A/N: Thank you all for your reviews! Getting reviews really cheers me up, so now I'm in a good mood :) I'm so sorry about not updating in awhile...it's amazing how someone as young as me can be so busy! Ok, that's about all I have to say. On with the story!

Chapter Four

Lily and Jane walked along the dirt path, each holding a bunch of flowers in their hands. Lily listened as Jane spoke.

Jane was quite the talkative person.

"...So then I was like 'What would you like for drinks?', and the guy was like 'I'll just have some ice water.', and I was like, 'Ok, I'll be right back.' and he was like 'Okay...' and then I walked up to the cute bartender and was like...." Lily coughed loudly and Jane realized that they reached Lily's little house. Jane grinned sheepishly as she realized how much she had been talking.

"Why don't we continue this conversation after lunch?" Lily asked politly. Jane smiled and nodded. Lily and Jane walked into the house and Jane looked around. Jane had been here many times before, but she loved looking at the colorful glass sculptures that Lily's mother collected and placed arounf the house, giving the house a beachy feel to it.

Lily walked up to the stairs and yelled up to her mum, "Mom! Is it alright if Jane stays for the rest of the day?" Mrs. Evans walked down the stairs tiredly and wiped her forhead. "Yes that's fine, Lily. Hello, Jane. It's so nice to see you again." Mrs. Evans said and smiled warmly at Jane. "Here, Mum. Do you like them?" Lily asked and handed her mother the flowers she was holding. Jane did the same.

"Oh yes, their lovely, thank you." her mother answered and pulled out a vase and placed the flowers inside of it. "Make yourselves at home." Lily's mother said while washing her hands, preparing to cook dinner. "When you're hungry, there's lunch in the fridge." Mrs. Evans said and dried er hands off. "Oh, I'll get it!" Jane said excitedly. She ran over to the fridge, opened the door, and peered inside of it.

Lily laughed; it was amusing watching Jane marvel at the muggle invention. "Jane, honey, I said when you're hungrey." Mrs. Evans said. Jane smiled sheepishly and closed the door. "We'll just be in my room." Lily said and dragged Jane up the stairs. When the two got in the neat room, Jane said, "Is your room ever messy?" Lily laughed and plopped on the bed. Jane walked over to Lily's open window and saw a letter on the window sill. Jane looked at Lily, who was taking a nap, and grinned evily. Jane carefully opened the letter and read it:

Dear Lily,

I can't believe you stole my broom! You are always full of surprises. Your last letter meant nothing to me, and I will keep on trying to win your heart no matter what you say in real life or in letters. I won't let you go.

Forever Yours,
James

Jane's grin vanished and she read the letter over. 'How sweet!' Jane thought. Jane looked around Lily's room. Everything was neat and tidy, except there was something sticking out from under the bed. Jane checked to make sure Lily was still sleeping and looked under her bed. Jane pulled out an old shoebox and looked inside; It was filled with jewlery, dried flowers (mostly lilies), two notebooks, a little wooden box, and a bunch of letters. Jane opened one of the notebooks and flipped through the pages; it was filled with poems written by James. Jane looked at the back of the book where she read:

When I look in your eyes,

I see that your happiness dies.

I want to make you believe

I don't want you to leave.

I want you to understand

That you're what makes me stand.

Lily, without you

I can't be true.

What more can I say

When you look my way

I love you more then anyone could,

If only you understood.

Jane read the poem over and looked at Lily's sleeping form. Why doesn't she like James? Or maybe she does, she just won't admit it. Jane opened the second notebook and realized that it was Lily's diary. Jane opened to a random page and read the entry:

Dear Journal,

Today James sent me another letter. It was really sweet. He said he just wanted a chance, and I really want to give him that chance. But what if I end up like all of the other girls he dated? As soon as he knows my real feelings for him, he'll move on to the next person. But then he said that he's different. He wanted to prove it to me. So you know what he did? He sent me lilies and roses. They were absolutly beautiful. He also sent me a little wooden box. But if you open it...I can't explain it. You'd have to open it to understand.

Jane put the diary down and picked up the little wooden box. She opened and immediatly knew what Lily was talking about; She opened it and a wonderful scent filled the air. Jane felt like everything was okay. Then she heard a voice singing. The voice belonged to a women, but she wasn't singing words. Jane was reminded of the phoenix's song. Then a Jane remembered her best memories.

Jane saw a boy named Tucker handing her flowers.

She saw her mother being cured from her fatal illness.

She saw her brother, Harry, swimming in the lake with her.

She saw her little sister Emma on Emma's fourth birthday.

She saw Tucker and herself in the park, playing on muggle swings.

She saw herself performing a difficult spell.

She saw herself being sorted into Gryffindor.

She saw herself meeting Lily for the first time.

She saw Harry again, teaching her how to fly on a broomstick.

Suddenly, the images vanished and she saw a golden letters appearing on the box.

I hope that someday, when you open this box, you will see me in it. I love you, Lily. Never forget me.

Jane snapped out of her daze and understood; The box showed the person who opens it all of the memories that mean the most to that person. Jane placed everything back in the shoebox and stuffed it under Lily's bed and sat on the ground crying. Harry was a big part of Jane's life, especially through hard times. Jane's dad was abusive ever since he lost his wife. Suddenly, Harry had enough and he left, leaving a note to Jane:

Dear Jane (and Emma if your reading this),

You have been a great sister to me, and I know how disappointed you'll be after I'm gone. But you have to understand that I can't live with my father, and I'm very sorry at leaving you and Emma alone to deal with him. You mean so much to me, and I want you to get away from our father when the opportunity comes. He's dangerous, and I don't want you to get hurt. I'm going very far away, and we probably won't see eachother again. I know that you would have wanted to say good-bye, but I couldn't wait to leave any longer. Jane, you were my best friend, and I'll never forget you.

Love Always,
Harry

P.S: Don't try writing to me, where I'm going will be impossible to find for owls. I'm sorry.

Lily woke up from the sound of Jane's sobs and looked around until her eyes fell upon Jane. "Jane? What happened?" Lily asked quietly and sat down next to Jane. "Harry..." Jane managed to choke out and Lily understood. "It's okay, Jane. Don't think about him, I'm sure that..." Lily's eyes fell on the tiny wooden box James gave her.

"Where did you find that?" Lily asked quietly. Jane looked at the box and cursed herself for forgetting to put it with the letters. "I..." Jane began put Lily pulled out the old shoebox and immediatly noticed that nothing was where she left it before. "Jane...why did you look through this?" Lily asked quietly. "Because I'ma nosy, selfish, obnoxious..."

"Just don't tell anyone about it." Lily said and sighed. "So...you're not mad at me?" Lily shook her head, "I'm just disappointed in you, that's all. I'm hungry, let's go eat." Lily said. Jane nodded and stood up. Lily could always make people feel quilty. It was almost a talent. Jane sighed, "I'm sorry, Lily." Jane said, feeling so regretful, embarassed, and guilty. Lily turned to face Jane, "It's fine, Jane. Just...learn to respect people's privacy. Are you hungry or what? Let's eat!" Lily said and ran down the stairs.

Lily's happy attitude helped ease Jane's guilt, and Jane ran down the stairs, eager to see Lily's blender.
