Wedding bells rang as the newly wedded Potters left the church. They were
finally married. The most obvious couple had finally gotten together. After
years of hating each other Lily and James finally realized one thing: They
had loved each other since day one. Why it had taken them so long to figure
it out was still a mystery to them along with all of their friends.
They walked out of the church with smiles on their faces followed by their best man and maid of honor. The best man was Sirius Black, James best friend and the one who finally made Lily and James see that they were a perfect mach. Molly Weasley was the obvious choice for maid of honor as she had been equivalent to Lily's older sister. Lily's true alder sister, Petunia Dursley was also present at the wedding with her husband, Vernon, but they were only there because Mrs. Evans (Lily's mom) was the one who managed the invites and couldn't stand seeing her daughters fighting.
Nothing, not even Lily's wretched sister, was going to ruin their happy day. James lead Lily down the carpeted stone steps and out to the limo. There the limo driver opened the door for the couple as they waved their hands at the crowd. "Kiss her!" rang out a familiar voice belonging to another good friend of James, Remus Lupin. James looked at Lily. He never passed up a chance to kiss her, so without delay, he wrapped his arms round her waist and pulled her into him. Her arms worked their way up to his neck and sat there in a relaxed manner.
The couple got into the limo where they could finally be at peace. "This is the best day of my life, Mrs. Potter," said James putting an accent on the last part grabbing Lily's hands and looking into her bright green eyes.
Lily blushed; James was charming although he still hadn't grown out of his big headedness. She found that she didn't mind any more. "Oh, Mr. Potter, always the charmer," she laughed, accenting his name as well. She figured that someday she was going to look back on this day and call herself crazy, but there was no turning back now.
James smiled, "I have been waiting to say that all day."
"More like for the past 5 years actually," she teased playfully.
"Lets see, five years ago...that would be back in second year, Lils. Sounds about right," he said leaning forward to kiss her. "See how easy it is to make your dreams come true?" he teased.
Lily rested her head on James' shoulder and asked the question that had been haunting her since the night they began dating, "Why didn't we see that we were perfect together before?"
James sighed. "I have always seen it, Lils. You are the one who kept us back," he said, knowing that this statement would definitely push one of her buttons.
He had indeed pushed the right one. Lily sat up straight, "I, Lily Evans, kept us back? I think not! It was you, my big headed friend, that is to blame."
"Lily Potter, honey. Not Lily Evans," he said slyly. "And no, it wasn't my fault. I tried to get you at every available moment, but what did you do? You tossed me away like a dirty sock only causing me to want you more."
Lily sat back reflecting on the night when they had finally come to their senses. It had been just about 7 months ago on Christmas day at the annual Christmas Ball at Hogwarts. Lily hadn't actually meant to fall for James, just give him a chance. James swept her off of her feet and then she realized that it was fate, just like James had told her all along.
"So where exactly are we going on our honey moon, Lils?" James asked kissing her again, thoroughly amazed that he could finally ask her that question.
Lily kissed him back, I thought we were going to your parent's cabin off the coast of the Bahamas," she said.
"Oh yes, that's right," he said ruffling his jet black hair.
Lily pulled away from him once again. "You did ask your parents about it, right?" she asked.
James turned sheepishly away from her piercing stare. "I was going to as them at the reception," he mumbled.
Lily threw up her hands. "How many times did I remind you? I am surprised you managed to book the reception hall," she said in distress.
James grinned. He loved Lily when she was mad and he knew exactly which strings to pull to do so. "One thing at a time, booking the reception hall was the only task you let me perform while preparing for our wedding," he said.
"Well I would have let you do more, if you hadn't forgotten to tell my mother that my sister was too busy to attend the wedding," Lily said.
James remembered it clearly. He was supposed to do anything possible to convince Mrs. Evans not to invite Petunia, but he had gotten side tracked. That must have been the biggest mistake of his life, Lily had almost called off the whole wedding when she heard that her sister was attending. "Well I am sorry, it just so happens that I am a family person," he said.
"So that's why you failed to mention to my mother to add your brother to the invite list," Lily pressed, speaking with great sarcasm.
James decided to ignore the last comment about his snobby brother. "You are particularly attractive when you're mad, you know," he said smiling. James draped his arms around her waist and kissed her again. Lily immediately stopped her fussing and for got why she was mad at all in the first place as she got caught up in the kiss.
James had a special gift for making every care in the world disappear from Lily's mind when he kissed her. There had always been a special connection between them that Lily could never break, even when he kissed her when she hated him. Kissing her was what finally brought them together. At that Christmas dance, James had pulled an un expecting Lily into a rather passionate kiss that, surprisingly, she didn't object to.
They had been together ever since, and James had been proposing to her since the day after they started going out until Lily's 18th birthday last May. It was then that she realized that James was irresistible and that he would eventually find some way of marrying her, so she just said 'yes' and now, here they were, Mr. and Mrs. Potter.
Lily moaned as the limo began to slow down. It was always when the kiss began to lead somewhere that they got interrupted. James however didn't let Lily pull away, he kept his lips firmly on hers and his tongue in her mouth. Lily heard footsteps outside of the limo door and did the only thing she could. She bit his tongue causing him to pull away instantly, just in time. "You are a brutal one, Lils," he said.
"Well I did try to tell you the easier way, but you didn't listen," she smiled, knowing that there wasn't anything she could possible do to offend James.
The limo door opened and James muttered, "We had a good ten seconds before we had to end it." Lily ignored his comment and got out of the limo, and stood waiting for James. He held out his arm to her as the limo drove away. Lily took it and he lead her into the dining hall.
It must have been the prettiest sight that Lily had ever seen. There were lilies all over the hall. Everyone stood up in their seats as they entered the hall. James saw Sirius standing by Remus and Peter at the long table that the wedding party sat at. The announcer came over the speaker saying, "And now for the first time, may I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Potter!"
