We're All Together On This One--Or Are We? Chapter 3

James just stared in shock as Lily layed there, staring at him curiously. James was so happy that his vocal cords were on mute. After a few fruitless croaks, he said,

"Oh. My. God! Lily! You're alright!" he exclaimed, ecstatic.

"Who's Lily?" she asked.

"What? You are! Stop playing around," James said, hoping that she WAS just playing around.

"I'M Lily? Who are you and where am I?" she questioned.

"Hold on," James replied, tears threatening to stream down his face.

"Remus, Sirius, May!" James called quietly, gently shaking all of them.

"Wha?" Sirius asked sleepily.

"Lily, she's woken up," James said trying to be happy, knowing she didn't remember them.

"What?!" Remus screamed, standing up.

"Where? How? Lily-" he said in a rush.

"What are you talking about, exactly?" Lily asked trying to find out what was so great about her waking up.

"Remus, she doesn't remember," James said quietly but sadly.

"No, that can't be. Lily, do you remember me?" He said to James, then asked Lily.

"Ummm....should I?" Lily was completely baffled. "I know your name's Remus because he," gesturing towards James, was talking to you and said your name. But I have never heard of you otherwise."

"Oh my god. It's true. How can it be true? It's not possible..." he said to himself.

"It's not true! Lily, please tell me you remember me!" Sirius butted in.

"I'm sorry, no," she replied politely.

"But--" Sirius tried to continue but was caught by May.

"Sirius, the doctors said that she would probably have brain damage if she did make it,"May said from the back of the room, darkly.

"I just--"

"--didn't want to believe it," James finished for Sirius.

"Well...umm...."Lily said, trying to get a word in.

"Yeah, sweetheart?" James asked.

"Umm...Can I have some questions answered?" she asked, unsure.

"Sure, Lils," Remus replied, not used to seeing Lily this unsure of herself.

"OK...My name is Lily right?"

They all nodded.

"OK....What's my last name, exactly?"

"Evans," they all said at the same time.

"Alright...Where am I?"

"Angels Of Mercy Hospital," only James answered this time.

"Why am I here?"

"You got into an accident..." Remus answered, feeling hot tears in his eyes.

"What kind of accident?" Lily wasn't sure if she wanted to know or not.

"Well, you were diving into your pool and you went down too far and hit your head pretty hard on the bottom,"Sirius said struggling not to cry like the rest of the group, knowing they would never have their old Lily back.

"Oh," was all Lily said.

"I need to go tell the nurses that she's awake," said James, needing to get out of there.

"I'll go, too,"Remus agreed, feeling the same as James.

When both of them got out of the hospital room, they both broke down in tears, James crying the hardest. Remus grasped him a tight hug, gently rocking him, knowing this is what he needed. Remus stayed with him for a few moments longer until James slowly stopped crying and looked at Remus, blue eyes meeting brown. Remus had the same tear-streaked face as James and James understood why. Lily and Remus were so close. They were unseperable the first year they met. Lily confided things in Remus that no one--not even her mother--knew, and vise-versa. That was when it hit him. He loved Lily. (Not Remus...JAMES U MORON!!) Both he and Remus would have to start all over agin with their best friend...they had no idea how Sirius was taking it though. Sirius loved the old Lily. She was always smiling, full of laughter and joy, she could make anyone smile with the corniest joke ever, she was perfet to all of them...and they would have to start on a blank page.

Back in the hospital room.....

"I'm pretty tired...."Lily said to the black-haired boy that had his head in his hands. "Sirius, right?" Lily guessed, trying to lighten his mood.

"Yeah," he said, lifting his head from his hands, not even wiping the tears away, "that's right. You go to sleep then, okay?"

"Yeah....night Sirius, and please tell James and Remus?" she guessed again, he nodded, "Okay then, tell them the same."

"I will Lily, I will. Sleep well," Sirius reassured her.

She fell into a sleep that was silent to outsiders, but a huge tornado of memories that would make a claustorphobic wince to be her. Lily felt as if she were being smothered by events that were stored in her memory. She laughed in her sleep as she saw a memory of when the boys made Malfoy sing "Let's Talk About Sex" every time he opened his mouth to talk...especially when he tried to explain to McGonagall. Many things like this floated through her mind while she slept on.....and on.
