All My Life
*~* The Funeral *~*
"Oh my God." Lily said to herself, walking through the common room. She heard her friends call out her name, but she ignored them and kept walking.
"James is gone! James is gone!" She whispered to herself as she walked into her dorm room.
"He can't be gone!" She screamed when she landed on her bed. She didn't cry though. Just laid there, like she was dead also. Then she sat up, and looked around the dorm.
"He, can't, be, gone!" She cried as she hit her bed with her fists over and over again. She collapsed and started crying and shaking, clutching her pillow as if it were her life support. Soon, she fell asleep through the tears.
"Hey Lily, wake-up!" Someone said shaking her.
Why am I asleep in the middle of the day? She thought. Oh my Lord. James is dead! She remembered. Tears began to come out of her eyes, but she still looked as if she was sleeping. And why is this bloody idiot trying to wake me up when I just want to die, here, alone.
"Why are you crying Lily?" the voice asked.
"Just go away," she said turning over, not looking at the person.
"Why?"
"Because," she wailed into her pillow, "James is dead and I don't want to live!"
"I most certainly am not dead!" James said, lifting her out of her bed.
She looked him in the face and then let out the most awful scream you've ever heard.
"Ahhhhh!!!!" she wailed.
"Ah!" James screeched, jumping back.
"Who are you?" she said through clenched teeth.
"I-am-James?! You-are-Lily. We-are-friends." He said slowly annunciating each syllable carefully.
"But your dead?" she said, feeling his face.
"No I'm not?!" he answered back, more like a question than an answer.
"Are you serious?" she asked.
"No, I am," Sirius said from the doorway, "and what is all this bloody yelling about?"
"Yeah, why did you think I died?" he asked, pulling her in for a hug.
"Because," she said as she started to cry again, "because Severus said that you had gotten worse and that you died this morning!" She cried onto James's chest.
"What?!?!" Sirius and James both yelled.
"Lily, hold that thought, I will be right back." James said as he started to walk out of her room. Lily stood there, confused, yet happy.
"Sirius!" James yelled as he headed down the stairs.
"Yeah?" he answered back from Lily's doorway.
"Find priest and book him for tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Because," James answered as he went through the portrait hole, "I'm gonna kill Snape, and someone is gonna have to speak at his funeral."
"Will do!" Sirius said, running after James.
OK all of you people that HATE my guts for the last chapter… I'm really sorry that I did that to you, but I didn't think some of you would stop reading my story because of it! But yeah, as you can see, this chapter would have been 4 times longer, but a lot of people were either mad or confused so I figured I'd put this chapter out, to clear anything up. And as for the reason I didn't put an authors note is because I didn't want to ruin the surprise! But honestly folks, I couldn't kill James off! In the wise words of one of my reviewers, "hey? What about Harry?"
I can't just kill off the main character, I'm not that mean! Or stupid… But yeah, I'm glad everyone reviewed, and I'm sorry for scaring ya'll. I won't do it again. Well, in all actuality I might do it again, but hey, what are you going to do about it? Haha just kidding.
Tinkerbell: Thank you for having faith in me! I'm glad you like my story and please, keep reviewing.
Sirius' lover: Haha, loved your review. Was this update fast enough? Hope so.
I have a question, do you put james's or james'? I think its james' but I'm not entirely sure. Please email me with the answer, as you can see, I have been struggling with it the entire story! Ok, thanks for reviewing!
