Petunia Evans (soon to be Dursley) paced in front of the mirror, glaring at herself.
"You don't want her here. Remember she is a freak." She reminded herself, then she growled in her throat.
"Did you say something?" Isabella Evans asked.
"Mum, get Lily here now." She blurted.
Isabella had seen many things, and had expected anything except that to come out of Lily's mouth.
Petunia looked shocked of what she had just said. Isabella smiled proudly.
"Of course."
Isabella hurried out the door, and remembered the sad look on Lily's face when she had found out Petunia was getting married. What would Lily think now?
Lily had given the Evans an owl for Christmas, because Martin and Isabella had become very attached to the magestic birds. Now, the cream owl was at their house, and Isabella knew she would have to hurry.
Lily wiped a stray tear from her eyes, and she shook her head stubbornly. So what if her sister didn't want her at her wedding? James was right.
Alexandra was reading The Daily Prophet, a cup of tea next to her.
"Good Morn.. Whoa are you okay?"
Lily nodded swiftly. "Yeah, fine."
Alexandra shook her head, and raised an eyebrow. "Lily, I see that you don't want to talk about it,so I am going to drop it. For now anyway."
Lily sighed in relief, and grabbed a box of ceral and headed back to her room.
She threw herself down on the bed and opened the box of cerial and grabbed a handful.
Lily often wondered on why Petunia was so against her being a witch. She would have gloated if it had been her.
James had tucked her hair behind her ear. "Because you're different then 's jealous."
Lily had nodded, and had looked away.
Now she wondered, if there was something else. Did Petunia have some other grudge?
"Lily?"
Lily leaned up on her elbows. "James?"
"Hey Lils. Are you going to let me in?"
Lily pointed her wand at the door. It swung open and James stepped in, his eyes filled with worry. "Hey Lils."
"In all acuality, you already said that."
"Yes, but I know you aren't really in the mood to talk. Even though you should."
Lily looked away." We've went over this. I know I should live my life without her, but I am sad and depressed, okay? I just need some time to figure things out."
James sat down beside her. "Lily, there is a differance between taking time to figure things out and pushing people away when you are hurting."
Lily didn't answer, and James brought his arm around her and brought her to him. "I love you Lils, and that isn't going to change. You know that right?"
"Now I do." Lily murmured.
The two sat like that for awhile, and they jumped when they heard a tapping sound.
"Its the owl that I gave my parents." Lily murmured.
James stood up slowly and opened the window, and the owl flew in and dropped the letter into his hands, and then sat on the window ledge, and looked at Lily, while she slowly crowled towards the letter, and James picked it up and brought over to her, kneeling down beside her.
Lily broke the seal delicatly, and straightened the letter carefully. She read it slowly, her hands shaking.
Dear Lily(and James?),
I know you probably are very worried about this letter, and I have a feeling that James is reading over your shoulder(if you even opened the letter, maybe you threw it out.) But don't worry, because nothing horrible has happened. Something very surprising has happened. Your sister was very emotional when she woke up, and she insists that you must attend. I know you probably have mixed feelings about this, but it would mean so very much to your sister and me as well. James is invited also, (I don't think Vermin.. sorry Vernon will apreciate it, so maybe it is best that he comes with too). Besides, he will come anyway so he might as well have an invitation. If you could...
Find it in your Heart,
Isabella Evans, (Your beloved mother.)
Lily dropped the letter, and ran to her closet, swinging the door open, and searching hastily for clothes.
James smiled, then tapped his pants with his wand which instantly turned into a nice pair of khakis and then tapped his shirt with his wand and it turned into a casual plaid shirt.
Lily had changed into a navy blue coctail dress, and she had slid a silver bracelet on her right wrist. She was trying to put a necklace one, but in her hurry, she was having troubles with the clasp.
James walked over to her and gently took the chain from her hooked the clasp and smiled at her. "You look amazing.I recongnize the necklace."
"I need Alexandra." She mumbled.
James nodded, and they both walked quickly towards the door.
Alexandra was... preoccupied. James chucked, and Alexandra broke the kiss. "Need something?"
Lily looked at her feet, her face red. "Uh, If you are busy I can do it myself..."
James rolled his eyes. "She wants someone to do her hair. She has a wedding to get to."
Sirius rolled off the couch and Alexandra jumped up. "I get permission to do her hair! Yeah!"
Alexandra grabbed Lily's arm and pulled her away.
Sirius raised his eyebrow. "I thought Petunia didn't want her there."
"She changed her mind."
"As you know, I have cousins in America. One of them is a hair stylist, and she has taught me a few of them. I think with your hair I will do what is called Waterfall twist."
Lily smiled. " I'm sure it will look remember I'm on a time limit."
Alexandra smirked. "Good thing I'm a witch,then. I studied hair spells."
In twenty minutes, Alexandra summoned a mirror and handed it to Lily. She glanced at it, and nodded approvingly. She sprang up, and sprinted out of the room. She pulled on her boots, boots that went up to her knees and slipped her wand in between the boot and her skin. The boots didn't have a heel, but Lily didn't need one.
"Thanks Alexandra." Lily told her friend.
"Are you ready?" James called.
"Coming!" Lily called.
Lily opened the door slowly. "Petunia?"
Her sister turned around slowly, and she smiled.
"Lils!You came!"
Lily nodded and stepped in, shutting the door behind her.
Petunia gave Lily a quick hug, but Lily stiffly stepped back.
Petunia winced and turned back to the mirror. "I would have derserved it, you know. If I was in your footsteps, I wouldn't have come. I derserve to get married without my sister watching me."
"Petunia..."
"No! I do. And I know it won't help, but I am sorry."
Lily smiled. "I missed you Tunie."
The two women clunged to each other, tears silently streaking down their cheeks.
"PETUNIA!"
Vernon Dursley's voice interrupted the women's laughter, and Petunia winced.
The door was swung open, with the huge man clammored in the room, his face red and Lily imagined steam coming out of his ears.
"WHY ARE THOSE FREAKS HERE?"
"Vernon! They are not freaks." Petunia scolded.
Vernon took a step closer to his fiancee, and Lily instantly took a step back.
"THEY ARE TOO FREAKS!GET THEM OUT OF HERE!" Vernon roared.
Petunia looked at her feet. "No."
Vernon grabbed her shoulders, and shook her. Lily gasped and took a step closer to her sister.
"Let go of her!" Lily ordered, giving Vernon a shove.
Vernon growled and pushed Petunia away, making her slam into the wall and slide to the ground. Her dress tore, making Lily wince. Vernon spun around , stepping towards Lily.
James suddenly appeared in front of Lily, pushing Lily gently back.
Petunia slowly rose to her feet. "LEAVE!"
Vernon turned slowly to her. "Petunia..."
Petunia had tears falling down her cheek. "LEAVE. NOW. I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!"
Isabella hurried forward to comfort her daughter, while Martin pushed Vernon out of the room.
James turned around and twirled Lily's hair around his finger.
"Are you alright?"
Lily nodded, but she knew she would never forget the sad and horrified look on her sister's face.
