Chapter One

"Lilac please! I can't go! He's so much better than me!" Said a tearful Lily Evans (soon to be Potter).

"Come on Lils. Let me finish your hair and make up. Yes you will go." Replied her best friend Lilac.

"No I won't. I can't marry him." Continued Lily.

"Why not??? You love him don't you?"

"Yes I do love him. I do, with all my heart. But I can't. He's so much better than me."

"You can and you will! You love him and he loves you. And he doesn't seem to think he's better than you. In fact he thinks the opposite. He believes you are better than him." Reassured Lilac, trying to calm Lily down.

"But Lilac-" "Do me a favor and try to calm her down, Gabriella, Maria, Sarah, and you Genevieve. Come on Andromeda."

Andromeda and Lilac leave the bridal room. They go to the room where James is getting ready.

"Hey, James?" Said Andromeda,

"Yeah?" was James's reply.

"Is Sirius there?" asked Lilac.

"Yes he is. Why?"

"We need to talk to him for a moment." Responded Andromeda.

At this point Sirius walks out of the room. He says hello to Lilac by a quick peck on the cheek. "Whatsup?" Sirius asked almost immediately. Andromeda answered

"She's just a bit nervous. She's panicking saying that she won't marry James."

"What do you want me to do?"

"We wanted James to go and tell her that he loves her and that she's the world to him or something sweet like that, but its bad luck if the groom sees the bride in the wedding dress before the wedding, which at this time might not take place. Since you are the closest thing to James that we can bring into the bridal room, we want you to go in and tell her that James loves her-"

Lilac said, but her love Sirius interrupted

"If she doesn't believe you, what makes you think she'll believe me??? You're her best friend."

Lilac responded

"You're James's best friend. You will have to remind her of the romantic things he has done. Otherwise, there might not be a wedding and then I'll blame you, and your dreams of ever marrying me will be crushed. Will you go???"

"You know I will." Sirius then went into the bridal room. As he entered *Laura* and *Katherine* left. "Lily, what's wrong?" Sirius asked her.

"It's just that, I'm-I'm worried. He's so much better than me. What does he see in me??? What if he doesn't love me?? What if I'm a bad wife??? I don't even know why I agreed to marrying him!"

"Lily calm down. For your information: James thinks you're the most wonderful thing in this universe, he does not think himself better than you, you will make a wonderful wife and mother, he sees you for who you are; and he loves you for it. Do you remember when he proposed???"

Lily could in fact remember as though it was yesterday. She had finished her head girl speech. James had just gotten up. He was finishing up what they had written together. "…that is the imprint in which we will make on the world. Before I sit I have but one more imprint I would personally like to make before leaving Hogwarts." He walked over to where Lily was sitting and got down on one knee, and took out a little velvet ring box. He said "Lily, beautiful Lily Evans, I know over the past year I have come to love you with all my heart. Would you make me the happiest man alive and be my wife?" Lily then replied:

"Yes of course" and a gigantic grin spread over her face. James then stood up and placed the ring on her finger. He then pulled her into a passionate kiss.

Sirius had been watching her and could tell that she too was remembering graduation night.

"You told him you would marry him because you love him and he loves you. If you don't marry him it would break his heart, and he would be dead before the day is out. Which would break my heart which would break Lilac's heart which would break your heart. So do you see where that gets us??? Are you going to marry him or not????" Lily went and gave Sirius a big hug and says (while wiping tears off her face)

"Thank you. I owe you. Thanks for reminding me."

Sirius then gave her a brotherly kiss on the cheek, and started walking to the door.

"I'll send Lilac and the rest in okay?"

"Yes, thanks."

As all the bridesmaids walked in Sirius grabbed Lilac by the arm and led her outside.

"Lilac" he started "If she needs reminding tell her to think back to graduation night. I better go before James thinks I'm doing something rash. I love you. Bye."

Sirius then kissed her and went back to James. When he got back to James, James was thinking 'Where the hell did all the time go???' James then saw his best friend was back.

"Hey Sirius, is everything okay???"

"Oh that was nothing." Sirius answered.

"You sure Padfoot?" Asked James.

"Trust me, everything will be okay." Reassured Sirius.

Less then half an hour later, after all her friends and family (or so she thought) were sitting, and all her bridesmaids had been ushered down the aisle, even after her best friend Lilac had marched down the aisle, Lily walked down the aisle towards her new life as Mrs. James Potter.

The ceremony went very fast. Before either James or Lily realized the minister was saying

"I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."

Then James put his arms around Lily's waist and kissed her passionately. While they were kissing all their friends and family cheered. The remaining Marauders shouted various things such as "James and Lily forever," and "Go James." Lilac at this point sent Sirius a very nasty look, but he ignored it.
