Let Go

A/N: Here's chapter four!! it's called Embrace as I'm sure you gathered, JUST AS A WARNING! ::

This is as far as I've written out, there is one more chapter in this 'set' of chapters, (if that was confusing, I'll explain in a PM) I know what I want to do, make it a whole thing ''till death to them part' so bear with me, I don't have the … road to get to the destination,, if that made any sense whatsoever.

Reviewers:

He was just about to ask what was up when she interrupted him talking slowly with her head bent, "My sister blew up at me and I ran away."

She looked up at his face, she didn't even feel the tears run down her face when she had her head bent in shame.

He grabbed her other hand slowly, she looked up at him with lost and abandoned eyes, So empty, he thought.

Her hands tingled, she licked her dry lips. He looked at her sincerely and said "I know this is going to sounds weird, but you can stay here as long as you need."

She looked up at him hopefully and said, "Really? You wouldn't mind?"

He frowned for a moment then grinned and said,"I don't mind one bit, you belong here."

She smiled shyly, looked down again and mumbled "Thank you."

James bent his head down and whispered in her ear carefully, ever so softly, "You can stay here forever, Lily".

He smiled to himself, happy he finally said the words he'd meant to say to her since the first time he laid eyes on her. Not necessarily in those exact words, but the meaning and implication was all there.

Lily thought for a moment making her deciding decision, she smiled and wrapped her arms tentatively around his waist. He automatically wrapped his own around her back and waist.

Their bodies fit together like the last 2 missing pieces of their own jigsaw puzzle.

Lily felt at home in his arms, protected from the world. James was overjoyed that the girl of his dreams came to him, of all people in her time of need. He pulled her body against his and bent his head into her auburn locks absorbing and memorizing her intoxicating scent.

Lily pressed herself impossibly closer getting dizzy from his perfection, his voice, his thoughtfulness, his hospitality, his protection, his warmth, his smell, and most of all; his promise.

She tilted her head towards his ear and paused for a moment before saying the final words to him. The words that would seal his promise. She thought of her father, trying to keep the family together, and failing; her mother, oh, her mother she loved so much, failing to see the truth in her eldest daughter's motives; her sister, her old best friend, her companion, her rock, failed to see to positive side of her powers and slowly crushing their bond.

She smiled as she decided, she whispered in his ear, these words she stole from her heart, from the core of her being, "I'll stay here, forever and ever, with you."

A/N: Yes, yes, I know it's short, it sealed the length of the journey did it not? Anyway, I just got a surge of inspiration so another update may come up in the very near future.

This story is not over, there is an outline and a pattern, it's rather interesting and I'll be sending out a request next chapter or – you know what, now,

If you have any good quotes, phrases or lines from songs that you think could be incorporated into this story please, please, please, please tell my ASAP, I need one for the end of the next chapter and the one after.

If you're confused PM me and I'll explain.

Thanks so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,so,SO much!!

Yours in writing while munching on a cupcake,
