    Summary

    James is hopelessly in love and painfully persistent, convinced he and Lily are meant to be. But his grand gestures and public declarations only push her further away. To Lily, James’s antics feel performative, like she’s the final boss in a game of conquest. She’s self-assured, sharp-tongued, and skeptical of his sincerity, especially because she's not used to guys being serious about her.

    (And no, this isn't a fic where she is insecure about her weight and she can't believe a guy could like her because of it, my Lily Evens knows she's a baddie)

    And yes, the title is the hit song by Queen, go listen to it <3
