A/N: As you might have noticed, once again -reminded- us that we're not allowed to write songfics, I've made slight alteration to this fic: meaning I've took out all the lyrics before someone reports me or find out themselves. So, i'm sorry to those who actually liked the lyrics...all I can tell you that every "xxXxx" line was where a line of the song used to be. By the way, if you haven't already guessed, it's 'Come what may' from Moulin Rouge. So you want to listen to it while reading

Come what may

It was pure amazement that rocked from the very core of his soul. It enveloped him in its glow and expanded to everything around him. He had never heard more beautiful words uttered from anyone's mouth.

He had never thought that he would be able to reach out for her. He thought she would never belittle herself when she could have so much better. So much more. She was pristine and kind. She was everything he was not. She had made it clear that he did not deserve anyone…let alone her. Yet in his hour of despair, where all goodness turned their backs on him and no light can reach him in the dark abyss; she found him. She reached out her hand and touched his heart. She brought him back.

James walked out form the warm shelter of the Three Broomsticks into the bustling street. Lily was clinging to his arm in a comforting grip. He still remembered the day when she reached for him. The day she saved him from himself.

'Hey, James...Are you free this Hogsmeade weekend?'

He could still see the flush that graced her lovely face but clashed with her auburn hair. He remembered how her feet shuffled. Side to side. As if deciding whether to run away or not. She nibbled her bottom lip nervously. Creating what he thought to be the most adorable picture.

'…if you're not busy…will you go with me?'

The world before them was glorious. It was snowing softly, ornamenting the street with pure white. Blessing the world with purity. The lights in the shops were lit. A warm fuzzy glow lighting the darkened world. It was a normal scene in the small wizarding village of Hogsmeade. Yet with Lily next to him, nothing was more breathtaking and romantic. The streets was full of life but a peaceful calmness radiated around them.

They strolled along the street. Both absorbed in the beauty of the festive before them. Lily stopped suddenly, overwhelmed by the pine tree in front of them. Snow hung from its every branch. Specks of charmed light sparkled. Pixies flew about the tree, making tingling music. The simplicity and yet the beauty. It was magnificent.

Lily wrapped herself more tightly around James' arm, feeling his warmth spreading into her. How she had admired the changes that befallen the man before her this very year. How she wondered when did he became the desirable man before her. She didn't know when he changed, but she loved the James Potter who, she knew somehow, was staring at her with adoration.

Lily looked away from the tree and over at James. She smiled softly as she saw James was indeed looking at her. His hair disheveled and his cheeks slightly pink from the winter wind. His hazel eyes sparkled happily. She deftly maneuvered herself in between his arms and stood on her tip toes. She softly touched his lips with hers as she encircled her gloved hands around his neck.

Though taken aback by Lily's sudden advance, James did not hesitate to wrap his arms around her waist. She tasted of the hot chocolate they drank in the Three Broomsticks. Warm and Sweet. Not overbearing in anyway at all. A soft whiff of lavender filled his nose as he drew her closer to his body. He deepened the kiss and adding more pressure, slowly messaging her lips.

Everything seemed to disappear the moment her lips touched his. It was the moment he had only dared to dream about in the past. There was gentleness. There was passion. There was a feeling neither dared spoke of…yet.

When the both of them broke apart, they smiled at each other shyly. James put his arm around Lily as they made their way back to Hogwarts for the night.

No words were spoken. None were needed.

This was how things should have been all along.

'Will you make me the most blessed man on earth and marry me?'

"James, don't wet yourself." Sirius joked next to James as he shifted and looked at the door for the tenth time in the last five minute.

"What if, she decided she doesn't want to marry me?" James asked his best man.

"She will be there mate." Sirius said, patting him on the shoulder, "And if she isn't, I can always sniff her out and drag her back."

"Sirius!" James said indignantly but still a smile appeared, easing the stressed face.

A grand chord on the ebony piano gesticulate the beginning. The chapel became silent. Only the thumping of his heart could be heard. As the doors opened, he held his breath.

But there she was.

Not anywhere else.

There, at their wedding.

He could've run to her if not reminding himself at the last moment that it would ruin the ceremony.

Lily strolled down the rich wine colored carpet. Gorgeous in every aspect. She, on the arm of her father who smiled tenderly at her, floated on her day. It was her day. Hers alone. He knew he could never find a woman more perfect. He worshiped the very floor she walked on.

James stood stiffly before the alter and stared. Stared at the gem…the angel that descended from heaven and into his life. There was so much for them in the future. Nothing could go wrong. Not with Lily next to him.

They were going to be happy.

They were going to be rich in life.

They were going to grow old together.

No one can change that. No one should dare try.

He wouldn't let them. Not over his dead body.

It was blurred in James' mind. All he could think about was how much he loved her. He felt the warmth of her hand as she slid her promise, the insignia of the love…their love onto his finger. It was as if he was burnt. Not a painful burnt. But a warm licking flame that spread…from his heart and finger. He smiled tenderly at the goddess before him in her snow white gown.

"I love you, James. I love you so much." She whispered softly to him as they stood before all their relatives and friends.

Pictures snapped around them. Recording this epic moment of their life.

James looked over at Lily. She was smiling and laughing as the crowd before them shouted for her to throw her of bouquet of flowers. She obliged them, tucking the bunch into her body before flinging it in the air.

The moment the bouquet took air, an idea dawned in his mind. He quickly whipped out his wand and pointed at the flowers still soaring in the sky. James transfigured the bouquet into a heart shaped cushion with the inscription: 'I am yours forever and more.'

He heard Lily gasped next to him as she hugged his arm tighter than before. Suddenly, Lily pulled him down, surprising him and planted a kiss on him. He heard the loud cheering of the crowd. Sirius next to him was whooping and was shouting something along the lines that he could do better, so the ladies out there not to worry.

But he didn't care. Lily's lips on him were more than a distraction. It was a drug.

He was truly blessed.

The reception party was marvelous. Lily had always dreamt of her wedding and the party. The most important people in her life were there. Her parents, her friends, her mentors…and James.

Her husband.

Her soul mate.

There wasn't anything she wanted more than to have him in her life.

He was so gentle, so loving, so kind, so forgiving…

Her list could go on for all eternity…

Her sweet reverie was broken when the attendants of the party demanded James to make a speech. Lily smiled as her lover was pushed from beside her towards the front. He was blushing. Her self-assured and confident husband was blushing! She giggled softly to herself.

"Not everyday that you can see the cocky James Potter blush, eh?" her friend said next to her.

She nodded and watched James stood atop the table. He shifted a bit but then he was grinning lovingly at her.

"C'mon! Tell us how you and Lily met and how much you love her!" Sirius demanded.

She heard him fake a cough and then he started.

"Well…I want to thank my best friends, my brothers. These gentlemen had been there for me. Lily and I met at Hogwarts. We've been house mates for seven years. And for those who knew us, our relationship was not as loving as it is now."

Everyone in the room laughed.

"These guys here had carried me to the hospital wing and had stopped the two of us from err…inflicting too much damage on each other that we can't get to this stage today. When I realized that I actually liked Lily, they were there to stop me sending myself to St. Mungo. Lily did not reciprocate my feelings in the beginning…actually, she didn't for a long time…she said that she'd rather go out with the squid in Hogwarts before going out with me…well I guess, they didn't work out, so she came to me."

Another laugh sounded. James's face turned serious as the laughter died. He turned to her as she spoke the next part.

"…I had given up in the end of sixth year. Lily, you were just too…too perfect, too wonderful…I don't deserve you…and there were some events during the summer that had reinforced that belief. When I returned in seventh year, I had lost every hope. And then, my love, you reached out for me. You saved me. And I found myself loving you more than I did in the beginning. When you said you'd marry me, I was over the moon. I was jumping in the apartment that night. Sirius had to threaten me to body-bind me! Today, you make me the happiest man in the wizard world. I love you so much. So much that I cannot really express myself. Today and the days to come, if you ask me to walk to hell and back, I will. If you ask me to give you stars from the skies, I will. Ask me to do anything, I will. For you and only you, Lily."

She was crying by the end of his speech. She didn't care if she looked like a hag right now. She just loved him so much.

They were in spacious room. They apparated here. In a frenzy. It was there honeymoon suite.

Neither paid attention to anything in the room but the bed where they shall spend the night, loving each other.

James' mouth met with hers. His tongue dueled with hers. He pressed tightly into Lily, devouring the warmth her body provided as her arms wrapped around his neck.

Lily felt weak in the knees, a tingling sensation gathering in her spine. She was glad that James' arms were so tight around her as she knew she most likely unable to support her own weight under his passionate ministration.

When they came up for breath and James loosened his grip to give them some breathing space, Lily's feet hit something solid. She fell back, pulling James with her, and hit the bed. The two started laughing at the apparent hilarity they found in the situation as James said breathlessly, "Knew you'd fall for me."

"Of course." Lily said smiling confidently up at him. "I knew you'd catch me."

"Lily, there may be hardship in life that I cannot prevent happening…but know this: my love for you surpass everything- even time and death- it will last forever." He said with raw emotion.

"I know," she stroke his face tenderly and kissing his mouth, "I know. Love me tonight. Love me with your body and soul."

A/N: I hope you still like it, it's a bother, I know, but please still review...The whole entire fic is just so different without the lyrics...but what can I do when makes such a big deal about not being allowed to use lyrics.
