She knew she probably shouldn't have brought up the fact that she definitely heard what he'd said early, but hey, it was out there now.
"I've told you before, Lily," James said in a slightly defeated tone. "You just never... You'd tell me to piss off and walk away. What did you expect me to do? Go through my entire Hogwarts career not talking to any other girls because the one I liked pretty well hated me until a year ago?" He wasn't going to apologize for flirting with other girls. It wasn't like he snogged them in the middle of the great hall or anything. It was just flirting. And when Lily had been how she was, not that he blamed her, what else was he supposed to do?
