Thank you for the reviews!I wrote this Chapter four different ways before I was happy with it. So I hope you enjoy!
'Mummy? How come you and Daddy aren't married like other Mummies and Daddies?' Lily looked up from her school work, to see a pair of beautiful Azure eyes peering up at her from over the counter. Lily set down her quill, and picked her three year old daughter up and brought her into the sitting room. Lily settled them down in one of the arm chairs. Lily looked down at her daughter, she had never seen anything so beautiful in her life. She had beautiful raven black hair that ended in curls at the end, big beautiful blue eyes. She had an oval round face just like her mother, and she had a cute button nose, with a light dusting of freckles across it.
'Well Rainy, your father and I don't believe we need papers to prove we love one another.' She smiled down at her daughter.
'But, you have a ring like other Mummies do when they are married.' Her daughter said, while she played with the emerald ring that was on her mothers finger.
'It just shows other people that I belong to someone, and I belong to your Father.' Lily explained to her daughter.
'Do you love Daddy?' Her daughter looked up at her.
'I've loved him before he even knew I existed- I was only fifteen.'
'How old are you now Mummy?'
'I am Twenty-one.' She said, while smirking down at her daughter.
'That's a long time Mummy.' The Little girl giggled.
With a jolt, Lily woke up. She was in her bed, in Gryffindor tower. What the hell was that? Lily thought she was going to have a heart attack. That felt so real! Was it real? Lily let the dream roll to the back of her mind. She checked what time it was. Apparently it was late, she always slept in late. This wasn't good because, she was supposed to be leaving for Malfoy Manor in an hour.
Lily was packing what she needed at the last minute. Throwing her stuff all over the dormitory, not caring where anything landed as long as she wasn't late. She knew that the house elves would put her stuff away once she left. After much persuasion, with help of her Aunt Cissy she was able to stay with the Malfoys. She was going to be leaving by floo, and stay with them, then on Christmas Eve everyone was to be staying at Grimmauld Place for the rest of the Holidays. Lily hated that house, even though it wasn't as bad as it was. Her father and a few others helped him restore the house. They took everything out and made an entirely new house. They weren't able to get the terrible portrait of Mrs. Black down until she was about nine though. She still didn't know what they did with the portrait; all she knew was that the wall it once preoccupied was covered with portraits of the late Marauders, her grandmother Lily, along with Nymphadora Tonks-Lupin. Lily Loved her Auntie Dora. It was a terrible thing to say that out of everybody on that wall, she wished she was still alive. They had a lot of things in common, something she didn't have in common-with other girls no less. When Lily was finished she brought her bag down stairs and dumped it on the floor as she reclined on the couch. She watched as all the children ran back and forth from the common room, to outside, to back in the rooms. Everyone was too giddy for the holidays to Lily's liking; it made her sick really. She felt the other side of the couch go down, and a loud sigh. Lily turned to find her older brother Albus.
'Where the hell, are you going?' he asked her.
'Malfoy Manor.' She replied.
'Bull shit.' He sneered at her. Lily rolled her eyes.
'Think what you want Al but, I am.' Lily said, while she picked up her bag full of clothes.
'Are you coming to Grimmauld?' he asked.
'Yeah, everyone is you, dolt.' She said, while she stepped over his legs that were resting on the table that sat in front of the couch.
'See you then.' Albus said to his sister.
'Yeah.' Lily said over her shoulder and making it out into the corridors. Lily and Albus were close, even though it didn't seem like it, they both understood one another and that was good enough for the both of them. Lily ran her way down to Severus' study wanting to wish him Happy Holidays, before leaving. She ran through the door out of breath and plunked herself down in the window seat.
'I see you're leaving.' Severus observed.
'Yeah, I'm staying at Malfoy Manor.' Lily stated. This caused Severus to raise an eyebrow.
'The Malfoys, as in Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy?' he asked, in disbelief.
'Yeah, I asked Uncle Draco if he would ask, then Aunt Cissy persuade my parents and then they agreed.' Lily said out of breath. 'What you still don't believe me?' Lily asked. Then lily started digging through her tote bag, until she found what she was looking for.
'Aha- here!' she said as she pulled out a black envelope with a torn silver seal that was graced with an M on it.
'That would be a Malfoy Invatation.' Severus said to her, in defeat.
'You do know that Draco is my godfather right? Lily asked him, while putting the letter back in her bag.
'No.' he simply stated.
'Well he is, and only to me though not my brother's.' Lily said, looking back at him. He didn't say anything, he just left it.
'Well, I have to go.' Lily said, while standing and grabbing her bag.
'I wanted to say Happy Holidays, Severus.' She saw a slight smile grace his lips for a moment, then it disappeared before she could really take it in.
'You too Lily.' He said, sincerely. With that Lily left, the study. She wanted very badly to confess her love to him just now but, he was a portrait. It made Lily feel like an imbecile. She made her way back to the Headmasters' office to floo into Malfoy Manor. The Headmaster tried to talk her up but, ever since she went into the office. She just ignored him and helped herself to the floo powder, and she was gone. She landed on her bum, in the fire place in Lucius' Study. Before she could do anything she was engulfed in a hug by two people. This was going to be a long Holiday.
Somewhere, Severus Snape woke up with a jolt having the same dream as Lily Potter did that same morning.
