Scorpius Pov
'Evans?' he asked confused what she was doing sitting in a library alone doing homework when her birthday party was to be a held in a couple of hours.

'Yeah?'
'What are you doing here?'

'I guess I just wanted to be alone.. away from the rumours' she sighed.

'What rumours?' Scorpius asked blankly.
'You don't know?' she asked. 'Its been circulating through out the whole school for a few hours. Apparently a boy heard potter whispering to black that he was proposing someone..'

'To whom? You?'
'Thats what everyone thought at first but apparently it is some blond bimbo.'

'Ooh. Jealous, much?'
'Nah. I am fine.'

'Are you?'
'What does fine mean?'
'Terrible. Ghastly.'
'Probably.'

'So you like ... Potter?' Scorpius asked.
'I guess.. I do. I mean I miss his annoying quirks.. and his funny goofy tactics..'

'Sounds like somebody has fallen pretty hard' Scorpius smirked.

'Get lost, Rogers.'
'Hey, I am sorry about him. Listen, for all it's worth you need to confront to him about your feelings before it's too late.. before he has proposed.'

'I don't know.. I will just come of as desperate' she muttered.

'Maybe those are things you need to do in love. Things you had never imagined.'

Evans POV
She was on the top of the astronomy towers and James was looking at the sky.

Lily looked in the same direction to see the sun setting down..

'Majestic, isn't it?' Potter said without looking at her.

'I guess. Who's the lucky girl?'
'The girl isn't lucky. I am.'

'Seems like you have fallen pretty hard.'
He looked at her and their eyes met.

As hazel met emerald, a smile ran across his face.. a smile which she had grown to love..

'Yeah.. I have.' He ran his hands across his messy black hair and then fumbled for something in his pockets.

It was a gift wrapped carefully with a small note pinned to it.

Lily Evans

'Its your birthday.' He smiled. 'And if this works out.. I will have restored my faith in humanity.'

'Thanks.. Potter. This is— why would you—'

'Open it.' He said with a small smile in his face.

As she opened it, the look in his face became serious and the smile slowly faded leaving a look of anticipation.

It was a small box. Lily's heart was beating fast. If this was what she thought—

It was a ring. A ring so beautiful.. she couldnt describe it in words.. Only through the various emotions which were ranging within her.

'Lily Evans.. I have my professed my love to you a million times in the past two years and faced a rejection.. but never lost hope. Finally I faced the last resort of all. With a help of a close friend, I have finally managed a thing I would have never managed to do on my own. If you say no.. I will get complete closure and try to move on and heal my broken heart.. If you say yes.. I will restore my faith in humanity and try to keep you happy forever and after that..  I will change into the James you want. If the times get dark enough I will never leave by your side.. and willingly die for you if there is no other choice.. I will always remain true to you and only you.. Always.. till the end of our lives and after that.. I just ask for one word. Lily Evans - will you marry me?'

A million answers raced within her head. Emotions tingled within themselves.. But within a moment's time she did what her heart told her.

Just a word.
'Yes.'

A bright smile crept into his face.. and she smiled with him. They held hands and leaned in.. to what was the most romantic kiss..

'I love you, Evans.'
'I love you too, Potter . I always have. I always will. Happy birthday, Evans.'
