s really annoying, and it’s buzzing, and you think you just can’t ignore it, but you can’t find it either? 

Well, if you pay attention to something else, eventually, you just tune out its futile, meaningless buzzing. And if it should land anywhere near you, you can smash it with a book.

Hint: Shelley is the fly.

Excerpt, Chapter 32

Especially these patrols. This was her third time patrolling with him, and Lily was always left feeling guilty.

He had a girlfriend.

Couldn’t she just… just… forget that she fancied him? Then, spending time with him wouldn’t make her feel like—well, honestly, like the Carlotta to James’s Frank Longbottom.

Damn it all.

Perhaps she’d better steer clear of James Potter for a few days.

donna are you in love with lathe?marly when are you going to tell adam that you love him?

Donna: Don’t make me laugh. I mean, yes, he’s obviously attractive, and compared to the silly immature blokes at Hogwarts he’s… but… no. Shut up. Go away.

Marlene: If I ever lose my mind. God, I mean I rejected the poor bloke. How much of an awful human being would I have to be to go after him now that he’s finally happy with a girl?

Lily, if (when) James and Carlotta break up would you be willing to go to James about your feelings?

…

I don’t know.

That’s awfully official.

And scary.

And hypothetical.

Ahem.

James: Is there maybe a tiny (or big) part of you that still has feelings for Lily?

No. And… just no. And even if I did… but no. Of course not. I’ve moved on. Is it warm in here?
