Chapter Fourteen
Severus woke up to the sound of feet running up and down the stairs. Lily was still in his arms, nice and warm. He kissed her forehead and she opened her eyes.
"Good morning, sunshine," Severus whispered. "Did you sleep well?"
"I slept brilliantly," Lily yawned. "How about you?"
"Never slept so amazingly in my life," he told her.
They got out of bed and put on their clothes for the wedding. Lily was in a lovely golden colored dress that went amazing with her vivid red hair. Severus was sporting a black and emerald tux with a gold tie. They walked out of the room hand in hand and down the stairs.
Mrs. Evans was waiting to ambush them with a camera. Severus and Lily smiled. They were finally allowed to step away from the camera and get ready to take their places for the wedding.
Lily was to be Petunia's maid of honor and Vernon had asked Severus to be his best man last year. They had become such great friends during the holidays. The song started and it was time for Severus and Lily to walk down the aisle. He couldn't believe that in less than a year, he and Lily were going to be walking down the aisle after everyone else.
They took their places at the front of the crowd, waiting for Vernon to walk Mrs. Evans down the aisle. Vernon's sister, Marge, was crying in the front row. A huge bull dog was sitting next to her. Mrs. Evans took her seat. Now it was Mr. Evans and Petunia's turn.
Petunia, though rather boney looking, was pretty in the dress that her and Lily had picked out. Severus was rather sure that Lily had done some last minute hair charm to give her gorgeous brown curls. When they got to the front, Mr. Evens placed Petunia's hand in Vernon's and went to sit next to his wife.
When they said "I do," every one clapped and cheered as they walked back down the aisle, arm in arm. It was a very beautiful wedding. Severus couldn't wait till his and Lily's.
