“James,” the boy in her body said with a smile. “Long time, no see. Why have you been…”
“Lily,” she cut him off. “I’m sorry. I need to tell you something…”
“Lily,” said Sirius, coming around the corner. The dratted boy had followed her. “I think you should tell James something.”
“Lily,” a booming voice interrupted, causing the four students to turn. “I was wondering if you’d seen anyone with red…” Slughorn trailed off in horror. James looked down at his hands, only to find that they were bright red and glowing.

Chapter 14: Love Works in the Weirdest of Ways is now up! Thanks for sticking with this story! Don't forget to review :)
Runner up QSQ - Best Chaptered Canon Romance
Reason for Nomination:
This is the most unique take on how James and Lily really got to know each other. The story is hilarious and keeps you laughing throughout, but it never lets you forget the serious stuff. Plus, she somehow manages to end each chapter with a nice cliffhanger.
