"Damn, I am so tired. Why are we here anyway, Skye? Moody said that Death Eaters were meeting up here, but no one's here-"
Just then, 3 death eaters apparated into the room. Immediately, Skye and Lily started shooting spells and blocking spells sent back at them.
"Stupify!" Lily yelled, and the two death eaters sending a green jet of light towards Skye fell to the ground.
"Two down!" She called.
"STOP!"
One of the death eaters seemed to be taking his hood down. From the cloak appeared Mad Eye Moody.
"MOODY! That was mean! I thought that was a real attack!"
Mad Eye just laughed, "Congratulations, ladies, you've passed your first test: Able to work spur of the moment in a calm and cool manner enough to be successful. Good work. Now if you will please revive your partners that you stunned, that would be great."
He walked out, leaving Lily and Skye to find their mates waiting for them. James looked petrified and Sirius looked like he had been laughing.
"Enervate," the laughing girls said. James and Sirius woke up, but didn't get up right away. They looked at each other, smiled, and pounced on their girls, lip-locking them until they broke apart.
"I love you, baby," Sirius was heard by James.
"I love you, Sirius," Skye said back.
Lily and James quickly left them alone to feel for each other what Lily and James felt. Now that their shift was over, Everyone headed home. James' mother, Mrs. Potter, was nice enough to let her son and future daughter-in-law (she jumped to Lily, holding her and started babbling about plans when she found out) have the west wing, while she and her husband, Mr. Potter took the east.
They walked with arms around waists, until they got upstairs. It was awfully quiet, so James went to find his parents. He came back to find Lily, panting, and told her that they had to get to Dumbledore's office right away. His eyes filled with tears and Lily's with worry, they touched the old shoe, and were off to see Dumbledore.
Dumbledore looked into a sobbing Lily Evans' eyes. Her parents, not her parents. James' parents too. This couldn't be happening. Both parents were killed in less than 5 minutes. Apparently, the Evans' had visited the Potters to talk about the wedding. Voldemort had shown up to kill two of the best aurors in the ministry, but received two surprises as well.
Lily and James went back to James' house, where James sat at the kitchen counter as Lily opened a letter that was sitting on the table. She opened the letter, expecting a letter of sorrow and grief from a friend. Instead, she received a letter from someone that she had hoped not to hear from.
Lily, you freak, look what you did to our family! It's all because of you that our parents are dead now! If you weren't so completely abnormal then they would still be alive! I can't believe you at all. Consider yourself out of my life. I never want to see or hear from you again! I hate you more than you could ever know and I hope you go just like they had to. It's the least you could do.
Rot in hell, Petunia
Lily walked to the couch, James following, and cried on his shoulder. He read the letter, then let out a sigh of pain. He held Lily closely, and cried with her into a deep sleep.
When they awoke, Sirius, Remus, Skye, Ariel, Frank, and Alice were at their house, cleaning, making food, etc. Sirius, however, was sitting next to them, and so was Skye. Remus and Ariel stayed strong for their friends, and helped make the dinner while Frank and Alice cleaned the house for them.
James, still holding Lily, spoke first. "Padfoot? What are you doing here?"
Sirius looked down, bowing his head, then, rising it up again, he spoke, "We thought we could help you get over this by being there for you. Are you okay, mate? You know this hurt me too. Your parents were like my parents, since mine don't really count. I loved them, and I know how you're feeling. We're all here for you both, mate."
One tear slid town Sirius's face as Lily allowed James to embrace his best friend. Suddenly, a thought hit Lily. "Um, Sirius, could you excuse James and I for a minute?" She looked fearful and fatigued.
"Sure, we'll meet you in the kitchen. Ariel is an amazing cook," he walked out, starting to feel a bit better after seeing James and Lily.
"Um, James, I think we should talk."
James looked at Lily, he feared the worst.
"I think that we should move the wedding up to next month. I mean, if this keeps happening, there won't be anyone to come to our wedding!"
She started bawling over the mere image of her friends dying. James held her to his chest.
"Honey, I think that's a wonderful idea. The sooner I get to be with you day in and out, the better. I love you, Lils."
He kissed her hair softly and rocked her gently. Then, a voice could be heard from the kitchen.
"Oi! Love birds! DINNER!" James and Lily laughed at Sirius and headed to the kitchen, where they were greeted with good food, great friends, and ineffable love.
