Notes Het in omg so many years, but I felt that the last prompt should be a Potter one and this came up. I do love James/Lily I just haven't written much about it until now. Not to mention I did all 24 prompts! Woo! Now I'm off for bed lol. I hope you all enjoyed reading them! <3

Nervous wasn’t the right word to describe James at the moment. Terrified fit him better because he was minutes away from asking his girlfriend, Lily Evans, to be his wife. James practiced at home, in his flat, and even around his friends although they got a good chuckle from it. He knew all his practicing in the world wouldn’t work if she said no.

“James, look, the leaves are changing. I love this time of year.” Lily happily sighed as she held on to James’s arm.

“Yes they look rather nice don’t they?” James said. He hoped his voice didn’t waver. He knew it did when Lily stopped walking and frowned at him.

“James, is something wrong?”

“Um, well…”

“You and Sirius didn’t start another fight at the pub did you?”

“No.”

“Are Remus and Sirius are having another lover’s quarrel then?”

“No it’s not that.”

“Then what is it?”

“Lilywillyoumarryme.”

“What?” Lily cocked her head to the side in confusion.

James cleared his throat and moved to one knee. He pulled the ring box out of his pocket and took a breath.

“Let me do this right. Lily Evans I love you so much I can’t describe it. I love waking up to you in the morning and falling asleep with you at night. It makes me so happy to see you every day. I want to continue it for the rest of my life. Will you marry me?”

James felt a lump form at the silence that met him, but the smile stretching across his face reassured him.

“Yes, yes I will James!” Lily exclaimed as tears of happiness pricked her eyes.

James grinned and placed the gold band around her finger.

Lily smiled and pulled James up for a kiss. James grinned against her lips, feeling like he won the Quidditch World Cup.

James didn’t have to be that nervous after all.
