Chapter 24 The Crossing of Wands
******!!!!!!!!!!*********~~~~~~******!!!!!!!!!!*****~~~~~~*****!!!!!!!!!!!!! ******
" It really is amazing how fast eight months can pass." Lily said putting some makeup into a bag.
"I know!" Lana chimed in. " Can you believe it that tomorrow night you will no longer be Lillian Rose Evans?" she said with a smile. Arabella laughed.
"I can hear the little kids now. ' Mrs. Potter! Isn't your husband the famous auror who is after He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named?" Lana and Bella cracked up. Lily just stood there grinning.
"Mrs. Black! Isn't your husband the infamous bloke of an auror who still acts like he's 15!?" Lily said in a little girl voice. Lana stopped laughing.
"Who cares if he acts like he's 15? He's only 19 for magic's sake!" she cried throwing a pillow at Lily. Lily laughed. " And he hasn't even asked me to marry him!"
"It's only a matter of time dear, only a matter of time." She said walking out of the room. Arabella was trying not to laugh when they heard Lily call from the other room.
"Ok! I think I have it all! Makeup, dress, shoes, wand, ring, and my personals!" Lily said coming back into the room.
"You guys ready to go to the Potters'? I think the guys are ready for the rehearsal."Bella said picking up a bag.
"You ready for this Lily?" Lana asked her smiling.
"Ready as ever." Lily said. And with that they apparated to the Potters'.
*****!!!!!!!!!!!*********!!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!** ***!!!!!!**
The wedding was planned to take place in the Potters' back yard. There was lovely garden, fountain, and millions of white lilies there. They had asked Albus Dumbledore to dot he ceremony, and there were people coming from all over to witness the wedding.
The girls arrived to see the Marauders, all them to be exact, standing on the front porch laughing hysterically.
"Some things never change." Lana said as she rolled her eyes. Lily laughed.
"Hey! Peter's here!" she said as she rushed to be her groom-to-be.
"Hello gorgeous!" James said as he swooped Lily into his arms.
"Hi." She said as she kissed him. Mean while, Sirius was hugging Lana.
"Hey baby." He said as he stroked her hair. She giggled.
"Bonjour." She said kissing his nose.
"Don't go all different language shit on me Lana." Sirius laughed. Remus looked at Bella.
"Hey." He said giving her a hug. She had noticed he had been acting entirely to strange lately.
"Hi." She said returning the hug. " What's wrong?" She asked him. But he just smiled.
"Nothing." He said as he gave her kiss on the cheek. Peter stood there all alone. Receiving small hello's form the girls.
The rehearsal went well. Dumbledore couldn't be there that night because the teacher's had just arrived back at Hogwarts for the new term. James had noticed his palms became very sweaty as he exchanged vows with Lily. Lily noticed the same with herself.
That night she was sitting on her bed. She was thinking about the wedding, about her parents, about what would happen if she had a child.
"Why the hell am I doing this?" She asked herself out loud.
"Because you love him." Came a voice. Lily jumped and saw Sirius walking in.
"Oh hey." She said sitting back down, her heart pounding. He smiled at her.
"You're doing this because you love him Lily." Sirius said taking her hand and patting it.
"I know I love him.I'm just so nervous." She said through a small smile.
"And you think James isn't? Lily, I've never seen him so nervous before! He's not sweating in there- he's raining." Sirius said smiling at her. She let out a small laugh. Sirius saw he hadn't helped much so he continued.
"Lily, James loves you. I know he does. You're his life, his everything. Lily, without you James wouldn't be who he is! He used to say your name in his sleep, and I bet he still does now. I know you're scared, but he is too! You guys are going to get through this together, you have us! You guys are going to get married, be very rich, and have loads of little James' running around the small mansion." Sirius said the last part with a laugh. " Small mansion- you get it?" He was laughing hard now. Lily rolled her eyes.
"I don't get it, no. But I thank you for reassuring me." She said as she hugged me. "You're my protector Sirius, and you'll be the protector of my children as well." She looked at him and he smiled. " Be the godfather of my children Sirius, will you?" He was so excited.
"'Course I will!" he said smiling. "Now get some sleep, you have a long day ahead of you." He kissed her forehead and left her to her thoughts. Lily lay down and shut her eyes, because tomorrow her dreams would come true.
********!!!!!!!!!********!!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!!*******!!!!!!! *******!!!
The next morning was hectic. There were hundreds of little house-elves running around the house putting up flowers, setting up chairs, preparing dinner. Lily sat in her room for a while when James knocked on the door.
"Lils?" he asked through the crack. " Are you awake?" he asked her.
"Yea." She said not getting up. She was stretching when she heard something hit the door, a very loud bump.
"Shit Lana! What are you doing!?" Lily heard James' voice.
"You can't see Lily until tonight!" She heard the voice of her best friend.
"I wasn't going to bloody look at her! I was talking to her!" James yelled.
"Oh, hehe, sorry." Lana said as she opened the door barely. Lily laughed. "I'm coming in Lily!" Lana said and she squeezed through the opening so James couldn't see in.
"Lana!" James said loudly. She rolled her eyes.
"Bloody hell James! Go play with Sirius! We have a long day ahead of us!" she cried as she turned to face Lily.
"Good morning glory." She said as she sat on the end of the bed. Lily laughed.
"Hey." She said through a yawn.
"Do you realize that today is THE day, I'm talking THE one. The big day, the whole enchilada, the- dang I want an enchilada.anyway." She looked at Lily and smiled.
"I'm ready for anything. Bring it on." Lily said throwing her blankets in the air and rolling out of bed.
"That's my girl!" Lana told her. " Let's get some food, then we can start to get you ready." She said beaming.
"What time is it?" Lily said pulling on a robe.
"About 2:30 in the P.M." Lana said.
"What!?' Lily cried. " I'm getting married in less than 4 hours!?" She yelled. " Why didn't you wake me up!?" She was heaving. Lana let out a nervous laugh.
"On the other hand, let's skip lunch and start getting ready!" she said pulling Lily into the 'Bride's Room'.
Three and half-hours went quickly for Lily, as it did for James. Before she knew it, it was 5:45 p.m. and she would be walking down the isle with Mr. Scruptings giving her away in less than fifteen minutes.
Lily's gown was gorgeous. It was sleeveless and fit tight at the top, when it reached her hip it flowed out, like a princess gown. It has white beaded flowers all over it, with small diamonds on the top. Her red hair was pulled back and she had curls framing her face. She was idol bride. Lana and Bella looked wonderful as well. Lily stood there counting down.until she would meet her future husband.
******!!!!!!!!!!**********!!!!!!!!!!!!!**********!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*******!! !*****
Lily heard the music start as Mr. Scruptings walked her outside.
"Are you ready?" he asked her smiling.
"No." Lily answered honestly, her stomach was rolling, and she could major butterfly's she cursed them silently.
"You'll do fine, you look magnificent." He told her. She smiled.
"Thanks." She was shaking as the walked towards the path and guests. Lily could see Dumbledore standing at the end; he was wearing a purple robe that held two wands meeting eachother across the front. She saw Lana, and Bella standing to her left, and James, Sirius, and Remus on her right.
There were fairies across the top of the trees, millions of them, for a source of light after dark. Lily was trembling as walked down, the music was blocked out she met James' eyes.
James was staring at Lily as she walked down. When he first saw her, his jaw almost hit the ground. She was beautiful, no doubt about that. It was like his vision was impaired. Instead of seeing a 19-year-old Lily walking down the isle, he was an 11 year-old Lily.He heard voices.
"Hi, I'm James Potter." "I'm Lily Evans." Came the voice of a little girl.
James then saw a 14 year old Lily, and more voices.
"James! Please stop picking on Snape!! He doesn't mean any harm!" "Are you crazy Lily?" James realized was the voice of his 14-year-old self.
James then saw a 17 year old Lily and heard more voices yet again.
"I love you Lily." " I love you too James."
Everything came back to normal and James shook his head slightly. Flashbacks of his memories were not something he needed right now. He was nervous enough without them. Before he knew it Lily was at his side, and Dumbledore was talking.
"Witches, Wizards, dear friends. We are gathered here today to witness a marriage I believe it meant to be. James Potter and Lily Evans, to be united in perfect matrimony, by love and magic. If anyone here sees a reason for these two to not be wed, please speak or forever hold your peace." He paused as nobody said anything.
"No? Then Let's begin the crossing of wands," he said. Lana approached Lily's side and winked at her, and brought out her wand. Sirius did the same with James.
"Now, Let's begin. James, take your wand in your wand hand and point in diagonally up, Lily do the same. Now James repeat after me, 'Lokeans Eternal,'" As James did this, a red light shot out of the end of his wand. " Lily, do the same." As Lily recited this incantation a blue light shot out of her wands.
"Now, Lily and James, make the lights meet." Dumbledore instructed. As they did this Lily felt a sensation go form her hand, all through her body. James felt the same. Dumbledore smiled at them " That was the crossing of wands, you are both now bound by magic, now for the vows. James you first," James nodded and faced Lily.
"Lillian Rose Evans, you are my everything. You are the air I breathe the light I seek, and love I need. I don't think I could ever survive one single day without you being mine. Lily ever since we first met, I knew I wanted you and only you. I want us to have children together, I want us to grow old together, I love you Lily." James placed a ring on Lily's finger. A tear slipped down her cheek.
"Now Lily," Dumbledore nodded towards her. Lily nodded.
"James, just your name makes she shiver. I love you more than anything. I can't describe how I feel for you, because I don't think there is a definition for how I feel. I love you and everything about you. I thank my stars every night that they sent me you." Her voice broke into a whisper. " James, if I didn't have you, I don't think I'd be here, in this world. You've helped me through so much. I love you, I need you, you complete me, James." She finished and he kissed her hand. Dumbledore was grinning, eyes twinkling. Lana was sobbing, and it looked as if even Sirius and Remus had let a few tears slip.
" Ladies and gentlemen, witches and wizards, I now give you wife and husband, Lily and James Potter!" He began clapping, as did the guests. James leaned in and kissed Lily. This kiss was unlike anything Lily had ever felt she even imagined she could smell the kiss, and it smelt like roses.
**
This is what they had both wanted for over seven years. It was no longer Lily Evans and James Potter, boyfriend and girlfriend. They were now husband and wife, they now shared everything. It was the very beginning of Lily and James Potter.
