Finding love

Chapter 4

"I think you should go," Lily said softly after they broke the kiss. "This isn't right. You need to go."

"Oh, alright," James replied. "Bye, then." James said before getting up and walking out of the hospital room.

What have I just done? Lily thought.

Kissed James, that's what you just did. Replied another voice.

Great, the voices in my head are talking with each other. Isn't this just lovely.

Quite lovely if you ask me.

Oh shut up, I going to sleep.

With that, Lily rolled over and shut her eyes, but she couldn't sleep, all she could think about was how she felt when James had kissed her. Or did she kiss him? She wasn't quite sure anymore. One thing she did know was that she could let it happen again and with that, she fell asleep.

The following day, Lily was released from the hospital. After being released, she went home with her parents who insisted on her staying with them for a few days until she was completely better. The few days she spent with them reminded her very much of the summer she had spent with them the year before, only, this time, her sister was not there as much.

Lily was planning on leaving the next day. She had been there for a little less then a week. Tonight, Petunia and Vernon were coming for dinner. Lily was quite upset about this, because Vernon always acted as if she was some low creature that deserved to be treated like dirt and no better then someone's whore.

"Lily, they're here!" Mrs. Evans, Lily's mother, yelled up.

"Coming!" Lily called in reply. She took a deep breath and walked out of her room and down the stairs. "Hello," she said pleasantly as possible when she saw her sister and Vernon sitting in the living room.

"Hello," her sister and Vernon replied together. The pair looked quite the opposite of the other. Vernon was on the short side and quite round. Petunia was tall and thin. What one didn't have then other made up in double, that is except in the angrier and their detest for Lily.

"Shall we go to the dinning room and eat?" Mrs. Evans asked. The other four people in the room nodded and followed her into the living room. Lily then helped her mother carry the rest of the food into the dining room.

"So, Vernon how is your job at that drill factory going?" Mr. Evans asked.

"Quite well, I hope to have a top position by the end of next year." Vernon replied.

"What's it called again?" Mr. Evans asked.

"Grunnings," Vernon replied.

"Have the two of you made any more plans for the wedding." Mrs. Evans asked.

"Yes, actually, we are done. Now all we have to do is wait for the day to come." Petunia explained.

"I bet you're excited." Lily said.

"Quite, I'm happy everything went as it was supposed to for me, unlike some engagements." Petunia said.

"Well, sometimes you just can't help that." Mrs. Evans said speaking up quickly.

After that they went off the subject of weddings. The continued their meal talking of other things. Finally, but not soon enough for Lily, the dinner was over and Petunia and Vernon left. Lily walked quickly up to her room so that she could be away from her parents.

Lily fell asleep shortly after she had gotten up to her room. The next morning she packed her things and used the floo network to get back to her flat. She then quickly unpacked her things.

After she had finished unpacking, she decided to sit down and read a few of the advanced spell books she had found at the shop. While she was reading, a head popped out of her fire place.

"Hello Remus." She said when she looked up to see who it was.

"Hello Lily." Remus replied.

"What do you want?" she asked as she walked over to sit in front of the fire place.

"Can't a friend just say hi?" Remus asked.

"I know you to well Remus, you look determined. What do you want to ask me?" Lily asked.

"Well, there is something I wanted to ask you. What happened between you and James after everyone left? I know something happened, but James isn't spilling. Did you two get back together?" he asked.

"Of course not! Nothing happened that's worth telling." Lily replied.

"So something did happen?" Remus asked.

"I'm not answering that." Lily replied smiling. "I have to go. I'll… er… talk to you later."

"Bye Lils," Remus said.

"Bye," Lily said.
