Lily stood under the tree, the wind blowing her vibrant red hair around; a fierce expression sharply etched upon her face. She looked dazzling even when she was angry; the defiant look reminded Teddy so much of Lily's mother. And it was because of that look that he was slightly hesitant to approach her.
"Lily?" He said tentatively and Lily turned around quickly, her hair whipping her face. Lily still looked angry, although her eyes had softened considerably. Teddy considered himself lucky; had it been James, Lily would have exploded in anger immediately.
"Are you angry at James?" He asked and Lily rolled her eyes.
"That's like asking if the sky is blue," she said grumpily and Teddy laughed.
"He only wants to protect you," Teddy said softly. Lily glared at him for a moment, before sighing.
"No, he wants to stop me from having a life and from dating. But you don't get it, you're a guy," Lily said angrily; her arms folded. Teddy simply ruffled her hair in response, before wrapping his arms around her. She rested her head on his shoulder, before looking off into the distant landscape. Teddy smiled softly, looking at the younger girl. He hadn't noticed before, but somewhere in the past few years his Lily had become extraordinarily beautiful.
Thanks for reading, reviews are always welcome :)
