An:// Okay, umm, what to say, what to say? How about.... no..... On with the story!

"Lily get out of the bathroom now." Karen was pounding on the door. It was 5 months after James proposed to Lily. They finally decided on a wedding date, November 1st, which was today.
"I can't. I'm sick, and I look like crap."
"You're not pregnant are you?" Lily ripped open the door.
"If I was pregnant then I wouldn't be able to fit in my dress and James would currently be dead."
"Then you ate some of Sirius candy. Now get out of your bathrobe and into something casual. You have to go to the church and get ready. James, Sirius and Remus are decorating the back yard. Peter is meeting Kayla at the Ministry building and bringing her to the church."
"And what are you going to do?"
"Make sure all of the bridesmaids are ready and that you don't barf up your intestines." Lily covered her mouth and ran back to the bathroom.
"I still think you're pregnant!"
"I'm not pregnant!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I can't do this!" Lily keep repeating, while Karen was fixing the veil into her hair.
"If you don't then I'm dragging you down the aisle. Your father won't be able to throw you away, because he'll be speed walking behind us."
"You always know how to cheer me up. Ouch."
"Sorry."
"Guess who just entered the church." Sirius said through the door.
"Who?"
"Your sister."
"She came? Sirius go get her." Lily stood up and adjusted the veil. The door opened to a tall blonde woman.
"Petunia, I'm glad you came. I was afraid you wouldn't."
"You came to mine when I didn't think you would. You look beautiful." Petunia started to get tears in her eyes and Lily started crying.
"I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have gone to Hogwarts. I should have stayed with you."
"No, I know how much that meant to you and you Karen." She added seeing the other blonde dabbing her eyes with a tissue.
"I wish you and James the best of luck."
"Did Vernon come?" Lily asked as Petunia opened the door.
"No, he didn't want to come."
"Oh, are you staying for the reception?"
"No I have to get home."
"Oh, okay."

The wedding march started playing and made everyone turn their heads. The head of the charms departments little daughter was the flower girl, and his son was the rind bearer. Next were the bridesmaids, which were Kayla Shirk, Karen and two of Lily's friends from Ravenclaw.
Lily walked arm in arm with her father, who was beaming like a mad man. Her mother was silently bawling in a tissue. James was grinning like an idiot. Sirius and Remus were standing with open mouths at the beauty in the white dress and veil.
James and Lily spent the whole time that the minister was reading out of the book, by being lost in each others eyes. Sirius had to nudge James to get him to say his vows.
"Lily, when we first met was in Diagon Alley, when I ran into Karen. I was surprised at myself that I could string words together. When you left Sirius ran up to me and asked me who the cute girls were. I forgot Karen's name at he moment because the only thing running through my head was Lily, and dungbombs." Lily smiled at James, and he continued. "I never thought that I'd get a chance with you, but look at me now. I'm the luckiest man on the earth if you say 'I do.'"
"Well James, I remember that day very well. I told Karen after you left that you were really cute, and she reminded me that I think most guys are cute. I was so happy when I was transferred to Gryffindor since I would be near you more. You can make any one laugh but saying only a couple of words."
"Lily Arnold, do you take James Potter to be your husband?" (sorry people, but I don't know the whole thing)
"I do."
"James Potter, do you take Lily Arnold to be your wife?"
"I do."
"You may kiss the bride."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"So, Mrs. Potter, when are you going to get busy?"
"Karen, is your only goal in life to tease me constantly, and see me pregnant?"
"Yeah, that and killing Voldy."
"May I have this dance?" James asked Lily, bowing real low.
"Sure."
"Think they planned to be married on All Saints day" Remus took Lily's seat.
"Well, Sirius wanted them to get married on Halloween, but it was too close to..."
"Yeah."
"We wouldn't want our favorite Moony to sleep through it now would we."
"Was Lily puking her guts this morning?"
"Yeah, I was going to owl Gina and ask if see wanted a painting to match her vase, but I still don't think she got all of the paint out of her hair yet."
"It was very amusing. And all you say is 'What are you looking at? Are you already done painting?"
"Am I too bossy?"
"If you weren't bossy, then where would we be?"
"Probably better off."
"Actually then Sirius would be in charge of the Marauders and we would have been expelled in 5th year." Karen started to laugh.
"So do you still have feelings for Padfoot?"
"Oh I love this song, dance with me."
"Answer my question."
"I'm planning, if I don't be a coward, on telling him how I feel."
"So how do you feel?"
"About him, or right now?"
"Both."
"Right now, I'm feeling a bit sick about what he's going to say. I think I love him."
"Hey look, Lily's throwing the bouquet."
"So? I'm not going to get married anytime soon." Karen and Remus watched as she threw the flowers. It bounced off one of the lady's heads and landed in Karen's arms.
"I wouldn't be too sure about that." Remus whispered in her ear, tilting his head in Sirius' and James' direction.
"Karen caught the flowers."
"You going to be the lucky guy?"
"She wouldn't marry me if I gave her a million galleons."
"You going to tell her how you feel?"
"Planning to. I'm going to ask her to dance, then pour my heart out." Sirius looked over to Karen, who quickly looked away.
"I wonder how she feels about me."
"You wouldn't guess in a million years."
"What do you mean?"
"You'll see."
"You love playing games with my mind don't you."
"Yup."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Karen sat at the table, watching the happy couples, mostly Remus and Kayla, and Lily and James dancing.
"May I have this dance my fair maiden?"
"Will the Puke Duchess get jealous?"
"Probably."
"Then of course milord." After dancing for awhile in silence Sirius finally spoke.
"Karen I have something to tell you."
"I love you." She blurted out.
"Really?"
"Yes. Why do you think I act the way I do?"
"I'm breaking up with Gina."
"Why?"
"Because I'm in love with you."
"You don't know how nervous I was, thinking you hated me."
"Me, hate the great and beautiful Hawkins? Yeah right."
"I told you. Three dates and you'd be back together." James said steering Lily and himself over to them.
"Shut up Prongs."
