-:LETTERS AND DREAMS:-

"Home sweet home" said Rosiette

"I missed Hogwarts so much," said Lily

Celina and Rosiette followed Lily up the castle steps, into the hall and sat down. Right in front of the Marauders. Lily was in deep thought of the cave that she didn't notice until "Nice of you to join us"

"Potter" Lily hissed, surprised that he was in front of her.

"Well, if I didn't know better, I'd say you finally fell for us," said Sirius smirking

"Well, you don't know any better"

Celina looked quickly around for other vacant seats but found none. "For your information Black, there isn't anymore empty seats" she snarled.

They started their normal argument. Rosiette looked helplessly at Remus who looked helplessly at her. They looked at glaring Lily to smiling James to snarling Celina to smirking Sirius and back to each other. Remus shrugged and started eating. Rosiette looked back to her two friends and started eating as well.

The desserts appeared on the table but none of the four noticed. They were to busy arguing. "I see you haven't change. You're still like the girl that I fell in love with in first year"

"You haven't change either. You're the person who needs to change not me," Lily snapped at him. Her temper is rising and she felt as if she was going to explode. She ran out of the Great with James on her heels. She made a detour to the bathroom and she lost James.

"Please Celina just one date!" Sirius whined.

" No. What part of 'no' don't you understand?" Celina asked

"The 'n' and the 'o'" he answered grinning like an idiot.

"You are such an idiot!" she replied

Celina ran out of the Great Hall. Sirius noticed the food on the table for the first time and said, "Hey! Where's the roast chicken?"


Celina opened the door to the girls' toilet and heard muttering. She walked in and saw Myrtle and Lily discussing something.

"Hey, you know you can get out now," said Celina

Lily turned, "What?"

"He's not there anymore"

"Are you really sure that he's not hiding and waiting until we come out?"

"Well, I didn't see him on my way in"

"I'll go check," said Myrtle, she floated through the wall and floated right back through again after a few seconds, "He's not there anymore"

"See, I told you"

"Ok, it's been nice talking to you Myrtle. I'll come back again as soon as I have time" Lily called out

Lily closed the door, but not before she heard Myrtle say "That's what they all say" Lily and Celina walked to the Gryffindor common room. When they got there it was empty, the people are still in the Great Hall eating. They both walked up to their room. But Lily couldn't find half her stuff anywhere.

After five minutes of searching she cried out " Where could they be?"

"Maybe they're in the Heads dorm" joked Celina

"You're a genius!" Lily said and ran down the stairs

"I was only joking!" Celina cried out from her room.

Lily ran out of the girls' dorm room, left, right, left, right, right, straight. She stopped in front of two lumps in front of two empty portraits. She gingerly touched the lump on the right. Her picture appeared in the portrait behind the lump.

"Password?" asked the lump

"Stardust"

The portrait opened and Lily walked in. She saw a bigger portrait in front of her, and she also saw the picture. "What the hell" she murmured

"Like the picture?"

"POTTER! CHANGE THE STUPID PICTURE NOW!" she shouted in his face

"I can't," he said.

"I know you can. Change it NOW!" Lily shot him death glare.

"What will you give me in return?"

"No injuries"

"One date?"

"No"

"A kiss?"

"No"

" Please, it's just a little kiss."

"Fine" she gave in; she was just too tired and hungry to argue.

The picture change in to a golden heart with James & Lily Forever carved inside. Lily decided that it was better than what it was before and knocked on the portrait. "Who is it?" asked the portrait.

"Lily"

"And?"

"James"

"Password?"

"Popping Pixies"

"My aren't they funny?" laughed the portrait.

"Just let us in already," said Lily quickly

The door opened.

"Whoa! This is way better than the common room!" Lily exclaimed

"Go check out your room"

Lily went to her room, it was bare. She wasn't surprised. Dumbledore said they're supposed to decorate their own room using their imagination. Lily concentrated and got her dream room. An owl flew by and knocked on her window. Lily opened her window, took the owl in, untied the envelope and read the letter. It said:

Dear Lily,

I know you hate but I still love you with all my heart no matter what. You know and I know that we are meant to be together. I'm not forcing you to do anything. I just want you to know that no matter what I'll always be there, waiting for you. Always. Tell me if you change your mind about me. You will never lose my love even if you want to. Nothing will part us. Not even death. When you're in trouble just say my name and I'll be there.

Love from

James

Inside the envelope were a package and a picture. Lily took the package first; it was covered with wrapping papers. She picked at the papers and saw a beautiful necklace. Outside it was jewels that were shimmering yellow and inside was a picture of James and a multi coloured glass. There was a note squashed inside, it said:

This is a mood locket. The jewels outside are your mood and the glass inside is mine. Hope you like it.

James

'That was so sweet of him" Lily thought to herself. She took out the picture from the envelope and put it in a frame on her bedside table. She also placed the necklace next to it. She changed and went to bed. She dreamt of a hooded man talking another man in a raspy voice. "I need her, I cannot rule the world without her. The most powerful witch shall be with me. She shall not go with him. Bring her to me, before he gets her or it's your family's necks" the hooded man threatened. " Yes master" replied the other man lurking in the shadows.

Then everything was swallowed by the darkness. A crystal ball was floating "Do not unleash the power, the power of the terrible Jewel Elements. You will kill us all. Defend yourself from he who has an evil mind, run to he who has a pure heart. I shall guide you to our safety. The fate of the world lies in your hands".

Lily woke up terrified of what she saw in her dreams. She walked down the steps and sat at the coffee table. "Tea" she said. A cup of tea materialized in front of her. She took it and drank. Snoring from James's room confirmed that he was sleeping. She walked to the couch and snuggled in it. She fell asleep thinking of a certain someone.
