Chapter 22 The Answer That Started It All
*******************!!!!!!!!!!!!!*****************!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!***********
"Lily, marry me?" ** Lily felt as if her heart had jumped up into her throat. ' He asked me to marry him!!' she kept thinking. ' I never thought he would." she thought to herself.
"Of course he would." Lana said beaming, and looking at her friend. Lily frowned.
"Lana, dear, PLEASE stay out of my thoughts." Lana shrugged and Arabella laughed. Someone cleared their throat, it was James still on his knee.
"Oh!" Lily said laughing. " Of course I will James!" She said and leaned over to plant a huge kiss and hug on him.
"To Lily and James," Remus said holding up his glass to make a cheers. Sirius looked awe struck though.
"Do you know what this means guys?" He looked slightly put out.
"Yea, Lily is will no longer be 'Lily Evans', she'll be 'Lily Potter.'" Remus said smirking.
"No.." Sirius started. "This is the end of the Marauders!" He cried out.
"No it's not!" James said looking abashed. " Sirius, we will always be the Marauders! If I'm married or not!" Sirius smiled.
"Hooray for Lils and Prongs!" he yelled, getting looks from the other people sitting around them. Lana smacked his head. "Shut up Sirius!" She said, trying not to bust into laughter.
Lily was staring down at the rock on her hand. James saw her and smiled.
"Do you like it?" he asked looking hopeful.
"No," Lily said looking at it. "I love it." She looked and saw him give her a lop sided grin. He leaned over where is lips were barely touching hers.
"I love you." He whispered onto her lips. He felt her smile.
"You too." She said and gave him a small kiss. They were looking into eachother's eyes when they broke out of the trance by a loud, "Ugggghhh!" they turned.
"Yuck!" Sirius said looking at the two. The others were laughing.
"Siri, Hun, why don't you shut your mouth before you get a fist in your face." Lily said. He smiled even more.
"Or a spoon full of mashed potatoes." James stated scooping up some in his spoon.
"You wouldn't." Sirius said looking from the spoon, to James, to the group.
"James don't we'll get thrown out!" Arabella tried telling him, but it was too late.
"I wouldn't huh?" James was saying. It was if it was in slow motion. They watched as they potatoes flew from James' spoon, across the table, and right smack into Sirius' face.
"James!" Lily gasped. She looked at the faces of her friends, all mouths in a perfect 'O' shape. She couldn't help it she burst into laughter. She heard a loud " Splat!", she looked and saw her new fiancé' covered in gravy.
"It's all gravy baby!" Sirius said loudly, then laughed so hard he collapsed onto the ground. Lana saw their waiter coming over to them in a hurried manor.
"Excuse me!" he said loudly. Sirius looked at him, covered in potatoes. James gave him a smiled, while he was covered in gravy.
"The manager has asked me to ask you to please LEAVE!" He said looking very angry.
"It's all gravy baby." Remus stated smirking at his friends. The group got up and went outside.
"Oh Lily, I'm so sorry they ruined your perfect night!" Lana told her best friend. But lily was laughing.
"Ruined? They made it even better!" She said pulling James into a huge hug. Lana rolled her eyes.
"Give me some sugar baby!" Sirius said chasing Lana around.
"Eeks! Stop it you stupid potato head!" she said trying to get away from her potato covered boyfriend. He finally caught her.
"I know you want me." He said smiling at her.
"Oh do you? Because I thought I was the all-knowing one." Lana told him wiping his face off. She kissed him on a clear spot on his forehead. " Now let me go before I slap you so hard those potatoes will be engraved into your cheek." She said laughing at him.
The group headed back to the girls' flat together. Lily kept looking at her ring, while James laughed at her. Arabella kept laughing at Sirius and Lana, while Remus just stared at the sky, smiling every now and then silently to himself. It was surely a night they wouldn't forget.

The next morning Lily woke up early and started getting ready. Lana walked into the bathroom to see Lily there, applying her make-up.
"What in the bloody hell are you doing?" Lana asked through a yawn.
"Oh, James and I are going to tell his parents the news." Lily told her friend, her face beaming more than ever. Lana smiled and sat by her.
"So you're really ready for this?" Lana asked her.
"Ready for what?" Lily asked putting on her eyeshadow. Lana looked at Lily as if she was pure stupid.
"Ready for marriage of course!" Lana said looking slightly annoyed.
"Oh." Lily stopped what she was doing. " Of course I'm ready, I mean I'm only 18 but it's not as if I'm getting married tomorrow! I love James.more than anything, with him I'm ready for anything." Lily said looking at Lana. Lana just smiled, as a tear fell down her face.
"Oh Lils! I wish you the best life ever! I want you to be happy.and just," she stopped and she looked depressed. " Lily, promise me you'll just live every day as your last." Lana told her. Lily looking kind of confused but smiled.
"Always." She said giving her friend a hug. **
When James got there, Lily looked her absolute best. She had her long hair hanging down, her make-up was perfect, as was her outfit.
"Dang Lily, are you trying to kill me!?" James asked her, hand over his heart. Lily smiled at him.
"Ready to go?" She asked grabbing a purse.
"Yep." He said and they apparated in front of a large mansion. It had to be the nicest house Lily had ever seen, even nice than Lana's.
"James, it's beautiful." Lily said looking it up and down.
"It's home." James said shrugging his shoulders. " Mom knows we're coming, but she just thinks its for tea." He said smirking at Lily.
"Will she be upset?" Lily asked, looking apprehensive. James just stared at her.
"Are you crazy? Lily, she loved you." James kissed her hand and took her through the gate. The gate was seven foot tall, black, with a huge 'P' on it.
"Where are we exactly?" Lily asked looking at the wonderful garden in the front yard.
"Godrics Hollow." He said simply walking to the front door. He knocked three times, and the door opened to show a small house elf standing there.
"Master James!" It squeaked loudly. James smiled.
"Hello there Rashal!" He said patting its head. The elf looked at Lily.
"You must be Ms. Lily," he bowed to her. Lily giggled.
"Hello." She said smiling at the elf.
"This way Master James, your mother is waiting in the tea room." The elf closed the door and headed down the main hallway.
"Tea room? Merlin James." Lily said laughing as he smiled and grabbed her hand.
"Oh James!"Came the voice of Mrs. Potter as she got up to hug her son. "And Lily!" she said pulling her into a hug too.
"Hi mum." James said kissing her cheek.
"Hello Mrs. Potter." Lily said smiling at her.
"Oh well sit down! Sit down, let's have some tea." She said as Rashal started pouring cups of tea for them.
"So, what's new you two?" Mrs. Potter asked as she sipped her tea. James let out a small laugh.
"Well, Mum, we. Lily and I." he looked as if he couldn't bring out the words. Lily saw this and stuck her left hand out.
"We're engaged." Lily said showing Mrs. Potter her huge diamond. Mrs. Potter gasped and looked at it.
"James- Lily- aw!" She pulled them into a huge hug and Lily let out a sigh of relief. " I just knew you had to ask her sooner or later James!" she said. James almost spit out his tea.
"What?' He asked her. She just smiled.
"Oh James, I saw the way you looked at Lily. I had seen the same look in your father right before he asked me." She said smiling at them.
"But anyway! So Lily, what kind of wedding do you plan on? This spring? Next fall maybe?" She was beaming with excitement. Lily laughed.
"James and I haven't suggest a date yet, but I don't think it will be this spring." She said smiling. James was staring at something by the couch.
"Holy Merlin! I haven't seen this in years." James said picking up an old picture. Mrs. Potter smiled. Lily looked confused.
"Seen what James?" She asked trying to catch a glimpse of the picture. James showed it to her.
"That's me and Sirius on our first day of Hogwarts. That's right when we were leaving." He stated. Lily looked into the picture to see and eleven year old James and Sirius smiling and waving, well.Sirius was winking.
"Always a charmer huh?" Lily asked pointing to Sirius. James laughed.
"He hit on a seventh year that day." James said through the laughter.
"That's Sirius for you." Mrs. Potter said smiling at the picture.
That afternoon was spent of Lily, James, and Mrs. Potter giving Lily a tour of the home, and talking about future wedding plans. Just thinking of the wedding gave Lily those old flutters in her stomach. *****!!!!!!!**********!!!!!!!!!!************!!!!!!!!!!!!!************!!!!!!! !!****
When Lily got home she dropped her purse onto the table and found a note from Arabella.
Lils- Hey! I'm out with Remus and I think Lana was going to visit her Mum. I should be home around midnight! Don't wait up! Haha! Be back later! Much love!
-Bella-
"Great.now I'm alone." Lily said out loud looking through a cabinet for some food. She heard a sobbing noise from the next room. She looked inside to see Lana sitting on the floor, crying, and looking at a Daily Prophet newspaper.
"Lana! What's wrong?" Lily said sitting by her friend. Lana looked up at Lily, clutching the paper in her hands.
"It's just the beginning." She said softly. Lily didn't even notice what was on the front of the paper. She didn't see what it said-
Lord Voldemort and Followers Come to Full Power!
More Deaths Have Occurred In The Wizarding World.
It was the beginning. Even though Lily had no idea what of.
