A/N- Sorry, I have to write a bit about Amy and Remus. Don't worry, more
Lily and James stuff soon (a little in this chapter) I just needed to set
something up with Amy and Remus to go along with the end of the story
(which won't come for a while)!! Don't kill me for not doing as much Lily
and James action, it is coming, I can guarantee it!!
Remus didn't know what to say or think of the situation.
So he did the only thing he could do; he continued to kiss Amy.
He felt her tense nervously as he brought his hands to her hips. He kissed her harder as if to tell her that everything was going to be okay.
Amy didn't get the message. She pulled away.
Remus sighed, he had forgotten how much he loved her.
Forgotten was such as strong and painful word.
No, he hadn't forgotten her, just misplaced her for a while.
"Remus..."
He put a hand up to her red lips to silence her. "I know Amy."
"I am sorry, Remus. I acted terribly last year."
"You acted like everyone else, Amy," he whispered.
"I don't know why I acted the way I did."
"I do, trust me, I do. It was partially my fault. I shouldn't have waited so long to tell you," said Remus feeling his eyes begin to burn with tears.
"I don't know why it took me so long to see that it shouldn't matter. I guess I was just so shocked at the news," Amy cried.
Remus pulled her into a hug. "Sometimes you need to feel how certain things feel to get the point," Remus laughed. "That didn't make any sense did it?"
He heard Amy laugh, something he hadn't heard in so long. Remus could help but smile. "God, I missed you so much Amy," he thought out loud while taking in the scent of her hair.
"I missed you too, Remus, every damn day," she replied. "I missed your arms around me, your gorgeous eyes," she said now looking at him, "your soft loving lips," she said tracing them with her fingers, "your hair..."
Remus laughed as her fingers stroked his hair.
"...your laugh..."
Remus held her tighter. "I missed you more than you can imagine. The way we used to curl up together under that oak tree on the grounds and watch the sun set behind the lake. The way you made me laugh and feel happy. Your soft skin," he said while stroking her cheek causing her to smile, "the dimple on your left cheek when you were smiling at me, the way your eyes would light up when I looked at you..."
His voice trailed off and the smile left his face. "What?" Amy asked wiping away her own smile.
Remus grabbed her hands in his. "What about Sam?"
Amy brought her face closer to his. Her lips were a whisper from his.
Remus' heart was pounding for some reason he couldn't fathom. He could see the unshed tears shining in her eyes. These tears were full of anger, fear, but most of all hurt. Remus wiped away a tear as it fell from her eye.
"Sam left me," she whispered as her voice began to break.
"Oh," was all Remus could say. Part of him was happy, Amy was all his if they chose to go down that road again, but part of him was afraid; was she ready to leave Sam?
The space between them disappeared as their lips were reunited again.
Remus felt Amy's hands move up his arms and to his neck. He automatically began to outline her lips with his tongue. Amy allowed it in with a feeling of relief. This was the way things were supposed to be.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"James, stop it," Lily moaned sleepily kicking her husband.
James gasped. "What was that for?" he asked groggily.
"Stop poking me!" she said angrily.
"Lily, I've been asleep."
Lily felt a jab in her stomach once again and she understood. "Oh my gosh!"
"What?" James asked sitting up.
Lily grabbed his hand and brought it to her stomach. James gasped in surprise.
Something poked him.
"Is that...Rose?" he asked looking bewildered.
Lily nodded and smiled. "Quidditch player, you think?" she laughed.
"Definitely," James said as he tenderly kissed Lily. "And a damn good one I'd bet," he said breaking away for a slight second with his trade mark grin on his face. James rolled back onto his back and fell asleep easily fell asleep. His daughter was going to follow in his footsteps.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Remus awoke in the morning and found his arms wrapped around Amy. He sighed and smiled to himself; things were back to the way they were supposed to be. He kissed her head and she moaned in her sleep. Remus propped himself up on his elbow and watched her as she slept. Her chest moved up and down at a steady pace, her face was calm and unconcerned; her beautiful brown hair framed her face. She was perfect.
Remus knew he was lucky to have her and that this time she wasn't going to leave him. They had had a talk last night about everything that had been happening. Amy spilled her deepest fears and concerns to Remus and he sat and listened, saying the right things at the right times. He even spilled some of his fears and secrets to her.
He decided one thing for certain last night. He wasn't going to keep any more secrets from her, not a single one. Secrets can be good when you can use them to your advantage, but in the end all they do is hurt people.
Amy's eye lids fluttered open and she sighed when she saw Remus' blue eyes looking down at her. Amy smiled as he kissed her forehead. Life was good and nothing could ruin it.
And this time, Amy guessed right.
A/N- Another shorter chapter with hardly any Lily and James sobs. Sorry, more with L/J in the next chapter, promise!!!!!
