- part 2

"Come on," my father shouted at James and me, James smiled at me and winked. He held his hand out for me.

"May I?" He asked sweetly.

"Always," he smiled, and took my hand. Kissed it, spoke in a funny accent and said:

"Thank you my darling, now how are we gettin' to the weddin' my lass?" I laughed out loud who wouldn't?

"We are getting there by car of course! Do—do you want to ride with me?" God why was I so nervous anyway? I looked in his eyes and felt calmness, peace. I leaned in, he leaned in too, and I was just about to finally kiss Potter than my sister Petunia showed up.

"Oh Lily, don't you know that the handsome men go to me? So idon't you dare think of kissing him. He's hot, he's mine. Got it; besides who wants to date a freak?" Petunia laughed. Tears started to form in my eyes.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but you must be Petunia, Lily's older sister." She nodded sweetly, which is weird I didn't know evil people could do anything sweetly. "Than why," James continued, "are you treating her like crap?" I was so shocked; I had no idea what to do.

"One I'm not handsome, really it's the suit. Two, I would love it if she kissed me, three she is not a freak nor has she ever been one, and I don't believe she ever will be. And four I would love to date her, and I loved her since first year at Hogwarts. Oh and if you think she's a freak than that must mean I'm one too, because I'm just like her." Finally, James finished ranting to Petunia. I looked at him; slid towards him, and hugged him, very tightly. "No one's iever defended me like that, I can't believe you did!" I told him.

"Well…you need better friends than… cause I just can't stand anyone being mean for no reason to the girl I'm in love with! Especially if it's her isister!"

"Y-you love me?" James expression clearly said oops!

"Yes I do. Now come on, let's get in the car."

As I stepped into the car with James, my father, my now glaring sister, and the groom, Fredrick; I felt so loved byialmost everyone.

The ride was long and tidiest, nervousness filled the air. Fredrick was freaking out. "What—what if I forget all of the steps?" He wondered aloud, for the umpteenth time.

"Don't worry I fix the music, so that if you do, iwhich you won't mess up, you'll be fine." James moved his hand over half an inch, and it touched mine. He looked at me, blushed, and looked away. When he touched my hand, I felt static! I wish it was there longer. Seeing as there was another thirty minutes left to the car ride, this gave me the perfect time to think. Alone, without iany interruptions.

I ifinally had the time to think about how I ireally felt about James. I mean I used to think he was so thick, and a toerag. But now I'm not so sure. Maybe this is the real him without any of his annoying friends! Well Remus isn't really annoying, he's just…'soft spoken' Or, maybe this is just another i stupid plan to try and win me over. God I always hated it when he did that! It wasn't special enough; it was fast, and somewhat…unrehearsed. I always wished he had really cared and taken time, to really think about what he was asking of me.

Basically, the battle of James rung in my head for the rest of the ride; I was so out of focus, I didn't hear James say "we're here, let's get you married Fredrick! I just know that you're going to be so hap—Lily? Lily? Can you hear me?"

"What oh I'm sorry I'm just thinking…about something." I said stupidly. James grinned.

"Well I got that part Lils. It is okay if I call you that right?" He asked. God he voice made me feel so safe! And loved…

"Yeah, its fine…Jimmy! "

"Oh you're going to pay for that! No one calls me Jimmy!" He cried in the car.

"Why?" I asked curiously. Throughout all of this my father was smiling really wide. I don't know why he was this happy. Wedding or not, I need to know why he's been leaving James and I alone together, letting up talk longer than we really should…

"Well—"James looked at Fredrick who looked quaky in the car. I hope he doesn't get sick all over himself! "We'll talk later; right now I think Fredrick's going to be sick. Come one" He said to Fredrick, "lets get you out…inow!"

As James took Fredrick out of the car, my father started to talk to me, "I forgot how great it is to be in love for the first time." He looked at me, and got out of the car too. When my sister left, I rather not repeat the name she called me.

Finally I stepped out of the car, and hit James in the back. "Ouch!"

"Oh James I'm so sorry!" I started to rub James' back and I found out that his back is so strong! I mean his muscles have muscles! He looked back at me, with love in his eyes. He started to lean in, as did I. I'm not sure if it was all the hours I was talking to him that I ireally got to know him, or if it was meant to be, but our lips met. His kiss was full of passion, and lust. He was quit good at it. After fifteen seconds, his hot lips finally broke apart from mine. "Wow," was all he said, and when he said it, I saw his hazel eyes light up. "You are an amazing person, Lily, I pray you know that."

"I do now James. So I can't believe I'm saying this, but isn't there something you wanted to ask me…Potter?"

He grinned, just like in third year, a somewhat sweet grin, which caught your eye. But I could see the bad boy in there too just dying to come out. "Yes, I do, Lily Evans, would you—"

"Why are you guys, still standing there?" My sister asked stupidly. "Come ion Lily, you've got to show people around!"

"In a minute Tunney, You were saying Ja—"

"No NOW!"

"Fine! Will we talk later?" I asked James, hoping I didn't sound too much like-a-girl-who-can't-get-enough. Even though that's what I was. Oh god I hope he didn't know!

"Oh course, after a kiss, like that we ihaveto!" James said as I blushed. He kissed my brow. I hugged him.

"Are you happy, now?" I asked my annoying big sister, as we helped people find their seats.

"No."

"Shocker."

"What," Petunia asked dumbly.

"Nothing, okay, just let it go." I said.

"Fine, but why did he kiss you?" She asked.

"Oh Lily darling over here, I need you!" My aunt Wilma cried. ithank god! I thought. No one can know I like James. No one, not even James; although he probably already knows since I kissed him. Or did he kiss me? But—

"Hello Earth to Lily, Wilma wants you."

"Right," I said as the ranging questions in head started to hurt. "Hi, Auntie Wilma, How are you—"

"You're lucky I saved you from that horrid girl" She said pointing to my sister. "But why did I have to save you is my real question. Are you having boy troubles; because I saw a young man gazing over at you. And if I'm not mistaken, I believe I witnessed to two you to kissing!"

I flushed bright red, and said nothing to my aunt.

"Ah, well I must be right. Go and help the others, I want you to try and relax I know it's hard, you two, just for the record, look VERY, good together! Now off you go!"

As I left, I caught James' eye, he grinned at me. That made going back to Petunia bearable.

I wanted so badly to blow a kiss at him, and just be there for him. Ironic right, but James is isuper nervous about Not Alone, if he messed up, iwhich he won't than he thinks that the groom will hate him, for ruining the 'special' dance.

"Hullo sis." I said duly, I wish I could be as far away form Petunia as possible; she always brings me down…somehow.

"Shut up, freak, go and sit; the wedding's about to start!" I didn't have enough energy to argue, so I just rolled my eyes. As I sat down I noticed James' eye never left mine, as he began to play .It was as if he couldn't live without me… without at least seeing me. He needed me, I wanted him.

This is my big chance to finally see what dating James would be like in my head! I closed my eyes, and pictured James wearing another funny shirt he had come to own, I also pictured myself in a light blue summer dress. With small straps, and a dotted pattern on the front; I pictured us walking down the road to Hogsmead together, talking, laughing, and just enjoying us being together. I could also see a figure looking at us, with a shocked expression, mixed with hatred. The figure had longish, greasy, jet black hair, like James, except James' hair was…cleaner and nicer looking (sometimes) And the figure was wearing a green and black tie, that could only mean one thing it was a Slytherin. And I believe I knew which one it was…

The point of that was to know if my brain was really sure about going out with James. Even though I kissed him, and now I want more, I just want to be sure… Oh why am I doing this? I really like him A LOT, I should be with him, always…

When James asks me out again, if he does, I'm finally saying yes!

The rest of the wedding pasted quite quickly, and when Fredrick kissed Jane cheering erupted out from everywhere people could be seen. Wow, everyone was really happy to see them finally married. I hope it's the same with me. And seeing that the wedding is over that mean it's time for the party. And James' song will be coming up soon.

I walked over to James, "yes hello Mr. Potter when will you be performing the bride and groom's song?" I asked all business like, while James just laughed, and started to join my funny tone.

"Well Miss. Evans I shall be performing it soon, for the dance," he said in the funniest German accent, I've ever heard, "is about to begin!" I stared to laugh out loud, James took my hand, and looked me in the eye. "So about the…kiss, I think you wanted me to ask you something?"

"Yeah I do, would you?" I said shyly.

"Lily, I really like you, I think I may love you, and would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" Everyone was looking at us. James had mistakenly said all that in the microphone. I had made the choice to say yes a long time ago, I just needed to give this a try. I don't want to think about what could've been.

"Yes, I would be honored if be you girlfriend James Potter!" He smiled that gorgeous smile and I jumped into his arms and hugged him everyone started to clap. I grinned, this was going to be one fun, ifinal year. This is it, but anything can happen.
