Together is what matters
It was all happening so fast, to fast really. The end of the seventh and final year at Hogwarts was here, early January had arrived and ended in a flash, February was sweet and quiet, March surely could have been better, and now April arrived . It was spring, and James and Lily were surprisingly still together—well not surprising at all really. And according to Sirius Black inseparable lovers they were, but who could really blame them they were the closest to family they had right now, besides their best friends of course. The Gryffindor Common Room was strangely quiet; Lily and James were on the sofa, enjoying the peacefulness of the rainy day. There was supposed to be a Quidditch Match today, Gryffindor Vs. Slytherin, but it had been cancelled due to weather and what not.
James took Lily's hand and started to stroke it with his thumb. "Lily?" James questioned entirely out of the blue. Lily replied, a bit startled too, if I might add. "Yes James?" He let go of her hand to grasp her chin, staring intently into her, his hazel eyes searching her sublime green ones.
"What will happen?" she stared at him puzzled "What does he mean?" She thought rather than spoke. But he added, "To us Lily, when we leave Hogwarts?" "What do you mean James?" this time it was said aloud, concerned practically written on her face.
" I mean we'll still be together…. Right? Where will we go, with m—my parents gone a—and yours?" He had stuttered the last bit, being that this was a touchy topic for Lily, James none the less. Lily did the very last thing expected she smiled while caressing his cheek. "We will help the order James, we'll be there for each other, we'll get through it together, all of it. " James beamed at the heart felt words he was hearing her say but went back into the confused state he was in.
"But, where will we go—" his eyes wandered around the room, tried to look anywhere but Lily's, to not suffer from pure embarrassment. He loved her, and he knew it and never not once doubted it. Had he told her yet? No, but he sure wanted to. He continued, "Like live?" she was silent. "Why was she silent?"James thought to himself. He couldn't hold it in any second longer he was about to nearly burst if he didn't tell her, " Merlin Lily! I'm in love with you!"
Lily looked shocked but a tint of happiness shone in her eyes, it was there anyone would see it. " James," she started, " I'll tell you where we'll go, we'll find jobs ones of our expertise, find a flat or a house maybe, we'll get through it, and James, I'm in love with you too, I really, truly am."
It had just come out, without a sudden regret behind it no late regrets either, yes Lily never knew she could love a boy at such a young age but she did because it wasn't just any old boy it was James Potter. She continued, "And, maybe one day we could get married, and have children and—" She stopped and stared at James. Where had this outburst about marriage come from? She didn't know."Sorry." Lily told him sheepishly.
James grinned" Honestly Lily, those thoughts were roaming through my mind moments before you actually said it." She was lost in thought at his statement , so she did what her instincts had told her to do, kiss him, it was short but absolutely delightful, no doubt. James snickered "What was that for?" She gripped hold of him, into a hug genuinely and whispered softly into his ear, "We'll get through this James Potter, I know we will together the two of us." Although right there was where they were right now, that was where they began a new chapter in their lives except this chapter was not Lily's nor Jame's. It was there's together.
