There is a small scar on Lily's cheek, the only thing she has left of the girl she used to be. It feels like there should be more, that her silvergreen bleeding heart should be displayed to the world, showing off its rips and bruises, wounds stitched back together with dragon wings and stuffed with stars.

Everything else she let them heal- the burns from her dragons, the gash on her leg from the only time she ever tried flying-but the simple cut on her cheek-caused by a diamond engagement ring tearing into her flesh- she refused to have magically wiped away.

It helps her remember. Even now, as she dances through time and twirls upon stardust, she refuses to forget that he loved her.

Once upon a time, they were Lily&Teddy.
That time may be gone, and the ring that gave her the scar might rest on the hand of a pretty Veela princess, but the tiny imperfection on the cheek of a girl with supernova eyes and a heart full of stardust remains.
