jealousy, jealousy (completed, 1.2k) by @spookydanamulder-multifandom. Rated G.
On the way to their sixth year at Hogwarts, Lily Evans and James Potter try very hard not to be jealous of each other (they fail).
Testament of Youth (completed, 3.6k) by @neverenoughmarauders. Rated T.
‘Now time seems precious,’ Robert McGonagall had said quietly.
Three months later, James finally understands what he meant.
Profile Match (completed, c300 words) by @tedwardremus. Rated G.
James isn't sure if he failed or succeeded at online dating
touch and go of don't know what to say (WIP, 59.6k as of 30 June 2026) by @gigglesandfreckles-hp. Rated T.
It’s not as though anyone else will be awake at whatever ungodly hour it is anyway.
He’s wrong.
There, in front of the fire, her long dark red hair tumbling loose down her back in a way he never gets to see in the daytime, because it’s always pulled into a tight plait, is Lily Evans.
A Risk Worth Taking (completed, 9.8k) by @jilyyall. Rated T.
Lily Evans lives in two different worlds, but she has always made an effort to share her experiences with her parents. They know about Hogwarts. They know about magic. They know about her friends. They do not know about James Potter.
When a day in London turns into an accidental run-in, a slightly awkward lunch, and a conversation she can't avoid forever, Lily is forced to confront a frightening truth: building a future with someone means letting them into every part of your life. It does not necessarily mean they will remain there forever.
Sometimes, that's a risk worth taking.
ANTI James Potter club (completed, 12.4k) by @vivianjily. Rated T.
Lily Evans starts the Anti-James Potter Club in sixth year, but she can never finish writing its charter. Article Five—the one meant to explain the club's real purpose—stays blank.
By seventh year, as war closes in on Hogwarts, she realizes hatred requires distance she can no longer maintain. James keeps appearing in moments that unravel her certainties: protecting first-years, fighting for the defenseless, looking at her like she's worth dying for.
When they join Dumbledore's resistance together, the lines blur between enemy and ally, between conviction and something more dangerous. Somewhere between combat training and their final exams, Lily understands what she's been resisting all along.
when it's too heavy to carry (remember) (completed, 3.5k) by @sunlit-di-s. Rated T.
These days, she sees Potter more often than not, being the youngest members of the Order together with complementing skills.
A Christmas Miracle (Or, what to do when your girlfriend tries to seduce you at the Christmas gathering) (completed, 2.2k) by @yallthemwitches. Rated M.
He needs an exit strategy—or at least a single brain cell to tell him to calm the fuck down. Could it really be possible that of all the shoddy lessons he’d slogged through in his pathetic quest for ‘education’, not a single one could have been ‘ What to do when your extremely fit girlfriend is unintentionally (?) giving you a hard-on at the family Christmas gathering?’
Life is so inconvenient. And cruel.
going for gold (be my home) (completed, 13.9k) by @harryissuchalittleshit. Rated M.
After breaking up with her partner after their second Olympics, Lily is in need of someone that can rival her skills and work with her. But having a bit of mean reputation on and off the ice, she has gone through her fair share of skaters.
Enter James Potter, her former crush and a world class hockey star.
Either they're headed for gold or last place.
