A/N: Okay, I want to say thanks to my loyal readers, and to my even more loyal reviewers. I know I said that I wouldn't post until I got home from vacation, but my mom got sick, so plans fell through. So here you are, oh-so-lucky that I am home, instead of at my Grandparents'.

Disclaimer: So, I've never done one of these before, but do you really doubt that I am JKR. Becuase if you do, you're loopy, doppy, crazy, dull, and brainless, need I go on?

A Lily For Your Thoughts
by: RiriRavenclaw
Chapter 10: Wedding Day

The next morning the family woke up while it was still dark outside.

"Lily get UP!" James, Jazz, and Jody screamed.

"Gahh... the suns not even up." Lily said getting up and putting on her muggle robe. "Oh Jazz, Jody. You're here!"

"We have to get to the church for Petunia's wedding." Jody smiled.

"Mm-hmm. No one gets hurt as long as I get my coffee. Who's driving?" Lily grumbled.

"Err... Vernon or your dad. Your choice." Jazz laughed.

Lily walked downstairs giving Jazz a death stair at her comment. Her three friends trailed behind her. The house was in a hustle and bustle. Petunia and Mrs. Potter were running around the house frantically looking for little things like clips for Lily's hair and an extra tie for James.

"When I get married I'm eloping, I don't want any of this ... crazy-ness." Lily sighed looking up from her scone.

"NO you are not Missy." Lily's dad came up behind her. "Your family has to be involved in your wedding."

"Okay, so I'll elope with my family." Lily rolled her eyes.

The girls dressing room was full of all the bridesmaids. They were wearing long sleeved maroon gowns with matching flats. Jazz did Lily's makeup and hair and she looked like an angel.

"Hey Flower. Stop looking so good, today's about me!" Petunia teased, walking into the room to get ready.

Two Hours Later

The music began playing, and the girls walked down to the alter, followed by the flower girl. James thought Lily look breath taking, his eyes couldn't be taken off her, not even when...

... here comes the bride was being played on the organ and the crowd rose to their feet. Petunia walked up to Vernon for the vows. To Lily, it was beautiful.

After the wedding everyone came filing into the reception room. Everyone took their seats. The first course of food came around to everyone and the best man stood up clicking his fork to his glass to call attention. "I guess it's time for a toast," he said. "Vernon has been my best buddy for years, we've gone through it all together. I'm just glad he found a good one like Petunia. Love is hard to find and I just hope we all can be as lucky as them to find it."

James looked down at Lily and realized he could love her... he did love her.

The best man sat down and everyone chanted "to Vernon and Petunia!"

After all the food was eaten, and all the toasts were given Petunia stood up to throw her bouquet.

"C'mon Lily." Jazz tugged at her sleve.

"No thank you." Lily looked up. "I'm not getting married any time soon anyway. You go." Lily watched her friends go with joy. Lily eyed Petunia's flowers float over her head and glide towards where she was sitting. It seemed like slow motion as the flowers floated into her lap, "Of course." Lily smiled.

"OH Lily!" Everyone screamed with glee.

"I don't get it." James said.

"It's a muggle tradition. It's supposed to mean I'll be the next to get married. And then Vernon will throw Petunia's guarder and it means the same, but that is for the guys."

"Oh, I want to do that." James pointed and smiled running over to where the bachelors were gathering. James sped to the guarder and caught it like it was a snitch. "Hey Lily. I guess this means were getting married." James screamed across the room, which everyone laughed at, Lily included.

Petunia and Vernon were making the rounds and came to Lily and James. "James is it?" Vernon asked. James nodded, for his mouth was full. "Thanks!" Petunia continued. "You saved today you know." She leaned down closer to James so Lily wouldn't hear and whispered in his ear "make her happy." James smiled, looked at Lily and replied "no problem."

Vernon called Petunia over to him and she came running like a dog.

"What are you doing? He's just like her. They are just freaks, okay." He spat. Petunia nodded

Lily turned back to her plate and looked down at it, her stomach pulled a flip flop "It's fine Lils!" James said putting his hand on her shoulder. She shrugged it off and went looking for her friends.

When everyone got back to the Evans house they all went their separate ways exhausted. Lily, Jazz, and Jody trudged to Lily's room and went to sleep. They woke up at 9 o'clock the next morning, the day James and her friends were to leave. Once the three girls had woken up and changed they slipped down the stairs. James was already downstairs, eating and conversing with Mrs. Evans.

"Hey Lily." Her mum smiled. "Girls." A mumbled reply erupted from the trio.

"So Lily. James here was just suggesting that he'd return the favor, inventing him and all, and asked if you'd like to stay at his house for the rest of the vacation?" Lily's mom asked whisking waffle batter.

"Mum." All three girls said with wide eyes.

"I love that you all think of us as family," Mrs. Evans replied to the other two girls.

"Mom, can I talk to you. Privately." She shoved her mom into a corner away from James, Jazz and Jody following quickly.

"What?" Mrs. Evans asked confusedly.

"Mom. What about Christmas, I want to spend that with family." Lily sighed.

"And we don't know if his parents will be home," Jazz said. And with that all four girls turned around at stared at James, who saw this and gave an intimidated smile.

"They will, and I'm sure I'll be fine Lils. And Christmas this year is at Jazz's." Mrs. Evans smiled, "you can leave before that."

"All right." Lily smiled and walked back to the counter James was eating at.

"She'll be there." Jazz, Jody, and Mrs. Evans said harmoniously.

James smiled and ran upstairs mumbling something about packing.

"I guess I should go pack." Lily said taking a bite of James' abandoned waffles.

Upstairs all three girls stood right in front of Lily's wardrobe staring at Lily's clothes.

"It's not that hard, really. I throw some pants and sweaters in there. Socks, essentials like that. Grab an extra scarf and gloves, and go. Why must you make this so hard." Lily said turning her head to Jazz, taking herself out of the trance the wardrobe seemed to have on the girls.

"You'll be at the Potters. With James. With the Marauders." Jazz said smiling at Lily.

"These words are supposed to change my mind?" Lily asked. "You don't agree with her do you?" Lily turned to Jody.

"Well kind of. It's not like I care that much about my appearance, but-"

"You care!" Jazz smiled. "You take like a half an' hour every morning just to get dressed."

"What does that prove?" Jody asked.

"We wear uniforms." Jazz snickered.

"That is beside the point. I mean this is the Potter manor. You should dress a little nice Lily." Jody finally finished her thought.

"Right. So I should wear my best outfits and, oh let me guess... make up to? I so get that," Lily gasped jokingly, beginning to toss clothes into her suitcase.

"Fine. But you'll see I'm right." Jazz said.

"You always say that." Lily said.

"She's usually right though." Jody pointed out.

"Muuuuum!" Lily called. "We're leaving."

"Okay. Take these to them." She handed Lily a tin of her favorite brownies. "Yum." Lily took the brownies. Lily walked to the car James arranged for them to take to his house.

"Ma'am." James gestured to the open door. Lily laughed a little and slipped into the backseat scooting over. James hopped in next to her.

The trip to James' took about 30 minutes. On the way James asked questions about the "muggle mode of transportation", and Lily tried to answer them discreetly as a muggle was driving them.

"James, don't you take Muggle Studies?" Lily asked.

"Yeah, but our teacher isn't a muggle. I don't think he knows any more about them then I do."

"Oh, that explains a lot." Lily smiled.

As they drove up to the Potter manor Lily laughed. The house hardly looked like a manor.

James sprung from the car, and opened the car door for her. "Thanks. Should we get our trunks?" Lily asked.

"No. Charles will get them." James responded. Lily looked at him oddly, but didn't object. The two walked up to the house, and the door swung open.

"Hello Mister Potter. You have arrived. Should I get your bags?" A stuffy Butler asked James.

"Hey Charles. This is Lily. The trunks are in the back trunk of the car. Could you put Lily's in the occupied guest room upstairs by mine?" James asked Charles.

"Of Course." Charles nodded.

"And Charlie boy?" James asked. "Are the Marauders here?"

Charles smiled at James, "Yes sir!"

Lily and James walked inside. "So you have a Charles?"

"Yeah, he's a good friend. Been here since I was a boy, don't know what I'd do without-" James stopped and looked at Lily's face.

"It's like a mansion." Lily gasped.

"Technically, it's an heirloom." James laughed. "Been in the family for ages."

"Right." Lily nodded in shock. "Expanded by magic?"

"Yup." Sirius boom walking down the stairs.

"Si!" Lily came up giving Sirius a hug.

"Missed 'ya too Lils." Sirius laughed.

"And Remus? And Peter?" Lily turned around to see them ascending the steps.

"Boys," Lily rubbed her hands together evilly. "This is going to be fun."

"She scares me sometimes," Sirius said. "But you've gatta love her."

A/N: So... finally the wedding. And Lily's at James'? What has she got planned? Oh, next chapter shall be so much fun, and the more you review, the faster I can update (funny how that works!).
