Chapter 11
A.N. There was a bit of shock when I said that she was Sybil Trelawney but I like to keep you on your toes. Anyway Elle is no longer going to be in the story just to let you know.
On With the Story…
Sirius awoke the next morning to find he was alone in his bed. He called out
"Sweetheart where are you?" When there was no reply Sirius got up and wondered around the apartment. He was just about to apparate to the Potter Mansion to see if Elle had gone to see Lily when he spied an envelope on the kitchen counter simply saying Sirius. Sirius opened the letter and began to read
Dear Sirius
I'm so sorry to let you down like this but I'm doing it for your own protection. When I told you my life story I endangered not only me and you but the whole Order and I don't want to see Voldemort win this war, believe me. If there were any other way I would have taken it. I've gone Sirius, I'm under a different name and nobody will ever be able to find me. Don't try looking for me because it will upset you even more.
I love you so much Sirius, which is why I've done this. Please forgive me and move on in your life.
Love Elle xxx
Sirius stared at the letter and in a similar way to Elle yesterday dropped it and one tear ran down his face. When James came to see Sirius later on that day he found Sirius just sitting on his sofa staring straight ahead, when he noticed that James was there he said
"She's gone James, gone." James, Lily, Remus everyone tried to console Sirius but nothing worked. He went into a breakdown and lived like a hermit. Then two weeks before Lily and James' wedding he changed. Sirius began to go out again, he got a hair cut and seemed to be back to his old self in every way. When Lily asked him about it he merely smiled, a sad smile and said
"She's gone Lily, she was only trying to protect me and she wouldn't have wanted me to behave like a hermit. Besides you and James are getting married in two weeks; how can I be sad on my best friend's wedding?" Lily smiled but because Sirius hadn't said anything else and seemed to be fine she didn't press matters any further.
Two Weeks later.
"Lily you look stunning, James is going to love you even more once he has seen you in it, so stop playing with it!" Ashleigh said trying to calm Lily down.
"Fine! Do you like the dress" Lily replied. Ashleigh looked at her. Lily was wearing a strapless cream dress, which was perfectly plain apart from the Lily sewn in beads in her bodice. Jewellery wise she was wearing a pearl necklace and earrings. In her hair it was piled up with tiny lilies (which had been shrunk by the hairdresser) weaved through and she was holding a bouquet of white roses and lilies.
"Lily you know I like the dress! And hey do you like mine?" Ashleigh twirled around showing off her deep pink dress with matching shoes, all the bridesmaids had the same dress just in different colours.
"They are gorgeous - Elle designed them before she left didn't she?" Lily asked managing to keep the wobble out of her breath. She had only just been reunited with one of her oldest friends and she had gone.
"Lily this is your wedding day and I've invented a new rule for weddings, no crying - unless you're really happy. Look its your cue come on!" For the tune Here comes the Bride had just begun and Lily began the walk of walks - the one up the centre of the aisle…
A.N. Next chapter the wedding ceremony etc. I know I know this is really short but next chapter I promise will be really long! Review!
