Okay...another Lily and James fanfic. Based on the song 'The Rest Of My Life" by Less Than Jake

I looked at the darkness that swirled down below me, the shadows hiding what lay below. As the tears that ran freely down my face mingled with the rain another sob racked my body, a loose rock that lay on the abandoned tower roof digging deeper into my bare foot.

"How could you? I HATE YOU! I can't believe you would do that? So it was all a lie, all those years? Just, go jump off a tower or something!"

I took a step closer to the edge, the nothingness looking very inviting at the moment. I knew the pain that would come when I hit the ground, but then it would be over. The pain would be momentary, then I would never feel it again…

She had been my life support, and now it was going to shut down for the final time. At least I had apologized. Or I had tried to…a bolt of pain shot through me, and I winced.

"What do you want Potter?" She screamed.

"Since you are never going to forgive me, just thought I'd still apologize while I'm still alive." I told her, then headed to the other common room. I stepped through the portrait hole and found who I was looking for sitting by the fireplace.

"Hey. Just thought I'd say goodbye. Thanks for everything Sirius." I told him, hugging him in a brotherly fashion. He had just stood there confused as I climbed out of the portrait hole and jogged up towards the tower.

A flash of lightning filled the sky, and the thunder that followed shook the roof. I was doing what was just, if I didn't it would kill me for the rest of my life. I was tired of all the second tries I had taken, I just wanted the pain to end already! I took a deep breath and jumped, ignoring the yell behind me.

"OY EVANS!" I burst into the heads dorm, and Lily looked up at me shocked. I ignored the tear streaks on her face as I approached her.

"What do you want?" She snarled, eyes flashing, masking the pain that had been there moments before.

"Do you know where James is?" I barked.

"No, why would I know that?"

"Then when was the last time you saw him, and what did he say?"

"I dunno, an hour or so ago. He said 'Since you are never going to forgive me, just thought I'd apologize while I'm still alive.' And then he left." She said without emotion. A shock ran through me, I felt like I'd just been stupefied.

"No, no he wouldn't." I whispered, horror struck. "I heard you two got in a fight. What was the last thing you said to him?"

"That I hated him and that he should go jump off a tower or something. But what does that have to do with anything?" She sighed. "And why am I telling you this?"

"HOW COULD YOU?!?" I yelled at her. "Don't you understand, he's going to go jump off a tower now! He came up to me half an hour ago telling me goodbye! LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!" I ran out the door, ignoring as her eyes grew wide and she crumpled to the floor.

I sprinted through the corridors and up the stairs of the tower, summoning my broom over my shoulder as I continued to run. As my broom flew up I jumped on and zoomed up the remaining steps, bursting out into the storm just as a bolt of lightning illuminated the sky, and I saw a figure standing on the edge of the roof, and then they jumped.

"JAMES!"
