Chapter 12

The Begining Of Christmas Vacation

Lily, Mr.Evans, and Mrs. Evans all headed towards the muggle car, Lily's father wanted to get home quickly for some odd reason. He said it was because he was missing the news but Mrs. Evans begged to differ. Lily was already very upset at the thought that she had to go home, but she had been away from James for a hour and she already missed him.

" Mum, how much longer until we get home, I would like to get a head start on my........um.......letters to my friends," she asked trying to think of a way to say that she wanted to owl James, but say it so that they wouldnt suspect it.

'' I think we will be home in about 15 minutes, try to be patient dear," her mother said sounding slightly annoyed

" Okay, thank you mum," she replied trying to ignore her mother's rudness

Lily knew that this Christmas holiday was going to be very boring. With out James and with out Emily, everything was boring. So as soon as she got home she went straight to her room to start on the letters. As she began to write a letter to Emily she heard a soft peck on the window, it was James' owl with a letter, so she hurriedly went over to the window and let the owl in.

Lily took the letter from its case and began to read;

Dear Lily,

I am writing this on the car ride home, I already miss you so much. I knew that I would miss you a lot, but I never immagined that I would this much. Well anyway, I have asked my mum and dad if it would be ok for you to spend the holidays with us, and they said that they would be happy to let you come. Please ask your parents and owl me back, I hope you can come I miss you so much. If you can come, I will come get you tomorrow at 8:00 am by floo powder.

With All Of My Love,

James

Lily was thrilled and she instantly knew that she would be able to go because if there was one person that her parents liked it was James. So Lily got up from her bed and ran downstairs trying not to trip over the papers scattered around the house by her father.

" Mum, dad, I just got a letter from James, and he wanted to know if I could spend the holidays with him.......and his family of course," she asked sweetly

" Well, I supposed, what did his parents say about this?" her mother questioned

" They said that it would be fine," she replied looking at her father " What do you say dad?"

" I dont care just do your chores first," he said, acting like he was trying to read the paper

" Thanks mum, and dad, you guys are great," Lily said and hurridly went upstairs to reply to James' letter

Dear James,

I am so glad that you asked me to come, I miss you so much that my stomach is beging to hurt. Mum and dad said that it would be alright for me to come over. so I'll see you tomorrow at 8:00. I cant wait to see you.

Love,
Lily

Lily then attached the letter to her owls leg and said " To the Potters," and the owl had left. All Lily had to do now was do her chores, by the time she had finished her chores it was 6:00 so she decided to join the family for dinner. Lily ran downstairs and went straight to the kitchen, on the table were three sandwhiches and three glasses of water. She assumed that this was the dinner for the family so she took a glass of water and a sandwich and headed for the couch, to watch some muggle entertainment, it was called Television, or T.V.

When she had finished her ''so called'' dinner she went up to her parents room and said good night, and then went straight to bed. Lily wanted to get a good nights sleep before James came tomorrow.

Lily awoke at the smell of eggs and bacon, her favorite breakfast. Lily had noticed that her mum had been being much nicer to her, but she had no idea why, and it was begining to bother her. She got up from her bed and streched, then headed downstairs to start on her breakfast.

" Good morning Mum, good morning Dad," she said as she took a seat across from her father

" Good morning dear, I made you your favorite breakfast, bacon and eggs," her mother said as she placed a large plate full of it in frount of her and her father

" Thanks mum, that is very nice of you," she said eyeing her mother, wondering why she did this

" I thought that you might like to have a good breakfast before you go over to James' house," her mum said as she took a seat at the small dining table

" Oh, I see, thanks mum, thats a good idea, I dont want to go over there hungry," she said smiling at her mother

" Yes, dear, your welcome, now eat up, James will be here in an hour," she replied as she began to eat

By the time Lily had finished breakfast it was 7:30, so she had to hurry and pack her bags. She dashed up to her room and put everything that she might need into the magical " Fit All" suit case that Emily had got her last Christmas, which was becoming quite handy at the moment. She managed to finish packing in a matter of 15 minutes, leaving her with 15 minutes to get dressed and do her hair. So she walked over to her closet and changed into a pair of jeans, and a red fitted sweater, then she walked over to her dresser and but her hair into a lose pony tail, leaving a strand of hair hanging slightly in her face.

She checked her watch one last time before heading down stairs to wait for James, it said 7:52, she was just in time. As Lily was walking down the stairs she heard a slight bang, and knew instantly what it was, so she picked up her pace and began to run down the steps as fast as she could without falling. When Lily saw James standing there she flung her bag onto the couch and ran over to him flinging her arms around him, like she hadnt seen him for years.

" Oh, James, I missed you so much," Lily whispered into his ear

" I missed you too," he replied lovingly

" Are you all set?" he asked as he started to walk towards her bags

" Yep, I've got everything, let me just go say bye to mum and dad, if I dont they might have a cow," she said as she rolled her eyes

" Bye mum, love you, I'll see you this summer, thanks for breakfast," Lily said as she gave her mom a hug

" Bye Lily, I love you too, have a nice time, and be good," her mum replied, as if she was 7 and not 17

" I know mum, dont worry I will," Lily said as she headed towards her dad reluctantly

" Bye dad, see you this summer," she said giving her dad a hug

" Bye honey, have a good time," he replied nicely for the first time in years

" I will thanks dad," she said as she turned towards James

" Ready?" James asked as he picked up her bag and her owls cage

" Yeah, I think so, lets go," she said as she and James both steped into the fireplace

" Alright then, bye everyone," James said as he grabbed some floo powder and then said " The Potters residence," and then they were off into a spining rage and soon appeared in the living room of James home

" Welcome home, Lily," James said putting on the heart melting smile

" Ah, finally," Lily sighed," away from insanity," she said jokingly

Lily was so glad to be here with James, now nothing could go wrong, this Christmas was going to be perfect.
