Chapter 11
Packing up, and Saying Goodbye
Snap! was the only sound to be heard this thursday morning. Lily had just finished packing her suitcase for the Christmas holidays. Lily couldnt wait to get this over with, she hated her father because he was continuously mean to her and just was annoyed by her mothers overprotectiveness. She didnt want to leave for one other reason though,....James, he wouldnt see her and she wouldnt see him for two agonising weeks. Lily sighed at the thought of this, she loved James, the only person that she had ever loved, and now she wouldnt see him for two weeks. She had no idea what she was going to do with out him.
Lily plopped down on her bed sighing even heaver, as she picked up the rose and the picture of James and sat them down besides her handbag so she wouldnt forget to put them in there. She then headed towards the bathroom to take a quick shower. The last thing she wanted to do was miss her last day of breakfast before christmas vacation. It took her about 10 minutes to get completely ready, as soon as she was dressed she hurried over to her bed and put the picture frame and the rose into her handbag. Then she went over to her door and opened it, and went back to get her bags, then she walked down the hallway hurriedly trying to get to breakfast.
" Hi, Lils," Emily said as she saw her friend aproaching the table
" Hi, Emily, Remus, Sirius,James, how is everyone," she said ignoring the fact that M.J. was over in the corner reading a book
" Good, great, ok," everyone replied together
" So, its the last day before we all leave for vacation," Lily said as she sat down besides James
" Yeah, I know, it will be a long time before I see your pretty face again," James said giving her a kiss on the forehead
" Prongs, come on, please, we are trying to eat," Sirius said playfully
" Oh, lighten up Padfoot, cant you see they're in love," Remus said playfully once again
" Yeah, really Sirius, dont be such a prat," Emily said slapping Sirius upside the head
" So, I heard about, you and, well,......you know.....not being friends anymore, I told her that since she was mean to you, that I was no longer her friend either," Emily whispered over the table to Lily
" Thanks, Em, I really dont know what I would do without you," she said in reply
" So, guys we dont want to miss the train now do we, and I want to get a good seat with Lily, and I'm sure you and Emily want to get a good seat, eh Moony," James said making Remus turn very red, he had asked M.J. out the day before and she happily accepted
They all got up from the table leaving M.J. by herself, picked up their baggage, then headed out of the great hall. James offered to carry Lily's stuff for her but she didnt want him to have to strain his self so she insisted that she carried it. Lily was so depressed by the time she got to the train that James began to think that she was sick.
" Lily whats wrong, are you sick," James asked as they stepped into the hallway of the train car
" Oh, sorry James, I was just thinking of how I really dont want to go home," she started " Hey heres an empty compartment, do you want to sit here?" she asked pointing out the empty seats
" Yeah,sure," he began" are you positive that, that is the only reason why you look sick?" he asked as she handed him her suitcase to put up above the compartment seats
" Yes I'm positive, dont worry about me I'll be just fine," she said as she sat down beside him
" Ok,.............you know I'm really going to miss you over the holidays," he said as he slipped his arm around her waist
" Yeah me too, I dont know what I will do without you being there by my side day and night," she said as she relaxed her head on his chest
" Don't worry, you will see me sooner than you think," James said " The holidays will pass by so fast you wont even think about Hogwarts,"
" I hope so, because I dont think I can stand my father for too long," she said sighing heavily
" Its such a shame that your father is so mean to you, you dont deserve that," James said with anger noticable in his voice
" Dont worry about it, hes going to treat me like shit no matter what I do," she said trying to laugh but failed horribly
" I hope to god he doesnt, if he does, oh god, call me and I will be there in a minute,'' he said clenching his fists
" So..do you want to go see if we can find........" James started to say, but was interupted by the sound of knocking on the compartment door
Knock knock
Come in," Lily said as the door was opened by Sirius, Emily, and Remus
" Oh, hi guys I was just going to ask Lily if she wanted to go find you," James said chuckleing at the conisodence
" Well, arent you lucky that we came along, you didnt even have to get up from where you were sitting," Sirius said chuckling at his bad joke
" Have a seat guys, make yourselves comfortable," James said invitingly
The five friends continued to talk for the remaining four hours, then suddenly they heard;
Attention all passengers, we will be ariving at the station in five minutes, I repeat five minutes,..that is all.
" Well I'll see you later Lils, have a great vacation," Emily said giving her friend a hug
" Bye Prongs," Remus and Sirius said and then left to get their bags
" Bye guys, see ya later, have a nice vacation," Lily and James said together
" Can you grab my bags for me,please?" Lily asked politely
" Sure, here you go," he said as he handed her the bags
" Thanks," she said blankly
" Well I guess its time to go, ready?" he asked her
" Yeah I guess,...oh James I'll miss you so much," she said dropping her luggage and flinging her arms around him, as if she would never see him again
" I will miss you too Lily, you mean everything to me, I love you," he said dropping his luggage and putting his arms around her
" I dont want to leave with out you, but I guess we have to, lets go get this over with," she said reluctanly
" Yeah we better get off of this train, we will say goodbye out there,"
Lily and James headed out of there compartment, and struggled to get out of the crouded train car. They finally got off of the train in an agonising 10 minutes. Lily instantly spotted her mother and father. Her mother was running towards her with her arms wide open.
" Oh, Lily its so good to see you, I missed you so much," her mother said lovingly
" I missed you to mom,.......but not dad," she thought to herself
" Come on, lets get a move on,'' her father said
" Just a second I want to tell James goodbye," she replied as she set her stuff down and ran over to James
" Bye, I will miss you, dont forget to owl me," Lily said as she gave him another hug
" I will miss you too, I wont forget, I love you Lily, more than you will ever imagine" he replied
" I love you too," she said giving him a quick kiss
" Bye," he said as he pulled away and started to turn
" Goodbye," she said as she did the same
