Harryforeva: Thank you, that's so sweet! Yeah it is going to be two chapters for this story, but…you'll see next chapter…
Writingangel203: Moo.
Indiangurl: Awww, thanks! Here's another wedding chapter, so I hope you like it just as much! Oh, I really, REALLY want to see "Hidalgo", too! He's such a great actor! I've been praying that he'll be nominated for an Academy Award!
At last
My love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
At last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream
That I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill
To press my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
And you smile
And then a spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last
With each step Lily took down the aisle, James drew in a breath. It was as if heaven was walking towards him. He didn't quite know if he were alive or not, but he knew that this was real – as real as it could get. Lily took graceful step after graceful step as she slowly wandered down the snow-white path before her. She had on an elegant white strapless dress. The train was of a sort of transparent lace that fit over the white fabric. Strewn in the lace were figures of Lillies and roses. She was quite a site to behold.
As she stepped up to the alter, she winked at Mel, who sported a deep red strapless bridesmaid dress that seemed to flow as it started from the top hem, to the floor.
Lily and James looked each other in the eye. As they did this, all the years came flooding back: the fights, the names, the longing, the passion….They knew this was right. It had always been.
James opened his mouth and began to recite a poem as his vow. He had loved this poem for as long as he can remember…since he had met Lily Evans.
"There is a lady sweet and kind,
Was never face so pleased my mind;
I did but see her passing by,
And yet I love her till I die.
Her gesture, motion and her smiles,
Her wit, her voice, my heart beguiles,
Beguiles my heart, I know not why,
And yet I love her till I die.
Her free behavior, winning looks,
Will make a lawyer burn his books.
I touched her not, alas, not I,
And yet I love her till I die.
Had I her fast betwixt mine arms,
Judge you that think such sports were harms,
Weren't any harm? No, no, fie, fie!
For I will love her till I die.
Should I remain confined there,
So long as Phoebus in his sphere,
I to request, she to deny,
Yet would I love her till I die.
Cupid is winged and doth rage;
Her country so my love doth change,
But change she earth, or change she sky,
Yet I will love her till I die."
Lily developed small beads of tears in her eyes as they both lit the unity candle, symbolizing that they were now one. And after each breathless "I do", and each warm, loving ring, they kissed. A kiss that would forever be remembered.
-----------------------
Two years had gone by. James and Lily were now living in Godric's Hollow. It was a somewhat lonely place, but the atmosphere gave off a warm, welcoming feeling. This was home.
Lily and James had just received the greatest news: they were expecting. Lily was about four months pregnant, her belly only starting to grow. Oddly enough, Mel was pregnant, too. She was only in her second moth of pregnancy, though, so she had not yet begun to show. But there was only one worry in both of their minds: Voldemort. James, Sirius, Lily, and Melissa were all Aurors, and were all one Voldemort's revenge list. But they had a feeling little Harry would turn out just fine…
"Since last I saw you, you passed your O.W.L.S., Harry," Lily sighed, rubbing her stomach. "I'm proud of you. Mummy loves you, and Daddy too."
Lily wandered over to James, who'd been watching her intently. She embraced him and remained in his arms.
"I can't wait to see him grow," sighed James.
"Me too. Sirius and Mel seem pretty excited to have a godson on the way."
"They're going to make great parents, Lil, I know it. Can you imagine? Our children going off to school together, learning new pranks to pull on Snivellus…"
"Oh, James."
"What?"
Lily kissed her husband and rubbed her tummy for the millionth time. "He's kicking."
A/N: I know, I know, short chapter. But, I really want to get to the next chapter, so this is kind of rushed. Sorry, but it will hopefully be worth it! And, this chapter is PURPOSLEY short. Confusing, huh? Please review!
