When They Have Each Other
The first tears hit the letter just seconds of reading.
Lily just couldn't, wouldn't believe it.
There would be no more late night talks with her dad when she came to visit, no more food fights with her mom in the kitchen when they were trying to make dinner.
No more mom and no more dad.
'Lily?"
She was jolted out of her shock. She didn't hear James come in and seeing the look on his face just sent her over the edge.
Lily collapsed in James' arms, not having the strength to go on. He let her soak his shirt with her salty tears while he mumbled comforting words in her ear. James sat there with Lily in his arms rubbing soothing circles on her back.
After awhile lily's sobs subsided. She was still crying but the worst of the shock was over.
They sat there for what seemed like days, when Lily mumbled,
"Will the pain ever stop?" Against James' chest.
James was hesitant when he repelled,
"No, everyday is just as painful as the first, but in time you realize that they never really leave, they will always be in your heart."
Their parents were dead and with little Harry on the way, it seemed that everything was just falling apart.
When they felt the baby kick then for the first time, they knew that everything was going to be alright just as long as they have each other.
I'm new at this drabble thing so if you have a suggestion i will be glad to write it.
