Lily saw his smirk fall and her heart froze. He wasn't going to do it. No! She wanted him to kiss her, she wanted to feel that again, she wanted...him. She wanted James. She wanted James Potter! She wanted to be his one and only, his everything. Before the thought of giving into someone like that terrified her, but when she thought about giving into James...that sent a thrill through her like she had never felt before. Lily Potter...that had a nice ring to it.
But no...marriage...hello she was seventeen...no marriage thoughts now. He said he'd only kiss her if she wanted him to...if she wanted him to...was he daft, of course she wanted him to kiss her, but she couldn't let him know that. She felt him drop her wrist. Apparently he was presenting her with a choice. Run and forget about this situation, go on as if nothing happened or stay here and get a mind blowing kiss that will change everything. Now she had to answer his question in a way that didn't make her sound as desperate as that carnal teenage side of her that had risen up in her brain was.
"I don't want you to feel obligated to, just because I want you to...oh so badly."
