Lily sat straight up, her breaths coming in uneven gasps. Everybody
in the compartment was looking at her with worried faces [except Peter. He
was looking at her in curiosity].
"Lily, are you alright?" James asked in concern. He could see the fear radiating in her eyes.
"I.he.it's." Lily was trying to get the visions of her parents out of her head.
"Lily?" Paige said in a comforting way. Lily looked around the compartment. Everyone was focusing on her. She forced a weak smile.
"I'm fine, really," she forced her smile to get larger to be more convincing.
[a/n: I know, I know. I HATE IT when people say "It was nothing," or "Nothing happened. It was just a." and then they say and excuse to cover up for something that happened. However, I WILL bring it up later so forgive me for doing what I hate in this chapter.]
"Lily," Alexia said, clearly not believing her.
"No, really. I'm fine. It was just a bad dream." The others were about to tell her that they still didn't believe her when a loud voice boomed over them saying "NOW ARRIVING AT PLATFORM 9¾!"
"Well, guess we should get going," Lily said as she quickly grabbed her bags and Celest's cage. She hustled out of the compartment before anybody could press the topic of her bad dream. After getting off the train and running through the barrier, Lily found herself face to face with her family, even Petunia. Lily flung her arms around her dad.
"Hey there Flower!" said her dad in a chuckle.
"I've missed you guys so much!" Lily said as she turned and hugged her mum.
"We've missed you, too, Pumpkin," Mrs. Evans said as she ran her fingers through Lily's hair. Lily turned to Petunia and nodded.
"Hello Petunia." However, Lily's greeting was only met with a snort and a glare, "Nice to see you too, sister dearest," Lily muttered under her breath. A loud gasp could be heard from behind them.
"Evelan?!" came the cry. Lily spun around and smiled. Standing before here was the Potter family. Lily's mom gasped.
"Rose?!" The two women ran up to each other and embraced in a friendly hug. Darin Evans and Herrold Potter shook hands and embraced in a brotherly hug.
"My, my. I never thought this day would come," Mr. Potter said as he smiled.
"The Potter's and Evans' are reunited," Mrs. Evans said with a joyful grin on her face.
From then, it was decided that the Evans and Potters would spend as much time with each other this summer as possible. Yup, life was good. Things would be just like they used to be. However, what they didn't think of was that as the years had changed.so would feelings.
