Not Another Cinderella Story by Nymphea
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 49]
Summary: Lily Evans is determined not to become another Cinderella story.
And it's not just Cinderella that bothers her: so often a character begins her story insisting that she doesn't need a man’s protection, when—lo and behold—she’s saved by a handsome man and they ride off into the sunset despite her “determination” otherwise.
And if you started to think that their stories probably began much the same way as this one, well, you must not know just how determined Lily Evans could be.
Not an average James/Lily fic...(but still some fluff)...please read and review!

Her friends decided to act like complete girls, and Lily was stuck in the middle. And when she was left to look after a cat, she then finds company with a certain boy with that distinct messy hair.

A Few Detentions and A Story by LaneTechFreshie
Rated: 3rd-5th Years [Reviews - 1701]
Summary: James Potter: Marauder. Lily Evans: Prefect. They're both seventh years at Hogwarts. They're also about to have a pretty interesting year--complete with a few detentions, pranks, confusion, and laughter--in which they get through school, make some trouble and maybe, just maybe, sort out their feelings for each other.
Thanks to all you who have made it possible for this story to be in the Top Tens. It was a very happy moment when I first saw my story on the list, and I love being able to go back and see it there now. Still. Yay!
Throughout the latter half of 2010, and the first half of 2011, I re-edited this story. The changes were mostly to fix stray (and annoying) grammar and spelling errors, but also to rework some plot points in an effort to stay truer to canon. I also updated the style; having written this story so long ago, my writing has definitely developed (and I would say gotten better), so I edited to reflect that. (I apologize for the errors that were in the story before all this editing. I found them immensely distressing when I reread my chapters. Heartbreaking, really.)
Big “thank yous” go to the three people who helped edit/nitpick the first edition of this novel: violagirl, fairiesandcream, and Omagus.
And yes, this story is up on Fanficition.net under the penname: Io.Sono.Emilia.
Of course, as a disclaimer, I’m not JK Rowling. The Potterverse does not belong to me, but I am in it and love it.
