And That Means Forever

Later that night, as Lily was lying on her bed reading "Phantom of the Opera", a muggle book that he mother recommended, she heard knocking on the door. She got up and quickly pulled a jacket over her camisole and opened the door.

There stood James with his messy hair, and those hazel eyes, those eyes that she looked hundreds of times into with love in her heart; but as she stared at them now, it was replaced with hurt and anger.

"Lily!"

She slammed the door.

"Lily, you can't keep doing this!" he kept banging on the door.

No answer.

"Come on!" he kept banging on the door.

"You better stop banging or you'll not only wake up my roommates but the rest of the house!"

"Not until you get out"

Alexis stirred in her sleep, mumbling something that sounded like "make that person shut their damn mouth".

Lily gave in and went out of her dormitory, closing the door behind her.

"What do you want?" she snapped.

"I have to talk to you." he replied.

"As if I didn't figure that one out already. How did you get up here in the first place? Aren't boys not allowed to enter the girls dormitories?"

"True, but I'm a marauder, which means that I can find another way, especially to talk to my flower."

Lily rolled her eyes. "You wish!" she muttered.

"Lily, don't do that! Don't make us go back to square one, why are you so determined not to make this work!" he insisted.

"We can't make this work! Why? Because as I told you before so many months ago, because you're James Potter and I'm Lily Evans. That does not work! And don't do what James? What? Why don't you stop??! You do this to everyone, god, I was a fool to fall for you in the first place. You make every girl that you fancy fall in love with you and then you go breaking their hearts. But lucky for me, I'm over you. We're done."

James suddenly felt like he was ripping off invisible chains that had bound him from Lily previously. He looked at her coldly and replied. "I'm not going to try and convince you of anything, but just for your information, and I'm sure you've realized these past few days, and it may sound strange, but I'm not myself. I don't know why or when this began or whatever, and what I did that night, I can't even believe myself, because the last thing I would want is that ugly hag on me. But what I do know, is that I love you," he stopped for a moment and sharply drew in a breath, "I have always loved you and I always will, no matter what I do whether I am conscious about it or not, I will love you. And that means forever."

Lily stared at him, her green eyes as hard as ever.

"Good night." James said as he turned away, walking back to his dormitory.

Lily turned back, sighed, and walked back into her room. Sarah, Giselle, and Alexis were looking at her wide-eyed.

"You heard everything?" Lily asked.

The three of them nodded.

She sighed took her pillow and screamed into it, something that sounded like "Damn him!"

She turned back to her friends and said calmly. "I can't do it, as much as you want me too, and as much as he wants me too, I won't."

She crawled into bed and under her blankets, appreciating their warmth, because inside she was feeling so cold. As she fell asleep endless tears of emotion that she held back before came pouring out of her emerald eyes, but no sound escaped her lips; it hurt too much.


"Well done, Pettigrew. I must say that you have done exceptionally well for your first few weeks serving the Dark lord." Peter smiled smugly. "The Dark lord has also asked me to tell you to remove the curse in precisely 7 days."


"Remus, what about this one?"

James was in Hogsmeade with Remus helping him shop for a wedding ring.

Remus called one of the witches at the counter. "Excuse me miss, may I please see this ring."

"Good choice." the witch took out the ring and handed it to Remus. "This one is two 24 karat gold bands held together by diamonds." (A/N: Before Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston split up, Brad was designing this jewelry line, one of the rings was two rings, one on top of another held together by diamonds.)

Remus examined the ring, it truly was beautiful; perfect for Sarah! He thought.

"How much does it cost?" Remus asked.

"This one is $15,000, but I can make it 13, someone as young as you needs to save up, not splurge it all." (A/N: I have no idea how many pounds or euros or whatever that is, sorry!)

"Okay then I'll take it."


While James and Remus were shopping for a ring, Sarah, Lily, Alexis, and Giselle were shopping for dresses at Madame Abbott's Bridal Salon. Sarah piled dress after dress, and finally decided to try her ever-increasing pile of lace and satin.

"This one looks cute." Sarah modeled her dress for Alexis, Lily, and Giselle.

"You look like a frosted cupcake." Alexis said.

Her dress was lace, lace, and more lace, covering every inch of her body except for her fingernails.

The second dress was pretty; a strapless satin gown with ruffles descending from the waistline. The third dress was all chiffon, with bell sleeves that dragged to the floor, making her look like a puppy.

After the eleventh dress, Sarah came out of the dressing room, and all eyes were on her.

The dress had a low-cut, spaghetti strap top, which was all lace until her thighs, hugging her curves in all of the right places. The rest was all chiffon, coming out of the dress. Right on her love handles, there was a gold bow made of silk, complimenting her slim hips. The only way to describe this dress is by saying perfect. (A/N: To see the dress go on this website: )

"So what do you think?" Sarah asked, while examining herself in the mirror.

No answer.

"Hello?"

She turned to find Lily, Alexis, and Giselle speechless (no they are not lesbians), the other brides who came for their fittings were all staring at her jealously, and their fiancés were all staring with their mouths open.

After two minutes Giselle finally spoke, "If you don't take that dress I will bite you so hard, take the dress for myself, and seduce Sirius with it."

A/N: This update was quick, compared to the other chapters. I took my math state exam today (finally!) so I'll have more time, which means quicker updates. I thought I would enjoy writing this chapter, since I want to become a fashion designer, but it was really hard to describe the dresses and put it in words. I actually wrote this chapter on 2 days- it normally takes me two weeks. Many thanks to Monique Lhuiller- the dress is hers- she is by far the best in bridal! Anyway, don't you love James!!! I want to kill Lily too, but thing is, she entered her relationship very quickly, and before hand she despised him, but once she fell in love with him- well, love is blind. So when she saw what James did, lets just say she got glasses, and now they are back to square one, but Lily still does love him!! She just doesn't want to admit it to herself. R&R!! I'm almost up to 100!!
