"This is fucking ridiculous," Lily muttered to herself upon entering the hall.

No rational human being would need all of this room for a lecture about physics. Compared to the size of the room, there were hardly any students in the hall either. Maybe fifty and they were all toward the very front except one boy. He sat maybe halfway to the front, completely alone. For some inexplicable reason, Lily was drawn to him.

He had messy black hair, and his legs were kicked up on the desk in front of him.

"You shouldn't put your feet on tables." Lily informed him, dropping into the seat next to him. He jolted violently almost falling. She shot him a look. "And that's why."

"Wha-"

"Feet," She commanded. For some odd reason he found himself grinning and lowering his feet to the floor.

"I'm James Po-"

"Why is this room so bloody huge?" Lily interrupted-for the second time, he noted.

"No idea," James shrugged, giving her an odd look, which Lily caught.

"What?"

"Nothing,"

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"No reason,"

"Tell me right now."

"Nah," He smirked.

"James," She scolded.

"You know my name?"

"You said it twenty seconds ago." Lily raised an eyebrow.

James laughed loudly. "Touché."

She smirked triumphantly.

"To answer your question, I have no idea why this room's so large." He glanced around. "Maybe the professors have huge group orgies in here."

"That's vile," Lily gagged.

"No, imagine it!" He grinned at her expression. "Sweaty and late at night, when all of us students are innocently tucked away in our dorms."

"You're thinking too hard." Lily shook her head.

"No I'm not,"

"Mate," She laughed. "Your girlfriend is clearly not shagging you well enough if you're fantasizing about teachers having sex."

"Don't have one,"

"What, seriously?"

"Yeah,"

"You don't have a girlfriend?" Lily stared, green eyes boring into him.

"No," James' hand jumped to his hair.

"Huh," She frowned.

"What is it?"

"You're just very fit, James," She glanced at him, pink tingeing her cheeks. "It surprised me."

"That I fantasize about teachers instead of having a girlfriend?" He raised an eyebrow with a shit-eating grin.

"Both," She rolled her eyes.

"Maybe if I'd known you before today I'd fantasize about you."

"Am I supposed to be flattered?"

"If you want," Lily laughed, throwing her head back. James smiled happily at her, and she made an impulsive decision.

Out of nowhere, Lily stuck her hand out and yanked James to her by his collar. "My name is Lily," She whispered, sub consciously noting the professor had come in. James' eyes were wide behind his glasses as Lily very gently pressed her lips to his. Her free hand moved to grip the back of his neck, lightly tangling her fingers in his hair. His hands jumped to her face, tilting her head to allow him better leverage, and suddenly Lily found her mouth open. She enjoyed the feeling of his tongue in her mouth, and he enjoyed the feeling of her hands gripping him tighter to her. Very breathlessly Lily eventually pulled away. Her cheeks were flushed, and an absent smile adorned her red lips.

"Fantasize about that."
