Lie in the Sound
Silent tears flowed down Lily's face as she throw down the Daily Prophet , burning her head in her hands. 'Auror Charles H. Potter killed' the headline stretched across the front page. Though it had been over 18 months since she walked out on the apartment she shared with James Potter and never returned her heart ached at the death of a man who had become like a father to her. She suddenly heard a shot 'pop' and soft-faced young women stood in front of her. 'are you alright?' Laurie knelt in front of her grabbing her hands. Lily nodded throw her tears. 'but James' she whispered 'I should go…tonight'.
Laurie nodded in agreement.
Charles Potter's body lay dignifiedly in state in the home he shared with his wife of 30 years and up until recently, his only son. 'Mum' James said softly from the door as Susan Potter stroked her husbands hair. 'people are starting to arrive' Susan nodded her head silently, stood up and gently tugged at her black suit.
'I am truly sorry Sue, he was a great man, a great man' a very disguised man embraced Susan gently. 'Thank you Tom, he was'. 'James my boy' Tom shook his hand vigorously. 'you were all he spoke of you know' he whispered. James noticed Sirius sleep in quietly give his mother a quick kiss on the cheek and stopped behind James subtly 'Lily's here' he whispered patting him on the back before slipping away into the kitchen. 'Lily' James repeated softly to himself. 'James?' Remus appeared in front of him suddenly. 'Moony' James almost smiled 'I'm so happy to see you' he embraced wholly. 'ermm..' Remus hesitated as he pulled away 'Lily's here I know' James nodded knowing exactly what Remus was about to say.
Lily shifted nervously as she walked in the front door of the house that was so familiar yet totally alien. 'Lily' Susan said shocked before bursting into tears again. 'Lily ran to hug her 'I'm am so sorry Sue' she hugged her tighter. 'for so many things' she added. Sue pulled away and smiled ever so slightly at Lily. 'he had a lot of love for you, you know' Lily nodded 'and I him' Lily was soon over-powered by a presence she had not felt in the longest of months. 'James I'm-' she began looking down at the floor but was soon interrupted as she felt James arms around her pulling her closer to him. 'sorry' she finished.
As the night wore on, Lily soon realised that she had become 'the girl who walked out on James Potter' and she could feel harsh eyes on her as she moved through the rooms. 'Sirius' she breathed a sigh of relief as she spotted the marauder on the stairs and joined him. 'they'll be alright right?' Lily asked. Sirius shrugged 'I hope so. I'm glad you're here Lil, he needs you' Lily's eyes opened 'needs me? Sirius I walked out on him, trust me he doesn't want me around'. 'Why? Why did you leave?' Sirius asked with a tone that Lily had not heard before. Lily shrugged 'for no good reason…but I left it too long and it was so late to go back'
