A/N: Oke, this is the last and finishing chapter, but I'll be starting a
new fic soon. Hope you enjoy it.
Chapter 12
Lily and Bella where up in their dormitory. It was Valentines Day and they were changing for the Ball.
"So, you still won't tell me who you're going with?"
"Nope, you'll see, Bella. Now I'm ready and I have to go and see if everything is ready. See you."
"Bye."
Lily walked down the stairs into the common room. It was completely deserted, except for one student.
"Hi James."
"Lily! Y-you look beautiful."
Lily blushed.
"Thanks, you look nice too."
James was wearing a red robe. It was kinda like his Quidditch robes, only without his name on it. His hair was still messy, but he couldn't help that. Lily like that look, though she would never tell anyone this.
Lily was wearing a forget-me-not blue robe, her hair was hanging down (A/N: It was always in a ponytail.) and she had just a little pit of make-up on.
"So, can I escort you to the Great Hall?"
"But of course."
James held out his hand and Lily took it.
They were the first to arrive, everybody would be waiting in the entrance hall, but Lily and James would wait in the Great Hall and make sure everything was set.
~~~~~~
They were just ready checking everything when Dumbledore entered.
"Are you two ready?"
"Yes Professor."
While Lily said this, James pointed his wand to the doors and students came walking in. There were a lot of Oh's and Ah's.
The floating candles were replaced by elves, there were little cupids flying around and little harts were falling like snow form out of nowhere, but before they hid the ground, they disappeared. That was because neither Lily nor James wanted to clean up the mess the harts would cause.
When everybody was in, the doors closed again and Dumbledore spoke.
"Welcome to our Valentines Ball. I'd like to give my compliments to the Head Boy and Head Girl for their fine job redecorating the Great Hall. Now let the Ball begin."
There was an applause and music started to play. Sirius, Peter, their dates, Remus and Bella were making their way to James and Lily.
"Wow, Lils, it's great."
"Thanks Bella."
"Hé Prongs, thanks for forcing me to come. I love it."
"Thanks Padfoot."
"James, where's your date?"
"Right here, Moony."
"You are each others dates? How come?"
"Well, Dumbledore asked us to organise this and I asked if James was in. He said he was, if I would go with him, as friends, so..."
"So, James asked you out and you agreed without you even knowing it."
"That's right, Bella."
"Lily, may I have this dance of you?"
"Sure."
"Oh, before I forget, here."
James got a white lily from out of nowhere and put it in Lilys hair.
"It's beautiful, thanks."
~~~~~~
After a few normal songs, there was a slow song. James looked at Lily.
"If you don't want to dance at this song, you don't have to."
Lily didn't answer, but just got closer to James and they continued to dance and listen to the lyrics of the song.
The way our hands fit The way our eyes meet The way I melt when you're holding me There's not a piece that's out of place I can see the way I feel it's written on your face And there is no mistake
The way I tremble when you touch me The way I shiver when you say you love me One kiss and my heart knew Oh baby I was made to love you Every hour every minute With every thought I think you're in it Without a doubt I know it's true Oh baby I was made to love you
The way I talk The way you listen The way you know just what I'm thinking Long before I even say it I'll never understand it and I Pray it never ends But I know where it begins
The way I tremble when you touch me The way I shiver when you say you love me One kiss and my heart knew Oh baby I was made to love you Every hour every minute With every thought I think you're in it Without a doubt I know it's true Oh baby I was made to love you
A love this strong isn't bound by time or space Anything or place What's meant to be will be I was meant for you, you were meant for me
The way I tremble when you touch me The way I shiver when you say you love me One kiss and my heart knew Oh baby I was made to love you Every hour every minute With every thought I think you're in it Without a doubt I know it's true Oh baby I was made to love you
The way I tremble when you touch me The way I shiver when you say you love me
James looked in Lilys eyes and Lily looked right back. Their faces were slowly moving closer to each other, but this time both Lily and James were aware of what they were doing. Lily closed her eyes and James did the same. Their lips touched for a few seconds, but to them it was like hours.
When they parted their eyes never left the others.
"Wow."
"Yeah, wow."
"I've been willing to do that for a long time now and it's even better than I thought."
"James, could we find a quieted spot so we could talk in private?"
"Sure."
He took her hand and led her into the entrance hall.
"So, what do you want to talk about?"
"Well, you've always been honest about your feelings for me, but I lied to you. I even lied to myself, saying I hated everything about you."
"Were you going to?"
"James, I've been hearing a voice all through the year, saying I needed to give in to my feelings for you, that I loved you. I didn't want to listen to it, because I knew it was right, but I was afraid of my feelings..."
"And?"
"And now I've given in. I love you, James, with all my hart."
James smiled.
"I love you too, Lily. Would you be my girlfriend?"
"Why wouldn't I?"
"Don't know."
And they kissed again, but now the kiss lasted longer until oxygen became an issue.
~~~~~~
Wedding bells broke the silence. James looked in the eyes of his wife, then turned his head to see his best man and friend smile at him.
"Congratulations, Prongs."
"Thanks."
He looked around. There were Peter and Remus, Bella was standing next to Lily, to bad it never worked out between them. There was Dumbledore and McGonagall, and over there his parents and on the other side of the room Lilys parents. Everybody was smiling, the treat of Voldemort was forgotten, for the moment.
~~~~~~
"Run Lily. Take Harry and get out."
A green flash and Lily knew James was dead, but he would never get their son, even if it mend her death, nobody would hurt her Harry, nobody.
The last thing she knew was a green flash. Voldemort turned to kill the infant that was crying in her arms.
"Avada kedavra."
The green beam hit the boy, turned around and than hit Voldemort. What was left of him fled and Harry James Potter was now know as the Boy-who-lived, never getting to know his parents. He would have to live with his uncle Vernon, aunt Petunia and cousins Dudley. He would be miserable for almost ten years. Never knowing his parents were watching over him. being sad when he was miserable and glad when he laughed. Hoping that all would be well in the end.
The end (or the beginning?)
A/N: Hope you liked it. Don't know when I start my next fic, but it will come soon, I promise.
